You sound like Lawnmo  ;D

Ive got the cash but not many players out there . Getting me kids as asual and early / mid 20's players too. May have to go semi fossel hunting at somepoint.

Can we agree on that if a player is on the transfer list fir a set price the manager cant bump the price up if he''s offered that price.

Wow, I really thought I was bound to lose that after forgetting to switch my side round for the cup. Glad to escape with a draw and keep myself in contention. Not much room for slip ups now.

On to a 13 game unbeaten streak now, which is just mad!

Can’t believe I got relegated by 1 point off two teams. Should definitely get the sack! Ah well, time to regroup and rebuild.

What an incredible final gameweek. Dresden scrape survival by the skin of our teeth, big ask going into the final game knowing we needed a win against top of the league Sporting to stay up. We never seem to beat them, played around a bit with my tactics and it worked ;D  Mane & new boy Reus getting the job done.

Can’t believe I got relegated by 1 point off two teams. Should definitely get the sack! Ah well, time to regroup and rebuild.

Unlucky dude, incredible that Sparta have been relegated while only being 4 points off top spot. You'll be back before you know it.

And a massive congrats to Card Cheat! Made some big moves to build a title-winning squad and it's paid off. Enjoy!

Jordi Alba is back in the building  8)



Now we just need Donnarumma to finally get his rise to 90 and Dresden will finally have an entire starting XI of 90+ players. Still looking to make another move or two over the off-season, Eriksen is available for the right price.

Good luck all.

Dresden's first team is looking stronger than it did last season after the additions of Reus & Alba. Hoping they can propel us to a title challenge. We started brilliantly last season but really tailed off towards the end.

3rd for Deportivo in the league and Cup runners up. Slightly disappointed.

What a day of trading! I've had a few splurges during my time on SM but nothing quite like that before  :D

Might still look to make one more trade as we've left ourselves a bit short up front. Otherwise we'll have to go "full Sarri" and use Hazard & Reus as our strikers. Still got some top young talent to offer, including Tielemans, Todibo & Reiss Nelson if anyone's interested. Might even be open to trading Keita, bit wary of doing that though as I'm convinced he's going to be an absolute star for us.

Taken a bit of a gamble trading Eriksen away as well. Maybe should've kept him if we want to challenge for the title next season. Youth has always played an important role at Dresden though, so I wanted to bring in a top talent in Havertz after trading away both De Ligt & De Jong. Think Kessie has a big future ahead of him as well, the hype has died down a little but he's really impressed me every time I've watched him play.

I was on one. I told LM the other day when he trued to do a transfer. Iam getting dealt blow after blow at the minute. I really cant get my head around it all. Every week I get something new to deal with. Its madness. Just a bit sensitive mate and the last of my worries is SM.
