Season 15, like the Beatles once said, we're back in the UCL. We were tasked with Finishing Mid-Table, reaching the Quarter-Final of the DfB Pokal, attempting to be competitive in the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Super Cup is just a distraction. All of this with a £5m p/w wage budget and £451m warchest.
Team on 1 July looks like this
Finally, we are sorted with our DNA. Now going forward, we need to keep it at this level.

Doesn't matter, I've given up, it's literally impossible to do anything on this game anymore.
It really isn't. I've taken a 3.Liga side to Europa League champions in 14 seasons. I use a HB and a SV in the DM strata, because it means there is enough balance in the side with attack and defence.

I don't like that midfield at all.
You need to think about transitions. Let's say you lose possession high up the pitch. You've lost the MEZ and CAR and their entire counter faces....a DLP on Defend in the middle.
I would look at your centre of the three being a BWM on defend and a CM on Support on the left and a CM on Attack on the right. Because then you have less forward movement in the middle and the AM is still supplying the forward lines

Now we're over 5 years into the game and this save is all about trying to get the cream of youth into the team, we'll start to look at my historical youth intakes. At the end of every season, I'll go back and look at an intake from my time here at Viktoria Berlin and see if the key prospects worked out? Or if they flamed out, never to be seen again.
So, for this edition, let's look at the Class of 2030 intake
We'll concentrate on the Top 3 DNA prospects, unless there are any notable deviations. The key prospects in this intake were goalkeeper Aaron Wilske, attacking midfielder Özcan Öcal and striker Momčilo Radosavljević
Aaron Wilske
Then. 15 years old, FC Viktoria 1899 Berlin
Now. 20 years old, FC Viktoria 1899 Berlin
Aaron was a member of our goalie conveyor belt and I had high hopes for him to sit behind Mikki van Sas for years to develop. In his time at the club, he has made 90 appearances in all competitions, keeping 38 clean sheets for an average rating of 7.07. During this time, he spent the 2031/32 season on loan at KFC Uerdingen 05 making 33 appearances and keeping 8 clean sheets for an average rating of 6.92.
Aaron has also made 18 appearances for Germany's U-21 side. In terms of silverware, he has a DfB Pokal & UEFA Europa League winners medal and was ranked #1 in the 2034 NxGen Awards.
Özcan Öcal
Then. 15 years old, FC Viktoria 1899 Berlin
Now. 20 years old, FC Viktoria 1899 Berlin
Özcan came into the acadamy as an attacking midfielder, but we wanted him to be a Segundo Volante, so put him into training for that role. So far, he's made 62 appearances in all competitions for the club, scoring 7 goals and assisting 6 times for an average rating of 7.02. He also spent the 2031/32 season on loan at KFC Uerdingen 05, making 34 appearances, scoring 1 goal and assisting once for an average rating of 6.69. He then spent the 2032/33 season on loan at 2.Bundesliga side FC Ingolstadt 04, making 30 appearances, scoring 1 goal and making 6 assists, for an average rating of 6.91
Özcan has also made one appearance for Turkey. In terms of silverware, he has a DfB Pokal & UEFA Europa League winners medal.
Momčilo Radosavljević
Then. 15 years old, FC Viktoria 1899 Berlin
Now. 20 years old, FC Viktoria 1899 Berlin
Momčilo came in as a striker, but we saw his potential to sit in the hole in the AM strata. In his time at the club, he has made 16 appearances in all competitions, scoring 2 goals and assisting once for an average rating of 6.97. During this time, he spent both the 2031/32 & 2032/33 seasons on loan at KFC Uerdingen 05 making 55 appearances, scoring 32 goals and assisting 15 times for an average rating of 7.47.
Momčilo has also made appearances for Germany's U-23 side. In terms of silverware, he has a UEFA Europa League winners medal.
We also have a non-Top 3 prospect making waves in the first team, our first one.
Cedric Hummels
Now. 20 years old, FC Viktoria 1899 Berlin
Cedric has blossomed in the academy. In his time at the club, he has made 39 appearances in all competitions, scoring 3 goals for an average rating of 7.02. During this time, he spent the 2033/34 season on loan at KFC Uerdingen 05 making 41 appearances, scoring 4 goals and assisting once for an average rating of 7.47.
Cedric has also made 8 appearances for Germany's U-21 side, scoring one goal. In terms of silverware, he has a UEFA Europa League winners medal.

Congrats on winning Europa LeagueWell jealous of your youth intakes
It feels a little cheap, but the emotions of the Liverpool game kinda erase it . It's taken a lot of time to get to this point!

Season 14 in the books and we again concentrated on the cups, finishing in 10th place in 1.Bundesliga, as middling as you could get. We were also poor in the DfB Pokal as we lost to 2.Bundesliga strugglers SC Preußen Münster, 1-0 in the Third Round. We had another brilliant run in the UEFA Europa League, beating Celtic FC, S.S Lazio and A.C Milan in the knockout stages, before performing a smash-and-grab raid to beat Liverpool FC on penalties in the Final after a 2-2 draw took us to extra time and penalties. We stabilised at a very poor 14th in Goals Scored this season, only scoring more than the three relegated clubs again, and dropped like a stone defensively to 10th in Goals Conceded. We struggled playing the second team in the league this season again, but considering it's brought us two pieces of silverware, it'll be something I'll do next season too.

Urgh. Upgrading to the latest update has cocked my save and I've had to go back to before the first Lazio game. Obviously, I want to play on, but I feel like if I win, it'll be tainted. But I don't want to just throw the game. What does everyone think? Will it be bad if I play the save as normal from this point?

Any players able to make the step up?
Kastarati and Bock will be a part of the first team next season, or on loan.

23 minutes ago, Metal said:Hunter this isn't the 1900's where women are discriminated left right and centre. We're in 2022 and women have as much rights as men in the work environment, politics, sports and the divorce courts . SI don't don't have a moral obligation to go on a gender equality crusade in an effort to make things right.
I personally don't think women's football will take off due to the quality of the product which will never be as entertaining and engaging as men's football due to women footballers starting the game late and having to wait for generations to catch up to bridge the skill gap in quality. That's not me being sexist it's looking at objective reality. It's the same with women's boxing, there's a few top level women fighters that are on the undercard to men's fights, but the rest of the fighters that no one have heard of, bring in low quality fights. And the reality is the audience come to watch the men fight not the women. Legendary promoter of boxing Bob Arum and ESPN came out recently and even said nobody cares about women's boxing just like the premier league.
The same can be said about women's football, you can be sure as hell I won't be playing and I don't know anyone who's been calling for it. Like I said before, anyone would struggle to name 10 female footballers without having to use google.
As for the player feeling pressure regarding their clothes, that's on them. If they want to dress like a clown to attract attention, don't be surprised if it's received with ridicule. I seen some of the way these footballers dress and most don't have any fashion sense. This can never be compared with a gay player feeling targeted or bullied due to their sexuality, just like commentating on someone's features doesn't compare to an individual being racially abused.
What's being rammed down our throats are political activist agendas that have nothing to do with football manager. If I want to know more about equal gender rights on women, I'd take a course in feminism, not spend £30 on a game where I hope to play as a football manager.
Besides that we're not in the days of Justin Fashanu where a player is going to cop abuse for coming out gay. In todays world people are a lot more open minded due to better education with same sex relationships added to schools curriculum and awareness raised on the political platform through the LGBT groups. If SI/Miles think adding players coming out gay through one news item on a football sim, is going to influence and make an athlete or gamer come out of the closet, then they're misguided.
SI's attention would be better served improving the gameplay regularly to ensure it's M.E quality is on par with the latest other AA games on the market, instead of dishing out unfinished products while politics remain on top of their priority list
Come on man, I don't agree with anything you've said, but these points are especially egregious.
I watch live lower-league women's football on a regular basis and the standard of skill is probably higher than a National-level team. Also, I attend football matches often and if you think that a gay player wouldn't suffer homophobic abuse, you're dreaming

#1 - Christian Kurz, FC Viktoria 1899 Berlin
#41 - Máté Bánki, FSV Frankfurt (on loan from FC Viktoria 1899 Berlin)
#48 - Bryan Sabotic, FSV Frankfurt (on loan from FC Viktoria 1899 Berlin)
Well, we've ended up with the #1 prospect in Europe again and Máté Bánki is on the list for the second season in a row, dropping from #21 to #41 in the list. Finally Bryan Sabotic makes the list, a Luxembourger in the list

THIRTY players called up for international duty, FIFTEEN at various levels of the German national team... yet none for the main team. Sigh.

So, our 2035 academy scholars came in and We're still at Exceptional Youth Coaching and Exceptional Youth Recruitment. As ever, we will sign all the youth players and work on their flaws. When it comes to professional contracts, it'll be only the DNA qualifiers that get a contract.
I think we have a good sleeper in this intake
Let's look at the top 3 DNA prospects.
- AMRL/ST Manfred Flögel - Work Rate: 12, Pace 13, Technique: 12 - DNA: FAILED
He could be good, but he needs to work on the basics for him to last here.
- ML Johannes Barion - Work Rate: 14, Pace 14, Technique: 14 - DNA: PASSED
He'll be a decent winger and we need left midfielders a lot.
- WBL/DM/AMC Michael Gauner - Work Rate: 14, Pace 14, Technique: 15 - DNA: PASSED
He's not ranked as one of the elite prospects, but he'll be given every chance to become a first team player

Not lost to Celtic in two meetings. You mean the two meetings we had in the Group Stage?....

[FM22] Welcome to Eigenschaften

Posted · Edited by Deisler26
Hah! Yes, I'm an idiot. thankfully, Vasi is signed until the end of his career and San Miguel is unhappy, so he'll be sold soon!
To answer your first question...
Welcome to a one-off segment, where I see just how far each one of my first XI have come to our little corner of Berlin!
Let's begin! (All distances by car on Google Maps)
Wilske's journey from the borders of Switzerland was a long one, thankfully he's here
Vasiljević has come from the outskirts of Hamburg via it's surrounds (Paderborn and Köln) to Berlin (more than once)
Ralf's journey from near the Dutch border was a relatively simple one, with just us as his stop outside his birth area
San Miguel has no recorded birthplace so we judged him from his first club. From the northern coast of Spain, through France, into Germany, a long trek for the kid.
Romeo was released by his hometown club and was picked up by a Köln club, before heading to us.
Özcan has come a loooong way from not far from the Armenian border to Berlin. Testament to our scouting staff that we found such a player that far away so young!
Another distance academy player. Christian came from near the Austrian/Czech borders on his way up to Berlin. Bright lights, big city!
The closest one yet! Adamowski came from Leipzig's academy, so a short hop from his birthplace to Leipzig and a slightly longer one to us
Karl comes from that fertile player development area of Western Germany, as we managed to get to him before Schalke 04, Borussia Dortmund, Fortuna Düsseldorf, Bayer 04 Leverkusen and 1. FC Köln!!!!
Not much we can say about this. Canarinha came a quarter way round the globe to play for us. What a legend.
Near the Danish border, Torben came through us on his way to his first club, before coming back. Probably the first transferred player to be born outside his hometown club
Well, that was an interesting deep-dive into where my first team came from! If there is interest, I will do a Second XI one? For a bonus, I can tell you that throughout our teams, we have 19 Berlin natives.
