FM2013 Karslund story: Out of the Swedish cup, time to focus on the league

Well, as the title suggests, I got knocked out of the Swedish cup. The team performed ok, but couldn’t beat any of the teams in the tough group.

Now it’s time to focus on the rest of the season.

I’m still not sure whos going to make the start 11, and I’ll use this season to introduce some new tactics. I’ve set the tream to prepare a 5-3-2, and the 4-2-2-2 I used last season.

I really could use another central midfielder since my best one is currently injured.

Here’s a list of my first team as of right now. (Late march 2014)

Anders Brunell (GK)

Recently signed goolkeeper, who’ll be my first choice for this season.

Erik Tengroth (DR)

A solid palyer who’s been in the team since the start ( I think he started his career in Karslund), and my team captain.

Simon Aljaderi (DC)

Young defender. I picked him up for this season.

Lasse Boman (DC)

Picked up for this season, young promising player.

Erik Jungholm Melin (D C/L)

My best defender, even though he didn’t perform that well during the later part of last season.

Emil Skogh (DL)

Signed last season, my primary left defender.

Marcus de  Bruid (DL)

Secundary left defender, also signed last season.

Yosif Ayuba (MC)

Best central midfielder, signed last season, and is a key player.

Kim Kuusisto (MC)

Signed for this season, a young but promising midfielder.

Adam Botvidsson (AM R/L/C)

Solid player, one of the few remaining first team players from 2012.

Simon Leonidsson (AM R/L, ST)

Very good attacking midfielder but also a decent striker (one of my best). Had him on loan during 2013 and signed him for last season.

Miralem Malic (ST, AM R)

Signed him after the 2012 season after a loan. Right now I’m not sure it was the best signing, but I use him as a strider right now, with good results.

Christer Lipovac (ST)

Promoted to the first team after the first season, has been doing very well, even though he is young. I may not be able to keep him.

Harish Kuhi (ST)

This guy has been in Karslund for a few years, he is getting old, and I’m not sure he is good enough for the first team this year.

Adrian Engdahl (GK)

A young and promising goolkeeper. He played in the first team for most of last season, and I expect to use this guy quite a lot in the future.

Alexander Berntsson (DC)

Signed during the 2012 season. He hasn’t really performed and developed as I hoped, but I’ll at least keep him for the upcoming season.

Kadir Hodzic (D/M R)

Picked up last season to strengthen my defense. He served as a backup for Erik Tengroth right now.

Philip Olofsson (DC)

Signed during 2013, he has been doing well and will HE’ll be on rotation for central defence.

Jamie steel (MC)

I picked him up during the 2012 season, and even though he isn’t performing to well, and has a tendency to get a lot of yellow cards I have to keep him as a backup for now.

Daniel Karlsson, Bala Musa Bajaha and Samuel Mokede is still in the club but no longer needed. Maybe one of them will geta a chance to play, but not likely. I’ll release them when their contract runs out.

I have more players then this, but these are the pretty much the interesting players.

I’ll try to complete this post with screenshots later on.
