Haha, was on about the football club Sheffield Wednesday. Lens was owned by Hafiz Mahmadov, he was also the guy behind the sponosr visit Azerbaijan sponsor on the Lens shirt and Athletico Madrid shirt at the time. And as a show of good faith he sponsored Sheffield Wednesday. Then everything went pair shaped and Mahmmadov had all his assets frozen

Another successful season for us, glad to see PSG, struggle a bit and finished 3rd! We also won Coupe de France after beating Lyon 4-0 in the final.

Also superb run in Champions League, getting to Semi Final is amazing. No shame in going out to Real Madrid. Who will also play Barca in the final!

What a season for Openda

Next season - Not entirely sure what the plans is, thinking about offloading few players to make way for youngsters.

Just signed this guy for 1M (was approached to sign thingy plus %) Came across him while looking at U21 European Championship, and he was named in team of the tournament. Got high hopes for him.  Also labelled as next Andoni Zubizarreta,

 

Thoughts on him anyone?

New season, trophy in bag already 😎

We didn't play any games in pre season at all, forgot to check staff responsibilities and when I sacked my assistant manager to bring in Marsch, FM randomly put Nuno Gomes to arrange friendlies but didn't do anything! 😂

For a 16 year old GK those stats are incredible already, needs work on composure if playing as a sweeper keeper but that will come over the years also. Nice find

Been a busy summer, offloaded deadwood players that won't make the grade.

In

Spent 15M on this kid, I like the look of him and hopefully will be Openda's replacement in near future. Gone out on loan

No-brainer to bring in Beek on free. Been decent so far!

Was looking through players on amateur contract which I came across SecondYellowCard video about players on amateur contracts other day and have been handful. I like the look of this guy.

Out

Sadly our former captain, Augusto, was shown the door as he's 31. Got few youngsters are ready to replace him. So he went back to Brazil. Was captain for past 2 seasons. Sad to see him go. However, our new captain is this guy

Was VC past 2 seasons, so promoted him to captain. Also turned down 75M from Man utd for him.

Pretty good season so far, despite defeat to Chelsea and Bayern. Been giving youngsters few game times this season. Frustrating that PSG, still on my arse 😑

Transfers

Made few signings during the season, here are few that are pre signed

783746d9807d2d2b7b861ca983c14550.png

Costing me 6.25M and Looks very decent and will probably be Comas's replacement in the summer.

42cf6141303f49ace99d9c8c6f72f865.png

Another defender signing, looks great, feels defence still need more depth. 800K.

a19ddb18868a8eb02ebf56ad16f497cc.png

Feels we are lacking depth at left back, Oliveira, comes in for 3.3M

a26b10bc9c75a68f042de25bde0edd4f.png

Another signing from South America, 3.8M. Replacement for Samed.

d228856abcf571f545003e30d4c7ef5c.png

Was looking at teams from Colombia and came across this guy, costing me 1.2M. Also looking to offload Van Beek, in the summer due to his age.

After not playing this save for few months, just completed my season. And wow what a race between us and PSG! PSG struggled in last 2 games, with 4-2 loss at home to Troyes and a 1-1 draw with Lorient. Which I drew 0-0 with Lille and won 2-0 against Brest in last 2 games. We also wrapped the league up after draw with Lille. We also beat PSG 4-0 at home and drew 0-0 at their place.

Champions League - we crashed out to 3-2 to Arsenal 😞

We also won Coupe de Ligue Final with Balde, coming off the bench to score late winner 😄

There also a shock winner in Champions League final! 🫣

With Gian Piero Gasperini's Atalanta beating Bayern!
