Hey guys!

This is my first story ever and I hope I'll have your support. I'm going to lead a club from the 5th tier in Germany to the Bundesliga or even European Cup winners!

I'm going to do these by using tactics I've made.

First, I want to know who is interested in a save like this?

Greetings
 
These are my favourite stories I always start at the bottom and try to reach the top so good luck I'll watch with interest.
 
MANAGER INTRODUCTION

First I want to introduce you to the manager.

His name? Heiko Torn. Heiko is born and razed in Frankfurt. Frankfurt is the 5th city in Germany and is situated in the south of Germany. He doesn't support Frankfurt, the biggest team in the city, but he doesn't hate the club either. There is only one team in the world Heiko really doesn't like... What team do you think Heiko doesn't like?
Well, it's the biggest and most successful club of Germany,... BAYERN MUNICH

His dream is to get his club to the Bundesliga and compete with Bayern Munich in the competition but also in the European Competitions.

Next update: CLUB INTRODUCTION
 
CLUB INTRODUCTION

2 years ago (I'm now at the start of 2015-2016), on the 25 of june 2013, one day before Heiko's 26th birthday, Bayern Alzenau appointed Heiko Torn as the new manager of Bayern Alzenau.

Bayern Alzenau is a club in the Hessenliga. The Hessenliga is one of the 14 competitions from the Oberliga, the 5th tier in Germany.

Bayern Alzenau has only won 1 competition in its history since 1920, the year Bayern Alzenau was founded. In 2011 Bayern Alzenau has won the Hessenliga, now its Heiko's responsibility to win it again, because that's the only way to get to the Regionalliga, the 4th tier of Germany.

The Hessenliga is a weird competition. To gain promotion, you must win the league and after winning the league you must win against another Oberliga league-winner...very tough!

SEASON EXPECTATION AND PRE-SEASON

The prediction is that I will be 5th. But the media thinks I'll be 18th... Never trust the media, 5th place is very realistic, but I'm hoping for more...

Their are probably 3 teams who will battle for the title:
  1. FC Eschborn: The club has just relegated from the Regionalliga and most of their best players stayed. Surely number one candidate to win the league.
  2. SV Wiesbaden: A small club, but they have the best selection from the league.
  3. FSV Frankfurt II: The second team of the second biggest club in Frankfurt: FSV Frankfurt. In this team play the youngsters and the first team players who were injured and recovering. I think this team will be the hardest one to beat.

Pres-season games:
View attachment 439491

All 5 games were played in the stadium of Alzenau: 5113 people can enter the stadium, with only 933 seaters.

First game was against Winterthur, a team from the second division of Switzerland. I deserved more, but when I was losing 2-1 at half time, I changed the whole squad. And their was one player, Boubacar Traore, who managed to get a red card in the first 10 minutes he played under my management. So down with 10 men, and my best players substituted...

Second game against SVW Mannheim was better. We drew 1-1 against a team from the Regionalliga, so not bad I think.

Third game was another difficult game. It was against Reid, the 5th team of Austria. We were 2-0 up at half time, I saw a very very good performance from my team in the first half! Again, (in every pre-season game) I changed the whole squad during half time. They managed to score 2 goals in 3 minutes and a late goal. I was a bit disappointed but I could be very proud, 2-3 is a good result.

The 4th game was an easy game. FCA Darmstadt was just relegated from the Oberliga (they played in the Hessenliga). 3-0 up at half time and 10 minutus before half time it was 7-0. The last 10 minutes my defence was weak and they scored twice.

The 5th game was against a team who plays in another league from the Oberliga and their prediction is the 5th place. This was a game against an equal team and we managed to grab a 3-2 win. Not deserved but 2 minutes before the end we scored the winning goal, so a bit of luck.

I was pretty happy of the pre-season. I hoped that we could take that form to the league!

Nest update: END OF SEASON! (2013-2014)

END OF SEASON!

In the first games I saw that my defence was weak and my attack was inconsistent. So I asked some advice on the forum. Here you can read the issues I've had: http://www.fm-base.co.uk/forum/foot.../151460-tactical-help-needed-bayern-save.html (this is interesting if you want to see my tactic).

But at the end of december I was happy what my team has done in 2013: 4 losses, 3 draws and 14 wins, not bad.

The Hessenliga-games in 2013: T= Home game U= Away game (I'm from Belgium so my FM 14 is in dutch)
View attachment 439447

At the beginning of the new year I knew that the battle for the title was between SV Wiesbaden, Eschborn and me, because FSV Frankfurt II was too inconsistent.

At the start of 2014 SV Wiesbaden's results were very inconsistent and Eschborn took the first spot of the league. Until I managed to win against them, a very deserved 2-1 home-victory. Could I hold that first place an win the league?

Well here are the results in 2014:
View attachment 439446

After the loss against Stadtallendorf (the first game I won 7-3, so very disappointed) I saw Eschborn coming back. I was now second in the league 1 point behind Eschborn, but they had 1 game more, and I had 3 points more than SV Wiesbaden.

After the draw against SV Wiesbaden I had 4 points more than SV Wiesbaden and 6 points more than Eschborn. So with 1 game before the end of the season I was sure that I would win the Hessenliga! My first trophy!

The last game I played in the Hessenliga was with a B-team, but I was still disappointed, because it was the last home-game and we should have won that game...

This is the league table at the end of the season:
View attachment 439436

Know, the most important game of the season: the Promotion Playoff against Oberneuland.
Oberneuland away, a very very tough game it would be...

After 90 minutes it was 0-0, thanks to my central defenders and left back.

And after 120 minutes it was still 0-0, so penalties would decide who promotes...

The penalties:

I began.
Bayern Alzenau: First penalty.......SCORED.
Oberneuland: First penalty...........SCORED.
BA: Second penalty.....................SCORED.
O: Second penalty......................MISSED a top save from my keeper.
BA: Third penalty.......................SCORED, it's know 3-1.
O: Third penalty.........................SCORED.
BA: 4th penalty..........................SCORED, if they miss I promote!
O: 4th penalty...........................SCORED, know their's a lot of pressure on my last shooter...
BA: 5th penalty.........................SCORED and Bayern Alzenau promotes!!!

At the start of the season I would be happy with a top 5 finish, I hoped I would be in the top 3, but that I would win the league and promote was only a dream, 'till now!

SEASON EXPECTATIONS + SQUAD OVERHAUL + PRE-SEASON

Hello guys and welcome to the start of my second season with Bayern Alzenau.

The expectation was that I would be 18th (last) and relegate. Of course I didn't want to relegate so my aim was to be out of the relagation zone (only the 18th relegates) and have better finances, because we were in red...

The 3 teams that would battle to win the title:

  1. TSV Alemannia Aachen a team which played in the Bundesliga in 2006-2007! After the relegation to the 2. Bundesliga they had bad finances, until they relegated to the Regionalliga. Know their finances are better and they have the best squad to win the league in my opinion.
  2. FC Victoria Koln 1904 is one of the three teams in the Regionalliga based in Koln. They have a good squad and great ambitions.
  3. SC Fortuna Koln is another team from Koln. They have also great ambitions, because they have played in the 2. Bundesliga 15 years ago.
The third team from Koln I was talnking about is FC Koln II, the youth team of FC Koln. This is not the only second team in the league: FC Schalke 04 II, Bayer Leverkusen U21, Borussia Monchengladbach II, Fortuna Dusseldorf II and VfL Bochum II are the other second teams in the league. My expectation was that one of these second teams would relegate and that Schalke 04 II and Bayer Leverkusen U21 would battle for promotion with the three teams above.


Know the squad overhaul. I had some really good, but also some really bad players last season. The bad players could leave the club and of course I want the better players to stay. Zubayr Amiri, an Afghan internetional, was the player of te season 2013-2014, but he didn't want to renew his contract...
The other players their wage demand was too high for my club, only 4 players received a new contract.
My goalkeeper Ricardo Dobert, central defender Daniel Muller, my right back and new captain Markus Wosiek and my striker Alessandro Frob. Alessandro was the second striker last year, but he will be my first striker this year.

I signed a lot 22 new players and I had know every place covered twice. I was know ready for the new season!

Pre-season games:
View attachment 439305

Pres-season is very short in Germany so I played only 4 matches.

First game against FC Schalke 04 II, a league concurrent, was a deserved 4-2 victory. I tought it would be 1-0 at half time, but they scored twice before the wistle. In the second half I dominated, with two late goals I managed to grab a 4-2 win.

Second game would be very tough against Chomutov, a team in the first league of the Czech Republic. It was a very convincing and easy victory. Their goal was in the 90th minute so they were never a thread.

Third game was against another league concurrent, Bayer Leverkusen U21. They were very good and they deserved the win. But I was a bit disappointed because we were leading 2-1 at half time and their winning goal was an own goal in the 90+2' minute from my goalkeeper...

The fourth game was a very easy game. I was happy with the clean sheet, but we should have scored more then twice...

I was very happy with the pre-season games and I hoped I would do goodin the league...

First eleven games: 2 wins, 8 draws and only 1 loss

And this is the table after the first 11 games:

Next update: CUP MATCH + END OF SEASON!
 
CUP MATCH + END OF SEASON!

Since I played in the Regionalliga, I can compete in the DFB Pokal, the German Cup.
I was very nervous for the draw, but at the end very happy with it.

The cupmatch was a home game against Eintracht Frankfurt! They managed to finish 4th so they are in the Champions League.

The stadium was full, 5113 people watched the game and that was a new record! We received 110K for the income!
But that was not the only good thing... The match was on TV and we gained 600K for that!

Now the finances are better the club invested in the youth: the youth level and youth complex were razed!

Now the match... I played very defensive, but their attack was too strong so they scored several times, but I was pleased with the performance of my players.

View attachment 439270 It was a loss and a big one, but not as big as I expected! And I was very happy that w could score against such a strong team!

At the end of the season Eintracht Frankfurt relegates to the 2. Bundesliga. Next season the Frankfurt-derby is back!

I can tell you that we had a very good season. We were not relegated!
Maybe we had a top-half finish... Or even better... Maybe we won the league...

Here you see the rest of the results:
View attachment 439269 The lost three games were very disappointing...But I'm very happy with the results!

Here the table at the end of the season:

View attachment 439268

We had a very good season and we finished 8th! Our defence was the 5th of the league, but our attack must be better...

I think I must be very happy with the season and it's a deserved title for Uerdingen!

LEAGUES AND CUPS IN GERMANY 2013-2015

Darkology said that it would be nice to see an overview of what is happening in Germany.

Season 2013-2014:
In the 3rd tier Red Bull Leipzig were the champions and also Heidenheim promotes to the 2. Bundesliga!
View attachment 439184

In the 2nd tier there were 2 teams who gained promotion to the Bundesliga: Fortuna Dusseldorf won the league and Greuter Furth were second. Mainz won the promotion playoff against Union Berlin, so no Berlin derby next year.
View attachment 439183

The race for the title in the Bundesliga was between 2 teams: Bayern Munich (the team I hate) and Borussia Dortmund. Who made it... Well you see it here:
View attachment 439181 It is DORTMUND!

DFB Pokal:
View attachment 439171The first cup under Guardiola.

Maybe it is interesting to show you the Europa League, Champions League an World Cup.

Europa League:
View attachment 439179 Bayer Leverkusen reached the last 16 and Stuttgart and Bayern Munich the last 8. Tottenham (a team a support in real life) are the winners!

Champions League:
View attachment 439178Borussia Dortmund reached the last 16 and Schalke 04 the last 8. Juventus has won the cup, very surprising!

World Cup:
View attachment 439177 It is a shame that Germany didn't make it to the second round!
View attachment 439176France are the surprising winners, but they got some great youngster like Pogba & Kondogbia.
Algeria were 4th after a 2-1 defeat against Uruguay, but that was the biggest surprise of the tournament that they reached the semi-finals!

Season 2014-2015:
No world cup this time.

3. Liga:
View attachment 439175Halle wins the league and Kalsruhe and Chemnitz promote!

2. Bundesliga:
View attachment 439174Freiburg wins the league and 1860 Munchen promotes, so next season a Munchen-derby!
Koln has won the playoff against Eintracht Frankfurt and they promote.

Bundesliga:
This season there was only one team who could win it and that team is... Bayern Munich.
View attachment 439172

DFB Pokal:
View attachment 439170A win for Fortuna Dusseldorf, what a great season they had!

Europa League:
View attachment 439169Hannover 96 and Werder Bremen reached the second knockout round.

Champions League:
View attachment 439167Schalke 04 reached the second round, Dortmund the quarter finals and Bayern Munich has lost in the final against Real Madrid. AS Monaco in the semi-finals was a big surpris, but they won in 2013-2014 the French Ligue 1.

So this was a worldwide overview of the last 2 seasons.

Next update: TACTIC + PLAYERS + PRE-SEASON (2015-2016)
This update will be online at the end of the day.
