Sup guys, Have a bit of transfer drama that I wanna share. So in a fit of rage following an embarrassing defeat at home to Tottenham in the CL, I transfer listed my best FB after he didn’t take the 2 week fine like a man and insisted he played good (he finished the match with one of the lowest scores I’ve ever seen. It was between 5-6). He was 31 years old (Thomas Meunier from Belgium) and I was planning on finding replacements at the end of the season with a replenished transfer fund. I was rotating him with an academy product with high potential who’s been doing fairly well. So bottom line, I need fullbacks. A Chinese club came swooping in as soon as I transfer listed him and I accepted the offer. In retrospect I shouldn’t have done that because after that he was back to his solid defending, pinpoint crossing, assisting ways. Fast forward to the January transfer window. Meunier has left for the Chinese Super League and I bring in a FB (Aurier, plays for Spurs in RL I believe) from my reserves to replace Meunier. Suddenly I see an offer from Juventus. They want one of my starting attacking midfielders (can play as an AMC and midfield) on loan with a mandatory fee of $94 mil. I take a look to see if Andre Horta wants to move, and sure enough he does. Given the fact that I have quite a few midfielders and a couple I can’t guarantee consistent playtime, I accept the offer. Then it hits me. My scouts found a promising FB that’s just as technically sound and has great ball IQ as well as being faster than Meunier, and this guy is in his early 20s with high potential. I didn’t have the funds to sign him last season and Juventus picked him up. I figured if I’m gonna loan out one of go to creators, then I’m gonna try and get the FB from Juventus in a sort of “I got what you want, you have what I want” deal. I forgot to mention that Juventus will be paying me $400k monthly for the duration of the loan, so the club will come out with a nice amount of funds from this deal. In return, I offered to pay nearly a million monthly and then an optional fee of 75 million at the end of the season. In total Juventus will get close to 90 million at the conclusion of the loan. They’ve declined the original offer and two new offers. Juventus is hesitant to let him go. The time came to finalize the Horta deal, but I delayed it. I won’t let Horta go unless Juventus lets their young FB go. Even if Horta is angry and the deal falls through, I’ll transfer list him at the end of the season and let him go elsewhere but not Juventus.

Welcome to Santos Futebol Clube Santos Futebol Clube have today announced the departure of Argentinian coach Jorge Sampaoli. Sampaoli steps down due to personal matters and has recommended his fellow country man Santiago Martin takes his place. The unknown Santiago Martin has never held a managerial position before but has worked for Sampaoli for the last few years. Like Sampaoli, Martin is a Bielsa disciple and will no doubt seek to implement the formers philosophy into the club for the upcoming season. There is much intrigue around the club about just how the season will now unfold under Santiago Martin. MORE TO FOLLOW ! -
I’d been looking forward to my retirement. After twenty years as a professional footballer, I was more than ready to ride off into the sunset and run a pub in the age-old tradition of ex-players. As it happened, my retirement lasted all of two weeks before I was approached with an opportunity that I couldn’t turn down: the chance to go home. It still felt strange referring to Gibraltar as “home.” Although I was born here and, in the latter stages of my career, had made twenty-eight appearances for the national side, I had grown up in England. As a navy brat, it was mere luck that led to my being born on the Rock. My father was stationed here and my mother – ever the loyal wife – had followed him during his posting. We moved to Portsmouth when I was three, and nobody ever thought that I would return. I wouldn’t if it hadn’t been for football. I had barely come around from the post-retirement party hangover when the news that would change my plans broke: Hemel Hempstead Town had hit financial troubles. It popped up in the crawl bar on Sky Sports News and, for whatever reason, was the only thing on the screen my eyes could focus on. It was entirely useless information, but it stuck with me longer than it should have. I threw back a couple of painkillers and go back to bed for round two with whatever her name was. A couple of days later – I think – I was rudely awoken by the sound of my phone ringing. She was gone. I couldn’t remember her name. Probably didn’t ask for it – I rarely did. Or needed to. “What?” I grunted into the phone, a mixture of confusion, anger, and feeling like I’d been hit by a car. “Matty,” after a moment of processing, I figured out that it was my agent, Rick, “I’ve got an offer for you.” “I retired, remember? We had a talk, put out a press release, threw a party… Pretty sure you were there, mate.” “I was. They’re not asking you to play. They want you to manage.” “Who?” “Inter.” “Milan?” My mind instantly filled with plans of chasing models and gorging myself into retirement shape on the local cuisine. “Not quite.” A few days later, I was sitting in a fancy restaurant waiting to be interviewed. I don’t know how they even talked me into that, under the circumstances. The news had been bigger than I expected; the demise of Hemel had led to a takeover by a group of ambitious businessmen. In the space of a week – allegedly – deals had been done and the club now known as “Franchise 2” by a large segment of football fans was joining the Vanarama South: Inter Gibraltar were the newest members of the English footballing pyramid. The tiny footballing nation – the place where I was born – now had a representative in the English game. And here I was – Matty Walker, Gibraltar’s favourite footballing son – waiting to be interviewed to lead the project.

#1 / Introducing... Click here to watch! Let me introduce you to Svante Nordberg. A successful ski-racer who regularly featured on the FIS World Cup, Svante's body gave up on him as he reached his thirties. His injuries were severe enough to force Svante to retire, however this allowed him the opportunity to focus on his other passion in life, football. Svante joined his local club, Helsingborgs IF, working with and learning from the backroom staff at the club. He quickly made an impression on the board, who could see he possessed exceptional footballing acumen, particularly for someone that has never kicked a professional ball. After Helsingborgs were relegated to the Superettan in 2016 and then failed to re-join the Allsvenskan in 2017 with a 7th place finish, the board decided to take a risk. In February 2018, Svante Nordberg was unveiled as Helsingborgs manager. His journey taking Helsingborgs back to the top of Sweden and beyond, begins now... -
Hi pals, please suggest a small ****** team for me to play on Football Manager Two Thousand and Seventeen and I will play it plus upload regular updates. We'll be talking full dictator mode here chaps! Things like one complaint he's out, regular night-time beatings for players, screaming that I expect a win at every game, players leaving team meetings with spittle soaked faces, players being fired for holding the wrong political views. You get the idea. It's going to make North Korea look like a holiday camp! Looking forward to your suggestions, chums!
