Looks like you've had quite a few elite talents coming through past few seasons and a number of decent players under 25 so looks promising for next few seasons.

Any of those coming through stand out?

Seems your Brazilian full back is doing well!

 

He is doing ok, but do seem to concede load of goals at the back post because he is so small

We don't seem to have a full squad of decent players ever. Still too many poor players who are L1/Championship standard

when he first came through he was labelled the next Roberto Carlos so was hoping for more to be honest

Paris 13 Atletico Season 1 2024-25 Midseason Report

Championnat National 

Overall a solid first half to the season with us being in 9th position at the half way mark. We have not scored many goals, only 21 in 17 games, but we have conceded less, 19 goals.

I have been able to complete my studies for the National C licence and I have started studying for my National B licence.

Youth Intake Preview is an absolute shocker, if the intakes is really this bad it will be a major disappointment.

Olot UE Season Review (45/46)

Europe

We completed the challenge...almost! We never made it past the quarter finals before and I thought it would be our end point again when we drew Man City. We somehow managed to sneak two wins despite being 2nd best in both games. We had less issues with AC Milan, which we dispatched easiliy in the home leg. In the final we encountered Dortmund, an all by all manageable opponent I thought at first, but a look at their team saw that this was wishful thinking. They were by far the better team in the first half and we were lucky to be only behind 2-1 at that point. We were more dominant in the 2nd half without creating too many chances, but luckiliy an individual action from José Manual equalized close before the end of regulation. They then lost a man with a 2nd yellow card just before extra time: a golden opportunity. Unfortunately we were unable to take advantage and we had to settle for penalties. I don't believe ever to have won a penalty shoutout in this save, as the game refuses to deliver a player who can kick a penalty (the highest rating for penalties is 10). My pessimissm seemed to be justified and we lost 4-3 on penalties :(

League

Our fourth title and by far the easiest of the bunch. Barçelona and Real were shocking this season. We were also less dominant than previous seasons, but we were ahead so far and won the title with 4 games to spare.

Copa

Our second copa win and our second double. A 94th minute header by Joan Miquel Sollivelles gave us the cup win

Youth intake

It took 22 seasons but we were finally able to upgrade our Youth facilities to State of the Art!

Olot_Y22_youth_facilities.png.107042502427b361d446d84f6180bb3b.png

Our HOYD got poached to become head coach at Alaves so we had to look for someone else. Johannes Wimmer first intake was not spectacular. By CA it's about the worst in 6 seasons. There seems to be a talended GK, but we'll see in a year of 5 to see how they've developed.

NXGN

3 players in the NXGN, but the first one only in position 9. We're playing less and less youngesters so I guess this makes sense

Cyrille Delorge(AMRC; Perfectionist)

A very exciting prospect, who I promoted to the first team. Unfortunately he seems to be quite injury prone which affected his playing time.

Best XI

A lot of players with an average rating above 7. In goal Josep Lluis Guso has shared time with Robert Alsina, although his potential seems to be at about the same level. Emili Dominguez at left back is our best player, with an impressive 7.43 avg rating. Alfred Vazquez is an enigma, his attributes arent't that good and he's only a decent first division player, but his production...  Joan Miquel Sollivelles followed up an injury ravaged season with the best season in his career, scoring 26 goals across all competitions.

Quite a good intake:

- Is a first team starter: Miquel Angel Puigoriol and Fernando

- Is a rotation player: Antonio Berenguer

- is close to the first team: Jan Figueras and Oscar Lara

Next Season

This season we said goodbye to some long serving players, I might do the same next season as it's time to get the next batch of youngsters playing time. And oh yeah, win the CL.

I've been lurking again for the last week or so and getting caught up on what's been going on since I burnt out of my save a few months back. Some massive completions and @XaW deciding the challenge isn't hard enough for him in its standard form! 

I'm getting back into my Merthyr Town save in their first Premier League season. I'm just hoping to not get embarrassed every weekend, This Newcastle game is definitely one to forget.

Paris 13 Atletico Season 1 24/25 End of Season Report and Youth Intake Review 

Championnat National

The second half of the season was better than the first half as we fought for 4th place, but really no higher for much of the time. However finishing the season with a couple of losses saw us finish in 7th place. A very good season overall but a team expected to be fighting relegation.

?imw=5000&imh=5000&ima=fit&impolicy=Lett 

My best players were Deep Lying Playmaker Dylan Nzeza and his partner in defensive midfielder Anchorman Moussa Diarra. My two inside fowards Ounare Tounkara and Abdelmalek Amara both had excellent seasons as well.

Youth Intake Review

The preview was as bad as it gets, no talent forecast at all. Fortunately the reality was a bit better but still quite disappointing. No elite talents and only 4 top talents means there will not be a refresh of the first team squad. The best of the poor lot is Cedric Favreau 25a but he is nowhere near the first team.

My Profile

I managed to complete my National B licence and I am now studying for my National A licence. Hopefully they will continue allowing me to get new licences when I achieve the previous one. They however did not approve any other upgrades.

CSC Ghiroda - SuperLiga - Romania - Season 7 - 2031

SuperLiga

We are 7 seasons in and still have an extremely hard time staying in the league. I dont really have the feeling that our team is getting better, especially because pretty much all of our initial players we had at the start of the save are gone now. We could not generate a lot of money on the transfermarket so far, so we havent had a lot of opportunities to improve our facilities. However on last years intake we got an absolute beast of a player, Badea. His overall was good enough to be a starter, he is probably one of the most consistent players we have, he has a professional personality and he develops like crazy. Rumors say, PSG is interessted in a transfer but no offer has been made so far.

image.thumb.png.10f133b39dab0832c86ce808f4bb1631.png

This season we managed to stay out of the relegation battle for most of the time and ended up 6 points ahead of a relegational playoff spot. I have the feeling we got kinda lucky in a lot of matches, but sometimes thats all you need. A thing I really like is that a lot of players that had their first season with the first team, ended up playing a huge role in achieving our goals: Pozinarea our young striker scored 15 goals and therefore only one goal behind of our all time Superliga goalscorer (Andrei David, 16 Goals a season). Nitu, a guy that was in our academy for 4 years and developed very well during that time, had most assists of all of our players. Badea, I mentioned him above, 17 years old, CM, 10 goals, 8 assists, 4 times player of the match, what a beast. He will probably be the first player we will sell for a very big profit and therefore will help us to improve our facilities to get/make better players.

Cupa Romaniei

We had the chance to reach the semi finals and we ****ed up big times. This was the first season where both, league and cup, did work pretty well for us. We reached the quarterfinals and got lucky: our oponent is a team from the second league. We had in our hand but we couldnt use the chances we created and lost unlucky.

Youth Intake

The preview promissed us a good Full Back and since that is pretty much our biggest problem at this point, I really hope they didnt lie to me... they did. But we got another outstanding CM, however this time he doesnt have a good personality, so I hope my 21 year old mentor can somehow change that. All in all Im pretty happy with that intake, we signed 9 players but no one who will jump into the first team imediatelly.

Awesome CA, he is an outstanding playmaker, who will be promoted to the first team next season but as a back up. He needs mentoring to hopefully improve that unambitious personality.

#2 - Olah -Striker

Spoiler

image.thumb.png.36734baeb8f222299549b29b4eada37a.png

Smart player with good finishing abilities and professional personality. For now he will stay in our U19 but I definetly see him in the first squad in the near future.

#3 - Necula - LW

Spoiler

image.thumb.png.128bba24c91deb48c08bb28757df085a.png

Good pace, good technique and crossing but he lacks mentality. However he got a personality and will probably develop himself into a regular starter in the near future. 

Facilities and Finances

We are still paying back the credit for the new stadium, yet this is the first season where we never had a negative balance so thats a win for sure. Our facilities are improving even more. We finally managed to max out our Youth Recruitment!

Thanks @XaW. I actually really liked the gritty style of @Mahzun_Savas example logo, so I have stole that one for now. But good to know for the future.

I used to have Photoshop so know exactly how to do it there :) Alas no longer am I blessed with that!!

Yeah, I just find it easier to just let the forum do the work when I find a logo and paste it in here. Also, I use this site to remove backgrounds, if there are any.

I usually retrain players, and I do it alot. As I've written before, I have a spreadsheet that shows how well their abilities fit into different roles based.

Spoiler

This overview I can put into roles and give it based on roles.

This allows me to see how far off a "perfect" player they are. And if they are very high in a certain role, then I will look at it and perhaps retrain. Of course, I can't trust this outright, as players with high physicals will rate high in all roles that require many of the physical attributes, but it can give me some hints where to look.

Very impressive spreadsheet! Might look into something similar to really get invested in to all of my youngsters and not only the best of the bunch every year.

Luverdense - Brazil - 2031 - Season 5 - Campeonato Brasileiro Seri B (Tier 2) - 9th

Another season of mid-table. We're slowly improving as the old squad get replaced by the youth intake. We had improvements approved in Youth and Training Facilities and Junior Coaching so we should see the effects there.

We managed to sell a player for 5m. We were trying to sell off one of our prospects to FC Porto with a sell-on but they wouldn't bite. Then there was a news article where apparantly one of the Serie A teams were going to buy our right back for 5m. I didn't believe it but I offered him out and Flamengo bid 5m. Lovely. His loss did weaken the team, but it's not too bad.

One area which I like about Brazil is how quickly the players improve. We don't have amazing facilities but there's green arrows everywhere. We managed to get a lot of the prospects on long contracts so I think we just need to be patient.

Green arrows everywhere.

Another disappointing youth intake. Henrique comes straight into midfield, but not much else. We need a striker and a right winger and the first XI looks good.

image.png.3b71ef528e056eee880ee071863dfe69.png

 

 

So after a break from FM for a number of months, I'm to progress this challenge. I'd completed Vanuatu and then moved to Brazil where we'd done 5 seasons. I'm going to pick up from this save. I'm a long way behind XaW so we've got some catching up to do.

 

@XaW 4 down, 2 to go. Very impressive. Am I right and you left Germany after a few seasons despite being in the Bundesliga?

Luverdense - Brazil - 2032 - Season 6 - Campeonato Brasileiro Seri B (Tier 2) - 1st (promoted)

So I picked up the save after a few months mid season and we were sitting top of the league after a good start to the season. I'd looked back at my previous post and said I needed patience. We ended up winning the league by quite a gap. 

I started remebering the players. In particular Eduardo Henrique came through our youth intake last season and is already a starter at 16. The growth in his stats in one year (see below) is unlike anything I've seen before. Some of his stats have increased by 3 in one season. Unfortunately he won't sign a new contract as he wants to move to Santos. Hopefully the promotion will tempt him to stay. He looks like a really good player. 

We haven't had a good striker come through an intake yet. However, Lourenco scored 45 this season, but surely he isn't good enough for the top flight. 

The board want us to fight bravely against relegation in the top flight next year. We're predicted to finished 19th out of 20. As usual, staying up is the goal.

I didn't get a screenshot of the youth intake, but it was decent. This guy came through.

Livorno | Season 2032/33 | Serie C/B

FPgluMs.png

JW2ojyj.png

Our best season with leading on xG and a number of points that would be enough to win any other group… but who cares if we lose playoffs like this? Must win the division to avoid this lottery next time.

Squad stats

TLf26aX.png

Rossini became our all-time leading goalscorer at the age of 22! :applause:

Two new players stand out here – Formichi who replaced club veteran Sabattini in the first eleven and eventually finished the season with the highest average rating, and Viligiardi (he moved from U18 team to a backup striker role but what’s more important – became our first player in the national youth squad).

Transfers – another previously A-rated prospect left us without any progress, and the biggest surprise was Roma signing a player without high potential even for Serie C level (is he related to someone of their board? :D

Youth intake (preview)

K2mje1S.png

Stabile *33a | Catalano *33b

Poor intake, I only offered contracts to 7 players out of 16. However two previous intakes proved their quality, winning U17 Serie C for the first team (previously we had a few final and semi-final defeats) and a supercup against Napoli (well that’s a real surprise).

Our attendances are rising, and we finally managed to make some profit during the season!

So close again @Anners

How many times you got to the Final now?

Sorry Padders, took a few days off!

Twice in the last 3 years now. I'm in a decent spot for maybe 3 more years with the players we've got, so we've still got quite a big window to win it.

Luverdense - Brazil - 2033 - Season 7 - Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A (Tier 1) - 11th

A very satisfactory first season in the top flight, finishing mid table. We had a slow start but then pulled clear of relegation and stayed lower mid table the whole season. This qualifies us for the Copa Sudamericana. Nothing much else happened. The youth take was disappointing. A good right back came through but we have plenty of talent in defence. We still need a striker and a right winger and a bit of patience and we'd have a good team. Another mid table season next season will be most welcome.

Moura

Remember the Denmark save I started last week? Yeah me neither, anyway I returned to my happy place of Portugal with Moura.

The Season was painful drew so many games I almost took up art, we won 5 of the last 6 games which saw us survive on the final day of the season

The Team was good but very thin luckily had no major injuries to anyone but this is FM so that's going to change next season

The Intake came in after the season had ended so no one has made their debut yet but there's a few decent players here who could play some minutes next season

Facilities wise nothing changed were broke but not in debt so overall a pretty positive season
