TacticalGenius Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 RB Leipzig (RasenBallsport Leipzig) is a German football club based in Leipzig, formed in 2009. The club dominated the NOFV-Oberliga Süd in 2009-10 and were promoted as champions to the Regionalliga Nord for the 2010-2011 season, and ultimately missed out on promotion, so they continue in Regionalliga Nord for 2011-12. The club was founded in June 2009 and forms the fourth football involvement of Red Bull, which already runs three football clubs: Red Bull Salzburg in Salzburg, Austria, the New York Red Bulls and Red Bull Brasil. The name differs from these other teams' names due to the statutes of the DFB (Deutscher Fußball Bund or German Football Association) which prescribe how a sponsor's name is used as part of a club's identity. Unlike its other sports teams, the Leipzig club cannot carry the Red Bull name or be fully owned by the company. The German football association requires a club to hold 51% of its shares, Red Bull will therefore only be able to acquire 49% of the club. RB Leipzig aims to play first division Bundesliga football within the next eight to ten years. To reach this goal, it has bought the playing licence for the Oberliga, the German fifth league, from the club SSV Markranstädt. RB Leipzig play their home games in the Red Bull Arena, a 44,345 all-seater stadium. It has been speculated that Red Bull will invest €100m in the club over the next ten years. Instrumental in the deal was Michael Kölmel, owner of the Zentralstadion in Leipzig. Dietrich Mateschitz, owner of Red Bull, openly speaks of the possibility of the club winning a German championship. The last time a team from Leipzig won the German championship was almost one hundred years ago, in 1913, when VfB Leipzig took out the title. The new club retained the Oberliga team as well as all other football teams of the SSV Markranstädt. FM2012: Club info: Facilities: You get roughly £4.5M a year for 10 years from Red Bull's sponsorship. First season transfer budget is £475k no matter whether you pick avoid relegation or winner, which, coupled to the team's decent reputation (relative to league) should attract good enough players to get successive promotions. The starting squad should be good enough even for instant promotion in season one. The wage budget is £105k (£88.7k used) regardless of whether you choose avoid relegation or winner. (This all assumes you start with the holiday method which promotes RBL into 3.Liga - I don't use added leagues so I don't know financial info for RBL in Regionalliga Nord.) To play as RB Leipzig: The holiday-retire-load method of promoting an unplayable team from the 4th tier: 1) Add yourself as an unemployed manager. 2) Go on holiday until 18th June 2012, SAVE, then go on holiday for one day. 3) Retire your manager. 4) Add a new manager (the one you'll use for the save) and look in the 3.Liga for RB Leipzig. If RB Leipzig isn't there, reload the save on 18th June, holiday for one day and continue from step 3.

I take no credit whatsoever.) Copy the Kits file to: Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2012/graphics/kits (make folders where needed) Players and tactics: I would suggest a 4-2-3-1 Deep, 4-4-2, 4-5-1 or even a 5-3-2 formation (in that order), as these are probably the best formations for the players available. Players key: *** = Keep at all costs ** = good rotation/backup * = sell/release GK's: Pascal Borel *** Benjamin Bellot ** Andreas Kerner ** FB: Christian Muller (RB) *** Shaban Ismaili (RB) ** Felix Neuer (RB) ** Florian Felke (LB) ** CB: Tim Sebastian *** Ingo Hertzsch ** Marcus Hoffmann ** Matthias Buszkowiak ** Daniel Rosin ** Fabian Franke ** Daniel Ackermann * DM: Timo Rost *** Bastian Schultz *** Pekka Lagerblom ** CM/AMC: Thiago Rockembach (AMC) *** Tom GeiBler (MC) ** Fabian SchoBler (AMC) ** Henrik Ernst (MC) ** Mario Scholze (MC) * Tino Oechsner (MC) * Wingers: Alexander Laas (ML) *** Umut Kocin (ML) *** Maximilian Watzka (AMR) *** Paul Schinke (AML) ** Steven Lerwenz (AMR) ** Daniel Heinze (AMR) ** Timo Rottger (AMR) ** Sebastian Heidinger (AMR) ** Richard van Den Bosch (AML) * Toni Pfeffing (AMR) * Sven Seitz (AML) * ST: Daniel Frahn *** Stefan Kutschke *** Carsten Kammlott *** Mirko Jentzsch * Robert Klaub * Based on natural positions. The playing squad is solid, with only minor alteration required in the first season or two. I'd recommend Lauri Dalla Valle (ST, free, 1st July 2012), Benjamin Schwarz (LB , transfer listed at 1860 Munchen - £110k) and Mahamadou Sissoko (CB, transfer listed at Udinese - £600k) Good luck, and enjoy!

You did the thread last year right?I wanted to start as them on FM11, but never found the time. I did, yes. Looks as though this year it has more interest in 12 hours than the old one got over the whole year! My FM11 RBL save was the best save I've ever had in a manager game. The only thing missing was a son :/ Nice one bud. Playing with them for the challenge in CSE. Won the CL and Bundesliga twice on FM11. Hoping for a repeat this season. Already into the Bundesliga after winning the 3rd Division then the 2nd in my first two seasons in charge. Cheers. I thought about playing to the CSE challenge rules for my save, but I like a bigger database, so won't be doing it, at least not yet. The first two divisions are a walk in the park. It's that first Bundesliga season that can be problematic... I started a RB game in fm12 and it was fun! Only problem that annoyed me was the finacial one.

Some players that did well for me in my save, if you are interested:Andre Hansen GK Peter Luccin DM Stefan Strandberg CB All walked into the team and did very well The only time I had any real financial problem (on FM11) was in the first Bundesliga season, where a real look at the squad was needed for the first time. Until the prize money came in at the end of the year, it was a struggle to pay fees, so free transfers were the way to go, while trying to maximise income through sales of squad players to add to the wage budget.

He's either footed and I think i can sell him for a big sum in the future. AML: Marek Strestik 17 Dribbling and 18 pace for a Third Division team? Perfect DL/DR: Nico Hamman Brought him in to cover the fullback areas. He seems like he could do a proper job. DC: Nico Perrey Only 18 years old, will be decent cover.Really happy with the transfers. All for free which is always good. I got rid of most the deadwood so that frees up the wage budget a little. Will need too find a new striker in the January window. Other than that the team looks great and hope that I can push for promotion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjoggi33 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Season 2012/2013 - Third Division PROMOTION! A great first season! We started slow in the league with two draws in the first two games. After that we pretty much dominated the league until the end.We won many games with big margins which was enjoyable. Will have to sell or release most of the players to free up wages for better players to join. Table - Graph - Club Information The board agreed to upgrade my training facilities and it's planned on being done 16/10/2014. My job status is now untouchable which is pretty cool. Players: GK: Pascal Borel - Did OK until he got injured right before January. Was replaced by a superior GK named David Yelldell he did good with an avg. rating of 6.95 and 7 clean sheets. DR: Pierre Womé - 34 years old and declining fast. Needs replacing for next season. Still did well with an avg. rating of 7.28. DC: Sören Gonther Great defender and was one of my favorite player this season, always good to have an either footed player. Avg. rating of 7.33 DC: Tim Sebastian - One word: Amazing. 15 goals from this heading monster. DL: Christian Muller - Made the Left-Back position his own this season. Avg. rating of 7.28. MR: Kostadin Dyakov - Assist machine! 25 assists in 35 games. MC: Bastian Schulz - Great player, very consistant. Avg. rating of 7.15 MC: Timo Rost - Did a good job, 10 assists. ML: Marek Strestik - Great player, won the German Third Division Player of the Year. Going to be hard keeping him around while teams in the Bundesliga are sniffing around. ST: Daniel Frahn - My target man, he got injured at the end of the season so his stats have almost all declined but he was good this season with 15 goals and 11 assists. A fine return. ST: Carsten Kammlot - My favorite player. Third Division's top goalscorer with 27 goals in 35 games. Also assisted 11 goals so he's an all-around good player. Youth Watch: Sven Noguera - ST Was in the youth team when I took over. He's HUUUUUUUUGEEE! Labelled the next Keibling. Decided to not give him any game time in the first team so he could mature a little bit more. Will give him a lot of games next season. I don't expect us to do good in 2nd division unless I strengthen the squad a lot. Most of the players will get offloaded in the summer so that brings some cash in and hopefully we can buy some good, strong players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TacticalGenius Posted December 31, 2011 Author Share Posted December 31, 2011 On FM11, Kammlott was indispensible. On FM12, he was out the door once his contract was up. I've had a real issue with finding consistent strikers, for example, in 2.Liga, my CB was top scorer with 10... Now I'm spoiled for choice with talented kids and my Italian regen striker Bono seems to be better, breaking our top season scorer record with 16 last season. Of the original squad, Tim Sebastian is a backup CB, Rockembach is in the reserves, Hertsch and Borel are youth and GK coach respectively. @Spikester: I'm using a 4-2-3-1 Deep. Nothing special.

bjoggi33 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 RasenBallsport Leipzig Season 2013/2014 - Second Division We started pretty solid in the league but the form fell down. Highest position we got was 2nd for one game after that we pretty much rocked from 10th and 5th, eventually finishing 7th which was our media prediction. We could have had a real change of promotion if we didn't draw SO many of our games. The German Cup was pretty much over when it started but we won Neumunster 4-0 in the 1st round and lost 0-3 to Freiburg in the 2nd round. Table - Graph - Club Information Players: GK: David Yelldell - Was bad, he's the main reason I'm conceding so much goals. Too bad I don't have any money to replace him. DR: Christian Muller - He did alright nothing magnificent but he's getting older and needs to be replaced. DC: Soren Gönther - Played well. Avarage rating above 7. DC: Jagos Vukovic - Brought him in on free transfer in the Pre-Season. He's been a rock in the defense this season with an avg. rating of 7.12. DL: Nico Hamman - He replaced our maine LB Pierré Womé in the latter stages of the season and he did better so he's here. MR: Marco Padalino - Brought him in on free transfer from Sampdoria. 18 assists this season. Our very own speed demon. MC: Bastian Schulz - Solid season from a solid player. Nice return of 10 goals and 7 assists. MC: Timo Rost - At 35 years old he's declining but he was alright this season. Retiring after next season. ML: Marek Strestik - The Czech winger was solid this season. Avg. rating of 7.06 ST: Wellington - Ahh this guy blows my mind. Signed him on free transfer in the Pre-Season. He scores some beautiful goals and was the Second Division top scorer with 27 goals. ST: Carsten Kammlot - Didn't play much due to injuries but was the second best striker. Youth Watch Sven Noguera - Didn't play very well in the changes I gave him but I think he might become a good First Division forward in the future so I will keep playing him. Promotion might well be on the cards if we strengthen some positions. Planning to get some youngsters on loan from the big clubs but the wage budget isn't exactly in a good stand so that might be hard. The finances are not good, sitting at -5 million pounds.

bjoggi33 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 RasenBallsport Leipzig Season 2014/2015 - Second Division We started the season with a draw versus Aachen followed by a great 6-1 win over Unterhaching followed by a 3-0-2 until we went on a 19 game unbeaten run that contained an 8-1 win over Dredsen but it was ended on Stadion deer Freundschaft 0-2 vs Cottbus. After that we bounced back with a win over promotion contenders 1860 München 4-0. The last part of the season was a bit sketchy with a form of 4-2-1 winning Regensburg 3-0 in our last game of the season. The German Cup was lost in the 3rd round 0-2 versus Schalke. Table - Graph - Club Information Players: GK: Beto - Portuguese international, sits on the bench most of the time thought. Came in for free.DR: Christian - Did alright in the in the fullback slot, still needs to be replaced but I lack the funds to find a decent replacement. DC: Chris Tuttle - Cant understand why Southampton released him. He had a really solid season and is still developing, hopefully he'll be with us for the next couple of season and do good in the Bundeliga. He also won the Fans Player of the Year award. DC: Jagos Vukovic - The Serbian beast is the heart of the defense and and had a good season. DL: Salah Salama - Our record breaking transfer of £900K didn't have the greatest of all seasons but is still settling is, he is wanted by many clubs in Italy, England, and France. MR: Marco Padalino - He did good notching up 14 assists and an Avg. Rating of 7.52, needs to be replaced as he is aging. MC: Ryan Tunnicliffe - Released by Man. Utd and I picked him up. Hopefully I can sell him for a nice profit MC: Bastian Schulz - Been with us since the Third Division and will probably be getting some games in the Bundeliga. ML: Marek Strestik Shame we didn't come to an agreement in his contract negotiations. Leaving for Bolton on a free transfer ST: Sven Noguera - The only good product from our Academy. Our main striker did well as supporting striker with 15 goals, most scored with headers Bayern have been sniffing around but he is happy with us. ST: Wellington - Probably not good enough for the Bundesliga but he did alright scoring 17 goals. Hopefully we will do alright in our first season in the Bundesliga. Aiming for a mid-table finish, I'm predicted to come 13th which is quite weird since most of the team predicted to come beneath us have much better squads.

As there is no messing with the DB by starting in the 2nd season, there is a lot less chance of something going wrong. Thats the main reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
