bar333 Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) So the first season in the Bundesliga with Dynamo Dresden wasn't that bad after all as we spent most of the season in the top half. Had a miserable run of form in December and January going 8 games without a win but finished strongly in 7th qualifying for the EL. Recorded possibly the biggest result in this club's history since the unification trashing Werder Bremen 5-0 away. Big over achievement but unfortunately my thunder was stolen by Hamburg who over achieved even more and lost the title to Bayern in the 94th min of the last game, to an own goal. Had a good chuckle at that but their manager won the award regardless. The board actually set the summer's transfer budget at over 20m with a huge wage budget but I still decided to leave and join Stuttgart. Was actually offered interviews at various bigger clubs throughout the season including Dortmund but didn't want to walk in the middle of the season. Rich finances, superb facilities and a higher reputation still make Stuttgart a step up. Lemme tell you, never seen a squad with so much deadwood. We're not in Europe so I had a huge clear out and brought in Cutrone, Brekalo from a relegated Wolfsburg, Razvan Marin and Javi Ontiveros. Basically overhauled the front 3 with my own players. Clubhopping in Germany is fun. Edited November 25, 2018 by bar333 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A team i always have wanted to manage om FM, but havent until now. Will update after the season. Look forward to seeing how you get on with FCSP. My go to team upon new releases of FM, a few promising youngsters, some good experienced players, sprinkled with a few names that had promising youth careers but never quite made it. Fliting between using a 4-2-3-1and 4-1-4-1. Buballa having a great first half to the season as a wing back, Neudecker establishing a place in central midfield as a DLP. When fit Moller-Daehli getting assists and goals, and Miyaichi performing the same. The surprise for me is Henk Veerman up front, a 6ft 6in target man with no more than average heading stats, have him playing as PF(S/A), 11 goals in the first half of the season. Currently sitting 4th at the winter break, no signings made so far, well three Stoke players who have been put in the U23 team. Some deadwood look to be leaving during January, Hornschuh, Allagui and Schneider. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaggerPaul Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 One thing I've noticed is there are quite a few regens at the start of the game that are very promising, especially in Germany. Signed up four or five 15 years olds for my FCSP U19s. One not far away from promotion to the u23s/fringe first team, only problem, he can't play for either side until he is 17.

DirtyJoe Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Horn is probably the best GK in the Bundestag - $15.5 release clause and worth it. I always sign him for my Wolfsburg saves/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zlatanera Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Horn doesn't have the aerial qualities I demand in my current team - Aerial Reach, Command of Area, Communication - but he's always been a steal at around £15m on both FM17 and 18 for teams at the top level. Certainly you're not finding a better German keeper unless you're Barcelona, Bayern or Arsenal and you already have one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many teams with better overall potential levels of players, really; but there's not too much disparity between the first team players to the rest of the squad so the depth should be more than adequate to reach even higher than the level being expected from the team initially.

Some tough games to Finish up. In between all that is the small matter of the Champions League A narrow victory over Napoli 2-1 at home coupled with a 0-0 in Naples has seen me through to play Real Madrid. If I beat them over the two legs then it will be either PSG or the team who denied me the treble last season Man City who had lost their first leg away to United only to win 3-0 in the Etihad.

lblanc Posted December 27, 2018 Author Share Posted December 27, 2018 Borussia Dortmund Season Zwei Where I left off, we had 4 games left in the league, A German Cup final and a semi final tie vs Real Madrid League so 4 games left for an invincible league campaign. First up was RB Leipzig the team who ran me so close last season for the league and so far the only team to beat me in the Bundesliga A tight game but a 24th minute Jadon Sancho penalty was enough to win it A semi final with Real Madrid followed but more about that later, next up in the league was Mainz a win would see me break both the Bundesliga wins and points record. But it would have to wait, a spirited Mainz team scoring two in the last 5 minutes to draw 3-3, disappointing but we moved on Next up in the league was our Ruhr Rivals Schalke 04 at home. A stoppage time winner by Pulisic got me the Bundesliga points and win record it also dented Schalke's Champions League hopes. The final game of the season against the relegated Dusseldorf, win or draw and it was an unbeaten Bundesliga campaign, I'd like to say I finished in style but a simple 1-0 was enough INVINCIBLE!!! A great league campaign by Hannover seen them finish 3rd and qualify for the Champions League. Werder Bremen on the other hand had a season to forget getting relegated via the playoffs after losing to Holstein Kiel. German Cup An early goal by Pereira and another by Pulisic brought the Double, in a comfortable win. Champions League So the quest for the treble. The semi final seen me play Real Madrid In the first leg a late Pulisic goal gave me a lead going into the second leg at home, Paco Alcacer has missed an earlier penalty which would have made it more comfortable. But I needn't have been worried as at home we were fantastic 4-1, giving me a 5-1 aggregate lead. Man City would await me in the final after they convincingly seen off PSG 8-3 on aggregate (5-1 at home and 3-2 away) So that set up a rematch of last year. A chance for the treble and revenge... Pereira was the hero two goals , Pulisic and Reus rounded off a fantastic way to complete the season and the treble and full unbeaten season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillip, Wolf, Origi and Schmelzer may be others. One player who will not be a player next season will be Lukasz Piszczek with the Pole retiring and joining my U19 Coaching Team.

Playing in the Attacking midfield support role in the centre of Sancho (who overtook Reus mostly due to injuries ) and Pulisic on the right. I brought him in initially to provide an alternative to Gotze and Phillip in that position but he has over taken both of them. He does have a nice (Slightly annoying at times though when it comes off it's amazing ) tendency to shoot from distance and is amazing via any set piece close to the goal I'd say at least 12 of the 18 goals he scored for me during the season were screamers.

lblanc Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 (edited) Borussia Dortmund Season Drei So begins the 3rd season after my amazing treble winning season last year I have a lot to live up to. My expectations are to win the League and the Cup and to reach Quarter Finals of Champions League which i'm quite happy with and believe I can fulfill. Transfers Out: Guerreiro wanted to leave 63m was the most I could tempt from Spurs (Who seem to have a habit of buying my players Burki and Witsel)- [I shall play them in the Super Cup so it will be nice to come up against them. Philipp slipped down the pecking order last year and I didn't really play him so 22.5m was a good offer for him. Schurrle went to Burnley And the rest being youngsters i've sent to get game time, especially Arp who won't be ahead of Milik or Paco just yet, Origi is still at the club too and he played well last year when the other two had injuries his pace is an asset, I do have plans to sell him but it may wait until January or next summer. Transfers In Aaron Martin With Raph going I needed another lb to replace him as Horn isn't quite ready yet and Schmelzer is starting to decline (may also be sold) Martin while a bit expensive had a fantastic season from Mainz and as you'll see below has turned into a fantastic player Spoiler Adeyemi is someone Ricken picked up on and suggested at only 18 he is one for the future, he's in discussions to go out on loan to Rapid Vienna , he has some decent stats which hopefully he can improve upon whilst away. Spoiler As I also stated in a previous post I've taken on the side project of winning Olympic Gold with France The below is the 18 man squad I selected Not a bad squad 3 World Cup Winners (I would have selected Mendy too had he not been injured) Leo Dubois was selected for his ability to play both left and right back I shall update on that too in my next update which shall cover up to my first Bundesliga game.

They are always dominating and Werner is insane as well Bayern won the league first two seasons in my save but RB Leipzig dominated the third season, clinching the title by thrashing Bayern 3-0 in May. For me, I got my Dynamo Dresden promoted to BL1 at the end of the 2nd season, we were predicted 18th, and that looked spot on until November when we started a 16 game unbeaten run taking us as high as 4th at one point. Of course that was followed by a 6 game winless run though, and a 7th place finish. I somehow got Alex Isak from Dortmund for just £2.3m in the 2nd summer window after he requested a transfer. That and loans of the likes of Angel Gomez and Sheyi Ojo have worked wonders for us. Gedion Zelalem has also been a superb servant, signed for £250k in the first window he has been a first team regular from day one to now, consistently outperforming his 2.5 star rating and becoming a firm fan favourite.

matsnor21 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Last attempt on a long term Bundesliga save. After some tries with Leverkusen, i decided to give it a go with Mainz. Will do a post on it when the season ends. But just have to post a picture of the league table with 5 games to go! What a crazy end to the season.
