As promised, having finished the season on my #Spurs2013 save, I'm now switching focus to my #Journeyman career. We're in 2034, and I'm in my 2nd full season at #AFCAjax, having left European (and formerly French) champions #OGCNice for them after 3,5 seasons. Original thread - x.com/SandyTaitFM/...
One of my favourite things with retro DBs is getting player faces for those missing from the facepack, or for real players coming through in the newgen mod, and seeing what top class players looked like back when they were unknown youngsters. Recognise this lad? #FM24 #Spurs2013
When a player announces their intention to retire, I wish there was an option to simply wish them well. #FM24 #Spurs2013
Can we make it a perfect season and finish with the Quadruple AND unbeaten in all competitions?! Only one way to find out... #FM24 #Spurs2013
Completely ghosted the final (in true Spurs striker style) but still won the player of the tournament award. #FM24 #Spurs2013
Treble = in the bag.
Shame it's the lesser Treble, with the League Cup, but a treble is a treble! #FM24 #Spurs2013
Soldado has it in the back of the net for what would have been his 30th goal of the season, but the whistle goes for offside. #FM24 #Spurs2013
Like, literally.
"Hey lads, we've got a cha-"*
"Nope, #### you." #FM24 #Spurs2013

Just as Sevilla were starting to build some momentum... KABOOOUUUL! Perfect time to score, right before the half-time whistle. #FM24 #Spurs2013
Sigurdsson, Rose, Sigurdsson, Eriksen, Rose, Sigurdsson on the bounce, BOSH! Absolutely breathtaking one-touch stuff, Sevilla might as well have not been on the pitch for that one. #FM24 #Spurs2013
Dear god, that goal was Pure Lamela (tm)! Received the ball under pressure, spun on the spot to hit it with the outside of his left and whip it into the bottom corner, through the defender's legs! #FM24 #Spurs2013
And it's official - Arsenal are no longer the only Premier League team to have managed an Invincible season (in the alternate reality of FM)! And Jermain Defoe played in just enough matches to be eligible for an EPL winner's medal <3 #FM24 #Spurs2013
Well, that was a bit of a mauling. Right at the death, we nearly had another penalty, but the foul was adjudged to have taken place just outside the box. Shame, would have been fun to have Soldado get a hattrick of penalties. Penberto Pendaldo. #FM24 #Spurs2013
I'm sorry, Cardiff. It was mean of me to field a fully-rotated squad against you when you're already doomed. I should have known they'd run riot and add insult to injury 😅
Anyway - Holtby, Sigurdsson, Goal. 6-0. #FM24 #Spurs2013
SHIT! He must have a foot like a traction engine! After the initial freekick is defended, the ball's worked back to almost the same spot, new academy graduate Velkjovic lays it off for Holtby, who hits it with the fury of a thousand stars. 5-0 and we still have 30 minutes to go! #FM24 #Spurs2013
Barely a couple of minutes later and Sigurdsson is fouled again! Soldado steps up, cool as a cucumber, and sends it the other way this time to get his brace and make it 4-0 to Spurs! #FM24 #Spurs2013
Sigurdsson is fouled in the area after some lovely trickery by Holtby, and the referee awards a penalty! Confirmed by VAR, scored by Soldado, 3-0! #FM24 #Spurs2013
Holtby and Lamela combine beautifully, with the Argentina nodding home a high, hanging cross to make it 2-0 and put us in control as we head into the break. #FM24 #Spurs2013
Well that was unexpectedly effective! Sigurdsson plays a lovely one-two with the post then taps it into the empty net. Stylish. #FM24 #Spurs2013
Nearly half an hour gone and we've managed just *one* shot, which wasn't even on target. Time to demand more! #FM24 #Spurs2013
