Is anyone changing clubs from last year or is everyone sticking with same club? This is what I had last year
I'm changing to the former Steaua Bucaresti, now known as FCSB, for no other reason than my initials are SB and I'm a bit of a narcissist. Also that crest is nice.
Updated OP with expected sim schedule. I’ll do my best to stick to that and tried to avoid the double (Cup and League) on UCL days

Randomized UCL draw until we had no groups with 4 users or 1 user. Only had to make 2 swaps based on countries. SL Benfica and AFC Richmond so that there weren’t 2 Portuguese clubs or 2 English clubs in a group then Atlanta United and SV Werder Bremen so there weren’t 2 German clubs in a group and wanted to keep both with the same number of users. Group A Inter Atletico Madrid PSG FC Porto Group B Manchester United Dinamo Zagreb RB Salzburg Real Madrid Group C Sporting CP Valencia CF Rangers AFC Richmond Group D FCSB Club Brugge FC Barcelona Milan Group E Salford City Sevilla FC Atlanta United 1. FC Köln Group F Ajax AIK SV Werder Bremen FC Nantes Group G Bordeaux FC Bayern Munich St Pats Juventus Group H Kaiserslautern Manchester City Hearts SL Benfica
