The Lilies September & October 2029 Results We had a streak of 5 unbeaten games in the Bundesliga until we lost against Dortmund in October. We also did not lose in our three Europa League games, the highlight being the win against Braga. And we defeated Heidenheim to reach the 3rd round of the DFB Pokal where we will play at home against Mainz. Bundesliga Table Our unbeaten streak helped us climb to 7th. Europe Going to plan.

The Lilies August 2029 Results We played in the DFL-Supercup for the 1st time and predictably lost to Dortmund. Then we trashed amateurs Lichtenberg in the first round of the DFB Pokal and won very luckily at Leverkusen. Then we lost at home to Bayern again. Bundesliga Table Only 2 games played. Nothing to see here. Europe Interesting opponents.

Indeed! Thanks bud, we will be giving our best

The Lilies July 2029 Transfers We could not keep hold of Urbig after that offer. We got rid of some really old players like Promel and Roberts finally. We had to bring in a new first choice keeper so we signed Croatian national keeper Maks Galinovic. Winger Yildiz joins from Juventus where he didnt make it. Vermeeren and Neuhaus give us more options in defensive midfield. Samuels-Smith is going to give more competition to our central defenders. Queiroz is a talented right wing back, while Hicks is a deeplying playmaker talent which suits our tactics perfectly. Sosic is a quick left winger. Coulibaly was loaned out straight away for match practice. The Team Goalkeepers Galinovic is our new first choice keeper. Schuhen is the backup. John is just there. Key Player: Maks Galinovic Defenders Samuels-Smith improves our defense massively. Key player: Christian Gambini Midfielders More talent added to our midfield. Key Player: Ivan Ares Attackers Zeba should rock it again. The bookmakers see him as one of the best strikers in the league. Key Player: Danijel Zeba Tactics Those tactics worked well most of the time last season. Board Expectations The expectations are on the rise. Pre-Season Friendlies A great pre-season, resultwise.

The Lilies April & May 2029 Results An icredible April saw us reach the DFB Pokal final against Augsburg! We won every game in that month, solidifying our place among the top 6 in the league. We smashed Kiel 4-1, then won at Nuremberg, needed extra time to beat 2.Bundesliga outfit Mainz in the Cup semis, went on to score four against Hoffenheim, and another 4 to beat Bochum away. May wasn´t perfect but we managed not to lose against our bogey team Hamburg, lost against Dortmund and then won our first silverware by beating f*cking Augsburg in the DFB Pokal Final! Bundesliga Table We would have qualified for the Europa League even if we had lost the Cup Final. Zeba finished 3rd in the goalscoring chart and Borza in the assists chart. Youth And our U19 gfinally managed to survive in the National U19s league and not get relegated! Season Stats Zeba scored 21 goals this season which doesnt sound too much but considering he did it without playing in Europe thats quite good. Second best goalscorer was our central defender Janitzek who scored a lot from corners, but this looks strange I admit. Borza showed again that he is our best player, although Ares had more assists overall. More changes to come next season!

Yeah, seems like it but with your new (old) tactic you should do better now!

The Lilies February & March 2029 Results Not the best results. February began promisingly with the win against Freiburg and the extra time win at Regensburg in the DFB Pokal which sent us to the semi finals against 2.Bundesliga outfit Mainz. Struggling with weariness after that extra time win midweek, we lost at home to Leipzig. We were able to win at Schalke after that though which created some false hope because from then we lost to Leverkusen, f*cking Augsburg and could not even beat poor Paderborn at home!! So we rested some regular players and gave the benchers a chance in the next game. And see - they delivered, albeit very luckily: We won at Wolfsburg! Then we went to Stuttgart and lost again. Bundesliga Table We could not even keep up with f*cking Augsburg. Youth Intake This gets worse every year Despite our Youth Facilities having been upgraded a few times in the last years!

A pity my tactic didnt work for you (sorry for that), but the new (old) one looks to work greatly You´re in far calmer waters now.

Great season! Congratulations Penalty shootouts are always a lottery, so don´t think too much of it. Next time its Champions League!

The Lilies January 2029 Transfers The Saudis came to visit again. Sad to let prolific scorer Pellegri go but we already have his successor in Zeba who can step up now. Muller wanted to bathe in money so we let him. We signed another young central defender talent. Jovanovic has lots of potential. Results Good results if you look at the opposition. We held Dortmund at home, then we held Eintracht away in the Hessen Derby and then we narrowly beat Cologne. The defeat against Bayern was expected, as always. Bundesliga Table The race for Europe stretches down to 12th placed Cologne! We can´t afford to take a breather.

The Lilies November & December 2028 Results Nice to see how relaxed the schedule becomes once you are not playing in Europe anymore. And we had a very relaxed November too as we won all games in that month! First we defeated Stuttgart with a goal in stoppage time, then dominated Kiel at their home in a 3-0 away win. Our player Can Uzun who is loaned to Nuremberg gave them the lead against us in the next game but we managed to turn the result around and win. The next result was a surprise: We kicked big Borussia Dortmund out of the DFB Pokal! The difference in an even game was that we managed to score twice and they didn´t. We will play 3.Liga outfit Jahn Regensburg in the quarter finals next. We then traveled to Hoffenheim and snatched a draw in a boring game. The next game against Bochum wasn´t boring at all but it had the same outcome: A draw. Then we went to Hamburg for the last game of the year and got butchered 3-0. Not a nice way to end the year. The Ultras were not amused. Bundesliga Table It is a tight season.

Sure, but in this case I suspect the guy being some kind of show man

Decent start to the season! This is looking good

Absolutely. That mirrors my opinion.

Exactly

Oh and some reality check here: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-13153563/Furious-Ultra-storms-pitch-deliver-brutal-dressing-players-Bundesliga-Darmstadt-humiliated-6-0-home-slide-closer-relegation.html

Well done in beating Bayern! Come on you wolves

Maybe the manager just bought him some new, clean spectacles

The Lilies September & October 2028 Results We beat Freiburg easily 1-0 before falling to Leipzig in a narrow 2-3 defeat. We beat Schalke 3-1 in a tough game and then we had about 3 weeks to relax a bit but still Leverkusen made short work of us when the Bundesliga continued in October. Augsburg held us to a draw a week later but then we took all 3 points at newly promoted Paderborn. It took a penalty shootout against 2.Bundesliga outfit Greuther Fürth to go through to the 3rd round in the DFB Pokal where we will meet Borussia Dortmund at home. 3 days later we trashed Wolfsburg 3-0. Bundesliga Table Our recent form helped us climb to 6th.

The Lilies August 2028 Results A tough game against 2.Bundesliga outfit Elversberg in the DFB Pokal, but we managed to progress to the next round in the end. We will have to travel to Greuther Fürth in the 2nd round, another 2.Bundesliga team. Our first Bundesliga game at Cologne ended in a draw. Then we beat our rivals convincingly in the Hessen Derby. And then we lost against Bayern. Bundesliga Table A decent start. Nothing special.

The Lilies July 2028 Transfers The only notable departure is Riedel. Volland decided to call it a day and end his career. Not many transfers this time. Nelson is a talented left wingback who got loaned back to his original club right away. Gambini is a highly talented central defender who will improve our defense immediately. Holm is a proven wing back who can play on both sides. Prömel is a DM veteran with lots of experience. Koch was only bought as a backup. The Team Goalkeepers Urbig is the future. Schuhen is the past. John is only a backup. Key Player: Jonas Urbig Defenders Gambini should lead our back three, despite his young age. Key player: Andrei Borza Midfielders Prömel brings much needed experience to our midfield. Key Player: Rodrigo Villagra Attackers Torsiello is back after years on loan but he won´t be more than a backup player. Zeba and Pellegri will fight for the only place in attack. Key Player: Pietro Pellegri Tactics Those tactics worked well most of the time last season. Board Expectations No Europe for us this season. Club News The could have been a bit more creative with the stadium name though. Pre-Season Friendlies Hey we even beat Real Madrid! Maybe a good omen for the season? Then again we lost against Leicester...

Too many draws do not help indeed... maybe a tactical change might offer new possibilities...

I was worried about that too but he absolutely did accept the role with a new 2 year contract. Legend Sure, go ahead! Would love to see if it works for you

The Lilies April & May 2028 Results We got a bit closer to Europe in the end but it wasn´t enough. At least we managed what the board wanted: A top half finish. We started April well by beating Hamburg at their place, then expectedly lost the 1st leg against Chelsea, drew in the Hessen Derby once more, lost the 2nd leg against Chelsea and went out in the Europa League quarter finals which I consider a success. We only managed a point at lowly Hannover, but then beat Freiburg and Augsburg. We were now sitting on 7th place which would have been enough for Europe. But then we lost to the big ones Leverkusen and Dortmund and the dream was over. Bundesliga Table In the end it was 9th place. The board wanted a top half finish and we delivered. Although European qualification again would have been nice. Pellegri won the golden boot with 25 goals. Youth Again, our U19 got promoted to the national youth league. Hopefully, we will be able to avoid relegation next season. Season Stats Pellegri scored 35 goals this season, I hope we can hold on to him as the clubs are already piling up to sign him. Urbig will replace Schuhen as our first choice goalkeeper next season, he already played a lot this season and did well. Zeba improved massively this season and was even voted Best Young Player In The Europa League. Winter signing Ares showed his class and already is a first teamer. Quite some players will have to leave after the season though as we are building for the future.
