End of Season Not just that but some of our loans have been impressive. Peng, Moreira and Gregory helped Bournemouth win the Championship and Young won the Scottish Cup. All I see is money though as I'm willing to sell all 4 of them . We lost nearly a 1million followrs due to the FA Cup loss? . I think we're back at being the biggest club in the world. I'm not sure what the summer will hold. I have loan players due back I'm happy to move on. I might let Mitrovic stay for a season to see if he can kick on and let Pitchford move on. Youth players MacDonald, Gregory and Moreira will be allowed to move on. If I get the right money, Peng, Mendouga, Young and Pitchford can go. I might let Martinez move on as bringing in nearly 50mil for a backup GK might be worth it, though my 3rd GK needs to go out and play to improve so we'll see. I'm not sure what to do about Hojlund due to his wage vs age but we've also massively missed him. A ton of people are interesed in Quiroga but unless I can find a replacement he won't be leaving. It might be a big summer, I do feel we could do with some new blood, especially uptop. It's been a good season, we need to be a bit more solid but we've also had quite a few injuries. It's a big shame about the FA Cup Final but we still did a treble. I wonder if we'll hear anything about the stadium. We're about to enter season 13 and I'm still excited what's to come .

Champions League Final I upset my team it seems . I said it's a game we should be winning and supposedly we're not on Spurs level and according to pre-match Spurs are favourites. We've won our last 4 games against Spurs and finished 30 points above them in the league . Will it be different because we're playing them in Germany? Nah . The line ups: Juliao and Pitchford make the bench but they have knocks. Alot of my players aren't fully fit but I know we can beat Spurs! First half: Spurs start the Champions League Final. 15th minute: Kjaergaard tries a 25 yarder freekick and Robledo manages to tip over. What a strike! Spurs with the corner, Mannsverk swings in and Tremble heads out. Chol-Min picks up, we clear. 22nd minute: Tremble goes on a run, crosses and Hubana heads over. 45th minute: Duranville hits in a corner and Kjaegaard heads in but Zedda is straight infront of Robledo and it's called for offside. Second half. The Millers kick off and need to play their own game! 61st minute: Kimble replaces Lele. 70th minute: Tapia is on for Becerra. Flores is being replaced by Pitchford and Aime replaces Boxall. There's been no quality in this game! Vilela replaces Hubana and Juliao replaces Biffi as we enter extra time. First half extra time: Time to try my attacking tactic as this game has nothing happening. 107th minute: Pitchford hits in a corner, it's cleared, it's played back to Pitchford, he dribbles into the box and fires in but he's offside.. is he? I don't know about that time ref! 114th minute: We're down to 10 as Kimble is injured. It's pens, what a terrible game . We take first. Juliao steps up... it the corner! Bergvall.. Robledo saves! Phillips... smashes into the corner! Sarr... smashed past Robledo! Vilela... sends McKenna the wrong way! Paez... cheeky pen, it's in! Aime... smashed down the middle! McKenna dove! Manioo... Robledo saves!!! WE'RE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE WINNERS. TWO IN A ROW!!! FOUR TIMES IN SEVEN YEARS!!!

FA Cup Final I have 4 main strikers, 2 are out and 1 has a knock. We've won the last 3 FA Cup Finals and I'd love to make it 4 but I don't think we're favourites this time. Last time we faced West Ham we did batter them but we ended up drawing, if we improve our finishing maybe we will win this. Line ups: West Ham have such a good team. Silveira is the best CB in the world, Caron is an amazing flair winger and Hartel is an absolute elite level advanced forward. We have Hubana though. First Half. The Millers get the FA Cup underway. 9th minute: Rios hits in a corner for West Ham, Tremble heads clear, Brossard picks up, he plays it back and Lima kicks it up, we win the ball back, we're countering, Flores has it, Becerra, plays in Juliao and my word! WHAT A MISS! 14th minute: Boxall replaces the injured Juliao. 21st minute: Hartel tries a long shot but it isn't pretty. 25th minute: Lele wins the ball back, we counter and Biffi is through and my word, another sitter! What are my midfield doing today! 36th: Talking about my midfield. Phillips just decided to try and injure his opponent with a horrendous two-footed tackle. He's off, we're down to 10 after 36 minute. Quiroga is replacing Hubana has he is also injured so we have 1 upfront. My midfield have massively let us down so far today. Second half: West Ham kick off. 60th minute: Aime replaces Biffi, Vilela replaces Flores and Tapia is on for Lele. 84th minute: Tremble wins the ball back and we counter. Aime dribbles into the box and fires just wide! 93rd minute: Ferreira sees Robledo off his line and tries a 40 yarder but it's over. 95th minute: Brilliant passing from The Millers, Tapia dribbles into the box and forces a good save from Lima! Boxall with the corner and it's headed clear. It's extra time. ET first half. 95th minute: Aime hits a freekick and Lima has to get across to save! Becerra with the corner, Tremble flicks on, West Ham hit it up and Quiroga heads over. ET second half. 108th minute: We have a freekick on the edge of the West Ham box. Becerra steps over, he hits it to the back post, Bitshiabu heads it, it's the post! Quiroga with the rebound and the post again!!! What was that! 110th minute: Rovella hits a 30 yarder and Robledo has to get across to deny. Good strike. Barco with the corner and Tremble clears. Plonka picks up, into Patterson and it's another West Ham corner. Barco again, it's to the edge of the box, it hits Bitshiabu but it's offside from Caron. 121st minute: Ferreira tries another long shot and it's over. It's a penalty shoot out. Even with 10 men, how did we not win this . West Ham take the first pen. It's Barco... just past Robledo! Vilela... Lima goes the right way but no chance. Joao Gomes... slotted into the corner, Robledo went the wrong way. Becerra... Lima saves! Plonka... sends Robledo the wrong way! Boxall... Lima saves! Rovella... WEST HAM WIN THE FA CUP. My midfield need sacking, the absolute lot of them. Sitters missed and then a red card. Juliao is a doubt for the Champions League final, Hubana will be fine.

The Prem is over and it's onto the cup finals Not as many awards as previous years. Not as solid at the back this year and our lowest scoring season in 5 years. Work do be done. I don't feel we need to buy anyone, we just need to create more partnerships with the new players/youth emerging. Champions League We did the double over Real with some very good football. And it's an English Final! They beat us in the Community Shield, we beat them in the Carabao Cup Final and the FA Cup Quarter Final. It should be a good final. First though, it's the FA Cup Final vs West Ham. We'll be without Pitchford and Hojlund. Lele is just back in time and Yoro is still weeks away.

April Considering the amount of injuries we've had, it's been a brilliant month. We head into our final month without Yoro, Hojlund and Lele. Kimble will be back for the Real game, Phillips won't. We have some tired players and a couple of injuries after the international break so I'm having to rotate which includes Hojlund only managing to make the bench which is a blow but he'll be fit for the Inter game. Tapia starts at RWB as Lele is recovering from a knock and Kimble is out for up to 6 weeks. If the results go our way, we'll be Champions today. There's a mistake at the back from Leeds! Tapia puts pressure on Amo-Ameyaw, Hubana steals the ball off him, plays through Flores who slots in after just 3 minutes! We double the lead after 37 minutes! Boxall hits in the corner, Bitshiabu flicks it on, Dekker heads it against the bar and Phillips is first to the loose ball to hit in! We've been in total control in this first half, Leeds haven't even had a shot and they're at home! Leeds have pulled one back! It's a counter, a long ball over to Amo-Ameyaw, he crosses in to nobody and Bitshiabu just heads it out straight to Aguiar who hits past Robledo after 72 minutes, that was so bad from Bitshiabu! There's a big blow as Phillips leaves the field injury right before the Inter game. Pitchford seals the points after 86 minutes, we hit in the corner and it's cleared, we're heading in about, Leeds are heading it out, we're heading it back in, Flores hits over from the right and Pitchford heads in. That was a good win but if we'd of finished our chances we could of had 6! Another game where I'm having to rotate, we had the chances against Inter but didn't get the job done so I need everyone fit for the 2nd leg. We're at home against Sheff Utd and should really win. There's a mistake at the back! Tapia hits a long ball, McConnell intercepts but he dwells on it and Pitchford robs him and then slots under the keeper, we take the lead after 42 minutes! We double after 53 minutes! Tapia is first to a loose header, he takes on his man, plays a low ball to Flores who hits into the bottom corner with a good close strike. Sheff Utd pull one back after 64 minutes! Former Miller Watson throws in, it's passed back to him, he dribbles into the box, plays a one-two and then hits it across goal where Onurhan hits in at the back post. We score just 2 minutes later to make it 3 - 1! Abudlai wins the ball back, plays it to Aime, he's tackled but collects the loose ball, dribbles into the box and hits in. That was a solid win and an old favourite of mine Dave Watson had a crackin' game for Sheff Utd. Tapia starts at RWB as Lele and Kimble are injured, we've not far from having an injury crisis. We're currently without 5 main players but atleast we're playing well. 1 point against Villa and we're Champions. It's an 88th goal and it's Hubana who heads in! Quiroga wins the ball, hits it upfield and Boxall wins it, it's with Vilela who dribbles half the pitch, goes down the left and crosses in where he finds Hubana at the back post. Brilliant counter. Dekker should have put us ahead early on and Swann should have scored for Villa at the end but we win and we're Champions! Since we're Champions I can rotate massively against Crystal Palace so my best players aren't injured are fit and ready to face Real. It's Palace who take the lead, Soumah hits a ball to Atum, he dribbles down the middle and Verdugo misses the header as he chips over and Nuamah volleys in after 26 minutes. Tremble equalises after 39 minutes, heading in Boxalls corner. That was terrible! We're on the counter, we're 4 v 4 and Tapia plays such a bad ball to Boxall, Palace counter, Soumah plays it across goal and Sousa hits in after 50 minutes. That was smart! Dias Quitar playus it to Aime, he dribbles into the box and then plays a smart trick pass into the path of Vermilgio who smashes in his first senior goal after 63 minutes. We're head! Boxall hits in the corner, it's headed out and Vermiglio picks up, he finds Aime in space on the right and he hits in after 66 minutes. Is that a penalty!? Is so I feel that's harsh! It is! Boxall goes down on the edge of the box and Reis hits in after 83 minutes to make it 4 - 2. Brilliant win considering I had youth on to start and on the bench, even Jonatan came off the bench instead of Becerra to make his Rotherham United debut. We could finish with over 100 points again which would be class. OH YEAH, we're Champions . 9 in a row! Champions League We battered Inter, we hit the woodwork twice, missed massive changes and then Febbrari smashed in a 28 yarder. It was a brilliant strike! Inters only shot on target! It was so good. We were lethal at home though. Absolutely quality from start to finish. Losing Hojlund for 3 months though was gutting. Real is as tough as they come. Inter were unbeaten in 20 and have only lost twice in Serie A so if we can beat them, I think we can beat Real. FA Cup Subs made a big difference and it ended up being a good win. Tough final but we can beat West Ham, they're a good team though. Bristol St.Motors Trophy As a Rotherham United fan I still call this the Pizza Cup after Warne won it. U21 Manager Darren Moore has won it with our youth squad . Why we're a selling club. We don't have the income of the big clubs and I've made alot of money through player sales, this shows why we need to keep buying youth and selling for more and why Dai has ideas above his station with that transfer budget he gives me. International Debuts Soon to be club grown Dias Quitar has made his Brazil debut and has been filling in for Yoro and has done really well. January purchase Aime has alot made his debut and Tevez is the Argentina manager! That's cool! Next Month We're still on for another quad. Only the Cup games are important, if I have to play youth and we lose in the league, that's fine. There aren't any records we can break. Just hoping Hubana wins the golden boot.

March Reality hit us. Our finishing against Forest, PSG at home and West Ham was comical. Our FA Cup and Champions League winning streaks both came to an end. Our former DM Gamal only makes the bench in our game vs Manchester United, their not in great form but they still have class players who can cause us problems. WHAT A GOAL. Phillips gives us the lead after 6 minutes, absolutely smashing in a 25 yarder after taking on his marker, quality! What a ball from Phillips! He plays a ball over the top to find Hojlund who's onside and hits in to make it 2 - 0 after 12 minutes! Phillips is having an absolute storming game! It's a penalty to The Millers! Hojlund intercepts a bad pass, takes on one defender and Guehi pulls him back! Hubana steps up... and he hits low! 3 - 0 after 21 minutes! This is brilliant! Hojlund makes it 4 after 47 minutes! Lele intercepts a bad pass, plays a one two with Hubana, plays it back to Hubana who hits across goal and Hojlund has the goal at his mercy. Now that's a hit! Garnacho pulls one back in the 91st minute from the edge of the box following a corner for Man Utd. We were quality today! Nottingham Forest have a new manager, Mason Mount. It's his first non-playing role and he's drawn his first game in charge, can we make his 2nd a loss? Biffi is out injured and there's some rotation to be made as the Nottingham Forest game falls inbetween the PSG matches. Hubana and Hojlund start and I'd love for them to get more goals towards challenging for the golden boot. Well, we had 23 shots, an xG of 2.30 and my word our finishing was woeful, what happened! We've been amazing in recent weeks! Looks like Mason is 2/2 for draws. We have some tired players after that 120 minute battle against Spurs! Let's see if we can battle through against 2nd in the league West Ham! West Ham take the lead in the 58th minute. It's their first shot all game, Tremble tackles Hartel but the ball falls to von Schwedler to hit in, a bit lucky. We deserverdly eqauslise in the 71st minute! Biffi hits in the corner, it's headed out and Quiroga on the volley curls a perfect ball to Pitchford who hits one, it's off the post and in! My 15 year old youth player just dribbled 30 yards and only just missed, what a debut that would have been! West Ham with their 2nd shot take the lead back! Tremble with a poor ball, von Schwedler steals, dribbles down the right, plays it to Hartel who finds Joao Gomes in space to hit in after 79 minutes. We've equalised, deserved again! Biffi hits in the corner, it's cleared, Quiroga hits it, it's blocked and Tapia smashes in the half volley in the 90th minute! HOW DID HOJLUND MISS THAT! We should have won at the very end! Poor finishing and poor defending cost us today, we were by far the better side. My 15 year old played pretty well. We broke another record that came to an end we drew to bottom of the league Forest . We're guranteed a top 3 so... Where on earth does Dai Yongge think we have that sort of money to spend . We're still very much a selling club and because we are we can afford to keep our best players. We're 15 points clear with 7 to go, it'd take some sort of disaster to mess this up. Deserved, it was an absolute beauty. Champions League Brilliant away, top quality finish. Xavi Simons was brilliant. Flores missed so many quality chances. So glad Aime came off the bench and scored as it was getting too close for comfort . Not an easy draw next either. To be the best, you've gotta beat the best. FA Cup It was a close game but we had chances to put this one away. Robledo made up for his earlier mistake by saving two pens to take us through to the semi final. Where we face Arsenal, a team we know we can beat. Youth intake This came as a shock! This could be our best intake! Duncan looks CLASS for his age and has already made his Rotherham United debut! He is the future if we get those physical stats up. Amoako looks interesting, he's a playmaker and has some quality stats for 16. I'm hoping he can make it here. Shame about his bravery but Kimble doesn't have the best bravery and is a solid RWB. Vardy is absolutely one for the future at LWB. All 3 look like they could make it to the first team here and all 3 will be full internationals if they hit their potential. It's a really exciting intake. Probably the best I've ever had on any FM save. Best 50 Wonderkids 2 academy players and 2 youth I've brought in. Wu Runze could be higher next year, he looks like he has the potential to be an England Interntional CB. Braithwaite looks quality as a AF or Winger, shame we don't play either. Next Month Hopefully we pick our form back up as we have some important games next month.

February This might have been the best month I've had on this save. We've been brilliant, in the one game we weren't(Newcastle) we were solid instead. We're away at Arsenal to start this tough month, a team that are doing much better this season. Hubana gives us the lead after 25 minutes! Boxall feeds a ball through and Kaiky doesn't track the run of Hubana and then makes a poor tackle, Hubana is in acres of space and finishes easily past del Castillo. Aime comes off the bench to score his first Rotherham United goal! It's a quick attack from back to front, Tremble to Quiroga, he finds Hubana who is deeper, he plays it to Biffi who plays a first time through ball to Aime. Aime dribbles through and slots in after 80 minutes. That was a lovely team goal. Arsenal have one back in the 88th! A quick counter, Saka plays it to Martinelli and he feeds through Nwaneri who slots in! We return back to Yorkshire with all 3 points! Aime has picked up a knock and was due to start so I'm giving Reis a game since he's the future. Hubana gives us the lead after 37 minutes! Quiroga hits a ball down the left for Tapia to run onto, he crosses across goal and Hubana hits in. Is that a penalty!? Flores hits in a freekick and Kimble is taken down to the ground! Hubana steps up and it's the post! He's absolutely smashed in the last couple, I'm not sure why he didn't do the same! Hojlund comes off the bench to make it 2 - 0 after 79 minutes. Boxall plays a smart freekick to Tapia, he smashes it, the keeper dives but it hits the post and falls to Hojlund to hit into an empty net. Hojlund gets a brace after heading in Boxalls cross after 87 minutes. He's got a hat-trick from the bench! Lele intercepts a poor ball, hits it down to Pitchford, he plays it to Hojlund who moves it onto his left foot and hits in after 96 minutes! We're 1st in the form table and have the best defense in the league but Liverpool know how to score against us. JULAIO HEADS IN! My 5'5 4 jumping reach CM just scored a header! Lele crosses and Julaio heads in as Edwards come out to catch the ball and misses after 15 minutes! Becerra makes it 2 - 0 after 20! We hit in a corner and it's clear to Hojlund, he plays it across to Becerra who dribbles into the box and fires low. Edwards is a new goalkeeper to me, he's a 26 year old American newgen who's Liverpools first team goalkeeper and his average rating in 24 games is 6.69 with only 3 clean sheets, ouch! Boxall heads in Becerra's cross after 42 minutes to make it 3 - 0. 3 shots on target, 3 goals. Edwards isn't having a good time. Hubana makes it 4 after 49 minutes. Liverpool clear, Yoro wins the header, Phillips hits a ball over to Boxall who heads to Hubana who's in miles of space to smash past the GK, you can't blame Edwards for that one. Liverpool have finally had a shot and it's a goal, it's 4 - 1! Antonio Silva heads in Szoboszlai's corner. Edwards is lucky to not be punished again! Lele crosses, Edwards comes out for it and misses it but Pitchford heads onto the bar! 5.6 rating!!! My word Liverpool were not good but that GK was poor! City are in poor form and Spike Brits is now their starting GK! That GK I once smashed 5 against. Let's try and do it again! Hubana scored a 25 yard screamer in just the 4th minute. He steals it off Swedberg and smashes it! City equalise in the 9th minute! Adams let's one fly from the edge of the box and it's in the top corner, proper hit. What is this game! Juliao wins the ball back from Swedberg, plays it to Hojlund and he smashes one in from the edge of the box after 20 minutes! Becerra tried one from 25 yards but Brits saved! Boxall makes it 3 after 27 minutes! Phillips plays it outwide to Becerra, he hits it across and Hojlund is about 3 yards out but Brits is straight infront of him and denies but Boxall hits in the rebound as he's free about 4 yards out. That is a smart goal, it's 4 - 1 in 45+4. Hubana takes a freekick to Hojlund who's free, he hits a smart past to Becerra and no one is tracking him! He's free to hit past Brits. What a first half. Theo Ball didn't even start for City, whoever their manager is needs sacking. He's a newgen DLP-DM that's probably the level of Prime Pirlo. That was an easy win, for the players City have, their formation and play positioning makes no sense to me! I'll take it! We're away at Newcastle, 2nd in the league and trying to challenge for the title but they have to get through us. It's some very good passing from The Millers, Tremble hits it outwide to Becerra who volleys into the box and his ball finds Hubana free to head in after just 4 minutes. A game without much quality but Newcastle offered no threat. We've lost Yoro for 4 - 5 months through injury though, that's a big loss. Really big blow, he's our RCB and he's quality. We have tired players and a cup final next so I've had to rotate against Chelsea but we're at home and we should get revenge for our away loss. We've had so many chances in the first half and Dekker finally puts us ahead heading in Biffi's corner after 44 minutes. Now Hojlund is off with an injury, hopefully he'll be fine for the cup final. That was a good move and it's 2 - 0! Lele plays it to Biffi in the box, he plays it back. Lele out to Quiroga who plays a brilliant ball into the path of Tapia who's inside the box on the left. Tapia volleys in to finish the move after 75 minutes. There's a red card and it's to Chelsea! Gonzalez the Chelsea CB has been the only player booked in the entire game, he's just got a 2nd yellow in the 82nd minute. It's 3 in the 94th minute after a brilliant counter, Dias Quitar wins the ball, Quiroga hits a brilliant ball down the left, Boxall collects and smashes a low ball into the box where he finds Biffi who smashes in. We were quality, 3.31xG vs 0.05. We're Champions already, we're 20 points clear. Carabao Cup See above post. FA Cup Absolutely brilliant in the first half, I made too many changes in my defense so play youth in the second . We've broken another record. Next Month Bit of an unknown month, we're still waiting on who we have in our cup competitions.

Carabao Cup Final We've won the last 5 finals, the last team before that that won the competition was City who beat us in the final. We're on a 23 Carabao Cup match winning run and it's been 41 games since we've lost. Spurs did end our Community Shield run so we need to make sure they don't do it here. The line ups: We're without Yoro our main RCB as he picked up an injury against Newcastle and is out for 4 - 5 months, it's a huge blow. I'm shocked Warburton isn't starting at LB, he's a brilliant player. First half. The Millers get us started here at Wembley. 5th minute: It's quick attacking from both teams looking for an early goal. Phillips wins the ball, dribbles into the box but fires into the side netting. 16th: We nearly fluked a goal! Becerra does amazing down the left, past him man, dribbles into the box and hits it, it's hits a Spurs defender, hits off our attacker and onto the post! McKenna gathers. So close. 40th minute: A big chance. Spurs clear but we pick up, Boxall crosses and Hojlund is free but it's a poor header and well over. 45+2: Is that onside!? A brilliant ball out to Lele who hits an even better ball into the box. Hubana smashes it first time and it is onside! We're deservedly ahead! Second half: Spurs kick off. 48th minute: What about that one!? is that onside!? Phillips plays it to Juliao, his first time touch takes it past his man, he hits into the box and Hubana hits in! 2 - 0! 59th minute: Phillips hits it from 30 yards and it's off the bar! That was a crackin' strike, unlucky. Tapia and Flores replace Hojlund and Becerra in the 70th minute. 79th minute: It's 3 - 0! Lele throws in to Boxall, back to Lele, he dribbles past him man, finds Boxall in the box who has acres of space around him and acres of space to aim at. 6 in a row! Spurs didn't have a shot on target. We love the Carabao Cup . We've won 7 finals and lost 2. Compared to the FA Cup we've won 4 and lost 3 and the Champions League we've won 3 and lost 2. Why is the Carabao Cup the special one .

January We've had a few injuries and some players leave but we've grinded out results, we've been solid and we've played some good football. Hoping we can keep our good form up against Everton who shocked Newcastle last month, beating them 2 - 1. Neves has to come off with a foot injury, that doesn't look good. Hubana gives us the lead after 42 minutes and it's well deserves. Lele pulls off a trick and passes to Boxall, he plays it across to Hubana where it takes a deflection and Hubana hits in. Ohh what a strike Boxall! He hits it from 25 yards and it crashes off the crossbar and in after 45+5! Juliao makes it 3 after 53 minutes. It's hit outwide to Becerra, he dribbles down the left, cuts in, plays to Juliao who puts it onto his right foot and smashes in. Everton have scored a 95th goal! It's their first shot all game! Tapia gets robbed but Everton play it back and then across the other side of the pitch, Kitenge plays it through the middle to Lee who finishes off a quick attack. I made too many defensive subs at the end to leave us that open but that was a good win! We're without Hubana who's out for a couple of weeks but we have just absolutely battered West Ham without him and hopefully we can continue into the game against Spurs. It's lucky but we're ahead after 63 minutes! Biffi hits a freekick down the right to Yoro, he plays it back to Biffi, he shoots into the crowd, there's a block, a deflection and it falls to Boxall to hit in, lucky! Vilela is fouled! Is it in the box!? Sadly it's JUST out. A game that lacked quality but we stopped Spurs even having a shot on target. Gamal looks like he's on the move to Manchester United as I won't meed his contract demands, Phillips is injured so Quiroga is recalled from loan and starts against Fulham. Kimble scores against his former club after just 13 minutes to give us the lead. Fulham equalise in the 19th minute with Collins heading in Curtis Jones' corner. Flores has come off the bench to to put us back ahead after a brilliant through ball by Becerra, Flores beats the on rushing goalkeeper to hit in after 67 minutes. Flores seals the victory in the 93rd minute, dribbling past his marker and smashing in after 93 minutes. Quiroga signed in 2030/31 and it's now 34/35, it took basically 4 years for his debut . We're flying high at the top! Not an award we get often so seeing a goal of the month is pretty cool! FA Cup I had some youngsters and backups get in a full 90 minutes so it was good for them and a good win. Chelsea didn't have a shot on target, we were solid and Hubana on his return scored the only goal. We should be able to batter 'Boro. Carabao Cup Absolutely brilliant in the 1st leg, I had to rotate a little in the 2nd leg and Tremble saved our winning record in the 95th minute . The team that ended our Community Shield winning run is now looking to end our Carabao Cup winning run! Champions League We were brilliant, not our usual starting 11 so it was great to see. We deserved our late winner, we had chances but Benfica's goalkeeper was pulling off save after save. Deadline Day So we've had a busy window. Neves was on 275k a week and had 16 months left on his contract so I chose to cash in, he's gone to Barcelona for less than I was paying him but we've not missed him so far. He did his job in tutoring the players I wanted him too but I'm happy for Boxall and Biffi to play in his place. Gamal is an odd one, he's of the OG homegrown players and I didn't want him to leave, he's a good squad player but he wanted £200k a week and it was not happening, I ended contracts talks and offered him out. He's gone to Man Utd for 155k a week which I would have paid him. I think £60mil is good business though. I've brought 4 players in and 2 of them were the players I wanted in the summer and they've come for alot less wage! First we have Aime who's a squad player being retrained at MC and still has alot of potential! Absolute steal for £10mil. Matsumoto has alot of work to do but he's being trained to be a future MC for us aswell. Jonatan is full of flaws, I mean just look at his marking, passing and tackle but we have a World Class LWB to help mentor him. Can he reach his potential? Kevin "Bulldozer" Buchholzer. He needs to work on his strength but he's a 6'5 BWM who can fill in at CB, he could be a big player in the future. I had a bid accepted for another youth CM who's on loan from Roma at Mainz but the deal didn't go through in time which is a shame. He looked decent. And I guess the not new signing but someone who'll be our 2nd DM for the rest of the season. He's played well in his 3 games for us so far and I do like he's good with both feet and can win a header. I've bought 76mil worth of players this season and sold 161mil and will be looking to make bank in the summer since we have a new stadium to prepare for. Some crazy money being spent in January! \ Think I'm the only one who buys for the future . Maybe that's the difference. Next Month That is a difficult run of games, we'll be glad to finish the month off against 'Boro.

December Such an odd month, we either had chances and struggled infront of goal or we were very clinical! Home against Leeds, we have to win this one. It's half time and neither team has had a shot on target, Boxall should have buried his chance but he skied it. Ohhhh Lele! We hit in a corner but Leeds clear, we collect the loose ball, it's our defenders passing it around the edge of their box and Lele just smahses it from the edge of the box, it's a brilliant strike after 55 minutes. We had alot of chances, 23 shots, only 8 on target and an xG of 2.78 vs Leeds who had 1 shot, 1 on target and a 0.00xG and it took a wonder goal to win, our finishing is letting us down at the moment. Another Yorkshire match, this time against Sheffield United and it's another game we should be winning. Lele looked like he won the ball to me but the ref has gone to VAR and thankfully it isn't a penalty! This time it is a penalty as Tremble takes down his man and Sheff Utd take the lead after 42 minutes, they haven't had a sniff all game but we're behind. Hojlund equalises in the 47th minute after hitting in a first shot time. Hubanas pass through to set him up was sublime. Juliao gives us the lead after hitting in from just inside the box, it hit the bar and bouced in after 53 minutes. Is there a foul? There isn't and Hojlund makes it 3, we hit in a corner, it's cleared back to Neves, he hits into the box, Tremble blocks his man and Hojlund gets a brace after 62 minutes. Gamal makes it 4 after 79 minutes. Tapia with the ball down the left, back to Dias Quitar, he hits a pass to Gamal on the edge of the box, Gamal dribbles just inside the box and smashes in. Hojlund gets his hat-trick in the 88th minute after heading in Pitchford's cross. We were brilliant in the 2nd half, 5 goals, so many chances and Sheff Utd didn't manage a shot. In fact the pen was the only shot they had all game. I've had to rotate against Villa so I'm hoping Boxall and Biffi perform in midfield. Do we have a pen? Biffi is taken down in the 3rd minute. Yes it is! Hubana slots low into the corner past Bazunu after 4 minutes! Brilliant strike after a great move and we're 2 - 0! Hubana plays it out to Lele, he dribbles into the box, plays it back to Phillips who thumps it first time into the net after 24 minutes. Boxall makes it 3 after 28 minutes after a great strike finishing off a great move! This is brilliant football from The Millers! Villa pull one back just before the break, Lele tackles Sanitago but Fionuke picks it up, plays it back to Sanitago, he hits it across the box to find England International Swann who hits in after 45+2. Flores has come off the bench to make it 4, good attacking down the right, Lele crosses and Flores nods in at the near post after 71 minutes. Some brilliant football from The Millers today and some great finishing. Lele was at his best. I'm having to rotate again against Crystal Palace, Dekker and Yoro both need resting, Bitshiabu makes his return and youngster Dias Quitar starts again, he's been quite impressive this season. We've had the possession, the chances but we go in at half time level, our shooting has been wasteful. It's Palace who take the lead, a ball over the top by Essama, Soumah beats the offside trap and hits in after 48 minutes. Flores equalises in ther 68th minute, Dias Quiatar hits a ball down the right, Lele hits into the box and Flores smashes in. Not good enough, we had the chances but our shooting was woeful! Boxall gives us the lead after just 2 minutes against Brighton! He hits in the corner, it's cleared, Juliao plays it back to him, he has time to cut in, dribble and curl past Raggi. It's Juliao who makes it 2 after 28 minutes. Good attacking, Becerra plays it to Juliao who dribbles into the box and strikes it well, that's much better finishing from Juliao. Hojlund makes it 3 after 34 minutes! Lele it to Juliao but he's tackled, the ball halls to Hubana who plays through Hojlund who strikes well from just outside the box. What a brilliant first half! This is the type of finishing we've been missing! It's an own goal and 3 - 1! Gilmour dribbles down the left, crosses in and Dekker hits in for an O.G after 67 minutes! Can Brighton make a comeback? They didn't have a chance after, we were good today. Brentford are 20th and haven't won all season so I feel safe to make big changes and let some youth play a Prem game. Vilela puts us ahead after 12 minutes! Tapia crosses from the left, it takes a deflection and Vilela is there to hit in. The result was never in doubt, Brentford didn't have a shot on target. We had chances to score more and it would have been nice. Southampton were doing well but they're now 20th in the form table and we're at home, we should be winning this. It's an early goal to The Millers, Neves plays it to the feet of Hubana, he turns and does his marker, dribbles and absolutely smashes it in to give us the lead after 5 minutes. Hubana doubles after 20 minutes! He dribbles from the half way line and from about 20 yards out smashes it low, the goalkeeper manages to get a hand to it but it's in! It's 3 in the 27th! Kimble hits an early cross, Hubana flicks on and Hojlund heads in! Neves makes it 4 after 48 minutes. Yoro hits a ball down the right, Hubana picks it up in the box, plays it to Neves in space who hits in. Is that a pen!? Vermiglio crosses and Boxall is pushed to the floor! It's Hubana who steps up and smashes in for his hat-trick after 67 minutes. He's got a 4th and it's 6 - 0! Hubana heads in Boxalls corner after 85 minutes. Biffi makes it 7 after 87! Bitshiabu plays it across to Vermigilio who hits it first time to Biffi in the box who hits in first time. Hojlund makes it 8 after 94 minutes! Good passing from the Millers, Vermiglio dribbles into the box, plays it across goal and Hojlund hits in. What a win!!! Newcastle have lost 2 and drawn 1 this month where we've only slipped up by drawing once so we have some breathing room. Champions League Our impressive Champions League campaign continues. FA Cup Draw A home draw and a match we should win. Carabao Cup Brilliant, much better than our league game against Leeds earlier in the month. That is a difficult draw but we're Carabao Cup heroes, having won our last 21 Carabao Cup games. Youth intake Looks like an alright intake! We'll see! Football of the Year Hubana is the best in the world . A Bosnian striker who was the next Dzeko has become the best of the best. Robledo is brilliant. He's even better than Kovar and I didn't think I'd ever replace him. Dekker and Yoro deserve to be there, it's a shame that Becerra doesn't make it to LB and only makes the bench. Next Month Alot of difficult games and we'll need to be at our best. We have alot of players that clubs are interested in, West Ham have already big 106mil(most of it being bonuses) for Robledo which is insulting for the best goalkeeper in the world. Rumours are Spurs want to bid for Pitchford and are lining up for a £117mil bid. I'd drive him there myself for that .

November That was a good month, turns out we broke a record in the Champions League. This is been my longest FM save ever . Manchester United aren't in brilliant form and we need to take advantage of that. Tremble heading a corner onto the woodwork earlier into the game puts us 1 - 0 up after 17 minutes, heading in a corner with the aid of the woodwork. That's a huge mistake at the back from Man Utd, Hubana steals, play it to Hojlund, he takes on Payton but Payton recovers and takes the ball from Hojlund, he passes across and Hubana says thanks, intercepts and hits in after 61 minutes. That was a deserved win, Man Utd didn't manage a shot on target. Forest are 20th and we're at home, we should be able to win this one easily. Forest take the lead ater 7 minutes, Lele wins the ball but doesn't clear, Forest attack quickly and Fanger strikes it with real venom and it deflects past Robledo. Juliao has missed two absolute sitters but Hojlund equalises in the 19th minute after Biffi hits in the freekick, Lele picks up, dribbles round, plays it across goal where Hojlund has an easy hit in. Oh that was a good hit, we attack, Phillips plays it outwide to Lele, he cuts in and smashes it, it rises above the Forest GK and in after 28 minutes. It's 3 in the 43rd minute, Juliao wins it back, Biffi plays it to Hojlund, he's smart and waits for the run of Hubana, plays it through to him and Hubana hits in. Hojlund makes it 4 after 94 minutes, Abulai plays it to Hubana, he plays through Hojlund who slots low into the corner. 35 shots, 12 on target, 4.95xG and if we our shooting wasn't so wasteful it could have been our biggest ever win, especially Juliao, he missed some absolute sitters! Bitshiabu was injured on international duty but Tremble has been playing in his place. In positive news Joao Neves has returned, Portugal have given him some match fitness where he scored so he starts against West Ham! How did Hubana miss that, he's about 6 yard out, pretty much open net and he hads it onto the bar, he's struggling since his return from injury, even on international duty he struggled. It was a bad pass from Tremble, West Ham countered but thankfully Caron was offside! It's Biffi! Becerra wins it, dribbles into the middle of the pkar, plays it to Biffi, he dribbles into the box and it's a deflection that gives us the lead after 82 minutes! West Ham equalise in the 90th minute!!! Silveira heads in Rovella's corner! We should have probably won but it's a draw. Newcastle thankfully slipped up and drew against Villa so we're still ahead on GD. Carabao Cup Good win, was happy Flores scored just a minute after missing a penalty. Shame we're away but that'll be a good match. Champions League Vilela has scored 4 in 2 in Europe, he's one to watch for sure. This isn't something I was expecting, we do lose in the Champions League but it seems we're on a streak. Robledo was AMAZING. Saved a pen and a clear cut chance before we took the lead, he made even more big saves, put their key striker off late on who looked like he was going to equalise. Proper GK. Prem Player Development We'll top that in the next couple of years. Best 50 Players Finally Becerra is in it! He deserved to be AND we have a winner! I wonder if the likes of Robledo, Tremble and Phillips will make the top 50 list at some point. Next Month This should be a good month, there's enough games we should be winning and we always seem to do well in the winter months. We will need to rotate alot and we have a couple of injuries. This could be a brilliant month like December usually is or we'll see Newcastle take the summit.

October We beat Newcastle to give us a point lead only to get FM'd by Chelsea to be back on level points . Hubana was injured on international duty so we're without the World Golden Ball winner, Pitchford starts against Newcastle but I need him to pick up form. That he does! Good attacking down the left, Hojlund to Juliao, he plays though Pitchford who managed to slot in after just 5 minutes! Clem equalises for Newcastle after 28 minutes. Dekker wins the ball back he's too sloppy and Kumagawa takes it back off him, Newcastle pass the ball around quickly and Clem does Biffi and smashes past Robledo. What a strik! Juliao with a 25 yard screamer that hits the post and goes in after 32 minutes to give us back the lead. We have a shout for pen! I thought it was a good tackle but Allgower is deemed to have taken down Hojlund. It's Juliao from the spot! It's saved after 38 minutes, still 2 - 1. We've had a really good first half, continue this is the second and we should win. Juliao gets his brace after finishing off a good move and a good through ball from Becerra after 50 minutes. It's 4 after 52 minutes, Juliao plays it outwide to Kimble, it isn't the best pass but Kimble uses his skill to pick it up and taken on his man, he dribbles down the right, crosses in and Hojlund heads in. What an brillint win! Hubana returns against Chelasea, Becerra has a knock so Tapia starts. We usually do well against Chelsea so let's hope it continues. We've had all the chances but Chelsea take the lead, Chelsea counter, Baidoo plays to Caicedo on the edge of the box who strikes it and it takes a deflection into the corner after 68 minutes. I feel we just got FM'd, our finishing was poor! Trubin was MOTM and Hubana had a game to forget. 15 shots vs 4, 1.72xG vs 0.24xG and we go back to Rotherham pointless. Newcastle aren't giving up. Nottingham Forest This is the first I've seen on the save, not sure what'll happen to them from here apart from relegation. Champions League I massively rotated and played alot of youth so this was a brilliant win. Hubana came off the bench for some match fitness late on. World Players of the Year Finally have a "Golden Ball" winner . England Players This is something I hope to change in the next few years. We could have 4 if MacDonald, Kimble, Tremble and Phillips were all called up. Best Youth Setup Wasn't expecting this, we've not been in the top 10 to being the best in the world. We'll have more star graduates soon as we've had some good intakes. Next Month Some tough games, we need to a good month in the league after the Chelsea loss.

September Goals galore and 4 games in a row on the TV , Bitshiabu is playing at LWB against Fulham as both Tapia and Becerra are out injured but he's played well there when he's had to cover before, I think we'll have enough about us to win. It's bad all around, a very poor pass from Tremble, Fulham counter, Ayling to Jones and he hits past Robledo after 18 minutes, that isn't the best piece of goalkeeping either. We draw level just 5 minutes later, Bitshiabu with a cross from the edge of the box and Hubana who missed a sitter earlier makes up for it, heading home. Biffi gives us the lead after 41 minutes. He hits in a corner, it's headed out, Gamal picks up, to Juliao who plays first time to Biffi who's in alot of space to dribble and hit in. It's red! Ayling with a shocking double footed tackle on Lele, Fulham are down to 10 after 53 minutes. Flores makes it 3 after a brilliant counter. It's a bad pass and Vermigilio steals, he runs down the right, gives it to Hubana who plays it across the box and Flores has the goal at his mercy to hit into after 76 minutes. It's 4 in the 92nd minute, Bitshiabu with some skill down the left, it's crossed in and not cleared properly, Flores tackles and Juliao hits in the loose ball. That was a good win, Bitshiabu was amazing at LWB! Bitshiabu starts at LWB as Tapia and Becerra aren't fully fit, Neves starts at DM as Biffi is in good form at MCR and Phillips isn't fully fit, hoping we can give City a game here. Phillips came on to replace the injured Juliao after 19 minutes and set up Neves to put us 1 - 0 up. Neves hits in the corner, it's cleared to Lele, he plays it Biffi who plays to Phillips who sets up Neves who smashes in the top corner after 24 minutes. We're ahead at the break but we need to play better, City have had chances. It's Neves again though! Phillips plays a ball over to Lele, he plays it back to Yoro, to Neves who dribbles onto his right and smashes it in from just outside the box after 51 minutes. Boxall makes it 3 in the 88th minute, Kimble plays it down the right to Flores, he loses it to Gvardiol but wins it straight back, plays it to Boxall who hits in first time. We had an xG of 0.90 and had 3 shots on target yet won 3 - 0! Neves was brilliant! We're without Neves for two months which is a huge loss as he was brilliant against City. We have players to step up and show Arsenal they're as good as Neves. It's Juliao after just 3 minutes! Becerra hits in the corner, it's headed out, Hojlund heads back in, it bounces in the box, no one attacks it and Juliao smashes in the loose ball. That's 2 - 0 after 18 minutes, Bitshiabu intercepts, we attack with some good passing, Juliao plays through Hubana and he chips the outcoming goalkeeper. It's 3 after 22! Biffi sees Kimble outwide in alot of space, he plays it to him, Kimble dribbles down into the box and plays it back to Biffi who smashes in for his 5th league goal of the season! That was a brilliant win! Hubana has knock against Liverpool so Pitchford who hasn't been great when coming off the bench starts. He does have a good partnership with Hojlund though and hopefully he can do a job here. Liverpool take an early lead, it's exactly how they scored last time against us, crossed to Pino who outjumped Becerra to head in after 5 minutes. Mendes doubles for Liverpool after 32 minutes, dribbling into the box and hitting in after Echeverri plays it back from the edge of the pitch. Phillips pulls one back in the 35th minute, heading in Biffi's corner. It's an equaliser!!! Tapia crosses and I'm thinking surely Flores is offside, he isn't but the Liverpool defender clears but Flores picks up the loose ball, plays it to Kimble who crosses first time and that man Hubana gets between his two markers and heads in after 91 minutes! We were lucky, Liverpool were the better side, Lele really needs to pick his game up, I'm glad I have Kimble in form. Newcastle are not letting us take a point lead! Carabao Cup Good win as I rotated massively. I let Reis take the penalty to try and get him a debut goal and he hit the post! Still, a good win. And I can play youth players again as we should beat Hull, especially at home. Champions League Losing Neves is a blow but we've been good in his absence. Juliao was brilliant. Two very very good wins against good teams. Next Month There's a bit break between league games due to the international break so I've put in a friendly that I might move depending on how tired some players are. Then it's a tough game against 2nd in the league Newcastle. Hopefully we win all 3 competitive games this month.

August We've been solid in the league and we got revenge on Spurs. We've just lost to Spurs and media have told us it's been 3 games since we've put a goal past Callan McKenna the Spurs GK, seems we need to do it today. It took 4 minutes to break the streak, Biffi played a ball through to Hubana who hit in after a good Rotherham move. That was a good win, we hit the woodwork twice but we managed the win! Yoro is still tired from the World Cup so he's on holiday and I've had a rotate some of my tired players, after his performance in the Super Cup, Tapia is starting at RWB. It's paid off, after a good attacking move, Tapia to Biffi, Biffi shoots and it takes a big deflection but it's in after 18 minutes. They are at it again! Biffi plays it out to Dekker, he plays it back to Tapia, to Biffi, he shoots and Williams fumbles it into the net after 50 minutes. Biffi is fouled in the box! Biffi for a hat-trick and that is a very nice penalty into the bottom corner after 71 minutes! Biffi was class today! We have some players returning for the trip to Sunderland but Tapia and Biffi deserve to keep their starting place. Hojlund is fouled in the box and Hubana puts away the penalty away 19 minutes. It's great play from Dekker, he intercepts a bad pass and plays it across the box to set up Hubana who scores his brace after 42 minutes. What a strike from Hubana, Dekker intercepts, dribbles down the middle and plyas it to Hubana. Hubana sees Cajon not in the best of positions and smashes it from outside the box for his hat-trick after 51 minutes. Dekker was brilliant today and Hubana was at his best! GD puts us top. Community Shield and UEFA Super Cup See above posts Carabao Cup Draw Some youth players will get game time atleast. Deadline Day I let MacDonald go out on loan, he's actually got to Atalanta to play as an important player which shocked me. Hopefully it'll push his value up. I did bring in Reis for 36mil. He could have a brilliant future here. And more players went out on loan... 21 of them altogether Arsenal have such an insane wage bill! Especially since they didn't even make Europe last year! OH, EUROPE. Champions League Draw Some tough draws! 2 which are just next month! Next Month Let's be honest, after the first two games this is as hard as it gets, just glad we have a run at home. Need to show our amibition to win the quad again.

UEFA Super Cup We're against a team we should really beating. We've played in this competition 3 times so far, winning all 3. First again Real Madrid, then against OCG Nice and our last win was against Spurs. Surely we can make it 4 out of 4 and beat Villarreal? We need to make up for the Community Shield loss. Line ups: We're without Kimble and our star DM Phillips through injury. I think Gamal can step up though, he's played alot of games for us at DM. First half: It's Villarreal who start the match. 17th minute: That's brilliant football from the Miller, good passing all round, Juliao to Hubana who hits in first time. 18th minute: From kick off Becerra steals, we counter and Juliao strikes but it's the post. 19th minute: This is brilliant from The Millers, Hojlund is in but he's taken down! Hubana steps up.. but his pen is saved by Jorgensen! 42nd minute: Yoro with a brilliant run, ones a one two with Lele, Yoro then plays it to Gamal who strikes, it's takes a deflection and a brilliant save! Neves with the corner but Jorgensen takes. We need that 2nd goal. Second half: Rotherham United kick off. 55th minute: Neves wins the ball back, plays it to Hojlund, he plays a smart ball through to Neves who slots in! What a counter, brilliant from Neves! 65th minute: Villarreal have pulled one back! They play a ball cross the box but Dekker clears, Pau dribbles and isnt' closed down, Juliao gets a leg in but Pau still has it, he plays it to Akmomach who hits a brilliant finish from outside the box. 65th minute: Neves is dropping deeper, Gamal is being replaced by Biffi. Tapia is replacing Lele at RWB and Bitshiabu is replacing Becerra at LWB. 72nd minute: Tapia plays it into the box, Hubana strikes, it's saved but Hojlund heads in the rebound from about 3 yards out! 3 - 1! 78th minute: What a counter attack! Hubana plays it out wide to Tapia, he dribbles into the box, round his man and plays a smart ball to the back post for Hojlund to get his brace. 82nd minute: Boxall replaces Juliao and Pitchford replaces Hubana. 94th minute: It's 5! Biffi plays it to Pitchford, he plays it back, Biffi straight to Boxall who hits in. We've been amazing in this second half!
