Start of the game 2015

image.png

image.png

Table so far

image.png

My squad

image.png

my best striker ,as you can see is a killer :)

image.png

transfers i made so far

2016_05_21_5_21_32.png

image.png

..through the play- offs.

Its a strange promotion system in Spanish Second Division ,

there are 4 groups of 20 teams and even if you win the group you enter the play -offs.

The first 4 teams of each group enter the play-offs. The winner of each group play with the winner of other group (2 pairs and the winners get promotion)

p.e i won the group 4 and faced the winner of group 1 , i won i got promotion (as Hercules)

image.png

The 2nd,3rd,4th of each group (12 teams = 6 pairs ,the winners go the the next round of play offs ) +2 (the losers from the list play off) = 8 teams ,knock out till 2 .So 4 teams win promotion

2016_05_23_8_43_53.png

My squad end of the season

image.png

i need to reshape my team because almost all their contracts expire next year

and without founds i'll search for free players

image.png

My best player ( i don't think i ll renew his contract )

image.png

and this is the only '' approached to sign'' youth from my academies

image.png

and thats strange because i don't even have a HoYD.

So we keep going...

Season 2016-17

That was good ...

image.png

..and that was something i didn't ask for ,but the board decided

summer transfers

2016_05_23_1_42_06.png

and this is my squad before the new season

2016_05_23_1_43_25.png

End of the season final table

image.png

image.png

with these players i won the league

image.png

and this was my best player ,best goal scorer

image.png

With 18/24 of my players expiring contracts , seems we ll have a very interesting transfer market !

Season 2017-18

The first season in La Liga was the hardest season in all my FM16 saves

image.png

in summer i had changed all my roster with slightly better players

2016_05_29_1_51_07.png

and these are their stats end of the season

image.png

my best player

image.png

and my best goalscorer ( very difficult to keep him )

image.png

Very important the fact that the board decided to improve the facilities (which is the way i play the game)

image.png

Right now these are the facilities

image.png

From the regens of 2017 and 2018 i selected no one "approached to sign".

I hope with the addition of 4-5 free better players from those i have we do better next year

Season 2018-19

Summer transfers

image.png

nothing special about the results so far ,

image.png

but unexpectedly we are 5th!!! (but so close to 10th if we do 1-2 bad results)

image.png

My squad stats so far

image.png

the best player is

image.png

and the leading goalscorer is

image.png

who is a big surprise (11 goals in 10 league appearances)

is in his 2nd season at the club ,seems he wants to prove something.

image.png

I hope he continues that way._

For the 3rd consecutive year (2017-18-19) from the youth candidates

image.png

i terminated trial to all immediately.

Meanwhile with 8 games to go

image.png

we are in Ch.League place , but also 2 defeats away from Europe.

2016_05_31_8_38_49.png

Marcos is still my best player (with Manuel Torres ) and Andres is now a starter (18 goals in 19(9) appearances !!!)

Last day of the league

image.png

Barca won the title with 30 ! points difference ,

our defeat from Celta was a disaster

image.png

we just need a draw

image.png

because in the 1st round at Madrid it was a draw

image.png

The starting 11s ( Atletico's roster only fear can cause :))

image.png

Finally ,we lost

image.png

Atletico is on Ch.League and we are in the Europa League.

Not bad in our 2nd season in the league._

Season 2019-20

Summer transfers

2016_06_03_5_31_59.png

this time i didn't make a lot of transfers ,i wanted to bring players with experience who can help immediately the team , can't invest in youth at the moment , have to wait the upgrade of facilities ,scouting network etc.

2016_06_03_9_20_51.png

I keep an eye on the progress of Eduardo Morante and i ll talk about him later.

Now the odds say 14th place ,

2016_06_03_10_22_49.png

lets see what can we do.

From the youth candidates of 2020 , i approached to sign the first 3

image.png

this one seems to have a future

image.png

Right now my HoYD is this one (not bad)

image.png

and the facilities are

2016_06_06_9_15_23.png

which are ...bad :)

In the Europa Cup ,in our first participation we did well.

In a combination of results

image.png

image.png

i finished 1st ! in my Group

image.png

and then in the 1st knockout round we faced Roma

image.png

we missed the qualification due to 2 late goals from a more experienced side

image.png

Meanwhile in the league ,with 9 games to go

2016_06_06_9_30_32.png

we fight with Atletico (again) and Valencia for the 4th place for Ch.League

Without making a ''big'' win so far

http://s33.postimg.org/ny5tvxvof/2016_06_11_12_07_45.png

we are still unbeaten in the league

http://s33.postimg.org/6hysrrqfz/2016_06_11_12_08_27.png

and if we win Reims at home we ll go to the next round.

About the tactics...

Control i am not able to play .

I can't play counter either ,every time i tried i discovered the beauty of counterattacking of other teams vs me :)

Defensive is the only way.

Flat 4 _fact

Flat in the middle (in the paper) because changing the roles only flat it isn't.

I would like 2 STs ,but Quintana (16y) despite the goals he scored ,is not ready yet ,also Gomez is not a striker.

I have enouph MCs who can play AMC

2016_06_11_12_04_54.png

Curro played as an SS behind Gomez

2016_06_11_12_06_13.png

2016_06_11_12_06_58.png

Gomez hit 4 times ,Bannan was the creator ,Cotan the stopper.

In other words ,this is how i play

2016_06_10_11_26_32.png

something like Atletico , but the team has no identity yet ,i have to wait to become more stronger financially ,to get more quality players.

And thats all for now

Meanwhile in the league maybe this time we ll gonna make it

image.png

8 games to go , our target is at least 4th place ,3rd even better to qualify directly to the groups of Ch.League.

The program is not easy at all ,and we ll have Celta (5th)away

image.png

We come from 2 consecutive defeats ,

image.png

what a game !!,

if you look closer ...

Stats of my squad so far

Then Barcelona beat us very easy

image.png

Klopp is the head coach of Barcelona.

As you see ,he plays a 4411 , with numbers 11,7 switching places continually

This is n.11 (world class winger )

image.png

and this is n.7

image.png

Of course you know this guy :)

image.png

A player who i think will shine in my save in the next year(s) is

2016_06_12_11_32_46.png

i couldn't stop him , he comes from the academies ,of course its impossible to buy this player.

Season 2021-22

A few more words about my tactics (following post no.19)

I play a flat 4 (this is not negotiable)

2016_06_12_10_20_18.png

Roles= FB(A) or FB(S) , i prefer attacking full backs , and if i had the right player i would choose CWB(A)

Flat 4 in the middle

2016_06_12_10_20_35.png

Roles = WM or W only , i don't use Wide Playmaker or def.winger

I prefer WM just because you can use either to run wide or cut inside , and either to stay wider or sit narrower , but also a winger is a good option.

In the middle right now the combination of CM(De)-RPM works good.Generally one creator one stopper.The creator not necessarily a playmaker role ( sometimes a MC(A) or MC(S) is ok)

Up front the combination

2016_06_12_10_21_00.png

is a constant value.

I would like 2 STs ,and if i play he will also on support.(CF-F9)

I don't like the creator in the AMC position ,and even if i find the perfect enganche he will play in the MC position and i would retrain him in the new position.

Why ? Because i like ._ :)

Now , if you have a top team with good players you can choose whatever mentality you want and in >90% you will win.

I will keep the defensive mentality but more aggressive this time ,and maybe i use and a counter -attacking one.

If you ever see me on day play control-fluid (which i like )it means that my squad is very-very good.

I will not analyse any more the games tactically because then all the mods will start to laugh :)

I said all these because all my players in my team , all the players i scout ,and the way i train them must fit in the positions i prefer.

And we start scouting.

This is for me , one of the best parts of the game . Sometimes i spend 2-3 days before even click "continue"

I feel like Poirot trying to solve a problem.

I know what i am looking for ,i ll use my filters ,scout and if i am lucky maybe i find a bargain.

Thats all for now .

I wanted at least 1 striker ,not over 30 , with a reasonable stamina

https://s31.postimg.org/y685v464r/image.png

a reasonable pace

https://s31.postimg.org/6ly66bwjf/image.png

and a reasonable acceleration

https://s31.postimg.org/5bglm1hij/image.png

the first 2 didn't want to discuss a transfer

https://s31.postimg.org/57e8fs8zf/image.png

and finally these are his attributes

image.png

is an unknown player , he plays in 2 positions that i want

and scored enouph goals considering the level of the team he played

https://s31.postimg.org/cuvwistob/plemm_1.png

Now he has the opportunity to play in Ch.League and since i have no other ST he will be starter in the league too.

And thats all the transfers i made , lets see how it will go and maybe i make 1-2 in January

This is the general training panel before the new season

2016_06_15_4_25_05.png

i don't know exactly if it has a proven positive effect in the results but i want all my players to be happy ,maybe it has a psychological effect on me

Champions League Group F

1st GAME

image.png

Maybe we deserved something more according to the stats , but 1 point is OK in our first ever Ch.League match.

https://s31.postimg.org/8colgw6vf/1_1.png

2nd GAME

image.png

Benfica was a better team , but in the end we are very happy with another 1 point

https://s32.postimg.org/j0buq83et/2_1.png

3rd GAME

image.png

A defeat that was in the program

but if you look closer to my team

https://s32.postimg.org/x779jq63p/3_1.png

you ll see that i had no FBs in this game ,Morante and Nicholson were injured

Adolfo was a ''grey'' player

https://s32.postimg.org/6lin6dged/3_3.png

and the same was Rodriguez

https://s32.postimg.org/ht4unqk0l/3_2.png

but in the end what is count is the final score

4th GAME

image.png

Our first win in Ch.League is against City (a lucky goal , a mistake of the defense really )

https://s32.postimg.org/3r3jt0379/4_1.png

Nicholson wasn't ready yet

5th GAME

image.png

We equalized at stoppage time but immediately we conceded !

Again without Morante ,Nicholson ,and with the ''grey'' Adolfo.

In the bench Herrera ,Tejedor , Villaverde ,Jordi are also ''grey ''

We are the ''grey'' team :)

Very nice job so far! Like your approach with the transfer free players, also an interesting club. Keep it up :)

Thanx Cedrik ,

i always try to use the Bosman rule ,there are a lot of players out there

image.png

of course you must pay attention the ...details because if someone asks 10M bonus and another 10M his agent then its not free ...

In September i signed another free , a GK this time for back-up

https://s31.postimg.org/75zgr4nrv/image.png

https://s31.postimg.org/kwr2qu3uz/image.png

Also remember that in December expire the contracts of players in South America (mainly)

i found this one

https://s31.postimg.org/uys2o6ekr/image.png

image.png

Is Argentinian , what else ? :) Finishing 17 ,off the ball > 15 ,not slow for his age ,i think he can play 2 years.

And of course he can play the positions i want

Meanwhile in the league we have 16 x 16 and we are 10 points ahead from Barca

2016_06_17_4_08_07.png

of course you can say that despite the 16 X 16 we are only 3 defeats from Barca.

Some interesting results

https://s32.postimg.org/c5wo8dq6t/image.png

https://s32.postimg.org/kmhrpg5yt/image.png

https://s31.postimg.org/j6bq0e3kb/image.png

Of course luck is important :)

The problem is that in our last game

16_TH.png

Morante injured

2016_06_17_4_21_56.png

And right now this is my squad (you can see my preferences according to appearances )

2016_06_17_4_08_51.png

Plemmenos has 21 goals in 23 appearances !!!

as you can see right now i have no RB

2016_06_17_4_06_09.png

When Gustavo Bou comes he will play partner with Plemmenos and Luis Alberto will be my playmaker and Asensio maybe at the right side.

But i need desperately a right back.

When you play in that level and every year with opponents like Barcelona ,Real ,Atletico and also Valencia,Sevilla ,Villarreal,Athletic you can only be better and tougher .

So when you go to Europe you don't afraid anyone and you know that you ll be a touph opponent for all the teams ( like is happening in IRL with the Spanish teams ).

So in the first leg i knew Juve was a better team , but they equalized with a penalty

image.png

https://s31.postimg.org/ow4il6t97/image.png

and in Turin don't tell me that they didn't afraid when Plemmenos scored.

1_1_JUVE.png

and if Dybala didn't score immediately after 1-1

2_1_JUVE.png

i don't know what it would have happened.
