after promotion from division 4 myself and the chairman set ourselves a target of a top 10 finish. nothing can be taken for granted within top 100 with so many good teams and managers.
my first thought was I need some new players ahead of new season in division 3. so the list of names was sent to the chairman. they did a great job as the experienced players I needed soon followed with mascherano Douglas costa and manduzic soon following. some younger players like Caldara of course joined to keep the average age of the team down.
the season started very indifferent with defeats against Espanyol and psv. with both games ending 1-0. things needed to change from the team and that’s what happened as we went on a 16 game unbeaten run in the league. that run came to a sudden halt as Lazio and newly appointed warren gave us a 1-0 defeat.after that we were given another 1-0 defeat by psv yet again . since that defeat we have steadied the ship with 5 game unbeaten streak. can this be another big unbeaten run until the end of the season.
no transfers were planned and even tho a few opportunities were put our way most never got to advanced but one which ended up going through was with leo paredes leaving to Chelsea. Christian pavon and alverez joined. 2 young players who I had wanted for a while but never had the assets to do it.
with 10 games to go we have 1 game left against a promotion chasing side. the rest are 10 or lower so consistency is the key now with psv hamburger and Espanyol all playing each other in the next week..lots of twists and turns are expected but I hope the lads can grind out the results we need to secure back to back promotions.
rumours are making there way around that manager Nathan is potentially looking to move on at the end of the season if the right job comes along.
