Season 137 - Are you ready?

[Horcrux]

Had a frigging hard league, but I finished second ahead of far superior opponents. Did well in the cups and won the Super League. But the season was overshadowed by the weirdest association member I've ever encountered.

We took him in on the first day of the season and everything seemed okay. He introduced himself in English and said nice things to other managers.

On the Friday of the first weekend, I named his training partner. He didn't acknowledged, didn't train his partner and stopped communicating for eight days. He logged in every single day, but he didn't respond to chat messages. We tried speaking in English, German and Italian (because he was a Juventus-supporting Swiss guy).

On the third and fourth week, he trained random managers who were already trained - and ignored his training partner. And still refused to respond to chat. I warned him that I was going to kick him out after getting his tokens. No response.

Today, he casually congratulated everyone on a great season, as if nothing had happened. I had to kick him out.

Learnt a lot last season (my second) especially with regard to tactics. Found that I've lucked into a few fast trainers that let me improve my team at a rapid rate through the second half of last season - I hope to replicate that this time around.

Won the league, 2nd place in champions league - lost the final to a team far superior to mine, and had a hard cup draw with all the stronger teams in my half. Scored 11 goals in a match which was certainly a high point, went undefeated in the league and again had a goal difference over 100.

Hope to have a good season with some silverware again!
