2022 FIFA WORLD CUP
SPAIN
GROUP H
Uruguay 1 (Pais 16)
Spain 2 (Guillermo 38, Isco 85)
Lineup - De Gea, Alastuey, Bartra, Inigo Martinez, Rubio, Urdaniz (Oliver), Koke, Guillermo, Muniain (Garrido), Isco*, Iker (Simeone)
A good start to the tournament but they had a goal disallowed to make it 2-0 and we immediately equalised.
Austria 1-0 Costa Rica

Austria 1 (Alar 83)
Lineup - De Gea, Alastuey, Bartra, Inigo Martinez, Rubio, Urdaniz, Koke (Darder), Guillermo, Muniain (Jese), Isco, Iker (Garrido)
This is an embarrassing result. We just struggled to score, and they never threatened but grabbed an undeserved equaliser late on.
Costa Rica 0-2 Uruguay

PRE-SEASON 2022-23
So I am about to embark on my 10th season with the club and its fair to say we have done pretty well so far and I will do a special post at the end of the season!!!
Anywho this summer saw a couple of changes with one big name departing and I actually bought a couple of players too. As ever the board were quite grippy with my transfer budget and only gave me 463m to spend!!!!!!!!!
The board announced they were going to further increase the size of the stadium even though they were already expanding it so I dont know what is happening there but apparently when the work is finished the San Mames will hold 86,000 people - I think.
As an addition to last seasons review my B team bottled their run in and finished 3rd in the Liga Adelante when it was in their hands. Never mind.
--
PLAYERS IN
Nobody for the first team squad but these youngsters were brought in for 2.6m but on seeing them again I dont know why I bothered lol although Jimenez may turn out decent.
View attachment 375796View attachment 375795View attachment 375794View attachment 375793
My DoF tried to sign my former keeper and youth product Aizpurua for a whopping 33m!!!! I know I undersold him but he aint worth that much. He also tried to sign Ruiz de Galarreta again for 10m.
--
PLAYERS OUT
As you know Ander Herrera wanted out and he got a testimonial during the summer but nobody has come in for him yet amazingly - even on a free! So at the moment it looks as though he is staying put.
The big departure was Inigo Martinez who went to Paris Saint-Germain for 20m. He was immense for me and he made 280 appearances and scored 39 goals. I felt that to get that amount of money for a 31y/o was too good an opportunity to miss and I cant hold Alastuey back any longer.
Ruben Sanz left for Villarreal for 3.2m. He has been my top scorer for my B side for the past couple of seasons and Patxi Nieto is loaned out again. Raul Galan has returned to the club from his loan spell but has been demoted to the B team.
My B team keeper attracted interest and I even got bids of 8m for him but I wasnt interested. I also received bids for a midfielder in the B team, Angel Diaz, of 7m but he too is staying.
--
SUMMARY
Into the first team squad to cover the abscence of Inigo Martinez is Alejandro who I signed ages ago for a pittance. Tarantino almost got the nod but his development is almost been reached to the max where as I feel I can turn Alejandro into a decent player. Hopefully he can grow like Bragana has.
View attachment 375792
Urdaniz will be my first choice CM, replacing Herrera and as I have said before, Alastuey will replace Inigo Martinez in the starting lineup.
Arroyo
Rubio - Laporte - Alastuey - M.Olaizola
Espericueta - Urdaniz
Muniain (LW) - Guillermo - Griezmann (RW)

If I am not winning at half time I nearly always threaten to murder my players and their families and that seems to do the trick!!!!

Valencia 2 (Onazi 15, Cartabia 46)
Athletic Bilbao 4 (Muniain 1, Iker 38pen, Espericueta 74, Lasa 82)
I am over the moon with this victory as Valencia have some terrific players and are a tough nut to crack but despite being without a few players we had enough fire power to come out on top.

SUMMARY
What a terrific start to the season!!! We are on fire at the minute with goals galore, especially from Iker who even managed to net 5 on the first day of the season. There were so many terrific performances this month as we picked up 2 trophies but the highlight has to be the 6-1 thrashing of Real Madrid where Jon Ander Olaizola (a wonderkid) starred by getting 5 assists - yet wasnt even the man of the match!!!
In the transfer window my DoF was busy as he set up a 39m deal to sign my former keeper Aizpurua, a 15m deal to sign my former CM Ruiz de Galarreta and a 1.6m deal to sign 34y/o Javi Martinez - naturally I rejected all of those deals.
I did however send out Diego Lasa on loan. Just hours after scoring the 4th against Valencia I offered him out to see if there were any takers and Panathinaikos came in with a loan bid which I accepted. He has not done anything wrong thus far for me as a record of 35 goals in 71 games suggests (40 starts) but I want to promote Jon Ander Olaizola into the first team squad so Lasa is the casualty.

SUMMARY
Our brilliant start to the season continued this month as we battered pretty much everyone that came up against us including Real Madrid. Methinks the form we are showing here is the best since I started here and it is highly enjoyable - especially since youth team graduates like Urdaniz, Alastuey, both Olaizola's, Garrido and Arroyo all shone.
More please!!!!

SPAIN
Friendly
Mexico 4 (Torres 1, Mendiola 56, Diaz 62, Aquino 64)
Spain 4 (Garrido 17, 36, Guillermo 45, 53)
Lineup - De Gea, Olaizola (Bragana), Alastuey, Inigo Martinez, Bernat, Koke, Urdaniz, Guillermo*, Jese, Isco, Garrido
Not bothered about the result but throwing away a 4-1 lead is not on. My club RB Mikel Olaizola is my new RB for Spain and he made his debut here.
--
UEFA European Championships Group G
Malta 2 (Gatt 21, Sciberras 43)
Spain 3 (Iker 44pen, Alfonso 64, Garrido 68)
Lineup - De Gea, Zaldivar, Bartra, Inigo Martinez, Bernat (Rubio), Koke, Urdaniz, Guillermo, Muniain, Isco (Alfonso*), Iker (Garrido)
A win is a win but this is not good enough. My 3 first picks at RB were all injured so I had to call up my backup RB at Bilbao, Daniel Zaldivar, who made his debut. Alfonso has 6 goals in 7 games for the national team.

SUMMARY
Another month - all games played were victories and we scored a few goals - bog standard month!!!! There was one bit of news as I signed a new contract with the club and they are paying me 100k a week now - a rise of 13k. For a long while I was getting paid more for managing internationally than with my beloved Athletic Bilbao.
My B team is struggling a bit this season in the Liga Adelante and it seems mid table obscurity awaits them after challenging, and winning, the title for the past few seasons.

love the story the start to the season has been incredible especially ikers performances. i am looking at starting my own story although not with bilbao and i was wondering whether you had any advice. i was wondering whether i should run it with a full story or focus more on the actual game and the results in the matches.
Any one interested in voting on what story i should do or has any other advice are welcome to do so on the story page.

NOVEMBER
UEFA Champions League Group E
GNK Dinamo 2 (Strunje 35, 45)
Athletic Bilbao 3 (Alfonso 43, Martin 49, Garrido 83)
This was a hard fought win as their 16y/o kid put us to the sword but we battled our way to victory and scored the winner despite being down to 10 men.
--
Athletic Bilbao 6 (Guillermo 17, Iker 20, 53, Griezmann 30, 62, 76)
Albacete 2 (Pepelu 52, 90)
A team like Albacete never had a chance against my lot. Its basically the Spanish national team against a lower league side.
--
Villarreal 1 (Guillermo 5)
Athletic Bilbao 2 (Muniain 9, J.Olaizola 73)
A hard fought win. They had a goal disallowed fortunately for us.

UEFA Champions League Group E
Athletic Bilbao 1 (Garrido 85)

I am happy here as this was a weak backup side I put out!!!!
--
Athletic Bilbao 3 (Laporte 4, Muniain 24, Iker 36)
Barcelona 0
Thats 15 wins out of 15 in the league this season and 23 out of 23 in total.

I am beginning to run out of words of praise for my young backups. I expect them to win 9 out of 10 times now.

Athletic Bilbao 4 (J.Olaizola 41, 90, Griezmann 54, Urdaniz 62)
I fielded a weakened side here and they came up trumphs. Jon Ander Olaizola is relishing his run of starts in the first team, albeit against weaker opposition. Another trophy!

I would have liked to have scored more, especially since they had a man sent-off in the 1st half but it was not to be alas.

SUMMARY
5 games played and 5 games won with a goals scored average of over 5 goals a game says it all!!! My backups were on fire this month with Alfonso showing that Griezmann wont be missed when he goes and Jon Ander Olaizola was amazing and he will heavily feature in the future for sure.
I wont go as far as saying that we have won the Champions League as we have drawn against Basel in the next round but also through are the likes of Academica and Hoffenheim.

JANUARY
Copa del Rey 4th Round 1st Leg
Mallorca 0
Athletic Bilbao 1 (Bragana 13)
A narrow victory. Urdaniz had a goal disallowed.
--
Real Valladolid 0
Athletic Bilbao 5 (Gano del Campo og3, Iker 8, 15, Griezmann 24, Muniain 44)
At half time we were 5up and against 10 men yet we couldnt score in the 2nd half annoyingly.
--
Copa del Rey 4th Round 2nd Leg
Athletic Bilbao 4 (Guillermo 16, 31, Griezmann 34, Iker 77)
Mallorca 0
(Athletic Bilbao win 5-0 on aggregate)
This could have been 40-0!!!!!
--
Athletic Bilbao 9 (Muniain 3, 32, Mario og7, Iker 28, 54, Laporte 45, Griezmann 57, Vaca og76, Gonzalez 90)
Almeria 0
A fantastic victory. I would like to get into double figures in a game as we have scored 9 goals a few times now. We have kept a clean sheet in each of our last 7 games now.
--
Copa del Rey QF 1st Leg
Athletic Bilbao 3 (Guillermo 11, Iker 35, 57)
Real Madrid 2 (Nathan 17, Icardi 26)
And still we have won every game this season...........

--
Copa del Rey QF 2nd Leg
Real Madrid 1 (Matic 23)
Athletic Bilbao 1 (Guillermo 3)
(Athletic Bilbao win 4-3 on aggregate)
Yes we are through which is pleasing but Garrido had a winner disallowed which ends our 100% record for the season.
--
Athletic Bilbao 3 (Iker 3, 65, Urdaniz 43)
Valencia 1 (Samsonov 15)
I am pleased with this win as Valencia have some top notch youngsters - especially 2 of their Russians (they sold another in the summer).

SUMMARY
Another fantastic month but we failed to win for the first time this season however we still have a 100% record in the league!!!
Events on the pitch was par for the course really but events off the pitch was more interesting. In the World Player of the Year awards we dominated as these pics suggest.........

Also I actually signed a player for a change as I brought in Angel from Barcelona for a fee of 2.8m.

FEBRUARY
Copa del Rey SF 1st Leg
Barcelona 2 (Paolucci 2, Fernandinho 40)
Athletic Bilbao 2 (Lorenzo og30, Iker 38)
A decent enough result considering we played most of the 2nd half with 10 men after Laporte got sent-off.
--
Malaga 0
Athletic Bilbao 3 (Garrido 1, Laporte 16, Iker 43)
--
Copa del Rey SF 2nd Leg
Athletic Bilbao 6 (Griezmann 3, 65, 81, Iker 13, 19, 89)
Barcelona 1 (Wellington 22)
(Athletic Bilbao win 8-3 on aggregate)
What a fantastic victory this is - especially since I was missing several players.
--
Sporting Gijon 2 (Zanetti 31, 62)
Athletic Bilbao 3 (Muniain 8, Iker 10, Garrido 80pen)
Sporting are in the relegation zone but proved to be tough opponents here.
--
Athletic Bilbao 8 (Iker 4, 9, 13, 53, Muniain 35, 73, Griezmann 37, Laporte 61)
Granada 1 (Fortounis 27)
Once again we narrowly fail to get 10 goals in a match not that I can complain too much about that!
--
Athletic Bilbao 2 (J.Olaizola 70, Iker 83)
Real Madrid 2 (Allione 10, Icardi 90)
Bang goes our 100% record in the league. Never mind - lets make sure we remain unbeaten!!
--
UEFA Champions League 1st Round 1st Leg
FC Basel 2 (Aeschilmann 24, Yilmaz 82)
Athletic Bilbao 4 (J.Olaizola 8, Garrido 27, Alfonso 44, 86)
I put out my backups here and they did enough to get the win and they will get a run out in the 2nd leg too. Jon Ander Olaizola had a goal disallowed also.
--
Espanyol 2 (Joselu 61, Jerez 87)
Athletic Bilbao 4 (Griezmann 10, Iker 16, Guillermo 66, Laporte 90)
A decent enough win and we coped well with Muniain's early sending off.
--
Athletic Bilbao 6 (Guillermo 4, 61, Iker 14, Garrido 48, Alastuey 51, Rubio 90)
Real Betis 0
Another big win and that makes it 100 goals in the league this season.

SUMMARY
This month would normally be considered a great one but we failed to win twice which is unheard of this season! Having said that we had some great performances and scored a shedload of goals as usual with Iker starring once again as he got 13 goals during the month.
In the league we have hit the 100 goal mark and are averaging 4 goals a game - surely this will be our best chance to hit the 150 mark and go through the league campaign unbeaten.

MARCH
Sevilla 1 (Ferreira Carrasco 15)
Athletic Bilbao 5 (Griezmann 8, Iker 13, 18, 28, 57)
Another super show from Iker except he missed a penalty late on.
--
Mallorca 1 (Chuma 63)
Athletic Bilbao 4 (Martin 23, 67, Alfonso 45, Iker 68)
I am aiming to score 4 goals in each league game to get to the golden target of 150.
--
Athletic Bilbao 1 (Garrido 23)
Atletico Madrid 0
I am not too bothered about the lack of goals as Atletico are one of the tougher sides that we face.

UEFA Champions League 1st Round 2nd Leg
Athletic Bilbao 2 (Bragana 9, Garrido 22)
FC Basel 1 (Yilmaz 81)
(Athletic Bilbao win 6-3 on aggregate)
This will be the last we will see of Alvaro Bragana for a while as he damaged his cruciate ligaments and is out for 8 months.

Real Sociedad 1 (Bojan 46)
Athletic Bilbao 1 (Iker 28)
This result was disappointing to say the least but they are still to beat us under my management.

SUMMARY
A quiet month this as we didnt have many games and we struggled in a couple of the ones that we did play. We managed to progress in the Champions League and we will play Inter Milan in the quarter finals.
The youth intake was ok with this lad being the best one.....
