I am going to be attempting W4NKER's Euro Trek Challenge. For all of those who haven't heard about this challenge it is where you start unemployed in whichever country you want, Georgia for me, then as soon as you win the league you move to the next bordering country and win that league and the so on and so on.

I have started unemployed and have loaded the georgian, azerbaijani, armenian and turkish leagues. I have been looking for jobs and Samtredia accepted my job offer.

Samtredia is a club in the Second Division of Georgia or Pirveli Liga. I am expected to win the league in my first season.

This is a basic profile of Samtredia.

Transfers
View attachment 357568

Kilasonia is a back-up right back I snapped up as one of the glaring issues in this team was no cover at full-back.
View attachment 357567
Tkebuchava will be my starting DM/CM. 3 and a half star current ability.

Tactics
View attachment 357566
My formation is a 4-4-2 with attacking mids. Memarnishvili is easily my best player with 4 and a half star current ability and 5 star potential.

I will be giving updates every 6 or 7 league games.

I will be following. Always wanted to try this, but as there are so many leagues I thought it would take a lot of time. So I'm doing it in South America at the moment where there are only 10 natios (Excluding Surinam and the Guyanas) Already done Argentina, Paraguay, Bolivia, Chile and Perú. Struggling in Ecuador at the moment.

Best of luck mate!

I was thinking of doing it for the whole world but it would take a lot of time. Good job by winning all those leagues. Thanks for following.

Transfers
Before I get into my league position I would like to show two massive signings I have completed.
View attachment 357218
Branko Lazarevic is a 4 star CB i picked up on a free. Before him I was playing with either a 2 and a half star CB or an error-prone 19 year old so I really needed Lazarevic.
View attachment 357216
Viktor Petakov has added depth in attacking positions he can play in CAM and RW. He has played brilliantly so far and now Ilia Pavliashvili (my other RW who has played very well so far) cannot get close to the starting 11.

League
I sit in 1st after 14 matches so more than half of the season played. Dinamo Batumi (who beat me 4-0 earlier) sit 1 point behind me with Chiatura and Machakhela hot on my tail too. It is very congested at the top and every point matters.

Also my team always gives up goals towards the ends of matches. Any idea how to fix that? Thanks

Bagashvili is my first choice striker and he now scores in almost every game. He has 15 goals in 26 appearances in all competitions and 12 goals in 20 appearances in the league. He also has 5 man of the match awards. I posted a picture of his profile in the last post.

A close second is Viktor Petakov, the new RW, who has 6 assists and 1 goal in 9 appearances in the league and in all competitions he has 5 goals and 6 assists in 12 games.

Georgian Cup
We lost the Georgian Cup 2-0 to Dinamo Tblisi. I had played the final and it went to penalties but there was an error and I had to restart the game and when I replayed the final we lost 2-0 to 2 late goals.

Season Review
Pirveli Liga: 1st
Georgian Cup: Runners-Up

Best Player
Avtandil Bagashvili
He was the Pirveli Liga top scorer with 15 goals in 23 appearances. He also had 7 assists.

Time to get ready for the next season in the Umaglesi Liga!

Transfers
I knew that after promotion we would need some very good signings and I believe I have found them.
View attachment 356355

View attachment 356353
Ivan Todorov will add some much-needed quality to this back line and will play alongside either Kikabidze or Lazarevic.

View attachment 356352
Ivo Raykov is another addition to our back-line and he will give competition to Kakushadze. Now that Raykov has arrived I will try to sell Kilasonia.

View attachment 356351
Branko Lazarevic came to me and said he wasn't feeling comfortable in Georgia and I didn't want to lose a player of his quality so I knew I had to bring a Serbian player into the team so I got Igor Jelic on loan. He will give competition to Eristavi and Gureshidze at CM.

View attachment 356350
Just in case Bagashvili couldn't find his scoring boots in the top-flight I bought Jerry Sitoe to step in and annihilate. He looks like a very good striker and although he got severely injured in his first week at the club I am very pleased.

I also released players that were not in my plans this season and let a youngster out on loan.

In the Umaglesi Liga you play 22 games so I will be giving updates every 6 games.

Samtredia 2-0 Sioni
Scorers: Pavliashvili, Memarnishvili

After a slow start to the season we finally have picked up form and haven't lost in 3 games.

My Player of the Season so far: Igor Jelic
The CM who was originally brought for cover has been a key part of my starting 11. He hasn't been great but he has been better than all my other players. He has 2 assists in the league and 4 assists in the cup

Current Position: 7th
Points: 8
Points ahead of Relegation: 5

Halfway into the season and just 2 points off the relegation zone. Form has definitely dropped with injuries to key players such as Ivan Todorov, Giorgi Gureshidze, Igor Jelic and Viktor Petakov

Samtredia 0-3 Metalurgi Rustavi
Scorers: None
We played fantastic in the first half but then totally collapsed in the second.

Samtredia 2-3 Dila Gori
Scorers: Todorov, Lazarevic
Two goals off corners meant we almost beat one of the best teams in the league.

Samtredia 1-3 Zestafoni (cup)
Scorers: Bagashvili

Samtredia 1-0 Kolkheti Poti
Scorers: Tkebuchava
Tkebuchava grabs his first goal for the club as we take all 3 points from a must win game against the other promoted side.

Samtredia 0-1 Spartaki Tskhinvali
Scorers: None
A bit of a let down as I was hoping to draw or even win this game.

Samtredia 0-1 Chikhura Sachkhere
Scorers:
We can't get any points from any of the top teams and it is a bit frustrating.

Samtredia 4-2 Zugdidi
Scorers: Petakov, Bagashvili (2), Kakushadze
Another must win game that we take maximum points from. After this game Zugdidi sacked their manager.

My Player of the Season so far: Ilia Pavliashvili
View attachment 355726

My starting LW this season, taking over from Giorgi Memarnishvili, has delivered 6 assists and 1 goal this season with a 6.9 average rating.

Position: 8th

Cesar Meza Colli is Memarnishvili's replacement. Memarnishvili has been on a steep decline and has lost all his pace that made him a great player.

League
View attachment 354790

Samtredia 2-2 Zestafoni
Scorers: Kakushadze, Sitoe
I thought Sitoe had the quality to rip this league to shreds but it has been the complete opposite. He has scored only twice and missed many clear cut chances. We finally got a result against one of the better teams in the league.

Samtredia 1-4 Dinamo Tblisi
Scorers: Turmanidze
We came back down to earth with a massacre by Dinamo Tblisi.

Samtredia 2-1 Guria
Scorers: Pavliashvili (2)
Pavliashvili had a great game but then got injured.

Samtredia 1-2 Torpedo Kutaisi
Scorers: Cesar Meza Colli
Our new signing gets his first goal for the club in a disappointing loss.

Samtredia 1-2 Metalurgi Rustavi
Scorers: Bagashvili
Another must win game goes down the drain.

Samtredia 0-2 Sioni
Scorers: None
This month we lost 3 key games in a row to have us stare relegation in the face.

Very disappointing as we could have been in 6th at the end of all this and not have relegation as a problem. The games against Spartaki and Kolkheti Poti are now more important then ever.

Position: 10th
Points: 18
Points off Relegation: 2

Season Finished
We have ended the season in 8th place and a 12.83K bonus awarded to us.

View attachment 354783

Samtredia 0-2 Dila Gori
Scorers: None

Samtredia 1-1 Spartaki Tskhinvali
Scorers: Sitoe
Super sub Sitoe nicked us a point

Samtredia 2-1 Kolkheti Poti
Scorers: Todorov, Sitoe
We won the most important game of the season.

Smtredia 1-1 Chikhura
Scorers: Bagashvili
A point in this game ensured our survival in the top flight.

My player of the Season
Ilia Pavliashvili
In 19 games he had 3 goals and 7 assists and was our main creative force.

We have brought in a couple of new faces and released some players that were just not good enough.

In
View attachment 353754
I felt we needed a new CDM as we were leaking way too many goals and now against top teams I can play a formation with 2 defensive mids.

View attachment 353753
I originally brought him in on loan last season and was impressed by his performances than his former club, Zestafoni, released him and I picked him up on a free.

View attachment 353755
I released my back-up goalie Nika Bandzava as he was not good enough for the club and bought this player. He is still young so if he is not giving me good displays he can improve very fast.

Out
First I released Giorgi Kilasonia because he was not not good enough and if i kept him we would have 3 right backs.

Second was a center back who had been sitting in the reserves and when Skuri came with an offer I decided to take advantage and made 6K off him.

Then I released Nika Bandzava who I talked about earlier.

4th I released Giorgi Memarnishvili who was about to turn 34 and was declining fast.
