We come from 2-0 down against Hajduk to grabbing a draw thanks to Rodriguez and Halilovic we then beat Zadar 3-1 and then put 4 past Otok in the Cup with mainly our reserve team with youngster Valentino Babic netting his first goal for the club.
We ended the month with a back and forth game against Inter Zapresic going from 2-0 up in the first half to then being pegged back 2-2 but we then brought on Marcos Lopes who netted two late goals to win it for us.

Lopes who has only just come back from a broken leg will miss 5 more months after tearing his calf.

Next up in the Champions League we managed a 1-1 draw against Borussia Dortmund which would seem a very good result but we really should have won the match with Kramaric putting us in front until Barbosa netted a late equalizer for them.

Along with our amazing exploits in Europe we beat Split 2-0 in the league before putting 6 past Istra with Halilovic netting a 9 minute Hattrick.

A huge result in Germany as we beat Dortmund in a back and forth game, they had a shed load more chances and the better possession but we had Bacolla who netted a hattrick to secure a huge 5-4 win over Dortmund

DMC Borovec Injured too

My 300th game as Dinamo boss is against Real Madrid were we could make the Knockout stages of the Champions League for the first time what a way we have come!

View attachment 223003

Dinamo beat Real Madrid! Dinamo Beat REAL MADRID!!!!! We comfortably beat Real at our place 3-1 thanks to a brace from Tiago and a penalty from loanee Barcelona player Halilovic. Our counter attacking style of play is working wonders in Europe at the moment and having players fresh by resting them in league games must be helping too.

We couldnt have got off to a worse start as Januzaj put Man U ahead within the 1st minute of the game and we had to wait until early in the second half before netting the equalizer through Kramaric.
Around 10 minutes later we had the chance to go into the lead after Kramaric was brought down in the box but Halilovic fluffed his chance to become a Hero and missed the penalty.

Well what can i say it was only 3-2 after half time to them on the night and we had missed a penalty,they then netted again to make it 4-2 so they are now 6-5 on aggregate and all we need is one goal so we go on the all out offensive and they slaughter us with a further 4 goals in the last 10 minutes.

I know man, in my next post i mention about the fact he doesnt make the Euro 2020 squad for Croatia and i couldnt believe it! They have got some big players in the middle at Croatia but even my 31 year old midfielder Sertic makes the team but he doesnt!

3 wins and a draw to end the season but the best part was Bacolla coming back from his long term injury to net in 3 out of the last 4 matches.

27 points clear at the top of the table as we win the league at a canter, what i think is even more impressive is that my two best players are Croatian and my main starting 11 consists of 5 Croatian players.

Pre-Season

So first off there was a couple of huge outgoing transfers.

Kramaric our Top Goalscorer for the past few seasons has joined Juventus for £14Million as we decided to cash in on him now hes about to turn 30

View attachment 221964

The other huge deal was Bacolla joining CSKA Moscow for £14.25Million, im surprised a bigger team didnt come in for him but with 2 years left on his deal and his recent injury troubles i was happy to cash in on him

View attachment 221963

So with these two leaving i had 4 players come in on free transfers

View attachment 221962

First up is 22 year old Yameogo who i see as my rotational main striker having lost Kramaric and Bacolla

View attachment 221961

Left winger Krejci comes in also for the departing Bacolla who played a lot of his matches on the wing

View attachment 221960

With Xavi retiring we needed another Central Midfielder from Spain so brought in Iturraspe from PSG who paid around £30Million for him just 4 years ago.

View attachment 221959

And my last free transfer is probably my best ever, James Wilson joins from Man Utd and is valued at £11.25Million already and is only 24 i see him taking over from Kramaric in the goalscoring department.

View attachment 221958

So im now £71Million spent and £163Million brought in thats a total of £92Million profit for the club since i took charge!

Thanks man, been a silent follower of your story too, the league is a bit of a walk in the park now just really like focusing on the European games then getting to the summer to see how ive moved up in the rankings, think selling a lot of my better players each season has kept it fresh for me though.
