oneteaminglasgow Posted July 24, 2020 Author Share Posted July 24, 2020 February 2040/41 Pretty poor month, although I suppose I beat the one team below us and lost to the two above us. Still, not great. Fallen down the table a bit, but we still have to play Spurs and Chelsea so still in our hand somewhat. I think we can safely assume that Birmingham will be going down - both their wins were against Derby, who are likely to be joining them going down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 24, 2020 Author Share Posted July 24, 2020 March 2040/41 We absolutely fucked it against Villa - coasting and we gave away two goals from nothing. Had to rescue the draw late on. Rest of the month was good, and then we got pumped by Liverpool. Was a bit unfortunate that. Well, we're still in 9th, but we've made up points on the European spots. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 24, 2020 Author Share Posted July 24, 2020 April 2040/41 Hit form at exactly the right time. The win against Chelsea was especially huge. Disappointed to end the month with a loss to Man United, but they're almost certainly going to win the league. In pole position for the Europa League spot (depending on the FA Cup), and we face Bournemouth, Leicester and Watford. All in our hands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 24, 2020 Author Share Posted July 24, 2020 May 2040/41 A really fucking weird month. Started with an absolute shitfest against Bournemouth - we should have lost, but held on for a point. I have no idea what happened against Leicester. Everytime we bothered to go up the park we scored, it was absolutely bizarre. Must have used up our decent play in that game, because we were pish against Watford to finish the season off. It was enough in the end. We'll be playing in Europe next season. Good laugh seeing Spurs, Chelsea and Arsenal all miss out. Still 23 points behind the winners, but we've made a big step forward this season. Need to work on my defence for next season - we had comfortably the worst among the top 10. Attack is looking in pretty decent shape though... No bad for a 20 year old. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 25, 2020 Author Share Posted July 25, 2020 Transfer Window 2041/42 Didn't really have any utter dross kicking about the squad anymore, so just put a few of the younger players who won't play for me out on loan. I did agree a deal to sell my third chocie goalkeeper, because he kicked up a fuss about me signing a new goalkeeper, but he's not leaving until January for some reason. Not as busy as I'd have liked, but very pleased with the 3 signings I have made. Couldn't find enough quality in the areas I wanted. First up, Muhammed Karatas on a free transfer after leaving Schalke - the guy's won the world cup... He's a left back, and will be first choice for me this season. He's only 28 as well, so still got a few years left in him. Spoiler My next player was also cheap, Pallumb Agnolli from Albanian club Partizani Tirana. Centre half, he'll challenge for the starting spot and provide cover. Good dealfor him. Spoiler Final signing is Maximilliano Schmidt, a goalkeeper. He's one of the hunners of Argentinian regens who also have Italian nationality, so was able to get round the work permit thing which would have scuppered it. He'll be first choice goalkeeper for me, and looks a good upgrade on King. Again, got a pretty good deal on him. Spoiler 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 25, 2020 Author Share Posted July 25, 2020 August 2041/42 Just like last season, a brilliant start. We completely outplayed Arsenal and Villa. We had about 6 first team players out injured against Tottenham, so was delighted to escape with a draw from that one. All going well so far. I went straight into the group stages of the Europa League, and our draw is as follows... We should be making it through that. Will also see me face an old club for the first time since the Aberystwyth days when I play Livi - they've come 5th then 4th in the seasons since I left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 25, 2020 Author Share Posted July 25, 2020 September 2041/42 The good form keeps going. Turns out that Marseille aren't up to much. Man City were very good, and we were lucky to get a point there, but the rest of it was a breeze. Still going well. Only one game in, but I'd thought Marseille would be the best of the other 3 so pumping them is a good sign. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 26, 2020 Author Share Posted July 26, 2020 October 2041/42 Pretty poor month, to be honest. First two games were fine, but that Cardiff result was really, really bad. Losing to Everton was expected - at least europe and the cup game went pretty well, even if we did need a last minute winner at Livi. Slipped down the table a bit - I don't think we're quite ready for a proper title challenge this season. We can't seem to get a win over the top few clubs from last season, which I think will cost us if we drop more points against shite like Cardiff. At least this is more or less in the bag. Another win and we're through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 26, 2020 Author Share Posted July 26, 2020 November 2041/42 Another pretty average month. Draws against Bournemouth and Charlton really aren't good enough if we want to push up the league, but good to get back on track with the win against Southampton. Europe went very well though. Game in hand so we can go up to 4th if we win that. Absolutely skooshed this. One more game, but we've already topped the group. Livi play Marseille to see who will come second. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 December 2041/42 Month went very nicely - particularly the start of it. Great to get a win over Liverpool, which marks the first time (I think) we've managed to beat any of the teams that finished ahead of us last season so far. We struggled badly against Swansea, which was very poor as they're fucking shite. Also beat Hull to see us through to the semi final of the League Cup - where we'll play Man United. No draw as of yet for the Europa League, as we skip the first knockout round. I'd quite like to win that. Good month sees us back in the fight at the very top of the table. If we can hang on around here and get into the Champions League, that'll be a huge success. Just for confirmation, topped the group with ease. Livi beat Marseille to get through alongside us. Couple of awards for David Campbell. He's legitimately one of the best strikers in the game at the minute, which is lovely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 January 2041/42 Terrible result in the FA Cup aside, this was an acceptable month. Got into my first final with Brentford by beating Man United - second leg in particular was satisfying, let them have the ball and hit them on the break twice. Delightful. We'll be facing Southampton. Draws are doing us in - significantly more than anyone else in the division. Still, only 3 points off top, and we could do it if we can start finishing games off... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 February 2041/42 Absolute nonsense against Arsenal, but we more than made up for it in the next two games. 6 points off the top with11 games to go, so it'll be tough. Good chance we can stay in the Champions League spots though. Benfica in the Europa League. Tough draw, but think we should get through. Up next - the League Cup Final. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 League Cup Final 2041/42 League Cup final up next, and we're playing Southampton - who are hovering just above the relegation spots in the Premiership. We should be beating them, and with it, taking my first bit of silverware in England... Spoiler Incredibly easy match. They didn't have a single chance, and, while we only had a couple, we were completely dominant throughout. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oneteaminglasgow Posted July 31, 2020 Author Share Posted July 31, 2020 (edited) March 2041/42 Good month, although we completely chucked it against Wolves which was pretty unacceptable. Couple of solid wins in the league, and through in Europe though, so happy enough. If Man United slip up, we've got a chance... But there's a fair few teams around us as well, so it'll be very tough. And in Europe... A team we've lost and drawn with this season. Sakes. Edited July 31, 2020 by oneteaminglasgow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted August 1, 2020 Author Share Posted August 1, 2020 April 2041/42 We've hit form at exactly the right time. Getting through against Everton was great, and we've won every league game so can't really ask for more than that. Man United have drawn one of their games this month, so we're now within 2 points. Their goal difference means that we probably need them to lose at least one game, and win all of ours, but there's a small chance. We're all but guaranteed to be in the Champions League next season though, so that's nice. Unfortunately, they're playing Wolves, Southampton and Swansea - so unless Wolves can pull it out the bag, I'd expect they'll win all 3 comfortably. We play Villa, Man City and Chelsea. We also have the Europa League semi final to play.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted August 1, 2020 Author Share Posted August 1, 2020 Europa League Semi Final, First Leg Spoiler That didn't go to plan. We were completely outplayed for 77 minutes, and then we did pretty well for the last 13 after our goal, which came from nowhere.. That goal was very important - gives us a chance, but they're still definitely in control. Celtic beat Valencia 3-0 in the other semi, so likely that they'll be in the final... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 Matchday 36, 2041/42 Spoiler Good result for us. We only created 2 proper chances, but David Campbell scored both of them, while Villa didn't really threaten much. That means that... We're finishing 3rd at worst. We're 4 points ahead of Liverpool, in 3rd, so almost certain to be top 2 unless we absolutely f**k it. Spoiler AN OPENING APPEARS. Was hoping they'd lose, but the draw opens the door very slightly. Unfortunately, their final 2 are currently 18th and 20th in the league, while we face 4th and 6th... A ten goal swing in our favour seems unlikely, so we're still needing them to drop more points and pick up maximum points ourselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 Europa League Semi Final, Second Leg Spoiler f**k me, that went well. One of those games where everything just goes right. Campbell doing his thing was pretty swell, and they didn't turn up. Onto the final... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
