Total Domination - A Real Story

This is going to be a story on my Real Madrid season, which I know is classed as an easy challenge. I wanted to use a big team and lead them onto greater success and get them to be a dominant force in everything, whether it’s the League, Champions League or the domestic cups.

Good luck

Good luck.

I have already played through a full season so I will post up the League Table, Champions League tree and Domestic cup tree.



I finished second in the league with 11 points behind Barcelona, which isn’t good enough, with stupid draws and defeats that could have been avoided. Aiming higher next season, hopefully finishing 1st. I also never lost to Barcelona as drew 4-4 with them at the Camp Nou and beat them 2-1 at home.
I got knocked out of the champion’s league in the semi-finals with a 3-3 draw with Juventus, they went through on away goals, which was really bad as I got beat at home 3-1 and only managed a 2-0 win at their ground.
We had some success with the Spanish Cup after beating Malaga 2-0. I got their by beating teams like Sevilla, Valencia and Real Betis while Malaga went through teams like Athletic, Barcelona and Elche..

Now for the rewards.

Spanish Goal Keeper of the Year
1. Victor Valdes (Barcelona)
2. Diego Alves (Valencia)
3. Andres (Osasuna)

Valdes was well deserved of the goal keeper of the year with an average rating of 7.04 with 18 clean sheets. Casillas was my first choice goal keeper as he is a legend and one of the best in the world but had a dodgy season and I am hoping he will improve this season.

Manager of the Year
1. Bernd Schuster (Malaga)
2. Ernesto Valverde (Athletic)
3. Gerardo Martino (Barcelona)

Well deserved Manager of the Year as he led his team to 4th and to the Super Cup final.

Player of the Year
1. Gareth Bale (Real Madrid)
2. Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid)
3. Isco (Real Madrid)

Messi didn’t even get a sniff even though he was top goal scorer of the league. Bale took the league by storm with top notch performances with 28 appearances he scored 18 goals, 13 assists, 6 Player of the Match (known as PoM from now on) and an average rating of 7.81.
Ronaldo’s stats: 34 appearances, 25 goals, 11 assists, 9 PoM and average rating of 7.69.
Isco’s stats: 32 Appearances, 13 goals, 14 assists, 3 PoM and average rating of 7.53.

Team of the Season



Top Goal Scorer
1. Lionel Messi (Barcelona, 28)
2. Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid, 25)
3. Charles (Celta Vigo, 19)

Best Player in Europe
1. Cristiano Ronaldo
2. Gareth Bale
3. Lionel Messi

There must have been something wrong with Blatter as they have stopped licking Messi’s A**. But Ronaldo deserved it as he led the team by example by putting in amazing performances and scoring a lot of goals, 37 to exact.

European Golden Boy
1. Isco

For a second year in a row this boy won it as he put in good performances at such a young age. And he is only to get better...

Golden Shoe
1. Lionel Messi
2. Wilfried Bony
3. Cristiano Ronaldo

There is no denying that Messi is an all time great and it shows by the amount of goals he scored over the season, raking up 28 goals in 38 appearances.

My Signings

First Season


Second Season


My Prediction

For this season I am predicting big things from my team as I brought in loads of players and got rid of dead wood and also players that I didn't want to sell but they requested transfers e.g. Marcelo.

I feel, with the teams quality we can win the league, make a serious challenge for the Champions League and retain the Spanish Cup

Key Players and Future Stars

Cristiano Ronaldo



This guy is a machine and can assist or score goals for fun. I'm expecting him to carry on with his form from last season and help with our challenge of the league.

Gareth Bale



Another goal scoring machine and assister is Bale, who holds the most expensive signing of 100 million euros. He will build up the play and push Real Madrid further than before.

Robert Lewandowski



Everyone knows that Lewandowski is a born goal scorer and can see that from playing for Dortmund, who also scored 4 goals against Real Madrid. I'm hoping he can score that many goals against Barcelona.

Iker Casillas



This guy is my favourite all time goal keeper and I believe he can pick himself up from last season as I thought he only started playing better towards the end of the season.

Sergio Ramos



Sergio Ramos is the complete package in defence as he can tackle, pass his way out of trouble and can motivate his team. For all of last season I have played him in the right back position as I didn't have an adequate solution as Arbeloa moved on to different pastures.

Future Stars

Ter Stegen



Acting as cover for Casillas is Ter Stegen the U21 German goal keeper. If Casillas doesn't perform Ter Stegen will take his place. If you have played FM before you will understand how goof Ter Stegen becomes.

Isco



The Spanish wizard is going to be my first choice AMC as his form last season was unbelievable and I feel he cannot be replaced at the minute. He can score goals or assist other players and can also dictate the play by quickening it up or slowing it down. A future captain.

Raphael Varane



Played nearly every minute of last season and with players such as Ramos, Ronaldo and Bale around you, you would just want to impress. And with Doria and Papadopoulos now in the team there will be competition in the team so he will have to step it up.

Illarramendi



Some people might not think that guy will perform in Madrid but for me last season was one of the stand outs of last season as he took Alonso's place in the middle of the field as Alonso didn't recover from his injury and couldn't work his way back into the team.

Casemiro



A good box to box midfielder was put into the team when Khedira was sold to PSG for £22 million. With good stats for his age I didn't doubt he couldn't perform. With 28 league games last season it could only mean good things for his stats and overall better performances

Top Performer

Doria
Was my best player over these games scoring goals, hattrick against Deportivo, and solid defensive work. Kept Papadopoulos on the bench with these performances and at the age of 19 you can only look up.
