Finished my first season with Man City last night. I clinched a spot in the Champions league with 2 games left, but, still went out and won both games.
Finished 3rd in the table with 81 points and a overall league record of 24-9-5. Pato led the Premier League with 20 goals in just 24 games played. Andy Carroll was right behind him with 19.
The board told me that they were "disappointed" with our finish as they expected me to win the Premier League. They graded the season as "poor," and told me that at the end of the month they would let me know my fate.
After that, they let me conduct business as usual and I resigned 22-year old Vladmir Weiss to a 3-year contract at 28,000 GBP per week. He fared well on his loan at Real Espanyol and is young enough that I feel he will progress quite nicely.
Finally got notice that the board was keeping me on for another year, if I agreed to a "paycut" from 6,000 GBP per week to 5,000 GBP per week. I was a little pissed and looked around for some other offers. I got some interesting offers: Standard de Liege (Belgian club), FC Twente (Netherlands) of the Eredivisie, Spartak Moskva (Russia) of the Russian league and the big offer was from AC Milan (Italy) of the Serie A. I am considering the offer from Milan , but, I doubt I will leave. Man City is my fav team IRL and I would like to perform a little better against the big boys of the league. I was 1-0-3 against Man U (win came in Community Shield game), I went 0-1-1 against Chelsea, I was 2-0-0 against Liverpool, 1-1-1 against Arsenal (Lost to them in FA Cup semis) and 2-0-1 against Tottenham. Overall, I was 6-2-5 against the better clubs in the EPL and I'd like to fare better overall against those teams.
