PHILLIPP WOLLSCHEID 2.8M
PAR HASSON 125K
LUKA JOVIC 3.3M ( ARRIVES IN JAN )

THIS SEASON IM EXPECTING A MUCH BETTER SEASON THEN THE LAST ONE . HAVING ONLY BEEN AT STOKE A FEW GAMES AND MANAGED THEM TO SAFETY IM HOPING FOR A MID TABLE FINISH AND THEN NEXT SEASON PUSH ON TO IMPROVE ON OUR POSITION.

HOW WILL THE OTHER MANAGER FAIR THIS SEASON???
I THINK ABE WILL BE STRONG AGAIN BUT COULD THE FORCE OF PLAYING CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FOOTBALL DESTROY HIS LEAGUE FORM POSSIBLY . LEWIE WILL BE LOOKING TO IMPROVE ON LAST SEASON FINISHING ABOVE HIS LAST POSITION I THINK HE IS CAPABLE AND I EXPECT HIM TO CHALLENGE FOR ONE OF THE CUPS . ALL THE BEST LADS!!!!!!

SOUTHAMPTON 2014/15 SEASON
View attachment 958030
PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS

AN OUTSTANDING SEASON, WE HAD A 3 MONTH SPELL WHERE WE ONLY DROPPED TWO POINTS IN THE LEAD UP TO DECEMBER. BUT TO PICK OURSELVES UP AFTER A JANUARY SLUMP AND WIN THIS DIVISION WAS UNREAL.
ADD TO THAT THE CONSTRAINTS OF THE 'POWER LEAGUE' (ONLY 2 LOANS ALL SEASON, NO PERMANENT TRANSFERS) THIS IS PROBABLY MY GREATEST ACHIEVEMENT IN FOOTBALL MANAGER HISTORY!

WE REALLY HAD A LOT RIDING ON CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FOOTBALL QUALIFICATION AND WINNING THE LEAGUE, AT LEAST THREE OF OUR TOP PLAYERS WOULD HAVE HANDED IN TRANSFER REQUESTS, WHICH WOULD'VE BEEN DEVASTATING TO OUR FUTURE AS A DOMINANT FORCE

View attachment 958033
CAPITAL ONE CUP CHAMPIONS

THIS MAY SEEM LIKE A MINOR ACHIEVEMENT BUT WINNING THIS GAVE US A FREEDOM KNOWING WE HAD ACHIEVED EURO QUALIFICATION. IM SURE THE EFFECT OF WINNING THIS TROPHY TO MORALE, GAVE US AN INSURMOUNTABLE HIGH.

THE PREMIER LEAGUE IN A NUTSHELL
View attachment 222630
FINISHING TOP MEANT IT WAS ALWAYS LIKELY FOR US TO HAVE SOME PLAYERS APPEAR ON THE FORM CHARTS. ALTHOUGH WE MISSED OUT ON TOP SPOT FOR ANY OF THE CATEGORIES, FIERRO'S EFFORTS WERE EXCEPTIONAL WITH THE LAD ALMOST REACHING 30 LEAGUE GOALS.
View attachment 222627
MYSELF AND LEWIE EXCEEDED OUR PREDICTED POSITIONS, SO IM SURE ROB WILL BE OUT TO PROVE A POINT NEXT SEASON.
I ALSO HAD 6 PLAYERS IN THE SELECT TEAM OF THE SEASON WHICH EPITOMISES THE WAY WE ALL PERFORMED TOGETHER TO ACHIEVE OUR SUCCESS.
View attachment 222625
FIERRO DOMINATED THIS AWARD AND RIGHTLY SO!
View attachment 222622
NOT QUITE SURE HOW THE JUNIOR FIERRO GOT ON HERE (TWICE) (MEANING HE WON PLAYER OR YOUNG PLAYER OF THE MONTH 6 OUTOF10 TIMES)?!?
AND WITH TADIC AND CLYNE SOUTHAMPTON WON HALF THE AWARDS AVAILABLE, WITH NONE GOING TO OUR RIVALS!!

FINANCIAL BREAKDOWN
WE HAVE MADE A SHED LOAD OF MONEY THIS SEASON. AND THANKS TO THE 'POWER LEAGUE' RESTRICTIONS ON THE FIRST SEASON, WE HADN'T SPENT A PENNY.

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE QUALIFICATION AND WINNING THE PREMIER LEAGUE HAVE PROVED SO LUCRATIVE.

ALL TRANSFERS COMPLETE UNDER THE 'POWER LEAGUE' RULES AND STILL A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY IN THE TRANSFER KITTY. ALTHOUGH SOME OF THIS WILL BE USED TO BALANCE OUR WAGES!

TRANSFERS IN-

ALL MY TARGETS WERE SUCCESSFULLY ACQUIRED, IT WAS FAIRLY EASY AS THREE WERE LOANS WITH FUTURE FEES ATTACHED (SIMPLY PERFORMED SO WELL HAD TO BE MADE PERMANENT)
View attachment 222594
THE OTHER THREE WERE SECURED BEFORE CLOSE OF SEASON, I WANTED THE MAXIMUM TIME FOR THEM TO SETTLE.
View attachment 222593
ALTHOUGH I HAVE AN ADVANTAGE AS 3 OF MY 6 ARE ALREADY SETTLED AT THE CLUB!


TRANSFERS OUT-
View attachment 222590
I LIKE PELLE, BUT HE NEVER QUITE DELIVERED FOR ME. WITH THE STYLE I PLAY I NEED MY FRONT MAN TO BE FAR MORE MOBILE AND CAPABLE WITH THE BALL AT HIS FEET AS THEY CAN QUITE OFTEN BE LEFT IN 2/3 VS. 1 SITUATIONS, AND AS FIERRO SHOWED THE RIGHT MAN CAN BE DEVASTATING IN THIS ROLE.

SOUTHAMPTON 2015/16 SEASON

PRE-SEASON UPDATE

PRE-SEASON RESULTS
View attachment 222518
WE AGAIN HAD AN UNDEFEATED PRE-SEASON, CONCEDING ONLY 2 GOALS IN 6 GAMES. BEATING BOTH FIORENTINA AND MILAN IN THE PROCESS.
View attachment 222517
HOWEVER WE WERE DISAPPOINTING AGAINST UTD IN THE CHARITY SHIELD, ALTHOUGH I DID LEAVE IT TO MY ASSISTANT, PRIMARILY STILL SEEING IT AS A MATCH FITNESS BUILDING FRIENDLY.

NEW SIGNINGS-

I WOULDVE PROBABLY WANTED TO KEEP ALL LOAN SIGNINGS IF NOT FOR ELIA'S BIG INJURY IN FEBRUARY. HOWEVER THESE GUYS BECAME KEY MEMBERS OF OUR SQUAD SO I SPLASHED THE CASH TO MAKE THEM SAINTS!

OUR THREE OTHER DEALS WERE REALLY ABOUT BOOSTING OUR DEPTH AND QUALITY.

ALEXANDRE LACAZETTE
View attachment 222509
PACE, FLAIR DRIBBLING ABILITY IN ABUNDANCE. ALONG WITH FIERRO (COMING BACK FROM A BAD BROKEN FOOT INJURY) AND JAY RODRIGUEZ WE HAVE EXACTLY THE STRIKE FORCE WE NEED.

EDER BALANTA
View attachment 222507
WE DIDNT HAVE ANY AGGRESSIVELY MINDED COVER FOR WHEN FONTE WAS OUT, AND IT SHOWED. TO BE HONEST THIS LAD WILL BECOME GOOD ENOUGH TO BE FIRST CHOICE, AND HE'S GOOD COVER AT LB TOO!

JASPER CILLESSEN
View attachment 222508
WE HAD A GK RETIRE AND ONE HAND IN A TRANSFER REQ SO THIS WAS A NO BRAINER. THANK GOD FORSTER DIDNT GET INJURED LAST SEASON AS HE WAS AWESOME, BUT JASPER HAS ALL THE ATTRIBUTES TO BECOME A TOP KEEPER.


EXPECTATIONS AND GOALS

THE BOARD SEEM TO THINK WE'VE NOW BECOME ESTABLISHED SEASONED CHAMPS!!! NO PRESSURE, BUT THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE 1/4'S ARE THEY CRAZY!!
View attachment 222506


THE MEDIA SIMPLY DOESN'T AGREE
View attachment 222501

FORMATIONS

AFTER THE SUCCESS OF LAST SEASON WE OBVIOUSLY WILL PLAY FAIRLY SIMILAR. I HAVE DECIDED TO GO WITH A FLAT 4411 FOR OUR HOME GAMES AND AWAY GAMES WHERE WE ARE FAVOURITES AND A 4141 FOR TOUGHER GAMES. BUT WE WILL ALSO TRAIN A THIRD MYSTERY FORMATION AS SUCCESS AGAINST OUR RIVALS WAS INCONSISTENT AWAY FROM HOME.




WHO TO WATCH

IT HAS TO BE LACAZETTE, 7 GOALS PRE-SEASON HAS GOT ME EXCITED. IMAGINE GETTING HIM AND FIERRO PLAYING TOGETHER...DREAMS.

RESULTS FOR AUGUST 2016

PREMIER LEAGUE

View attachment 222199THOUGHTS??? A tough first game but one I was hoping we could set the bar for us this season but we lost we were a little unlucky . A bit disappointed not to of got something but we will build on this.

View attachment 222198 THOUGHTS??? A great win away from home because as we know our away form wasnt amazing last season. Couldnt believe we went 2 down so early on but we got lucky having two penos but all in all we dominated the game . Good first win!

View attachment 222197THOUGHTS??? A huge manager rivalry game with the previous matches being draws against lewies side . 1st big big test of the season wanted to see what the lads had and they showed cracking win.

CAPITAL ONE CUP

View attachment 222196THOUGHTS??? A match I was expecting us to win easy and we did through to the next round!


CLUB MONTHLY REVIEW - A GOOD MONTH DESPITE THE ONE LOSS TO NEWCASTLE . THROUGH TO THE NEXT ROUND OF THE CUP DO I THINK WE CAN GO FAR YES I DO.

MANAGER MONTHLY REVIEW - WELL ID NEVER SAID ID BE SITTING ABOVE THESE 2 MANAGERS EARLY DAYS I KNOW BUT HAPPY TO OF GOT A FEW WINS IN EARLY LIFT MORALE . ABES GOT BIGGER FISH TO FRY IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE BUT ITS WAY TO EARLY TO BE SAYING WHOS DOING WHAT .

The End

I feel like this job is too much, I can't cope that well with mass pressure. My ability is not the best, I'll admit that, but I'm not really that committed, I seem to get the feeling that my mind is drifting off towards other stuff, and not fully at this job at hand. I'm sorry to everyone at Swansea FC, but I'll have to retire from the job and the game in general.

Again, I'm sorry for anyone who liked me, I recommend to support Abe Manager/Soppy now, they seem to be the 2 top managers now.

STOKE 3 - 0 YEOVIL
Sorry no screenshot forgot to do it! . It was a easy enough win just what i expected .


MONTHLY CLUB REVIEW - Wouldnt of been a bad month really but with the huge loss to liverpool it has to go down as a bit of a poor one . glad to still be on capital one cup.


MONTHLY MANAGERS REVIEW - Well its been a weird one with lewie sadly stepping down . Abe has lost his consistency aswell so poor month from all managers really.

SOUTHAMPTON 2015/16 SEASON

AUG/SEPT/OCT UPDATE

View attachment 960522

I STOPPED EVEN ACKNOWLEDGING MY PREDICTIONS AND DIDN'T EVEN SET THEM FOR OCTOBER, I HAD MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO CONCENTRATE ON, TURNING AROUND OUR FORM AND CLIMBING THE TABLE! WE HAVE STARTED VERY POOR IN THE LEAGUE AND I AM SERIOUSLY WORRIED. WAS ROB'S PREDICTION OF THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE STRETCHING US TOO MUCH COMING TO FRUITION?

{AUGUST}
View attachment 221617
IT ALL STARTED SO WELL AGAINST WEST BROM, THEN A CLOSE DEFEAT AWAY TO ARSENAL (WHICH WAS ONLY MILDLY DISAPPOINTING) FOLLOWED BY YET ANOTHER DEFEAT TO OUR BOGEY TEAM NEWCASTLE. THIS WAS AT HOME AND HURT OUR MORALE A LOT.

{SEPTEMBER}
View attachment 221615
DESPITE THIS BAD START WE HAD AN UNDEFEATED MONTH IN THE LEAGUE FOR SEPTEMBER, BUT THE DRAW AGAINST A POOR PALACE WAS A HUGE TWO POINTS DROPPED AND WE ARE LACKING OUR KILLER INSTINCT THIS SEASON, NAMELY FIERRO. THE LAD GOT A BAD INJURY AT THE END ON LAST SEASON AND WAS OUT FOR 3/4MONTHS WHICH HAS CLEARLY SET HIM BACK AS HE IS YET TO OPEN HIS ACCOUNT FOR US.

{OCTOBER}
View attachment 221614
LACAZETTE, THANKFULLY HAS GOT OFF THE MARK FOLLOWING A SLOW START (HIM AND FIERRO'S EARLY POOR FORM CONTRIBUTING IN OUR TWO 1-0 LOSSES AND 0-0 DRAW). ANOTHER POOR MONTH OPENING WITH TWO DEFEATS, ANOTHER OF WHICH WAS 1-0 AT HOME! OUR FORM SEEMS TO BE SETTLING THOUGH ENDING WITH A GOOD DRAW AGAINST CITY.

PLAYER OF THE MONTH(S)
DUSAN TADIC

MANAGER SUMMARY

ROB MUCH LIKE OURSELVES IS STRUGGLING TO FIND ANY REAL FORM, HOWEVER WITH LOWER EXPECTATIONS TIME SHOULD BE ON HIS SIDE TO GEL HIS TEAM. WE ON THE OTHER HAND HAVE TO FIND OUR CONSISTENCY AND CLIMB UP THE TABLE, AND FAST. OUR BOARD EXPECTS TOP 4 AND I'M SURE THEY WONT ACCEPT US LANGUISHING DOWN IN 8TH FOR LONG!

View attachment 960559

ANOTHER LACLUSTRE PERFORMANCE FROM US, SO DISAPPOINTING TO BE DUMPED OUT AT THE FIRST STAGE OF A CUP WE WON LAST SEASON. IT WAS SPURS THOUGH, AND MAYBE WE COULD DO WITH LESS FIXTURES IF WE WANT TO PROGRESS IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE.

THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT THAT THESE INJURIES HAVE HAMPERED OUR EARLY SEASON PROGRESS. APART FROM JAY MOST ARE CLOSE TO RETURNING NOW AND HOPEFULLY OUR FORM OF LAST SEASON RETURNS WITH THEM.

RESULTS FOR OCTOBER 2016

View attachment 221381



View attachment 221380THOUGHTS??? A tough team to play one I wouldnt want to be playing now due to our poor form. Never thought we would get anything from this and we didnt we have to turn this around!



View attachment 221376
THOUGHTS??? We started the game so well but couldnt put our chances away and in the end got punished had a funny feeling this would happen!!! poor result .


View attachment 221379
THOUGHTS??? Cannot believe it! threw it away theres alot of work to be done if we are to get out of this rut! But i had us down to win this one we need to be beating the teams below us if we want to stay away from a relegation dog fight!!!


View attachment 221375
THOUGHTS??? Had us down to struggle against a spurs side much better then ours but the lads did us proud could of nicked it towards the end . but a draw against these with our current form isnt a bad result can we turn it around.


View attachment 961107



View attachment 221374
THOUGHTS??? WOW! I honestly thought we was gonna get our arses handed to us again today but we set our selves up well going 3-0 but almost threw it away letting them back in the game nail biting end to the game but were through to the next round!



MONTHLY CLUB REVIEW - OUR POOR FORM CONTINUES IN THE LEAGUE WE HAVE TO TURN IT AROUND! STILL IN THE CAPITAL ONE CUP AFTER THAT FAMOUS WIN OVER LIVERPOOL COULD WE WIN IT WHO KNOWS STRANGER THINGS HAVE HAPPENED IN FOOTBALL!

MONTHLY MANAGER REVIEW - WELL AFTER 10 GAMES ABES IS SITTING 8TH IN THE LEAGUE BUT DOING WELL IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE HES NOT BEEN CONSISTANT ENOUGH WORRIED ABOUT GETTING THE SACK NAH I THINK HE WILL BE FINE ASLONG AS HES IN THE CL STILL ALOT OF FOOTBALL TO BE PLAYED HE WILL TURN IT AROUND . AS FOR MY MANAGEMENT SKILLS THEY LOOK TO BE NON EXSISTANT AT THE MOMENT . WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF THIS ROT WE ARE IN!

SUMMARY

SUCH A GOOD MONTH, IN THE END...BUT TARNISHED, AGAIN, WITH YET ANOTHER POOR 1-0 HOME DEFEAT. WE WERE OUTSTANDING AGAINST ROB, AND I THINK HE FELT THE BACKLASH FROM OUR 1-0 HOME DEFEAT. 7 GOALS SCORED AND 1 CONCEDED IN 3 GAMES SOUNDS MUCH MORE LIKE OUR FORM OF LAST SEASON.

LEAGUE MATCH OF THE MONTH
View attachment 221169
IT HAS TO BE OUR GAME AGAINST ROB (SORRY MATE) WE DIDNT SET A FOOT WRONG FROM FRONT TO BACK, ALMOST COMPLETELY SHUTTING OUT HIS LADS. OUR ENCOUNTERS HAVE PREVIOUSLY BEEN VERY OPEN WITH THE WINNER OFTEN BEING THE MORE CLINICAL TEAM, TODAY WE DIDNT GIVE HIM A SNIFF!

PLAYER OF THE MONTH
SADIO MANE
View attachment 221167 View attachment 221168
OUR BEST LEAGUE PERFORMER WAS BETWEEN MANE AND LACAZETTE, BUT MANE WAS ALSO OUR SECOND HIGHEST LAST MONTH SO CONSISTENCY GIVES HIM THE NOD. HIS PACE AND DIRECTNESS SIMPLY TERRIFIES TEAMS.

MANAGER REVIEWS

MY FORMS PICKING UP AT LAST I THINK, WE STILL NEED TO CLIMB THE TABLE MORE FOR DEFINITE, BUT OUR CL PERFORMANCES HAVE BEEN SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF. I THINK DEFENSIVELY WE ARE NEAR LAST SEASONS BEST, BUT GOING FORWARD WE ARE STILL LACKING DESPITE LACAZETTE PLAYING MUCH BETTER, BUT THE POOR LAD FIERRO HAS STILL YET TO SCORE...A REAL CONCERN. ROB STILL SEEMS TO HAVE A BRUTALLY INCONSISTENT TEAM, SOMETIMES EVEN TO THE POINT OF BEING GREAT FIRST HALF AND WOEFUL THE SECOND. IM CONCERNED ITS AFFECTING HIS MORALE, I THINK HE NEEDS TO LOOK AT HIS APPROACH, HIS TEAMS DO NORMALLY PLAYS GOOD ATTACKING POSSESSION FOOTBALL, ARE THIS STOKE TEAM UP TO IT (PULIS?). CHIN UP MATE!
