Aachen
Well I finished off last season with some good results. We won 3 or 4 games, lost 1 and drew another 3 or so. We ended up 5th in the league after being 10th when I came into the side. On a positive note we played my old team Oberhausen and won the game and knocked them out of promotion contention!

In the off season I put wheeling and dealing skills to work and picked up 6 new players. 2 strikers, 1 midfielder, 1 defensive midfielder and 2 defensive backs. With my current tactics I use 3 strikers and the 2 new strikers should create a lot more chances up front. I also sold a few ageing players and some trouble makers that I just didnt like.

The new season is just underway and I have taken a risk and brought up a 17 year old out of my youth system who has the potential to be a star player in the future. Hopefully he will make an impact for the side. He is currently being mentored by the best midfielder in the squad who he will playing alongside each week so the chances are he will succeed.

We are predicted to finish 3rd this season but I reckon we can win the whole fucking thing this year.

Italy
Only 3 games played in the last 4 months. A 6-0 win over the Faroe Islands in world cup qualifying and a 2-2 draw with Sweden still sees us tied for first place but with 25 goals for us and 2 goals conceded. We also had a friendly against Spain which we won 2-0.
