Europa League 2nd Knockout rnd - March 2018

1st Leg - Home V CSKA Moscow

View attachment 430669

A comfortable win as we show out of the two teams that our side has grown and we have become a more dominant force in the past 2 seasons.

2nd leg - Away - CSKA Moscow

View attachment 430668

We get beaten 2-0 in Russia as we travel badly but its still not enough and we qualify for the Europa League Quarter Finals for the 3rd year in a row.

We get probably one of the easier teams left but it looks like a tougher challenge this year with both Milan teams there and Real Madrid.

David Butter The Perfect Week

In what has already been an incredible season for the young Scotsman banging in 22 goals for Dundee United he signed a new deal with his boyhood club after interest from Chelsea and Man Utd.

League Cup Final 2018 V Celtic

View attachment 430660

Butter gets the early goals in the game to give Dundee United a decent lead but going into the second half Celtic come back stronger and manage to get it to extra time, The winner was scored by a former Celtic prospect in the form of Tony Watt.

March Fixtures

As you can see at the age of 17 David Butter has become our main goal threat now pushing out the older players like Gary Hooper who doesnt get a look in anymore.

League Table

View attachment 430657

A massive 32 points clear at the top now and after retaining the title the main ambition has got to be beating Celtics all time points record of 103.

Player Stats

View attachment 430656

Ryan Dow and Ryan Gauld continue to be my creative forces down the flanks and despite getting outshone by Butter in recent weeks Tony Watt is still our top goalscorer.​
 
Quality read, just sat in college reading this for about 2 hours. What surprises me the most is that away from home you seem to dominate in Europe, don't think you've had a bad result! As an avid Celtic fan, I'm disappointed at how they declined, makes me want to start one with a lower Scottish team and take them to the top like you.

Anyway cracking read and i'll be following for sure.
 
This was a great read reminds me of a game I had with Stenhousemuir took me 12 years to finally win the Champions League. Its always tough playing with alot of Scottish players and requires a bit of luck with regens but can be done.

Thanks for reading guys, I have found to start with that the Scottish players i could bring in were always going to be better than mine but in the middle few years did struggle hence why i bought a few foreigners but now the regens coming through look decent and scotland are qualifying for world cups and euro's so must be improving, Celtic have been an odd one, first of all why they still have Neil Lennon in charge when hes been so poor in recent seasons, They sell all of their best players and then bring in loans and frees yet never have any money. Thanks

Europa League Quarter Finals - April 2018

1st Leg - Home V Malaga

View attachment 430346

Oh dear could our race for a 3rd straight Europa League be dashed by Malaga? They scored the winner with 10 minutes to go then our captain Scott Brown got sent off in the dying seconds of the game.

2nd Leg - Away - Malaga

View attachment 430345

A 4-1 dominant display into extra time earns us a 5-3 win on aggregate and progression into the final 4, We didnt even score a goal in normal time as Malaga gifted us the tie.

Europa League Semi Final Draw

Oh ******, I didnt expect to be facing Real Madrid in the Europa League, I cant see there being a 3rd Europa League Final in a row.

Europa League Semi Final - April/May 2018

1st Leg - Home V Real Madrid

View attachment 430342

An own goal and a Tony Watt strike keeps us in with a chance but Real Madrid showed their class, They have barely changed their squad in 5 seasons with only the one first team change.

2nd Leg - Away - Real Madrid

View attachment 430341

They only just beat us. . . . . As Real Madrid march on and win the Europa League in the final and steal it from my Dundee United side who had previously won it 2 years in a row.

April Fixtures

View attachment 430340

While all of the European games were going on we still managed to make it through to our 5th straight Scottish Cup Final, the league form suffered a bit with a couple of draws as i played completely rotated squads for those matches so my best players were fresh.

League Table

View attachment 430339

34 points clear with Celtic in 4th place and Aberdeen relegated, We have 3 games left and if we win all of them we break the record for most points in a season.

So we won our 3 remaining league games and won the league with an incredible 104 points.

League Table

View attachment 430333

So we won the league by a massive 40 points in the end! We almost managed to get twice as many points than our closest rivals which is just mental, Biggest shocks were Aberdeen getting relegated and Celtic finishing 4th and keeping Neil Lennon on.

Team Stats

View attachment 430332

We had our defence to thank for such an impressive season as we concede less than half of the amount of goals than the nearest team.

Player Stats

View attachment 430331

Dow and Gauld again had impressive seasons but the rotation policy for the strikers probably hurt them the most with trying to win the Golden Boot.

Scottish Cup Final V Inverness

View attachment 430330

A late goal by unsung hero Ryan Dow sees us win our 5th straight Scottish Cup and complete another treble.

Superb story! I've started a Dundee United save finding it hard to keep Mackay-Stevens happy but doing well so far and mackay stevens playing great since he said he wants to leave lol.

He did really well for me to start with in the first few seasons but as i play with an ML and MR rather than attacking wingers he was dropped more and more in favour of Dow and Gauld, How has Brian Graham been for you? He had an amazing couple of seasons for me then just crashed out.

Top Goalscorer - Tony Watt - 28 Goals

View attachment 429936

Despite major competition from Butter, Tony Watt still managed to score the most goals this season.

Player of the Season - Ryan Gauld

View attachment 429935

Gauld has another outstanding season and can you believe that hes only 22! Hes not even reached his prime yet, This is really a side full of homegrown talent with the likes of Gauld, Souttar, Robinson, Dow, Butcher and Butter all likely to play 10 plus years for us.

Young Player of the Year - David Butler

View attachment 429934

26 goals for a 17 year old is just a little bit mental, Hes become one of our best players in just a couple of seasons and the one to look out for next season is Jim Robertson will be a star to match Butter.

Season Expectations

View attachment 429913

After spending a lot of money last year and signing a lot of players i decided to see what some of the youth had to other and only brought in the one player.

Phil Bent - DR - Loan

View attachment 429912

So this young English RB is my only signing and i think he will fit straight into the RB position ahead of the ageing Whittaker.

Players Out

A lot of players went out on loan but the big deal was Kennedy leaving for ?4million, A good bit of buisness as we signed him for ?1.1million and he barely got a look in so we snapped up this offer when we got it.

View attachment 429911View attachment 429910

Right so thats pre-season all done, Will post the first few months of the season up tomorrow before i go to work
