Lets see what I can do in this cut throat crazy league in a few seasos at a side that has been in lower half of the table in recent years but has won the league way back in 2003 and 1995 when the levels of money were not like they are today.
The Club Facilities could do with investment.
in terms of Sponsorship we do have a large chunk, but it is a long way off the big teams within the league.
So around mid levels of sponsorship within the league, and the board want top half finishes, it should be doable
The Leagues rules Seeking a quality u23 might be tough 5 with 4 in the 11 non chinese is a key to initial success usually
The exemption rule is a new addition to FM21 with nationisation a thing for China now. Takes 1825 days continusly to do this.
Squad First thing that is noticed upon this first team squad is there sheer lack of young players, Also finding the decent chinese keepers will be a massive coup.
Can Mbia do a job in China, defensively he is miles better then chinese defenders, but he will be up against alot of non chinese players. I forgot El Shaarawy had found himself in China. I will probably hunt around for younger players initially but mostly keep squad as is. Though chances are open to reducinmg the ages of our foriegn players
Finances We have a balance of 75m but only 6m to spend and zero left in the wage budget.

First game in charge ended up with this. Super Cup vs Guangzhou Tatics wise Inverted Wingbacks to flood into midfield Libero to mop up and help push up looking to hold on to the ball and slowly generate chances

Transfers
in Dai Wai Tsun is young and Hong Kong international thus exempt from foriegn limits and has had spells in Europe as a youngster. He sgould feel the exempt role until anyone else better comes aloong though. probably overpayed for the goalkeeper Wang Dalei, 5m up front and 10m over next 3 years. in my opinion the best current Chinese keeper by miles
Out
We sold reserve player Qi Long for 42k and Shin Wook for 475k As couldnt get him registered

Summer transfer window has closed Rojo brought in to replace Mbia Rooney brought in cause I wanted a short term Englishman with view of getting him on staff (tough I could register Rojo, couldnt register Rooney - tried to loan him out no takers annoyingly, and as we were forced to register, decided Rojo over Rooney, and the expected happened Rooney got upset. and requested a transfer, Oddly a side came in for 225k from another Chinese side. So he will be off come January There were no outs over the summer

Youth intake Xufeng, has a fair bit of pace, his technicals needs improvment Wang Bo does not look like he gonna be useful. Why do I have a spainish goalkeeper (he not got a 2nd nationality thus cant sign him)

Much to my suprise the side managed to maintain a title winning season! We got knocked out in the Cup in the quarter finals The signing of Wang Dalei although expensive, was defo major part in how we won the league i think , along wih Mbia and later joinerd by Rojo in defence, Eddy Francis is Chinese, and he had a wonderful season in defence to attacking wise Ighalo and el Shaarawry were very good but considering they on 300k a week I would expect a little bit more We have been given 30m to spend, and I forgot on the club vision the board actually want me to spend as much of the transfer budget as possible! while keeping within the wage budget the board are aslo investing in training and youth facilities.

Transfers in After letting Ighalo contract run down we went out and got a younger striker in the form of Kaio Jorge, he is on a low wage Sarpreet Singh the NZ/Indian from Bayen for 5m imo is a bargain, he should easily fit in. Goulart is insanely expensive but considering he has Chinese nationality and has high quality, we can have him on the slot Vanderlan is a young brazilian full back that will be in the reserves. Struggling to find Chinese players who are not demanding 10M+ guess thats the prices we going to have to pay. Outs Squad The squad still has lot of older players, but I have got some younger foriegn players in Future thoughts Foriegn players Will be looking for a younger player to replace Rojo at some point Shaawary wont renew contract, so will leave on a free So will look for a winger to replace Chinese players Mainly need to seek younger defenders. And be on the hunt for younger goalkeepers as outside of Wang Dalei I feel every keeper is pretty poor

In over the summer Lot of foriegn old guys on coule 100 quid per week, they will be in the reserves (not sure other than a name and them being dirt cheap as my reasons!) Chi Leong is a 44 year old Macau He has made the registration due to Dai Wai tsun going out on loan) Zhe is a 40 year old Chinese defender who is technically okay nd will be very short term cover Robinson is a defender who will play as Rojo got unhappy and has left The British frees have joined but have returned to England on small feed loans, Will probably try to sell Out

Less points than last season, but top of table close again, not disapointed with second, as board wanted top half again. ill honestly be happy with 4th or above where we were for most of the season Gt all the way to the final of the Chinese cup where we collapsed Got to the semi finals of the ACL where we lost to pohang as we can only register 3 foriegn players in this, we ended up with some unhappy players, see Rolo and Dai Wai Tsun TheACL was won by Al Duhail of Qatar Was also shocked that we got to play in the Club World Championship (China were hosting) we were only China club in this, So i guess cause we won league we got granted a berth in this? Beat wellington easily but in our group we had Liverpool and River Plate. Real Madrid did come second in there group that had Jeonbuk and Gremio in it. PSG only massed a point in there group with Palmeras and America CF This was won by Liverpool Jorge had a nice debut season, but in terms of goal El Shaarawy did better Also Singh is a great assist king! Shaarawy has renewed at a much lower wage, thankfully - Jack Robinson aged 29 has done very well. but I feel these next few windows we need to really concentrate on chinese players. Which seem to be very expensive to sign anyone who looks decent regardless of age!

ins What does 17m get me for a guy from a CSL side? One of the better looking young wingers in the country And for 5m I get a decent young defender The rest are just under 19 year old players, who are alot cheaper but no where near as "good" as the multi million fee players Out Edwards who came in went out on a samll fee loan, other than that nothing of note Leaves the squad looking like this

im blaming injuries to wang dalei for this horrific season, but then at the same time we have not scored the same amount of goals
The Fa cup was just as bad
We came top of the CL group but the draw was unkind to us in our awful season by giving me a domestic side in the knockout
Singh only grabbing 1 assist all season is an issue. Even El Shaarawy was struggling, Jorge on other hand felt like the only brightness in the dark dull season
Our facilities including a buying of our stadium has occured since the start, our facilities currently are
We have 37m to spend next season, board still want top half.

Not sure why, but it wouldnt let me register Singh or Jorge this selection time. Because adding them meant i went over new added forigners of 4? but they are not new? tad confused.

New contracts perhaps? Making them seem like new players...?

New contracts perhaps? Making them seem like new players...? Nope, they were on same contracts. I might try to continue one season see what happens, as not found another save to get into. England/Britain/Chelmsford has somewhat lost interest there.
Do have two or three other sides in mind not yet started mind.

Just visited the save after winter patch, to see if I could get Singh or Jorge registered. Managed to register Jorge but not Singh.
So I migt continue this season, with a view of trying to go for the decent chiniese kids that are slowly coming through.
