[Abe Sargent]

I get the offer for the Hungary National Team…

Now…do I want it? It’s a lot of work. Usually I do both, but last dynasty in Slovakia and later France after I moved I skipped it and had my longest dynasty ever because all of the time doing both wasn’t needed. Do I want to do it again this time? Hungary would be a challenge.

Let’s think about it.

[Abe Sargent]

I look at the squad. Is this something I could do damage with? I had a great run with Romania but the game had gifted me a studly AMC on a massive level called Robert Lupu. What does Hungary look like? This would be a challenge. In the 8 game EURO Quals, they won just 1 game, by a score of 1-0. But they were close. 3 ties, 4 one goal loss.

Do I do this?

[Abe Sargent]

Here’s my main issue:

Championship Games from 1st Leg to Group Stage– 14
Cup – 5-8 games
NB1 – 33 games

Do I want to add 10-12 national games to that?

I’ll sleep on it

[Abe Sargent]

Alright let's do it to it! Get ready for a deep dive into all things Hungary.

[Chas in Cinti]

Awesome!

[Abe Sargent]

Hungary National Squad Breakdown

We have a young 19 future all star named Dominik Szoboszlai who I will be building my tactic around



Here he is! As you can see, he’s very good for his age, very expensive, and already 11 caps. I believe that he was mismanaged as an MC as I think he’s a better AMC, so I am creating an AMC spot for Dominik to lurk at.

I inherited a 4 def, 1 DMC, 2 MC, AMR, AML, and ST. I keep the same but move him to AMC from MC to give me another attacker. I massage some of my folks around.

Here is our starting 11

Gk Gulasci – 2nd best player on the team
DC Elek, Korcsmár
DR Varga
DL Kadar
DMC Nagy – 3rd best player on the team
MC Szanto
AMC Szoboszlai
AMR Balogh
AML Dzsudzsák
ST Rado

Our defense is really weak save for GK and DMC

Current Subs

GK Megyeri; Bogdan
DC Vinicius
DR/MR Bese
ST Futacs
DL Korhut
DRL Botka
A/M RL Stieber
A/M RLC ST Kleinheisler
DM/ M/A RL Nagy
DC/DM Lang

Hungary – We are in this group for World Cup Quals:

Hungary
Georgia
Luxembourg
Norway
Portugal


Uh oh Portugal

[Abe Sargent]

I arrange friendlies

The Hungary National Team moved up from 58th to 43rd

I arrange friendlies with the USA and Turkey

I make a transfer offer to a young DC from Colombia named Edison Farfán that I want to bring in with my ST. Is he interested? Too pricey, their starting offer is 1.7 Mill. How about MC Fabián Correa? Also too pricey, their starting over is 1.5 Mill. AMC Jorge Carrascal? Too pricey. MC Jorge Humberto Uribe? I make an offer.

I talk Kempf down from wanting a transfer to Dortmund.

The offer for Uribe is upped to 500k before they accept. Do I want to spend that much on a guy who’s likely a backup MC? I don’t.

I make a 50k offer for Juan Leudo who is 17 and Spanish and Colombian.

We’ll see him in a month or so!




Here are my contracts about to expire. Dubek is playing down, and getting old, and I make some offers to some youth here. I also make offers to some staff.

[Abe Sargent]

Ronaldo is Player of the Year

Joseph Mendes won 2ND Place in African Striker of the Year!

Dodoi won Romanian Player of the Year!!

Dodoi – Champion- 13 games, 10 goals, 3 ass, 7.42 rating; NB1
18 games, 13 goals, 5 ass, 7.52 rating

He’s gotten a lot better, as he started cold, and we’ll see a problem with that in a month or so…

January

Jan 20 – Transfer Window Opens
Jan 25 – Fr, Home vs Sleven
Jan 29 – Fr, Away at FC LOKOMOTIVA KOSICE


I get two big offers for Vicente at 1.8 and 1.9 mill. I turn them down.

I reject a minor offer for Cerny

[Abe Sargent]

Just assume I keep saying no to offers for players like Ross, Kempf and others. Now if I got an offer for Dodoi, I might do that because I gave a first team offer to my new ST joining us here in a moment, because Dodoi was looking poor and we were beginning the season with 1-0 games and losses against MTK and 6.3 efforts, so I brought in his replacement, but he has played very well since then.

Wow a 1.3 Mill for Ross is close.

Anyone free I want to knock on their boots? I start with youth. Not really. No backups or anything either

The transfer window rises

Want to see our new ST?



Here is 18 year old Jose Rodriguez from South America. I offered him a first team role as he looked pretty good. What I’ll do is start him in the friendlies and give him an honest shot to prove himself in 5 games or so, and then after that, we’ll figure it out.

[Abe Sargent]

I accept some loan offers. I offer O’Dwyer for loan

Uh oh…SLB made Cerny’s Min Release Fee of 1.7 mill… I love Cerny he’s one of my people…

I reject an offer for Luque for 110k

I get two more offers for Cerny at 1.7 mill. Stupid agent wouldn’t go any higher! Cerny is just 4 months away from being homegrown at my club!

Friendly #1 – Home vs NK Slaven Belupo – We win 4-1

I start looking for a sigh…Cerny replacement…

I start scouting players like Mehdi Carcela and Roberto Bolz and Jaroslav Mihalik and Alisson Christhian Jerônimo dos Santos. The two Brazilians are my favorite choice right now, but let’s see how the scouting goes.

I loan my 3rd GK out, as well as Alex Perez. I loan O’Dwyer

Friendly #2 – Away at FC LOKOMOTIVA KOSICE – We tie 1-1

I loan Jordan Duncan

Cerny signs. Who do I want to bring in? I now have an almost 2 mill transfer kitty to bring in his replacement. Who do I like? Who will join me? The best choice after one round of scouting is probably 20 year old Brazilian Alisson Christhian Jerônimo dos Santos. But that would take up another non-EU spot. Is he interested? That would be my first question. How much do they want?

We negotiate 900k

Now, here would be the deal.

Non-EU – ML Barker, ST Rodriguez, DC Ross, and if he is a backup ST O’Dwyer

This would be my last spot, and would remove that flexibility moving forward.

Alright, let’s do it

We sign him!



Here he is! As you can see, he comes in with a 3.5 star rating and the ability to grow to 5 stars, and he can play the Winger role we need at MR, as well as solid stats. He is a key player with a 5.5k/week salary and for a few years.

I move him to start our next friendly.

[Abe Sargent]

I make an offer to free GK Alex Dos Santos to give him another young player on the squad.

I get an offer for Baranowski, my first. No thanks!

He wants an improved deal and I grant it!

[Abe Sargent]

Magyar Kupa, Round 4 , First Leg– Away at Honved – I begin defensively with my two new South American players.

Timeline

21st Minute – Vicente gives away a PK and they sink it
Ross a card
44th Minute – Alisson crosses to Rodriguez for goal!
HALF – 1-1
Dinga for Ross; Baranowski for Vicente
Mendes a card
Mangana for Jung
We tie 1-1
This was Rodriguez’s first game at the senior level! Welcome to Hungary!

[Abe Sargent]

I still have a ton of transfer cash with 946k left. Could I bring in some more Hungarian youth like Csoboth and Safar? Let’s look to see what I can unearth. How about stud 19 year Gergely Hutvágner who is already better than Rimniceanu? I make an Enquiry.

That’s pretty much it.

How about my Dubek replacement now while I’ve transfer kitty?

How abut 16 year old Dominik Neumann from Germany? I scout him. I also scout Nicolò Buso. Do one of them want to come here and are they cheap enough? Neumann starts at 5 mill, what about Buso? 28 mill. Nope.

The transfer deadline passes

Friendly #5 – Home vs Goverla – We win 2-0




We get our new youth movement. Anyone here that I like? ST Lambert is 2.5 star potential.
