Ok, so Ivory Coasts World Cup begins!
First Game Ivory Coast Vs Holland!
Holland are firm favourites for this game, Holland have injury prone players, i have very physical players, therefore i will use heavy tackles hit them hard and hope to impose my team on the game!
Fantastic performance! Went down early started slow, but Drogba come back with a scorching strike from 30 yards, followed by him striking the bar and post on two seperate attempts, before putting us ahed by putting a ball in from the half way line that Kalou headed home.
Ivory coast Vs Saudi arabia
Firm favourites to win this, will use Drogba till i am winning and then rest him up
Drogba terrorised their defence, Kalou supplied fantastically easy win whilst Holland only managed a draw to Serbia, lets hope i can top the group!
Ivory Coast Serbia!
A lot of media hype has surrunded Drogba in this game, although his experience and ability to overcome the media is under no doubt, i have released comments backing that i believe that Drogba may have the ability to lead Ivory Coast to world cup sucess?!
he has reacted to this by saying he is determined to prove himself at the highest stage!
I am favourites to win this game! it will be a interesting game as they drew to Holland
Fantastic match, was real end to end stuff, Drogba nearly snatched it for us at the end although a terrible mistake from Fae, lead to a sloppy goal, he has for that lost his place for the last 16!
Good news it i now qualify as top of the group! Costa Rica is my reward!

So, into the last 16, the Ivorian Board are please i have met their target!
although for the second round my opponent is Costa Rica, i fancy my chances!
Costa-Rica Vs Ivory Coast
There has been many warnings of over confidence for this match from ex s stars, Drogba has been in the media reporting the team are eager to get into the game, will start the game warning them not to bee too confident!
today my lads sent out a message that we are here for a real challenge at this competition!
Drogba hit a tantalising 25 yard free kick, i also had 3 goals disallowed for offside, 2 from Kalou! very impressive display!
Quarter Final
Now it leads to a all African quarter final, Droga vs Eto, temper will flair, the fans will sing, and Africa will defiantly be in the semis, lets hops its the orange part!
Ivory Coast Vs Cameroon
Pressure was on my lads ! the rivalry between these nations is fierce, it was always bound to be a close game! probably the two best African nations at the moment!
Two of the world heavy weights leading their home nations, the power and pace of Drogba Vs the intellect and pace if Eto.
Africa's talisman did what no other African nation has managed before, he scored the winner! great performance from the lads!
Semi Finals
The semi final draw sees my Ivory Coast team drawn against the French, unluckily they are preforming better than in life and Evra has not lead any rebellions as of yet! Can my lads preform a great giant slaying and even beat my expectations of reaching the final? Can Drogba lead them all the way! Africa has their hopes pinned on them!
What a game,....Nasri scored one of the screaming free kicks, early on in the game and i expected a cricket score, although less than a minute later Fae played a incisive ball into Drogba who does not miss, after turning Mexes inside out!
Drogba then returned the favour playing in Fae who slide the ball home only for Benzema to break African hearts by equalising, yet drogba went on a run turning Sagna and striking the ball with venom, Lloris failed to hold and Gervinho pounched on the loose ball to send South Africa into mayhem! Maradona did it, Pele did it, Socratiez nearly did it,....Can Drogba lead the Coast to glory?
THE FINAL
A very poor Brazilian performance was matched by a disappointing Drogba. a nightmare for Yaya Toure, although heroic performances from Kalou, Gervinho and Copa. Copa previously had been the weak link in the team! Although it was not enough to win the game...
Recrods broken, Brazilian hearts broken, Africa united and Drogba Immortalised as he has lead the first ever African nation to a World up victory! As penalties decided the winner!
Played this game for the drawer, plaid a defensive rigid game with Toure and Fae sitting back! it worked a treat, frustrating the Brazilians, Kaka came close a couple of times although it was all, as the coast blocked off the goal area preventing the Brazilians slicing through them!
A truely heroic performance from the Ivory Coast! Masterminded by their managed who has proven to out whit the teams he faced, whilst getting the best out of his star players! whilst carrying out his search for summer signings and assessing and removing deadwood from the team!
if anyone has any questions about the world cup victory please ask
i will be posting my pre season preparations with the citizens soon, still looking for the best signings at the moment

CENTER]
Season Aims
- Reach at least the Champions League Quarter Finals
- Defender the English Premier League Title
- Use Youth players to reach at least the Semi finals in the domestic compeitions
- Develop new youth players, introduce last years youth more often giving them starting opportunities as well as substitue appearances!
The Squad
As everyone knows Manchester City is exceptionally wealthy, due to their lack of European reputation, or champions league qualification in the first years, the players which they attracted were leeches, players who simply wanted extortionate wages for example Robinho, Adeybaor and company. Now i have got players who want to play for the citizens, therefore i think its time to burn the deadwood, i have a strong belief of if your in form you play, if not i get rid, no matter the reputation of the player
Also i have a extremely strong selection of very young, very talent players rapidly developing into very capable players.
Secondly it seems that Manchini and Mark Hughes had no respect of consistancy in preformance, the second most valuable characteristic to me.
Therefore as you can guess the thing i most hate are inconsistency in performance from players who are over paid players. this has lead to be giving a lot of players the chop!
Transfers
Most influential transfers
Out
Stephen Ireland - Gave him his chances last season, scouts say he has potential to be decent, although i feel he has reached his full potential, i know his stats may change a little but he just isnt in the same league as Verrati, Hamsik and Aguero. Also Ireland was on 80K a week! :O compared to Aguero who is my other highest on 70k a week! no way is Ireland worth it!
i think i ripped Liverpool's arms off never mind hands getting 13 mill for him !
Lescott - 100k a week for someone who was been out played by 18 year old lads, 24 million offer from Man U, thought i was dreaming, the funds went to paying for two kids worth a lot more than him
Adeybaor - inconsistent , lazy over paid 150k a week :O Doesn't score enough or provide tevez as much Santa Cruz, Celtic and others offering 15 mill think he will be gone
In
Dzeko - Hoping he will supply in quantity the ideal target man to be rotated with Santa Cruz
Badstuber - 21 year old fantastic ball playing defender, perfect to let Rodwell to move into the Anchor man role since Barry will only last 1 more season before i cash in on him. Will be star
Danny Wilson - Compliment Badstuber beautifully pacey lad who works in the Cover role. 18 Years old got 12 seasons in him
only 10 million its a ******.
Akinfeev - Given is good for the Premiership but isn't good enough to conquer the world, relentlessly per suited this guy in the media since they wanted 39 mill, he wanted to leave and in the end they gave in at 26
Dodo - this guy was 1.4 mil, best pre season player
the fans adore him, hope he keeps it up in the premier league. Best crosser of the ball in the team.
Pre Season Results
A lot more impressive display this season destroyed Chelsea with my youth lads as well. i feel the team has bedded together and this season is going to be a good one!
Also Manchester United first game of the season, i have approached it with a arrogant abuse of Ferguson and his players, looking to blitz their defense with the pace of Aguero and Hamsik, while Dodo bombs forward, as i know Lescott is very vulnerable to pace!
Will do my Mid-season update next
Are people still following by the way? if not i will stop updating as it takes quiet a lot of time to do it in the depth, then just get on with my game
