RandomGuy. Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 March 2032/33 Really need a striker to back up Henrique, if he plays poorly I've no alternative. Celtic, fortunately, drop points in the games they had over us. Split is going to be absolutely massive, especially the head to head with Celtic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) Final fixtures 2032/33 A total collapse late on... Was it enough to see us lose the title? Spoiler No, just. We won the league after the Hearts result, so my youth side pretty much got the last three games to see how they stepped up. None really helped their cause. First time neither Celtic or Rangers have finished in the top two since 1964/65. On to a Final against Hibs, and the chance of a treble.

RandomGuy. Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 Scottish Cup Final 2032/33 Two down after 20 minutes, all hope was lost. Some turnaround. Game was lost tbh, then for some reason they took Cowie off and played strikerless, and we piled the pressure on and got an equaliser. Penalties finished 9-8. That means... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) Treble winning squad review 2032/33 Goalkeepers Aye. Defenders Tomori will go, but don't expect to change anything else. PSG are interested in Galvez so he might leave, but I've got enough cover. Midfielders Meunier won't be returning, Clark played well but didn't actually contribute, Heath doing more while playing less is a worry long term. Chinese teams are desperate to sign Calik, and I've got them close to £30m, which I'd accept. Chelsea and Man U after Jones, so he might go aswell, hopefully get a bidding war and over £60m (hes valued at £40m). Really pleased with Naplatanovs first season. Strikers Henrique will stay unless I get over £70m, the other two will go. Need a massive improvement. Loan Players Curic should be starting LB next season. Ibrahim and Wilson are next in line if/when Galvez and Jones leave. Either as starters or back up. Johnson will probably be loaned out again, and Sevinc will probably be sold. Black will be back up central and on the left wing. Edited August 2, 2020 by RandomGuy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) Summer Transfers 2033/34 Out We made a £20m loss last season, so this year was always going to see a big sale. The signing of Falsone bumped Bruno down to 3rd choice CB anyway, so delighted with that deal. Curic I wanted as my starting LB. but PSG unsettled him. He spent months moaning and refusing to extend his deal, so off he goes. Rest are just kids on loan and duds freed. One deal on deadline day was too late to be completed, but will go through in January. Long serving played, but hes about to turn 31 and is starting to wane. Last chance of a large fee so I took it. In Been after Garcia for a while, hes Mejias replacement. Better in every aspect except for finishing, but has years to develop as hes only 22. Essam was a player I signed 2 years ago but he couldn't join until he turned 18. Looks class and the price is now a bargain. Thorogood a back up LB after Curic left on deadline day. Keita my next back up striker for Henrique. Hopefully better than last years attempt, who didn't score a league goal. We also have a transfer agreed for January... 18yo Brazilian LB. Marmols replacement after Curic chucked it. Wanted him this window but couldn't agree a fee, so he signs a PCA instead.

RandomGuy. Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) Summer Transfers 2033/34 In Allan Kardeck - Free (joins in January) Spoiler Mammoth potential, IMO. Work on his crossing and physicals, which should develop with age, and he should be a bargain. Kitan Thorogood - Loan Spoiler Nothing more than back up for 6 months until Kardeck comes in. Odilon Keita - Loan Spoiler Next attempt as someone who can come in and boot Henrique up the arse. Big b*****d who can't header, so see how that goes. Hossam Essam - £300k Spoiler Was a 16yo valued at £20k when I agreed to pay £300k for him. A total punt as my Chief Scout loved him and he was already technically strong. Looks decent. Ferran Garcia - £9.5m Spoiler Mejias replacement, so big boots to fill. Will focus on his finishing as that could hold him back, but the rest is quality.

RandomGuy. Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 St Johnstone squad 2033/34 2* = Premiership standard player. 3.5* = Leading Premiership player. 4* = Star player Goalkeepers No question about the first choice here. Defenders Probably need a new RB soon, but Charlesworth is still up to it. Ibrahim is now 3rd choice, so hopefully can get him regular game time. Curic leaving means Marmol will be first choice for one more season, I won't be rushing Kardec in once he joins in January. Midfielders Depth + Quality. Johnston and Wilson can play DM, Essam can play RM, and Black can play LM, so plenty of cover in every role. Strikers Wanted another but couldn't find anyone that was worth a punt, so we go with this. Jones can play up top if needed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 August 2033/34 Started, and ended, well. The middle was not so good. Celtic. They appointed Alex Neil for some reason, so they deserve to be relegated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 Happy with my CL group, should be qualifying from that. Mainz have never finished above 7th in this save then randomly popped up with a 2nd place finish. Their squad was then ripped apart this Summer. Spare a thought for Hibernian though, into the CL for the first ever time almost entirely down to an unreal season from 28yo Darren Cowie. Cowie scored 30 goals in the league, the first time hes scored over 10 in a Premiership season before, and this season he seems to have reverted to type. Ooft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 7, 2020 Author Share Posted August 7, 2020 Yes. That is the same Obeng we had last season, the one who didn't score all season and regularly missed sitters. I'm stunned this happened tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 7, 2020 Author Share Posted August 7, 2020 September 2033/34 Henrique and Keita starting have a real battle to be my starting striker. Nice to see Garcia get an early goal too. We've started rotating heavily now, as I need the younger players to be playing more. Entire second string played against St Mirren. Aberdeen might be this seasons challengers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 8, 2020 Author Share Posted August 8, 2020 October 2033/34 Man U just far too good, and then almost embarrassed against Championship Partick in the Cup. Aberdeens title challenge is already over, while Hibs look unlikely to match their 2nd place finish from last season. Me v the OF now. Loss v Mainz makes it look bad, and they'll likely be 6 above me after I play Man U. We host them at McDiarmid on the Final day which will be a decider. I'll have to beat them by two goals to qualify. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 8, 2020 Author Share Posted August 8, 2020 November 2033/34 Big players step up. Fringe players got the Motherwell game but didn't step up. Draw with Man U is huge for the CL progression, win against Celtic is huge for the title. Drop points but still 6pts clear of 2nd, have to be happy with that. We go through with a win at home to Mainz, we lost away and its decided on head to head, so that point against Man U is huge. Poor old Hibs had a bad time of it though, their final game is away to Real Madrid, so that'll be their journey over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
