FM17 Brexit Challenge

New format works for me mate, to be honest I skimmed over the match reports to see the monthly summary anyway.

Tough season so far but I reckon you can pull it off.

Also - definitely a nice goal, that

Second half of the season we have been fantastic. Just the one blip against Wolfsburg where we lost, and it was a harsh result too.

View attachment 91456
That form was enough to win us (white) the league. Wolfsburg (green) must be feeling like the Tories after this election, how did they throw away such a big lead. It’s made it more exciting but I wouldn’t want it to go like this every season. I much prefer having things wrapped up early on. Elsewhere Bayern (blue) have done well to recover from an awful start and finish 3rd​.

View attachment 91455
Here’s the final table, we actually won the league by 6 points in the end amazingly. Wolfsburg really stuttering at the end there.

German Cup
​

View attachment 91454
We eased through to the final in the German Cup where we will face BMG, who squeaked past Wolfsburg.

View attachment 91453
Terrible game this. We were very wasteful in front of goal. Our cause was severely hampered by Marcelo getting himself sent off. Despite that we stayed in the game and created chances. The game went to extra time, and in the second half of that, in the 118th​ minute Reisinger gave away a penalty which they converted.

Champions League
​

View attachment 91452
We go one better than the previous two years, making it to the final. Beating some good sides along the way.

View attachment 91451
A good result away against Atletico to get us into the semis. We were unlucky in that away leg to Chelsea. For the home leg we went out 433 as we had nothing left to lose. It went to extra time but we came out winners in the end. Putting us in the final against PSG, a team I have struggled with, and full of ex-players of mine.

View attachment 91450
I was forced into the 433 for this game almost. No one was left to play on the left with Pla, Grassi, Ersoy and Kuqi out injured. Miranda and Daalmeijer were forced into playing up front as strikers. We got a reasonably early goal and went into half time with the lead. I decided to drop back a bit half time going to a makeshift 451. This allowed them back into the game but they had a man sent off which helped us to go on and win the game, and the competition.

Squad Stats

Here's the squad stats for the full season. Best players and awards will be in an end of season post.
 
45 goals from a 20-year-old... very nice! Would love to see a screenshot of Rettig, he seems like a class act. Home-grown, yes?

Also - Dedic and Grassi must have some pretty epic overall career stats for your club now. Seems like they've been absolute Dortmund legends.
 
Thanks neavie pops, it's ended up being a **** of a season, really close to a clean sweep of trophies. Crazy as it started off so bad.

My assistant thinks he wont develop any more, just have to wait and see. Got good stats where he needs them for a complete forward, not the best striker in the world by any means but he plays well for us. He’s from 30 mins down the road from Dortmund, came through the youth system, proper local lad. Just seen on his info screen while I was getting this screen shot that his long term plan is to captain the club so looks like he plans to stick around.

View attachment 91344
Here's Grassi’s overall league vitals. He is a legend at the club. I brought him in as a stop-gap/competition for Baumer but he’s played so well since he’s been here it’s been unreal. Somehow he hasn’t made it even on the subs of the Dortmund all time best 11 (despite being a legend at the club), but his stats in all competitions are 162 games, 71 goals, 77 assists, and a 7.57 average rating.

View attachment 91343
Dedic on the other hand somehow is not regarded as a legend (yet surely), but is in the all-time best 11. For the first team he’s made 236 appearances, scoring 73 goals, making 100 assists, getting an average rating of 7.46. Another local lad who’s come through the youth system Dedic is again from just a half hour down the road.

Nice press item in the inbox. Not quite at legendary status just yet but only one other Dortmund manager can boast a champions league win.

View attachment 91341View attachment 91340
**** of a breakthrough season at Dortmund for Rettig. Only a goal away from league goalscoring record as well as the overall goalscoring record.

View attachment 91339
He was rewarded for his exploits with both the German Footballer of the Year and Player’s Player of the Year awards. With Gouveris coming runner up in the former.

View attachment 91338
He also managed to pip Filippazzo to the top goalscorer award too with a flurry of goals towards the end of the season.

View attachment 91337
This year I did win manager of the year and player’s manager of the year, after a somewhat inexplicable year off last year.

View attachment 91336
No quite the usual Dortmund dominance in the team of the year. Corominas made it only into the player’s team of the year.

View attachment 91335
This year 3 of our players, Marcelo, Medina and Corominas make it into the Champions league dream team. I can’t recall any of our players managing this before.

View attachment 91334
Some good high numbers here, plenty in the mid 7s but none pushing for the 8s. Not bad after a poor start.

View attachment 91333
Daalmeijer wins player of the season after a great debut campaign, also thanks to a bit of an off season from Dedic. Rettig wins goal of the season, ‘keeper Venancio, who has been brilliant, just what we needed, gets signing of the season. Daalmeijer also wins player of the season.

View attachment 91332
Just the 45 goals for Retting. That’s a new Dortmund record in his first season. He also won 12 man of the match awards, again, a new Dortmund record. Daalmijer finishes the season with an impressive average rating of 7.69. Dedic provided the most assists with 16. Herrera, as usual has finishes the season with the highest pass completion. And in the naughty corner are Corominas and the other Rettig with 14 yellow cards and 2 red cards respectively.

View attachment 91331
Finally, Rettig won the European Golden Shoe for his exploits in front of goal. Let's hope he hasn't peaked in his first season.

View attachment 91260
With our champions league win we move up in the club coefficient rankings for Europe up to first. Surely that makes us the de facto best team in the world?

View attachment 91259
Had my eye on this guy since I was at Wolfsburg, I missed out on him as he went to Barcelona. He was available for a bargain price of E26m (potentially rising to E36m). His wages are high but I think he’s worth it. [Message from the future: he’s totally worth it, he’s Effen amazing].

View attachment 91258
I lost the run of myself a bit with this transfer. I spent way too much but I’ve been after this kid for 3 seasons now, and I had no one else to spend the money on really. He comes in for E81m possibly rising to E104m.

View attachment 91257
I would have like to keep von Ahlen, he’s been a good servant of the club in my time here but he wanted a new challenge. We got a quite tidy E31m (potentially rising to E45m) for him so I’m pretty happy with that.

View attachment 91256
Serkan Erdem has been kicking around the seconds for a while now waiting for an opportunity which has now arrived with von Ahlen leaving. I think he is a more than adequate replacement without having to spend a cent.

I've reached a point where things are quite quiet on the transfer front. I'm happy with the squad, it's just a matter of replacing players that do leave and can't be replaced from within and picking up and top youth prospects or potential bargains we find.
 
Top work

Mate just read through the whole thing and it's ****** impressive. Just wanted to know what your plans for the long term are, seeing as you've got an EU nationality have you set any other goals? Maybe going to a Madrid or Barcelona?
Also could you do a quick tactics screenshot just in terms of shape etc. ?
Cheers and again keep up the good work!

Click to expand...

Alright mate, the tactics I've been using for most of the time I've been at Dortmund and Wolfsburg are super basic, and look like this.

View attachment 91223
View attachment 91222
The tactical side of the game has never been what I am good at. Historically I have just downloaded a tactic and used that. It doesn't work the way it used to on the newer games by design so this is the first game I've gone it on my own so to speak. What I have found is first an formost wingers are beast. Work it wide cross it in has been the name of the game for me and worked well for me. I tweak things like tempo, be more expressive, time wasting depending on the situation in the match. Also I the attacking midfield position is consistently largely ineffectual to the point where I always sacrifice that position when a man down and it rarely makes much difference.

In terms of goals, I have some laid out.
  • I want to be Dortmund's best ever manager. I might arguable have done this already but I want there to be no question.
  • I want to be the most successful manager in Germany. I'm currently 6th, screenshot below.
  • I want Dortmund to win the most consecutive league titles. Bayern have the record with 10 in a row, we're currently on 4. (I originally wanted to make Dortmund the most successful club in Bundesliga history but Bayern are too far ahead for me to be arsed).
  • Beyond that I want to break into the top 10 most successful managers of all time worldwide, potentially going top. I'm currently not even in the top 20, and Pep and Emery had ridiculous careers at City and PSG (worryingly Pep is still going), screenshot below. Top 10 is very doable, doing the above should have me close.
I will leave Dortmund, in 6 seasons as it stands, less if I miss out on a title. I have given myself a rule I don't want to go to a club that has already won the league more times than any other. So that rules out Man. Utd. Real Madrid, PSG and Juventus. Clubs I am keeping an eye on are Barcelona, Man. City, Arsenal and Liverpool. I would consider Chelsea, Porto, Zenit, Spartak and PSV. Chelsea are a little too far behind Utd., the others are in leagues not quite in the top tier making it harder to move up the hall of fame. I would always consider the Swansea and Wales jobs, if I was to take the former I would have to reassess my goals. I was almost tempted to leave Dortmund this summer as Emery retired and kicked off the mother of all manager merry-go-rounds, with the Barcelona, Juventus INTER jobs available to name but a few.

View attachment 91218
Honestly, it’s been really smooth sailing so far. Probably the best we’ve looked in my time here. The BMG game was a blip, was fairly even we just failed to score. The Schalke game we HAMMERED them, but were wayward with our shooting.

View attachment 91217
We’ve been comfortably top all season, but find ourselves in second having played 3 less games than Bayern due to the Club World Championships, more on that later.

View attachment 91216
Here’s the history graph, we went top early, only giving up pole position due to playing fewer games. We’ll have it back in no time.

Cup
​

View attachment 91215
Just the 2 games in the cup so far, not sure why. Perhaps related to the CWC again. Two comfortable wins, we got into double figures again in the first round with not even a full-strength side on the pitch.

View attachment 91214
In the 3rd​ round we’ll face Stuttgart, but after the winter break.

Champions League
​

View attachment 91213
Pretty much the same story in the Champions League as in the Bundesliga. We were handed a pretty easy group, and have made quite easy work of it.

View attachment 91212
We sit comfortably top, without a single loss in the group stage.

View attachment 91211
And this time we actually do get an easier tie for coming top of the group. We’ll face Shakhtar in the first knock out round. No disrespect to them but I would be very disappointed if we didn’t make it through to the quarter finals.

Club World Championships
​

View attachment 91210
Now on to the big one, at least for me anyway since I learned that you get more hall of fame points for winning the club world cup than you do for winning the champions league. We come in at the semi-final stage and face Club America, by no means a bad side. We beat them comfortably however and made it through to the final. As I would expect.

View attachment 91209
In the final we faced Al-Ahli, have to say I was expecting Sao Paulo. This was even easier than Club America and we win the cup, and more importantly, some nice easy hall of fame points.

View attachment 91208
And in winning that trophy I move from favoured personnel to icon. I hope to make it to legend before I leave the club.

World team of the year comes through and Grassi and Effenberg are in the first team with Rettig on the bench. Two more of my players in Tom Schofield and Javier Cantu are in the first team.

View attachment 91140
For a second consecutive season Rettig is named as European Golden Boy as his promising career picks up pace.

All quiet on the transfer front, which is good. I've managed to fend off interest in my best players again. I suppose it helps being one of the best and richest teams in the world.

Bundesliga
​

View attachment 91139
Reasonably plane sailing again in the second half of the season we did hit something of an iceberg in the two games away at our two closest rivals. Venâncio, who has been out of this world since signing, had an absolute nightmare game against Wolfsburg. I dropped him for the Bayern game and his replacement didn’t do much better.

View attachment 91138
That makes it 5 in a row now, 5 more to go. We didn’t break any records thanks to that disappointing draw against Dusseldorf, who were relegated.

View attachment 91137
It’s never really been in doubt from about 5 games in. Bayern (blue) had a terrible start and Wolfsburg (green) have been consistently average under new manager Mauricio Pochettino (their last manager, my replacement, was appointed Germany manager).

German Cup
​

View attachment 91136
My frustrations in the cup continue, we put out a strong team, pretty much full strength but we somehow lost this, seeing us knocked out in the 3rd​ round, which “won” us the tag of biggest under achievers.

Champions League
​

View attachment 91135
We fail to defend our title (few do) and we have to settle for being semi-finalists this year after a disappointing capitulation against Man. City.

View attachment 91134
When City got their away goal in the 82 minute I worried. The same player then got their first in 7th​ minute in the away leg. Then I was really worried. The second came 18 minutes later and we were behind in the tie. We went for it as much as possible but couldn’t get through. They got a late goal then to seal it for them.

There isn’t much between this guy and our other backup right back but the other guy has been fluctuating in the coach report between 2 star no potential to 2.5 star 3.5 potential. This guy has that in the scout and coach report and comes in for E33.5m from Wolfsburg. The other guy has gone on loan to Wolfsburg, not as part of the deal but obviously to replace him.

Good first half of the year. I do almost for get that it is a journey man save. Have you turned down many approaches for your services?
 
It's been really weird neavie pops, whilst in a job I've only been approached twice, the first time was Randers the second time was Dortmund. I've had a ton of interviews when I was unemployed but whilst in a job I had an interview for FC Midtjylland I think it was when I was at HIF, which I obviously didn't get. At Randers I had interviews for Swasnsea and Kobenhavn both I didn't get because I was only willing to go at the end of the season. Nothing at Wolfsburg and Nothing at Dortmund. I was linked in the press and the press favourite for the Liverpool job going into this winter break but that is literally the first sniff. It's meant the save really hasn't gone as I expected. The only save I had done prior to this one was a disaster so I expected to *** around Europe for ages, but it's been amazingly successful for how poor I am at the game, and despite that I've never really been head-hunted. I will say I am starting to get very itchy feet here at Dortmund and if anyone comes in for me I could well leave.

It's been a surprisingly busy January transfer window which is why the winter break gets its own post. I all basically stems from me losing my rag after the PSV game.

View attachment 90513
Rettig keeps hold of the European golden boy award. He may as well keep it permanently at this point. Elsewhere Pla wins French player of the year again, as does Medina win North American player of the year, again.

View attachment 90512
Carbaugh comes in as an exciting prospect at left wing. He was actually pretty good value at E22.5m from Freiburg, too good not to go for really.

View attachment 90511
Schutte is the first of two players I went out and bought after the loss to PSV in a rage. Ersoy has been pretty poor, is 32 and moaning about first team football so I decided to replace him. Schutte is very much like Rettig, not quite as good but should be good backup/competition. A pretty big transfer at E55m from Wolfsburg but hopefully he will be here for many years.

View attachment 90510
Dorner is the second rage buy. I felt we were a little weak in midfield, ball winning midfield in particular. He comes in for E55m again this time from Bayern. Both these players I have probably over payed for but it’s really hard to pry away good German prospects, Carbaugh being an excepting, making him such good value.

In order to bring in these trasfers I had to raise a bit of money through player sales.

View attachment 90509
It wasn’t really my intention to sell Grassi but he came and said he felt he had achieved all he could. He is a club legend but I thought he could leave now on a high and I could get a bit of cash to bring in younger prospects. He went to Wolfsburg for E20m. I really didn’t want to sell him to a rival but this caused a massive argument and he got his way. This one almost balances out with the Carbaugh transfer.

View attachment 90508
With Dorner coming in I decided to cash in on Serkan Erdem and got E20m from West Brom. He wasn’t going to get any better so I thought why not cash in on him.

Another season of disappointment in Europe as we only made it to the Quarter finals, where we were knocked out by Real Madrid.

The second leg against Man City was probably the best game I saw my side play in my time as Dortmund manager. City didn’t get a sniff, and could barely get out of their half, not getting a shot on target. We couldn’t match those heights against Real as we really, really missed Rettig up front.

Winning the double this season makes me the most successful manager to manage in Germany. Another goal to cross off my checklist.

Despite a very successful season I have not been able to secure a new contract. I want a pay rise to E50k pw, which I think is more than fair given what I have achieved with this club. The club wont budge asking me to take a E10k pw pay cut. That may be my fault a little due to poor finances, which I am working on. Some good jobs should be coming up at the end of the season, I’ve been strongly linked with Chelsea and Arsenal, Barcelona might come up too (which would be my preference). We will have to wait and see if I stay or leave. When the Bundesliga prize money comes in the finances will be fine, perhaps the club will make me a reasonable offer then.
