  1. 2024 EUROPA LEAGUE FINAL May 30th, Aviva Stadium, Dublin In their first ever season in Europe Brentford have defied all the odds to reach the Europa League final, while pre-season favorites Atletico Madrid prepare for their 4th appearance in the competition's final. This match will have extra significance as neither of the finalists qualfied for the Champions League through their domestic league (both finished in 5th). Atletico Madrid have never lost a Europa League final, winning all of their three previous attempts and with their quality and vastly surperior european experience they will surely be the favorites for this match, while Brentford will look to cause one final upset to win what could be the most important cup in the club's 135 year old history. On route to the final Brentford won a group containing Servette, Salzburg and Olympiacos, and defeated Galatasaray, Valencia and Tottenham Hotspur in the knockout stages, Atletico also won their group (Partizan, Dynamo Kyiv and St. Gallen) and overcame Gladbach, Porto and Lyon in the knockouts. The Match We've gone and done it! Europa League comes to Brentford at the very first attempt and what a story this has been! We started out brilliantly with two quick goals from Ryan Kent and our Europa League hero Cucho Hernandez to put us 2-0 up within the first 5 minutes. Our 4-3-3 formation was effective in controlling the match and keeping Atletico at bay and we could have had more in the first half. Trincao's penatly in the 77th minute brought Atletico back to life and gave them a glimmer of hope, but we held on for the remainder of the match and survived their attacks to win the match and the cup itself. A deserved win after a fantastic performance. This result caps off a fantastic season where we've won the double consisting of the League Cup and the Europa League. This is our first ever European trophy and indeed our finest achievement ever. Before the season I was hoping that we would reach the quater finals and gain some experience, but I certainly didn't expect us to win the cup when there were teams like Atletico or Arsenal and the media certainly agree that we were the overachievers and the most beautiful story of this season's Europa League. I will cover the season as a whole soon, but what a game this has been! We most certainly made up for that final day blunder against Aston Villa in Premier League's final match
  2. FEBRUARY-MAY 2024 Our form has been all over the place, with March and May being our best months in terms of results. Of course, we've been competing in the Europa League and the FA Cup, as well as that we had to play a Carabao Cup Final so it's understandable that we would drop some points, but we've had quite a bit of dissapoitning results, like losing to Everton, Bournemouth, Wolves or Villa. Our FA Cup run came to an end in the 4th round again, as this time we lost to Chelsea which was unfortunate especially as we were able to beat them in the league. The fact that the replay came jut before the Carabao Cup final certainly help. The pressure is now on as we will have to win this cup next season. That Aston Villa defeat was very costly as we bottled Champions League qualification on the final day of the season We've been in 4th pretty much the entire year too. We now have to do things the hard way and defeat Atletico Madrid in the Europa League final if we want to play Champions League football, and both sides will be up for it as the Spanish side finished 5th in La Liga. Elsewhere Tottenham have had an abysmal season as mentioned previously as they finished in 14th, 10 places lower than the previous season. Chelsea have nothing to brag about either as they miss out on Champions League football. Southampton, Blackburn and Fulham have all gone down. That match against Villa was especially frustrating as we dominated and should have easily won it. We couldn't finish our dinner and Aston Villa scored with one of their few attacks of the match. Not only that but Jayden Bogle got injured and won't be able to start against Atletico in the Final.
  3. UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Knockouts Second Knockout Round As group winner we went straight into the second round where we'd be drawn against an unseeded team. That team turned out to be Galatasaray who were knocked out of the Champions League previously. Coming into this tie I was confident as we had beaten teams of similar statue (Olympiacos and Salzburg) in the group stages and this was one of the easier teams for us to get on paper. This turned out to be true as we dominated in Turkey and managed to get an important 2-1 win in Istanbul. We won again in England after a closer match to seal a 4-1 aggregate victory. Quarterfinal The next round would be much more difficult as we drew Spanish giants and 2004 Uefa Cup winner Valencia who had finished 4th and 5th in the two previous La Liga seasons and were top of their domestic division coming into this tie. With players like Gaya, Soler or an in-form partenrship of Duro and Maxi Gomez they were very strong on paper and they proved it by beating Benfica 6-1 in the previous round. Despite the Spanish side being the surperior team in both matches we've advanced! The first leg in England has got to be one of the stranger games I've had on FM, we started superbly with a goal from Olise and it looked like we could beat Valencia comfortably. Then Kent and Renan both got sent off in the space of 31 minutes leaving us with 9 men, predictably Valencia then dominated the proceedings but they couldn't finish any of their chances as Raya, Ajer, Konsa, Bailly and Styles put in a superb shift and one of our few attacks resulted in a goal thanks to Cucho Hernandez. We beat La Liga leaders 2-0 with 9 men! With a 2-0 lead coming into the second leg we played counter-attacking brand of football and went up 4-0 on aggregate after 40 minutes, Duro and Vallejo made it 2-2 but it wasn't enough for Valencia as we won 4-2 and advanced into the semi-finals! Semifinal We would come up against a fellow English side: Spurs, the two time UEFA Cup winners and last season's Europa League finalists in the semifinal of the Europa League. Domestically they were having an abysmal campaign, they were 14th coming into this match, a massive downfall considering they finished 4th in the previous season. Spurs were also knocked out of the Champions League in the group stage, but fared much better in the Europa League, they beat Lille, Hertha and Arsenal (!) on the way to the semifinals. I was happy with this draw as we had beaten them before, they weren't at their best and Arsenal would be harder to beat but they were still the favorties. Tottenham didn't turn up in this tie and they looked much closer to their disappointing league counterpart rather than the team that got them this far in the Europa League. We dominated the match at the White Hart Lane, scoring three but Muriel's 90th minute strike gave Spurs a glimmer of hope coming into the second leg. That hope was quickly gone after Cucho Hernandez's double put as 5-1 up in the space of 19 minutes, Tottenham could only manage one goal through Son and we are through to the final in our first ever European campaign! In the Europa League final we will face 3 time Europa League winners Atletico Madrid, who will be determined to win the final as this could be their only hope of getting into the Champions League. Atletico were the favorties to win the cup at the start of the competition and have lived up to the expectations by reaching the final. This match reminds me a lot of Fulham who had a similary sensational run and lost to Atletico in the 2010 Europa League final, hopefully we can do one better than our bitter rivals!
  4. 2024 CARABAO CUP FINAL Against all odds we find ourselves in the final for the second consecutive season and we have a chance to defend our title. Unlike last time where we faced Aston Villa, this time Liverpool stand in our way and they are very much as strong as you'd think, coming into this match they are 2nd in the Premier League and of course they have a good history in the Carabao Cup, being the most successful side in the competition's history. The odds reflect that, with Liverpool being the slight favorites. Rico Henry is not fully fit coming into this match which means that means either Styles or Renan will have to slot in as the left back. MATCH We've done it! After a tight match in which we came from behind twice, we took the game to penalties and won. I'm not going to lie after Mane scored the second or when Keita was stepping up to take Liverpool's 5th penalty I was sure that it was over for Brentford, but we came back each time to win the cup and defend our title! This has got to be one of our best team performances this season. Just like last season, winning The League Cup secures our spot in the Conference League, at the very least but with us fighting for the Champions League spot I doubt that we will enter the competition. Still it is nice to be assured of something at the very least.
  5. JANUARY 2024 This has been one of the, if not the best month of my tenure at Brentford. No defeats in the league with 4 wins in 6 matches including victories against Man City and Man Utd, it's just a shame about that Blackburn result lol Still that run of form is enough for us to keep 4th spot coming into February. We also did well in the cups, battering Championship side Newcastle and pulling off a comeback against Wolves in the Carabao Cup. TRANSFERS We made two additions on the deadline day of the winter transfer window as we needed more depth with both domestic cups and Europa League making our schedule more packed. That meant that we signed 8 players this season, 6 of them coming on pernament deals. Renan arrives from Brazil for a cheap price of 8 milion and he is able to be both a DC and a LB, especially happy with this as clubs like Milan or Roma were sniffing around. Veretout joins to provide depth to our midfield and with no loan fees involved this was a no-brainer. He has fantastic technical attributes and if we want to buy him, the permanent transfer fee isn't large.
  6. 2023/24 CARABAO CUP SEMI-FINALS We were the better side in the first-half and probably should have taken the lead but we were poor in front of goal. Things went from bad to worse in the second half, as Wolves improved in the second half and delivered the sucker punch through Fabio Silva in the 84th minute. Plenty of work to be done ahead of the second leg at Molineux if we are to go through. The fact that Balcombe had to play due to Raya having a minor injury didn't help either. We found the finishing touch that we lacked at home as we beat Wolves 3-0 after extra time at their ground. Eriksen's goal saw the game head to extra time and the substitutions of Mbeumo and Brereton Diaz had great impact as they scored in extra time to seal our place in the final. Raya coming back made all the difference as Wolves themselves were able to create dangerous chances but our Spanish number one saved all of them and ensured that Wolves' Carabao Cup run would come to an end. Unlike last year where we were fortunate to play a team of similar strength in Aston Villa, this time the final challenge will be much more difficult as we face one of the best teams in the world and the most successful side in League Cup's history: Liverpool. We will have to play a near perfect match if we are to retain our title.
  7. 2023/24 Season: August-January 1st One thing that is very apparent is that we're not losing very many games (just one in fact), but instead picking up a lot of draws, 8 draws in 18 matches! Thankfully we've also won half of our games but it could have been more, a lot of these draws were as a result of us either missing key chances or conceding late goals, but this is the difference between a good side and a genuine title contender. Not losing to Man City away twice, Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham is a very good sign though. Our title defense of the Carabao Cup is progressing very nicely, through to the semi-finals where we will face Wolves in a match in you'd think that we will be the favorties. I honestly expected us to be eliminated by Man City in the Fourth Round, but switching to a 3ATB was a masterstroke as we held them off and won on penalties. Our form sees us in 4th spot at the beginning of the year and if we can keep up that run of form there is no reason as to why we couldn't snatch that last Champions League spot which would be a massive achievement, though Arsenal and Chelsea are very close in pursuit. Still I'm pretty confident that we will qualify for Europe again, whether be it for the Europa or the Champions League. This season also sees us make our European debut. We got a very kind draw (especially as we were the 3rd seed team) in Salzburg, Olympiacos and Swiss side Servette. 5 wins and 1 defeat sees Brentford comfortably win the group and advance straight into the second knockout round. That one defeat against Salzburg was a result of overconfidence and squad rotation, after the Austrians battered us I didn't rotate the team again lol Olympiacos made it through as the second place team and Salzburg dropped into the Conference League. As for our transfer dealings this season, here is the list of the players that we've signed. We took advantage of West Brom's and Crystal Palace's relegations to snatch Styles and Olise for cut prices. Olise is a fantastic player and a fantastic prospect and he'll be a great starting winger or a attack minded midfielder, while Styles will provide the depth that we need (he can play at CM, DM, LWB and I'm training him as a LB) Eric Bailly was transfer listed for just 4,5 milion pounds and for a player of his quality and experience that is a bargain price. Ezri Konsa returned to Brentford for 29 milion pounds in total and he will be a key part of our defense. Swedish midfielder Svanberg joins us after impressing at Bologna and I'm very excited about that deal, he is great as both a DM and a CM. Haller joined us on loan from Leeds after he was transfer listed on the final day of the summer transfer window, we only pay 50% of his wages with no monthly fee so that is a great transfer, we also have an option to buy him for 27 milion. He will be an impact player for the Premier League and a starting forward for most of our cup matches. In terms of our performances so far, Eriksen benefited a lot from switching his role from a Mezzala to a Central Midfielder on attack with him scoring more goals at the halfway mark than he did last season, not to mention 7 assists. Brereton Diaz, Henry, Bogle, Ajer, Kent and Raya continue to impress, while Winks and Worral have improved since last season. Olise, Konsa, Styles and Haller look like great additions already. I'm especially impressed with Olise, he's great as a CM(A) but even better as a winger and that resulted in Mbuembo being benched. Our top goalscorer is Cucho Hernandez with 9, but it's also worth mentioning how evenly the goals are spread around our attackers.
  8. END OF 2022/23 SEASON Since the restart of the Premier League after the World Cup break up until the Manchester United game we were superb, 9 wins in 16 matches with only 2 defeats along the way were an indicator that we'd be in a charge for European spots. This period was topped off with our first ever Carabao Cup win, but it was disappointing to fail in the FA Cup early once again, especially as Leeds at home should have been a winnable encounter. Since the Bournemouth match, with the exception of the Tottenham game (in which we were superb) we seemed to have ran out of steam, even the Fulham win was not a good performance from us, though we did have a hard end to the season with Man City and Arsenal. The poor end to the season did not cost us however, as we just about sneaked into 6th with 59 points, securing ourselves Europa League football for the next season. I've got to thank Leeds for beating Manchester United on the final day, as they would have overtaken us with a win! Aside from Brentford in 6th, there were no real surprises at the top of the table, all of the usual suspects secured themselves European Football in one form or another. Crystal Palace and Burnley were both relegated after having surprisingly poor seasons. This is how we lined up and performed as a whole. Brereton Diaz came up clutch in the Carabao Cup, being the main contributor to the success. Ivan Toney, Rico Henry, Bryan Mbuemo, Christian Eriksen, David Raya and Kristoffer Ajer all continued their good form from last season. Cucho Hernandez, Jayden Bogle and Ryan Kent all proved to be smart signings as well. Dissapointed with Winks, but I'm sure he'll come around next season. Our finances look very healthy at 70 milion and as a result of this and our success we've been rewarded with a 79 (!) milion pounds transfer budget for the next season. We'll need squad depth for the next season, as well as upgrades to our midfield and defense so all of this cash will come in handy for sure. The expectations of our play style and signing policy haven't changed much and I'm confident I'll be able to meet these targets. The board expects us to finish Mid-table in the Premiership and reach the second knock-out round of the Europa League, both are realistic aims and I'm sure I'll be able to do better than that with good transfers. Our facilities are coming up nicely, Great training facilities and Good youth facilites, I suspect we will able to be max these out soon enough. Sadly, the board is very stubborn in regards to out Junior Coaching and Youth Recruitment, so our intakes continue to suffer. Elsewhere, Manchester City defend their Champions League title to become the Champions of Europe for the second time in a row, Manchester United make up for their poor season by winning the Europa League (after they were grouped in the CL) to secure themselves Champions League football. Barcelona (!) had a terrible campaign last season, finishing in 6th and were ultimately forced to settle for the Conference League after Sociedad won Copa Del Rey. They made the most of it, by winning the cup and becoming the first ever side to have all of the European competitions (CL, EL, CWC and now EC2). In the Championship Norwich and Watford are both able to bounce staight back up, while Newcastle bottled the play-offs against Blackburn, who later went on to win promotion! The Saudi plan is not going accordingly.
  9. CARABAO CUP FINAL 2023 Against all odds Brentford find themselves in a final up against Aston Villa. Both teams pulled off an upset in the semi-finals, Brentford defeated Chelsea, while Aston Villa run out winners against Arsenal. Brentford have the opportunity to win their first Carabao Cup title, as well as their first major domestic trohpy, while Aston Villa have a shot at finally winning the competiton for the first time since 1996. With a Conference League spot on the line as well, both sides will be determined to win the competiton. THE MATCH Despite most of the predictions expecting this match to be a closely fought contest, Brentford were on another level in-front of the goal, as they took all of their chances, esentially winning the final in the first half alone. Aston Villa were able to grab one back through Buendia but it wasn't nearly enough as the London side take their first Carabao Cup title! We were truly the surprise package of the tournament, I would have predicted us to reach the semi-finals at best, but I didn't think we were capable of going all the way this early! A first trophy in just the second season is fantastic, even if it isn't one of the required ones. Of course the main prize of winning the Carabao Cup is a European spot, no matter what happens we will enter the Conference League, but so far we still have a chance of snatching a Europa League spot. Still it is nice to be assured of European competitions coming to us in the 2023/24 season and the Conference League is a competition we could realistically win. As I said previously, the Carabao Cup is significant to us. Brentford have finally won a trophy and hopefully this is a sign of things to come. Don't ask me how the game thinks the Championship is more important though
  10. Well, I certainly didn't expect that to happen! After beating Sheffield United in the quaterfinals of the Carabao Cup we were drawn against Chelsea in the semifinal where I thought our journey would end, but as it turns out the semi-finals this season were a singular match at a neutral venue, rather than an aggregate like in most seasons and we took full advantage of that by beating Chelsea for the first time in this save to reach our first ever final. Aston Villa awaits at Wembley and we're one match away from winning Brenford's first ever major piece of silverware and with Europe on the line stakes couldn't be higher. I'm hopeful that we can pull through as we had beaten them before.
  11. 2022 World Cup Break Mixed result as a whole. We've had a fantastic start gaining 7 points from the first 3 matches, including a 5-1 win over Brighton, to then go winless in our 9 matches, though we did have tough fixtures along the way (Man City, Tottenham, Liverpool). Thankfully 3 victories in our last 4 encounters saw us go into the break in good spirits. We're also having a nice cup run, into the quaterfinals of The Carabao Cup and our next opponent is Championship side Sheffield United at home. We find ourselves safely in 11th after the first 15 games, 7 points above the drop zone and only 4 points off 7th, with great form coming into the World Cup break. Could we actually make a push for Europe? In other news Brighton build onto their good finish last year (7th) and find themselves in 5th, 2 points off Champions League spots, Wolves are also impressing. Man Utd having a terrible season so far, stuck all the way down in 12th. Leicester seem to be stuck in a relegation battle, though 3 wins in their last 5 matches suggests recovery is on the way. Transfers We've made 6 signings in the summer transfer window. Thankfully it was easier to operate in the market with the board giving me 32 milion in the end. Rennes actually finished bottom of Ligue 1 and we were able to fully take advantage of it by signing Terrier and Aguerd for just above 10 milion, I have especially high hopes for Terrier and Aguerd will be a useful option at CB. Cucho Hernandez was signed from relegated Watford for a bargain price of 17 milion up-front, he was one of Watford's better performers last season. Jayden Bogle is our long term option at right-back, the fact that Sheffield United failed to get promoted certainly helped. We brought back SPFL's star Ryan Kent to the Premier League, paying a bargain 13 milion pounds total to Rangers. Harry Winks was transfer listed by Tottenham on the last day of the transfer window and we took full advantage of that, signing a key player for our midfield for a cut price. Squad: The key event of the summer was us managing to tie down Christian Eriksen to a new deal and he has performed well thus far as a creative midfielder. Ryan Kent and Jaden Bogle have proved great additions to the squad. Bryan Mbuemo and Ivan Toney continue their good form from last season. Terrier failed to impress thus far but he did have a couple of injuries so I can excuse that.
  12. END OF 2021/22 SEASON Our results to end the season were mixed, as you'd expect. On one hand we had a terrible time between the Everton and the Chelsea game, losing 4 of our 6 games, only beating Norwich, but on the other we later went on and finished the campaign with only one loss in our last 8 matches. The highlights included draws against Man City, Liverpool and Man Utd (at Old Trafford!), a double against Spurs and a 4-0 battering of Aston Villa. This enabled us to finish in a lofty 10th place! Surprsing, considering we only managed to gather 47 points and if you take a look it was a close affair, only 6 points separated 15th place Leicester and 9th place Aston Villa. Undoubtedly, this was down to our good defense, only the top 7 and Tottenham conceded less goals than us, that is something we must use as a platfrom in the next season. All in all, a great season and if we can get 10th again next year I'll be happy. I'd also love a cup run, as we exited the FA Cup and the Carabao Cup (Not my fault) in the rounds we started in this season, which is not ideal. Interestingly, both Brighton and Leeds ended up in European spots, while Tottenham had an abysmal season, but not quite as bad as Newcastle who got relegated on the final day Here is the squad overview. David Raya was the key figure, keeping 10 clean sheets in 31 matches and averaging a 7,14 average rating, the amount of times he kept us in the game is insane. I'd love to keep him but Real Madrid (!) is interested so we'll have to find out. Jansson, Ajer and Janelt were solid parts of the team and Ivan Toney was the top scorer. Brereton Diaz didn't start badly, but we will need to sign more capable forwards. The expectation for the 2022/23 season is to avoid relegation. I feel like this is something we can accomplish, the main question is can we improve upon this season? It will be hard as the transfer budget we've been given is only 10 milion pounds, so we'll need to sell before we can bring in the necessary quality. Last thing I'd like to touch upon are our facilities, which are abysmal for a Premier League club, but we are slowly working on them, the training facilities will be improved soon and I will ask the board for more upgrades for sure. I didn't even know this before starting, Brentford had no youth recruitment when I arrived so we have to start working from the absolute bottom lol We did get up to Youth Level 4, but I'm not expecting to get any quality youngsters for the first few years. As evidenced by the first intake, which is abysmal, no two ways about it lol Interestingly our best youngster to come through is from The Faroe Islands, but I'm not expecting much from him sadly, espeically with that personality. Still I will keep him around the squad for the noveltiy of having a Faroese player lol I mean he DOES have 15 finishing... In other competitons, the FA Cup was won by Liverpool, Chelsea won the Carabao Cup, Manchester City claimed their first Champions League title, Juventus won the Europa League after being knocked out of the CL and Tottenham won the Conference League, securing them Europa League football despite their abysmal campaign.
  13. NOVEMBER 2021-FEBRUARY 2022 We've been on a pretty good run in the league I'd say, 6 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses is an exceptional result for a newly promoted sides, with us almost only losing the games where you'd expect us to get battered, though that defeat against West Ham was annoying, but beating Spurs in the first match more than makes up for it! I was hoping that we'd be able to go on a cup run in the FA Cup and perhaps grab that trophy right off the bat in season 1, but all of my hope and optimism was gone when the draw announced that we'd be travelling to take on Manchester United at Old Trafford. To be fair, we did put up a fight but we were never going to win that match. These results leave us in a healthy 13th spot, 7 points above the drop zone and if the magic 40 points tally is to be believed then we only need 13 points in the remaining 15 matches to stay up, I'm optimistic about out chances but one bad run of form could see us in serious danger again. Also Newcastle in the drop zone With the winter transfer window behind us there were bound to be a few changes and I did make 3 new transfers. Brentford made 4 new signings in the summer but out of all of them I really only rate Bouna Sarr, Taider is already gone and Soares, as well as Valdez are merely rotational options. We did loan out a few of our youngsters and sell one of them, as well as giving one of them in exchange to Norwich, but none of them had Premier League potential so I was happy to let them go. On the ins we signed Joe Worrall from Nottingham Forest, Ben Brereton Diaz from Blackburn and Jacob Sorensen from Norwich, none of the players are above the age of 25, all come in with decent experience, at decent cost and I feel like those are exactly the type of signings that fit Brentford's real-life transfer policy. Worrall has all the key attributes to compete in the Premier League and indeed the coaches rate him as a decent Premier Division player, for just 5,25 milion we picked up a quality home-grown talent to bolster our defense. Brereton Diaz was needed as aside from the brilliant Ivan Toney our attack looked weak, with Wissa and Mbeumo not living up to the expectations. He looks decent enough and will be able to provide competition in all attacking areas, I plan to start him as an Inverted Winger on the left, hopefully he provides the spark that Wissa has lacked. Sorensen was the last of my signings, coming in on the transfer deadline day. I needed a good squad player and he will be exactly that, with decent passing and defensive stats and the versatility he provides (being able to play as a CM, DM, CB, RB and LB) I feel like this is a good pick-up, especially with the transfer fee not being large. Not to mention he's Danish and Brentford love their Danes This leaves our squad looking like this and I'm pretty happy with it, Toney, Raya and Ajer have been the main stand-out players so far and with Canos and Eriksen coming back things are looking up. Also, Balcombe is there to resolve the academy issue, Alvaro didn't play anyway, with Raya being the clear number 1 so I recalled Balcombe and made him the number two for this season. Also talking about Brentford's academy (or lack of) I've actually managed to convince the board to give us academy coaching, I'm not expecting anything in the first few seasons but at least that's a start, hopefully I can convince the chairman to give us more upgrades in the future. Not sure if it will come into play this season though, as we had no intake preview in December.
  14. I'm re-doing this challenge because I realised that I forgot to disable a custom database on my Watford save and now we're here, over at Brentford. I'd say that this will be around the same level of difficulty as Watford. Not to mention, the history of both of these clubs is very similar, as netiher have ever won any major trophies so there's a cabinet waiting to be filled! Those facilities need a lot of work though, on the flip side the transfer budget is higher than it was at Watford, but I have a feeling that our lower reputation will not be helpful to start with. The board expects us to play attacking, entertaining, possesion based brand of football while we're a newly promoted side, now that's a recipe for a disaster if I've ever seen one lol I will do a squad overview once the winter transfer window is up. The league standings are as follows, 19th place and 2 points off safety, not the worst position to find ourselves in but out first two fixtures are up against Spurs away and Man Utd at home, not great. And here is the manager profile, again it closely follows the main points in the manager profile section.
