The Challenge

So then we had no money, our form had dropped of a cliff and I was debating carrying on it was almost as if FM had given me a giant middle finger... I had spent a considerable amount of time at portsmouth and was debating what to do next.

So I decided to knock on the chairmans door

And I was like...

and he was like

View attachment 209682

So then I thought forget this I'm out I looked at derby, I looked abroad I looked at coming off fm...

View attachment 209680
Please be serious

So then I carried on first thing I did was sort out contracts I had 3 players leaving at the end of the year Adam Le Fondre, Hutchinson and someone else

anyway I let hutchinson go and gave Adam Le Fondre and the other dude a one year extension on lower wages they weren't great players but they took a wage cut so that'll do I thought.

Then I looked at my loanne's if we have any chance its with them...

Well minus that centre back I got on loan forget his name but he was **** so he was terminated.

First off Da Silva...

View attachment 209679

Result! got another loan extension hes still young and was a key player for us so far so good...

Next up Morris my top goal scorer for the last two seasons from norwich can I keep him...

The Challenge Bring Pompey to the Prem with no money...

FM already got the first punch in with no crowley no morris and no money and an average squad at best this wasn't going to be easy. However I am no ordinary FM player I got this

View attachment 209506


So First off Get rid of the dead wood.. I walked into the dressing room

View attachment 209504

And I was like Chaplin, Sampietro, Burgess, Cesarini, Huntington Pucino Morrison and that AML i bought with no work permit

View attachment 209503
That gave me a bit of this

View attachment 209501

but I was only left with:

A Squad that could end up with one of these

:)


Hope you enjoyed the picture montage my squad and team will be revealed soon!

​
 

So then Lets have a look shall we?

Quick recap over Out's

Carlos De Pena AML not bad got him on a free last year had to loan him no work permit sold 775k :)

Cesairini AMC was poor not going back to my 4-1-2-2-1 formation two wingers no amc sold 500k :) avg rating 6.67 last year oh heck

Sampietro CM I bought last year was unhappy about game time got him on a free 19 games 6.75 went back to italy got 450k

Pucino another Italian failure he was back up to faranoi very poor 20 apps 6.58 got 400k went wolves delighted

Chaplin was one of our original youngsters however he isn't good enough for championship and is an amc time to go

Finally my replacement for beanolunae the 17k guy last year cb He was actually my highest earner even on 9.76k 13 apps 6.55 I know how to pick them eh? 140k happy

and a few more on a free

Ok the exciting part INS!!!

So actually have a bit of money left but was struggling to accept deals due to high wages so i have resorted back to loans slightly :S

so First off on loan is Patrick Ekeng CM Cameroon 29, on loan from Marseille box to midfielder apparently my best CM high work rate strong quick and a whole lot of 12's and 13 in his stats :)

Bearzotti AMR Italian 22 quick good work rate and can dribble well

Bantsimba AMR 18 on from lazio quick and determined doubt he'll get that many games but solid back up none the less

Anton German CB 23 years old strong marking 14 tackling 14 my best CB but ive heard that before

Lewis Forman youngster in the reserves think was bought by staff high potential

Bus Romanian striker did well for preston (league 1) last year 41 20 goals finishing and composure 14 solid 2nd choice

Scott Sinclair yep the former man city dude quick dribbling of 16 and only on 5.5k

Dermaku Albaniain CB on a free worth 3.3m! now marking 14 strong bit slow

Lastly Johnson from preston again huh had no idea :P deep lying player maker decent cm nothing special

Anyone who wants to see any screenshots of players give us a shout!

Weirdly got some money left over so depending on from allows spending for january!

Target? prffh Ive no idea board says avoid relegation I think we'll do better than last year cant imagine us pushing for playoffs tho i miss the prem so much ^^


 
Oh yea get this!

Pako Ayestirain you know LFC's former assistant under rafa dunno how to spell it well he just got the LFC job after klopp got fired and get this hired Fernando Torres as his assistant!

Well Well Well this took an interesting turn!

So 3 wins out of 7 including cups not that great but not terrible I often start really well but this year I've had a lot of new faces changed the tactic so still working on team cohesion and stuff like that.

So in terms of performances The Loanee's are doing really well as is Tony Watt still early so still getting to grips with the squad altho the 18 youngster AMR i mentioned has done very well he won young player of the month!

View attachment 209388
Isnt that nice? :P

Transfers! So Sheff Wednesday came in for Beevers who had started poor and is someone I was happy to offload never done that well for me besides hes off back home how can I refuse? and got some money in the kitty and replaced with someone better see Insua above 325k for beevers Insua 200K rising to 500K if he gets 50 apps

and Delac! now this I took some time over earlier in the window a prem team came in for him naturally he wanted to leave I said he could if the money was right it wasnt deal fell through it has been a minor concern for him. And I'm assuming thats why his performances have been so poor so incomes sheff Utd who are in the championship but top he wants out I got 675k not as much as I wanted but not bad Linder his 120k replacement fingers crossed.

Also the year before this one we had some nice regens come in look at this kid! wanted by Ispwich new contract shut him up nicely

View attachment 209384Going Places so early days still hopefully we will improve :)

A solid month 3 wins 2 draws understanding of tactics and cohesion is getting there my loanees are kicking *** more so than anyone else in the team but its early days still performances are good lots of shots just need to take our chances a bit more if were going to keep on winning. Crowley is kicking *** at fulham...
Rodriguez career has come to a sad end just wasted at st etirre and Morris?

A difficulut month for us, playing some big teams such as sheff utd and southampton and weve come up a bit short but didnt embarrass ourselves leaving us 10th in the league 4 points off the playoffs with a few more goals in the side we could have a real go at this.

So Linder my new GK has done alright with the exception of a clanger agaisnt oldham seriously there was a header at goal it bounced so slowly he went to pick it up then decided agaisnt it and just bounced in!

I mean what is that! the only loanee player not to perform is Bearzotti and given my lack of wingers I'll look to terminate his loan in january and replace him with someone else.

Defence is much better so much so were having more shots & possesion tempted to start to tell them to attack from the off!

Morris? 4 apps 2 goals hasnt set the world a light yet but with a wee bit more time who knows

Pearson, Dermaku and Le Fondre all unhappy due to getting enough game time quite frankly there just not good enough so may have to ship the out aswell

No real highlights this month im afraid just a decent win agaisnt oldham with morris and the young AMR getting the goals

So First off LFC beat man city 4-1 :D

Anyhu Lets see Carlton Morris was doing alright but got injured for 6 weeks and cos he was only on loan here for 3 months let him go back will prob re-return for him in january. Which brings me onto my current problem we cant score Sinclair is our highest goal scorer with 6...

Results arent bad infairness the game agaisnt newcastle was pretty awesome both goals coming from my wingers :p

Morale is decent and.... I will leave you on this note


View attachment 209089

Goal problem?

No more Tony Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat is kicking ***!

Player of the month, 9 goals in 13 last 5 games 8.06 He's doing so well :D

err what else Faraoni and Johnson playing well

in terms of form goals has always been the issue this year keeping with my plan A tactic on counter has allowed us to get the goals while keeping enough goals out :)

Transfer window time! thinking going to ship Norwood out maybe Bearzotti, Adam Le Fondre might bring back Morris got some money to play with is this our year to get to the prem?!?
 
I can't Believe nobody liked the Sinclair post! prffh fine less gimmicks and more detail? I hear you say well you asked for it!

Ok where to begin Transfers!

So scouted hundreds of players but I was reluctant to make too many changes one because I didnt want to disrupt the side and two we have four players on loan who will either need buying/replacing next year and three if we get promoted are they going to be good enough? or more importantly could the money be spent on a better player

So as a result I bought two players Adam Le Fondre left on a a free played 1 game this season was on more money than I realized all good. His Replacement Benzia! I swear thats the kid on fm14/15 who can turn into a god 500k have a look at his stats I think hes gonna be a beast

Secondly Fernandez comes in to replace norwood he wanted to leave not my first choice anymore certainly good enough for the prem got 500k happy days. His replacement is a defensive midfielder which was needed as I didnt actually have a natural one just players who could play there very well. Strong high work rate will be an asset to the side I'm hoping :P

Next form Bantsimba and Johnson take the plaudits Bantsimba is a monster 19 so quick big future ahead of him Johnson is doing well former villa player consistent, passes well gets results

Speaking of results another decent month, another manager of the month for me :) Leyton Orient the 2-1 win was a weird one they were bottom they took an early lead and after a LOT of shots finally got the winner Anton of all people 35 yard screamer

Fa Cup? rested players two goals down after 10mins made 3 subs at half time wasnt enough shame...

Bolton we were unlucky again more shots all over them very unlucky not to get a point

and a tight win agaisnt Bristol Sinclair with a late winner which puts us 4th!

6 points off villa in 1st safely in the playoffs positions and 4 points of leeds who are in second...

We shall see we shall see all is good feeling happy this one's for you m8!
