Brooklyn Jensen

Great to see Bellerin back in the Prem

Noël Aséko Nkili and Jonathan Asp-Jensen are a solid pair of signings!

Premier League Champions in just four seasons! Really unlucky in the Champions League and FA Cup finals as well. What a job Defoe is doing

How many Norwegians do you have now? Surely they can help to convince Haaland

Unlucky in the final but what a run to get there! Weiper is an absolute goal machine!

Weiper doesn’t look like a world beater but his goal record is unbelievable! Gr8 work getting the best out of the German!

Khephren Thuram is fantastic and is good enough for a title winning squad imo. Good upgrade for your midfield!

Incredible first season by Defoe after promotion! Champions League football would be unbelievable achievement!

It is always fun to play with ex-footballers 😄

It’s bloody Burnley again! You are just like Mark Goldbridge! Class season though

Good, sensible signings who can make the step up to the Premier League! Eager to see how Eyup develops for u!

Would love to see how Isaiah does in the Prem! He looks like he can be a quality backup there! KUTGW mate!

Really love the idea of this thread and quality start so far! I’m putting money on Defoe to outdo Carrick!

Good luck for the busy end of the season run mate! Rotation and playing combinations of players who can still win will be crucial!

The first season back in the Premier League is always the toughest. Keep going mate! You are doing just fine!

Considering the pre-season odds, it's a good solid start! Beganovic is smashing in the goals for you too!

Elanga! What a steal for free and he could fire you to the Prem. Congrats on the good start!

Surely the long throws will be back at Stoke? Will be following this, what are your targets in the 1st season?

Mid-season Report Things have been going well in Sergio's 1st attempt at managing in the Sky Bet League One. We were tipped to finish mid-table by the media but the Argentinian managed to guide us to the 2nd position after 31 games, with automatic promotion looking likely as we are 9 points ahead of 3rd-placed Oxford. It will be a challenge to topple Derby at the top though, as we have been consistently behind them in second place throughout the campaign. FA Cup Our second choice lineup managed to progress past Leyton Orient and Ipswich in the 1st two rounds but the boys came unstuck against Premier League side Sheffield United in a 0-2 Third Round defeat. Carabao Cup Our worst performance of the season so far came in the Carabao Cup where another Premier League outfit, Leeds United, smashed us 5-1 at their home ground as we suffered a second round cup exit. Papa John's Trophy Things looked rosier in the Papa John's Trophy as the boys did very well to progress all the way to the semis, where a scary-looking Man City u23s side awaits us. Nevertheless, Sergio will continue to play his second string in this competition as he wants to place full focus on sealing automatic promotion. Star Performer The 19-year-old has been an absolute star for Sergio, scoring 18 goals in 20 starts in all competitions for the Salop. He was also out for almost two months with sprained knee ligaments and our results dipped as a result.. ..unfortunately, he has a release clause of 1.5 million pounds in his contract and two Premier League clubs have activated it on deadline day. He also refuses to negotiate a new contract

They have all settled really well at the Montgomery Waters Meadow and things are looking good for the Salop!

Wow if you get that Man United job! Very similar career path to Fergie’s! If Man United doesn’t offer you the job then definitely take the Brighton one!

I’m for the Boavista move too! Those Portugal newgens are great as well!

First Pre-season This is Sergio's 1st ever pre-season as he joined his previous club half-way through the campaign, and he is relishing the chance to mould his squad and bring in players to fit his preferred 4-3-3 system. Transfers In his 1st full pre-season, the Man City legend brought in 11 to replace as many out-going players in a very busy summer. The club was also happy with the transfer businesses as we ended up with some revenue, and there is room left to plug gaps if some of our players are poached in January. Key Signings Adam May Sergio prefers to have 4 no. 8s to help him get through the season and the squad he took over was short of two. Adam was available on a free and came in on a trial before he was snapped up as the coaching team was impressed with his all-rounded game. He will offer thrust and technique in the Box To Box Midfielder role. Vontae Daley-Campbell The club also didn't have right full-backs who were fast enough to rampage up and down the flank for Sergio. The pace of Vontae made the decision to bring him in very easy and he will start in the right full-back position for the Argentinian in the upcoming season. Jonathan Rowe There was also a distinct lack of wing attackers in the squad which Sergio inherited and he made full use of the loan market to bring in a promising left inverted winger from Norwich. His pace, flair and crossing ability will be crucial down our wings in the upcoming campaign. The club was also very kind to allow Sergio to work through his badges and he is now studying for the National B Licence. With that, the Argentinian's first ever season in professional football management begins!

He was on loan at Tranmere in League Two last campaign and scored 18 goals. I've no doubt he will score goals for us in League One too! The fact that he came from our academy makes things so much sweeter!

Unlucky mate! That's one too many occasions where you've been FM-ed! Maybe you need to pray to those FM gods
