So first of all: English is NOT my native language, so there may accur some grammatical errors!
Some weeks ago, when my PSV game chrashed, I started over. I played FM 11 before with different teams in different countries: Liga BBVA team FC Barcelona, Premier League team Manchester United FC, Eredivisie team PSV, Dutch 1st class team (Dutch 5th level) team DZC'68, Eredivieteam FC Groningen, and also very short careers with Fiorentina and Bayern München, but those weren't even close to 1 season.
But there was still 1 major league I still haven't put a look on, or even knew a thing about: The French Ligues. I normally take a top-team, or a subtop-team, so I had a few options: Olympique Lyonnais, Olympique Marseilles, Paris-Saint Germain, LOSC Lille and Girondins de Bordeaux. After some internal discussion (write your szichophrenic joke here) I chose for PSG. It was already taken over by some Arabic Guy, but still a team which was world class.
I write a very short summary of the first 3 seasons:
2011/2012:
Lukcely I know how to manage topteams, even when I have not the very best players. I always try to keep the group harmony as high as possible, Being strict when getting cards and bad performerances, and take my own tactics. Every season i use another tactic, which suits my team the best. I don't take the ones from FM, i make them myself. This was the season of 4231, with 451 (with the point defensive) when I have tough matches. I'd Like to shop, and the first players I bought were Tevez (22M), Rossi (33M) Sigurdsson (16M) and Labyad (11M). After those I needed some backs, so Van der Wiel (8M) and Chiellini (13M) came towards me. Gameiro was sold for 27M
A good season, with some very good results (6-0 awaywin against OM) and bad results (3-0 home loss against AS Lancy lorreine in the 4th round of the Ligacup, it was the first round I played).
The Prizes:
Europa League
Ligue 1
French Cup
2012/2013
Second season, and the season of the all-out-attacking 4132, without a defensive mid, and automatic backs. The Big transfers were Lukaku, Aguero and Wilshere, the big ones out: Tevez (stuped mad man), Sissoko and Pastore (didn't fit the system).
This seasons were also ups and downs, 5-4 against Shaktar Donetsk and 5-1 out against Barca, and some bad one: 0-1 loss against Istres which was already demoted, 1-3 home against Barca.
Prizes:
Ligue 1
Champions league (3-1 win in extra time)
French Cup
French Super Cup
World Cup for Clubteams
European Supercup
2013/2014:
My last completed season, and my best season ever with all careers. 114 points in 38 matches in the Ligue 1, Romelo Lukaku who took his chance, and netted 67 goals in 61 matches, from which 4 matches and 9 goals as a substitute. In the season of the 4222, in a hexagon on the midfield (2 CM, 2 Wingers, 2 Strikers) my team were killers, with 260 goals in 59 matches. That's an average of more than 3 goals per match.
A look of good results, with one majo blow for man united: They Beat me in Manchester with 3-0, I took revenge in Parc Du princes with an 8-0 demolition match: 34 chances, 27 on goal.
This time I took the Ligacup, but forgot to to take the European Supercup.
2013/2014:
The current season is just 6 matches old, and Romelu Lukaku is THE killer with already 11 goals, which 10 of them are made in the 4 Ligue 1 matches. The 11th was made in the French Supercup, Which was against OM. It is also the first Price of The Season.
My Current team:
Goalies: Sigiru, termijn, Areola
Defenders (Backs): Corchia, Evra, Van der Wiel, Robinson, Cissokho
Defenders (Central): Vidic, Varane, Sakho, Kompany, Vertonghen
Midfielders (Central): Sigurdsson, Kroos, Ramsey, Matuidi
Midielders (Wings): Hazard, Labyad, Szymanski, Wilshere, Deulofeu
Strikers: Lukaku, Rossi, Suarez, Benzema, Erick Torres
Furthermore I do have a LOT of decent youth: 21 players with the possibility of 3,5 star, 1 of 4 star. Oh, and for comparisation: Lionel Messi is Valued 4 stars
I hope it wasn't to much to read, and that it was readable
Mid-season-update will follow after I played a match of 25 more
