European Super Cup V Man Utd

View attachment 251568

Suarez opened the scoring before Witsel hit back immediately for them but we then had Pedro score a quick brace in the second half before Januzaj got one back for them but it wasnt enough and we secure the European Super Cup for the second time since i took over.

Spanish Super Cup V Real Madrid

View attachment 251564

So we lost the 2st leg 2-1 but we had Suarez back for this leg and he starred as our Captain getting two goals and setting up Pedro's goal to secure the Cup we had a late scare with Real's new striker Jovic getting a late goal but it wasnt enough for them.

Just wondering what transfer budget you've been given at this point? Must be enormous!
 
Great story mate! I like how you speed through the season and it's great to see you winning trophies without buying players. Keep it going :)
 
Great story, you always manage to speed through the seasons, how do you play so fast?!
 
I was thinking what Patrick mentioned above, Your finances must look top notch! Not possible to upgrade the facilities further?

Thanks guys, first off with the budgets my transfer budget is only around £95Million and £1Million to spare in wages because of a few reasons, first i guess im not really selling anyone for big money even though thats counteracted by not buying anyone but the likes of MSN earn over £350k a week each and the main thing that hurts us at the moment is the loans we still owe over £100Million up until 2025 when its all paid off, my expenditures are around the same as my income aswell but hopefully my next generation of youth players wont be on such ridiculous money!

I get through the seasons quite quickly anyway but ive been on holiday for around a week now and have 5 more days off so will be plenty of updates, i also like to play a few months in advance so i have something to post up whenever like now im already well into 2020. thanks for comment guys

It was easy in the Champions League with 4 wins in a row scoring 19 goals including putting 7 past PSV whilst in the League we had 5 impressive wins to go along with the loss to At Madrid and a bore draw with Getafe.

Cant get much better than 7 points clear at the top of the table and Real Madrid down in 4th, i did think Valencia would start to come good after their recent signings.

We won our group by 6 points but none of our players really shone and i dont think we have enough to threaten anyone for the Euro's next year with my former team Holland the current World Champions surely the favourites.

We get a favourable draw in the Knockout stages of the Champions League and will face Portuguese side Porto.

View attachment 251405

We beat Iranian side Esteghlal 3-0 thanks to late goals from Pedro and Sergi Roberto before beating Mexican Champions Chivas in the Final 4-1 with even 35 year old Andres Iniesta even getting on the scoresheet to secure our 2nd Club World Championship and my 22nd Trophy overall and 20th with Barcelona

So look out for the likes of Halilovic and Traore coming to the fore in the next few months as i forgot Traore was even in the youth teams after his recent loan spell and i want to give both of them more game time so they sign new deals.​

Winter Transfer Window Round-up

View attachment 251237

So the big news of this transfer window was the big losses Valencia and Real Madrid made on some outgoing players having paid £15Million plus for Mitrovic and Drmic they leave for just a fraction of the price.

Spanish Cup

So in the 2nd leg against Eibar we put 8 past them before beating Almeria emphatically to winning 6-1 over two legs to set up a Quarter Final against R.Sociedad.
We actually lost to them in the 1st leg back at their pace 2-1 but turned it around in the second leg with Pedro getting a late brace to see us through to the Spanish Cup Semi Finals.
We then faced high flying Valencia in the Semi Finals beating them comfortably at our place 2-0 before sneaking through on away goals to the Final after they smashed us 4-2 in the 2nd leg.
We face At Madrid in the Finals in mid April as the Cup Final is early this year due to Euro 2020.

Jan/Feb Results

View attachment 251235

It was plain sailing in the League as we put 7 past Rayo and 6 past Malaga on our way to securing 8 straight league wins with Traore coming back into the first team with a hattrick against Rayo! The only blip was losing to Porto at their place in the 1st leg of the Champions League Knockout stages after i said they were an easy draw!

League Table

View attachment 251230

7 points clear with 3 games in hand as we continue to dominate in the league but more importantly Real Madrid are down in 4th place and 13 points behind us.

Iniesta Breaks Xavi's most League appearances for Barcelona record

View attachment 251220

After i saw Iniesta break this record i kind of wondered what had happened to Xavi after i sold him to Liverpool a few seasons ago, and hes only still playing for Zaragoza B side at 40 years of age!

Traore Signs A New Deal after almost leaving

7 goals in 10 starts for Traore in recent weeks

I gave him his first Spain Cap in a recent friendly

Fast foward a few weeks and Traore didnt make the Spain Euro Squad so went to Mali instead!!!!

This could be the end of Traore at Barca

Champions League

So we managed to come from behind against Porto after losing the 1st leg 2-1 to smash 5 goals past them in the 2nd leg and set up a Quarter Final against Chelsea and my Spain Striker Diego Costa. They beat us 3-0 at their place before we only managed a 2-0 win at our place even though we had all the chances. Messi scored a penalty in the opening few minutes before Courtouis put the ball in his own net to give us a 2-0 lead with less than 20 minutes gone. We then spent the next 70 minutes trying to get a third goal to take it to extra time and just simply couldnt find the back of the net.

Just a quick question, what do people think of me re-signing players who are classed as homegrown at the club, its a pool of around 83 current players, most are rubbish but the likes of Balde Keita, Icardi and Thiago are their too, not that i would sign any of them its more if i get desperate as the last two youth intakes havent even mustered a 2 star potential player

Thanks man, im thinking if i have like a 1 star LB or GK not bringing in Balde Keita who plays the same position as Traore, Halilovic and that. thanks for reading havent heard from you in ages, going to do another story?
 
Icardi is great, no doubt...
and Thiago might be old now, no? but still he could be like Xavi towards the twilight of his career, I bet he has some amazing mental stats?

also, Xavi as a coach?

also, could you please show us what's happened to some of the current Barca players on your save? I mean their stats etc.. like Pedro, Deulofeu(4m to Everton IRL)!, Kaptoum, Munir, Montoya, Bartra?

thanks, and KIU!
