Well done on getting your titles back. Rivas must be up for a testimonial soon he was part of your first youth intake wasn't he?

I hope Messi doesn't retire any time soon either kiu

Messi is 38 and has another 3 years on his contract but i dont think that will stop him retiring if he wants to, got to give him game time so he doesnt go. And yes Rivas has been here 10 years but not sure if he will get a testimonial any time soon as hes been out on loan and wasnt a first team player for the first few years

Great to see your youth players making a name for themselves in 1st team, even pushing Messi onto the bench (in Best Eleven)! Hopefully you can continue to dominate with plenty of other youngsters coming through. Really enjoying the story, KIU!

I know Messi and Neymar are on the way out, i would love to see Messi reach 40 playing for us though so got to try and get him some game time.

Hey man I love your story and hope you get to top 1000! Just one question for an FM newbie: when you scout players on your national team, do you use your team's scouts or is there a better way? Thanks

Usually just have my assistant Gary Neville scout anyone im sceptical on but in general i will either already have some info on him or he will be an obvious choice like a new LB worth £20Million i would just put him in the team to see what hes like.

So i just brought in one player 19 year old Orlando Payan for a massive £26Million, its not all upfront but is a big outlay if he continues to play for us.

So it was a different story when it mattered against Valencia though as we lost 3-1 in the 1st leg of the Spanish Super Cup before beating them just 2-1 in the return leg to lose the Cup.

So first off the Champions League went as planned as we beat Fenerbache in back to back European games before snatching a 1-0 win against Plzen.
So we were undefeated this month in the league from 8 games but were set back big time with 3 draws against lowly oposition like Granada, Cordoba and Celta whilst our 3-0 win against Athletic Bilbao looks all the more important once you see the Table.

Top by 2 points after a 15 game unbeaten run to start the season with Bilbao the surprise 2nd place team with big spending Valencia down in 5th.

So along with the aforementioned games we beat Racing over two legs in the 1st rnd of the Spanish Cup drew 3-3 against Real Madrid in a highly entertaining game and then beat Levante in our last league game of the month.

2 points clear at the top at the turn of the year but there is only 3 points between the top 4 so theirs no room for mistakes. Our first game next month is against At Madrid in the league.

Best Player - Despite pushing 34 Neymar has netted 20 goals in 24 games.

Would be great if you managed the unbeaten season!

What's the likelihood of Neymar getting a contract extension or will next season be the end of an era?
 
Don't let neymar go! I've never had a testimonial for a player in my sides let alone 7! Shows I probably tinker and change too much. Kiu

Would love an unbeaten season. may be able to do it now ive filled the squad out with new players in recent transfer windows, Neymar will hopefully be getting a new deal its just some of this old guys dont like taking a pay cut! Busquets at 36 wanted a pay rise!

Ha Ha yeah ive had a couple but never this many, would love to keep Neymar but it all depends on if he drops his wage demands he is arguably still our best player despite his age

Excellent! Been ages on your save, and the story is still absolutely fresh and interesting!
