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.

In the next post I'll talk about 2013-14 season.

2013-14: Portsmouth: a powerful newcomer.

The season began, and Pompey had some difficult friendlies to made. I could manage to win all of them.

im playing as pompey atm, see if you can get fierro/quintero as strikers both under 3 mil each. have a look at bruno ecule manga- beast of a defender, romario, kakuta (on loan)
 
THE WONDERKIDS

1)
Alberto Tomás: a Spanish centre back, bought this season on a €2M deal from Zaragoza. On the signing Arsenal joined the race, and I almost lose him, but I could bring him to Pompey.
View attachment 236479
2) Jan Volf: a Czech right back, bought last season on a €700K deal from Brno. He already made 6 apps for the Czech club, and Barça was interested in him last season. Made 2 cup matches and look good (7.30 avg rat). Currently training him onto a left-back position.
View attachment 236476
3) Dionisio Manuel Martínez: a Spanish striker, bought this season on a €775K from Recreativo. Seems like a good deal, 'cause he's a great prospect. Already made 2 apps for Recre and 2 cup matches for Pompey (6.80 avg rat).
View attachment 236477
4) Michael Heinrich: a German defensive midfielder, bought last season on a €1.2M deal from Heidenheim, a Third Division club. An excellent prospect, with great tecnique even still being a youngster.
View attachment 236475
5) Juan Luis: a Spanish attacking midfielder, bought this season on a €1.5M deal from Recreativo. An excellent prospect, with great speed and determination.
View attachment 236478
OTHER WONDERKIDS
6) Philippe Le Borgne: a French keeper, bought this season on a €3.5M deal from Stade Rennais. An excellent , with positioning and agility.
7) Fabio Coppola: a English-Italian right back, bought this season on a €110K deal from Rochdale (yes, 110K!). An aggressive player, Fabio already made one appearance for Rochdale, in good form (7.20).
8) Jonas Fröberg: a Swedish attacking midfielder, bought this winter on a €1M deal from IFK Norrköping. A real speedster, this player has also the abiity to take a penalty. He already made 3 apps for IFK, with one assist and a 6.70 avg rat.

You mean Romario, the right back? If is him, I already got him for winter, on a 3mil transfer. I'll take a look at Ecule Manga, thanks mate. Could you put the full name of Fierro and Quintero? I don't like loans, on my three seasons I don't have any "loaned in" player in my squad, but I'll see Kakuta too mate, but for a permanent deal. (: Thanks alot Kayah
 
Ecuélé Manga is already on OM in my save ): And probably OM ask for a enormous fee to transfer him.

u must be some wonder manager mate i struggle to get portsmouth going nd jst wen a start winning they sacked me :(
 
No way mate! I appreciate your comments, but I'm too weak as manager, only did a good job on the Championship, but there I had good players in the bench too. In the EPD, I'm too slow on transfers, losing a great number of great players to Arsenal, Chelsea and anothers.
 
carlos fierro - plays for chivas mexican team(at the start of the game) and darwin quintero ( not sure of club) both awesome poachers. Lorenzo Crisetig ( plays for inter milan) is an awesome defensive mid, romario the right back err full name is Romário da Silva Santos. i signed ryan shawcross for ten mil in my 3rd season - averages 7.5 plus :)
 
Carlos Fierro: I tried to contract him, but he picked up a 6 month injury. ): Romário will come on the next season, in this he is on loan to Braga. Crisetig is already on my team, and i'll see Shawcross and Quintero
 
Quintero stil on Santos Laguna, 3.2 mil value. Shawcross was bought, he's now on Tottenham (10 mil value).
 
THE MATCHES
29.10.13 - Swindon 0-2 Pompey
On the 15th minute, Drogba scored after a Baxter's pass. On the 55th minute, Obolo scored with a lob on the Swindon keeper.

2.11.13 - Pompey 3-1 West Brom
On the 23th minute, Manucharyan scored on a penalty made by Lemaitre. On the 38th minute, Ogunjimi scored with a low shot in the right corner. On the 59th minute Oguinjimi scored his 2nd goal with another low shot in the right corner. On the 89th minute, Tamas made a penalty in Ogunjimi. He then scored and completed his hat-trick.
 
In my team he's doing pretty well in all the seasons, progressing well with the team. He was scouted by Chelsea, Juve, Wolves and anothers like Anzhi this season 61lfc51 (:
