Espanyol Barcelona Career 👍👍👍

[AdamFox]

I want to achieve a lot, not just in Spain, but also in European competitions. The board has set me goals for the first season.

Espanyol was founded in 1900. Here you can see the team's greatest successes in history.

I can spend 8 million euros on transfers.

I've created my own tactic, but more on that later.

My squad currently looks like this:

I've made one transfer. Tyrell Malacia has joined the club.

Here are my pre-season friendlies:

Tough match for my team. Sevilla were the better side. Espanyol had a few chances but no goals. Isaac Romero scored twice for them in the first half.

Very demanding opponent. Unfortunately, a loss. Mbappé scored all three from penalties. Honor goal for Espanyol by Ramón Terrats.

My players performed poorly, sadly. Antoniu Roca grabbed a consolation goal.

I had a higher xG, but Cristhian Stuani scored for Girona. Another loss for my team.

Draw. I had a few chances. Roberto Fernández scored for me early on.

Finally, my first win of the season.

High-scoring comfortable victory. My team dominated from the start. We're finally climbing off the bottom of the table.

Solid performance from my team. We created plenty of chances. 2-0 win for Espanyol with goals from Puado and Cabrera.




Currently sitting 12th in the league.

This wasn't an easy match for my players. The key takeaway? Three points thanks to a goal from Roberto Fernández.

In the cup, my team faced a weak opponent. The match ended with a high-scoring win in our favor.

I had massive doubts before kickoff. A game against mighty Barcelona, after all. In the 17th minute, Javi Puado scores. Then the best news: Raphinha gets sent off with a red card. Playing with the extra man, we wrap it up 3-1 for Espanyol. Robert Lewandowski grabs a consolation goal for FC Barcelona in the 89th.

A tough match for my squad. Betis had their chances and looked dangerous. Luckily, goals from Terrats and Lozano sealed the win for us.

The winning streak ends. Atlético beat my team. No time to dwell—just roll up our sleeves and push forward.

A solid win for my team. Two goals from Roberto Fernández, and that's that.


After 13 matches, Espanyol sits sixth in La Liga.

 

[AdamFox]

My players had no issues and comfortably won 5-1.

Plenty of chances for my team, but unfortunately only a draw against Celta Vigo. Oh well, you can't win them all.

High-scoring win for Real Sociedad. My players let me down. Unfortunately, that's football—wins one day, losses the next.

No fluke here. Easy 2-1 victory. My players created far more scoring opportunities. Crucial three points for Espanyol.

Goals galore in this one. Luckily, Espanyol won and advanced to the next round of the Copa del Rey.

Victory was so close. But Ratiu's 90th-minute goal... Draw!

Solid win. My team played exactly as I wanted—tactically disciplined, good chances created, and a confident victory. All good!

 

[AdamFox]

A balanced Copa del Rey match. Javi Puado scores in the 80th minute, and we win 1-0. We advance.

Loss in a tight game. Dull match, few chances, just the one goal.

Led 2-0 but lost 4-2. Strange game, but Real Madrid were far superior to Espanyol.

Sevilla dominated completely. My team was nowhere to be seen. Lucky point salvaged. Players need to step up next matches.

 

[AdamFox]

Eibar set the bar high. It wasn't an easy match for my players. I advance to the Copa del Rey semi-finals only on penalties.

A home defeat. Not a good match for my players.

I lose the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final. I have a real shot at the final, but my players need to step up in the return leg.

A tough match. Girona had plenty of chances. Luckily, my players grabbed 3 points on a difficult pitch.

A good match with lots of chances. Two goals from Kike Garcia and we have a draw.

A match with no story. The loss hurts. Unfortunately.

No Copa del Rey final for us. Rayo draws at our stadium. Two goals from Roberto Fernandez weren't enough for advancement. Time to focus on La Liga.

Espanyol had the edge, Espanyol played better, Espanyol attacked. Just a draw thanks to Roberto Fernandez's goal.

A balanced match ending in a draw.

Finally, a win for Espanyol. Alaves missed a penalty.




The table looks like this now. I still have a chance to qualify for European competitions.

 

[AdamFox]

Losing at home to Betis stings—especially since we edged them slightly in xG. Oh well, it happens.

Who saw this coming? After a string of shaky games, my lads beat Atletico Madrid away. Hats off to Jofre Carreras and Leandro Cabrera for the goals. 3 points in the bag—that's what counts!

Barcelona ran us over. Roberto Fernandez's consolation goal was all we could muster.

We were the better side. Ramon Terrats did a solid job. Victory is ours!

Despite Celta's dominance, my team pulled off the win. Keep it up!

Unlucky defeat after a last-minute goal.

Comfortable win. My players put in a great shift.

Convincing victory. Jofre Carreras was outstanding—Espanyol showed what they're made of.

Crucial table-climbing match. 3 points to Mallorca.

Big thanks to my players for that brilliant performance. No fluke—my boys earned that solid win.



End of the 2025/26 season. Sixth place is a strong finish. I'm pleased with my players' efforts. Time for the summer transfer window.

 

[AdamFox]

Preparations for the new season are underway. I played 6 friendlies – 4 wins and 2 losses.

Time to kick off the season. A solid away win over Burgos. My team dominated completely – they didn't stand a chance.

A gritty win against the Betis Sevilla side. Roberto Fernandez scored in the 10th minute, and three points are in the bag, but my players need to step up in the coming matches.

What a wild match. I blew it – dropped points after leading 2-0.




Espanyol's finances look like this now:

Meanwhile, let's check the transfers. Key player Javi Puado left for a big fee. I brought in Antonino Gallo for left-back, Fran Garcia who's playing as my left Inside Forward. Renato Sanches and Joe Willock arrived too. On free transfers, I signed Conor Chaplin and goalkeeper Christian Walton.

A tough test for my heroes.

Real demolished us, and at our home stadium no less. These things happen.

First Europa League win. Very satisfied.

Crucial victory. The battle for the best possible La Liga position continues.

 

[AdamFox]

Three points in the Europa League again. This time, Austrian Sturm acknowledged our superiority. Narrow victory.

The visitors swept us off the pitch. We drop points.

We led 2-0, only to lose 3-2. This defeat stings.

We grab three points. High xG for Espanyol (2.39). Elche managed just 0.39 xG.

Both teams had chances; either could have won. Ended in a draw.

I decided I needed to work on my tactics.

I overhauled the tactics big-time before Mlada Boleslav, but only a draw.

Poor showing from my players. Striker Roberto Fernandez let us down.

No surprises. Solid Copa del Rey win for my team.

Barcelona dominated, as expected. Nice goal from Robert Lewandowski.

Tough match for my lads. Lazio were the better side and take 3 points.

Poor game for us. Time for more tactical changes.

New tactics. Good game for both sides. Plenty of chances.

My team had massive dominance. Draw, but I'm happy with how the boys executed the plan.

Huge disappointment. Just a draw. Conceded in the 89th (De la Fuente).

Solid Copa del Rey win. Moderately satisfied.

Well done, lads! That's how you play. Hard-fought victory.

Great game from Terrats. My team put in a really strong performance. Keep it up!

What bad luck. Conceded two late goals. It happens!

Osasuna finished us off quickly. Roberto Fernandez's consolation goal wasn't enough.

What a wild match. Goals, a red card for my player. Out of the Copa del Rey on pens.

Narrow victory...

We played averagely. Betis snatches 3 points with Lo Celso's 91st-minute goal.

Played a partly reserve side and got totally demolished.

Good Espanyol performance, good from Roberto Fernandez. Overall satisfied.

My players crushed them into the turf. No fluke—we had to win.

Good game from both sides. Points shared.




In the winter window, I signed two top wingers: Noa Lang and Boga. Sold Malacia. Happy with these deals.

Draw. We could have done more.

What a crazy match. Goals galore in Europa League Playoffs.

 

[AdamFox]

No fluke here. Real's players didn't give us a chance at even a point. Total demolition. Goal by Noa Lang.

Beat the Scots but out. Now I can focus on La Liga.

Not happy with my players' performance. The loss stings.

The poor run continues.

Another defeat.

Injuries, tired players, no quality subs. Not good.

Season written off.

Heavy loss. Omar Sadik saves some pride.

Defeat to the big Barcelona. Jeremie Boga gets us one goal.

Finally a win—and a big one.

Good match for Espanyol. We grab a point.

Unfair draw—xG was heavily in Espanyol's favor. It happens.

Solid, hard-earned win over Sociedad. That feels good.

Exposito misses a late penalty. The loss hurts bad.

Nerves right to the end.

Poor showing from Espanyol.




The board is currently very unhappy with my work.

 

[AdamFox]

I've signed some really good players (Min-Jae – a fantastic center-back). I also sold a few players. I'm happy with my squad situation.




Friendlies:

Meanwhile, things are going really well for me in La Liga.

 

[AdamFox]

I finished 3rd in La Liga and lost my save file due to my own stupidity. I'll start a new career.
