Cheez3y Posted August 31, 2021 Author Share Posted August 31, 2021 (edited) January 2023 Part 1 A lot of games in January. We lost both games against PSG this season. But luckily the goal differents matters first. Edited August 31, 2021 by Cheez3y Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheez3y Posted September 1, 2021 Author Share Posted September 1, 2021 January 2023 Part 2 - Transfers OUT Only small chances. Batola, Kouao and Prigent are youth players. Bourigeuad and Wu Lei both wanted new contracts. But both players are on their peaks, so I rather cash them out. Benjamin is on a nice payday in China. Spoiler IN All players where listed and why not buy some quality. IRL I really like Poulsen, he is very underrated in my eyes. He was listed and why not bring in a friend for Damsgaard. Also Leipzig is paying a lot of his wages. The direct replacement of Bourigeaud. Bruno was listed, so the choice was easy. Once again Lyon pay half of the wages until the end of the contract. The direct replacement of Wu Lei and Giroud. Once again Atletico pays 1/3 of the wages until 2025. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you staying at Rennes for a lot longer or are you still planning on taking over other teams? Your welcome and thank you. At the end of this season the 2 1/2 seasons are over and Im leaving Rennes. Then a new journey starts with a new team. Im curious how Rennes will perform after my time in charge. In my eyes, they could become a power house in France. They got some great players now, 100+ mio in the bank and good dressing rooms. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheez3y Posted September 2, 2021 Author Share Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) April 2023 Part 1 What a final! 2:2 after the regular time. Nice scored in the 1. half of extra time the 2:3. We managed to score again in the 113. minute for the 3:3 And this happend in the 120+1 minute.... Back 2 Back Cup wins.

Cheez3y Posted September 2, 2021 Author Share Posted September 2, 2021 May 2023 Well...we couldnt keep up with our form till the end. But we gave everything we had, but PSG was too strong this season. Last season we won the league with 87 pts. This shows how good we are and how many pts the ACL injury of Neymar costs PSG last year.

Cheez3y Posted September 2, 2021 Author Share Posted September 2, 2021 End Of Season Review 2022/23 In the last year in charge we got a reallly good 2nd place. Last season we won the league with 87 pts, this years where 94 pts not good enough. But we scored 114 goals in the league! We won the Coupe de France again and the Super Cup. Sadly we went out of Europe like last season in the 2nd KO round. Roughly 100 mio in the bank. What a team. The defense is rock solid, the midfield decent and the attack is fn brilliant. Sadly Damsgaard had a rough year with a lot of injuries. What a great season from this man. 39 goals and 9 assists with an avarage rating of 7,55 And this as IF on the left side. Dembele came for 17,75 mio in January and this was a fn steal. 15 goals, 5 assists and 7,38 avr rating. You can called it "The Resurrection Of Nicolas Pepe" 30 goals...22 assists....7,57 avr rating. What a seaon he had, amazing. Chelsea and Man United are knocking already. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheez3y Posted September 4, 2021 Author Share Posted September 4, 2021 (edited) February 2024 Part 1 - Transfers OUT Cleared out some of the deadwood. Im sad to lose Abraham, he looks like a damn good player. But 13 mio is a good boost to make some changes. Spoiler IN The attack needed some options. At first we had not that much money, so Thelin and Piccoli were some budget choices. But after the sell of Abraham we spent some. I will try and focus on signing players from Germany, Holland and South Africa in the future. Just for the fun.

Cheez3y Posted September 4, 2021 Author Share Posted September 4, 2021 (edited) End Of Season Review 2023/24 We finished the season on a solid 9th place. With the right additions in the summer, we should be a top 8 and challenge for the euro spots. In the cup we got all the way into the semi final. Sadly we drew Ajax, but we played really well against them. Finances looking ok. If we can keep Stand Larsen and fix our problems, we got a decent team.

Cheez3y Posted September 5, 2021 Author Share Posted September 5, 2021 August 2024 Part 2 - Transfers OUT A pretty decent clear out. Players which featured last season where Eiting and Vavro. Both with 10+ mio offer, which I couldnt refuse. Then on deadline day the board accepted a bid for Strand Larsen.... I mean 20 mio is a lot of money, but yeah.... Spoiler Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheez3y Posted September 5, 2021 Author Share Posted September 5, 2021 August 2024 Part 3 - Transfers IN In the summer break we made couple of transfers. Thiago is a goody for me, as Bayern fan I cant say no to that. The former wonderkid Kuki join us a free from Valladolid. Two player from Sheffield Utd for free. Lowe, a backup LB and Luuk de Jong makes his return to Holland. And we reunite Zuma with two of his best friends Qwabe and Mdluli. Spoiler Then a lot of scout reports came finally in. We spent some money we got from the Eiting and Vavro deals. We need a main LB and with Lambrechts we found a real gem. Njie will the replacement of Vavro at CB. Lemne a really great looking midfield prospect. Nhleko will be our 4th South African player from Sundows, but Bologna was faster. And on deadline day Waters came from Ireland, he is another CB option. Spoiler Im excited and nervous at the same time. I think we got a great squad, maybe the another striker would be good.

Spoiler IN Ahhhhh....I cant stop buy good regens.... They are looking so gooood and are sooo cheap. Klein and Shongwe will not feature this season. Thorbjornsen will...I MEAN LOOK AT THOSE STATS!! FOR FREE! He brings he friend with him, the replacement of Lowe. After 6 months Nhleko joins us and his 4 Sundows friends. We got now 5 South Africans in our squad. I knew Harroui from my Morocco save and he is a decent squad player. Then we raided Gil Vicente, we took their striker duo. Lets see if they can pressure de Jong and Zuma.

Cheez3y Posted September 8, 2021 Author Share Posted September 8, 2021 End Of Season Review 2024/25 Really happy with this season. In the first half we struggled a bit, but after January the team really played well together. We even had the chance of winning the league. But we dry our tears with the Dutch Cup! The finances are looking really healthy. We got young, hungry and determined squad. Almost every player is wanted by atleast 2 teams in the big 5 league. I hope with the right additions, there will be another team then PSV, Ajax or Feyenoord winning the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
