RB Leibzig vs. Bayern Munich - This is personal

Trying to stop Bayern Munich from winning the Bundesliga is a tough enough ask as it is.

The 2020/21 season saw them win the league for the ninth season in a row, and their 30th overall.

RB Leipzig was only founded 12 years ago, and have completed four seasons in the German top tier, finishing sixth, third, third, and second.

As newcomers, that's a pretty good record, as they try to close the gap at the top.

GERMAN GIANTS - Topple the kings of the Bundesliga

In February, Bayern secured a deal for promising CB Dayot Upamecano. Ok, players move clubs, it's part of football.

Then, Bayern appointed the young and highly rated Julian Nagelsmann as their manager, and they weren't done plundering the younger club's prized assets yet.

As the summer transfer window neared an end Bayern thought third times the charm, as they lured away top performer and club captain Marcel Sabitzer.

Your challenge is to get revenge upon Bayern, by using Leipzig to win the title from them.

On top of that, any time Bayern may make an offer for one of your players, you have to accept.

Hey, big spender!

Arsenal surprised many this season by finishing the transfer window as the biggest spenders in the Premier League.

Their estimated spend of £149 million was more than the £126 million of Manchester United, £108 million of Chelsea, and £106 million of Manchester City.

But was this money well spent? Currently, they have played three, lost three, scored nil, and conceded nine.

MONEY TALKS - Can big money man fix defensive woes?

Your challenge is to take Arsenal as high in the table as possible, without making any more signings.

All your money is gone!

Let's see if Ben White (£50m), Martin Odegaard (£31m), Aaron Ramsdale (£25m), Takehiro Tomiyasu (£17m), Sambi Lokonga (£16m) and Nuno Tavares (£7m) can turn things around and bring Arsenal back to their glory days.

Take your chance

There is an opportunity to be had in LaLiga this season.

Barcelona seems to be in disarray, losing Messi as they deal with their £1 billion debt.

Real Madrid is a team in transition, with a mix of ageing players and exciting youngsters coupled with a new manager.
