  1. Baxters Basque Ball Season 2026/27 The Team Our defence got stronger. The Tactic Still employing a simple Gegenpress. The Transfers Alvaro Fernandez is our new backup keeper. Jon Martin tightens our defense, Aimar is a technically gifted winger and Karrikaburu gives us more options in attack. In the Winter Transfer Window, we signed another winger in Ivan Martin. Williams´s departure is a blow but we will cope. . The Season Finish We finished in 3rd position this time, securing Champions League Football again. We concentrated strictly on the league, which came at a cost which you can see below. In the Copa del Rey we went straight out in the 3rd round against 2nd division Taragona. A disgraceful result. In the Champions League, we went out in the group stage after only winning one game in the League Phase. The Team Stats New signing Aimar managed double digits in goals & assists, as did Djalo. Those, alongside with Sancet were the our best players this season. Ok, let´s add Villalibre to it with his 19 goals. The Youth I love the intakes! Castro looks like at world beater at 16.
  2. Exactly. This is bothering me for quite some time now though and it just somehow hinders the flow when reporting updates. In Germany and Austria this has not been a problem iirc. It´s nothing dead serious but still...
  3. I really don´t like that the spanish summer transfer phase in summer is splitted in two. Thats confusing for reporting transfers in career updates like this.
  4. Baxters Basque Ball Season 2025/26 The Team A new keeper. But he should still be good enough for us. The Tactic Still employing a simple Gegenpress. The Transfers Unai Simon wanted a new challenge and left for Brighton after his contract ran out. So we brought in Kepa on a free and Ezkieta as his new backup. From our youth we promoted central midfielders Ellakuria and Alboniga. Plus wingers Quevedo and Olabarrieta and striker Adrian Perez. A lot of players were loaned out. . The Season Finish We finished in 4th position this time, securing Champions League Football again. In the Copa del Rey we made it to the final this time. But unfortunately Real Madrid really gave us a beating there. Still a respectable effort. In the Champions League, we managed to qualify from the League Phase, only just missing out on direct qualification for the R16. And so in the playoffs Atleti beat us. The Team Stats Kepa turned out as a great signing for us. David Garcias 12 goals as a central defender are impressive though, making him our top goalscorer. Most of these goals came from corners of course. Midfielder Alboniga stood our from the youngsters with an impressive 7.12 average rating. He could became a really good player. Alboniga was the Young Player of the season. The Youth Not as good as the last 2 times but still very good. Gurrutxaga already is faster than most of our first teamers.
  5. Baxters Basque Ball Season 2024/25 The Team New signing Bautista should ease the burden of our lone striker Villalibre in the many games to come this season. The Tactic Still employing a simple Gegenpress. The Transfers David Garcia bolsters our central defense, Moncayola adds options in midfield, Bautista is a backup striker and Rodrigues provides left back cover. . The Season Finish We finished in 5th position this time, securing Champions League Football again. We managed a nice win vs Champions Barcelona on the way. In the Copa del Rey we lost in the quarter final vs Sevilla. In the Champions League, we qualified from the League Phase, defeated Nice in the playoffs and then fell to Arsenal in the R16. The 2nd leg was a disaster for us. The Team Stats Sancet was not as outstanding as last year, but still one of our best players, alongside Muniain, Williams, Nunez, Lekue and Villalibre. We will promote some youngsters next season. Villalibre was on target. The Youth A wonderful intake again. Martinez looks very promising.
  6. I feel you. International management in FM is not too exciting... Take your time, I am sure you will do what is best in the end
  7. Yeah Let´s see how this turns out here...
  8. Baxters Basque Ball Season 2023/24 The Team The team structure looks promising. Simon, Vivian, Sancet, Inaki and Nico Williams are the best of the bunch. The Tactic Employing a simple Gegenpress. The Transfers We sold 2 important players in Nico Williams and Vivian. Money talks. We brought in 2 young talents. Djalo is a winger who can play in the 1st team right away while Vicuna is a central midfielder for our reserve team. . The Season Finish We end up finishing 2nd. A great achievement considering we lost 2 key players in the Winter transfer window. In the Copa del Rey though we went out in the 2nd round. The Team Stats Sancet was la Liga´s player of the Year. New signing Djalo also had some respectable performances. Sancet dominates our player stats. The Youth The intake was fantastic. Especially Burgos is shining bright.
  9. 7/24/2023 There. I said it before. Good conditions for a good start.
  10. Great choice! I had a save with them in fm23 i think and it was fun af! Strand Larsen can be Deadly up Front and Aspas should have at least 1 great season in him. I recommend keeping hold of Svedberg but i know this is hard. I think CD Dominguez will come good too. Have fun! I will follow 😀
  11. Yes, this surprised me a bit to be honest 😀
  12. The Lilies Without Baxter Season 37/38 Club Transfers In Transfers Out Bundesliga DFB Pokal Europe
  13. The Lilies Without Baxter Season 36/37 Club Transfers In Transfers Out Bundesliga DFB Pokal Europe
  14. Thank you Exactly! Thanks I´m glad you enjoyed it I will continue to post season screens of the post-Baxter era
  15. The Lilies April & May 2036 Results Yes. We did the double. But of course ****ing Bayern ruined our invincible record. I hate them. Bundesliga Table We have finally won the Bundesliga. Jung scored 32 goals and our players absolutely dominated the Player Stats. Youth Our U19s finished 4th but played a great UEFA Youth League again, again reaching the quarter finals. Season Stats This is the Lilies. Time to go. I stepped down after 5 matches of the New season. I will give seasonal updates on how the Lilies are doing without Baxter from now on.
  16. The Lilies February & March 2036 Results I don´t know what happened there. We won the 1st leg comfortably at Benfica and then we inexplicably lost the return leg at home 0-3... No Europe for us anymore this season. In the league we continued to score goals which is fine and widened our gap to 2nd place. Bundesliga Table 7 games and 15 points. Do you believe in miracles? Youth Intake Hey we got a "Top Talent" for a change!
  17. The Lilies January 2036 Results 4 straight wins in the new year. The defeat vs Arsenal was mostly because we played the bench players. Bundesliga Table 9 points, 1 game in hand. Could this be the season? Europe We made it to the round of the last 16 already.
  18. The Lilies November & December 2035 Results So we lost against Real Madrid. Happens to the best I guess. But right after that we drew vs Kaiserslautern at home! And we also were not able to beat Bayern at home. However, those 4 draws in the league strangely did not affect our 7 point lead though. Bundesliga Table We are still leading with 7 points somehow. Europe Looking good.
  19. The Lilies September & October 2035 Results Goals, goals, goals! And not one defeat! We are getting better and better, we even destroyed Red Bull. But we have to stay calm. Bundesliga Table 7 points ahead already. Tuchel doing Tuchel things. Europe A good start. Club News NO! NOT YOU AGAIN! First you lured Bleibtreu away from us and now you have the audacity to come for his successor already!?! **** YOU INTER!!!
  20. The Lilies August 2035 Results Who cares about this DFL-Supercup anyway? Then we went on to win the next 4 matches. Bundesliga Table A familiar sight. Europe Some familiar names there.
  21. The Lilies July 2035 Transfers Hicks is the only remarkable departure here. For a good price. Jofre is the future successor of Borza, Darwich is a wonderful German midfielder and Koniaris is the German backup for Jung. The others are talent to be loaned out. The Team Goalkeepers Absolutely no changes here. Key Player: Eiljah Smith Defenders Jofre´s signing can grant Borza some more rest. Key player: Christian Gambini Midfielders Darvich´s big plus is his versatility. Key Player: Wu Junjie Attackers Jung will need some rest at times. This is when Koniaris comes in. Key Player: Celso Jung Tactics Our tactic works well. Board Expectations The expectations stayed the same. Media Predictions 3 of our players. Jung up there as well of course. Pre-Season Friendlies Goals galore! We even beat Milan. Club News Of course I declined. But what happened next is just lovely! And then this was announced in the news.
  22. Take a bow to the quadruple winners! Fantastic season, mate
  23. The Lilies April & May 2035 Results Exactly. What. a. ride. We managed to win the DFB Pokal again (for the 4th time now) and made it to the Champions League final which we lost in the most dramatic way imaginable, after beating Roma and Barcelona (twice) on the way. I could rant about the ref now, but then again I have no words anymore, I am just proud of the lads! Bundesliga Table Of course there was no way to catch Bayern but this time I am not disappointed. And Celso Jung won the top goalscorer award again. Youth Our U19s were mediocre in the domestic league again but played a great UEFA Youth League again, again reaching the quarter finals. Season Stats Great Season. Great Team.
