Europa League Quarter Final 2020

Chelsea Crush Us In England

View attachment 447942

So Jose Mourinho is still in charge of Chelsea and they have a very strange Cup History since 2013 only winning the Europa League once and coming runners up in the Europa League twice not really what the hundreds of millions they have spent was suppose to get them.

Lose In Portugal Too

View attachment 447941

So we dominated possesion in Portugal but yet again were not clinical in front of goal as Chelsea knock us out of the Europa League

Chelsea went on to reach the Europa League Final and lost to my old team PSG! So thats two big spending teams in the second rate cup.

So in between the two Chelsea losses i played a second team to keep my players fresh and we got beaten again but managed to win 3 in a row after we put the Europa League and my worst run to date as a Manager of 3 losses in a row behind us.

League Table

Only 2 games to go and Sporting have moved above Porto and are only 2 points behind us so this will go down to the wire.

Benfica Squad In Order of Apps

View attachment 447925

So i was planning on staying at Benfica for at least another season hence why i have 5 players coming in on bosman free transfers in the summer and have taken a closer look at the youth and facilities and even signed Ryan Gauld. But after winning the Domestic Treble this happened!

Full of decent looking regens now we are 8 seasons in, hope to get a few updates out today just havent had the time or energy to do so, took over an international team right before the euro 2020 so have a lot to type up
 
Looking forward to it :D

Reckon you should upload your save as where you have been taking over loads of different teams I presume there isn't one team that is a dominant force in Europe at the moment?
 
Awesome story read through it all now eagerly waiting for an update, I say try your luck in russia

Job Centre

View attachment 447339

So the obvious job to go for is the Zenit one, im sure there is a bug with Shakhtar as they haven't had a manager in almost 2 seasons.

Marco Van Basten New Benfica Boss
View attachment 447337

So it only took 6 days to replace me!

Spain Offer Me Job

View attachment 447336

So Spain have offered me the chance to be in charge of them for Euro 2020, I didnt even apply for the job or have an interview! After not even getting a look in with the Scotland job it was a bit of a suprise, Spain are only ranked 11th in the World at the moment though.

Squad Overview 2020

Squad In Order of Value

View attachment 447329

Beyond Shatov, Grobkreutz and Ansaldi i dont recognise anybody and i assume most of them are regens 8 seasons in.

Key 3

Lourenco - DMC

View attachment 447328

He joined from Flamengo at the beginning of last season for a mere ?4million and is already worth well over triple that!


Walter Rosi - CM

View attachment 447327

More good buisness from the previous manager as he also came in at the beginning of the season from another Russian club (Terek) for ?4million after leaving Chievo in 2014 for ?3million.


Maikel Meeuwsen - ST

View attachment 447326

The youngster scored 23 goals in 26 games in his debut season at Zenit costing them ?10million from Ajax, Should be our main goal threat this season.

Zenit Trophy History Since 2013

View attachment 447320

So Zenit have not won the Russian Premier League in 4 seasons as CSKA Moscow have dominated in recent years, We have a fair job on our hands especially as the predicted budget is ?8million.
