    Results thread

    Brag about your team here or talk about how maybe you blew a 3-1 lead to Napoli after the first leg at home in the CL round of 16 only to lose 4-1 and get bounced. Maybe that Napoli team also beat you in the CL final 1-0 the year before despite having all the attacking power you could dream of.

    Maybe now your best attacking player and second best CB are demanding transfers because you promised them the CL title. Maybe your big summer signing named Thiago has been pedestrian and not worth the price tag but despite all this you're sitting in first by 3 points with 4 to play in a race that's been between you Chelsea and Spurs since day one.

      Run in going awful. Back to back draws against Huddersfield and Leeds. Still 1 point up on Tottenham, both of us with 2 games left. Chelski 3 points back.

        RAHEEM. Back to back hat tricks to wrap up the season and give us the title.


        Also Man United, City and Arsenal all missed out Champions League.

          I'm 14-0-1 in League at early December.

          Finished 2nd in my group to Bayern in UCL. (They've won in 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2017)

          Won the French Champions Cup (Second in a row)

          Lacina Traore is my leading scorer in Ligue 1 with 12 goals in 11 apps (3 hat tricks)

          2nd is my 17 year old Italian wonderkid, Moha with 6 goals in 10 apps. I expect he'll make the 2018 Italian National team if we can make it to the Semi's in UCL.

            Bayern just won in mine as well. They're too damn good. Also BR got fired from Arsenal. Coutinho and Sakho both decided to stay too after handing in transfer requests. Going for the treble this year.

            The board won't extend my contract despite winning the league and it's up at the end of this upcoming season.

              For some reason Arsenal refuses to interview me. Even when the job has just opened, I get a "Job application unsuccessful, the application phase has finished" message.

                  Finished atop my UCL group. Finally received a favorable draw in Benfica, who are missing their two top players for both legs. I should be able to walk through to the QF at least.

                  Qualified for the Finals of the Coupe de la Ligue for the 4th straight season

                  In the Ro16 of the French Cup (Where I flamed out in the Ro64 the past two years to lower division teams)

                  1st in Ligue 1 again, 8 points clear at 63 points with 23 matches played. (21-0-2)

                    Finished 2019, Won Ligue 1 again, Coupe de la Ligue, and finished as the Runner-Up in UEFA Champions' League.

                    Arsenal came calling the day before the UEFA final and I delayed accepting a contract ~1 week to find out preliminary budgets for the next season.

                    To stay, OM offered a transfer budget of 191 Million Euros and wages of 3.9 million/week . So it looks like I won't be leaving.

                    Digging into this transfer budget, I sold off ~50 million worth of dead weight players, including my two aging wing backs and Lacina Traore who netted most of the profit (my flank defenders average between 7.20-7.40 season ratings in my tactic).

                    Brought in Luke Shaw (45 Million) , James Ward-Prowse (50 Million) , the best regen Wingers I could find for a combined 65 Million and a few other spot guys, about 6 players for 10 million euros. It is fair to say that the next season will be the final gasp at a Champions' League victory before searching for a new position. Adding ~1 million in wages per week are going to severely drain the club's financial status.

                      So yeah, that time in November when you realize 6 first team guys are out for 3 weeks or more, and you check your physio staff to see 4 guys with 16+ motivation and 17+ physio attributes.

                        Just got hired by Coventry and started out with 2 draws and a win. Not bad for being at the bottom of the totem pole and having a solid showing vs. 3 top five teams.

                          Drew Olympiakos in the CL first knockout. That's a cakewalk.

                            Held on to beat Bayern 3-2 on aggregate. Played Mourinho-ball.

                              Damn, of the 8 teams left in the Champions League right now, 4 are English. Me (Liverpool), Chelsea, Newcastle and Spurs. And I've just drawn Spurs.
