1st v 2nd in the league in the cup final too ..... either team could do the double.

so there we have it for another exciting week, still plenty to play for for a lot of managers, but quite a few reality managed teams making cup finals this season, any thoughts on that ? just let me know below...

yep, good luck with that, would be a fitting way to end your tenure at Boca.

Okay transfers for me next...

Should be a good game, my defence is a bit better than last year, I am going to play my best team in the final, but I have to decide whether to rest those players, esp Borges, for the league game and chance missing out on the title to Flamengo maybe. A bit like you said with Boca you're use to winning everything with them.

coaching and finances next...

Good week all around. 3 points for Leicester, despite Capoue's latest dismissal.. Fantastic away win for Betis at Real and without doubt Betis' biggest achievement in a single game so far. Gutted to lose the cup semi to Fulham but they are still full of quality and a thumping win for Betis over a perfectly capable Valencia. Not sure it could have gone much better!

Good news is that Feyenoord still have 23 players so all the trials and swaps went through okay. 23 is the minimum size squad so any more deals will have to be swapbids.

Starting on week 22 they will be reality managed.

I'll be sending out the email turns and doing the printing in the morning.
