The Burnley President had enough of Sean Dyche as he led the Burnley side to relegation and Sky Bet championship winners in his run but had done nothing remarkable.They wanted someone with pride,passion and a good sense of humour so they could atleast use the manager for something...Eventually they found their perfect pick...Who you might think?The one and only Swag Boi.Swag Boi was one of the most revolutionary players for his club and country.He scored 320 goals for Nottingham Forrest while being a Keeper!Even Nicklas Bendtner hasn't scored that much!He also scored 54 goals for England while being a keeper.But when it was the big games Fabio Cappello would always sub on Emile Heskey just to piss Swag Boi off.Most people don't know about him because Brian Clough forgot to press "Keep history after retirement"...But he embarks a new journey being Manager of Burnley Football Club.

The first thing as manager Swag has to do is to meet the President Mike Garlick(Trust me I'm not lying that's his name),The President rambles on about boring stuff such as staff etc.Swag already had it in his mind that the first thing he does is set up a meeting with the board to discuss club philosophies and set up an intra squad friendly to learn about the team and if they are capable enough to beat a bunch of kids.Ofcourse then I checked the team out and realized that there isn't good depth in terms of attack and defence.Thus,the best way to improve this was to get some quality wonderkids.But before that I put the team on tactics training as they didn't know anything about the tactic and it felt like the whole squad was just a bunch of Mario Balotelli's...But once that was done Swag was heading onto the fun part.Signing wonderkids


The first wonderkid that Swag prepared to sign was the BEAST himself Kuki.One of the most promising wonderkids in football,Kuki was sure to improve and was already loan listed by the idiots that were Malaga.But 11 clubs were already interested clubs which included Crystal Palace and Watford.Now if you knew Swag the last thing he wanted was to let Kuki play with Benteke or Troy Deeney so he immediately offered Malaga an offer for a cheap $2.5m.Now it was time time to move to Defence.I put an offer in for another BEAST that is Matthijs de Ligt(I wonder how the Dutch come up with these names).Another Cheap wonderkid who's club accepted a deal of just $2m!Even Joey Barton costs more than that and Barton isn't even half decent!

SO the next day the board sends their requirements for the season and they expect us to avoid relegation,reach Round 5 of the FA Cup and Round 4 of the EFL Cup.Swag accepted those demands but he knew his players were hoping to win all the competitions.But Swag wasn't gonna tell that to the Board but his players and he knew that they were going to do it.The Club also offers a transfer budget of $14m but Swag knows he can change the team with just $100.Just supply his players with a Red Bull before every match...But the next mail was from De Ligt's agent as he said Burnley aren't a big club so he can't join it.Now I guess he mistook which club he was referring to but Swag didn't want to convince him.He moved on to another BEAST wonderkid defender who's name was Issa Diop(seriously though who names these guys...)

Swag went on and offered his club $7.5m and the next day negotiated a contract of 988k per year(He should probably change his name with that money...)but the day that Issa Diop confirmed his transfer to Burnley Kuki rejected going into talks with Burnley.Now while Swag did say he was a good player he wasn't the best wonderkid as he remembered the actual best Striker which was THE BEAST Andrea Pinamonti.The BEAST was brought by Swag for just $1.5m.But as the pre season begins the team will need to start playing with new players to get used to them.But will these players even come before the transfer window ends.Will they even come to the club.Will they not ask $10m a year just for being at this club?Stay alive and tuned for the next part of this story which will release very soon!

Issa Diop will be a solid no frills centre back for you mate and Kuki rejecting you is a shame as he can cover a lot of positions.

that is if he signs for the mighty Burnley...
Issa good start to the defence, it's looking DeLigtful

It sure is...
This is Part Two of Swag's Journey.Let's see how it goes.

In this part of our story we bring in new signings that will potentially change Burnley history forever and we will also play all of our friendlies in this part.Who did we sign?How did the friendlies go?Find out today

SO we start of this part of the story with the intra-squad friendly where the kids play against players like Joey Barton.Hopefully,they'll come out of the pitch alive...So the match has ended and believe it or not the Burnley senior squad beat the kids 7-1...I am just disappointed that they couldn't score ten goals but hey if Neymar somehow signs for us then this would be something to share with him...

AND our hopes to sign Andrea Pinamonti go to a total waste as he says that his "development" is going well so he wouldn't want to join.I guess he's forgetting that no one is going to teach him how to open a cold one with the boys at Inter while at Burnley we have specified coaches dedicated to that job such as "Tic Tac Head" Mr.Afghan Dan

Anyways Swag moved on to 2 BEASTS that are Afonso Sousa and Rodrigo Bentancur.Swag offered Rodrigo $12.25m and Afonso a cheap $2.1m.The next day Rodrigo's contract talks commenced where he was offered 975k per year(which is pretty cheap considering Joey Barton takes 1.7m per year just to crack some s*** jokes in the locker room...)The next day Afonso Sousa's contract talks also commenced with him asking only 200k per year.That was cheaper than how much a rich guy pays at the Pub...and that says something....

The next day Sousa's Contract was confirmed and he was a Claret.This marked the first signing of the Swag Era.And the 2nd one came just a day later as the BEAST Issa Diop had been confirmed to be a Claret as well.The next day Sunderland bid a transfer for George Boyd for $3.2m which Swag rejected and sent a note to go get relegated to Vanarama National.

Going forward we had a friendly match with FC Midtjylland(The Club owners clearly didn't study their vowels...) in which we play our new signings Issa Diop and Afonsa Sousa.Burnley destroyed FC Midtjylland in a 3-1 win with 60% Possesion and 22 shots.The next day,Rodrigo Bentaclur was confirmed as a Claret and hopefully he won't be the new gen Freddy Adu and actually be half decent.But ofcourse there was one signing missing and that was the Striker.And who do I buy as Striker.The most underrated wonderkid that was Alberto Cerri.I payed a fee of $2m and negotiated a contract of $500k per year and he was sure to be the next legend and follow up to greats such as Nicklas Bendtner and break World Records.

Next up we had another friendly against AaB(Trust me I'm not making these names up) in which we played our new signing Bentaclur and won 3-1 where Bentaclur scored his first goal.We also confirmed Cerris transfer offer the next day.Next up we had a match against Elversberg(My friend that doesn't talk can think of a better name and he's not even real...)We won another match and this time 2-0 with 16 shots.

Now we had another friendly match against FC Viktoria Koln(Pretty much B-tech FC Koln).But Steven Defour out of nowhere has a broken hand and is injured for atleast 4 weeks and will miss the Start of the Premier League.No worries as Afonso Sousa is there to do the job so Steven will definitely not be missed.Anyways we hammered FC Koln B-tech 2-0 with 15 shots while they only had 1. Now we had another friendly this time against RW Essen(The only half decent name for a club in our friendly matches...)which we won by 1-0 with seventeen shots and 7 on target shots(How can you manage to miss 10 shots in a game I don't understand).

Now we had ANOTHER friendly against Havant & W (This is what happens when you are limited to 10 letters....)which we won 4-0 with 28 SHOTS!4-3-3 is pretty much the best tactic...Anyways the predictions came out and Burnley were tipped 11-1 to get relegated and 1000-1 to win the league.I'm pretty sure Antonio Conte made the predictions because Chelsea actually qualified for the Champions League but I guess we'll shock everyone when we win the league by 101 points...

We had our last friendly against POAK(I swear I didn't make this up I SWEAR) and we won 2-1 with 24 shots and in 14 days we had our first match in the Premier League against Everton.However,we will end today's part of the story here.Will we start the Premier League with a win?Will our new signings perform in the League?Will Joey Barton actually play half decent and will anyone have the nerves to stop us from winning the Premier League?Find out in the next part of this thrilling story.Stay Tuned and make sure to follow this thread to get notified when the next part comes out.
This is Part 3 Of the Swag Career Mode.Here we go

Today we are going to start our Premier League season.With out new signings,new mentality and same old Joey Barton...Let's see how it goes.Will we start the season with a win?Will Joey Barton score 10 goals?Lets find out

SO the board has just told Swag how our August Calendar will be like.We will face Everton on the 13th,Arsenal on the 20th and lastly Swansea on the 27th.However before these matches started Swag still had enough budget to buy another player so he bid an offer and made a contract offer eventually for the BEAST goalkeeper that was Alessandro Plizzari as a promising wonderkid that was ready to stop Romelu Lukaku's shots(That is if he somehow shoots on target...).Anyways the transfer got confirmed for a fee of $3m and a salary of $1m per year

However,before that the EFL Cup 2nd round draws were made where we were drawn against League 1 Chesterfield.I mean against them it's harder to lose than to win so we should be winning it.

Focusing back on the Premier League,the predictions for the Burnley vs Everton match had been made and the draws said Everton has an 11-5 chance of win...I think that's the score in which we'll be winning with Dean Marney and Joey Barton scoring all the goals.

We had now reached the match and our starting XI was as followed:
GK:Tom Heaton(Captain)
LB:Stephen Ward
D:Michael Keane
D:Issa Diop
RB:Jon Flanagan
DM:Lord Joey Barton
CM:Rodrigo Bentancur

===============================================================
OH GOD NO!Robbie Brady has gotten injured and will get in recovery in around 4 weeks...I just don't understand why the game hates Swag so much...

Skip forward 7 days and now we have a match against Arsenal.Now in real life Burnley got thrashed 5-0 and 2-1 in the 2017/18 season and in the game Arsenal are a good team for some unknown reason...My Pre Match Prediction is we lose 3-1...I just can't see Burnley winning it from any angle...The game predicts Arsenal an easy win Arsenal 2-5...I just hope we don't lose too badly...

================================================================
Last time out we played our first League matches against Everton and Arsenal both which we tied 1-1.This time we will play the EFL Second Round against Chesterfield and Swansea in the Premier League.Let's go
================================================================
SO without a further ado we reach the day to face Chesterfield in the EFL Cup and the predictions had made us favorites with a prediction of 1-4.If we manage to lose this then I'm pretty sure someone bribed the players.Also,the Transfer window was going to end in a week and I probably won't spend more...probably...Anyways it was match time and this was our starting XI

Robbery...Absolute robbery.1 SHOT in the WHOLE GAME and it's a goal...nope...We've been robbed there and I am out of words for what has just happened.Our EFL Cup expectations are ended before they could start...Speechless...simply speechless....
================================================================
Anyways now atleast we can give all our attention to the Premier League and the FA Cup in the future...but I'm pretty sure there's going to be that one Blackburn fan who's going to be screaming in joy but I think he should remember Burnley are the ones playing in the Prem while your playing with Aldershot Town....
================================================================
HOWEVER,I had identified the weak spots of Burnley...Joey Barton as a defensive midfielder is a terrible choice as he's more of a boxer on the pitch...so I decided to make a loan offer for Ruben Neves...I also made a loan offer for a very promising right winger Marquinhos Cipriano with an optional fee of $5m in the future.We needed him as Gudmondson was the only player who was decent enough to play as right winger.I also made a loan offer for Kuki with an optional transfer offer clause of $20m.Let's see how it goes...

So fast forward a day later and Kuki and Cipriano's offer had been sealed and now we had to secure the work permit(Why can't he just play at England..Not like his migrating...It's just a loan...).However,Ruben Neves's offer had been rejected and Swag went in with an improved offer...So fast forward a few days and the Kuki loan is confirmed...Marquinhos is delayed due to work permit and Porto still want a better loan deal so Swag gave them a new deal...

Match day against Swansea had come and unfortunate for us...none of the loan deal players could be with us as two of them hadn't even been confirmed and Kuki was off to International Duty...GREAT...However we had to play now with out regular starting XI

Burnley 2 - Swansea 0

CONCLUSION
================================================================
It was what you would call a bad day at the office.We played brilliantly in both the matches but ended up losing and drawing due to bad luck.Pure Bad Luck.However if our luck doesn't change over the course of time we will suffer.Will it change?Will our next games change our fortune.Or will it stay the same.Will our Ruben Neves loan be completed?Find out in the next part of the story and be sure to click follow on top of the page and give suggestions down below.
THANK YOU!
================================================================
Really unlucky in all the matches and u definitely got FMéd in the cup match lol savage result mate. Neves will be awesome if he does come on loan he's much better than Barton.
1
Hopefully Neves will come.I just can't bear Barton anymore
This is Part 5 of the Swag Career Mode
================================================================
So last time out we played in the EFL Cup against Chesterfield which we lost 1-0 and a Premier League match against Swansea which we tied 2-2.Can we somehow get onto a good form and change our luck?Let's find out
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now we move onto the Month of September where we have matches against Bournemouth,Manchester City,Tottenham and Manchester United...This will be a VERY tough month but we just have to work harder...Anyways the Marquinhos Cipriano loan failed due to no work permit but Kuki and Ruben Neves had been loaned to our club...Now we had to find a suitable right winger...

Swag made an attempt to loan Frederico Chiessa with a clause of an optional fee of $10m in the future which they accepted.Now we had probably enough talent on our hands and just needed to work hard now and we confirmed these loan offers just a day before the transfer window closed down.

OH are you serious...Rodrigo Bentancur has been injured and won't be back until 4-5 weeks in probably our most toughest month of the season...Steven Defour is fit but will he do the job for Burnley?We'll have to find out...

OH GOD..Ruben Neves has rejected the loan offer out of nowhere and we don't have enough budget for the Chiesa loan offer...what is happening...But THANK LORD.The board accepted the request for more transfer budget and now we have put the Chiessa loan confirmed...Now we just needed a Defensive Midfielder.

Swag made an offer for Rui Peres a Portuguese prodigy with a $2m optional future fee.The Rui Peres loan had also been negotiated which now said an optional future fee of $40m.Swag probably won't buy him at the end of his loan but atleast he's with Burnley for meanwhile.However we now had a problem...Out of trasfer budget again...But another problem aswell...We could either strengthen our defensive mid or left back as Stephen Ward wasn't a suitable option.Swag went with the choice of a left back as Steven Defour could play defensive mid and he was back in fitness.So I guess we had to go for a cheaper player and went for Djavan.A Brazilian 28 year old who can contribute quite a lot for Burnley IF the offer is suitable.

The Djavan offer had been confirmed and that was our last loan offer we were going to make.OH AND WOULD YOU BELIEVE IT...Djavan's offer has also been delayed due to work permit issues...Well,I guess we had to move on to defensive midfield then and made a loan offer for Jan Kirchhoff.However,they rejected again and again and again after improved offers kept on coming.They did not accept.

The transfer deadline day had passed and we were unable to find a defensive midfielder...Will someone else in the squad perform good in that area?We will find out.

Anyways it was match day time against Bournemouth and we were tipped favorites to win by a 6-4 prediction.We really need to start winning some games and this was our perfect chance.

This time we will have to play less matches as we took a lot of time in the Transfer Drama...In the next part of Swag's story we will play 3 matches each against Manchester City,Tottenham and Manchester United...However in today's part of Swag's story we failed to loan numerous players and also failed in securing a win against Bournemouth.When will our winless streak end?Can we cause an upset in our next 3 matches?Make sure to hit the follow button on top of the thread to get notified when the next part of the story comes out.Be sure to give feedback on this story.
