Yeah I did a little research on them and it seems like Vincent Tan owns them now haa.

April and May
View attachment 356326
We're coming into the last two months of this season now, with the league look wrapped up for us I was looking at keeping my preferred 11 for the important cup matches.
With the first leg of the semi final going particularly we were looking to consolidate that performance in the second leg and reach the final.
After looking at the structure of the Cup, i found out that the final is two legs which is strange.
Here's the fixtures for April and May... (going to be a long one this
)

Slobado Tuzlo vs FK Sarajevo (2/4/14) Cup
View attachment 356323
Bit of a poor performance from us, luckily for us our good first leg performance meant that we were never really in any trouble and always looked like we'll progress into the final.
We were decent defensively and I was disappointed not to see us keep a clean sheet after conceding a stupid own goal in the last minutes of the match.
Man Of The Match - Hrgovic
Zeljeznicar vs FK Sarajevo (5/4/14) League
View attachment 356322
Very important win this, it basically wrapped up the league title and do it away to our big rivals is great accomplishment for us.
Unusually we were completely outplayed, and we relied on our defense to keep us in the game which they did greatly.
I set us up to counter after realizing we were looking the weaker team, we then soaked up all the pressure and hit them on the counter effectively and nicked a winning goal.
Man Of The Match - Nadarevic
FK Sarajevo vs Zvijezda (12/4/14) League
View attachment 356321
Although we have already got the league wrapped up, I still wanted to end the season strongly and this loss was disappointing especially when we created so many chances to score.
We may have started off a little complacently which saw us concede two goals, we then started to play with a little more urgency but we just couldn't pull it back.
Man Of The Match - Travancic
Rudar (PR) vs FK Sarajevo (19/4/14) League
View attachment 356316
Nice to see us bounce back well after a disappointing loss to Zvijezda, it basically just felt like another routine win as we controlled possession and carved out a lot of openings on goal which we converted well.
Man Of The Match - Osmanagic
FK Sarajevo vs Travnik (26/4/14) League
View attachment 356311
Really unlucky to lose this match, to have 14 shots on target and to lose 1-0 is really annoying.
Our strikers usually provide us with a lot of goals so it was disappointing to see us squander so many good opportunities in front of goal.
Although if we're going to have a bad game then this isn't the worst time to do it with the league title already in our hands.
Man Of The Match - Vuslijanin
FK Sarajevo vs Zrinjski (30/4/14) Cup Final First Leg
View attachment 356305
This result in the first leg really leaves the tie in the balance, it also means we have to go Zrinjski and get a goal which will make for an exciting second leg.
It was rather disappointing to concede two away goals especially with the second one being so late on, the two away goals leave us at a disadvantage looking forward to a second leg.
Man Of The Match - Travancic
Zrinjski vs FK Sarajevo (3/5/14) League
View attachment 356304
We played a weakened team in this match as I looked to give some other players some minutes on the pitch, I though this match would be typical end of season match but it turned out to be a really good match with a lot of goals late on.
Man Of The Match - Vuslijanin
Radnik vs FK Sarajevo (10/5/14) League

Really good match, after going 1-0 down we reacted really well and scored 4 great goals.
Great way to end our league campaign and add a bit of confidence going into the second leg of the final.

Absolutely ecstatic! What a time to pull our best performance of the season.
I was expecting a really tough game, but we completely blew them away with fluid, quick and exciting attacking play.
This win see's us complete a League and Cup Double in our first season!!

End Of Season Summary
Probably the best season in FK Sarajevo's short history, to win a League and Cup double in our first season is really exciting and a great accomplishment.
It would of been great for us to have a little run in the Europa League but unfortunately we weren't quite strong enough to compete, with a lack of financial backing it's unlikely we'll realistically be able to compete in the Europa League.
So after a great first season, I'll be looking to move on to my country and try and replicate the success of this season!
Here is how the league table ended up...
View attachment 356300
It was a great season and we won it in the end with comfortable 8 point-gap, it's also pleasing to see us finish ahead of of our big rivals Zeljeznicar.

Player Of The Season
View attachment 356297
It could of gone to about 3 or 4 players as we had a great season, so it was a difficult choice to just pick one.
However, with 10 goals and 12 assists in 24 games I decided to give player of the season to Amer Osmanagic.
Goal Of The Season
[video=youtube;Cl6xfSHOLTY]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cl6xfSHOLTY&feature=youtu.be[/video]
So many good goals to choose from, but this one summed up our style of play with us passing it around midfield waiting for an opportunity to shoot at goal.

England isn't exactly obscure, so probably not sorry.
ASEC Mimosas
View attachment 356235
So here's the new club.
The job luckily became available after their manager took another job strangely at a lower positioned club in the same league.
The Ivory Coat season also ends a lot later than our's, so we can weirdly win the league with ASEC Mimosas within a few games as they're currently sitting in 2nd, one point behind the leaders with three games to go.
This makes their manager's decision to leave even stranger.
Although they were knocked out of the cup fairly early on so we'll definitely be doing a full season at ASEC Mimosas.
The Squad/Tactic
View attachment 356229
The squad looks fairly strong for this level, although there's a few position i'll look to strengthen in time for next season.
Here are the three players I've identified as our key players in the squad...
Jean-Jacques Bougouhi (ST)
View attachment 356224
He looks like he'll be our main goal scorer, very pacey and has some great key attributes for this level of football.
He has 12 goals in 21 games, hopefully he can carry that form into my first full season.
Mark Sekyere (CDM)
View attachment 356216
Incredibly athletic player, he's our best midfield player and i'll look for him to provide the energy and power within midfield and also look to break up the opponents attacks and play the ball off to more creative players.
Mohamed Wonkoye (AML)
View attachment 356207
First of all, great name.
He seems to be the team's main creative outlet, his technical stats are really good for this level just a shame he's isn't a little bit quicker. Hopefully he'll provide a lot of good service for Boughoui from the wing.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
End Of Season Fixtures
We're in a bit of a strange situation which I didn't notice we'd be in, we've joined ASEC Mimosas with a great opportunity to win the league title
Here's the fixtures...

ASEC Mimosas vs JCA (14/6/14) League
View attachment 356165
We have our keeper to thank for this win, they caught us on the counter a few times and he pulled of some great saves.
Boughoui and Koffie showed signs of a partnership as they linked with each other for both their goals, we also dominated the possession which we often failed to do at FK Serajavo
Man Of The Match - Doumbia
USC Bassam vs ASEC Mimosa (21/6/14) League
View attachment 356168
Another top performance, Boughoui and Koffie showing once again their strong partnership and i'm sure they'll big players for us next season if we can keep hold of them.

What an incredible start to our time at ASEC Mimosas, we blasted 3rd in the league away to take the League title on the last day as AFAD Djekanou slipped up.
Boughoui is proving to be an incredible player, hopefully we keep hold of him as there's a lot of interest in him unsurprisingly
So we're in an strangely good position having won two league titles in two different countries in the space of a few months
Man Of The Match - Boughoui
So as I mentioned before we took the league title on the last day, there's a lot me to try and win though as we've qualified for the African Champions League and also have another two Cup competitors to try and win.

Pre-Season and Transfer Window

Here's who we decided to bring in to strengthen our team...
View attachment 356114
I took quite a long time to assess the squad and find where we were lacking real quality, my task was made very difficult because we are only allowed a maximum of 4 foreign players in the squad.
We also lost two of best players as they wanted to play for a bigger club, but i feel we replaced them quite well.

We also had a really good pre-season, which strangely saw us play some of our league opponents as they were really the only teams available to play due to our league starting a lot later than is usual for most other leagues.

Coupe Houphouët-Boigny and October

With the season starting of with Ivory Coast's version of the Community Shield, we were looking to get of to a winning start and add another although minor trophy to our collection.
We were also looking to build up a bit of momentum in the League as we strive to be challenging for the league title.
Here's the fixtures....

ASEC Mimosas vs AFAD Djekanou (27/9/14) Coupe Houphouët-Boigny
View attachment 355717
This was a really tough game against the team that will probably contend with us for the league title, it's always horrible to lose on penalties but once we got there we totally bottled it and the quality of our penalties was awful.
Looking on the positive side though, we've proven we can create a lot of chances against the top sides in the league and have shown we'll be very competitive this season.

In reality we should of been winning this game a lot easier than we did, we had home advantage and ASI Abengouro are a mid-table team.
Unfortunately we are looking a bit shaky defensively, we'll look to sort this out by tweaking our tactic and maybe focusing on our defensive positioning in training.

A largely positive start to the first month of the season, I was a little disappointed that we didn't win the Coupe Houphouët-Boigny but we we put in a good performance which softened the blow.

Another very short month, however this month still carries some importance due to the very big game against our league rivals AFAD Djekanou.
Taking a win against against our fellow league contenders will build confidence within the squad.
Here's the fixtures for this month...

ES Bingerville vs ASEC Mimosas (1/11/14) Ligue 1
View attachment 355641
Always know it's a great performance when you score 5 goals away from home, ES Bingerville are no pushovers within this league and to dominate the game against them is pleasing.
Also great to see our attacking players linking up and playing so well together.
Man Of The Match - Boughoui
ASEC Mimosas vs Denguele (8/11/14) Ligue 1

Another cracking performance from the team, we didn't give them a sniff at goal while also creating a lot of opportunities for ourselves.
Always love to see a clean sheet as well, it's really the cherry on top of a quality team performance.
Man Of The Match - Boughoui
AFAD Djekanou vs ASEC Mimosas (29/11/14)
View attachment 355638
Biggest win of the season so far, made even more special as we went down to 10 men very early on in the match.
Once Sekyere got sent off I though we were in trouble, therefore I set the team up to counter and they were no doubt going to put a lot of pressure on us.
We did greatly and hit them effectively and got the second goal, they scored late on but we hung on to get a very important win.
Man Of The Match - Boughoui
Another maximum point taking month, the win against AFAD Djekanou was a very important win as it put us top of the league by three points.
There was a 21 day break in between two of our games which was a bit strange, although it means are squad aren't suffering from fatigue resulting in less injuries
Here's the league table...

Transfer Update
View attachment 645315
Just a quick little transfer update here for you as we've brought in two new players...
Dominique Gomis
So our player, Valentine Zougrana has been complaining about not getting first team football. i felt he wasn't playing well enough when I did give him a chance, so I kept on leaving him out of the team.
This has lead to him handing in a transfer request, so basically Gomis is his replacement...

Ekow Benson
We were lacking quality in the AMC role, I tried to rectify this situation before the season started but there wasn't much available.
This meant we had to play one of our strikers out of position in the AMC Role, fortunately we were offered Benson by his agent and he seems to be a good fit for our club...
