Now my third season as manager "Gaetano Scirea" starts up with the Supercoppa against AS Roma, managed by Marcello Lippi.
The preseason has been very frustrating as the budget was not at all big. I had 14,5 mill Euro for strenghening a sqaud full of older players (Birindelli, del Piero, Nedved, Zanetti, Gianchedda etc.). Firstly I had to bid on Bojinovm for the Fiorentina Co ownership. And it became pretty annoying bidding 8,5 mill. and the knowing that Fiorentina bid 0

?? (Don't do that mistake.)
Now the budget seemed even smaller. In beforehand I had planned Adriano (sevilla) and Milito (Zaragoza) as first Subjects, but not money no Adriano & Milito.

I won the SuperCoppa on penalty after 1-1.
As the cash is small I've made a new strategy, using young talented players together with old Superstars.Hopefully next season brings more transferfund, as both Nedved, Del Piero and Gianchedda looks like players that will retire.
A new feeder club-contract with New England help seeling more Merchandise, and I've also cut down the salary budget by 200.000 per month

My talents are:
Pietro Zammuto, Andrea Masiello, Diego Rana, Riccardo Perpetuini, Kevin Mensah, W. Szesny....
