FM: Belluno....Yr. 4 - The Season of Change

[kingfc22]

Welcome to the 4th season of my Belluno dynasty. Belluno is a small club in Italy's Serie C2/A.

Year one can be found here. (http://../%7Efof/forums/showthread.php?t=36403)
Year two can be found here (http://../../%7Efof/forums/showthread.php?t=36763).
Year three can be found here. (http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/showthread.php?p=741658)
2006 World Cup can be found here (http://../../%7Efof/forums/showthread.php?p=741907).

Season 1: We finished 11th as we went 11-11-12. 44 pts. (-2 G.D.)
Season 2: We finished 8th as we went 13-10-11. 49 pts. (+10 G.D.)
Season 3: We finished 2nd as we went 17-12-5. 63 pts. (+34 G.D.)

Last year was a very exciting time for Belluno and its supporters. Not only did we put the ball in the net a record amount of times but we also WON PROMOTION!!!

That's right. This will be my first season in Serie C1/A.

However, not everything at Polisportivo is going as planned. The talent that got me to this level are demanding pay raises and they are asking for more than I can offer.

With that said, Belluno will have a big hill to climb to be able to blend together a new group of player's while trying to avoid relegation.

Current Financial Situation:
-$603K but we did make a $321k profit so it is not as bad as it may seem.

[kingfc22]

June 24, 2007

The board has invested $56k.

We get a horrible new sponsorship deal. We are only getting $22.25k per year for the next 3 years. Our previous deal was for $128k a season.

Didn't I just promote a level????

Padrin left a memo on my desk that the transfer budget for this season will be $90k. Once again, I get to keep 15% of all transfer revenue.


June 25, 2007

We finalize the tansfer for Polar's Jakub Zmyslony for $6k.


June 30, 2007

Salvatroe Masiello has been voted as the Fan's Player of the Year for the club. No surprise here as he dominated the competition last season.

Our U-20 squad has two players that have been recently promoted form our academy:

(M L) Francesco Castelli and (S C) Roberto Marchisio. Ok, I'm tired of getting left sided midfielders. I want a little variety please. Marchisio looks like he might be able to turn into a promising player.

[kingfc22]

July Update

The Belluno directors are very pleased with my performance as manager.

They are concerned with the club's long term financial future.

The board expects us to stay clear of relegation from Serie C1/A.

The Belluno supporters are very pleased with the progress the club has been making.

The supporters are in full support of my management of the club.

The supporters also expect us to stay clear of relegation.


All I can say, is that I will do whatever it takes to stay in Serie C1/A.

[kingfc22]

July 1, 2007

I get word that Pro Vercelli is in financial crisis and that they are willing to consider any reasonable offer for any of their players.


July 3, 2007

Luca Tomasig has accepted by offer to extend his contract. He took a $50/wk paycut down to $700/wk.

I make an offer to loan (GK) Marco Schianchi of Parma. He's only making $650/wk and I offer to pay 100% of it.


July 4, 2007

I get 2 more bids for Ferraro and both are worth $80k. I accept the offers from Gela and Fermana.

I get a bid for Vitolo worth $550k and I counter with an offer of $650k.


July 6, 2007

It's Leandro Rinaudo's turn to ask for a big raise. He wants $4200/wk which I can not offer. He's on the TL now for $150k as he is valued at $110k.

[kingfc22]

July 6, 2007

I remain VERY busy this offseason. A lot more than last as I look to sign 17 yo. (S C) Riccardo Di Pietro.
Details
$1100/wk - He wanted $1000/wk
- $100 goal bonus
- $50 assist bonus
- 15% yearly increase
- I add a $4k signing bonus.

I also have looked into loaning a striker or two to replace Vitolo and Makaveev.

Speaking of Vitolo, Los Charros have offered $650k and Cremonese have offered to co-own him for $380k. I accept both to see what Vitolo decides.


July 7, 2007

Daniele Tormen has joined Excelsior on a transfer for $48k but we only get 50% of that because the previous manager put a stupid clause in the contract.


July 8, 2007

The board has invested $280k. We now sit at -$342k.

I get 5 bids for Rinaudo and I counter by raising it up to $180k.


July 9, 2007

Aleksandar Makaveev has signed with CSKA (Sofia). They will be paying $1.4M for this transfer. I'm sad to see this talented youngster go.

Torino have inquired about Salvatore Masiello. I tell them that if they pay me $3M I will gladly send him over. He is valued at $1.85M.

[kingfc22]

July 10, 2007

We get a great free transfer in youngster, Riccardo Di Pietro. The 17 yo. from Frosinone has agreed to come play for me and he will start up front.

Salvatore Ferraro has decided to sign with Fermana. They will pay us $80k.

Nocerina and Padova offer $180k for Rinaudo. I accept both offers.


July 11, 2007

Well, Torino agreed to pay $3M and I accept. Salvatore Masiello is no longer a member of Belluno and I go and search for a replacement.

I make a $52k offer for Maycoll Canizalez who is playing for FC Dallas right now, but he is valued at $340k.


July 13, 2007

I accept a bid from Cambuur that will eventually be worth $960k for Vitolo.

I make a $200k bid for (GK) Alfonso De Lucia. He is valued at $1.3M and Parma was asking for $280k.


July 14, 2007

FC Dallas accept my offer for Maycoll Canizalez. I offer the left winger a contract.
Details
$600/wk
- $30 assist bonus
- $420k min. release clause

I approach to sign Sampdoria's Ivan Artipoli.
Details
$1000/wk
- $32k signing bonus - up from $28k
- $2.2M min. release clause
- 10% yearly increase


July 15, 2007

Rinaudo has agreed to join Nocerina and they will pay us $180k for the transfer.


July 17, 2007

FANS ANGER AT SALE OF BELLUNO FAVORITE

Belluno manager David Gonzalez is not proving to be the most popular person at Polisportivo at the moment.

The sale of popular attacking midfielder Salvatore Masiello to Torino for just $3M has provoked an angry response from the Belluno fans who felt the player was a big part of the club and has been sold on the cheap.
It's not like I really wanted to sell him, but he was wanted and $3M for Belluno is a huge amount of money.

This sale might save Fuzik's future with the club as I am now able to offer him $3200/wk which is closer to the $4400/wk he is asking for.

Canizalez has agreed to terms and is set to join the club.

[kingfc22]

July 18, 2007

Vitolo is staying in Belluno this year, but he is now co-owned with Cremonese. They paid us $380k in the deal.

My wage budget has gone up from $20k to $32,500.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif

(GK) Alfonso De Lucia went on loan to Pro Sesto, but I make an offer to buy him for $240k.


July 22, 2007

Parma have accepted my bid for De Lucia. I offer him a contract.
Details
$2200/wk
- $4k signing bonus
- $100 clean sheet bonus
- 15% yearly increase
- I remove the min. release clause


July 24, 2007

De Lucia accepts my offer and he joins the club and for the first time that I can remember his ratings are much worse than what my scout has told me. Usually, he just over-values players, but this time he way over estimated his talent. Tomasig looks to be the better player right now.


July 25, 2007

The draw for the Serie C Cup was today. We are in group A.

Here are the other teams and our record against them:
Alto Adige 4-0-5
Cittadella 0-1-1

Triestina 1-0-0

[kingfc22]

Riccardo Di Pietro and Stefano Pietribasi have joined the club.


August 4, 2007

I put Pietribasi on the TL for $100k as I have a backlog of strikers.

I am described as a media-friendly boss and here is my Profile:


Ability to handle pressure: 10
Ambition: 12
Loyalty: 14
Media Handling: 20
Professionalism: 3
Tempermant: 13
Asst. Manager Giacomin is 54. He likes to play 4-4-2 and loves the attacking style of play. He is terrific working with youngsters, but is only average when it comes to judging talent.

Asst. Manager Espinoza is a 32 yo. from Mexico. He likes to play a 4-3-3 and he likes an adventurous style of play. He is very good with youngsters and his coaching skills are above average all around. He is also very good at judging player potential.

Coach Lenisa is 47. He will be our GK coach. He is a 4-4-2 guy who likes to play an attacking style. He will also be key to evaluating talent.

Coach Caser is 55. He will be our outfield coach. He also likes to play the 4-4-2, but he has told me that he would prefer to sit back. He is a good motivator as well.

Are physios are both good at their jobs. Stracuzzi is 31 and Pescosta is 45.

Graziano is our lone scout at the moment. He is 56 and he works well with youngsters. He is above average at judging ability but not so good at judging potential.

I hope that having 2 Asst. managers does not create any conflicts. I am currently looking for another scout as well.

GOALKEEPERS

Luca Tomasig - 24 yo. who shared PT last season with the recently departed Daniele Tormen. He had a decent pre-season and will split time again as the starting keeper. He set a career high with 10 cleen sheets last year.

Alfonso De Lucia- 23 yo. old who came to Belluno from Parma for $240k. I was all set to make him my starting keeper until he arrived and his ratings dropped big time. This is the first time that my scout was fairly far off on his evaluation. De Lucia had a poor pre-season and will have to earn his spot as the main starter as he will be used in the rotation for now. Last year he was on loan at Monza and he has played his last 2 seasons in Serie C1/A on loan.

(AM R) Pietro De Giorgio - 24 yo. who signed as a free transfer from Frosinone in the offseason. He will take over Carnelossi's spot in the starting lineup on the right wing.

(AM C) Mauro Grasso - 16yo. who was an academy graduate in '07.. It is still early to say whether or not Grasso will make the first team, but he did play well for the U-20 squad last season.
Grasso is making $70/wk and is signed until 7/31/07.
Value - N/A

(S C) Roberto Marchisio - 18yo. who was an academy graduate this offseason. He played well with the main club in the pre-season and I can see him staying with Belluno for awhile. He is a future captain in the making.

Pietro De Giorgio has suffered a lengthy injury in training today. He will miss the next 5 months with a fractured skull.

This sucks for us because the right wing is the posistion where we have the least amoung of depth.

Lumezzane seemingly dominate the ball for most of the half and we could not get much going against their 4-2-4 formation. We somehow have a 6-4 shot advantage, but they have 55% possession and 26%-14% in our end.

63' - Carnelossi and Vitolo come on for Zmyslony and Pietribasi.

65' - De Lucia comes up with a big time save to keep us even.

74' - Marotta gets a break away following our corner kick, but De Lucia comes out and he deflects the shot over the bar.

75' - De Mattia on for the tired Sekoranja.

80' - Carli tries to beat De Lucia to the far post, but his attempt is pushed wide.

89' - A free kick from the edge of the box finds its way to the near post and it goes in. De Lucia never saw it through the wall.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif

We almost get a point on the road, but that late goal took away from a brilliant defensive performance.

Shots: Belluno 10 - 10 Lumezzane
Sot: Belluno 2 - 7 Lumezzane
Corners: Belluno 2 - 11 Lumezzane
Fouls: Belluno 17 - 5 Lumezzane

MoM: Alessandro De Bortoli (9) - 1st of season and career. He won 7/10 tackles, won all 7 headers (3 key) and made 4 interceptions.

Postgame Notes:


De Lucia, Aquilanti and Sestu all earned 8's.
Zmyslony had an average game on the right wing, while Carnelossi earned a 7 as his replacement. This is by far my weakest posistion and is a concern for me and my attack.
We had 49% possession today.

26' - Vitolo drops a nice pass to Di Pietro who gets a nice shot on goal, but it is tipped over.

29' - Simone gets open in our box and he shoots it past De Lucia for a goal.

35' - Ceccarelli picks up his 2nd yellow card of the match and he is sent off.

36' - Zmyslony replaces Di Pietro.

Again, we struggle offensively. We have been outshot 6-8, but we have 51% possession.

52' - De Lucia makes 2 very nice saves to keep us down by 1.

55' - De Lucia makes another save, but he allows a rebound that Simone pounces on and he puts it over the line for his 2nd goal.
De Mattia on for Fuzik.

63' - Again, De Lucia allows a rebound that is easily put away and we are down by 3.

78' - De Sousa on for Vitolo.

We get beaten bad 0-3 as we played most of the match a man down.

The first 45 minutes see S.P.A.L. get most of the chances. It's still scoreless as we have been outshot 3-10, but we have 54% possession.

59' - De Sousa and De Mattia on for Di Pietro and Sekoranja.

65' - Kabine sends over a cross for De Sousa in the box, but he is unable to win the ball. It is headed out towards the top of the box where Canizalez hits a ball that floats over the keeper and into the net.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

66' - Banev on for Kabine. I move to a 4-5-1 with 2 DM's as I try to gain 3 pts. at home.

67' - De Lucia with a big save and the rebound is cleared. He really needs to start catching the ball. Geesh!!!

68' - Virdis receives a free kick at the near post and he puts it in.

72' - De Sousa breaks into the S.P.A.L. box and his shot is saved and their keeper pounces on the loose ball before we could get to it.

The match ends in a 1-1 draw.

Shots: Belluno 5 - 12 S.P.A.L.
Sot: Belluno 4 - 4 S.P.A.L.

7' - De Sousa finds himself open 10 yds. from goal with half the net empty and he manages to put it over the bar.

13' - Vitolo sends De Sousa on a run with a nice long ball and the finish was there, but Venezia's keeper, Pachi, tipped it over.

23' - Fine save by Tomasig off a corner keeps us even.

31' - A nice combination of passes set up Esposito to score and give Venezia the lead.

45' - Corallo hits the post for Venezia.

We trail by one at the break. We've been outshot 5-9 and they have 61% possession.

45' - Di Pietro comes on and Fuzik exits as I go to a 3-4-3.

47' - The move does not work as the ball pinballs around in our box until Esposito finds it and places it in the net for his 2nd goal.

60' - Pietribasi replaces Vitolo.

71' - Ceccarelli is called for a foul in our box and the ref awards Venezia a penalty.

72' - Esposito knocks it home and that seals his hattrick.

85' - Carnelossi is whistled for handball in the box and Venezia gets another penalty.

86' - Espostio scores again to give him 4 goals in the match.

We get blown out on the road today, 0-4.

Series: Belluno 0-0-0 vs. Acireale
Season: Belluno 0-0-0 vs. Acireale

Pregame Notes:


Acireale is 1-8-2 and in 16th....We are 4-2-5 and in 11th.
Acireale has played 7 matches without a win.
Acireale come out in the Italy formation and they are without thier starting striker and starting center back.
We finally face a team in the bottom of the table.
I decide to change things up and go to a 4-3-3 to try and take advantage of my fire power up front. Also, the injury to Sestu and the lack of success for De Mattia has led to me abandoning the DM posistion for this match.

6' - Guadagni gets a nice cross at the far post and puts the header in.

21' - Giuliatto sends in a cross to De Mattia in the box and he is tackled and we are awarded a PENALTY!!!

23' - Sekoranja steps up and he puts it in to tie the match.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

34' - Ligori gives Spezia the lead back with a goal.

40' - We manage to get ANOTHER injury. Pietribasi is forced to leave and Di Pietro enters. This is borderline insanity.

We trail by one at the half. We have a 6-4 shot advantage and we have 54% possession.

65' - Solagna on for Sekoranja.

75' - De Sousa receives a nice ball from Solagna and he makes a move into the box. His shot is saved, but the rebound falls to the feet of Di Pietro who puts it in the empty net. That ends 7 game scoreless drought.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

76' - Spezia come right down on the ensuing kickoff and score to take the lead right back.

84' - Spezia ice the game as Agazzone scores his first goal of the season.

We lose this one 2-4 on the road and nothing I do seems to work.

Postgame Notes:


Canizalez earned an 8 today mainly because he made 8 offensive runs.
Fuzik and Vitolo earned 5's for their efforts.
I'm going to move to a 4-5-1 and try to earn some ties and use more of a counter attack as my current strategy is not working at all.
YELLOW CARDS: Ceccarelli, Fuzik
INJURIES: Sekoranja suffered a damaged shoulder and will miss about a week.

7' - Tomasig makes a save early on to keep us level.

31' - Tomasig keeps us even with a few more good saves.

The score is even at 0 when the half ends. We have been outshot 2-9 and we only have 49% possession.

68' - Fuzik and M. Amoroso come off for Carnelossi and Vitolo.

78' - Big save off a header for Tomasig keeps the game tied.

79' - De Sousa comes off for Pietribasi.

The game ends in a draw, but we get a much needed point.

Shots: Belluno 3 - 11 Triestina
Sot: Belluno 0 - 5 Triestina

Fouls: Belluno 7 - 6 Triestina

MoM: Luca Tomasig (8) - 2nd of season/6th of career. He made countless saves to earn his 4th clean sheet of the season.

Postgame Notes:


Everyone earned a 7 today.
We had 49% possession today.
I'll probably use this same type of formation in our next match.

Venue: Dino Manuzzi, Cesena
Weather: Dry, 46 F
Attendence: 3406
Odds: Cesena (4-7) FAV
Referee: Unknown

Series: Belluno 0-0-0 vs. Cesena
Season: Belluno 0-0-0 vs. Cesena

Pregame Notes:


Cesena is 4-9-4 and in 11th....We are 4-4-9 and in 17th.
Cesena tied Monza 1-1 four days ago.
Cesena come out in a 3-5-2. They have 4 middies across the center line and 1 AMC. They will be without their starting DC due to injury.
I have gone back to my normal 3-5-2 today as Carnelossi is back on the right wing and Sestu is back in the DMC posisiton which should help.

I agree to loan out (ML) Francesco Castelli to Bolzano. He has only seen time as a backup on the U-20 squad and this move will hopefully allow the 18 yo. to see more action.



I'm currently looking over the TL to find a defneder that can play on the left side or center because Zmyslony has not performed up to what I thought he would.

17' - Carnelossi got a solid shot off in the box, but the keeper managed to tip it over.

23' - Carnelossi makes a fine pass to Fuzik who makes a move into the box and he hits it past the keeper into the net at the near post. That's his first goal of the season.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

Boy does it feel good to type that again.http://dynamic.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

At the half, we have a 1-0 lead. We have an 8-2 shot advantage and 59% possession.

66' - M. Amoroso and Banev come on for Carnelossi and Vitolo.

77' - De Sousa replaces Pietribasi up front.

88' - Ceccarelli makes a fine tackle on Urbanati who had a step on him and was about to enter the box alone.

89' - Tomasig gets fooled on a bender and it somehow the 25 yd. shot beats him to the near post and the match is all square.

Ughh. We dominated this match from the start and to not get 3 points is very, very disappointing. 1-1 was the final score.

Shots: Belluno 14 - 5 Ravenna
Sot: Belluno 6 - 3 Ravenna
Corners: Belluno 4 - 1 Ravenna
Fouls: Belluno 9 - 14 Ravenna

MoM: Maycoll Canizalez (9) - 3rd of season/6th of career.He completed 27/34 passes, made 13 runs and had 6 interceptions.

Postgame Notes:


Like I said before, disappointing not to get 3 pts. against the weakest team in the series.
Ceccarelli and Fuzik earned 8's for their fine performances today.
We held 58% possession.

January 7, 2008

Maycoll Canizalez was named to the Serie C1/A team of the week.
- 2nd time of season/2nd TOTW of career.


January 8, 2008

We received $20k from Daniele Tormen's transfer clause. He appeared in his 20th league game for Excelsior.

I place Pietribasi on the TL and I receive 4 bids for $44k. Having 5 strikers on the squad just does not make sense and he is the odd man out.

4' - Fuzik has a nice chance in the box, but he puts it over.

6' - Tomasig with a big save off a corner kick and the rebouind is cleared.

9' - Tomasig with another brilliant save as he tips it over the bar.

45' - Camoni finishes off a nice run of play for Monza to give them the lead.

45' (+1) - On the ensuing kickoff, Canizalez takes it down the left wing and sends a cross to the far post...Di Pietro is there and he puts it into the net to equalize the match in less than a minute.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

At the half the match is tied 1-1. Shots are also even at 5 apiece and we have 52% possession.

56' - Sekoranja replaces M. Amoroso.

73' - Kabine and Aquilanti enter and Vitolo and Banev depart.

80' - Fuzik makes a nice move to set up a shot from the top of the box and it shoots past the keeper and Fuzik continues to stay hot.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

A solid team effot today on the road leads to a 2-1 victory.

Shots: Belluno 14 - 9 Monza
Sot: Belluno 9 - 8 Monza
Corners: Belluno 8 - 5 Monza
Fouls: Belluno 12 - 11 Monza

MoM: Luca Tomasig (10) - 3rd of season/7th of career. He made some very nice saves today and held onto his 10 for the entire 2nd half.

Postgame Notes:


This win moves us up to 11th on the table with 23 pts.
De Bortoli, Ceccarelli, De Mattia, Canizalez, Fuzik and Di Pietro all earned 8's.
Kabine also played very well as a late sub and also recorded the assist on the Fuzik goal. His constant hard work over the past 4 seasons combined with his productivity is why he is not on the TL and why Pietribasi is.
YELLOW CARDS: Carnelossi
INJURIES: Sekoranja will miss 3 weeks with a groin stain.

January 14, 2008

Luca Tomasig was named to the Serie C1/A team of the week.

January 16, 2008

Stefano Pietribasi's short stint with Belluno has come to an end. He was sold for $44k to Sansovino, a Serie C2/B club.


January 27, 2008

Over the past two weeks, I have continued to scour the TL for another defender. I have made a few offers, but none have matierialized so far.

Ascoli offered to pay $40k to co-own Alfonso De Lucia, who has been a huge disappointment so far in net. I accept the offer and we also get to keep his services as a backup to the incredibly hot Tomasig.

68' - Florian sets up another goal for Treviso to make it 1-2.

77' - Grasso puts one in for Treviso as he beats Tomasig to the far post.

January 31, 2008

As the transfer deadline comes to a close, I was unable to convince player's to come on loan for Belluno. I also did not find anyone that would be cost effective in the back line. My goal is to survive this season with the current group and make some moves in the offseason.

I am told that DM Alessio Sestu's contract will expire in 6 months. He has played solid in this role for me over the past 2.5 years and he has a 7.07 rating in league play, I will offer him a contract becuase this is not a NEED posistion for me.

I make him an offer:
Details
$2000/wk through 2011- he wanted $2400 wk (currently making $1400/wk)
- $110 assist bonus
- I did not add or retract any clauses

AM RLC Bruno Carnelossi's contract is also set to expire in 6 months. He has played most of the season on the right wing due to an injury to starter, De Giorgio. He is a back-up and nothing more. He has a 6.71 rating in league play this season. I will not offer him an extension because I have another player lined up for next year. (More to come on that...)

D RC, Alessandro De Bortoli will see his contract expire in 6 months as well. The 27 yo. does not belong in Serie C1, but he has always seemed to play above his talent level. He currently has a 7.00 rating through 18 starts this season. Banev is now better in skill, but the way my back line is setup I have to use Ceccarelli on the left and De Bortoli in the middle. Banev is training to learn the center back posistion. I offer him a contract because he is only asking for $550/wk.

Teodor Banev's contract is now under review. The young 20 yo. is developing nicely and will be in the starting rotation soon if not a constant first teamer.

Details
$1600/wk throguh 2012 - that's what he wanted (making $340/wk right now)
- $460k min release clause
- 10% yearly increase
- 10% promotion wage rise
- 10% relegatin wage drop

Igor De Mattia, backup to Sestu, is cheap and efficient. He has a 7.07 rating in 15 league apps this season. I offer him $700/ wk.

Like I mentioned above, we did sign a player. Andrea Bovo, a 22 yo. AM RC will join the club to start next season. The 2.2M valued player was bought for $300k from Palermo. He will be a big upgrade over Carnelossi and will allow us to use different formations as well.

Late in the day, we get Alessandro Pangrazi to sign on a free transfer. The 20 yo. striker is lighting up Serie C2 as he has 11 goals in 17 games. He is currently valued at $80k and this move could spell the end of Vitolo's run as a member of Belluno.

They are happy with the club's current financial status.

The board expects us to stay clear of relegation from Serie C1/A.

37' - Amerini scores off a nice set play to put us down 0-1 in his debut for Lumezzane.

45' (+4) - Vitolo has a good chance in the box following a nice pass by Canizalez, but a very nice save is made and the rebound gets put out for a corner.

At the half we trail by a goal. We have a 6-5 shot advantage and possession is 50/50.

65' - De Sousa capitalizes on the Lumezzane error. A cross into the box by Carnelossi finds a Carli who heads it back to his own keeper who was not ready and the ball landed at the feet of De Sousa who put it away easily.

February 6, 2008

I offer Latina, $24k to purchase GK Gianluca Landi. My scout believes the 19 yo. has a bright future ahead of him and I need a new U-20 keeper as my current one is 22.


February 9, 2008

Latina counter with an offer. They want $14k up front, $24k over 6 months and 35% of his next sale. YEA RIGHT. I get rid of the next sale clause and tell them I will give them the privilage to play me in a friendly. I also let them know I will send them $40k after 10 intl. caps and I offer them $28k up front.

Referee: Unknown

Series: Belluno 0-0-1 vs. Mantova

Pregame Notes:



Mantova is 10-9-8 and in 7th....We are 7-7-12 and in 15th.
Mantova has not won in 6 matches and we have not won in 4 matches.
Mantova use a normal 4-4-2 and we counter with our standard 3-5-2. D. Amoroso will get the start on the left wing today to see if the kid has learned anything while playing for the youth team most of the season.
Mantova has 5 injured players, but only striker Francesco Millesi is a key injury. His 7.39 rating and 4 goals will not be missed by my defense.

We are now 6 points out of the safe zone and the amount of injuries combined with recent team form, we will most likely end in the playout games.

11' - Ligori just put a shot over the bar. We were lucky there.

15' - Spezia hit the post and Ceccarelli clears the ball off the line.

18' - Vitolo gets booked twice and we are now a man down.http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/images/smilies/frown.gif

19' - Spezia goes right down the field and scores to put us down a goal.

22' - But wait a second, Di Pietro pounces on a bad pass by the Spezia defense and one-times a shot past the keeper to the the game.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

45' - Alberto Guiliatto is forced to leave the game with an injury and Canizalez enters the game a littler earlier than I would have liked.

We have a 55/45 possession advantage at the half; however, 30% of that possession is in our own end. We have been outhsot 3-7.

59' - Tomasig makes a big time save to keep the game tied.

69' - Di Pietro is subbed out for De Sousa. I need to get a pair of fresh legs up front.

73' - Some nice passes by Spezia set up a great opportunity for Zizzari and he scores.

87' - De Sousa has a great chance after a nice pass from M. Amoroso, but he shoots it right at the keeper.

We end up losing 1-2.

Roberto Marchisio's contract has expired. We offer to renew the 19 yo. contract. I think he has a good upside and my coaches all believe he has good potential.


April 13, 2008

Marchiso agrees to the contract extension and will be around until 2011.
