13. End of an Era
A lot has happened since I last wrote something, let me start with how I was planned to approach the season. I was really pleased with the new strength at centre back with Arifin, then partnering Reilly and Purflett for Champions League games resulted in lots of goals. This screenshot also shows that I had…
14. Don’t Call it a Comeback
After the hassle and failure of Google Stadia, the only positive thing I can say about the experience is that I was refunded my £40 by Google. They acknowledged that they sold me a defective game, which I am surprised and disappointed about, especially the fact that Sports Interactive (SI) as a developer allowed it…
15. Squad Assessment, Transfer Window and First Games
With my feet under the table, I find myself with around a week before my first game. Ideally I’d play a few games, settle in and see what I need but the transfer window also shuts the day before my game. My early business will need to be concluded in advance of seeing anyone in…
16. Ending the Season
Picking up from where I left off and my season really needed some momentum. For background, the K-League works in much the same way as the Scottish Premier League. There are 12 teams who play each other 3 times to get to 33 games played. The league then splits into top 6 and bottom 6,…
17. A Mini Revolution
I did finish up last time around by stating that I thought it would be revolution rather than evolution, and I was as good as my word. The old cliche of a revolving door was very apt, a lot of signings, more players leaving than joining, a lot of additional staff coming on board, and…
18. First Full Season in Incheon
Slightly off topic but just a nod to the fact that both blog 16 and this one feature genuine pictures of Stefan Mugosa playing for Incheon United, just in case you wanted to put a face to the name. With a good pre-season under our belt, I go into the season with a huge amount…
19. First Full Season in Incheon – Part 2
The first third of the season went well, I was hoping to carry momentum into the middle third. As you can probably guess from the featured picture of this edition, the key theme of this update is injuries, we’ve really had to limp through and on a regular basis we’ve been simply unable to name…
20. First Full Season in Incheon – Part 3
Last time out our progress was hampered by injuries, I would love to tell you that this time around things were different but we had more occasions where we couldn’t even name a full bench again. Squad depth in terms of the numbers will be a key part of what I do in the transfer…
21. End of Season and Transfer Window
This is quite a long update where I will cover the end of the season, the transfer window and introduce you to my squad for my final season in Incheon. Straight into the games, there were 5 to play against my other top 6 contenders and first up was runaway leaders Sangju Sangmu. The visitors…
22. Last Season in South Korea – Part 1
The off season was disappointing, I really thought that if we had the squad from last season with 2/3 additions then we would be top 3 for sure and possibly pushing the title. Instead we lost both our first choice centre backs, still have to pay their wages and got no fees in. I know…
23. Middle Part of my last Season in South Korea
Last time around I was happy to end with a long unbeaten run, Mugosa back amongst the goals and optimism that we can get the top half before pushing on. We pick up here with games straight away, first up was Ansan Police at home for a second time this season. They still have 3…
24. The End
Technical issues have got me again. I started my next stint with a 2-1 home win over FC Seoul in the local derby and started to get my mojo back…then the game crashed during a save. The save game is corrupted and now won’t load, my last autosave is only a few games back but…
