AND THE TOTTENHAM LEGACY BEGINS!

Last year I started this save and it had a good following so lets see how well it does this time. I decided to not sign any players in the first window which will make it a little more of a challenge.

SQUAD 2013/14

View attachment 448481

View attachment 448480

A very strong squad with a lot of decent back up players. It will take a small amount of time to get the players clicking as a unit but I am sure we will make a big push for Champions League football next year.

STAFF OVERHAUL

View attachment 448478

We mutually terminated most of the contracts and brought in a lot of world class staff.

AIMS OF THE SAVE

Well last year I won everything in two seasons before my save corrupt so I will be looking to replicate that success.

1: Win the Premier League
2: Win the Domestic Cups
3: Win the Champions league & Club World Championship

The updates will be done monthly and I hope you enjoy the story as much as I enjoy playing with my favourite side!

AUGUST

Arsenal 0 - 2 Tottenham
Dembele, Chadli

A fantastic performance starting off the league beating rivals Arsenal.

St.Gallen 0 - 1 Tottenham
Soldado

We started off the game well with a lot of back up and youth players fielded. Soldado opened the scoring in the 7th minute and that is how the game ended.

Tottenham 2 - 2 Cardiff
Townsend, Dembele

This result was definetly not expected as Cardiff scored two goals before half time. We showed great character to bring it back to 2-2 but we left it too late to score the 3rd goal.

Tottenham 3 - 1 St.Gallen
Paulinho, Townsend, Soldado

We cruised past St.Gallen as Soldado and Townsend scored a goal each to keep their good form going. Paulinho opened the scoring with a wonderful individual effort.

He played very well this month and has settled in very well.



 
Being a spurs season ticket holder I will definately follow. Though it's Hotspur, not Hotspurs. :P, hehe. Hopefully Soldado will start finding net more like he does on the game!! Keep up the good work.

A strong performance with Defoe scoring the only goal.

Tottenham 4 - 1 Swansea
Soldado(2), Defoe, Eriksen

Soldado and Defoe linking up well with bot strikers scoring goals in this game.

Tottenham 3 - 0 Beroe
Sigurdsson, Dawson, Defoe

This team is the worst in our group so I expected to beat them easily and we did so.

Crystal Palace 0 - 0 Tottenham

A terrible performance but a point none the less.

Tottenham 3 - 0 Middlesbrough
Holtby, Sigurdsson, Adebayor

We play a rotated side and dominate the championship side to advance into the next round.

Eriksen

A vital three points at home to Chelsea as we prove to all the other teams we are the real deal.

A decent draw against Wednesday and we should move into the next round.

OCTOBER

Real Sociedad 1 - 1 Tottenham
Lennon

A decent performance away in Spain however both teams had chances to take all 3 points.

Everton 2 - 4 Tottenham
Dawson, Eriksen (2), Heitinga (OG)

Eriksen again showing he has the qualities to produce in the final third as he added another two goals to his tally.

Rose, Townsend, Lamela, Dembele

The Everton game gave us the confidence to breeze past Newcastle and take another 3 points against a very strong side.

Lamela (2), Kaboul, Dembele, Eriksen

Thats our 7th point out of a total 9 so I am very confident we can go through.

Aston Villa 2 - 0 Tottenham

The good run came to an end when Agbonlahor scored both goals for Villa.

Tottenham 5 - 1 Sheffield Wednesday
Defoe (3), Eriksen, Dawson

We fielded a very strong side as I really want to try and win as many trophies as possible. Defoe took Soldado's place and proved he is a clinical finisher.

DECEMBER

Southampton 3 - 4 Tottenham
Lamela (2), Eriksen, Soldado

All of our biggest summer signings pulled through in this game as we beat Southampton in a 7 goal thriller. They scored their last two goals in the last 5 minutes so the scoreline doesn't tell the whole story.

Tottenham 1 - 1 Stoke
Kaboul

Stoke are always a hard side to play against and our only goal came from a Kaboul header.


Tottenham 2 - 1 Fulham
Vertonghen, Defoe

The same result as last nights game in real life this time we were playing at home.

We then played Liverpool in the league and scored two late goals to carry on our run without a loss.

West Brom 0 - 3 Tottenham
Lamela, Sigurdsson, Defoe

Dominating performance away at the Hawthorns.


Tottenham 0 - 2 Man Utd

I will be hoping to get this game out of the players heads as soon as possible.

If we win our game in hand we will be level on points with 2nd place and only 1 point behind 1st place so it is very tight at the top of the table.

Defoe has done very well in the past few months and has been keeping Soldado out of the team for most of the games.​

We bounced back from the Arsenal defeat by smashing Chelsea in the 1st leg of the Semi Finals.
