I'm not too sure about the PM as Matri doesn't have it and he is just as bad. I think it has to do with how fluid possession based my tactic is. We keep the ball for alot of the game and I don't know if it is decisive enough for our striker. I might play about with changing it to a false nine so he can drop a bit deeper and get more involved.

Thanks for the support though. I was thinking though that if I win the World club that I will leave Milan and go elsewhere. The problem is my comp is rubbish and can really only run 1 nation so I will have to remove Italy and go elsewhere.

Where do you guys think I should go to next if I win the World club?

You could stay with Milan and bring in youth and train them up. Otherwise I have had my eye on a Southampton save for a while, they have a good squad with some very decent young players.

Could you screenshot Balotelli for me? Not sure why he isn't scoring as I have seen another forum post saying him and Matri are an amazing combo!?!
 
WIll do Joe, With the change of league I won't be able to pick a specific club, just the nation in which I go to next. I will need to apply for a job as/when they become available. I am only thinking about leaving tho IF I win the World club Championship.

As I play with one up top I cant really try them as a combo. I don't know if he's just being a moody wee sh**e or if my tactics don't fully utilise a ST.

With one striker I would set Balotelli as a target man, and play ball to his feet. Without looking I'd guess he would have decent capability for the role :)

Ballotelli as requested. I'm going to try him as a false 9 and see if it improves his form. I'm hoping that by dropping him deeper he can become more involved

Club World Championship 2014 Semi Final

An easy victory here against a really poor team. I expected to win by about this much.

Another easy victory. They didn't even manage a shot at goal. 6 Tournaments entered and 6 trophies in the cabinet. I'm pretty sure that I will leave Milan at the end of the season. Leave suggestions as to which league to load up as I am restricted to 1.

League Update 2014/2015

​
So I have played up until the 1st January and i thought I would just show how the league is loooking. I am quite confident that after playing the games in hand that I will have a small gap at the top.

I will update the cups in the same manner as last season. Thanks for reading and remember to leave suggestions as to my next destination.
 
How the **** have Juve played 18 and you have played 14 haha

Hows Balotelli doing now? I still think you should try him as a target man as his teamwork and work rate are really low ;)

He's still pretty poor. I think 7 goals in 20 ish games. Due to his low stats I thought the poacher role would suit him down to the ground. I'm so many games behind due to the World Club Championship and playing the 2 supercups (A treble before December has finished (H))

Chelsea are sniffing around Mario however so if a bid of 30 mil plus comes in I think he'll be off. My squad has suffered quite a few injuries so the winter break has came at the right time. A few weeks off and then the squad will be playing 2 games a week until the end of the season. I could do with a wee transfer budget boost just to reinforce especially as both Kaka and Robinho are deteriorating as players at a rate of knots. Robinho is only 30 as well

I'd recommend The Football League(Championship). 2nd tier English league. You'd get bored winning trophies with the biggies IMO, unless it's your favorite team ofc. ;)

Maybe your right. I am quite keen to be the Scottish Mourinho though. I wonder how many champions leagues I can win with different teams? I am fairly sure that this is my last season with Milan though. I have won every trophy possible.

In fact I think I will do that. Try and win the top division, national cup, champions league and World club Championship with teams from as many nations as possible.

How does that sound? I will need to apply for the job though, I won't just takeover a team so in theory the team I take overshould be in a bit of trouble.
 
Try a relegation threatened Championship team?

I'm starting a save with MK Dons, they're a club with no history, I'll make it. ;)
 
Started a Milan save myself mate. How'd you get Ter Stegen? Im really struggling at full back at the minute. They're all performing really poorly but on the plus side Balotelli at Poacher is tearing it up. Home records brilliant but struggling away.

The league itself is really poor. 71 pts won me the league. I didnt spend too much the first summer and then i sold Nocerino for 8.5 which meant I had about 10 mil and I just offered 40m over months roughly during late Oct/early Nov and he signed no bother. His wages were reasonable too, approx 40kpw.

Juventus apart there is no team that should be too problematic. I bought a new young left back as cover (Murru) and found that I had plenty of options at rb (Abate,de Sciglio, Zaccardo and even Bonera) De Sciglio definetly need a season to develop as he isn't that good at first. He's now undisputed 1st choice though. Glad you managed to get Ballotelli firing. He must of played at least 60 games for me and has about 25/30 goals which wouldn't be too bad if he wasn't up top himself squandering approx 4 clear cut chances a game.

Ps I fancy learning German. I'l have a look at the shaky jobs at the end of the season before I decide where to go.
 
He misses a lot for me too and his long range shooting is frustrating but he's managing in average 1 in 2 and Matri 1 in 3. I brought in Balanta and Honda. Must agree about DiSciglio. Great potential but hes poor first season.

I wouldn't mind him missing a few shots as currently he does nothing. He has slightly improved but if Chelsea want him and the money is good then he's off. Might be able to get some good cash for him. I am hoping to get a good part of the season done tonight. Keep u all posted

I was surprised when it happened but the league was very weird. I mean I won it with 71 points which normally I would be surprised to get top 4 with. When I saw they went down I was licking my lips with the thoughts of poaching the best players but De Rossi wanted 180k a week so I thought better of it.

Not been able to get much played over the weekend but I am hoping to batter the rest of the season tonight and hopefully update it too. THat will leaveme with the decisio as to stay in Italyor move elsewhere. I fancy the idea of Germany or France. Not sure as to where though. I'm pretty sure England will be my last stop. It all depends on how it all goes but 4 champions leagues from 4 different nations sounds good to me.
 
Just read from the start, great work with Milan mate! What about 1860 Munich in Germany next? Would be nice to see you topple Bayern as the top club in Munich...

An other idea would be to look at any majorly under performing 'big' teams on your save and then try to do a similar job there as what you've done with Milan. Good luck with whatever you choose, I'll be following!

Cheers, I won't be picking my next team as I will have to apply for it so I will just load a new nation and wait for the first job that tickles my fancy but I want a big team and as they are looking for a new manager they will probably have been struggling. Basically I want to be the Scottish Mourinho.
I may do 1860 on another save as I quite like the thought of toppling Bayern. Also becauseof you I have became fond of the Welsh league and my last fm13 save was with Bangor City where I won 5 back to back titles and was just starting to impress in Europe so I might try that again.

Hopefully get the league finished tonight and then load up either France or Germany (leaning towards Germany) and wait for the offers to come rolling in.
 
Spain would be my choice if i was you. I've got an Atletico madrid save just now and really enjoying it
