And all 4 losses were away games.

[Cheez3y]

August 2025 - Chinese FA Cup - Semi Final - First Leg

Almost a perfect month.

Newly promoted Nantong is 3rd.

 

Coming Up

After the final WC quali games we play Guangzhou FC.

Also its time for the CL.

[Cheez3y]

Squad - September 2025

Its time for to finish the WC quali.

Two home games should do it.

Guoqing is gettin his cap, he always performs for us from the bench.

 

[Cheez3y]

September 2025 - AFC World Cup 2026 Quali - Final Stage - Game Day 9

Should've won this game, but a draw is good enough for us to qualify for the World Cup.

 

[Cheez3y]

September 2025 - AFC World Cup 2026 Quali - Final Stage - Game Day 10

And with a solid 2:0 we finish the WC quali.

 

Japan, China, Qatar and Iran will represent Asia from this group.

[Cheez3y]

He looks incredible for his age. 

Have many Chinese players gone to top European clubs?

Sadly no, beside some crappy one in the Portugese 3rd/4th tier.

There is only Wu Lei still at Espanyol.

 

Bing could be one.

I would love to sell or let him go for free to a club from Belgium or Holland.

[Cheez3y]

September 2025

Tough game against Buriram in the CL. We only could beat them after pens.

Taishan is struggling this season.

 

Coming Up

We cant get enough Guoan this season too.

This will be a tough away game.

[Cheez3y]

We never won the league that early.

[Cheez3y]

Squad - October 2025

Dragon Action!

Only one friendly this time. Nepal asked for it.

Obviously Lin Bing gets the insta call up. He is already a 4 star player for China.

The other debut is Wang Feng from the Taishan academy.

[Cheez3y]

October 2025 - Friendly

Smashed Nepal.

Bing with a solid debut.

I also tried our Chanpeng, which is a natural IWB on the left as right WB.

Dont remind me off that. 

After this save I will post this in the bug/needs improvement part of this forum.

 

Because this one here, cant be right.

October 2025 - AFC Champions League - Quarter Final

Beat Guoan pretty convincing.

Edited January 8, 2022 by Cheez3y

[Cheez3y]

October 2025 - AFC Champions League - Semi Final

Only 4 days later we played Ulsan.

We beat with a solid 2:0.

[Cheez3y]

We play Al-Duhail from Qatar.

 

Al-Duhail f.k.a. Lekhwiya is one of the biggest teams in Qatar.

They are 7x Qatar League champions and a regular in the CL.

 

Small fun fact for me:

In my KSA save we played them 10 years straight with Al-Fateh.

[Cheez3y]

October 2025

Champions!

 

Coming Up

Couple of league games, but more important we can go for the perfect season.

Yeah agreed. Needs to be something like only 2 players per club can be loaned to them, and if you've played 10+ first team games then you can't be loaned to them.

In principle its a good idea to help develop a nations younger players. It does seem however that in FM it doesn't really work.

Congrats on another league win. Now to top it off with the champs league win.

It should work like the military club in South Korea.

They use the same mechanic here for this team, simply because they didnt bother to chance the inbox massage. It always says "player xyz is loaned out for military service".

The idea is great, but atm there is no team like this in the 3rd tier in real life.

 

I remember couple years ago the Chinese FA and German DFB had a partnership, so that a U20 can play in the 4th tier of German football.

Due to protests this obviously failed.

 

Ty. It would be almost the perfect ending to my time at Shenhua.

But I want one more year, to make sure Cuisance will be a Chinese player.

[Cheez3y]

Squad - November 2025

One Dragon game in November.

Bangladesch asked for it, every team plays against them

 

Sadly our boy Yougang is injured, so I give Ziru a call up.

He came through the Orlando City academy and got some interesting numbers.

[Cheez3y]

November 2025 - Chinese FA Cup - Final - First Leg

Really nice performance from the entire team.

[Cheez3y]

Wenfeng came through the Steelers academy recently.

He is an A+ and 2* CA for Shenhua.

 

[Cheez3y]

November 2025 - Friendly

Nice game vs Bangladesh.

I saw some really nice movements and passing from the boys.

Ofcause I subbed in Ziru and he scored 3 minutes after.

[Cheez3y]

November 2025 - AFC Champions League - Final

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO..What a final!

Lin Bing with his first start, because he can play in the CL.

He assisted the goal from Ida and 6 minutes late deflected the ball into our own net.

The 2nd half was also a 1:1 draw, which means extra time.

I decided to sub out Ida and bring Shihao on.

He assisted the 3:2 from Ribamar.

[Cheez3y]

November 2025

The league is done.

Promoted Nantong did and finished top 4.

One game left and its the 2nd leg of the FA Cup.

[Cheez3y]

Squad - December 2025

Its time for the EAFF.  After two 2nd places, I want us to win this!

Couple debuts again due to injury.

Sadly I couldnt call Wang Dalei and give him a nice sent off....

[Cheez3y]

December 2025 - Friendly

Quick friendly against Vietnam before the EAFF.

[Cheez3y]

December 2025 - Chinese FA Cup - Final - Second Leg

And we finish the season with our 4th title of this year.

[Cheez3y]

End Of Season Review 2025

Perfect season!

Ribamar with 36 goals this season.

Cuisance with couple less this season, but Ida got those.

 

Again not a strong rebuild, I need to wait anyways and see what the 01 NT takes away.

[Cheez3y]

End Of Season Review 2025 - Stats

Ribamar and Cuisance both will break the all time goal record next season.

Sadly we are still a 3 start team...

 

[Cheez3y]

End Of Season Review 2025 - Awards

Not only wins Wang Dalei the GK award, he set a new record in his last season for Shenhua.

[Cheez3y]

Hmmm...the Shanghai Port job is open again.

They had couple of notable coaches, which all failed over the years.

 

But there is on problem....

1) Idk if they want me.

2) This would be goin from Celtic to Rangers.

[Cheez3y]

World Cup draw happend...

We play one of the hosts in Canada and Switzerland.

We need to beat Canada to get in the next round.

[Cheez3y]

EAFF Championship 2025 - Game Day 1

Solid and unspectacular win against North Korea.

[Cheez3y]

EAFF Championship 2025 - Game Day 2

It feels so nice when you can see a steady progess.

The team is starting play exactly like we play at Shenhua.

Quiang Cao is finally gettin the balls he needs.

[Cheez3y]

EAFF Championship 2025 - Game Day 3

Tough game vs Japan, but a draw is good enough for us.

[Cheez3y]

Lets see if someone pays his 28 mio release clause.

[the_hdk]

goin great! no risk of Cuisance snubbing China?

[Cheez3y]

End Of Year Review 2025

Really nice 2025 we had.

We qualified for the World Cup and we won the EAFF Championship

We climbed again in the WR, this time 6 places.

And Wu Lei became the record goal scorer for China.

[Cheez3y]

I think he is save.

He didnt ask for any release clause, he loves the club, he loves me, he speaks fluent Chinese, he is on decent wages.

There were two bids last sommer from Bundesliga teams and he didnt get made.
