Congratulations! Only in 2015 too Must've took some doing that. Screenie of your squad?

Cheers mate . The squad itself isn't the greatest, just changed tactics every two games so the opposition had NO idea how we would play.

Spoiler:West Ham squad 2014/15

what skin is that? très sexy

Right so not had any luck with keeping to a save at the moment so decided to start as Chivas got two great young Players in Eric Torres and Carlos Fierro add the fact that every one of there players is Mexican which I am going to keep will update once i have made my transfers

Just won the Premier League after a 1-1 draw with Man City, leaving me free to focus on the FA Cup final coming up next month against Tottenham and getting to the CL Final.

My attack is awesome, will have to work on defence though in Jan or more likely at the end of the season.
RBs are Corchia and Azpilcueta and LBs are Cissokho and Jobinson. Think I'm fine there.
But in the middle I only have 1 great option in Otamendi. Toloi and Manga are my other 2 options, they are decent but I need better.
Conceding too many.

Just finished off my domestic campaign in charge of Liverpool in the third season, and what a domestic season it turned out to be. Won the league by 17 points whilst also breaking 100 goal barrier (125) and also breaking the 100 point barrier (104). Beat Fulham 2-0 in the Carling Cup Final and I beat Stoke 3-0 in the FA Cup Final, also beat Chelsea 1-0 in the Community Shield. Ended the Premiership season with a convincing 6-1 victory over Birmingham goals courtesy of Oxlade-Chamberlain, Gerrard and a quadruple from King Suárez.

On the European front after winning the Europa League last year, that meant I was in the European Super Cup which ended 4-3 to us AET vs AC Milan, very entertaining game to watch that one was! Robinho and Suárez both hit a hat-trick a piece in that game. The Champions League saw us qualify from a group consisting of Porto, Atletico Madrid and Anderlecht comfortably. Then in the Knockout Rounds we proceeded to beat off Juventus, Lyon and Real Madrid before reaching the Final against Barcelona. They had Villa suspended and Thiago injured whereas I had Gerrard suspended and Milner out, both vital players for both sides. The Champions League final saw Jonjo Shelvey start against Iniesta in only his 9th start of the season due to injuries and suspensions to Milner and Gerrard. Suárez shoots, Puyol puts into his own net and Suárez is denied another goal unfortunately.



So by the end of the third season the only possible remaining trophy I can acquire is the Club World Championships. Hopefully I can win that next year. But now the aim is to fade out the foreign players and solely rely on my youth academy (or young English players at least). Will be so hard to let Suárez go, so he may be one of the last foreign people I let leave the club.

[PLAYER STATS]

Suárez broke the Premiership goal scoring record hitting 44 in a single league season, he was also named as FWA Player of The Year. Douglas Costa picked up the PFA Player of The Year award, I was named Manager of The Year again and Skrtel, Douglas Costa, Gerrard and Suárez were all named in the PFA Team of The Year. Such an unbelievable season with an interesting fact that in 26 games throughout the season we hit 4+ goals in a game, including 4 goals in 15 of those, 5 goals in another 5 of them, we also hit 6 goals on 5 seperate occasions and even added an 8-0 rout in there against Stoke.

Standout players for me over that season were Suárez, Gerrard (more or less 34 now), Gaitán, Douglas Costa, Milner, Kolarov (as a makeshift winger in Gaitán's 4 month absense), Cavani, Humphries (in his breakthrough season), Oxlade-Chamberlain, Skrtel and Lucas also caught the eye.

Just remembered I agreed to pay £10.5m for Jack Wilshere to come and join the revolution too, so may let Silva leave the club if I can recoup a profit upon him. If I have the balls to sell Douglas Costa i'm going to sign the vastly improved Nathan Redmond from the recently relegated Birmingham as Chamberlain's backup.

Next step is to sell some foreigners!

Oh and Fergie, Wenger, Redknapp and Hodgson have just retired on the same day, here comes the manager merry-go-round..

Mahoy Russinov looks great! I remember when I got my first decent regen with Nizhniy on last years game. Had him all the way till he was 33 (I stopped playing that save around then). Turned into a fairly decent player.

Half way through the closing stage of the season and sitting at first! I just suffered my first loss in what is a blistering second half.

Overall im in 5th!

Moreira is progressing fairly nicely, at the age of 16 to be performing like this in his debut season pretty much is very promising!

Since I am stuck for a game at the moment I have decided to start as Man Utd and try and win as much as possible without buying anybody and relying on the youth that come through. The ultimate goal will be to win the Premier League and Champions League with an 18 man squad that has come through my youth ranks.

August Results
CS N Man City L 0-0 (2-3p)
PL A Norwich W 4-1 (Cleverley, Rooney, Hernandez, Surman OG)
PL A Swansea W 4-0 (Welbeck 3, Nani)


2 good wins to start the league season off. Nice to get an away win at Swansea as they are my bogey team on FM this year. I can never seem to win at the Liberty Stadium.

League Table
1. Chelsea 7
2. Man Utd 6
3. Sunderland 6
4. Liverpool 6

2 games to go with Southampton (Second season) and we're 6th, two ahead of Spurs with a game in hand and 4 behind Liverpool with a game in hand on them as well. If I win both games by lots (I have West Brom and City, so that won't happen) I *could* nip ahead of Arsenal in 4th.

Best two regens from the academy:





Trained Rice to be a CM, gonna be amazing.

*bleep* yeah! Beat West Brom 2-1 and drew with City 1-1 to get 6th. Adam Lallana got in the team of the year. Ferguson got manager of the year. Ought to have been me.
