Jimbokav1971 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 An unbeaten league season is impressive at any level. At the top level it's even more impressive. At the top level in one of the best leagues in the World it's brilliant. Well done. Where do you go from here after an unbeaten league season and such domestic dominance? Do you keep going until you also win the Champions League? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northernpilgrim Posted September 18, 2019 Author Share Posted September 18, 2019 On to the Bundesliga awards, beginning with the Player of the Year, in which we completed a clean sweep, having first, second and third place We repeated that, with the same three players, in the Players' Player of the Year The Golden Boot winner wasn't a Dortmund player, but the runner-up was One of our own took the Young Player of the Year award I got Manager of the Year and Players' Manager of the Year The Team of the Year was dominated by Dortmund players, featuring no less than 8 and it was the same in the Players' Team of the Year Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Jimbokav I don't have to win the Champions League again, but it would be nice. You may or may not have noticed, but I've won the top division title now in England, Spain, Italy and Germany. That just leaves France to complete the set of Europe's 'Big Five'. I'd like to do that, and then go back to international management and try for the European Championship and the World Cup. That's basically what I'm trying to do, and hopefully top the World Hall of Fame too. Winning the Bundesliga has seen me enter the top 10 for the first time, so it's getting closer 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillHoudini24 Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Since you went around Europe and managed all kinds of super clubs, I think that after you're done with PSG you should go to your favourite small club and try to bring it on top of the world. That would be a proper redemption, especially after being the manager of most villain clubs of Football Manager (Juventus-PSG-Man.City-Bayern).
