I think it's normal that the result wasn't as good as last season because he had more games like the Champions League, give another season to Guti

Ronaldo only has a national A licence - if you get that improved his stats will go way up. Maybe get him in as a youth team manager and train him up to potentially take over in the future?

Thiago Motta is probably the best option overall, but I think Guti deserves another year. Cristiano you should get on the club though, he could become a good manager later and If you get him as U23 he could become the Assistant Manager later if needed

I'm liking the "petty Simeone" option

Is it me or does the Simeone appointment make sense; looking at his in real life track record took Atleti to the next level with them being in the Europa (not to dissimilar to us) and was able to guide and build them up and the revenge narrative fits his personality and persona and on top of that if it were real life and he has experience in France wouldn't have to relocate and Paris FC would be an appealing project irl i.e. Carlo Ancelotti taking on early PSG or even the Mourinho links to Newcastle recently

The form in February was bad and looked like the reason why it wasn't similar or more points than last season, but it was what 5-6 points less this season. But maybe there is some context to that form like injuries (or just a bad run). I think I would be inclined to give another season because the form seemed affected in one month cluster rather than it being average across the whole season, especially with the Champions League knockouts and cup final. I think after next season it'd make more sense to ask questions if needed.

Clayts. Loving what you’re putting down, as ever. Here are my key thoughts/answers to your questions. 1. Congratulations on the win. However, I’m not really pro Guti anymore. I feel like he’s taken this club as far as he can, both talent and story-wise. However, respectfully, I think some questions need to be asked of your recruitment. It’s very exciting and I like the players, but eventually you need to start supplying some players actually in their prime if you’re going to catch PSG, who are stocked to the nines with already realised quality. Not suggesting going overkill, but you get financial backing and the odd smattering of stardust, a la Martial in Ligue 2, is both realistic and essential to the next phase of growth. Someone like Manu Kone, or a proven striker to take the burden off Kuse Asare (looks great but not prolific enough yet). 2. Re the manager question, I don’t think it’s unrealistic at all to use the editor to appoint a proper manager. Within the narrative you’ve constructed i.e. that you are the director of football and Paris FC have become a champions league team, its actually more unrealistic to appoint the likes of Fernando Torres etc. with so little experience. I’m not saying necessarily get Simeone because this isn’t that kind of club, but someone like Motta or Gattuso would be exciting and in keeping with the in game logic. 3. You didn’t use the in game editor to hire Will Still, he was happy to come as it predated his real life hot streak impacting his in game reputation. I was rapt to the Spurs DOF save.

Have Ronaldo as u23 manager get his badges

Agree with a few comments mentioning Thiago Motta - and believe he is an ex-PSG player as well. You maybe need to upgrade Lafont at GK - the red cards might have had an impact in some results but there seem to be a few too many games where you concede a lot. Even in the final, Nice got 2 goals from 2 shots on target and just over 1XG.

I'd keep. Others don't look a big upgrade and Guti did seem to manage to team to a good finish

You mightve started recording and made a decision already however thiago motta looked like the coolest option in there in fairness. Having played in the league he also speaks the language of the players, keep in mind.

I feel torn. Probably a good idea to mix it up after a weaker season than last. But I feel it would be very harsh to sack Guti. I'm leaning towards one more season for him, let him have a go at the Europa League (which is probably PFC's level, rather than the UCL), and if he doesn't get top 2/3 this season, move him on.

Cup win has surely bought him one more year?

Lol man, I can't help but feel like you actually want to get rid of Guti. 😉 If you do, I think the realistic options are Gattuso, Motta, Kompany. The Simeone angle is sick but a tad too much, plus Gattuso or Motta are good stories. You gotta keep him though I reckon. But fortune does favour the bold...

I'd say get Cristiano as an U23 manager and train him up. I really like the storyline of Diego Simeone taking over to stick it to PSG 😂

Pretty normal for a first season in European football to see a bit of a decline in the competition. With the added experience and some new players to help the squad forward, I think you might need to give Guti one more season, but do keep a look out to possible new assman

Appointing simeone would be excellent lore wise - he definitely gets my vote!!

I will carry on watching either way as I like the dof idea, and it’s even better this season with psg being the target. but I am not a fan of using the editor to appoint the assistant , part of the fun and underdog story is having to think outside the box to get a well suited manager

Commenting for the algorithm

Danny, Danny Rohl, Danny, Danny Rohl!!

The Liverpool assistant is mad good and very possible to get. You should go out and try and sign him.

The redemption arc feels like something that would really fuel Simeone’s desire to succeed if he came in…..but I really like the idea of Thiago Motta too 🤷🏻‍♂️

Guti definitely deserves another year!

I'm going to start using "are you picking up what I'm putting down?" in my everyday vocabulary

Cup run and champ league stretched squad maybe

Give Guti at least until next Christmas. He has just won the cup! If he doesn't deliver good results in all competitions in the first half of the season I would go for Thiago Motta.

Clayts - Are we getting too many red cards? Is this down to Guti's 10 discipline?? Also Clayts - Hear me out. Simeone as manager? Think of the narrative 🤣🤣

I think we need to invest more in the team to get gutti more otherwise there is more special mangers in the market that's can help you like ze zarbi

I think only replacing Guti with a manager with the same rep or lower as the club is most realistic

If he wins it, he should stay, from second division to winning a Cup is amazing.

Maybe keep Guti, but... if you decide to replace him, perhaps simione to get revenge on psg.

He’s got to stay after a cup win for me

You should get Ronaldo. He only has a national A license so You can train him and his stats are gonna grow and he might become a decent manager

Use the editor to get Thiago Motta!

He just won the cup. Keep Guti!

I feel that though its a little strict, its not unrealistic to shoot higher after a few seasons. I think the best candidate is Kompany for his history with Bernly in the Championship (even if his game numbers are not amazing) But MAN the story with Simeone is unrealistic, like Zidane managing Getafe if fired from Real

I’d say give him another year. If the season isn’t ideal then I’d fire halfway through the season. But considering you had more games to deal with since you qualified for the CL, it be harsh to get rid of him.

Keep Guti, Progress is not always linear. Keep trust in him, give him at least one more season.

R.I.P Gootie

I would say keep him for 1 more season, but if not then Motta is the man to go for.

in every save a start i sign Bergkamp as assistant manager

With torres you have to give him a break. Watford love to sack a manager, they would sack anyone

Thierry Henry Patrick Vieira Keep the french vibe

It's very clear, sign Ronaldo. He doesn't even have coaching badges so, once he gets them his attributes will get a boost as well.

Ronaldo for the absolute MEMES. Simeone i think would be a bit unrealistic, if it was Mourinho that would be more realistic he'd jump at that chance. I would lean to Gattuso or Kompany.

Can you show us the dynamics screen?

pls make a career with bath city

Playing with that suicidally high line in the final 5 minutes of a final did it for me. Guti out.

Gattuso or Motta or Simeone definitely with editor but Ronaldo would also be cool. Realistically though, I'd say either Motta or stick with Guti.

Diego Simeone is the best choice!!

Diego diego

Save GUTI!!!!

pls gattuso

Keep Guti! Give him another year.

Apart from Simone u shud stay with gutin for 1 more season

Get Arne Slot

Ronaldo hasnt got his continental license yet. he can improve

keep guti

Sack the manager after progression in the champions league, staying in European places and winning a cup after being promoted fairly recently? Jeez I don't want you as my boss! Why bother taking a risk on someone new? I don't see any upgrades in that list. Even if Guti had won the league this season with PSG's slip wouldn't that be a boring short series? Gattuso is the best option but it feels cheesy to me to bring him in. I don't feel like he'd be interested in real life. Same with Simeone. I would recommend bringing in Cristiano Ronaldo into your B team though and give him his coaching badges. He can step up as a caretaker assistant manager if/when your patience runs out with Guti. I think the team needs a star striker. Potentially looking for someone who doesn't fit the profile of what you're looking for at the moment - especially if you're looking to compete with PSG this year. Team is too inexperienced

Give Guti another season

Go for simeone!

CR7 if guti fails next season

Get fernando torres

What skin is this?

Take Thiago Motta

Get Ronaldo. He plays counter press and out the back. Plus the content :)

#GutiOut - too many home defeats, bad game management as almost shown in the final. Simeone as a storyline is very good, but bringing in Cristiano, having him develop as a manager with a developing team, and creating further history is the story of a lifetime 😭 Plus Cristiano will get make a better thumbnail lol

Just sign simeone he will cook psg believe me

hire CR7💯

1 more season. Keep him. No loyalty these days smh

I mean its not like he did NOTHING this season, top of the CL and a cup win. to me its a no brainer, Guti stays

Got to go for Ronaldo

Motta

go for Marcello Galardo

I would go for simeone or cristiano ronaldo, the first one because of his ability and get revenge on psg and the latter just because it would be cool

danny rohhl

Sack the DOF

Gutti has taken the team as far as he could. It time to go

I had Dan Ashworth and Paul Mitchell in my most current save they make so many excellent recommendations

Graham Potter? Would work well with the young squad

Get him Gone

BRING IN RONALDO YOU COWARDS
