I have started this challenge because I couldn't be bothered with any of my other games. I thought step 1 was fairly straight forward and that I'd have it won withen at least two seasons but I didn't know Basel were so dominant in the Super League. Or it could just be my game lol.

I will put up screenshots when the transfer window closes, of all my transfers, squad and the league table so far etc.

How did you get Stancu for 180k?

Also Fed, how are you supposed to get these jobs? Just wait for them to sack their manager?

you have to wait for the manager to get sacked, you can only get the jobs through applying or declaring interest only.
