  1. After playing with both Liverpool and Leverkusen for the first two months after the game was released, i decided i wanted a long term challenge. I usually don't go further down then Chamionship, but this year i wanted to try something different, and choose to start with Oxford United. They have a really interesting team, with a lot of them also capable to come on the journey further up the divisions. 

    Didn't want to do that many transfers, but strengthen the squad with Rhian Brewster on loan from Liverpool and Brandon Fleming on loan from Hull. Only transfer out was Jamie Mackie, who returned to Scotland and Patrick Thistle.

    Had a very good Pre Season, specially pleased with the win against Charlton. One draw against Dag & Red, they had one shot on target (!)

    I've finally got a Bundesliga game open and have taken over at Bayer Leverkusen. Apart from a couple of months at Gladbach many years ago, this will be my first German effort. Hopefully it lasts for at least one full season!

    It's also my first time ever using a transfer update, so I've lost Brandt to Dortmund but have a handful of new signings that the club has made. I've also made some transfers of my own, and pre-season is complete. My philosophy will be to sign/use young and/or German players. I like the fact that they don't have any U23 team or B-Team, in fact not even a full U19 team. This means I have a very manageable group of players to focus on (at the club) with no loan players here and only a handful away on loan (ones that I didn't want).

    Wich transfer update do you use ?

  3. Got a crash dump on previous save with 1. FSV Mainz 05, so had to start over again. Did well on  my previous save, finished 2nd in Bundesliga with 62 points in the first season. Will also this time playing a 4-2-3-1 gegenpressing inspired tactic. And stick with the same system, not mine it up all the time, with i did the last time. 

    Have started very well, and after 7 games in Bundesliga we are 1st, with 6 wins and 1 draw. Will upload after the season.

    Just bought Francisco Trincao as well, he will be joining us january 1st.

     

  4. So the difficult 2nd season with Mainz is under way. Its been a busy transfer window, shaping the squad with some real talented players. With so many young players its going to be some ups and downs this season. But were hoping for at least a Europa League spot. Its going to be tough, with the other teams improving their squad with a lot more cash than we. Especially Bayern , who has signed Julian Brandt and Federico Chiesa!

    Really happy with the transfer window. Got some quality in, Palacios and Almada will be in starting line up, the rest will rotate and be given a lot of game time as well. Going to be more rotation than the last season, since were now in Champions League, Not the worst group , but not the easiest either.

  5. I have always loved to play in the Bundesliga, even more this year after the league was licensed. Was after a long term save and in the end i decided for Mainz. Purely because of my admiration for Jurgen Klopp, and Mainz will of course play a gegenpressing style. And rely on buying young players for the future. The board wanted avoid relegation and the bookies tips was 14th place. But with the right addition and some luck i was hoping to fight for a Europa League Place.

    Absolutely love playing with Mainz, they have some real talents. We were doing good in the league from the first kick on the ball, way ahead of the expectation. When we came to the winter breake we were 4th and we started dreaming about a sensational place in Champions League. RB Leipzig were flying in the first half of the season, 10 points ahead of Bayern before the 2nd half of the season. But with two straights defeats in january, and we suddenly were sniffing on a league win.

    It was so tight, as you can see in my previous post, and with 3 games to go we had RB Leipzig home, and would with a victory be on level points. 2-1 to Mainz, after a 93 minute goal from Pierre Kunde. That win meant that with two match days to go, Mainz, RBL and Bayern all had 59 points. Unfortunately we lost the next game away to Frankfurt, and Bayern beat Leipzig. And they were crown champions!

    On the last match day both Werder Bremen and Hertha Berlin got past Dortmund and RB Leipzig , and stole the Champions League spot away from them!

    But so happy with the first season. Going to be a much tougher 2nd season. And will try to bolster the squad with a good bbm.

  6. Love playing in Germany. Even more this year after the licencing. I usually play with Leverkusen, but after winning Bundesliga 1st season, i got bored. 

    I want to do a long term save in Germany, and need a challenge, so decided to start with St. Pauli. A team i always have wanted to manage om FM, but havent until now. Will update after the season. 

  7. Started with my annual Leverkusen save, always a fun team to managed. Playing gegenpressing style.

    Still early on , but just had my best comeback ever on FM i think. Home against Dortmund, they absolutely counter attacked us of the field in the first half. 1-4 at half time. Switch from 4-1-4-1 DM to 4-2-3-1 and substituted Aranguiz in as a box-to-box, and this happened.

  8. Llama, just started with Arsenal, playing a 4-2-3-1 formation. Playing good attacking football in the pre season, but my opponents get to many CCS. Do you have any suggestion ? I have no PI on this tactic.

    GK (D)

    FB (S) - CD (D) - CD (D) - WB (A)

    BBM (S) - DLP (D)

    W (A) - AP (S) - IF (S)

    AF (A)

    Team Instructions: Shortert passing, pass in to space, work ball in to box, play out of defense, push higher up and use offside trap.

    Also going to change the DLP to CM (D), because I'm on the verge of signing Lars Bender.
