AFC AJAX
This is my new story after being inspired by the performances of Ajax in the Champions League this season. The goal is to restore Ajax to the top of world football and also to get the Holland job and win them their first World Cup.
Johan Cruyff - so synonymous with Ajax - once said "Why couldn't you beat a richer club? I have never seen a bag of money score a goal." and with that in mind I am going to use the youth academy to the hilt and I am going to try and only sign Dutch players. Maybe I will limit myself to one foreign signing a season but only then they have to be a teenager.
In real life Ajax have scored 111 goals in 32 league games and are in the Champions League semis which is the kind of record you get in FM once you have built a team after a few years so in a weird way the team in real life are doing better than I can do in the game!!!!
So join me for the ride and we shall see how I get on!!
