My new team - Udinese

Today I'm going to introduce to you my new football club - Udinese. I'm managing the 'Zebrette' - which translates as the Zebras! This post will be all about the new team.

Udinese Info:
Udinese's main Serie A rival is Fiorentina, so we have to beat them this season.


The media prediction is 7th, so we need to get into the top half at least.

I have chosen this as my prediction, and have been given a generous transfer budget of £20 Million!



Assistant Advice:

At the start of the season my assistant manager provided a team report for me:

It suggests a new right-back and goalkeeper, so I will be looking at Darijo Srna certainly.

Press Conference:
It was interesting to answer the questions in this new Italian job. I informed the rest of the league about our attacking style!

I think the Udinese players were pleased with this; several reacted in this way:

So, that was your introduction to Udinese. Next time, I'll have played the first few games of the new season and tell you about them, as well team ratings so far and transfers!

Sad end to Villa game!

Due to unavoidable circumstances, the Aston Villa game has come to an abrupt end. When I loaded up the game, it refused to load! The game also had some other problems.

While I have now fixed this this game is over.
I will be starting a new game, so if you have any ideas please post underneath:

Final squad check before game vs. West Ham!

So, we have prepared, analysed and struggled through to the first game of the domestic season.
We will be playing West Ham United, and home advantage makes us slight favorites!
Looking at the squad screen, you can see the players have a high average rating from the friendlies, with Young, Cuellar and Palombo particularly impressing.

Victory over Siroki Brijeg!

Something of a walkthrough, 4-0, so we can rest easy in the second leg!

Friendlies and euro

Very successful in the friendlies, now we prepare for our Euro Cup Second Qualifying Round match and we should win.

Villa - Hibs 2nd Leg!

A much improved performance defensively, and once again players like Young, Carew and Palombo were fantastic. We can now look forward to the rest of the friendlies, the EURO Cup and the start of the new season.

Friendlies results

As you can see, the first two friendlies were succesful although again we had a problem conceding goals against Werder Bremen.
Just preparing now for my second leg against Hibs!
