shaunvamos Posted March 8, 2021 Author Share Posted March 8, 2021 (edited) We couldn't manage it, so now we wait until next year. Best XI Gabriele Capanni - Moisés Cartagena - Lukas Matejka Cartagena has an excellent season in his first season as a striker, Capanni does what he does best - assist, and I still don't understand why our CMs have terrible ratings.

shaunvamos Posted March 9, 2021 Author Share Posted March 9, 2021 2029 Preseason Excellent preseason. Transfers (In) Decided to spend some big money this window, in an attempt to make that extra step into Europe. I only hope they're worth the money I paid for them. Transfers (Out) Cartagena leaves without my input, Watford put in high offer and the board accepted. We do have a 30% profit clause, and he's now worth 35M so we could get some serious extra money for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaunvamos Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 June 2029 Extremely quiet month due to internationals.

shaunvamos Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 August 2029 Another comfortable month sees us qualify for another Champions League group stage. We have a pretty tough group. We've pushed Inter, but Barcelona are probably way too strong, and I'm expecting Leipzig to be good too. Also credit to FK Sarajevo, becoming the first Bosnian team to qualify for the groups!

shaunvamos Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 October 2029 Goals galore this month, as Inter flog us in the Champions League. Defence is a massive weakness for us, and we'll be looking to upgrade in the offseason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaunvamos Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 No one can say we aren't entertaining to watch! But we're into the Europa knockouts which is great. Best XI Gabriele Capanni - Lukas Matejka - Ljubo Radakovic The usual suspects appear again, joined by Radakovic who had a great debut season up front. We desperately need defensive improvement, but the guys in our scouting pool haven't been great. Hopefully things will be different this transfer window.

shaunvamos Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 Preseason 2030 Standard preseason. Transfers (In) I have big hopes for this guy. We managed to steal him from under PSG's nose so he must have something about him. It's also getting harder to find players above a certain threshold, so I think I'll raise the maximum age to 27 and see if the standard rises. Transfers (Out) Made a tidy profit on Andersson, and the rest were pretty standard transfers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunvamos Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 February 2030 We win another Super Cup and have an excellent performance in the Europa League to progress. Transfers (In) Another boost to our defence. Transfers (Out) Shanghai pay a ridiculous amount of money for Vitor Hugo and he's gone after less than a season with us. But his sale will fuel our European push for the years to come. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunvamos Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 March 2030 We had an exciting, but heart attack inducing second round knockout victory against Brighton. We now have reached our best ever finish in a European competition, and we have a chance to extend in a somewhat easy draw in Rijeka of Croatia. That being said, they beat Milan so they might be tougher than I think. Transfers (In) A temporary replacement for Vitor Hugo. Transfers (Out) A short CB who played one game for us relocates to Australia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaunvamos Posted March 14, 2021 Author Share Posted March 14, 2021 July 2030 A perfect month, one where we didn't concede at all which is very impressive.

shaunvamos Posted March 14, 2021 Author Share Posted March 14, 2021 We absolutely cleaned our Leipzig, but Lazio go through instead of us.

Best XI Gabriele Capanni - Lukas Matejka - Thomas Ceelen Even with all the new additions the older names still feature. The upgrades to the defence has helped, although it's still the weakest area.

shaunvamos Posted May 22, 2021 Author Share Posted May 22, 2021 I've decided to bring this back, but I was getting sick of playing the same 5 teams over and over again in Lithuania. So I resigned... Some pretty high profile candidates to replace me there! I think I've left Zalgiris in a pretty strong position, and hopefully my replacement continues the work I did there. But it's time to embark on new horizons. The options for me are jobs in Ireland, Bosnia & Herzegovina & Luxembourg. All intriguing options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunvamos Posted May 22, 2021 Author Share Posted May 22, 2021 From the best club in Lithuania, to the worst in the Republic of Ireland. Hopefully this is the beginning of another dynasty. It's a pretty thin squad, but not for long! A pretty cool thing to have as soon as I start the job! With a new country comes a new formation, and new transfer rules. I will now only buy players from nations that have a border (land and/or maritime) with the nation I'm managing in. So I'll be able to buy players from Ireland, Northern Ireland, England, Scotland & Wales. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunvamos Posted May 22, 2021 Author Share Posted May 22, 2021 Preseason 2031 A pretty good preseason in which the players just got accustomed to the new tactics. A pretty good win over Merthyr, and we kept things competitive against top division side Shelbourne. Transfers (In) We brought in quite a few players Most of them will start, and the rest are there for depth as we have a very small squad. We're not predicted last, which is a good thing because Wexford were predicted dead last before I took over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaunvamos Posted May 23, 2021 Author Share Posted May 23, 2021 The next manager of Zalgiris absolutely gutted the team I spent 10 seasons building in the space of a transfer window. He was the former manager of FK Sarajevo, who became the first club from Bosnia to reach the group stage of the Champions League in game (challenge is still active, I just can't manage Sarajevo when in Bosnia). They won the league in an invincible season, and made it to another CL group stage but have so far lost every game. So it'll be interesting to see how he will go as the rebuild begins.

shaunvamos Posted May 23, 2021 Author Share Posted May 23, 2021 Preseason 2032 Pretty good preseason, with a good win over top division Waterford. Transfers We've been undergoing a possible board takeover, and the embargo placed upon us meant that we couldn't shop for players, which is really frustrating.
