FS Massana - Youth intake 2022

So we just had the youth intake and I stole a bit of this from @Cheez3y! So thanks, mate! :D

The preview looked promising with an attacking midfielder being centre stage for the intake to come.

Here is the intake.

So a lot of talent, but little ability, as expected. However, Hernández 22d looks very promising.

Great mentals, but I don't agree with the coaches that he is a playmaker. That 5 passing is not enough. I'm thinking about making him a central midfielder, perhaps a Mezzela.

And here is the statistics and maps for those who likes it behind a spoiler tag:

End of Season Review

Season 2021/22

Jersey Bulls

Jersey Bulls F.C. - Wikipedia

League Table - We led from start to finish.

League Fixtures 1 & 2 - We lost just the one game, quite late in the season, which is very annoying as it isn't often you can go undefeated.

F. A. Vase - We reached the third round before going out away to ninth tier side Walsall Wood.

Combined Counties Cup - We made it all the way to the final before losing to Cobham.

Pre Season Friendlies - Mostly defeats as we hosted quite a few league clubs.

Squad - Decent enough squad, though we lack depth.

Squad Dynamics - Very good, as expected.

Transfers In - None.

Transfers Out - Just the one departure as Stephen Vaughan rejected a new contract and left for pastures new.

Youth Candidates - Not a great intake, though the likes of Max Coffey YP23A1 may develop into first team players.

Finances - We are a profitable club, so our bank balance is growing.

Key Players

Bert Kelly - Teenage striker who has been a sensation.  He scored an unbelievable 55 goals in 47 appearances.

Felix Ford - Central midfielder who had a great campaign.

Jack Fisher - A good season from the centre back.

Peter Ralls-Green - Playing on the left wing, he hit double figures for assists.

Ben Symes - This midfielder had a decent year, though he can play better.

Next Season

Another promotion or am I being greedy?

FC United of Manchester ; season 2030/31

Errea is named new technical sponsor of FC United of Manchester!

League Table ; A one year cameo in League Two as I get promoted as runner-up. It definitely beats the 8 years that I was stuck in the Conference! I also managed to get to the Third Round of the FA Cup, with a visit to Anfield bringing in about €1m in ticket money.

Squad ; None of the players are ranked as higher than League Two standard so next year might be a challenge. Having said that, none of my players are likely to be poached either.

Starting 11 ; Francis was again the main man; bagging 33 goals this season.

Transfers ; Absolutely nothing of note, which is fine by me.

Youth Candidates ; I am swamped with wingers and no decent defenders in sight. Charlie Taylor is the pick of the bunch.

Next season expectations ; Fight bravely against relegation in League One.

FS Massana - Youth intake 2023

The preview indicates an excellent intake and a goalkeeper is highlighted.

MFoqbbv.png

And the intake was really good. Two excellent players and more great ones.

gEFKNDj.png

Still, almost all of them are central midfielder, so I think I to do some retraining soon. I have too many of them!

8nNTbec.png

Great as a defensive minded midfielder, but also has good technique. Very interesting player.

IIxWuZy.png

This guy is more of a playmaker type player. Should become very useful.

Statistics:

Spoiler

Got in some African countries now, including 2 Zambians, one who is Zambian-Andorran, and I really don't think that's a common dual nationality! Also a Cameroonian-Andorran player!

YaAGU1x.png

I put the Basque flag roughly correct over Bilbao. If I had put it closer to San Sebastian or southern France it would overlap with the Andorran one too much.

Widzew Lodz (FM20)

Season 2 (2021-22) - Review

On the pitch

Starting 11

image.thumb.png.2d5e1546de332fb6fabcbacff88735f5.png

PKO Ekstraklasa – 1st. The polish top division features 16 teams with a regular season of 30 games, before the top and bottom 8 teams split into championship and relegation groups.  We managed to secure a fifth national title for Widzew, the first since 1997.  Our league form was patchy, starting extremely well before crashing in the second half of the season.  However, we did manage to pick up for our last 10 or so games and went into the championship group with a 4 point lead, eventually winning by 8 points.  

image.png.f73c94c05db48685bb767140c2bf8b73.png

image.png.393308d3e37e01eeb5b554c2d9e431e6.png

Polish cup – 1st Round. As defending champions I was hoping to be able to put up some sort of fight in the cup.  Clearly fielding a rotated team for our one and only tie in the cup was an error.  We were held to a 1-1 draw by lower league opposition and went out on penalties - the board were not happy.

image.png.40c3dca433d2a8a28f589c1e039dc751.png

UEFA Europa Conference League – 4th qualifying round. Our success in the Polish Cup last year meant we qualified for the Europe Conference League.  We didn't manage to make it to the group stages but we played very well in our tie with Everton, only losing out on away goals.  Our performances against Everton were very encouraging, particularly when considering they fielded near full strength sides, but Everton just managed to create a few more clear-cut and half chances.

Second leg

image.png.b76daf3d19b67bcdc316514025c7c0f2.png

Off the pitch

The board allowed me to complete more coaching badges during this season and sanctioned improvements to the training facilities.  Disappointingly though, there has been no option to request increased academy coaching or recruitment spend.  Our attendance was ~17.5k, putting us fourth highest in the league.

During the season we suffered a few fairly significant injuries, the biggest being that suffered by our eventual player of the season (despite missing the final third of the season) M Mozdzen, a 31 CM who plays as our playmaker.  Mozdzen was comfortably our best CM at the start of the season, but a hip injury (which will keep him out for 4-5 months in total) has already resulted in massive drops in attributes across the board.  We have a real shortage of decent CMs and I can only see Mozdzen declining further next season.  We will be praying to the youth intake gods for a CM next season :)

Player of the season

image.thumb.png.760e5bfc36c019cf2deb47e9c3c7ca03.png

We have some positive news regarding our 2021 youth intake (i.e. last season's intake).  One player in particular, M Klepczarek, is showing real promise and is starting to force his way into the first team.  M Klepczarek looks like a very capable CD and has already made 9 league starts at the age of 17.  Our most improved player from the 2021 intake is Jakub Budzinski, a striker who... cant shoot.  I am hoping he may be able to replace Mozdzen in the centre of our midfield in a few seasons, but certainly has a way to go to get anywhere near the level of pre-injury stricken Mozdzen.

Free tip if you don't know it already - in Poland you're getting a squad reward for playing u21 players (and homegrowns), around 500-600k for the highest amount of minutes in top division.

PS - Check what club your best striker was playing in :D

FS Massana Season 2022/23 review

Table | Squad | Transfers | Finances

Okay, I'm either a genius, or the league is very close here. And I actually think it's the last, since I'm only using a very basic 4-4-2 with very few instructions. Anyway, we won it! So we are going into Europe next season in the Champions League! Really amazing, but I'm having so much fun playing here in Andorra.

In the Protecvall Constitució Cup we beat Encamp before losing to Engordany in the Quarter final.

A couple of the youth players were involved this season. Albert Hernández 22d is a regular for the first team already.

ACS Kids Tâmpa Braşov - Season 2022/23

 

League - We had a great second season in the league pulling of a remarkable second place finish overall and qualifying for the Championship playoff.

Liga II Championships Playoff - With the fantastic finish to the regular league season we looked to bring that form in to the playoff picking up a win, draw and a loss in the first three games. Then my three star players decided they wanted a move to a bigger club great timing they all kicked up a fuss and we managed to go on and lose the remaining 7 games, just falling out of the last playoff spot. With it looking like we may have to move a few on I doubt I will get the same chance next season and luckily all the board want is to avoid finishing bottom again. 

Cupa Romaniei - Knocked out at the first try against lower league opposition again.

Finances were terrible and we were 150K in the red but the chairman pumped 250K in to help with the running cost which was nice although its back down towards the red again

Picked up the domestic treble again, and I think unless disaster strikes it will be a long time before we lose the league.

This was extremely disappointing. We finally got a group I thought we could get out of, and then we were smashed at home in our first two games, against St Gallen of all teams. I'm going to have to watch our home matches and see what's going on, because we are getting much better results away from home in Europe. So frustrating.

Not much has changed in terms of our strongest lineup, except for the fact that our all time appearance leader Selorm Mohammed 5B has been phased out by exciting youngster Shabani. Our CM and other Danish international Sten Toft has also been christened as a wonderkid, meaning we have developed three players given that distinction.

I completely forgot to screenshot the intake when it happened, but there's only one player missing which is our 19C. I was told this was a horrible intake. But we have a 5 star promising striker with a horrible personality (he will be subject to fines) and a driven 4* PA midfielder. So if that was horrible, I'd love to see what they think an excellent intake is!

 

Transfers

A few loans, but I think I won't be loaning players out anymore, it's destroying our depth.

Never saw anyone since my start in this challenge in Polish league with such amazing 2 seasons and great intake since start of this game even with Widzew which is ofc the best club you can manage in Poland ;)

It's been fun mate but I am slow at getting though the seasons and know nothing about Polish football - but enjoying learning.  I have discovered I hate Lech Poznan as they keep beating me.

My youth intake was great in the first season but poor in the second season, hopefully that was a blip and my new Model Citizen HoYD and some upgrades can help with that.

Forza Widzew!! (I doubt that's something a real Widzew fan would ever say... but i'm still learning :))

Not just in Poland..................anywhere!  Pretty damn good to finish top in consecutive seasons, we have the next Mourinho :)

That's my third season cursed lol.  Tbh, Widzew are a big team out of position due to relegation for financial mismanagement so maybe not as impressive as it looks at first glance - but I appreciate the positive word. Thanks!

Our success is in no small part down to a tactic I built just for this type of 'underdog' save.  I think this sums us up pretty well, loads of fouls/yellow cards and loads of crosses into the box.  Big Sam would be pleased.

FS Massana - Youth intake 2024

The preview tells of a promising left back from Spain, and a talented midfielder.

8sCpdx7.png

So, there are two promising left backs, but I don't know which is the midfielder. Lots of talent here though, albeit mostly very poor personalities.

vHM1Y5Q.png

zET9TFY.png

Aleix 24f is the promising left back. Not bad for this level, I'd say, and he is not far of the first team.

Statistics:

We got in a Romanian and a Malian to add to the statistics, also quite few Andorrans this season compared to what I'd expect.

The best players all on long contracts.

Only Massini is not willin to sign a new one.

But tbh, he can go. He is a midget to be a keeper.

 

Viggo had his best season.

And Kirkerod and Kosberg played a solid first season.

Our success is in no small part down to a tactic I built just for this type of 'underdog' save.  I think this sums us up pretty well, loads of fouls/yellow cards and loads of crosses into the box.  Big Sam would be pleased.

In Poland in first 5 seasons if you don't win cup and league its quite almost impossible to do something you will strugle to what other teams are buying and to quality of your intake. You can't compare quality of them and at the end basicly its hard to hold your players when foreign clubs will start to get for your players. The seasons are long and that is the bigest problem. In Polish league now PZPN is changing structure so in season 20/21 only one team is relegated from tier 1 and 2 becouse they will change Eksstraklasa league size to 18 teams and remove the promotion and relegation group stage so after update mby in winter you will be able to play faster in Poland.  I mainly have in every FM around 10-12 seasons in Polish league and in fm20 I have bigest success with fanmade database of 6 tiers of league when I get Arkonia Szczecin from bottom of no where to one 2nd place in Ekstraklasa and 2 Polish Cup Winners + 2 quarter finals in Euro Cup :)

FS Massana Season 2023/24 review

Table | Squad | Transfers | Finances

We retained the title, but our go in Europe showed me that I'm not the genius as I hoped to say. Still, a domestic clean sweep is a very good season, and it helped out financially as well. I've gotten approved an improvement of the youth facilities that are under construction, and I'm trying to increase everything else as well. Still, the intake this season was worse than before, so I think we need some better players to do well in Europe.

In the Protecvall Constitució Cup we beat Lusitanos, Carroi and Santa Coloma to reach the final. There we beat Atlètic Escalades to claim our first cup win.

In the Champions League we had a very short first stint when we lost to Welsh side TNS in the 1st preliminary round.

Then we went into the Europa Conference League where we lost to Icelandic side Breiðablik in the 2nd qualifying round.

We got our 2nd player from Kosovo, but this time born in Kosovo.

Also we got our 2nd South American from Venezuela.

And Finland made his debut.

FS Massana - Youth intake 2025

A central defender is something I need, so happy to see the preview showing that one is one the way.

Pretty good potential-wise. Not very good personalities though. I'd change my HoYD if there were any good one available, but there isn't.

Javi Sevilla 25f was the promised central defender, and I'm quite happy. Good in the air, great bravery and not horrible technicals, so I'm more than pleased.

Statistics:

Not much new things to show here, only a couple of new cities.

ACN Siena 1904 - 2026/27 Season Review

2042979112_FinalLeagueTable.png.edcbe460675f36cb58f3e16e0c4ae515.png

For the first time in my six year stint in charge of ACN Siena 1904, we finished in the top half of the Lega Pro Girone B, which allowed me to challenge for the right to be promoted to Serie B through the playoffs. We managed to beat Teramo 3-1, but were eventually beaten 2-1 by Pontedera in the 2nd round of the playoffs. Pontedera were beaten in the Semi-Finals by eventual winners Südtirol, so I'm not that concerned by it. We did miss out on the chance to relegation our rivals Sambenedettese, who were eventually relegated anyway, but of the biggest thorns in my sides have finally been dispatched. Which for me is delightful.

380665482_MircoScarpato130627.png.51a3e92a1f7e24b38123b26d0bca247b.png

We had a new player step up to the plate this season. Micro Scarpato has come of age this season after I made the call to drop Rokas Krusnauskas, who despite scoring over 70 goals for me in the last five seasons, I felt wasn't going to get any better and our younger strikers were going to be hindered if I didn't give them a chance in the near future. So I took the risk with Scarpato and he grabbed the opportunity with both hands. Scarpato scored 17 league goals this year and scored 2 goals to help us beat Teramo.

We managed to upgrade our training facilities, our youth recruitment and junior coaching after the end of last season. I just wish I knew how much it would cost to maintain overall though. That wasn't fun.

Table | Squad | Transfers | Finances

Woop! Quick seasons are so much fun! And we did another domestic clean sweep, although it was not as easy at it might seem! We were not first for a long time in the league, and it was only because of poor form from Atlètic Escalades that we won it with a nice margin. We still are very poor in Europe though, so we have a lot to work on.

In the Protecvall Constitució Cup we beat At. Amèrica and Engordany to reach the final. There we crushed Carroi to claim the trophy. 

In the Champions League we got thumped by Kazakh side FK Astana in the 1st qualifying round.

Over to the Europa Conference League where we really lost the first leg big to Ararat-Armenia of Armenia. We did just about win the return leg, but overall we lost clearly. So still not much progress in Europe.

Well, I’m for the first time in this challenge having an awkward moment where I don’t know what my best formation is. So it sounds somewhat silly, but I’m at a stage after 6 seasons that most of the original team has been replaced and that I’ve got so many potentially talented players that are trained on positions I don’t use. What an annoying headache for have.
