Today we host Aston Villa in an important EPL Match without a few of our most important players. Aston Villa is in 8th while we are in 1st. They are led by the strong defensive play of Chris Cohen who is playing very well. Chris Taylor is playing well in goal for them. Ville-pekka Luukkonen is playing good strong two way football in the midfield. Fortunately for us, both of their top strikers are out injured! Mourad Meghni is a good midfielder. It's unclear who will start at both striker positions for them today.

We are 4-6 favorites.

It's sunny with temperatures in the 30's.


GK: Dani (he is young and has some talent, but is clearly not as good as I would like in such a big match.)
DL: Trotta
DC: Kompany
DC: Salva
DR: Miller
ML: Downing
MC: Godoy
MC: Heller
MR: Ortega
SC: Rooney
SC: Adriano

S1: Blanco (he is my best backup of what I have left despite his young age.)
S2: Cardozo
S3: Barbosa
S4: King
S5: Oswald

This made me realize that I need to pick up a European keeper to be a reliable backup this upcoming season, unless Blanco develops quite a bit more quickly.

Thanks to their 2-0 loss to Sunderland, we are now 9 points ahead of 2nd placed Chelsea.


We've drawn Sunderland at their stadium in the 5th round of the English FA Cup.


Tim Howard had a poor game as he let in 2 relatively soft goals and the USA lost to Mexico 2-0 in the North American Gold Cup Semi-Final.

Freddy Adu had a decent game, but no one else really put together any good offensive attacks for the USA.

Mexico played Brazil to a 0-0 tie in regulation and overtime of the North American Gold Cup Final. Mexico proceeded to win the penalty shootout 3-1 over Brazil to win the Final!


The USA beat Honduras 3-1 in the third place game. Andrew Douek-Pirotte had 2 goals for the USA from his striker position. He plays striker for Los Angeles.

Trotta, Downing, and Rooney were all selected to the EPL Team of the Week.


Antonio Blanco played very well for Spain's U19 team in a 2-0 win over Morocco in a friendly match.


Michael Oswald picked up a broken cheekbone in practice today and will miss 2-3 weeks.

Today we host Manchester City in an EPL Match. They are in 10th place while we are in 1st. Their keeper, Libis Andres Arenas, is extremely good and is having an extremely good year. Andrew Davies is playing well at centreback. Paul Simpson is a young midfielder who continues to show significant improvement. Their defense is very good, but the offense isn't doing too well. David Miller is the leading striker and goal scorer with 6 goals. Benjamin Lauth is second with 5 goals.


We are 4-7 favorites.

It's overcast with temperatures in the 30's.

Salva suffered a severe back sprain and is expected to miss 3 weeks.


I've been asked by the media how will we do without Salva due to his injury? I reply, "He is an important part of the team, but we have adequate cover."


Chelsea tied Aston Villa 1-1, and our lead over them continues to grow.

Today we travel to play Middlesbrough in an EPL Match. They are in 20th place while we are in 1st. They are a team on the verge of mutiny. Tehir offense isn't playing well and there defense has been weak. Their leading scorer is midfielder Jamie Cook with 6 goals. I wonder if he is going to demand a trade when they are relegated? Their second leading scorer is striker Dexter Blackstock with 5 goals. Charlie Wilson is playing strong at centreback, but no other defender is. Jan Lastuvka is playing well in goal despite facing a high number of shots.


We are 4-7 favorites.

It's overcast with temperatures in the 40's.

You are right about Downing

I'm glad I focused on acquiring more quality defenders this year. Trotta and Kompany are giving me everything I expected. Trotta covers whatever mistakes he makes with his excellent speed

Right now, I think as a group this is my best set of defenders (although I still think Rio Ferdinand and Lucio were the best two individual defenders I've ever had.)

Today we travel to play Mallorca in the 1st leg of the Champions League Knockout Round. They are 4th in the Spanish First Division and they have a talented team. Vincenzo Di Giacomo is an excellent striker who has 14 goals in 20 starts. Pietro Romeo is another very talented striker. Pietro is 27, and he is one of the fastest strikers in the game. He uses great speed, acceleration to get himself opportunities and has excellent finishing ability. Tyrone Earle is a strong left back. Manu is a good defensive midfielder who has excellent jumping ability and he never seems to get tired. Bruno is a 30 year old Brazilian keeper who is very good fundamentally and he always seems to have good command of the box.


We are even odd favorites.

It's overcast with temperatures in the 40's.

Our u18 team beat Manchester City 5-2. Alberto Flores had 2 goals and an assist and won MoM again. He had a 10 for form. He is making Mark Hall (who is very fast, but doesn't have any other outstanding qualities yet) look very good. Hall had 2 goals and 2 assists (both to Flores.) They both look like they could be playing for us regularly in a few years (perhaps much sooner for Flores.)

Auxerre have fired Louis Saha



Fulham shocked Arsenal 3-2 to win the English League Cup.



March 1, 2017 -

The board are absolutely thrilled with the level of commitment that I continue to show the club.


Wayne Rooney has won the EPL Player of the Month. This might be his finest season ever. I apologize to him for suggesting that this might be the beginning of the end. Mike Jongerius of Liverpool came in 2nd, and Ruben Ariel olivera of Sheff Wed. came in 3rd.


Fullham's Craig Gardner, a 21 year old fullback, won the EPL Young Player of the Month. John Woodward of Chelsea came in 2nd, and Christian Giusti of Newcastle came in 3rd.


Derby Countys Keith Branagan won the EPL Manager of the Month for winning 2 of their 6 league matches this month. I guess they factored in how impressive winning 2 EPL Matches with that talent level was. Pako Ayestaran of Liverpool came in 2nd, and Willie Donachie of West Brom came in 3rd.


Carlos Godoy won the Goal of the Month for his striker against Aston Villa on Feb 1.

Today we play at Sunderland in the 5th round FA Cup Match. Sunderland are led by midfielder Thomas Hassing Skjaerbaek who is their leading scorer with 12 goals and their leading assist man with 9 assists. Jose Ignacio Carreno is playing well on right wing. Alessandro Guidetti is playing well at striker. Carl Smith and Philippe Senderos have been just ok at centreback this year. Martin Nunez is their keeper, and he has been good in goal.

We are 4-6 favorites.

It's raining with temperatures in the 50's.

Alberto Flores suffered a groin strain in my reserve team's latest game. I wonder if he is playing too much between the reserve and u18 squad and if I should start limiting him to just reserve matches? In any case, he is out for 2 more weeks.

In 20 starts this year he has 30 goals, 10 assists, and 9 MoM awards!




After beating Sunderland, we will play at Bristol C on the 11th in the 6th round of the English FA Cup.

Adriano Trotta suffered a sprained ankle and will miss about a week.

My physio's recommend sending Flores to a specialist for physiotherapy. He will be out 3 to 4 weeks.

Today we travel to play the Wolves in an EPL Match. They are in 19th. We are in 1st by 11 points. They are led by jesus Rubio, a 23 year old strong Spanish midfielder. He is a good passer, but doesn't have many assists. Their leading striker is Antonio who has 6 goals in 26 starts. Leandro is second on the team with 5 goals despite only 5 starts and 13 relief appearances. Keith Brown is a decent left winger. Michele Sardo has been inconsistent in goal for them this year. He is averaging almost 2 goals/game conceded.

We are 4-6 favorites.

It's sunny with temperatures in the 60's.

Rough game for your keeper. Maybe he was paid off by your opponent.

We've drawn Porto in the Quarter Final of the Champions League. I'm quite happy with this draw. We'll play them on April 5th.


March 11, 2017 -

Today we travel to play Bristol C in the 6th round of the English FA Cup. Bristol C is 17th in the EPL and they are missing a few of their best players. Striker Tomi Petrescu is their best scorer but he is out injured. Left back Gary Shultis, Jr. is also out injured. They will be relying on centreback Justin Hoyte who has done well this year. James Carter is their #2 striker and he has done ok with 6 goals this year. Many is doing well in goal for them the last few weeks.


We are 1-4 favorites.

It's windy with temperatures in the 50's.

Post Match Info:

We are through to the Semi-Final of the FA Cup after that 4-0 win.


My AM, Antonio Alvarez has told me that he was very impressed with the team's performance tonight, and he feels my pre-match comments to the media (in which I guaranteed that we would win tonight) was well received by my team. He feels that Adriano reacted particularly well and was quite thrilled by the confidence I showed in the team.



Mar. 13, 2017 -

Barry Parker suffered a back strain today in practice and will miss 2-4 weeks


The FA Cup draw occured, and we will be traveling to play either Fulham or Liverpool in the Semi Final of the FA Cup.

Great read, I love when these dynasties get so far into the game. You're talking about Rooney's retirement, it's just fun. Kind of inspired me to start pecking at one of my own, keep it up!

Ok, I didn't get on the computer immediately or even very soon after getting back from dinner

Thanks

I'm hopeful in playing this dynasty for at least 15 or so more game years. I want to see if Flores ever becomes a great player. The thing that concerns me about him is that his first touch is low, but he has all of the other signs.

I figure the next version of FM will probably require a few patches before it is dynasty worthy, and I'll probably continue this dynasty (albeit at a slower pace) even after that happens. However, I really wish they made importing of careers possible from one version to the the other, but I realize that won't happen. Of course, I wouldn't want it to happen if it hurt the progress from version to version.

Anyway, glad you are enjoying the dynasty

You'd think it might be possible, as I know that the database framework for FM was built with a lot of things included that weren't really fully implemented in 2005. If the database structure itself is going to be fairly consistent, it would seem like some kind of roster export would be possible. But I agree completely, I'd rather they test the crap out of everything else than worry about making things backward compatible. With a program this complex I'm guessing the headaches are bad enough as it is, would be nice though.

Today we host Fulham in an EPL Match. We are in first by 11 points with 8 games to go. Fulham is currently in 7th place. They have a trio of dynamic scorers this year and a good defense. Collins John leads the team with 15 goals from his striker position. David has 14 goals from his striker position, and Nico has 13 goals from his striker position. They are using three strikers some matches with very nice effect. Their defense is led by Wayne Dunn and Alejandro Lozano who are both playing well. Michael Rensing is playing well in goal this year.


We are 4-6 favorites.

It's raining with temperatures in the 60's.

Media pundits have written an article suggesting that Lebohang Mokoena of Liverpool is likely to sweep the player of the year awards once the season is over.


World Cup Qualifying Round-up:

Adriano Trotta played well for Italy and had a goal and an assist in their 3-0 win over Bulgaria.

Alberto Flores didn't play well for Spain's U19 team in their 2-1 loss to Israel today.

Tim Howard played well in the USA's 4-2 win over Jamaica in the World Cup Qualifying Match. Freddy Adu had 3 goals and an assist in the match (to Mighel Jackson.)

The board is thrilled with my performance as manager.

Today we play at Porto in the first leg of the Champions League Quarterfinal. We are missing a few of our key players due to World Cup Qualifying matches! They are missing one of their strikers (their 3rd striker) due to injury. Tiago Maia is a 29 year old striker with good speed and good scoring ability, but he isn't that good. We should be able to contain him, and he is their leading scorer. Fernando Moreira is 3 years younger and worries me more. He is fast as well and he has a more well rounded game. We'll be watching him closely. Rui Sousa is a fast talented midfielder who mostly uses his superior physical abilities to outplay the opposition. Thiago is a good centreback who is also lethal on corner kicks as a target man. He is an excellent leaper. Rui Caeiro is a 21 year old keeper with good potential who is already fairly talented.


We are 4-5 favorites.

It's sunny with temperatures in the 60's.

Away on international duty: Cardozo, Cahaais, Adriano, Adraino (GK), Godoy.


GK: Howard
DL: Trotta
DC: Kompany
DC: Salva
DR: Boogaart
ML: Downing
MC: Parker
MC: Heller
MR: Ortega
SC: Rooney
SC: King

S1: Blanco
S2: Schmidt
S3: Schreurs
S4: Flores
S5: Miller
S6: Oswald
S7: Wright

6 minute mark: Downing passes into the box.. Rooney shoots.. the keeper blocks it.. King shoots the rebound.. a defender blocks it.. Parker shoots.. a defender blocks it and clears it.

8 minute mark: sousa shoots from 20 yards out.. hits the crossbar.. Howard clears the rebound.

14 minute mark: Alves dribbles past two of my men.. passes to Maia in the left side of the box.. he centers it to Pepe in the middle of the box.. he shoots.. lower right corner.. Howard is slow to get to it.. GOAL. Down 1-0.

26 minute mark: Howard stops a long shot from Maia.

35 minute mark: Parker steals the ball.. passes it to Rooney just inside the box.. he shoots immediately.. lower right corner.. it is just inside the post... GOAL!!!!! 1-1.



Halftime: 1-1 tie.




50 minute mark: Carlos passes to Pepe who is 30 yards out.. he shoots a powerful banana shot.. upper right corner.. Howard tries to get to it.. it's too fast.. he can't get there. GOAL. Down 2-1.

60 minute mark: Ortega gets a yellow card for tripping Pepe.

61 minute mark: Alves with a corner kick to the near post.. Pepe heads it.. upper left corner.. GOAL!!!! 3-1. Clearly, I should have been more worried about Pepe!

74 minute mark: Oswald on for Parker and Schreurs on for Ortega.

88 minute mark: Rooney takes a free kick from 25 yards out.. strong curving shot.. upper right corner.. the keeper dives.. blocks it.


Game over. 3-1 loss on the road.

We were outshot 12-6 (5-5 on target)

Pepe wins MoM, 10 for form, 20 of 25 passes, 0 of 1 tackles, 4 of 5 headers, 3 goals.

The 34 year old veteran Brazilian centreback/midfielder clearly still had something left!
