Rebuilding for success
A new chapter from Freddy9adu's career ended. After five stunning season in charge of Smooth Criminal I am ready for the next step.With Smooth Criminal I won both Major League trophies, and I lost a controversial XCL semi-final. Much had been told about that Nasty FC games, their supperior strenght made the difference in their favour, and their huge average age didn't do it in our favour unfortunately. This team had been widely criticised, from every angle. First of all because the violent language I used to comment back then. But you should be in my position, losing a semi-final in that way, and you can judge my behaviour. Even now I am convinced that in a hipothetical final with ShadowsDT then, the way my team played, I should have a nice chance to make the surprise, because in a neutral turf everything can happen.

I am sorry only because I blamed the foreign managers, I don't really think that someone wins this kind of suspect games only because they are swedish, norvegian, english, etc. I only think that at some point, between two managers, one will be very lucky to win a suspect game, even they are of the same nationality. You see plenty of these joke games even in the private leagues.

The choice to use a young forward in the 4-5-1 system for lowering the average age, instead of a young midfielder, weaken the midfield, it is entirely my invention, I am the first manager in the game to use it, and I am proud. It makes me laugh when I see now other managers use it as well, even they criticised strongly when I used to do it.

When I saw The Crown Jewels at the Job Centre I knew that I should apply for it, and thankfully I got it.In two months actually I sold all the players, and in ten days I bought all the players I need for a proper rebuild, very talented 16 years old players. I am sorry that I cannot stayed at Smooth Criminal to do the rebuild, but there weren't the money I need, unfortunately.

My remaining goal is to win the XCL, so I want to try to build my own team for it, by my philosophy, because it is almost impossible in the last two years to take a very strong team, already build. The managers with huge loyalty and the Hall of Famers will take it. And I don't want anything else than a team capable to challenge for the XCL Trophy. I hope to be able to do it properly, so God help me !

With respect, Freddy9adu.
