I Signed the World’s Greatest Manager...

When we secured promotion to the Premier League, nobody believed that we could survive here.In fact, our good friends at the media, they had us as favourites to get relegated.But boy, did we surprise them.Signings like Harry Kane, Scott McDominay, Esri Konsa.We really became the ultimate underdogs of the Premier League.And forget a relegation battle, we were fighting for Champions League football.

In the end, we just missed the mark, finished 5th, but qualified for Europa League, and also even got close to winning a major trophy in the FA Cup.extra time our hearts were broken.And wait a minute, we've just let Artakule through and are you joking?How did he just walk through like that?And yes, a lot of memes are being made about our empty trophy cabinet, but still as a club owner, I feel like we've made tremendous progress.And now in our sixth season, if we can just get the finer details right at the club, maybe we could challenge for the Premier League, maybe even compete for European glory.

But there is a massive problem that we have.You see, the man that's orchestrated all the success for us over these last couple of years, It's our gaffer Frank Lampard.He came in with a different tactical system, had a lot of ideas in terms of signings, and I worked with him together to build this team.But as we all know, throughout last season, there were heavy rumors from Chelsea.They wanted their golden boy back at the club.And to be honest, when I confronted Frank Lampard about it, he was honest.

He was desperate to go back to Chelsea.He was willing to give S2GFC a chance if we could qualify for Champions League football.But we couldn't do it.We even lost the FA Cup final.And that's why Frank Lampard has made the decision.He's resigning from S2GFC.

For once, I don't have to fire a manager.But this hurts even more.It feels like we've just been rejected.rejected by our coach and he's heading to Chelsea instead.And sadly though it's not just him, Lampard has taken even Ethan Ampadu with him.And that too for only 30 million.

This is going to be a big loss for us because Ampadu was so so good in our midfield.But to be honest it was Lampard who brought him in.Makes sense that he's going back with him to Chelsea.The big question though is where does this leave us now?Our entire project we've followed whatever Frank Lampard has said, and I don't want us going backwards.In fact, there's a lot of discontentment even among this squad that we couldn't keep Lampard.

If we believe the dressing room dork, they've said that if we don't sign an experienced manager, they would also look to leave.So, yup.Heading into season six.As the club owner, I have a tremendous amount of work to do.And here I thought being fifth in the Premier League and of course getting to Europa League football, But let me just chill out a little bit.But nope, that is not how running a football club works.

I guess we just gotta start with the admin stuff.Cuz yeah, the club needs money.We want to go out there and hire a manager.Not just that, we need money for the signings he'd want as well.Good thing is though that we're not starting out broke.The money coming in from Ampadu is going to count.

30 million is what we'll start with.And boys, it really looks like now we're in the big leagues.Cuz we're getting that juicy Premier League TV money.That's gonna be an additional 30 million.But then because we've qualified also for the Europa League, UEFA is going to be giving us some revenue for that as well.And to start with, it's only 20 million, but for every round we progress in the Europa League, that's going to be an additional 5 million into the bank.

And just like that, the budget is up to 80 million.But of course, I'm going to really focus heavy on the Europa League, because we could end up getting a tremendous amount of money through that competition.But yeah guys, 80 million in the bank, and I haven't even spoken about our sponsors.Of course, Albie Norman, his bakery is going to continue to sponsor us.And by the way, Norman's Bakery has now gone international.They've opened up branches in America.

And guess who's heading those American branches?Good old Steve Ball.That's right, boys.He's now retired.And he's now running the American branches of Norman Bakery.That too with his wife.

So I guess Steve Ball did get the happy ending he wanted.Good for him, man.What a legend he was in the earlier divisions for us.And we're also getting a cheeky 20 million from this sponsorship.And this is crazy.We're up to 100 million pounds.

And I'm still not done yet.our deal with Plexi.But unfortunately, they're not interested after there was zero sales for the s2 GFC Lego set.Yo, why would there be sales?They were literally selling a trash can as our Lego set instead We may have found another sponsor and it's through you guys in the comments this gentleman Hashim Al -Kazemi dropped a $25 super thanks in one of our videos and said if the club qualifies for the European Championship, Kuwait Airways will sponsor it Seems like you guys enjoyed the idea of this.And since we did qualify for Europa League, made sense to take the money from Kuwait.

The deal is gonna be 25 million from them.

And also they'll probably help us sort out our flights for the European away days.But this now is our grandest ever budget, 125 million.We can really go big with a manager, big with transfers.This could be a generational season for S2GFC where we could possibly challenge for the title.And yo, I'm starting off with our goalkeeper kit.And that might be the coolest kit I've ever seen.

Nah, bro, this design is absolutely cold.And I can't lie, the home kit is also looking really, really nice.A totally new design.Although, why are those stripes giving me like Homelander vibes?But nah, this is still one of my favorite kits so far we've had.And now for our away kit.

This is what we have.I love the Kuwait Airways logo.Especially after they wired us 25 million.But yeah, a bit of a different kit.I don't think we've had this color so far.The Norman Bakery logo on the sleeve as well.

I think we've got banger kits for this season rate them out of 10 in the comments and while you're down there subscribe to the channel because I feel like season 6 is gonna be epic but now it's time for me to get on the phone because we need to hire a manager Alright, I'm first looking at who are the other managers in the Premier League and a lot has changed Diego Simeone is now the boss of Arsenal For some reason that kind of makes sense Frank Lampard of course the Chelsea boss Arne Slott is still at Liverpool Interestingly, Man City don't have Pep Guardiola as a coach And apparently that's because Pep Guardiola has resigned from Manchester City Bro, he literally won the Premier Leaguelast season but he still resigned.Do we put him on our shortlist?I think we should.Don't know if we'll be able to convince him to join us but that's an option.And honestly, in the Premier League, I don't like any of the other options.

Right now it's only Pep on my shortlist and also, another manager affiliated with Man City?Of course, Lenny.We gotta put him on the shortlist as well.Our former manager who helped us throughout the lower divisions.Now of course, we sacked him because he was tactically inept.Then he went on a footballing world tour, learning from Diego Simeone, from Pep Guardiola as well at City.

But the only issue with signing Lenny is that it's still a bit of an unknown variable.I don't know if the squad's gonna accept him.We're so used to having a winner like Frank Lampard at the helm.Already we saw Ethan Ampadu follow Lampard and leave the club.If we go with a manager like Lenny, who maybe half the squad doesn't trust, I'm sure players like Bullock, Nicolas Hart, Quashie, they'll all be trusting Lenny, because they've got experience with him, but the likes of McTominay Kane.We'll still keep Lenny as an option, but look at who's coaching PSG.

Luis Enrique.Maybe he does want a bit of a new challenge?And now I tried setting up a meeting with Luis Enrique, but yeah, he just told me to piss off.And to be fair, why would he leave the project of PSG to join S2GFC?It makes no sense.Not gonna lie, I like the option of Ernesto Valverde.

Very pragmatic coach, but look at his track record.Excellent for Athletic Bilbao in the past, brilliant for Barcelona as well.I think we should put him on the shot list.I feel like Hansi Flick has got to be an option too because currently he's managing Roma.

Surely our project will be more attractive to him.

Well, I guess not because he rejects us.He apparently does not want to be dealing with English weather.I feel like even Mikel Arteta could be an option.He's currently at Real Betis for some reason.We could bring him back to the Premier League.Come on, guys.

I don't want to be bringing Haram ball to S2GFC.That is not the kind of football I want to be playing.The more I think about it, I feel like there's only a couple of options.It's either trusting young Lenny, giving him another shot.at S2GFC, or going for greatness.Pep Guardiola, he's currently unemployed.

If we offer him an ambitious project, I have a feeling he might accept.And so a meeting has been set with Pep Guardiola.All right, Senor Pep, thank you for coming for this meeting.And you know what's coming.I've got a tremendous offer for you to become the head coach of S2GFC.

What makes you think I will join your fraudulent club?I'm the most successful manager in the world.

I mean Pep, no disrespect, but a lot of people do say that all your success is because you're going to just the big clubs in every league.

And this could be a chance to prove all of them wrong.

Taking a teeny tiny club like ours to Premier League glory would without a doubt make you the greatest.

I get your point.And I also want to get back to managing soon.But if I sign for your club, It will be completely on my terms.

And okay, I can't believe it.Negotiations are actually going well with Pep.But look at his demands.He wants complete control of every incoming and outgoing transfer.Basically, Pep is going to be completely running our transfer policy.He also wants complete control over the tactics and the squad.

And that, to be honest, makes sense.That's why we'll be paying him.

And about the payment, it's going to be 20 million for you.Okay, now this changes everything.If we pay the 20 million for Pep, it would reduce our budget down to 105.It might make it more difficult to sign quality players.But then again, we'll have Pep Guardiola running the window for us.The other option, of course, is Lenny.

And if I look at his requirements, he's okay with me making decisions transfer -wise, but he does want control over the tactics and the squad.And wait a minute, he's only charging like 50 ,000 for the entire year?Nah, bro, this is basically like having a manager for free.I guess that's because Lenny hasn't really coached a first division team.He's only been assistant manager.at City, a student at Diego Simeone's at Lenny, but that's exactly why I feel like, nah, now is not the time to go for Lenny.

We've got to pay up and just go for the experienced player.in Pep.And to be honest, I think our team will be in a better spot if we just trust Pep Guardiola.And to be honest, how many teams can say that they've had the greatest manager of all time coach them?I want to be among those clubs.And so we're agreeing to all of Pep's demands, signing the contract, and this might actually be S2GFC's greatest ever signing, Pep Guardiola is our new manager.

Now the first thing Pep Guardiola does is completely change our tactical system.Gone is the 4 -2 -3 -1 we played under Frank Lampard, which is a bit of a shame because we were so successful with that system.But this is Pep and no surprises that he wants to see us playing a 4 -3 -3 holding.Sic Pep Guardiola, the only...I don't think the players we've got in the team are exactly what Pep wants.You guys know how particular he is with a lot of positions.

In fact, he's already done his homework and he's given me a list of positions where he wants improvements.Top of the list, though, is a CDM.And not just any kind of CDM, someone who can control the game.Think of a player like Rodri or Fabian Ruiz from PSG.Also, he wants another centi -mid, more of a playmaker, because he does not think Scottie McDominay fits into his system.And that's right.

Pep Guardiola already has had a conversation with Scottie McDominay.Pep does not think he's the kind of player that fits into his setup.In fact, this conversation got pretty heated.And that's Pep Guardiola for you.If he thinks a player does not fit in his system, he'll just make him an outcast.He did that with Zlatan back at Barcelona.

He's done it with countless other players.He's completely rigid to what he wants.And it's such a shame, because I really liked Scottie McDominay, man.The brief period he was at our club, he was absolutely amazing.We won't forget you, Scottie.Y 'all good.

have to transfer list him.I know it hurts, but this is exactly what we signed up for.Pep Guardiola makes the final calls now at this club.Okay, I was not expecting this, but he also wants Jed Spence out.I feel like Jed Spence has been such a good addition, but seems like Pep wants a left footed left back.I guess it makes sense, because in this system, does not look like Pep is using the left back as like a false back.

In that case, right footed Spence would have been really useful, but that is Without two massive changes Pep is orchestrating in our starting eleven, and he's not done yet, he wants a better goalkeeper than Edison.To be honest, this I can understand.I feel like at times last season, Luka Gigante was outshining Edison.But yeah, but it looks like we've got so many positions to sort out.Goalkeeper, left -back, centi -mid, and CDM.Now with Ampadu gone, I think we should focus first on the CDM spot.

And after discussions with Pep, we've got three players on the shortlist that Pep would be delighted with.First one is Marc Casado, definitely the best player on the shortlist.26, 86 rated.From, of course, La Masia.And so Pep obviously loves that Canelo.Now, if we want to go for a more experienced option is Nico Gonzalez.

Pep actually coached him at City recently, but he's 28.The option I like the most is Marc Bernal.He's kind of different to both Casato as well as Nico Gonzalez, because he's really tall.Not like your usual Pep Guardiola player, but of course, being from Passers Academy, I'm sure he'll understand Pep's philosophy.And in terms of valuation, I think we can get him for a solid deal.And also, he's a lot younger than everyone else, just 23.

Under Pep Guardiola, he could really end up growing.like crazy?And there you go, for 42 million we've given Pep Guardiola exactly what he wants.Marc Bernal from Barcelona is joining S2GFC.Alright, that's the first signing of the Pep Guardiola era, but we still need a new goalkeeper, a centre mid, as well as a left back.Now, okay, I don't think we're gonna have time to pull off everything before our first game of the season against Arsenal, by the way, and I think it's better we sort out the goalkeepers first.

first.And I'm liking the option of Unai Simon.He's good with his feet, exactly what a Pep Guardiola system needs.Because of his age?We're signing him for a really solid deal of just 19 million?Okay, that's now two key areas that we've sorted out, goalkeeper and CDM.

Still need to work on left back and centre mid.But we are starting to run out of cash now.I guess in the next couple of weeks, the goal is to get some player sales sorted.And okay, a 5 .5 million pound offer from Manchester United for Edison.I'll take the money bro.Can't lie boys.

What a tremendous service Edison has given to this club He was such a big upgrade to Luca Gigante, but hey Pep wants an upgrade and that's exactly what we've done Okay, it's almost time for match day one against Arsenal and still no offers for either Scottie McDominay or even Jed Spence Which is really worrisome.But yep, it looks like Pep has already made a statement on the pitch.It's Albie Norman starting in midfield Scottie McDominay, he does not want anything to do with him.Similarly left back it's Jisoo starting.Here we go boys Pep Guardiola's debut he's already got the tactical board.Honestly I cannot wait to see the kind of football we play.

Already you can see it's a bit more patient build up play.A lot of passing in the midfield.We've been opened up right here and the challenge was not good but Unai Simon with the save.Premier League debut for S2GFC.Okay, I'm surprised we just went long here for Harry Kane.And by the way, talking about Kane, this could be the season he breaks Alan Shearer's record.

He's currently on 234 goals.And if my math isn't wrong, he'll need 27 goals this season to break the record, which I don't think is impossible, especially if Pep trusts him.And it looks like Pep does, because there were no talks about replacing Kane up top.And to be honest, when Kane is a striker like this, you find space, scores goals.Why will Pep Guardiola want to replace him?235 Premier League goals now for him.

I feel like with Pep, this could be a special season.where Kane breaks the record and we could possibly win the Premier League.I mean, we are showing signs.And just as I say that, Ekotike scores brilliant.Kane looking for the pass here for Charlie Pitino.He's going to try and put this one back in for Kane, who attacked it almost, but Pitino missed.

Marc Bernal is so good at controlling the game.That's what we want to see from him.Marc Bernal out wide for Scottie Bullock.This is good.Charlie Pitino testing it down well.Good couple of touches.

Back for Bullock.This is brilliant.Now if we can get the ball to Harry Kane in the box, which we do.Lovely release for Albie Norman.No, he messed it up.This is where Pep wants a better midfielder to be signed.

Okay, we keep attacking and Park Jisoo, the South Korean, is flying.Here he goes.He could get it.Got this one back.Who was in the box?Nobody was there.

Also, Pep has made some really controversial changes.He's brought off Harry Kane.Gallardo playing at striker?That is one thing I didn't realize.Without the camp spot, what role does Gallardo have in this team?And I guess we're getting the answer now.

A false nine.Pep Guardiola is trying something really different with Gallardo.Avila has been brought on out wide as well.These are the kind of brave changes that, of course, Pep always makes.Don't think with the Pep Guardiola team we're going to be that good with set pieces.Yep, the ball gets cleared.

Goals for goal!Off the crossbar and in!Nicholas Hart, oh my days!I feel like bro just wanted to impress Pep Guardiola and he's definitely done that!We might just have a goal of the season contender right here!I think I saw that from a mile away.

I feel like the system Pep wants us to play in is working.It's just that right now Pep does not have the players he needs for it.Good score, another one.That wasn't too far off.Okay, this might be the last attack of the game as Nicholas Hart has broken through here.Tries to bring it inside.

Still Nicholas Hart.Finesse shot in the 94th minute.He is out.I feel like this might be the season when Nicholas says he's the man, he wants to take the responsibility.Do you know what guys?I think we need to give credit to Marc Bernal there because he made that crucial interception that led to the goal and Pep Guardiola because of that has secured his first Premier League win with S2GFC and that too against one of the contenders for the title.

Pep is off to a good start as you'd expect.Post -match press conference though, Pep was a bit grumpy.I guess that's because we did concede two goals.And he's not got all his signings yet?But don't you worry, Pep!We're working on it!

Now, right after that game, an offer is coming for Jet Spence, about $35 .8 million.Bro, we should be able to get a lot more money for him.I know he's 30, but let me try and negotiate this.Because if we can get like $45 million or so, that could make a huge difference for us.Okay, because I think we put him on the transfer list, Arnie Slott is playing hardball.It's two ball guys negotiating right now.

Maybe $40 million could work.And yup, at least we get a deal here.Now, hoping before the Palace game, this deal can go through.Looks like it doesn't because I wanted to make that left -back signing by the way Pep Guardiola has decided to bench McDominay as well as Ted Spence for this game Hopefully that Spence deal can go through so we can then of course sign another left -back We have right now on a focus and maybe getting back -to -back Premier League wins and oh I see Rafi of a palace What a transfer that is and here is Sykes on the ball.I finally get his name right, bro I always thought his name was Skies.Okay Kane finding a bit of space big deflection Scottie Bullock driving the ball through midfield He's gonna need to play that pass for Harry Kane.

Is he onside?I think he's just about off.He anyway hit that straight in the keeper.Okay, dangerous situation.We've been opened up here.Unai Simon, what a save!

Brandon Neal, by the way, he's having a good game.He's making the most of this opportunity.Looking inside for Patino.Coming now for Avila, who's been brought on.Here goes the Spaniard.Trying to bring it inside, maybe.

Still Avila.Finding space.Going for goal and that is beautiful.I feel like Pep Guardiola.gonna enjoy coaching Ignacio Avila.Meanwhile, we're looking for Kane, he took that into his stride so well with the finish!

Come on Kane, you're chasing Shearer's record.Gotta be more clinical.No, no, no, no, no, we concede!One thing onto Pep, I will say defensively, we've not been the best.Of course, it's also because Pep hasn't got all his signings, but right now, Jisu has fed that one brilliantly for Kidd, who gets another goal!2 -36 now in the Premier League, and we get our lead back.

And Ignacio Avila breaking through in the post?I thought surely that was 3 -1 and the game wrapped up?Thankfully, we still managed to secure the win.Two wins in two games under Pep Guardiola.And also, boys, right after this game, Jed Spence has been sold.Again, he's been a great player for us.

Cannot complain at all.But hey, Pep wants something different.$40 million is what we're getting for him.Now, I think we found the perfect player for Pep Guardiola, Nico O 'Reilly.He really enjoyed using him at Man City.Left -footed in that left -back position.

But I'm not entirely sure if this is exactly exactly what Pep wants.Cause he did say he wants a wingback who can push forward.Nico O 'Reilly isn't really that.He's gonna be coming inwards more often.In that case, an option like Lewis Hall would be a lot better.Do you know what?

I think I'm gonna need to discuss with Pep about this.And he's just said that since he's coached Nico O 'Reilly before, he'd prefer to do that again.And we're doing what Pep Guardiola tells us to do.Nico O 'Reilly joins SUGFC.Although we had to bring out the checkbook for this $58 million.Not just that, the wages were quite a bit as well.

Can't lie, boys.Our defense now looks really solid.It's just that Scott McDominay, we kind of need to sell him, get some cash for him.Because yeah, without him, we've only got $16 .3 million and that's not going to be enough to sign another midfielder.Meanwhile, guys, before we get ahead, we do need to take a moment to award our best performers from last season.Starting with, of course, goal of the season.

Actually, we're gonna change the moment of the season and give it to Ignacio Avila for this absolutely ridiculous assist.I genuinely don't know.know how he pulled this off.To be fair, Gallardo's header was good as well.But we're going to give this to Avila.And of course, for that, he's earned himself the finesse shot plus, which I think is going to prove to be really useful.

And now for player of the season, I don't think it can be anyone else but Harry Kane, who was unstoppable last season.21 goals in the Premier League.And this is going to be really funny because I gave him rapid plus.Bro's got 63 plays, so I'm not sure what kind of use it's going to be for him.Hey, if it helps him break the Premier League record, we will be there.financially, but if he's available on the market, maybe we can conjure up something.

But of course, there's a lot of unknown variables.This is not what Pep wants.He's happy with Kane.He wants a midfielder.But wait, apparently clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona are circling as well.We're going to have to make a choice.
