From the Lowest of Lands
Hello guys.
My name is Thomas, and this will be my first and maybe only story for FM 2014. I will start in the bowels of the Dutch competitions and hope that I get better and better jobs during the many years I hope to play this game. I?ve done this challenge before with VVV and later got to Twente, Club Brugge, Ivory Coast and Bayern. Now I hope to get more clubs under my watch.
This year I?ve loaded the Belgian, English, Dutch, German, French, Italian and Spanish leagues, all to the second level.
This year I?ll start with Sparta Rotterdam. It?s a club who always play for promotions in the Dutch First Division, but haven?t been promoted for several years. I hope to promote with Sparta and stay there for at least two years.

Pre-Season
Squad
When I took a look at my squad I realized I had a lot of talented defenders. Especially the DC and the DMC were heavily occupied. That?s why I tried an inconventional tactic: 4-3DM-2AM-1. I only needed an extra DM for that for back up.
Transfer
My eye fell on the Spanish Ram?n Arcas. He seems talented and could also close gaps when necessary right now. He was on a free, so I decided to offer him a contract, which he signed.
Fixtures
My pre-season was cluttered with big matches (including FC MF Barcelona). I decided to drop some (like Bremen and RKC) and added an amateur team. The pre-season didn?t go as I hoped as I lost to Capelle. On the other side I think I overperformed at Frankfurt by defeating them 2-1.
