Here's feedback from my second season with my beloved Inter. I have sold all 30+ years old players (without Cambiaso, Milito and Zaneti) and Pereira for 32 mil. I bought in mainly young talents with the intention to play Milito/Fierro/Longo up front. Got few players on loan too (De Bruyne, Essien, Coquelin) However Fierro got injured for 9 months and I was short on strikers. I bought Abel Hernandez for 8 mil, but the first half of the season I had real problem with the strikers. Milito wasn't scoring, Hernadez scored but not as much as I wanted, so in the winter transfer window I've bought unsettled Falcao for 42,5 mil (10m + 32,5 for 48 months) and he turned to be the real deal.
My expectations for the seasons were:
1. Serie A - Winner (after winning the title in the previous season, the board expected another win)
2. Champions league - The board expected 1/4-final, but for me every game after the group phase would have been success.
3. TIM Cup - No expectations as I always use my 2nd choice players.
The results:
1. Seria A - Winner with 34 wins and 4 draws. Although many of the wins were 1-0 because I had real problem with the strikers in the first half of the season.
2. TIM Cup - Winner. The only game that I used my first team was the final agains Juve, won 1-0.
3. Champions League - Winner (surprisingly). In the group I was with Man C, Metalist and Fenerbahce and I managed to win the group. First knockout round I got the team that I always hate to play against in FM - Liverpool. I lost the first game 2-1, but won the second with 3-1 and went through to the 1/4-finlas. There I met Bayern and I in an amazing first game i won 4-1. The second game wasn't much of contest and I lost 2-1. On the semi-final I met Man City again. In the group I managed to win 3-0 at home and 1-1 away, but this time the result at home was just 0-0. The away game - what a crazy game. I won 2-4 with 4 goals from Guarin. As for the final against Real Madrid I'll just let the screenshot speak for itself.
