Fola Posted July 28, 2019 Author Share Posted July 28, 2019 May '22 Amazing player- delighted I managed to bring him in for so cheap in the summer of last. Not had a player since Helder Costa of his ilk. His best ever season in terms of goals scored. Not bad with a RW! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fola Posted July 28, 2019 Author Share Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) Season 21/22 - Player season stats Goalkeepers Mattia Perin was my starting keeper and did great. When we lost Lukasz Skorupski last summer, I was worried but he's a great keeper. Vito Mannone and Rashed Al-Tumi were back ups. Defenders Arturo Calabresi had another great season for me and is a proper leader at this club. Tiago Matos didn't feature. Jonathan Panzo had to make do with more of a backup place this season. Antony Angileri is brilliant, I do tend to forget he's only 20. Rivaldo Coetzee started the season well but he did waver off and then couldn't get into the side. Daniel Wass probably isn't good enough at this level, he doesn't really fit into this system. Ibrahima Mbaye was OK, probably need an upgrade at RB. Federico Mattiello again had a great season at LB. Federico Dimarco was a good backup and Angelo Pifarotti is definitely one for the future. Midfielders Alessandro Murgia was my usual starting centre midfielder- he's a class act. Ronaldo Vieira was more of a backup but he's a player that I really like. Ladislav Krejci was a backup but he did well when called upon. Bruma was outstanding, there's no other words for it. Theo is one for the future- he's got a very bright future ahead of him. Mattias Svanberg had another very good season but Riccardo Orsolini was a shock for me- he was absolutely amazing. Sergio Gomez is a class act and Pelayo Morilla is just another level. What a great pair they are. Strikers I managed to give Paul Glatzel some game time which I was very pleased about. Fabio Silva had another great season and was my top goalscorer. Borja Garces was average and was loaned out in January. Also had these guys out on loan.

Fola Posted July 30, 2019 Author Share Posted July 30, 2019 August '22 The transfer window has finished and despite having a terrible budget to deal with, I am quite happy with our business over the summer. I will start off with the outs and then I will going into the incomings on a new post. Some first team players have regrettably left the club but we really needed to try and raise as much money as we could. I have been quite impressed with the fact that I have been able to get loan fees with a number of my upcoming youngsters and backup players. Five first team left the club, with the most notable being Mattias Svanberg. It's a real shame to have lost him as he has been fantastic for me. I still think he can improve but he wanted to leave and I wasn't really going to stand in his way. He was a key player for me over the past four seasons but I am confident we have been able to bring in a more than adequate replacement which you will find out later. Gabriele Corbo also joined Benfica for a fee which could rise to £7.75 million. The great thing about this transfer was that he actually never played a game for the club and spent the last few seasons out on loan so happy to get the fee we did. Rivaldo Coetzee joined me last season but was more of a backup player for me and joins fellow Serie A side Crotone. Ladislav Krejci has left to head to Japan. He was a good player for me over the seasons and he deserved to go somewhere and play football. Manilo Di Masi never played for me and joined on a free so a small profit.

Fola Posted July 30, 2019 Author Share Posted July 30, 2019 August '22 Now onto the incomings and some very exciting signings. Joins on a free from fellow Serie A side Lazio. To be able to bring in a player of this quality is amazing. I am hoping he will have the same impact as Orsolini did last season. At only 22 years of age, he has plenty of time to improve and push on. Strangely he's not played much for Lazio but I am hoping he can come good here. Our most expensive transfer but what a player this guy could become. We only paid £1 million upfront and then £25 million in installments but he had all of the big boys in Europe after him so I am absolutely delighted to have been able to bring him in. One for the future. Excited to see how he develops in the future. Joins on a season long loan from rivals Juventus. He's an Italian international and brings some experience to a young squad. Can play at either RB or LB. Replacement for Mattias Svanberg and joins us on loan from PSG. He was a key player for Lazio over the past few seasons and actually scored a few against us in the past. PSG bought him last summer for £31 million and he made 16 appearances for them last season, scoring five times but they have decided to let him leave on loan. I think he could be a key player for us.

Fola Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 August '22 Exciting times. Missed many of the big boys. Aleti are a good side and have finished 2nd the past two seasons in Spain so they're a good side but I'm quietly optimistic. Still not got round to the screenshots for the squad overview- sorry about that, will be done soon! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fola Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 August '22 Delighted with this. He had all the big boys sniffing round him yet we've managed to get him signed up to a new deal here. I have no doubt that he will have to leave the club at some point, but I just hope that's in about three or four years, not any time soon! He's been a revelation since he moved here as a 16 year old. He's started this season extremely well too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fola Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 August '22 Sergio Gomez has been called up to the Spanish squad for the first time. I wasn't blown away by him when he first joined but he was amazing last season and has started this season off great too. Bayern Munich put in an offer for him and he wanted to leave. Eventually I managed to get him to agree a new deal but it insisted on a minimum fee release clause which I am sure a side will take advantage off soon. Remember, we only get 15% of transfers so even if a side does reach the £76 million asking price, we will only get £11.5 million to spend on new players.

Fola Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 September '22 Last bit of action from the transfer window and I have let one of my promising youngsters Paul Glatzel leave on loan. Ideally I would of liked him to stay in Italy but the Italian transfer window has shut and he has joined Championship side Fulham for the season. We also managed to get a good deal for him too so it will bring a little bit of extra cash into the club. I still definitely see a future for him at the club. Just this season he finds himself behind Fabio Silva and I have decided to go with Cosimo Marco Da Graca as my number two striker. He has had a few excellent loan spells in the division below and he is a player who I think definitely deserves a shot in my first team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fola Posted August 7, 2019 Author Share Posted August 7, 2019 September '22 I've given Murgia a new bumper contract and what a player he has been for me. Alongside Sergio Gomez in midfield he has been fantastic- I am still pinching myself that I managed to bring him in for £3.5 million a few seasons back. Surely an international call up has to be on the cards soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fola Posted August 8, 2019 Author Share Posted August 8, 2019 August '22 - September '22 What an amazing start to the season. We sit top of the table and top of our UCL group and we are also unbeaten. With the more games we have to play, the players have been getting very tired and also picking up a lot of injuries so I have had to use a lot of my squad already. Fabio Silva, Bruma and Orji Okwonkwo all have been injured for 6 weeks or so- which makes our run even more impressive. Long may it continue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 15 games we are sitting top of the table and we are currently top of our UCL group too. It's great to have so much depth in the side, I just hope we can hold onto them when January comes around. I also managed to get our transfer revenue up to 90% so it's all going very well!

Fola Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 October '22 I've been really impressed with this guy so far. He came through my youth side and has spent the last few seasons out on loan but he really is an integral part of my side now. I have re-trained him as a right wing back and he's put in some great performances so far. Also been very impressed with Theo. He joined the club a few seasons back and he was one that I was expecting to move out but when he's come into the side, he's been fantastic. Excited about the future at this club.

Already capped twice by Chile and he's only 18. Needs some work but at 17, he could become a good player. Already looks quality- I'm the most excited about this guy if I'm honest out of the three.

We finished top of our group in the Champions League and face Benfica in the next round which will see the return of Mattias Svanberg.

We are into the Cup final next month where we face Napoli and we have ten games left of the season. We are currently unbeaten in the league and if you include last seasons league matches, we have gone 39 league matches unbeaten now. We still have a few big boys to play so just taking it game by game at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of that CAM, I have him set as a SS behind a DLF and he slots well into the space that the DLF has left when he drops deep. Manages to get a few goals too. I usually have Pelayo Morilla there with Fabio Silva as the DLF. 12 hours ago, john1 said: Fantastic to see you still unbeaten in the league Surprised to see sales boost after Delaporte, coming out as gay Thanks mate.
