Keegan's Notes
Eleven Goals In Three Games As Madrid March On
So we had 4 matches only this month and really could not have performed any better. The first match was against Guadalajara which was an easy victory and the next was against Sevilla and it looked bad after 10 minutes because they had gone 2-0 up. Gabriele Ghedin got one back though on the 17th minute. At half time I told them that we should be winning a match like this and for the team to pick it up sharpish.
The talk worked as Holm fed Ghedin through for him to round the keeper and score although it was off the post which was almost embarassing for him. We then probed and probed but had to wait until the 82nd minute for the winner. Oliver Holm grabbed it with a stunning headed goal in off the bar.
Then came the best performance I have ever seen in Oliver Holm against Real Sociedad. The Sociedad defence could not cope with Holm's finishing, as he bagged FIVE goal for us. Oliver gave us the lead with a accurate finish in the 14th minute. He then added his second goal of the game with a good headed goal from just inside the six-yard box on the 31st minute.
The Danish superstar then got his Hat-trick on the 44th minute with a well timed finish. Holm added his 4th goal of the game with a close range finish which was timed impeccably on the 79th minute.
Oliver Holm completed the rout on the 84th minute with a placed shot. The striker's impressive performance was down to the constant goal threat he posed due to the accuracy of shooing.
He obviously got the Player Of The Match and was absolutely outstanding.
We then played and destroyed Athletic with Ghedin (2) and Holm getting on the score-sheet. We have been absolutely awesome this month.
Liga BBVA Table
Well with 8 games to go and 24 points available, we are 13 points clear so it is all down to this month and we could well be champions. Sociedad and Granada are still clear of Barcelona with Holders Atletico just behind them.
Madrid Player Of The Month
The whole team get it again!Upcoming fixtures
We play Valencia and Granada with 3 others thrown in but we should win all of them to be honest.

Yes we FUCKING did it!!! Last season I took Nottingham Forest to the Premier League title and this season I have now took Real Madrid to the Spanish title. The whole team deserves a lot of credit.
We started with a 2-2 draw against Mallorca and Valencia. Leleco getting a goal in each game and Coulibaly and Ghedin scoring the others but it was the match against Zaragoza that showed we were ready.
7-0 we won and Holm scored two crackers, Schenone, Nightingale, Nirvana, Keegan and Paulo Victor savaged the poor Zaragozians and we were on our way to the title.
We then destroyed Espanyol 6-0 with Schenone, Nightingale and a hattrick from Holm, who has been the best player for the entire season made it 5-0 and Ferreira got the 6th. We went intothe Granada match knowing a victory would hand us the title with 3 games to spare and a victory is what we got.
Leleco was left on the bench for the impressive Schenone and he supplied the corner which hit Domingo on the backside and went in for an own goal. We held on to secure the title at the first time of asking for and the travelling fans went crazy.

Real Madrid favourite and former boss Carlo Ancelotti had words of encouragement for Los Merengues boss Kevin Keegan following his success.
He stated that although many had expected them to win, Keegan had handled the pressure of expectancy well and showed a great deal of spirit to guide the team to a trophy.
I have today announced I will leave Madrid when this season finishes I will be looking to go to a new country and I am not ruling out Australia and America but will also look for a challenge in Europe too.
I have loved my time in Madrid but I want to go to a new country and since winning this title, I could even look at Portugal or Germany.
Rumours are that Kevin Keegan has been approached by a Brazilian team too but would he gamble on a South American Club? We will see.

So not 7 days after leaving Real Madrid, I had already applied for the Inter Milan job. I was offered an interview and they obviously liked me because I got offered the job.
After 3 friutless years under the old man Jose Mourinho, I signed a 2 year deal with €67,000 a week. Mourinho who only won the Uefa Cup in that three year has left Inter fans wanted immediate success. Mourinho was only able to lead Inter to 2nd, 2nd and 4th in his three years at the club but they will now hope that Keegan can bring them success in the League and the Uefa cup this season.
I am absolutely delighted to be given the chance to manage such an amazing Italian club. I have been given funds to go an buy big if I want and I will get Nirvana and Jamie to the club with me. Mark my words I will.
The hard work now starts as I need to turn this club around but I have faith in my ability as a manager.

So I was given €77,000,000 to sign players and I went for four of my old players are Real Madrid. John Keegan and Morgan Thomas were two stand out players all season but the big signings are the two wingers. Brazilian superstar Nirvana joins for €28,000,000 and the big price-tage will mean he has to perform again this season.
All of these signings are great. Nirvana managed to get 25 assists last season which was a La Liga record so it will be interesting to see how he adapts to life in Italy and the fact I will have to play a different formation because of the squad I have inherited.
John is a young man who is going places. How he has not been called up to the England squad yet I have no idea. Morgan will come in and be my Vice Captain. He led Madrid so well last season but in Carlos Gomez the Uruguayan is the natural leader we need. English international Jamie Nightingale will need to prove he can play in a intense environment but I feel he can rise to the challenge.

I would like to say a big thanks for my Story Of The Month nomination. It has been a lot of hard work and I am happy it has been recognised

With just around 2 weeks before the start of the season I called the squad in for a meeting and told them that failiure is no option. I told them that we have the squad to win all the cups and the Serie A title.
I really can not wait to unleash this team on the rest of the teams in the Serie A. This is one of the best squads I have had to work with so lets look at 3 players that I inherited when joining Inter.

Bazilian Leandro, 26 is Inter's main man at the moment but with me there he is going to have to score more goals than he usually does. He has been capped by Brazil 16 times and has been at Inter for five years after joining from Santos in Brazil for €8,250,000 and has hit 45 goals in 163 games which is not the greatest but it definately is not the worse. Leandro is going to have to have a good season this season to prove he still is the number one striker.
![]()
Dutch goalkeeper Jeroen Zuiderwijk has been at Inter for six years and in them six years has kept 85 clean sheets and is the undisputed number one at Inter this season. There is a saying with some things and that is if it is not broke then don't fix it so he will keep goal again this year in what I hope will be a title winning year.

I know Franck well as i spent €26,000,000 on him but unfortunatly then it did not work out but now he has excelled at Inter and is going to be crucial alongside Morgan Thomas this season. He only play 18 times last season and will be given a chance this season.
I am ecstatic to announce a multi-million Euro deal with U.S giants Microsoft to sponsor Inter for the next 5 years. The details are being kept secret but they will appear on the shirt from this coming season with the shirt coming out tomorrow.
![]()
The Bookies see this as a 5 horse race with Juventus just favourites from A.C Milan who are the holders, ourselves and Fiorentina with Roma just on the outskirts of the title race.
We will play Shamrock Rovers of Ireland and it should mean we have a straight forward passage through to the group stages but we are up against a team that missed out on Champions League football last season by away goals.

We have a massive match first against fellow favourites Fiorentina. How will my 4-2-2-1-1 formation work? We will find out soon enough.

We have a massive match first against fellow favourites Fiorentina. How will my 4-2-2-1-1 formation work? We will find out soon enough.

The group of the draw is the Granada group because Sloven Bratislava missed out on Champion sLeague football on away goals and 1860 Munich are spedning big. Alania are Russian so must be decent too.
We have a reletively easy group with out of form Spartak, French cup winners Saint-Etienne and greek side Artomitos. I hope to easily top the group there.

We deserved to lose here because Fiorentina had a fantastic match and got a deserved victory infront of there own fans. The is where I think 4-2-2-1-1 will not work so I will look to change the formation from now on.

We have some big matches this month with Lazio and Juventus standing out. We also need to get off to a good start in the Europa League too.
