ashton321 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 So I decided in the end to go to Russia, to a decent side one I remember watching against Liverpool in the UEFA Cup about 20 years ago. Alania Vladikavkaz- 2016/17 - Russian First DivisionMe - Club League - We started off in poor form only recording the odd win, I changed things round from a tactical point of view and things started to look better, we even went 8 games unbeaten. Unfortunately the mid season break came at the wrong time for us as we were poor after the break. In the end we dropped into a relegation battle and did well to keep our place Competitions - Dont like cups anyway Transfers - A lot of players came into the club to try and add some depth, the majority were kids who should improve the team over the next couple of years Finance - Poor Stars Igor Ponomorev - Creator in cheif for this team, does a lot for the team in terms of creating chances for the target men Alexsandr Vasilenko - Defensive beast at the back, throughout the season has covered either side and done well Dimitri Frolov -Cracking winger who provides most of the width for this team Next Year I would like to survive a lot more comfortably really, I will be busy in the summer. I am hoping that will help us be more comfortable.

ashton321 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Alania Vladikavkaz- 2017/18 - Russian First DivisionMe - Club League - We started off in poor form again, it took another tactical rethink to make us a little more solid at the back. This seemed to work as we went on an amazing run. We ended the year in 4th spot this meant we met a team from the Russian Premier League. We beat them 5-3 over two legs to seal an amazing promotion. Competitions - Better, one round further. Transfers - A few came in, but again majority where youngsters. Two youngsters from last year left for big fees, they were prospects and sitting in my reserves. I have 40% sell on so that could be nice Finance - I dont want to think about what these would have looked like if the sales hadnt happened Stars Alexy Kruschev - Came in last year on a free and took a while to settle. I played him in the quarter back position from the midfield this year and he was immense Nemad Vrancic - Took over as first choice striker this year and did fantastic Dimitri Frolov -Another superb year from the winger Next Year God knows promotion has come a lot earlier than I expected.

Andy Sava Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Viktoria Koln2016/2017 Season Update Competitions Fixtures 1 | Fixtures 2 | Competitions German Third Division (5th) - I wasnt expecting such a good first season, not after the Offenbach failure. We found ourselves at the top of the table very quick and if we had played better in the mid-season we would have had a very good chance at promotion. I'm happy with the season as it is and am very excited about the next one. Team Transfers | Squad | Team report Joao Pedro (M/AMC) - My chief scout recommended him after he joined the team and i am so happy he did. Pedro was outstanding all season long. Dennis Malura (D/WB R) - He was at the team when i joined, very good season for him. Jules Remerink (AM RL) - Transfer listed when i joined, had quite a few offers for him which i turned down. Turns out he also wanted to stay and went on to score 13 goals this season. Shervin Radjabali-Fardi (D/WB L) - Solid season with 8 assists and 2 goals. Sven Kreyer (ST) - He could have had a better season, only scored 10 goals.

Maurice Mathis - ST - <8(12) Apps, 4 Goals, 3 Assists, 6.88 Average Rating> - On loan from Red Bull Salzburg. I went a little nuts this season with the transfers because i didn't want to have problems in case of injuries. Might settle down a bit for next season. Competitions Fixtures 1 | Fixtures 2 | Competitions German Second Division (4th) - We are progressing but i kind of feel sad that we didn't get a shot at promotion, we wasted some points that we shouldn't have and we ended up 4th. It's good but we can do better. German Cup (Quarter Finals) - I never thought i would reach the Quarter Finals at such an early stage in the challenge without a lucky draw. The draw was lucky until the 3rd round where we got Leverkusen. Somehow we won the game 2-1 but we lost in the Quarter Finals against Second Division side Bochum.

Competitions Fixtures 1 | Fixtures 2 | Competitions 2. Bundesliga (4th) - 4th again...and at 1 point difference again...We started the season very very good and by January we were 1st. After that we started losing and by the time we recovered it was already to late. We almost got 3rd in the last match but Nurnberg won their game against Hertha. At this point i think the board will start asking me to push for promotion so we have to up our game next season and do it.

vikeologist Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Congratulations on promotion. Looked at your updates all at once, and the first few said you wre in the 1st division. I was confused as hell. I thought that maybe you hated Viktoria and wanted to make them an amateur non-league side. I get it now though. Did you have to tweek your tactics, or was it just the players who were different / better? Interesting that you won the league without Tobias Muller, or indeed anyone else, scoring a lot of goals. Muller is hardly a prolific scorer. I'm surprised you've kept faith with him. Is he the chairman's son or something? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Sava Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 It was mostly the tactics. I started with a 4-1-4-1 in the Third Division but changed it during the first season in the Second Division to a 4-1-2-3 which gave us much better results. The problem with the first 2 seasons in the Second Division was that i was trying to hard to attack (had my full backs on attack, both my CMs also, with a control mentality in most of the games), i thought that with the players we had we should be able to control the games we play. I changed that in the season we got promoted, started playing more defensive, having one of my midfielders on support duty aswell as my full backs, using counter attack in away games, which helped us not concede as many goals as in past seasons and win more games. As for Muller, our striker was playing as a defensive forward with a support duty until now, and he had some good games in this position. Up until now it was a team effort with goals from almost everyone (and we did have the second best attack in the league the season we got promoted). I am trying to look for a better striker and it's a must if we are to challenge for trophies. Oops on the errors in the first reports Edit: I still have a few days of vacation so i'm gonna keep flying trough the seasons, specially because i'm playing in FMT (which i won't be doing for the next challenges, it's nice i can play wherever i go but full sim is better).

After that though something clicked in the team and the good results just kept coming. We beat Dortmund at home (3-0) and Bayern away from home (2-1). We overachieved with the players we had at our disposal and i don't think we will be able to replicate the performance without some good transfers next season. I do have a couple of players coming in July and a few others in mind. German Cup We had a good run again, reaching the quarter-finals where we got hammered by Red Bull Leipzig with a 3-0 defeat. Red Bull went on to win the Cup. Club Squad | Profile | Finances The squad remained mostly the same as last season, with only some loans coming in to fill our weaker spots.

It's a bit hard at the moment as the better players don't want to join yet. We need to strike lucky and get a Euro Cup spot so we can attract the really good players.

The mid-season wasn't very good but we managed to recover in the second half of the season beating Dortmund (1-0) on our way to 8th place. German Cup We managed to reach our objective, 3rd Round.

Andy Sava Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Is there no squad registration for Champions League and EURO Cup in FM Touch?

This ain't cool...can't really continue the challenge with this advantage... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Sava Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Viktoria Koln - 2024/2025Season 9 Review - Europe Qualification Transfers 7-3 win against Darmastadt in which Renato Pereira scored 3 goals. I experimented with a few more tactics in the first half of the season (tried a 4-1-4-1 for tougher games and a 4-2-3-1 for attacking) but they didn't produce many results so i reverted to a 4-1-2-3. It wasn't an outstanding season but overall i'm happy we managed to qualify for the EURO Cup. German Cup Only 3rd Round again where we lost 1-0 against Augsburg.

The board decided we needed a new stadium (We had a new one in 2017) which will cost us 74M Euros but they won't even consider improving our training facilities which frustrates me. I have another quality striker joining us in July but i have problems finding defensive players. Viktoria Koln history Competition Winners Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Sava Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I've decided to stop my Germany challenge, i really don't like this changes in squad registration for FM Touch (i don't know if it's a bug or intended, tried searching for it but found nothing). Don't know what to do next... i wish i would have kept playing the full sim save instead. Edit: Gonna restart in Italy, always wanted to go for Italy and i'm giving it a try.

duccio Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I'm looking to restart this challenge after my previous try with CE Europa didn't really go anywhere in the end.

duccio Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 2 gb sounds like plenty. How does it actually work though? I have paid little attention to Steam and have always played in offline mode. One of the good sides of Photobucket has been that the original file names can be retained (less to edit when making season reports with a template).

Andy Sava Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I never bothered with file names so i cant say much in that regard. How i use it: - I don't use the FM screenshots, i use Steam for taking them (you can set the key in Steam settings) - It saves them in your Steam folder. You can see them from Steam -> View -> Screenshots. It opens the uploader, you can upload them to Steam cloud from here. The downside with this uploader is that you don't see the screenshots in full resolution. - After uploading you can view a single image in Steam (View online button in the uploader) so you can copy the image link or you can go and view your entire collection (View online library) - I have a template with the source code for the review. I usually write my review with URL tags put into place where i want them, after that i take my screenshots, i upload them and put in the links.

Recently promoted from Serie D they are hoping to survive the season and build a solid foundation for success. They are playing their home games at Stadio Tonino Benelli, a small stadium with a capacity of 4000. I was tempted to do a "rebirth" series with Parma but decided on a tougher challenge with Vis Pesaro. Should be fun. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to ponder what to do. In previous saves I have always used same file names for shots of same screens and uploaded them into seasonal folders. It has been easy to use text editor replace function to update the urls in the template. Good luck with Vis Pesaro, though I doubt they are SSD (dilettante - amateur) if they are in Lega Pro.

Andy Sava Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Thanks! Hmmm it's what their FM name is and it's the same on their wikipedia entry. Seems it's just Vis Pesaro 1898 on their web page Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duccio Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 They may use SSD as part of the club name IRL if they are non-professionals, but they would probably drop the "Dilettantistica" if they decided to turn professional - which I bet would be the case if they were promoted to Lega Pro.
