We came out of this difficult month unbeaten with some brilliant play and outstanding defence. We've guaranteed a playoff spot, but automatic promotion is in reach. We hold all the best cards, considering our final game is against 21st place Lugo. It is an away game, but even a draw gives us a free pass into La Liga.

2021/22 Season Review

How we managed to get away with that is beyond me. I had my head in my hands, preparing for the playoffs, and the inevitable disappointment of having to spend another season in the Segunda. But, whatever rules they have for breaking ties favoured us, and now we are in La Liga!

It's also nice to see that our fellow Canarian team Las Palmas will be joining us, although that means we can't steal their players yet. Although, being rivals, that would probably be a stretch anyway.

I think we have a potential gem on our hands.

He pretty much played a full season for us, and didn't disappoint. At 17 with plenty of room to improve, I'm determined to hold on to him for at least another 3 years, and hopefully he won't want to leave.

2021 Preseason

An okay preseason.

 

 

Transfers

One to sell in the future, and one as a backup in CAM. We almost signed one of the few players I've heard of that are from the Canary Islands in Pedro, but he wanted 20k more a week than what we could afford, so he went to Eibar instead.

Preseason Prediction

 

a08a9252c38bd82c77c3e2f03e93ade0.png

 

Understandably predicted to finish bottom, but I hope 17th isn't too much to ask. We can definitely beat Las Palmas, but results will have to fall in our favour with at least the bottom third of teams.

Bolado looks class :cool: - congrats on the promotion

Thanks @smp20 😀  He does look excellent, I'm torn between selling him and making a profit in the future but loaning him back to us, or making sure he doesn't leave and hope he doesn't get annoyed.

Gijon slaughtered us when we had 4 players out injured or suspended, but besides a brilliant win against Bilbao not much to write home about. On the other hand, our junior coaching is maxed out and our youth recruitment is one upgrade away from the same.

Congrats on Tenerife's promotion to La Liga! I'm sure that you'll be ready to take Tenerife into the European competitions soon!

As always, I want to take a look at the NT rosters of the Northwestern African teams (Cape Verde, Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Mali, Senegal, Niger, Gambia, Guinea Bissau, Guinea and Burkina Faso) and the Western European teams (Portugal, Spain and Andorra). Also, I don't know if there is a Canarian regional league, which is lower than the Tercera División. It would be great to see them as the current season is looking great right now! As for the NTs, I hope most of them will make it to the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

Keep up the good work!:)

A high scoring month, in which we came back to draw with Levante after being down 3-0 at half time, a blown win against Pamplona in which we had a 2-1 lead, and a near-blown win against Malaga. We start our December against Barcelona, and I hope we can keep it under 5.

2021/22 Season Review

Overall, I am very, very happy with the season. We never really looked like being relegated, more or less avoiding the relegation battle, and had some nice wins along the way. Our players are developing nicely as well, and with the lack of Canarian players out there, the development of our own players will be crucial.

2022 Preseason

There was also a 1-0 win over Basel before the season reset. 

 

 

Transfers

 

dab3b31f3ba92823fb32d28f8115d240.png

 

No one has left really, because our B side has been promoted into the 3rd tier and is therefore playable, so anyone needing gametime will be playing for them. As for our buys, Saenz and Juanpe join us permanently after spending the previous 2 seasons on loan with us, and the other 3 are more players that will play a role in the first team while also giving our youngsters a bit more time to develop rather than being thrust into the first team too early.

Preseason Predictions

 

564b6c271a713dc3e2c463243c97083f.png

 

Surprisingly, we aren't predicted to go down. I'm just hoping for safety again, as I feel teams are most vulnerable to going down after being safe the year of promotion. So just consolidate our place in the league, whilst allowing our young players to develop to be stronger for next season. That is the aim.

Great first season in top league La Liga with the surviving finish! I'm definitely gonna like the fact that staying in the top league would be much a challenge I'll say!:D

Uh, one thing is that it's almost time for the 2022 FIFA World Cup. So, I'll re-post it again.

Anyway, let's see if Tenerife survives again after a single win in the first month. Keep up the good work!:)

Thanks Sherwin, I'll be honest, what you're asking deviates a bit too much from what I'm doing, it will probably take too much time away from the actual save here.

A decent month considering the form we've been in, especially to smash Bilbao like that. What's bothering me is the gap that is starting to open up between us and 17th.

 

 

Transfers

 

6387f6898c16781b51d0ae66f04f45c8.png

 

Valencia met our starting keepers release clause, and so he goes for a club record fee. We make a nice profit of about 9 million.

We really had a knack for losing 3-1 to teams with 'real' in their names, but a win against Alaves and another 'Real' team in Madrid brings us out of the relegation zone for the first time in a long time, perhaps temporarily.

2023 Youth Intake

We've been really fortunate with our youth intakes, and this one has not bucked the trend. We get yet another defender, a few AMs, and a handy replacement at keeper despite the poor personality.

Really enjoying this.

The best careers are those where you don't have success early.

Thanks Dev! Whilst I agree with you, I didn't expect to have as big a struggle as I have this season. Second year syndrome at its worst.

It was incredibly ugly, but we survived. Next season I hope it'll be easier, our players have developed a bit more, and are beginning to form the spine of our team. I just need to keep them happy when I reject offers from big clubs.

Pretty perfect.

Predicted last, so we can't get any worse.

Let Roberto go as he doesn't fit our system, and maybe to make a bit of profit out of him. Alisson is a hit and hope, he could be good, he might be a flop.

Plenty of losses, but that win at Vigo was the most important one.

 

 

Transfers

3 leave us permanently, Nicolas joins us for a season and a half long loan plus 50% of his next sale. Amadi we lost to a release clause, and Saenz lost trust in me so I got rid of him.
