Sn00gle Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Well it doesn't matter how hard I try I tried 4 tacticts with 0 go... If I get a lot of shots enemy just need 1 shot on my goal to score If I tie or I'm going to win I lose 3 goals in last 10 minutes Check match with Lech, Cracovia, Zagłebie, Tychy, Raków and Legia.. 6 matches 12 ekstra point that would hold as in middle table in fact we losing 10 to safe spot and no chance to avoid relegation I don't know what should I do more in this game hehe just my motivation to play went to -10 Edited January 15, 2021 by Sn00gle 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravenation Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Gainsborough Trinity 9th season. 7th place Vanorama National(promoted trhough play-off) - FA cup 1st round - FA-trophy WINNER The penalty team. 6 times during season we won close matches in penalties. 3 times in play offs - 3 times in FA trophy. We are extremely hard to score on - but still make very few goals. But we got promoted! Our new rivalry must be Chroley. In FA Trophy, we lead 3-1 away to 89th, they equalised to 3-3 in 92. 2 red cards in 1st half of extra time. Rematch was 0-0, before we took them in penalties. In Play off final we played 1-1 - before we again beat them in shoot out :-)))))) Someones staying down - others going up. Club will turn proffessional now - but looking at my youngstes and squad - it is going to be impossible in League two. Our 5-star striker wants to leave and we have no really reserves that can match him. It was a strange season. After 11 matches top of the league, then suddenly no victories for 3 months, for again starting to win matches enmass. I have organised my squads more, so i have equal amount of players to different positions for next season. 1 GK, 5 CD, 2DM, 4CM, 2ML, 2MR, 4AT. This way i need decide more who i wants to keep in each position and whos not. Unfortunately we need stadium expansion due to promotion - but i dont think we actually will need it, with our 1400 average attendance. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post shaunvamos Posted January 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2021 Kecskeméti 2027/28 Season Review They couldn't take European football away from us this time! An excellent second place finish after an extraordinary second half of the season. I don't know why we come back stronger than the other teams after the winter break. Maybe because we train? We did really well without our key midfielder Acsadi 3E, who left on a free to Parma. We defied all expectations. It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows though, as we blew a 3-1 lead in the cup to lose to a team in the division below. But that was only a minor setback in a pretty successful season. László Szabó 3D* - Gergely Nyerges 1D* - Milán Vörös 4E Although Csaba Berta was in the GK position in the Best XI, he isn't our best keeper anymore. The reason he started so many games is because our now first choice keeper hurt his spine and missed 6 months.Szabo has another excellent season at the back for us, but sadly it will be his last, as he leaves on a free to Slovan Bratislava. He's in the Hungary squad for the EURO too. We've produced someone pretty special. Voros has skyrocketed into one of our best players too, and he's wanted by Aston Villa. Overall the loss of Acsadi didn't really hurt us, but we definitely would've been stronger with him here. Youth Intake István Bódis 7A - László Gulyás 7B - András Szabó 7C It's only taken one season and we already have our replacement for Acsadi. At just 15 Gulyas 7B is already our second best DLP, and he will more than likely start next season at some point. It's a shame he has low self belief, because I believe in him. I'll fine him into believing in himself. Our other 2 5* prospects look good but the personalities are just terrible. Record Breakers Transfers Aside from the oft-mentioned Acsadi transfer, no one important leaves. Here's a screen of Acsadi: I suppose he doesn't really stand out, but he was excellent for us and for the Hungarian league. Progress 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLAB Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 ACN Siena 1904 - 2028/29 Season Preview So we're starting our 8th season at Siena and we are predicted to finish in 18th place, but despite that, our odds are only 33-1, which shows how tight and competitive this league really is. Are we going to be facing a difficult season? Most likely, especially since the board has outright told me that we are now only expected to finish in the relegation playoff positions. It's a bit of a relief and gives me a chance to experiment with the team and ensures that the team will be able to continue to grow stronger. Looking at the team report for both current and potential abilities gives me hope that the squad will get stronger and stronger as we give them more game time, allowing the players to be able to get to their potential. Give that the squad is an average age of just 20, giving us to be the youngest team in the league, pretty much saying that this team is full of potential and they will be likely to be making mistakes. It'll mean that we will need to be aware of a lot of potential mistakes more often than not. We also managed to secure a new senior affiliate in the form of Pacos de Ferreira from Portugal, something that I was not expecting at the beginning of the season. I can see ourselves potentially having some interesting scenarios going forward if we get promoted and become as good as Pacos de Ferreira or managed to somehow become the senior affiliate team if we become good enough in the future. I just worry that they might find themselves getting Italian players in their youth intakes in the future, but that's also me being rather paranoid at the end of the day. What can you do? 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazRTaylor Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) End of Season Review Season 2038/39 SV Babberich League Table - We had a much tougher season than last year, as we never really found the form we are capable of. We finished eighth, a drop of three places from last season. League Fixtures 1 & 2 - We started the season poorly and were close to the drop zone though we recovered to finish eighth. We lost 7-2 and 6-2 during the season which shocked me, as they came out of nowhere. TOTO KNVB Beker - We made it back to the first round proper before losing at home to second tier VVV-Venlo in an entertaining game as we went down 5-3. Pre Season Friendlies - Seven games and we didn't win any at home, though won all the away matches. So a typical pre season then. Squad - We continue to build the squad and we are not far away from being able to challenge for promotion. Squad Dynamics - As good as always. Transfers In - None. Transfers Out - Four departures including three for transfer fees, including a club record sale. Youth Candidates - Another fantastic intake, with right winger Herman le Couvreur YP39B274 looking like a tremendous prospect. Finances - Absolutely dreadful. We really need a cup run away to one of the big boys to correct this. Key Players Angelo Richard YP27C83 - Still our best defender and also the most consistent. Tjeu Voight YP31C147 - He continues banging them in, though he is under real pressure for his position. Ashar van Kessel YP32C163 - Our best player continues playing above himself on the left wing. Philipp Bonmann YP32B162 - He compliments van Kessel really well by playing out of his skin on the right wing. Pressen Rijssel YP25C51 - Now a veteran, the versatile defender can play anywhere across the back four. Next Season We need to get back into the top five.

TheWillsy Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Salisbury Season 2: 2022 - 2023 League / Comps / Intake / Transfers Another positive season in which we once again finished in a playoff spot, with slightly fewer points than last season. However, in the first leg of the playoffs our main right winger was injured so we had to throw in a youth teamer for his first team debut. What a chance to make himself a hero.... two yellow cards in the first half later and he was sent off . Needless to say we went on to lose. The intake was once again poor with no players able to go straight into the first team. We were able to upgrade the coaching and recruitment again but the added finances meant we are struggling with our balance somewhat. Due to our poor facilities aswell, we are getting next to no development out of our players also.. Having got part way through the third season, I think I will put this save on hold for now. A couple of important older players have retired and we have no one ready to step up. I'm finding it hard to get any development out of the younger players due to the facilities and with our balance steadily dropping I can't imagine we will be upgrading them for a while. I think I will look to restart the challenge with a team with either betting starting facilities, better attendance for finances, or a better starting squad. Maybe I will come back to this save if I fail with the next one 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tilling Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Spartak Nalchik - Youth Intake Season 1 Well, those personalities are terrible considering I've overhauled the coaching staff, but the actual ability is a massive relief given how bad the squad currently is. Best of all; look at all those wingers! Perfect for my current tactic, which essentially sees me sitting deep and kicking it long into the channels for the quick lads to chase. Big shoutout to this geezer, who instantly becomes the best striker at the club (read: I only have one). A quick lad with decent finishing and an unsporting personality?

XaW Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Teie IF Season 2028 review Table | Squad | Transfers | Finances So...uhh... that didn't go as planned. Relegated after finishing bottom of the table, not my proudest achievement in FM ever. But I hope we can bounce back next season as we are going back down to the 3rd tier. Honestly though, I'm not surprised we went down, we got promoted too fast and the teams here are clearly too good for us at the moment. So a season or two a tier down is not a big problem for us, I think. At least I signed up all the best players on as long deals as I could, so hopefully I can keep them the next seasons as well! In Norgesmesterskapet we beat Lørenskog and Arendal before being thumped by Sandnes Ulf in the 3rd round. Youth players of note: Managed to get him to sign a new deal, and he did wonders for us this season, being the one who really showed he can play at this level. And here is the striking partner who are much poorer, but scores more for whatever reason! 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In second half of season after tactic swap I had contact with safe spot but I guess just playing with only potential is not enough and we going back to Fortuna 1 Liga. On plus we were able to upgreat youth facilities and I should have money even with relegation to improve training fields (hope so) If chairman will listen even to me after relegation... Few young players get their chances but that wasn't enough to save the season. Nothing to talk about we joing @XaW this season and looking back in next season to get some quality and new tactic which I have a lot of problems and with atmosphere as well.

Steveh171 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Some ups and downs already very early in my season. So before the season starts my board decides to sell my best, and only competent defensive midfielder, and i couldn't protest! £47M in the bank after this, just what we needed. Had this guy from Serie C too, despite all of his whinging and moaning about wanting to move to a better club every few years. But on the flipside. After getting smashed in our first 2 games by Sassuolo and Atlanta. We've won 4 in a row and scored almost half the goals we got last year!! Beating Napoli, Benevento, Spezia and Udinese!! 23 points to Safety, no thanks to my board. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been lurking in the shadows last few days following everything. After a long week of work and one failed attempt I’m ready to go at it again, though may stick to more familiar surroundings with England. With the advanced database and loading players from unplayable leagues what is everyone’s general set up for English saves? Unsure which divisions to load.

keeper#1 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 South Shields January 1, 2035 Update We are playing really well. Taking all 12 points in November was huge and help move us up the table. Form becoming a little choppy as some injuries stack up along with the matches. Still in the playoffs. Hopefully, we are there when it counts come May. More wingers and goalkeepers into the system which is just adding to our strength. No mention of center backs at all in the preview so I'm taking as a good thing since they aren't being brought up as a weakness. Alya Bangoura 31F has closed in on Kevin Irving 28B as our top cap earner. Bangoura continues to get playing time for Guinea and will be representing them in the 2035 African Nations Cup where he will likely past Irving. Irving continues to get called up but continues to get passed over for the starting job. On the U21 front, the Welshmen of Guto Wynne 32J and Oli Hughes 31K are moving up both the appearance and goal scoring charts. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas_e Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Rimini Calcio FC Season Summary 2023 - 2024 Narrowly avoided relegation Our first season in Serie B after our unexpected play off promotion last season. We managed to survive, but the season felt like a long battle. We had 451-1 in odds to win the title, by far the worst in the league. Feralpisalo, the team tipped to finish second last in the league had 34-1 in odds... I spent more time tweaking the tactic this season than I've ever done I think. I usually have two tactics, one positive and one counter, but this season we never managed to control any single game. I changed tactics, switching between a very direct defensive counter tactic, and one counter tactic with more fluidity and counter press. This worked pretty well, but it was so obvious in most games that the opponents were vastly superior in terms of attributes. Some of the games we were so greatly outplayed it was actually embarrassing. Still, we managed to pick up wins here and there. Already in the first game we surprised everyone, when our striker Dardan Vuthaj chipped in the 1-0 goal in stoppage time against Spezia, a strong team who finished 5th! We spent basically all season just over the relegation zone. After christmas I was confident that we werent going to finish bottom three, but the teams finishing 16th and 17th play a relegation playout game, and I really wanted to avoid that. Luckily we managed to only lose one single game in the last 5 league rounds, picking up a great 2-1 win away to Ascoli and draws against Modena, Lecce and Virtus Entella. Off the pitch our season finished quite annoying, when I realised that the collective team bonus for finishing 15th place was £1,1 million. This was "normal" bonus, so it seems like a minor bug that our collective team bonus is almost more than we get in sponsorship income. This leaves us in the red and not in a position to upgrade anything. We also have very few first team coaches. Annoying! As I posted earlier we had an extremely good youth intake, absolutely of the charts!! Aniello Montesi was a massive upgrade in goal even though he came in to the side at 15 years old. For next season Samuele Di Fazio and Elvis Pransani will also have a place in the starting 11. Ruggieri and Massaro in midfield are also really talented, and I expect next years starting 11 to include 5 players 17 years old or younger. I am really pleased with how our talent situation is looking and I think we have a very solid foundation to build on. Player wise we have one big gap in the team. Our best player, by far to be honest, is central defender Matteo Ronchi. The problem is, he is our only good central defender. We have young CB talents, but they are quite far away from being ready for the first team. I will try to re-train our RB to become a central defender, but this isn't ideal at all. Hopefully some of our young CB's will take some huge steps in development next year! Season Summary Key Talents 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
XaW Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Teie IF Season 2029 review Table | Squad | Transfers | Finances We bounced back! I really rate how we played this season, and the defence looks better than it did last time we won promotion. The whole season it was 3 teams fighting for the top, Hønefoss, Hødd and us. And throughout the season we shifted places, but in the end we won the damn thing! So we are off to our 2nd attempt at survival in OBOS-ligaen, hopefully we can stay up this time around. A lot of the new youngsters have had an impact this season, so we are clearly improving the quality of the squad, most likely due to the improvements to academy coaching and youth recruitment the last few seasons. In Norgesmesterskapet we lost to top tier outfit Lillestrøm in the 1st round. Youth players of note: I still don't know how he scores so many goals, he just seems to be where the ball ends up and tap it in. Still had a great season. And with this guy beside him they scored loads and seems to have developed a great understanding. I'll also highlight our new first choice goalkeeper who scored 7 goals this season! 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afailed10 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) Padroense FC Season 1 review First season is done and we kind of breezed through the league with only 2 defeats in 25 games. We didn't have a great start with a simple 433 while I was trying to know the squad. We had no left backs, no u19s players and no more than 2 capable CM's so we naturally changed to a 343 system (5-2-3 Wide) to reinforce the central defence and make use of our attacking trio. Overall we weren't spectacular all the time but I thought we were quite balanced. In the play offs we drew away with Setubal and then beat them 3-1 at home with an attacking 442 since we were out of wingback's for that game. In the final we had 0 shots on target but won on pens. The youth intake was good but too early to say how good. Finances look worrying though. But bring on the 3rd division! Excited to include some newgens into the main squad.

Popular Post darren1983 Posted January 17, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 17, 2021 South Shields Season 2022/23 Review - Vanarama National league North League - Start of the season I went full tiki-taka and actually started well, hitting top spot early before it fell apart. We stopped scoring and just started dropping like a stone. We lost every game in the month of october and at that point I realised maybe introducing pep like football at national league north level with part timers might not be the best idea. I think I'm going to wait till we go full time and I can actually train players properly before trying it again. I realised we had a team of very fast attackers so went proper lower league, playing a asymmetric 442 and inviting teams on us and then launching the ball over them for our attackers to run onto. It worked. Very well. We ended the season in 2nd on 90 points just 3 points off the title. Had I changed even 2 weeks earlier we probably would have won the league. As it was we made the playoffs again. Playoffs - These were a struggle, Boston we overcame with them down to 10 men for a lot of the match. In the final we faced a Guiseley side we had beaten 4 times in a row so I feared them. We were tired and missing players with injury and suspension and as a result we never got going but managed to hold on and take it to pens - where we missed the first 2! Our keeper saved their first and then their final 2 as we squeaked over the line and secured promotion. FA Cup - We were shocking, this game came during our poor form before the formation change and I also rested many first teamers. No excuses though, we should never have lost this FA Trophy - a cracking run here which including beating 3 sides from the league above including the then leaders Scunthorpe. However we never showed up in the final Orient smashed us. 4 down after 30 mins and our key CB sent off (making him miss the playoff final 3 days later) before HT. This was shocking. Squad - Excellent after the formation change. We played like 3 months straight of Sat, Tues, Sat, Tues with this small squad and they kept on going. Almost cost us in the end. We also gave some minutes to young players where we could, and the final game of the season we played a team with 7 academy players starting as I rested my first team ahead of the playoffs Transfers - Obviously none in, lost a couple of young players to league sides but neither are a big loss Finances - still looking good, chairman wants to leave though and we're in the mist of a takeover which I don't like as this chairman has money and is keen to develop young players. I hope the next guy is the same. Youth Intake - A "golden generation". Yeah I don't think so. It's not bad though Hugh Slane 23A - Young striker I'm very excited by, especially in our new formation he looks perfect. gave him his debut at end of the season and he scored 2 goals and is now our youngest ever player & scorer. mentoring him to sort that personality thoughRicardo Bortolotti 23B - Italian/English CB, could be good depth for usRoss Trodd 23C - never hurts to have a keeper come through Career Update Season League Position Youth Recruitment Youth Coaching Notes & Achievements 2021/22 VNLN 5th Adequate Adequate First coaching badge 2022/23 VNLN 2nd Adequate Good Promoted via playoffs, FA Trophy runners up Next Season Stay up really.

Popular Post Sanno11 Posted January 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) Nuneaton Borough Season Review 2032/2033 Competitions Vanarama National League - 1st position - League table FA Cup - lost in 1st round FA Trophy - Runners up Well, this was definitely an improvement on last year! The start of the season was not anything exceptional and actually included a humiliating 8-2 loss to Boston. However, that aside we were playing well and scoring lots. Our form in the middle of the season was great and we were keeping pace with the top 3-4 teams, but I was still looking down, rather than up. We don't have a huge amount of depth in terms of quality, so when the key players were requiring rests we struggled to be as clinical. What got us over the line was the form we hit in the last 7 games (below). We hit top spot after the win against Chesterfield, who were currently occupying it. Then, against Gillingham, a 80th minute penalty was enough for us to keep hold of 1st place. Playing squad As I mentioned, we really only have a few good players at this level, the rest are developing towards this, or already out of their depth. Earlier in the season our superstar Ryan Woodward (29a) was again the subject of transfer speculation. This time I was powerless to stop him leaving. The best I could manage was to settle for the deal to take place at the end of this season and a 50% of next sale clause. It's going to be tough without him, We scored 110 league goals, but our top scorer only managed 20 of them, so it was well sshare out. Youth intake Not an iideal intake, no superstars, but in Mustapha El-Akchaoui (33a) we have our first truly pacey defender. I'll use him as a wing back to start with, but depending on how well his defensive abilities develop, he could end up as a centre back. Mustapha El-Akchaoui (33a) Finances, Facilities and Transfers A busy year for us. We managed to upgrade our junior coaching and youth recruitment again, this takes them to 'Good; and 'Excellent'. We turned professional as soon as the league win was confirmed. We are building a new stand , so we comply with League 2 regulations. All in all, a very good season.

The start of the season was not anything exceptional and actually including a humiliating 8-2 loss to Boston. However, that aside we were playing well and scoring lots. Our form in the middle of the season was great and we were keeping pace with the top 3-4 teams, but I was still looking down, rather than up. We don't have a huge amount of depth in terms of quality, so when the key players were requiring rests we struggled to be as clinical. What got us over the line was the form we hit in the last 7 games (below). We hit top spot after the win against Chesterfield, who were currently occupying it. Then, against Gillingham, a 80th minute penalty was enough for us to keep hold of 1st place. Playing squad As I mentioned, we really only have a few good players at this level, the rest are developing towards this, or already out of their depth. Earlier in the season our superstar Ryan Woodward (29a) was again the subject of transfer speculation. This time I was powerless to stop him leaving. The best I could manage was to settle for the deal to take place at the end of this season and a 50% of next sale clause. It's going to be tough without him, We scored 110 league goals, but our top scorer only managed 20 of them, so it was well shared. Youth intake Not an idea intake, no superstars, but in Mustapha El-Akchaoui (33a) we have our first truly pacey defender. I'll use him as a wing back to start with, but depending on how well his defensive abilities develop, he could end up as a centre back. Mustapha El-Akchaoui (33a) Finances, Facilities and Transfers A busy year for us. We managed to upgrade our junior coaching and youth recruitment again, this takes them to 'Good; and 'Excellent'. We turned professional as soon as the league win was confirmed. We are building a new stand , so we comply with League 2 regulations. All in all, a very good season. Hos is the economy doing?

If you need to use one to actually be able to start the match, then you can use one. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armeniar Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) No, no, no, no... As the article suggests, this is probably the end of the 34 y o Bekhechi's career. He's been our star player for many years and was still of use as mentor and back up in the Ligue 1. Now he broke his lower leg, which means he's 6-7 months out. What a way to waive goodbye to our club legend Edited January 17, 2021 by Armeniar 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope i will be able to sell someone - but the prices offered are to low. 250.000 Euro for a 5 star striker is just to little in my opinion - but with just 1,5 year contract left, i might have to take the tough decision soon Edited January 17, 2021 by ravenation Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLAB Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 I've been fighting the red since my current board took over the club. My previous chairman is now the chairman of Villarreal of all places, which is kind of funny now that I think about it... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeper#1 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 South Shields 2035 Youth Intake A reminder of what the preview was back in December. A lot of wingers. A goalkeeper. But not much else. Top player: A winger who can play forward. Next best: A CENTERBACK!!!!! Praise the lord! Finally, a top centerback from an intake. Bronze medalist: A goalkeeper Followed by more wingers. The HOYD was pretty much spot on with his December assessment. Ok. I'm really getting excited by this centerback. Driven personality. Already 50+ in his positional DNA and very smart. Needs to put some work in the weight room but that's the only drawback to what I see thus far. Hakan Yildirim 35A is a flashy winger that is getting converted into a forward even though his positional DNA says he would be better at center midfield. The problem I have with him in the central midfield is his lack of size and strength. I think he will be best suited to forward or either right sided forward. He has good speed and is a determined player. Needs some work on his game in the U18 team for a couple of seasons. Dylan Cole 35B is the center back that I have been waiting for. He's smart on the ball. Gets in the right places. A leader on the field. Puts the work in on the field. Can't wait to get him into the first team though a might need to wait a season or two. Already signed to a three-year contract with an "optional" two-year extension but we all know how optional that extension is going to be. Gavin Coleman 35C is the third straight quality goalkeeper that I've gotten in my intakes. The problem: there's only one goal to defend and I'm not allow to play with nine field players and two goalkeepers The nice thing is I'm allowed to slowly bring these goalkeepers along so they will be more than ready to go when it is finally their turn in net. Kris Peters 35D brings us some depth at the wingback/fullback position. The major negative to his game is his "Low Determination" personality. He also fits a trend that I've been dealing with since the start of the save....he's undersized for his position. Peters is going to require a lot of work before he is first team ready. Graham Robinson 35E is a winger who can play on either side. He's a defense-minded winger which is a nice option to have on the bench for seeing out games from winning positions or starting against teams that have really good attacking wingers. He could mark an attack-minded winger out of the game. Not the strongest mentally so that will cause him to spend some time in the U18/U23 teams working on his game. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
