I have decided to start a new challenge in which my aim will be to win the top league in every playable country, as well as the Champions League, the World Cup and the European Cup within 80 years. That is a total of of 54 trophies to win. To make it a bit harder, I will also be applying for jobs, rather than adding a new manager every time I change clubs.

I will be starting with all the European countries loaded.

I have not decided yet which country to start in though, so if anyone wants to see me in a certain league, please leave a comment!

History

2013/14 - Manchester City - (League Winners, FA Cup Winner)

So I have decided to start in probably one of the easiest places possible, Manchester City. I will be doing four updates per season, one when I join the club, one at the end of the summer window, one at the end of the January window and one at the end of the season.

Manchester City


My expectations this season must be pretty obvious, win the Premiership. Winning the Champions League is also a possibility here, but it is actually a trophy I have yet to win on FM14, so I know it will be easier said than done.



 
Good luck with this! Aren't you worried that the game will be slow? You could have added and removed leagues as you went....

Yeah I know....

I just wanted to give my processor a good workout haha.
 
Will keep an eye on this, good luck! I can hear your processor now... crying in sheer agony as you destroy its organs for the sake of Football Manager.

Haha. I have got a 1* game speed. Thats good enough for me :P
 
Still better than my laptop on Euro leagues... Good luck bud, even though you started with the wrong club ;)

Thought I would pick an easy start so I dont get discouraged and rage quit :P

I will probably post a list of available jobs at the end of every season (If I want to move clubs) as give you readers the option to choose which club I join.
 
Good luck, will follow.

Half Season Report

Its so far so good with Manchester City, sitting nicely on top of the league and still in the Champions League too. We have only had three defeats all season so far in all competitions, but perhaps most disappointingly was the 2-1 loss in extra time against Aston Villa in the Capital One Cup quarter final. We have a good chance of progressing to the next round of the Champions League too, as we drew Zenit St. Petersburg in the 1st Knockout round after winning the group stages.

As you can see we have had a few thumping wins, including a 6-0 opening game against Stoke. We do have a knack of scoring quite a few goals in our matches, although we did go on a four game run winning our games 1-0, but a win is a win.

Not a bad way to open the season! 6-0! Silva was in fine form this game getting a hattrick. Zero shots on target for Stoke too.

We continued our high scoring with an excellent game against West Ham. New signing Diego Costa was the one to get a hattrick this time.

This was the game that clinched top spot in our Champions League group. A superb 4-1 win.

And again a superb game against our great rivals.

Great start - best to get the 'easier' teams out of the way and forge yourself a reputation in my opinion. Keep it up.
 
What a challange! Good start, shame about the COC but all goin well bar that. Will be following, no transfers?
