El Gran Repte d'Andorra (The Great Andorran Challenge)

well done who would you say was your best player to come from your youth in both of your saves
 
Looking through previous posts, I see you are looking for a new challenge, so here is something completely left field, what about a pacific youth challenge with a team from Oceania e.g. Tahiti, Solomon Islands

Not quite finished this yet, I may lose in the group stage of the world cup yet! There are so many possibilities but I think once i've done this i'm just going to have a save where i'm not doing a story. Then after that save I may put it up for a vote or something lol

Right now it still has to be Da Silva from Guernsey, Though I would say a player I had called Song Lefeng on this save was better than him. But I signed Lefeng so not really in the spirit of things.

We are still getting used to this favourites tag, After being the underdog for so long.

No repeat of the horror show the last time we played Japan, We kept a tight line and our attacking play was as close to perfect as it gets. Japan barely got a sniff.

Mexico are a team we know we can beat, However they have beaten Brazil to get here.

Favourites for a major international tournament! That's never happened before......

Mexico proved why they got to this stage, Giving a few scares with there excellent movement. They just couldn't break through our defence though, on the odd occasion they did we had Sola there ready to repel them. This is our second international tournament and we are really a true world footballing power now.

Our players also cleaned up the awards and records.

The Andorran FA are rightly pleased.

After a very long very sleepless night, I finished another season! I'll do everything for the season in this post simply because i'm sat here with no distractions for the time being!

We've had 3 release clauses activated and another 2 members of the first team leaving on free's, Achieved all they can blah blah blah. Hernandez rejected £300k a week instead opting for £195k a week at Man City! I do have players to come in but alas it's rather annoying.

We romped our friendlies as I was in no mood after losing so many players.

3 losses 1 draw 34 wins. Apparently we didn't miss any players that much!

We won La Liga, Although honestly i'm just past caring about the domestic side now.

Copa Del Rey again and far to easily in fairness.

We were made to struggle in the world club cup, needing penalties in the end to secure it.

At one point I was convinced we were out of the champions league after losing 3-0 at old trafford, a 5-0 turn around later and we went all the way to reclaim our trophy.

The youth intake produced one decent player, Though him making it at this level has yet to be seen.

Jose Alberto Mainz
He's the determined sort so hopefully that can lead to him being something for club and country. He will need retraining as he plays a position we have never used. But certainly appears to have the required potential.

How the **** did Rostock reach the CL quarters?
Rostock are my feeder club! They had some what of a meteoric rise when we started sending quality youth there on a regular basis. They have won the Bundesliga about 4 times now!
 
End of season update for the NT 8 games to cover in here. Here they are in order.

Some excellent results, The one that stands out for me is the Germany game, This is the only time we have played them and we just played them off the park.

We have easily qualified for the world cup

Here is the group we have been given.

Italy are the only real threat in there, The other two I feel just make up numbers.​

Where they in the 2nd league when they were your feeder club at the start?

I think they were in the Bundesliga 2 when I got them so only a promotion off the Bundesliga. Then they got inundated with my youth team and the rest is history

You know you are good at FM when your feeder club is the next best club :p

Could you follow my new England story

Your Andorran team would destroy me, still need to get up to the game. Going back to it now
 
The world cup is a sod believe me!
You've got like the best 3 players in the world on your side, I have Jordan Henderson. Anyway, the Mali result is up. Had trouble with screenshots though as they are different sizes from the rest
 
Our friendlies before the world cup all ended up against Africa opposition because everyone else was booked!

All 3 games produced some absolute maulings and we are as ready as we will ever be for the world cup!

We go into this world cup ranked number 1 and the world and that sentiment is probably not far wrong, We would love to avenge our final defeat to Brazil somewhere in this tournament if at all possible.

We are looking to improve on our 3rd and 2nd place finishes from the last world cups.

11-1 are a bit longer than we should be but finally we are being taken seriously!
