Played one season with Rosenborg in Norway.
Some boring trivia first. The season here is a bit strange compared to most of Europe. We start playing in April and end late November. The transfer windows are also not the same, but slightly overlap. So it's all a bit weird.
Rosenborg is one of the better teams in the league. They used to be the best in the league by far, but that's a while ago in the Nils Arne Eggen era (when we actually reached the quarter finals of the Champions League). These days I'd say Molde should be the favorite to win the league, with 4-5 teams pushing them, Rosenborg being one of those. Anyways, on to the results.
Here's the league table and fixtures

As you can see we completely dominated in the league and cup. I'm not happy about some of the away games in particular though. We concede way to many goals. I've been mixing between no OI and different setups, but I'm having a hard time finding the right balance there. Just getting better defenders will help ofc.
Our only two losses of the season came in the EURO Cup group stage against teams that really should beat us with 5-6 goals easy. And yet I think we deserved better in both matches.

Here's a couple of my favorite matches. Molde is the big rival (even though they had a terrible season) and ofc Fiorentina is a team we should have no hope of beating, but we did.

Here's the 3 main strikers. Not exactly Ronaldos, but they did really well. Nielsen played as the center striker, scoring 36 in 41. All he really has is speed.

And here's my favorite player of the year. A 16 year old midfielder doing so well is amazing.

We kept losing important players through the season. Because of the way the league works we also have contracts running out in January instead of June. And some of my "stars" didn't want new contracts. Losing Svensson, Selnæs, Strandberg and Helland throughout the season was a big blow, but I was expecting that.

Of course we are still in the EURO cup as well after beating Fiorentina in that last match. And next season we'll have CL qualifiers, although we'll probably need some luck in the draw to the group stage.

Anyways, I'm sold. This tactic rocks!
