Thanks! I'm pleased first of all that we achieved promotion and the FA Cup was a bonus, so to win that was a nice feeling. Haha I have no idea how they ended up in the Europa. Juventus were there too which is also a surprise. I'll try to catch up on your videos when I get a chance. Also welcome to the thread!

They gave me a fairly decent budget which will be revealed in the next update. I'm not sure how much other teams around me have so I don't know if it's low or average. I'll definitely give some feedback for ya.

Yeah we're all very friendly just stay away from Simp, he's a bit (joking!)

EPISODE#3 - FIFTH TIME UNLUCKY! #AVFC




THE VILLAN'S REPORT


With the start of the Barclays Premier League appoaching, Aston Villa look to be in for a tough season, with departures to Fabian Delph (Manchester City) & key striker Christian Benteke (Liverpool), Aston Villa have to find an avenue to score this season, and that responsibility has been placed on fan favourite Gabrielle Agbonlahor, aswell as 23 year old Jordan Ayew.

After starting his career in France, Ayew joins Aston Villa after playing on high profile teams such as Marsielle, FC Sochaux, and arriving from FC Lorient for £7,000,000 Ayew has big shoes to fill in Benteke's absence.
Ayew has not had a great start to his campaign at Aston Villa looking lost in the forward structure in his limited game time and getting injured against Nacional in the Pre-Season tournament in Portugal keeping him out for the remainder of the tournament.

With the squad touching back down in England this past week after a challenging tournament in Portugal, Ayew stated "I am ready to go for Bournemouth, Aquilina is going to be a great manager, he is really helping me improve my game and grow as a player, we know we have a tough year ahead, but we are ready to work hard".
With just 3 weeks to go until kick off for the Premier League, we can only hope too see what the Ghanian is capable of in the upcoming matches against a very telling August fixture.

End of Season Update


League Match 40
Exeter City - Newport County (0-1)
McKay 25' (Twunasi)

Four-game winning streak dating back to the end of March. It wasn't easy but McKay, who has really been in groove since soon after joining mid-season, gave the Exiles the only goal they would need to go with their stingy defense to allow Newport to keep pace with the top three in the table.

League Match 41
Newport County - Wycombe (1-2)
McKay 14' (Elito)
Ugwu 37'
McGinn 90' (pen)

That hurt. That hurt A LOT. Wycombe played Marccelino's squad very evenly but the game deserved to end with a draw, not with an unnecessary penalty kick resulting from an unintentional handball in the box. Sigh.

League Match 42
York City - Newport County (0-2)
Arteaga 77' (Gardner)
Arteaga 89'


The Exiles get right back on a winning groove thanks not just to the Venezuelan on loan from Palermo, but to an outstanding performance from their goalkeeper Joe Day who earned Man of the Match honors.

League Match 43
Newport County - AFC Wimbledon (2-1)
Gardner 16' (Elito)
Arteaga 48'

Elliot 82'

Wimbledon may be near the bottom fourth of the table but they had beaten the Exiles earlier on this season and once again played them tough, making them sweat till the end. However, Newport's defense was able to seal the deal to keep Marccelino and his army very close to putting themselves in the top-3 in the standings.

League Match 44
Barnet - Newport County (1-2)
Arteaga 40'
Elito 45'

Lisbie 74'

They've done it. The Exiles move into 3rd place in the table thanks to another gritty win to go with a draw from Oxford United and Newport will control their own destiny with just two games left!

League Match 45
Newport County - Mansfield Town (1-1)
Green 30' (pen)
McKay 61' (Byrne)

The Exiles missed an opportunity to clinch promotion to League One after only managing a draw against Mansfield Town, who left everything on the pitch as they try to clinch a playoff spot. The home team created more opportunities but in the end it wasn't enough. Fortunately for them Oxford also managed just one point so Newport will go into the season finale knowing that a win will get them through.

League Match 46
Hartlepool - Newport County (2-2)
McKay 14' (Gardner)
Featherstone 23'
Arteaga 56' (Byrne)
Bingham 71'

Oh, THE HORROR. Bottom-side Hartlepool seemed determined to spoil the party and they accomplished their goal, keeping Newport to a draw which paired with a win by Oxford United keeps them outside direct promotion to League One and into the League Two playoffs. Heart-breaking. The Exiles threw the kitchen sink at the home team, edging them in possession (57%) and vastly out-shooting them with 11 shots (7 on goal) but their defense, which had earned them so many points this season, was unable to protect two leads and Marccelino will now need to get his squad ready for a playoff series against 7th place Stevenage.




League 2 Playoffs - Semi Final, 1st Leg
Stevenage - Newport County(0-2)
Day 40' (OG)
Byrne 79' (Twunasi)


Nerves clearly affected both teams in the first half but the Exiles were able to shake it sooner, and in the 40th a minute a shot from Elito was deflected by Boro goalkeeper Chris Day and Newport took a lead into the half. From there they were able to keep the composure in the 2nd half even after losing edge in possession and taking less shots than the home squad, but were the more opportunistic side and sealed a 1st leg win with a goal from Byrne inside the last 15 minutes.

League 2 Playoffs - Semi Final, 2nd Leg
Newport County - Stevenage (3-3, 5-3 agg)
Byrne 2' (Burke)
Akinyemi 9'
Day 17' (OG)
Byrne 23' (Gardner)

McAllister 45'
Kennedy 79' (pen)

The Exiles sealed their ticket to the playoffs final after a wild one at Rodney Parade. A good number of fans weren't even on their seats yet when Byrne got them home team on the board after just two minutes but before the 10-minute mark the game had been equalized by Akinyemi. It may take a while for Boro goalkeeper to get past this series, and there are questions as to whether he will retire after this game, but he was once again tagged with an own goal, although to be fair the goal should had been awarded to McKay outright as his shot seemed to be on goal before it was deflected by the goalkeeper. Undoubtedly Day was distraught as soon after Byrne scored a 3rd goal for the home side, creating what would be an insurmountable lead. Credit goes to Stevenage as they never gave up, closing the gap before the half and leveling the score with just over 10 minutes left, but the two-goal difference from the first leg ended up getting Newport through.

Review: To be honest this update comes a while after I actually got done with this part of the career so I'm kinda over it by now. Hell of a ride. There are some positives that come out of this so I'll try to focus on those. For one, we should be heavy favorite for promotion next season so it'll be fun to see if we can play at that level. For two, we get to improve our team even more before we start our climb up the Football League so that's not such a bad team. I look forward to performing better in the COC and JPT after losing in the first round in both of those this season. I think I'd really like to win the JPT, establish that Newport County will be a force once we get to League One.

Can't just focus on our failures to achieve promotion and dismiss the great season we had as an unit and individually. The acquisition of Gardner last summer paid off, he was our top player in nearly every game and I was glad to see he was recognized as Player of the Year. Joe Day surprised me, he was a great goalkeeper and may be able to hold down that spot for at least another year. Manuel Arteaga took a while to get going but once he did he was a force for us and earned that golden boot. He may not be able to repeat that feat next season, his last under loan for us, because Jack McKay is looking like a real baller that may contend for that scoring title in '16-'17. I look forward to the summer transfer window and the upcoming season.

We also have some promising lads in the academy. Adam Adeyemi had a very good year scouting for us and before the season ended we hired a second scout, Kimmo Rasanen from Finland. He's being asked to get started in his homeland. This is what the youth squad looks like at season's end:

- Bondz Moore (LW, 60 OVR, 81-87 POT): Our top remaining prospect after one season, Moore has higher upside than Jack Giles who performed admirably off the bench of us in the second half of the season. We're expecting growth from his current frame (5'0", 134lbs) and at just 16 years old this Englishman offer a lot of talent. He doesn't have top-end speed at the moment but his first step is deadly and he's very agile.
- Patrick Miller (ST, 53 OVR, 75-89): The younger of the Miller brothers turned 17 years old by season's end and the Irishman has grown to 5'9" and 158lbs, which is very good size for his position. Coaches describe him as "technically gifted" and he brings good speed to the position.
- Ben Potter (LM, 57 OVR, 78-84): This 16-year old from England looks similar to Moore but prefers to play a bit closer to midfield although he offers a bit more speed.
- Cristiano Dall'Oglio (CDM, 52 OVR, 77-83): This 16-year old defensive-minded midfielder from Italy flashes leadership skills at a very young age. Has a promising future.
- Mark Miller (RM, 50 OVR, 71-85): The older Miller brother is a 17-year old Irishman standing at 6-feet tall and 181lbs. He brings a lot of physicality but is still rough around the edges (although very agile) and needs to work hard in the academy.
- Patrick Brennan (LW, 45 OVR, 63-83)*: This 15-year old from Ireland is the most recent addition to the academy. Adeyemi saw enough flashes from him to highly recommend him and we hope to be able to help improve his game since he's still very young.
*recent addition

Taylor Nelson was promoted to the senior squad near the end of the season at his request. Unfortunately 16-year old Danilo Sabbione (CM, 50 OVR, 74-82) abruptly left the academy without much explanation. We wish the Italian the best.

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?


Ha Ho He


January 2018


Transfers Out


Maximilian Mittelstädt, 64 Ovr, Left Back,
€500,000 to 1. FC Heidenheim

Even though the left back position is lacking proper depth, the 21-year-old man was never going to break into the starting eleven or to the bench with his low potential. We simply didn't need him in the team.


Valentin Stocker, 78 Ovr, Attacking Midfielder, €8,000,000 to FC Augsburg

We sold him for two reasons: he wasn't useful for the squad, making only two pre-season appearances, and he didn't want to accept a contract extension. Augsburg were ready to pay our eight million valuation for Stocker.


Transfers In



Yussuf Poulsen

75 Ovr, Striker, 23 Years Old, Denmark

€6,000,000

The only signing Hertha BSC completed in the transfer window was signing the young Danish striker Yusuf Poulsen from the most hated German football club, Red Bull Leipzig. The 23-year-old represented The Red Bulls for five years since 2013, netting a solid amount of goals in the two top German leagues. Poulsen, who combines well pace, finishing and dribbling, could be a long-term replacement for the Herthaner's 32-year-old Salomon Kalou.

***


Hertha BSC 3 - 1 VfB Stuttgart
Kalou 51', 89', Geis 79'
Gentner 32'



1899 Hoffenheim 1 - 1 Hertha BSC
Pratto 31'
Kalou 50'


Bundesliga Table

1. Bayern München, 46 pts
2. Borussia Dortmund, 42 pts
3. Hertha BSC, 37 pts
4. VfL Wolfsburg, 36 pts
5. Bayer Leverkusen, 31 pts
6. FC Schalke 04, 30 pts
-----------------------------------------------------
16.Werder Bremen, 15 pts
17. RB Leipzig, 14 pts
18. Eintracht Frankfurt, 14 pts


Starting XI
As of February 1st




That is it, the 'rückrunde', or second round/return round, has officially started. We managed to pick four points from two games and remain in third, six points in front of fifth-placed Bayer Leverkusen. Our objective for the season is still to finish in the top four and secure a Champions League spot. Challenging for the league title is out of our reach and it will stay like that for at least a couple of seasons more.

The transfer window could be considered to be a slight failure because we failed to sell Stefan Aigner and Yunus Malli. There were several offers for both of them and we accepted a few, but all of the deals fell through as the players preferred to rotten in our reserves. Fortunately, we managed to sell Stocker and we signed Yusuf Poulsen to take Kalou's spot in the future.

February will be a tough month for us with seven games, including a DFB Pokal quarter final against Borussia Mönchengladbach, the first leg of our Champions League round of 16 clash with Saint-Etienne and league games against top sides Wolfsburg and Borussia Mönchengladbach.



Thank you for reading this post! I hope you have enjoyed it! Any feedback or suggestions will be appreciated!
