I think my post has some errors, because I'm Brazilian, and my English is not the best.

Well, I began the game in Portsmouth, relegated in 2009-10 and underrated in 2011-12 (I think).
I was there to rebuild the team, and I bring a good number of free transfers.
My main transfer with fee involved was the €1M deal for Kasper Lorentzen.
Sold Aaron Mokoena and Tal Ben Haim to Getafe and Genoa, respectively, because both had high wages and I want to keep wages controlled.
After the first season, my club lifted Championship title, without a defeat! Established a new record and won the Championship Manager of The Year.

I put on the spotlight Erik Huseklepp, Liam Lawrence, Benjani, Geremi Ndjitap, Greg Halford and Glenn Verbauwhede, with a good display from Krisztián Németh and Hayden Mullins, fantastic subs for Championship clubs.

2012-13: Pompey and the English Premier Division.
After the promotion, board granted me a medium wage and transfer budgets. Bringing on a extensive number of free transfers
The better ones: Cesare Bovo, Ritchie De Laet, Reynald Lemaitre, Joe Lewis, Owen Hargreaves, Jorge Martínez, Marc Muniesa and Evan Chevalier (great wonderkids).
Then I bought Kyle Naughton (€1.6M from Tottenham), Danny Guthrie (€1.6M from Tottenham) on the summer window and Marvin Ogunjimi (€7.5M from Liga Adelante's Mallorca).
With some good results against big clubs like Chelsea, Man City and others, Pompey finished his first season in 7th place. I also won the English Premier Division Manager of The Year.
