Decent tie. Should be a bit of a money spinner for you

Ah, the classic PPA save. Long may they continue

Go for RFS. You can easily take them further

Great work at Brackley! I look forward to where you end up next!

I try and re-sign them if they’ve been let go on a free. A) They help you and B) You have a second chance to get cash for them

Easy money

The Stats Bundesliga Table Aug - Dec Results Jan - May Results DfB Pokal Results Player Stats Commerical Summary Data Hub The Eyetest Our sophomore season in the Bundesliga was a lot better. We were challenging for European football at the business end of the season but, due to injuries to key players, we ended up 9th in the Bundesliga in the end. Heinz Karner once again led the way with 13 goals, which is still disappointing, however Henning Kopnick was second with 8 and a lot more goals were shared around this season . We also had a heartbreaking DfB Pokal campaign, losing to 2.Bundesliga side 1.FC Union Berlin, 1-0! in possibly the worst final in living memory. Our search for top flight silverware goes on. Stats-wise, we finished 8th on Goals Scored and 11th on Goals Conceded, which are improvements on last season, but still not where we would like to be. The Misc

This is next season's lineup without moves, including any transfers made in/out for the beginning of next season. Let's look through to see when/where there are issues. GK - Same as it ever was to be honest. Nothing changes unless Gosslar moves, which he will do in the summer. Urbig played the Cup Final due to injuries and makes it to third choice here DR - Same as last season, if Franke can keep fit DCR - Logjam! This is again, predicated on Flauder a) moving or b) moving to backup libero DCL - Farhat is our first choice libero. The Rest... ehhhhh. Lanfer is hanging in there. DL - Turgeman is #1. Hagsmeister is....a big #2.... Etim is a shot in the dark DMCR - Kulikov probably wont be signed past his contract ending and if I get a decent offer, he's gone. DMCL - Our strongest position, now Mohr has resigned. Problem is, neither he or Murati can play the SV role ML - Jarosch came back and we're back to how it used to be AMR - Fabian Coernen is first choice, barring injury and Karagoz shone at Fenerbache a season ago, so he gets the nod here. AMC - Tomas moves from the wing to the middle and immediately becomes first choice. Everyone shunts down. ST - Karner is still first choice, as Kopnick scored a few, but couldn't displace him. Schmidt returns to be sold.

DfB Pokal Final 22 May 2038 Olympistadion 20:00 FC St. Pauli 1-0 FC Energie Cottbus Carolus 3 Injuries to our main two keepers led to an 18 year old making his debut in the Cup Final... No point in framing this, I guess..

There have been severe issues with this season as I've had many crashes and lost saves, which is why we had no Half-Season Review or Squad Depth for next season. Apologies to anyone still reading and we'll be back for next season!

DfB Pokal Semi Final 21 Apr 2038 LEAG Arena 20:30 FC Energie Cottbus 5-3 FC St.Pauli Jarosch 5 ..........................................................Fihla 28 Karner 7, 73, 89 ..............................................Altenhofer 45 Kulikov 71.........................................................Baysal 77

Well. A couple of excellent talents, although not the defensive ones we needed... Let's look at the Top 3 Prospects. GK Fabian Demmig - Work Rate: 11, Pace 11 - DNA: Passed Whew. We really needed some goalkeeping talent, as Gosslar will probably move on in the summer D/DM/MC Daniel Flauder - Work Rate: 12, Pace 11, Technique 14 - DNA: Passed Daniel's brother Andreas is already in our team and if he can match his brother in progression, we should have a decent pairing. DM/M/AMC Kristoffer Kraeft - Work Rate: 12, Pace 11, Technique 15 - DNA: Passed Holy, wow. This guy will go right to the top if he can improve.

Good to see Reed getting a new contract. Not enough iron fist for my liking though

Look forward to it

Depends on the intake. I very rarely rely on these

If we can get a Bundesliga-standard player in every one of those positions.... oh my.

Oss-tentacious Quadruple win! And now the sportswashing begins....

The Brief For our sophomore season in 1.Bundesliga, the board brief was to Make The Relegation Playoffs this season, with us to make an effort in the DfB Pokal. Last season was a hard slog and we're looking at much of the same. Our budgets were £788k in the wages and £29.5m transfer budget. The Results Another poor start. No wins, a spanking by Leipzig and one point. The Transfers IN AMRL/ST Henning Köpnick (Free Transfer, 1.FC Kaiserslautern) D/WBR Achim Franke (£3m, 1. FC Köln) DC Spyros Sidiropoulous (loan, Hamburger SV) DM/MLC Sören Jarosch (£3.75m, SC Freiburg) DM/MC Alexander Mohr (loan, Brighton & Hove Albion) Well. Possibly our biggest season, regarding incoming transfers, but we needed improving after the poor finish and start to this season. We tried to improve our striking options by resigning Kopnick as a backup, but it's the main problem we have. A solid backup right back was next, as Drazen Susak was courted by many clubs this season at offers around £20m. Spyros was a poached academy player which could be useful for us, if we're raided in January. Jarosch became available for £7.75m and it was a no-brainer, especially as we'd get 50% of that back, especially as we had very little talent on the left side. Finally, Mohr was made available on deadline day. People were offering £15-17m for him, but the moment we came in for a loan, he moved within a day as he loves us. OUT ML/AMC/ST Rene Binde (£1.2m, N.E.C Nijmegen) We actually sold him last season, but it would have left us extremely light on the left, so I delayed the sale until the end of the season

Well, from East Germany to the sunny climes of Madrid. What a journey this academy graduate has had!
