    Eternal Witcher's FM Thread Athletic-Bilbao-logo

    Mission- To conquer what can be conquered with Basque players. Will take some time but fuck that. The first season will be mediocre, in all likelihood. No big budget, no big signings and Ander still a season away, so this season will be just testing the waters. A top half finish should be the target.

    Tactics- No wingers, so the likes of Susueta have been sold to make way for non-existent signings.This is the transfer activity so far.
    Eternal Witcher's FM Thread 34Fs7J-itJ74TZduMDZ9

    So I will make due with what I have got. My best players are naturally the trio of Llorente, Muniain and Martinez. To best use them I am going with a 4312 system which focuses through the middle. So far, it has overcome Barcelona, 2-0. It has made my team difficult to beat, the worst being a 4-1 loss to Real Madrid. Llorente has begun to flourish as the target man, after five games without a goal. Injuries has been a problem, notably in midfield, but I always have players to call upon.

    Been injured, 4 games at 7.17, not bad.

    January window and I might have to hand out a few contracts as numerous clubs have already been linked with all my best players with the exception of Muniain. Liverpool, bless them, have made a 11.5 million bid for Martinez. I've put his asking price as high as possible, which is 26 million. Still not enough.

    Knocked out in the quarter final to Real Socialad or whatever it's called. Eternal Witcher's FM Thread 537999 Went up to fourth for a few games before an extended drought from both my strikers pushed me back down to sixth.

    Frankly, besides beating Barcelona, and coming within minutes of beating Real Madrid, it's been mediocre. Muniain needs to improve and stop going away to U-19 internationals all the time.

    I had the same problem with Chamberlain when I was at Carlisle, he went away on international duty but I never received any mail about it Mad
    Might have been because he was on loan though, anyway, good thread Eternal, I'll be following Smile

    Yeah, I'll keep this updated a bit more. Problem is, as I said, season's been mediocre. Despite getting sixth, I kept losing and drawing easy games.

    Schalke broke his release clause of 26 mil, but I gave him a new contract with a release clause of....30 mil. The stupid agent wouldn't go any higher.

    Back on track, and qualified for the Europa group stage beating MTK 4-1 and Omonoia 6-0 on aggregate. Llorente and Muniain both looking sharp, no notable signings besides Ander.

    My mission is going quite well, huge improvement so far over last season. Which wasn't too bad, finishing sixth. Ander and Iraola have been injured frequently, but it hasn't shown.

    After losing 2-0 on home turf, Bilbao face an impossible of qualifying for the next round. With the second leg at Lyon, and with a two goal deficit, it looks set to be a miserable end to a European campaign which promised so much. The manager is reported to be distraught, and blames the defeat on FM being scripted. These allegations could not be proven.

    Hold me. Crying or Very sad
