Magnificent Godfrey - A Zambia Dynasty Save

Recommended Posts

After @ToMexico!!'s new adventure in Mozembique I decided to do another African dynasty save after my interesting save in Ivory Coast.

This time I have decided to go to Zambia.

I don't know why I went with Zambia but I liked their flat and that is surely a good enough reason :D

What a beautiful flag and look at their kit as well. Very jazzy.

So let me explain the reason for my thread title.

Magnificient is the knickname for the Zambian club I have decided to manage which is Kabwe Warriors.

Godfrey is Godfrey Chitalu who is Zambia's national team highest scorer with 79 goals from 111 games for Zambia. He was the Zambia version of Pele. He also scored over 500 goals in 700 games for the 2 clubs he played for.

The main club he played for was Kabwe Warriors where he got over 300 goals in over 500 games for them.

One hell of a record. 

My aim is to find a striker who can surpass what the great Godfrey did.

Here is a photo of the great man.

Kabwe Warriors FC who's knickname were Magnificient & Railman. The stadium is named after Godfrey Chitalu as well.

Kabwe historically are the 2nd greatest team ever in Zambia but have not won a league title since 1987. That is too long to not win a title for this great club.

Achievements[edit]

1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1987
1967, 1969, 1972, 1984, 1987

1973: Quarter-Finals

They don't have the best facilities but I like a long term project and my aim is to try improve the facilities and coaching as quickly as possible and also try bringing through some Zambian players to play for the national team who I will also be managing in this save

Club Objectives

I can't sign anyone over 30 years old and I have to sign players under 23 years old for the first team. I also have to sign players to sell for profit which will be very difficult but I like a challenge.
I only have to be in the top half of the league in my first season which is achievable.

Standout player is of course Leicester City player Patson Daka but they also have a good core of players to go alongside him.
I will post updates as I go along.

That’s going to be one big challenge! It’s not just the striker you’re looking for either :D

Looks like you’ll need to become the national team in club colours :brock:

Mid Season Update

It has been a good season so far for club and country. Lets start with country and so far Zambia haven't lost a game yet since I have been in charge.

image.thumb.png.63645377d5841e6deb7443199c4aef8f.png

I have only played 2 competitive games with a 1-1 draw vs Tunisia and then a 6-2 victory vs Mauritania

Kabwe Warriors Season So Far

image.thumb.png.0be87195ae9587e0e67e918ea1b28e8c.png

Currently 2nd in the league and had a few losses lately and left Green Eagles to have a 5 point lead on me but hopefully I can hit form at the right time and close that 5 point gap.

Aka Mwachaiba is my goal machine and I will be giving him a chance with Zambia soon enough. With 23 goals so far he defiinitely deserves it.

Hopefully I will have a good run at the CAF Champions League and help Zambian football rise up the rankings.

2 x Back To Back 3-3 Draws For Zambia

image.thumb.png.d8e9cfb9ec223f96b657188e32bf47b8.png

Still unbeaten in the World Cup Qualifying stages. 2 very exciting 3-3 draws for a neautral fan but for a Zambia fan it was very frustrating as I was winning 3-0 in both games only to concede 3 goals in the 2nd half of both games and in both games I concede in the last few minutes grrr:seagull:

Still very close with us only 2 points behind Tunisia. We should be looking at winning our remaining games and anything other then 2 wins for me would class as a failure

Finally An Upgrade

After making some money with my progress in the CAF Champions League I managed to convince the board to improve academy coaching and youth recruitment. I am hoping this continues so we can get some good future Zambian superstars.

4 years ahead of schedule as well.

It was a close one with us only winning by 2 points.

My star men were Aka Mwachaiba who scored a whopping 46 goals in 36 games.

My other star man was Jimmy Ndhlovu who scored 29 goals and got 17 assists in 36 games.

These 2 were the reason I won the title and I will be looking to reward them with a few Zambia caps soon.

I am still in the CAF Champions League but I I assume it carries on next season.

Talking of the National team I managed to win them 2 remaining games with a 3-2 win Vs Eq Guinea and a high scoring 8-4 win Vs Mauritania.

Zambia now play Senegal in the next qualifying round.

Well after Patson Daka fired my Fenerbahce side to a quadruple, I definitely have a soft spot for Zambia!

Good job in getting to the world cup :thup:

Cheers mate. Patson Daka is unreal. Zambia have some very good players and definitely some hidden gems if you are decent rep team in England. France etc.

Kabwe Warriors CAF Champions League Journey So Far

image.thumb.png.796fc7afee4849cfbafac2cab15fe37c.pngI have managed to get through the group stage just with us winning the last group game to snatch it.

The extra money from our CAF Champions League progress has made it possible to improve the training facilities.

We now have ES Tunis in the next round.
