DAiS Genesis

End of Season Transfer Report/Gossip

Now that the GW has settled down, we look at the transfer dealings for Season 3 from the teams. Some Major signings and shock transfers have happened and here is a run down of them all

DIVISION 2:

Trabzonspor:

Easy winners of Division 2 with a 6 point gap, which wasn’t surprising with Messi running the show for the team. Manager Ben Magee has only brought in two youth players this season, clearly with a view to saving up for some more superstars in the hope of an assault on Division 1 next term.

Wigan:

Gonzalo Higuain is the name on all the Wigan supporters lips as the club signed the talismanic front man. Also signed was Anderson Hernanes to add some flair and creativity to the team. Strength at the back will be on the mind of the manager going into the new season.

AS Monaco:

Despite bringing in key players such as Benzema, Nasri, Vermaelen, Balzaretti, Cabella and Isla, Monaco manager Mr Dhabi was unable to secure promotion this season but will be 1 of the favourites for next season's promotional charge. A defensive midfielder is high on the list of targets for the forthcoming season.

FSV Mainz:

Just the two purchases but valuable ones in Fellani and Sandro this season. Mainz will look to push for promotion under new boss Patrick Olsson

Espanyol:

A few additions at Espanyol with Gokan Inler and Bruno Gaspar being the biggest names to join the club. Davide Petrucci joins the youth ranks and the team will look to add a winger and forward next season

Leeds United:

New manager Yuri Laszlo Broggio Silva (what a mouthful) has made only a couple of purchases and both of those have been talented youngsters in the form of Osvaldo Lourenco and Wellington Aparecido. A left back is sorely needed as others have had to play out of position all season to fill the void at left back.

Cardiff:

Just a couple of additions at Cardiff where manager Dai Smout regularly gets left behind in the transfer market, none the less the team has been added to with Pablo Hernandez and Angel Di Maria being brought in. A number of players have left in order for that to happen including character Mario Balotelli

Celtic:

Transfer Information was Not available due to manager's lack of communication

DAiS Genesis

End of Season Transfer Report/Gossip

Now that the GW has settled down, we look at the transfer dealings for Season 3 from the teams. Some Major signings and shock transfers have happened and here is a run down of them all

DIVISION 1:

Atlanta:

A 9 point cushion gave Atlanta fans something to smile about as their team were crowned champions with games to spare. Manager Lee Bradbury has turned the team into a force to be reckoned with this season, bringing in such players as Sneijder, Lavezzi, Wilshere and Afellay to add some flair and attacking presence to the team. Other notable purcahses include Insua, Handanovic and Miranda with promising youngster Tom Ince also joining the team. Defence seems to be where Mr Bradbury wishes to improve the team next with a possible addition to centre midfield too for next season.

Sochaux:

A good season for Sochaux with only a few additions to the team but a solid performance throughout to finish 2nd, they will hope to close the gap to 1st next season and the acquisitions of Ramos, Hart and Marcelo will certainly help that. Sochaux are also looking to strengthen the defensive areas and depth to the squad.

Deportivo:

One of the bigger movers on the transfer front this season with quite a few new faces joining the team such as Javi Martinez, Drogba, Szczesny, Schwaab, Inui and Dawson. Some young talents have also been purchased with a view to the future team which could involve players like Kohr, Heintz, Muniesa, Rudiger and Kaminski. The depth of the squad is an area likely to see improvements next for Deportivo

Hannover:

Manager Scott Samuels secured long term target Robin Van Persie this season aswell as adding to the team with attacking players such as Kaka, Pedro, Hernandez and Sissoko. Hannover will look to add depth to the team and restructure their defence if possible to aid a push for the title next season.

Parma:

Many signings for Parma this season with the most notable being Barcelona midfielder Xavi. Arjen Robben, Hugo Lloris, Milito, Lopez also joined the team with Frank Tabanou and Coutinho joining the talented youth ranks. Parma are looking to sign top rated players to help push them up the table as while they are a solid Division 1 team they have not yet challenged for the title effectively.

Torino:

Hardly any purchases this season for Torino who will surely look to strengthen at the back and have done with the purchase of Sam Byram, Torino will look to add further solidarity to the team over the next season and hope to finish higher then the 6th place they achieved this season

West Brom:

New manager Gary Mack was unable to prevent his team suffering relegation this season, despite signing the likes of Fabregas, Bale, Paulinho, Dzagoev, Howedes and Monreal to name a few. Again depth is a key issue here and Mr Mack who is leaving the GW will pass the team on to a new manager who will look to improve the 2nd team and youth to step up into 1st team places.

Swansea City:

Not considered among the relegation candidates this season but found themselves at the foot of the table for most of the season. Manager Ashley Holtom has managed to capture a player some consider the best in the world alongside Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo will be strutting his stuff at the Liberty Stadium from now on, other players brought in include Dani Alves, Srna and Chico. Holtom has told us that he wishes to add depth to the team.

[Preppens 10,217]

Re: DAiS Genesis | Media

After a terrific start of the campaign where I won 3 and drew 1 from the first four matches. I've now landed on earth again after suffering losses to Dhabi's Monaco in the league and then knocked out of the cup by Sean's Parma.

With 4 pts up to 1st placed Blackburn and only 3 points down to the relegation zone, I believe the next couple of games will decide where I'll be fighting this season. And it starts tonight vs a Leeds that's struggling in the bottom of the table so it's very important to get a good result here to keep some distance to the clubs below me.

Other then Willian who is out injured for another week and Sandro who's fitness is in the danger zone and in need of rest, everyone else is available for selection and that includes new signing Jovetic´ who is likely to make his debute for the club tonight.

Jovetic´ who joined for Matri and Stengel is my third signing since I took over and all 3 have been 2 for one's so depth could actually become an issue if I got struck with a couple of injuries on some key players.

But I'll just have to cross that bridge when I come to it.

Re: DAiS Genesis | Media

Leeds and Espanyol square off for wooden spoon honours

As the end of the first half of the season dawns upon all the teams in Dais Genesis, two clubs see

themselves involved in a bitter fight for the last place on Division 2's standings table. Yuri Laszlo's

Leeds United, who narrowly avoided relegation last season after an inspired late run of victories is

again standing on familliar ground as they currently sit bottom of Division 2 with 4 points, coming

off the back of three consecutive losses after a promising beginning for the Whites. Tomorrows

opponents, the Spanish side RCD Espanyol coached by long date manager Marcos Vitorino, have fared

marginally better in the league so far, beating Leeds by virtue of having allowed one less goal in the first six rounds of the competition, as both teams tie on number of points, wins and goals scored for.

While the visiting team's only acquisition of the season, Portuguese up-and-comer Flávio Ferreira, should not start the match for the Barcelona side, Leeds' manager Yuri Laszlo used the off season to promote acomplete renewal of his squad, signing no less then seven players of international calibre, while ten former players were given the boot in Leeds' structural revamp, which has proven nothing short of inefective up until this point of the season, with the Whites winning only one match so far in the Leagueand getting thrown out of the Cup on penaltiy shootout after a first-round draw with Div 2 rivals Mainz.

With former Division 1 title-holders West Bromwich Albion on a divisional free-fall, currently sitting just above relegation with the same 4 points of Espanyol and Leeds, the latter will want to capitalize on this chance to move out of the last couple spots on the table in tomorrows game.

As Laszlo prepares for the match fine-tuning his squad following the recent signing of Ukranian international Anatoliy Tymoschuk off Bayern Munchen, the Brazilian manager will have to find a way to put his now stellar lineup to good use, as the club's payroll continues to escalate on a geometrical progression and theprospect of playing in Division 3 next season will surely hamper Yuri Laszlo's long term goals at the helm of the team.

Watford up or down??

A conversation has been caught on tape between watford manager craig sinclair his best mate danny dyer. While sitting in a Newcastle Casino stuffing wads of £50s down a dancers knickers and snorting a good looking crystal white powder they where caught talking about how watfords season is going!!

Sinclair spoke about a few of Watfords newest signings including Yohan cabaye and Alexander Buttner and almost confided in Danny that he is worried about watfords current standing of 6th place in league 3.

Sinclair said 'i am worried about the clubs place in league 3, even tho there is only one point between 3rd placed cardiff and bottom placed Dnipro its so tight anyone could go down' later adding 'all the clubs in the league have a strongish squad and everyone has a chance of being the team to claim 3rd and a spot on the playoffs but also every team has a chance of being in that bottom 2'

On his new signings sinclair spoke of a drug fueled party in a Miami mansion during pre season where he was introduced to an agent who has helped push through deals for Cabaye, Buttner and the 2 Brazilians Silva and Fred. Sinclair also added 'i am quite pleased with squad as a whole but i no the defence needs help and we do have a player in mind who we are talking to' that player now believed to be dejan lovren.

After the night out the 2 were spotted leaving the casino in a taxi with 2 women now believed to be the wife and grandmother of one prince william. A source close the family said both denied this accusation as neither could remember what happened tat nite other than the grandmother woke with a sticky white substance around her mouth!!!!

Blackpool Transfer News

It has been a while since players were brought to Bloomfield Road and that was for the lack of funds, but I decided that it was the time to make some changes and bring some players in my team since I want to be promoted probably this season.

As I have declared I needed some midfielders and any forward to strengthened my team.

So since I took this task seriously I made these transfers

Transfers Out:

Nolan ROUX Philipp BARGFREDE

Selling these two players to Toulouse and Bremen gave me funds to make new transfers.

Transfers In:

Rodrigo PALACIO Claudio PIZARRO Scott PARKER Darren FLETCHER

I know that these 4 players I brought in will be a big help for my team and they were a need for Blackpool to get promoted.

With the upcoming matches which will be the toughest to play we're looking forward for a chance to win a spot for division 3.

Re: DAiS Genesis | Media

DAiS Genesis tonight lost one of it's founder members when Parma manager Sir Sean resigned after being accused of making a mockery of the game world, and putting off potential new managers.

The claims came after Sean, who has only ever once played his highest rated XI in a league game(which he lost) played a weaker side than normal in a defeat against wigan.

IF the italians had won they would be top of the table now (with 2 games to go)instead of being in the relegation zone.

A comparison of how the teams would stand if Parma had won instead of lost show's that 6 of the other 7 top flight teams are currently benefiting from a better league position now, and no one except Parma themselves are worse of.

In a parting statement Sean said:

"I'd like to thank Dai for giving me the chance to partake in this outstanding league. I've met some top managers in here that I will miss(although there are 1 or 2 people who are idiots and I'm not gonna miss in the slightest.)

It''s unfortunate that it had to come to this but I am not gonna sit by and be accused of destroying a set up.

So I bid you all goodbye and good luck, and if the unmanaged Parma side move out of the relegation zone then I hope the team that take's their place doesn't take relegation too badly."

Edit: WOW dai, you got me out of that group bloody quick:D

[Guest drseanfitz]

Re: DAiS Genesis | Media

Hi lads

Am posting this on here because I had hoped to be able to say a proper goodbye on the group, but my removal from the group happened quicker than I expected (although my removal as a friend by Dai smout on the forum, in the SM game, and on facebook itself was a bit unexpected).

Given the nature of Dai removing all traces of me from his life, I’m not sure what parts of the previous conversation is left on the group – so I’ll quickly recap for those that missed it( I know Garry at least was off getting bladdered )

As you are all aware, and has been discussed several times in the group, from the set up of this league I was buying in players that I liked, rather than going for just high rated players. Players like Bartra, Nastasic, Ben khalifa and Insigne were all getting regular games when they were rated about 83-86. I even started 70 rated Matt Smith in about 7 games this season. My average rating for the starting XI varied from about 88-91, dependant on who I decided to give a game to. I was recently due to play Wigan and when I looked at the table found that we were in a unique position that a victory for Wigan would mean that if the top team lost, then there would be just 3 points between the whole division, but a win or draw for me could see me top. As I like thing’s interesting I put out a team averaging about 83/4 knowing that I would have a lot more chance of losing, and I had chances to put out players like bell who weren’t getting games for me, and if I did lose it would be fun in the division, if I won then my little boys done good. I never changed my formation to make a defeat guaranteed, and beside’s as anyone who’s played in a setup like 4 nations knows, it can be difficult to make a team lose on purpose on SM due to the way the match engine operates.

As people do in groups like this setup has on facebook, people do ‘talk up’ whatever we do. I referred to the decision as ‘deliberately throwing the game against Wigan’ something that Dai felt was detrimental to the gameworld, and would put off future managers. But instead of messaging me in private to discuss it, where we could have talked it through and maybe hit a resolution, he came out on the group saying this, and when I offered to resign over it, he then didn’t respond to that, and carried on about the good of the gameworld. So it became clear that he didn’t want me there anymore, and Dai knows from various conversations that there was only one thing I would do at this point, so I quit.

So I would like to bid all of Dais Genesis farewell and good luck. I found my time there very enjoyable, and as said in my last post, thanks for taking the chance on me. I hope the setup continues the success that so nearly earned it the title of best new setup 2012. I’m sure I’ll see many of you around the place.

Re: DAiS Genesis | Media

The Soccer Manager world was today in shock as DAis Genesis most famous club, Parma, reinstated the borderline immortal Sir Sean as their manager.

The manager has made headlines over the past few days for his outlandish actions in SM's most exciting set up, which climaxed in the 35 year old apparently walking out on the club and the setup, but his return today has set the rumour mill buzzing.

Artistic impression of how Sir Sean may have turned up at the Smout residence.

Did Sir Sean go round to see Mr Smout and use his specialist skills to persuade the Welshman to let him return?

Knowing that his gameworld was devoid of personality without Sean, did Dai beg the hunk return?

Did the other managers that were left behind miss Sean so much that they used sledgehammers to persuade Dai to bring the mighty one back to Parma?

Was it all just a big publicity stunt to boost the profile of both Sir Sean and DAiS Genesis as a whole?

Or Did the 2 of them have a chat, and realise that it's good to talk?

Maybe time will tell, or maybe it won't, but all that matters is that Andrey 'goal machine' Arshavin will be playing tonight against an exceptional Deportivo side.

Re: DAiS Genesis | Media

Pop sensations Bananarama are here to bring you their exclusive Dai's Genesis gossip column.

Ex Parma midfielder Javi Martinez is keen on a return to German club Bayern Munich. Managerial unrest at Deportivo has led the Spanish international to ponder his future.

Dnipro boss Duncan may finally have managed to get rid of highly paid pair Chiellini and Schweinsteiger. A swap deal with Swansea for their effeminate Portuguese winger is said to be close to completion.

Lorient boss Fluffy Bishop has been telling anyone who will listen about how he proved his chairman wrong, apparently in Bishop's last performance review Lorient chairman Barry Hearn told him 'you couldn't do much worse if you tried', a statement Fluffeh has gone out of his way to prove wrong.

Following this season’s promotion success Forest Green Rovers are looking to cash in by selling the naming rights to their stadium. Given there current squad fans are likely to be turning up to the ‘Tena For Men Stadium’, the ‘Zimmer Stadium’ or the ‘Stadium de Donepezil’

Game world owner and all round control freak Dai Smout has become so obsessed with polls, that he even started hiring external companies to run them for him on key issues such as scrunching or folding.

Hugely talented Dutch winger Jean-Paul Boetius is still keen to leave Parma. The youngster is expected to have a huge future in the game(see here and here), but is available for a good cash offer

.. season four. arguably the most enjoyable term yet experienced within the premier

anti

the premise behind

dais genesis

is simples.. the advent of such online sims created the opportunity for one to challenge other managers. yet, with the absence of communication and interaction, it is merely just an offline game with the expense of bandwidth. thus, with the strong belief that the area of communication, interaction and immersion accounts for at least fifty percent of the fun, i created dais invitationals|genesis.

ensuring its appeal to like minded players and encouraging the group through a framework of communicative and interactive features, it would become not only an important and enjoyable aspect of their day but they would also take the opportunities and run with them. members would not only

Can you win the title this season?"

[JOSE]

"We have a squad strong enough to be very competitive in Division 1 for a long time.

I don't expect relegation. I don't expect to win the title.

But we could win the title and we'll be aiming for that every season."

[REPORTER #3]

"Are there any teams that stand out as the strongest or weakest in the Division?"

[JOSE]

"All of the teams have quality squads. That's what makes the league so exciting.

Everyone can and will take points of each other.

"Blackburn had a slight wobble last season in Division 2.

You even said that there was no way in hell your team were going to be promoted.

You were wrong."

[JOSE]

"I'm glad I was wrong.

I was trying to take pressure off. We were choking at the time and i'd resigned myself to the fact we might miss out on promotion and the title.

Results went our way but we didn't play well in the last month.

We got lucky. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good."

[REPORTER #5]

"Why do you think that Blackburn can win Division 1?

What is going to separate your team from the rest?"

[JOSE]

"I wouldn't be surprised if there are several teams going into the final game of the season with a chance to win the title.

We've a world class goalkeeper.

Strength and depth in defense, midfield and attack.

A lot of my players can play in a variety of positions. That expands my options and allows me cover for injuries, suspensions, loss of form etc.

Division 1 is winnable for Blackburn Rovers.

It may take us 1 season or 10+ seasons to achieve it though."

"Signing Wayne Rooney surprised people last season.

His impact was immediate. Is he your star player?"

[JOSE]

"In a team sport, a manager should never build a team which relies on one player.

Rooney is very important, he scores alot of goals.

We're a better team with him, we can still win without him.

Having just signed Russian striker, Kerzhakov, he gives us another genuine goal scoring threat for our opponents to deal with."

[REPORTER #7]

"There was some controversy over the fact you didn't win the manager of the season award.

Are you bitter about it?"

[JOSE]

"No i've never made any noise about the awards.

I want the trophies for winning leagues and cups. They're my target.

Monaco's manager did a fine job.

I think both our teams will do some serious damage in Division 1."

[REPORTER #8]

"Blackburn's owners, The Venky's, have been ruthless and quick to change managers in the past.

They also have a reputation for interfering.

It was no surprise when the previous manager left.

How has your relationship been with them?"

[JOSE]

"I get plenty of free chicken to eat,

and they stay out of my way so long as we keep winning.

It's a good partnership!"

[REPORTER #9]

"Jose you're also the international manager of Cameroon.

It's safe to say that things did not go very well for you when you managed Uruguay.

Can you take the Africans to the World Cup?"

[JOSE]

"The attitude of Uruguay's players was absolutely disgusting.

The didn't put in the work necessary to win games at international level.

The Cameroon players have that hunger.

They've under performed in recent years. They want to win. So do I.

Some very talented players are in my squad.

We can qualify for the World Cup. We might even win the damn thing!"

Chronicles from Cornellà

Early goals decided the Southern Derby between Espanyol and Atalanta

Despite the efforts of the Spanish the score was decided at minute 9. A 1-1 draw at Cornellà, with goals from Inler for Espanyol and Cazorla for the Italians.

Both Espanyol an Atalanta urgently need a win so they can leave the last places of the table and try to depart for a more peaceful season. With that in mind the Spanish side took for themselves the expenses of the match and started the ball control in order to achieve greater possession and more scoring chances. Against the flow Wilshere almost scored in a long shot, but right after, Lucho González, has a greater fighter he his, managed to recover the ball and passed it to Inler that with a strong shot scored the first for Espanyol.

Atalanta had a great reaction to the misfortune and in the opening play Gomez managed to run away from the opponent and pass it to Cazorla; Cazorla with a great pass back gave G

o

mez the opportunity to score. He didn’t fail in front of Benaglio and the match was draw again.

The Italians had two more dangerous situations in front of Benaglio but weren’t able to score. On the other hand Espanyol kept pushing for better luck but didn’t have the art to transform the opportunities in goals. At 88´Barzagli had the second yellow card for shouting to the referee and was sent off. The division of points in Cornellà can be considered a better result for Atalanta than for Espanyol and both continue in the bottom of the table.

Espanyol will now play away against FC Basel while Atalanta will receive Celtic.
