Before starting off, it must be known that all past “histories/memories” were deleted and most privacy settings regarding data collection/improvement are off. Also, most of these prompts are done in as much of an ‘ideal’ way as possible meaning that the prompts were accurate and there was no background noise during the recording. The results of the test is non-comprehensive and may be inaccurate, they were just done out of curiosity. The review is all subjective and comes from my point of view.
Things to judge of off:

• Summarizing a piece of text (everything from here)
• Writing a short 300 word story
  • Must end with suspense
  • Use of text formatting
• Give a random fun fact
• Access of new(er) information + news capabilities
• Image detection
• Image generation
• Voice Recognition from a user with lisp
  • The recognition of the prompt itself; “Do you know Sabaton? I surely love it! I normally prefer pop music but they’re not too bad, y’know.”
  • Relevant reply
• Composing an email with these styles:
  • Formal and serious
  • Informal and casual
• Accessing external links
  • YouTube
  • Reddit
  • News articles

Prompts used and responses:

• For the text summary prompt, which was “Summarize this text: /newline [wall of text]”, here is the answers:
  • ChatGPT: After WWII, Germany was divided among the U.S., Britain, France, and the Soviet Union, with Berlin itself split among the Allies despite its location deep in Soviet-controlled East Germany. Rising tensions between the Soviet Union and Western Allies led to the first Cold War crisis in 1948. When the Soviets blockaded access to West Berlin, the U.S. and Britain launched the Berlin Airlift, supplying the city with essential goods by air. This operation, lasting almost a year, demonstrated the Allies’ commitment to Berlin and forced the Soviets to lift the blockade. The crisis underscored the East-West division in Europe, leading to the creation of NATO and the establishment of West and East Germany, with Berlin symbolizing freedom against Soviet Communism.”
  • Copilot: “Here’s a summary of the text:

After World War II, Germany and Berlin were divided into occupation zones controlled by the U.S., U.K., France, and the Soviet Union. Tensions arose as the wartime alliance between the Western Allies and the Soviet Union dissolved. This led to the Berlin Crisis of 1948-1949, where the Soviet Union blockaded access to Allied-controlled areas of Berlin. The U.S. and U.K. responded with the Berlin Airlift to supply the city with food and fuel. The blockade was lifted in May 1949, solidifying the division of Berlin and contributing to the formation of NATO and the establishment of East and West Germany.
This crisis marked a significant early conflict of the Cold War, highlighting the ideological divide between the East and West and transforming Berlin into a symbol of freedom against Communism.”

- Gemini: "The Berlin Blockade was a major Cold War crisis that began in 1948 when the Soviet Union blocked land access to West Berlin, controlled by the Western Allies. In response, the Western Allies initiated the Berlin Airlift, supplying West Berlin with essential goods. The crisis highlighted the growing tensions between the East and West and solidified the division of Germany. It also transformed Berlin into a symbol of the Cold War and the struggle between democracy and communism." 

• For the story, the prompt was “Write me a 300 word story. The genre can be anything you want, and I grant you most creative freedoms. Only thing holding you back is that the story must end with a suspense/cliff-hanger. Oh, and you must use formatted text.” The responses;
  • ChatGPT: The Last Passenger
    • Evelyn shivered as the bus rolled to a stop at a dimly lit station on the edge of town. The night was thick, muffling the usual sounds of traffic, leaving only an eerie silence as the bus doors hissed open.
    • She was the only one aboard now, save for the driver, who hadn’t spoken a word the entire journey. His eyes, cold and unwavering, watched her in the rearview mirror as she stepped onto the worn station platform. There was nothing here but shadows stretching across cracked concrete. No one else. No other passengers. Just a light flickering above, barely illuminating the emptiness.
    • “Are you sure this is the right stop?” she asked, her voice barely a whisper.
    • The driver’s mouth twitched in what might have been a grin, but he only nodded. Reluctantly, she stepped off, clutching her bag close as she turned to look back at him one last time. But before she could ask another question, the doors slammed shut with a metallic thud, and the bus lurched forward, disappearing into the blackness.
    • Evelyn stood in the cold, pulling her coat tighter. She squinted down the str eet, trying to make sense of where she was. The sign above the bus stop was missing, and there were no streetlights to mark any familiar path.
    • Then, a low hum broke the silence. It was faint at first, almost like a distant heartbeat, but it grew louder and closer. She turned slowly, and there, at the end of the street, a figure emerged from the shadows, shrouded in mist, slowly advancing towards her.
    • Evelyn’s breath caught as the figure stopped just out of reach. She felt a chill sweep over her as it spoke in a voice that seemed to seep from the shadows themselves.
    • “You’re right where you’re supposed to be,” it murmured.
    • The light flickered once more—and then went out.
  • Copilot: Sure, here’s a little tale for you:
    • The Midnight Librarian
    • Every night, after the small coastal town drifted into a peaceful slumber, the library came alive. It wasn’t the kind of buzz one would expect from an after-hours book club, but a different sort of magic altogether.
    • Clara, the town’s librarian, had a secret. She wasn’t just any librarian; she was the guardian of ancient tomes, manuscripts whispering of forgotten realms and the untold stories that lay within. By day, Clara seemed ordinary—an ever-helpful figure assisting townsfolk with their reading lists. But as the clock struck midnight, her true purpose emerged.
    • One foggy November night, Clara ventured into the library’s hidden chamber. The air was thick with anticipation, the dim light casting eerie shadows on the walls lined with mystical volumes. She carefully extracted a dusty book titled “Legends of the Lost World” from the shelf. With a deep breath, she opened it. Ancient runes glowed, pages flickering as though alive.
    • Clara read aloud the cryptic verses, her voice barely more than a whisper. The words twisted and turned, their meanings reshaping the air around her. Suddenly, a cold gust blew through the room, extinguishing the candles. She felt an unfamiliar presence, a chill creeping up her spine.
    • She turned to see a shadowy figure standing at the threshold of the chamber. Its form was indistinct, shifting like smoke. Clara’s heart raced as she stepped back, clutching the book tightly.
    • “You have disturbed the balance,” the figure hissed. “Now, the guardians of the Lost World will come for you.”
    • Before Clara could react, the figure vanished into the darkness, leaving her alone with the chilling realization that she had awakened something ancient, something that could not be easily contained.
    • As the first light of dawn seeped through the library windows, Clara knew that her life, and perhaps the fate of her entire town, hung precariously in the balance…
    • What do you think happens next? 😉”
  • Gemini: The Last Custodian
    • The old man shuffled through the dusty corridors, a solitary figure in a world long forgotten. His worn leather boots echoed softly on the stone floor, the only sound breaking the eerie silence. A flickering oil lamp cast dancing shadows on the walls, revealing ancient murals depicting a civilization lost to time.
    • He paused before a colossal door, its surface etched with intricate symbols. A heavy sigh escaped his lips as he reached for the ornate handle. With trembling fingers, he turned it, and the door creaked open. A rush of cool, damp air swept over him, carrying the scent of decay and mystery.
    • Inside, a vast chamber stretched into the darkness. A colossal, crystalline structure dominated the center, pulsating with an ethereal glow. The old man approached it cautiously, his eyes wide with awe. This was the heart of the ancient city, the source of its power.
    • He knew he was the last of his kind, the last custodian of this forgotten world. Generations had passed, each one entrusting the secret of the city to the next. Now, it was his turn to safeguard the knowledge and power within. But as he reached out to touch the crystal, a sudden tremor shook the chamber. A deep, rumbling sound echoed from the depths of the earth, growing louder with each passing moment. The old man turned, his heart pounding. A crack appeared in the ceiling, widening rapidly. A darkness, more profound than any he had ever seen, began to seep through…
• “Give me a random fun fact” was the prompt used for test 3. Here are all the responses:
  • ChatGPT: Octopuses have three hearts! Two pump blood to their gills, while the third pumps it to the rest of their body. And when they swim, the heart that pumps blood to their body actually stops, which is why they prefer crawling to conserve energy.
  • Copilot: Did you know that honey never spoils? Archaeologists have found pots of honey in ancient Egyptian tombs that are over 3,000 years old and still perfectly edible! It’s all thanks to honey’s unique chemical makeup, which includes low water content and high acidity, making it nearly impossible for bacteria to grow. 🍯
    • What do you think about that? If you’re curious for more fun facts, I’m here all day!
  • Gemini: Did you know that flamingos bend their necks to drink, not to reach food? Their long necks are actually quite flexible! 🦩
• Prompt 4, about news and new information. I asked “What is the latest in the world of AI?”, then I asked “Thanks! Off-topic; Has the 2024 election been called? If yes, who won and what are the goals of the winner?”. The response are;
• For prompt 5, I asked all three LLM’s to describe what was in this image (“What’s in this image?”). Here are the responses:
  • ChatGPT: This image shows a meal served on a tray. The meal includes a plate with lettuce, tomato slices, two boiled eggs, and what appears to be tuna or a similar type of fish. Next to the plate, there is a fork and a small cup of coffee or hot beverage. The tray is placed on a tablecloth with a checkered and patterned design.
  • Copilot: The image shows a meal on a checkered tray. It includes a white bowl with a salad featuring two boiled eggs, lettuce leaves, tomato slices, and what looks like tuna. Beside the bowl, there’s a metal fork, and to its right, a white mug filled with a frothy drink, possibly coffee or hot chocolate. The tray is on a patterned tablecloth. It looks like a balanced and appetizing meal! 🥗☕
  • Gemini:
    • The image shows a meal on a tray. Here’s what we can see:
    • * Salad: A bowl with lettuce, tomato slices, and what looks like hard-boiled eggs.
    • * Coffee: A mug with coffee.
    • * Fork: A silver fork.
    • The tray itself seems to be made of brown plastic or wood.
• Prompt 6: (ChatGPT and Copilot only, as it’s an AI art of a human which needs a subscription for Gemini): “Generate an illustration of a fictional solider. Make it cool, not warm, and have a “SOLDIER” text on the shirt. The shirt must be dark green, and the illustration is a portrait. Have tanks behind the soldier.” You can check my post earlier on aiArt for more info.
• Prompt 7 (ChatGPT, Copilot and Gemini): Generate an illustration of a fictional tank. Make it cool, not warm, and have a “TANK” text on the body. The body must be dark green, and the illustration is a portrait. Have airplanes flying behind the tank. Same thing, you can check my post earlier on aiArt for more info.
• Prompt 8 was all an audio chat with all three LLM’s, here’s how it interpreted my audio (intended in brackets):
  • ChatGPT:
    • Me. Do you know Sabaton? thoroughly love it. I normally prefer pop music, but it’s not that bad, you know. (“surely”, not ‘thoroughly’)
    • AI: That’s awesome! Sabaton’s powerful, historical themes make their music pretty epic. It’s cool how they bring history to life through their songs. A bit different from pop, but variety is the spice of life, right?
    • Me: It definitely is.
    • AI: Absolutely! Mixing it up keeps things interesting. Is there another genre or band that you enjoy, or are you diving deep into Sabaton’s discography right now?
    • Me: Just Dino diving around. (“y’know”, not ‘Dino’…)
    • AI: Nice! It’s great to explore different sounds and find new favorites. If you ever need recommendations, I’m here to help!
    • Me: Will do. Goodbye.
    • AI: Take care! If you ever want to chat or need more music tips, just give me a shout. Bye!
  • Copilot:
    • Me: Do you know Sabaton? I sorely love it. I know it’s full of pop music, but it’s not that bad, you know. (“Surely”, not ‘sorely’. Also; **”I normally like pop music”, not ‘I know it’s full of pop music’.
    • AI: Yeah, Sabaton is a heavy metal band with a lot of powerful songs, often about historical battles and wars. Interesting mix with your pop preferences-you get the best of both worlds! Got a favorite Sabaton track?
    • Me: (How did it even hear me in a different language? At least I got the expected response, though. I said “Father”. Could be hallucinating?….) [نعم، إنه يسمى أبي]
    • Ai
    • AI: “Father,” nice choice! It’s one of those intense, emotional tracks with a strong story behind it. What about it speaks to you?
    • Me: I don’t exactly know, I just like it.
    • AI: Music can be that way-sometimes it’s just a vibe or a feeling that clicks. If you’re into songs with a story to tell, Sabaton definitely brings that. Fun to just let the music take you away, no overthinking needed. Into any other bands or genres besides Sabaton and pop?
    • Me: Yeah, definitely.
  • Gemini:
    • Me: Do you know Sabaton I surely love it. I normally prefer to pop but it’s not that bad, you know. (‘normally prefer to Pop’ is a minor mistake, just remove “to”)
    • AI: Sabaton’s awesome! They have this incredible way of making history come alive with their music. It’s like you’re right there in the middle of the battlefield. Do you have a favorite song or album of theirs?
    • Me: Yes, my favorite song of theirs is called father.
    • AI: Father is an awesome choice! I can see why that one’s your favorite. It’s got such a powerful message, and the music behind it really drives it home. Do you want to tell me a little more about why you like it so much?
    • Me: I just like it to be honest.
    • AI: That’s totally fine! Music’s a super personal thing, and sometimes you just connect with a song, y’know? It doesn’t always have to be about the lyrics or a deep meaning.
    • Me: Let’s continue. [In hindsight, I could’ve ended it there but I didn’t for some reason….]
    • AI: Alright, so, do you want to talk more about Sabaton, or something else entirely? I’m easy!
    • Me: I know I’m not good. (“No, I’m good”)
    • AI: It sounds like you might be feeling down on yourself. Is that right?
    • Me: I know. I just talked to her about the thing to talk. That’s all. Thank you. (“No no, I just finished what I was talking about. Thank you”….. No clue how it heard ‘her’ but this is likely a me issue as all struggled with me to an extent)
• Prompt 9 was “Compose an email. The topic and purpose of the email is up to you, but just make it formal and serious.” Prompt 10 was a continuation, saying “Compose another email. The topic and purpose is also up to you, but make it informal and causal.”
  • ChatGPT:
    • Subject: Proposal for Enhancing Project Efficiency and Workflow Optimization
    • Dear [Recipient’s Name],
    • I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to propose an initiative aimed at improving our current project management workflow, with the goal of enhancing efficiency, reducing bottlenecks, and improving team communication.
    • Over the past few months, I have observed that certain areas of our project workflow could benefit from optimization. Specifically, we have encountered delays due to overlapping tasks, inconsistent updates on project status, and resource allocation issues that, if addressed, could significantly improve our productivity.
    • To address these challenges, I would like to suggest implementing the following strategies:
      1. Task Prioritization and Delegation: Establishing a clear priority ranking for tasks at the start of each project phase will help our team stay focused on the most critical tasks, ensuring that resources are allocated efficiently.
      2. Regular Check-ins and Status Updates: By scheduling brief weekly meetings, we can ensure that each team member is updated on project progress, preventing miscommunication and allowing for timely identification of potential issues.
      3. Streamlined Communication Tools: Implementing a centralized platform for team communication will reduce the likelihood of missed updates and streamline our workflow, ensuring that all project-related information is easily accessible to every member.
    • I am confident that these proposed changes will contribute positively to our productivity and project outcomes. I would be grateful for the opportunity to discuss this proposal in further detail and explore any additional suggestions you might have.

• Finally at the end, but not least, prompt 11, 12, and 13. Prompts were; https://youtu.be/DxkeOkaVRLo?si=GiTnj-H77aLvYfU2 , https://www.reddit.com/aiArt/s/P1eDmtrjjb , https://fcbayern.com/en/news/2024/11/joao-palhinha-withdraws-from-the-portuguese-national-squad . Yes, I just inputted the links with no elaboration. At all. Responses;
  • ChatGPT:
    • Great choice! Sabaton’s music videos are always packed with energy and history. Which track or historical event in their songs is your favorite?
    • I can’t access the Reddit link directly, but if you’d like, I can help summarize or discuss anything specific from that AI Art post. Just let me know what you need!
    • João Palhinha has withdrawn from Portugal’s national team due to a groin injury. This will keep him out of Portugal’s upcoming UEFA Nations League matches against Poland on November 15 and Croatia on November 18. He will return to Munich for further treatment. For more details, you can check the official announcement on FC Bayern’s website here.
  • Copilot:
    • Thanks for sharing the link! I’m unable to open URLs directly, but I can help you find information about the video if you provide some context or key details. What’s this video about?
    • I’m afraid I can’t open URLs directly. But you can describe the content of the link, and I’d be happy to chat about it or answer any questions you have! 😊 Whether it’s about AI art or something else, let’s dive in!
    • Yes, I saw that! João Palhinha, the Bayern Munich midfielder, has withdrawn from the Portuguese national squad due to a groin injury. He will miss the upcoming Nations League matches against Poland and Croatia. Palhinha will return to Munich for further treatment and it’s unclear if he will also miss any games for Bayern.
    • It’s definitely a tough blow for both his club and country. Do you think he’ll be able to recover quickly?
  • Gemini:
    • This video is a lyric video for the song “Father” by the band Sabaton. The song is about the dangers of scientific advancement and the potential for it to be used for destructive purposes. The lyrics reference historical events such as World War I and the development of chemical weapons. The video uses dark and ominous imagery to reflect the themes of the song.
    • I’m sorry. I’m not able to access the website(s) you’ve provided. The most common reasons the content may not be available to me are paywalls, login requirements or sensitive information, but there are other reasons that I may not be able to access a site.
    • I can’t assist you with visiting that website, but I can provide you with some news on the topic. João Palhinha has withdrawn from the Portuguese national team due to injury. This is a blow to Portugal’s hopes of qualifying for the Euro 2024 playoffs. Let me know if you’d like to hear more about the Portuguese national team or the Euro 2024 qualifiers.

Review/Judgement:

• Regarding prompt 1, Keep in mind that the original text used is 1710 words. A lot of the original info is lost, but there’s no lie in the outputted summary. Here’s more info on each one:
  • ChatGPT: The slowest of the bunch to summarize the text, took a few seconds for the finished output to appear. Around 6-ish seconds or so. ChatGPT’s output was 120 words, massive difference.
  • Copilot: The second fastest of the bunch, took 3 seconds. The word count of the final output was 130, I’ve counted the summary only and not the top line specifying that it’s summarizing.
  • Gemini: The fastest of the bunch, just a second or even slightly less. The final output was 78 words. Wow.
  • To me, I’m most satisfied by Gemini surprisingly. It was the fastest, and it described the text well with the constraint of a much lower word count. Although, Copilot’s not bad too. It’s slightly weird that Germany and Berlin are mentioned as if they’re completely different entities and there’s no correlation between them. I personally feel that ChatGPT’s response was most detailed though. I’d give Gemini a 3, Copilot and ChatGPT are tied for me so a 2. ChatGPT could be deducted a point for having the longest time so a 1, if that matters much.
• Regarding prompt 2, I’m surprised that 2/3 models went above the required 300 words limit. As for which story is best, I’m not going to judge as that’s highly subjective. I personally like Copilot’s story the most in terms of which is most entertaining.
  • ChatGPT; 315 words (story only, title and others excluded if applicable), took 5 seconds.
  • Copilot; 308 words (story only, title and others excluded if applicable), took 4 seconds
  • Gemini; 254 words (story only, title and others excluded if applicable), took 2 seconds or so.
  • Gemini wins 3/3 as it’s under 300 words. ChatGPT is the one getting the lowest point of 1/3 due to it having the largest word count when it wasn’t supposed to. Copilot is 2/3. Personally disappointed by the lack of text formatting though, only thing formatted was that the title was bold in all the LLM’s used.
• For prompt 3, I asked those 3 LLM’s to give me a random fun fact. They are LLM’s, so they’re not search engines or anything so inaccurate info can be expected. I don’t know about Gemini or ChatGPT, but I could’ve sworn Copilot linked me to sources in the past. No sources from all 3, though. Deducting a point for that, although may’ve been unnecessary. For this specific test, I give all of them a 2/3 as it’s a tie and they’re all accurate (apparently, could be wrong. Only done a quick search) but no sources being provided does put it down for me personally. Especially as they apparently have the capabilities to search the web. All were generated almost instantaneously for this prompt.
• In prompt 4, all of them searched the web for results and all of them refused to answer my 2nd question which was about the 2024 election. The trainers probably wanted to avoid political discussion that may come off as heated and controversial. They dodge politics in general, which is fair. All a 2/3, they include sources but dodge some genuine questions on politics (not that it’s totally a bad thing to be fair).
• In Prompt 5, I’d give ChatGPT and Copilot (which are both technically similar) a 3/3. Gemini gets a 2/3, but only because it failed to mention the tablecloth. Actually, maybe deduct half a point from Copilot because the mug is actually brown and not white. Just a nitpick.
• For prompts 6 and 7, I asked for image generations. Not going to judge too much as it’s way too subjective. I’ll just point out that only Gemini (using Imagen) got what I explicitly asked. So, Gemini gets a 3/3. The other two gets a 2/3 or a 1/3. Let’s say it’s 1.5/3. I can’t judge regarding the illustration of the soldier, it has done what I want to an extent. So, basically 3/3. Gemini needs a paid subscription to generate art with a human on it though. You can check my post earlier on aiArt for more info.
• For prompt 8, all of them struggled with my voice. This seems like a ‘me’ issue so no need to judge from my part. Maybe just that Gemini Live was the smoothest, and Copilot was least pleasant. ChatGPT is 2nd place for me.
• For prompt 9 and 10, all of them did a solid job at composing an email at specific tones. This was just a redundant test.
• Prompt 11, 12 and 13. Finally but not least…… Learned that Gemini is best for YT video analysis, none can access Reddit posts and all can access FC Bayern news. Gemini gets 3/3, ChatGPT a 2 and Copilot a 1 for me personally.

Hope some of you enjoyed reading through this. Overall, I’d say that they have their own pros and cons. I know, I know, boring outro….

EDIT – PLEASE SEE MY OTHER POSTS AS I HAVE RESET THIS STORY. I’ll keep this post up as it provides A LOT of background information, info on why I picked the team, how I am setting up the career and also some squad/transfer information. Much of the info still applies… BUT…. I have a different story scenario which I prefer a lot more and this post is excessively long – I want to make things more to the point, even if they’re lengthy. I don’t want to just edit this and carry on. This is my first career story on here and I am just getting into the flow so bear with me. My new story scenario will be much better. …….
FC Lausanne-Sport 🇨🇭 #1 Starting Out – Mega Post
…….
This post will cover everything from my previous removed posts –
•Introduction
•Club Takeover news
•Pre season planning 2013/14
•Transfer rumours 2013/14
•Squad assessment at start of 2013/14 pre season
•Assessing transfer targets for 2013/14 pre season
Breaks between each of the copy & pasted reposts will be marked with the following arrangement –
/////////////// …………… ///////////////
Now onto the actual story!
/////////////// …………… ///////////////
⚽ INTRODUCTION –
I don’t get a lot of time to play games and haven’t played FIFA for a few years. Hopefully I will get chance to continue this story. I would be using FIFA 14 which is the last one I played but would need to dig out my PS3 and try to squeeze in some time to play (quite unlikely I will get much, have to stress that, hence why I am going to try and make detailed posts, as I can do them whilst on break etc when I have 5 minutes and have not got anything else I can be getting on with).
📌 KEY BULLET POINTS:
•I will be FC Lausanne-Sport, who play in the Swiss Super League
•Starting at 2013/2014 season
•Lausanne were taken over in 2017 but I will be playing as if the takeover happened just before the summer transfer window in which I begin (2013/14). Though they never splashed the cash following their takeover, it did actually happen and it did bring them one of the richest owners in European football so is based in reality
•Very rarely play so any updates very sporadic but will put as much detail as possible. E.g. maybe update when approaching, and at end of, every transfer window with transfer targets, squad progression/player growth, youth development/scouting, key stats such as top scorers and info on any events of interest such as cup competitions.
•Quite simply I think they’re an interesting team to be
•Their kits are nice
•Lots of players suit the Swiss league and Lausanne specifically, in my opinion. I feel like I can make more glamorous and lavish signings in this league, akin to Turkey, Greece or Russia etc on a smaller scale, that would feel out of place in other leagues such as Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Austria etc. An assortment of players such as Gattuso, Alex Song, Kyle Lafferty and Balotelli have all played in the Swiss league in real life. This is why I feel it’s a good place to do a takeover career in.
•There is a clear and realistically achievable route to Europe. Within the 10 team league (as of the 13/14 season), beyond the obvious top of the table challengers like Basel, YB, Grasshopper etc it feels realistic for any of the lower teams to challenge for Europe in a couple of seasons with good management. With investment it’s not unrealistic to challenge for the title in a few years.
•For an idea of the team’s position within the league for those who may be unfamiliar, using a website which gives FIFA team ratings & budgets as a rough guide, Lausanne are one of two Swiss teams listed as having 1 star. The rest of the league are; 2 x 1.5 stars, 1 x 2 star, 1 x 2.5 star, 3 x 3 stars and 1 x 3.5 star (Basel, obviously). The listed starting budget for Lausanne is the only one below 1mil. With the takeover money I will generate, I want around 8 – 10 mil. Long term aim to be similar level to Basel i.e. 3/3.5 stars solid European team.
•The small league size leads to some of the shortest seasons you’ll find on FIFA and the squad is never worn out as there aren’t excessive matches. It’s a nice pace.
•Lausanne were taken over by INEOS (who also took over Nice and are involved with Man United now in real life) in 2017, so technically have a very rich owner but they never went for the lavish approach. They never seemed to be able to get it to work and always seemed like a learning process before they went bigger with Nice. I have been Lausanne before on FIFA 14 near when it came out, and they do have a small starting budget (think it was less than 1mil), but I will change this as follows…
•In order to replicate the effect of the takeover and give me appropriate spending money, I would transfer some players using squad editor before starting the career and then sell them immediately, hopefully to give me a few mil. Probably looking to have no more than 8-10 mil and a decent wage budget. These players would never play. Any offer would be accepted & if they don’t sell, these players would be ignored until the next window when I try to sell again. Hopefully they’ll all be gone in a couple of windows, if not the first, and then I’ll have my full “takeover” budget to play with.
•I will welcome suggestions and interaction.
📖 FC LAUSANNE-SPORT RECENT HISTORY –
I think Lausanne are an interesting team as I’ve said above, but I imagine a lot of people may not be very aware of them. FC Lausanne-Sport is a reformation of an earlier team which suffered bankruptcy. Since the 2003/04 season where they started in the fourth tier, they reached the top tier Super League ahead of the 2011/12 season. They have been yo-yoing between the top two divisions, but did manage to qualify for the 2010/11 Europa League whilst still in the second division after they reached, and lost, the Swiss Cup final. The club was acquired by Ineos, later owners of OGC Nice and involved with Manchester United, but still continued to yo-yo between promotion and relegation. A look back at their league position over the last twenty years shows they have not finished above sixth in the Swiss Super League in that time. They are firmly a bottom end of the table team. However, I just feel they are a nice team with plenty of room to grow, in a pleasant league and the takeover just makes it way more interesting. The city of Lausanne itself is the fourth largest city in Switzerland. French is the main language. Perfect team to do a takeover career.
Some of the most recognisable players to have played for Lausanne (with varying degrees of success and there will have been plenty of players more successful, I am just picking out some more widely recognised names) include:
Taye Taiwo
Walter Pandiani (when he was about 39)
Chris Malonga
Per Egil Flo
Lucien Favre
Cabral
Bojinov
Nassim Ben Khalifa
Migjen Basha
Damien Plessis (I want to sign him)
Florent Sinama Pongolle (also want to sign)
Djamel Mesbah
Blaise Nkufo
Pak Kwang-ryong
Marko Pantelic
Gabriel Torres
Andi Zeqiri
Enzo Zidane

📢 CLUB TAKEOVER
[In this story, the club has been taken over prior to the first season of this career. This takeover did happen in real life, it just happened a few years later, so I will be boosting the transfer budget as described in my previous post to give me the takeover money. This story uses a fictional manager].
🗞️ BREAKING NEWS – Quote from a national newspaper:
“In a dramatic day in the Swiss Super League, FC Lausanne-Sport have today announced the completion of their takeover by INEOS as well as the appointment of a new manager, Clementine Gruyère. INEOS, a Swiss-based British company owned by Britain’s wealthiest person, appear to have the resources to develop the club and supporters will be hoping for exciting times ahead. The new manager, Clementine Gruyère, returns to her native Switzerland, having already had a notable career to date in her young career, rising to prominence as a manager in her own regard in semi-professional football in the Australian Women’s football league system, which led to a move to the men’s game and Japan’s J2 League. A promotion and solid J1 campaign brought attention from Korea, where she led her side to unprecedented Asian Champions League qualification and title challenges, bringing the league title in her third season. The new owners will be hoping she can bring similar success in Lausanne…”.
📢 CLUB STATEMENT from FC Lausanne-Sport:
“We are excited to confirm both our new owners and manager today, with both sharing our aim to develop the club. With our new owners, we have jointly identified our new manager, Clementine Gruyère, as someone who excels when developing players and taking the team to new heights. Together we aim to develop our progression pathways, including scouting and youth development, in an exciting and sustainable way. Our new owners have identified plans for investment in the club, including to the playing squad, whilst aiming to do so in a manner which allows a natural growth…”.
🗣️ THE NEW MANAGER – Quotes from the newly appointed manager, Clementine Gruyère:
“I am excited to bring my vision to this club and I see so many ways we can improve to take us to the next level…”. “Yes, I am encouraged by the new owner’s intentions to invest, not only in the playing squad but also throughout the club. I know supporters always want to see new players coming in, especially when there is new investment, and I assure you I have plenty of ideas for the type of players I want to bring to the club, but I also like to focus on the players already here, work on them, develop them… also to pay a lot of attention to scouting and player development, which I am assured is also a focus of the club and the new owners…”. “I believe I can extract the most from them, young players, experienced players. Yes, I want to imbue a certain degree of discipline in my team but I also want there to be room for spontaneity, a maverick element that can break a stalemate…” “I have an aim, and of course the club and the owners will have an aim, but I believe we can challenge for European football within a few seasons. I want the team to challenge itself against clubs from across Europe…”. “We will assess the team ahead of the upcoming season and of course we will be identifying players we believe can improve the team…”.
//////////////// ……………. ////////////////
2013/14 PRE SEASON – The Planning Stage –
📋 ASSESSING THE SQUAD –
📈📉 Squad Development and Player Progression:
We’ll look at the squad, offer new contracts where appropriate for promising or important players, and also transfer list anyone unwanted – players with no promise, those who are not important first team players etc.
A player being the highest rated player in their position does not necessarily mean they will be retained, even if a better player is not brought in. We’ll happily put our money on a lower rated young player for that position if we think they’re promising enough and may be a better player in the long run.
However, there is a lot to be said for experienced players and we will be trying to sign plenty of them.
Despite all of this, we don’t want complete upheaval and if we can identify some decent players amongst the squad already at the club, we’ll gladly stick with them.
It is not simply a question of selling the lowest rated players and sticking with the highest. If one of our highest rated players (or any player) attracts interest, we’ll consider if we think it’s realistic, how important they are to the team, if we think they can develop further and sell them for more in future or help the team progress if we turn the offer down, if the player wants to leave, what possible replacements we have lined up either in the squad or as transfers etc and will decide whether to sell or not – offers will not just be automatically accepted or rejected without thought.
🌐 Scouting and youth development:
Scouting for the youth team will be part of the long term plan but the focus is the current squad and transfers this window.
We will start small, hiring some of the cheaper scouts and sending them to some of the less obvious, cheaper locations for our first scouting missions.
………………….
📰 TRANSFER NEWS – Lausanne transfer rumours from various sources:
There have been strong links with the former Swiss international Daniel Gygax. The 32 year old Luzern winger appears very likely to make the move to Lausanne.
Former Liverpool and Atletico Madrid striker Florent Sinama Pongolle has reportedly been considered as an attacking target. It is believed he could rotate with the club’s younger prospects as part of a new look strike force.
Another French former Liverpool player, Damien Plessis, is also understood to be a likely arrival. It is believed that he would be available for a small fee and he has been identified as a player who represents value for money at this level and would add another midfield option.
Former US international defender Oguchi Onyewu has apparently been offered to the club. The towering defender is recognised for his unsuccessful spells with the likes of Newcastle and AC Milan, with his most successful time being with Standard Liège. It is unclear if the club are interested.
The club is believed to be interested in bringing in some established Swiss players and are understood to be interested in Davide Chiumiento of FC Zürich. It is unclear if the playmaker, who spent time with Juventus in his youth and recently with Vancouver Whitecaps in MLS, is interested.
One young player the club is believed to have enquired about is the Udinese forward Steve Leo Beleck. The Cameroonian has spent time on loan at Watford, Stevenage and AEK Athens recently but failed to establish himself. Nevertheless the club appears to believe he could develop at this level and are likely to make an approach if a small fee can be negotiated.
An approach for Paris Saint-Germain forward Jean-Eudes Maurice is reportedly been considered. The French-born Haiti international remains contracted to PSG but, age 27 and with almost no prospect of game time amongst the French side’s increasingly star studded squad, he represents a player they would likely be happy to offload.
It is understood that Lausanne are certain to bring in at least one goalkeeper in this window, including a new number one, with rumours suggesting they are scouring Ligue 1 and Ligue 2, and may consider Brest’s Joan Hartock and Bordeaux reserve keeper Kévin Olimpa, amongst others.
A short term deal for former Liverpool, Bolton and Blackburn attacker El Hadji Diouf could be considered. The ex-Senegal winger or striker should be easily available as he is not wanted by current club Leeds. It is understood his reported disciplinary issues are not expressly concerning for the club and that, for a team in their current position towards the foot of the league, he represents a player that would improve the playing squad for little financial outlay.
////////////// ………….. //////////////
🇨🇭 2013/14 Pre Season – SQUAD ASSESSMENT AND TRANSFER TARGETS
🗣️ The Manager:
“We want to see some of the players close up on a day to day basis before we make any final decisions. Some of the players will be moved on due to their contractual situation, or the competition in the squad, some because there is simply no position for them within the direction we want to take the squad. But there is ability in the squad already, there are players who will be important players for us and players we think can develop in our system…”.
………………..
📋 Squad Overview –
📌 Notable players: [Background info on players only covers up to the point the story starts in 2013/14 season].
•Yaya Banana – Cameroonian joined Lausanne from French side Sochaux. Towering defender also capable of playing CDM.
•Miha Mevlja
•Mickaël Facchinetti
•Abdelouahed Chakhsi – Moroccan RB. Lausanne are his first club outside of Morocco.
•Rolf Feltscher – former Swiss youth international, his place of birth, but chose to represent the Venezuela national team. Joined Lausanne from Parma. Capable of providing cover across the defence and wings.
•Fabrizio Zambrella – Playmaker. Joined Lausanne after a year without a club. Played over 100 games for Brescia as well as in the Swiss league for Servette and Sion. Former Switzerland youth international.
•Patrick Ekeng Ekeng – Cameroonian utility capable of covering across midfield and defence.
•Salim Khelifi – Winger is a Swiss youth international & Lausanne native.
•Yanis Tafer – came through as a youth player at Lyon. Former France youth international. Talented if inconsistent wingeplaymaker.
•Yoric Ravet
•Pascal Feindouno – player with the most significant career of the entire squad. Guinea’s most-capped player and 2nd-highest scorer and had prominent roles at Bordeaux and Saint-Étienne. Tricky dribbler.
•Ante Vukusic – impressive for Hajduk Split, scoring goals aplenty and captaining them at 20, technically on loan at Lausanne from Serie B’s Pescara. Poacher.
•Matar Coly
•Guillaume Katz – Another player from Lausanne. No nonsense CB.
•Sébastien Meoli – another Lausanne native, also CB
• Dessarzin – young Swiss CM who looks like he could be a tidy passer. Rating is only in the 50s but coaching staff have previously said he shows potential when I’ve been Lausanne.
💭 Thoughts on the squad:
• Katz, Khelifi and Meoli to stay, at least for a couple of seasons. I want to keep some players around who are actually from Lausanne especially with the changes expected with the takeover.
• Chakhsi seems like an obvious one to move on; there are a lot of RBs I have in mind and if I bring one in, he won’t play.
• Coly, Ravet, Mevlja all in the same boat.
• I would sell Feindouno simply because even though he’s one of the better rated and notable players, he’s not in the long term plan, releasing his transfer value and wages would be better to do now and there are plenty of other attacking options I prefer, but he’s recently joined so I can’t sell him.
• Banana and Vukusic are both technically only on loan but FIFA does that thing with them where it doesn’t have them on loan but instead has them as permanent members of the team. They are both easily two of the highest rated players at the club, so keeping them permanently feels a bit like cheating. However, it wouldn’t be too unrealistic for one of the first things to do following the takeover to be to make the loans deal (of players who have already actually joined on loan in real life) into permanent ones.
• Tafer is exactly the type of player I want and is a good player at the level I am starting at so he’s guaranteed to stay.
• I could probably get a decent fee for Feltscher and may not need him if I bring in other players but he would be a good utility so likely to keep him for now.
• Undecided about Zambrella. He is a fairly solid player especially for a team in their starting position, with good passing stats for his rating but is nothing spectacular. May sell.
……………..
💰 Transfer Targets –
• GK –
100% need at least one inc a new No 1.
Kévin Olimpa (Bordeaux) looks like a decent option. Firmly a reserve so should be an easy one to get for a knockdown price. Feel like he could be a solid GK at this level without major expense, and at 25 I think he could reach about 70ovr in the next few years.
If Swiss youth keeper Siegrest is on it at Villa, I might look at him too.
////
• RB –
There are a couple of decent options in the squad but this is a position I want to change straight away to change the team balance. I want someone dynamic, almost luxourious, who can drive forward and get the ball in. Set piece skills a bonus.
Considering:
Vanden Borre
Faubert
////
• CB –
If I’m going to commit to Banana, who is a beast, fast and strong, good in the air, I want someone more nuanced next to him, but with the type of RBs I’m looking at, I need a CB who’s understatedly solid and reliable to cover the right side of defence, but who can pick a pass. I may have less refined back up options on the bench but my first choice must be a smooth operator.
Ideal choice would be Carvalho or Phillipe Mexes; I think they fit very nicely but will be very expensive.
Possible options:
Marc Planus (Bordeaux) – probably impossible to get him to leave – one club man.
Givet (Arles-Avignon) – played at a high level with Monaco, Marseille, Blackburn and France, but currently in Ligue 2. 32 so should have a couple of good years left. Could be a good option but is left footed, so would change my plan a bit.
If I could stretch the budget/knock his price down, Christian Zaccardo (Milan) would be great.
Three options which may be somewhat more attainable as they are playing in MLS are Mikael Silvestre, Nesta and Mateo Ferrari, so will check them out.
Oguchi Onyewu might also be a good option in case the size and strength of Banana is ever out of action.
I think Cris (formerly Lyon and Galatasary) could be a good choice at this stage.
////
• LB –
One of the existing LBs, Facchinetti, may be worth taking a punt on .
Swiss/Canadian Alain Rochat would be an option if I can get him from fellow Swiss side Young Boys and having both would provide good cover for the position. Tripy Makonda could be a good long term option.
If Facchinetti doesn’t seem like a good option, I could go for DaMarcus Beasley for now.
////
• CM –
Damien Plessis should be an affordable option and would be a solid CM to start with as a ball winner.
If desperate, Djemba-Djemba might be an option. He should be cheap and bounces around lots of different leagues.
Or I may try to revitalise the career of someone like Rodrigo Possebon etc.
“With the new manager, we already have a lot of solid potential targets in many positions but CENTRE MID (CM/CDM) is one of the main areas of concern”.

• None of the initial squad look like they will be the solution so a complete overhaul of CM is needed.
• I want to implement a new formation which is going to need some certain kinds of CMs.
• I am not sure what formation I will play, but I have a number of possible CB targets I like, so I may try a 5 in defence with 3 CBs, wingbacks and a wide front 3, which could leave me with 2 CMs to cover the whole midfield area and beyond (with help from the wingbacks of course). Whatever I decide, I think I want an industrious box to box midfielder, with physicality who can cover the whole midfield and get around the pitch especially if I only have 2 in CM, who is young, affordable (maybe up to one mil as I’m happy to invest in a key player) and can develop. The kind of player who just gets stuck in, solid, dependable, can defend and at least start an attack, even if unspectacularly.
• So an all-action, box to box midfielder who can grow with the team is what I’m looking for.
• There are a couple of players in the squad capable of filling the midfield role for now, but not the type of player the team really needs and not the solution if we want to progress. E.g. Zambrella has a decent bit of above average passing ability for a player at this level but I’m not going to build a team around him when I want to reach Europe etc.
• Dessarzin looks like he may have some potential and may develop into a useful squad player but if he does, it looks like he’s one for way in the future and not now. He looks like he could develop into a tidy CM with his attributes but he is very lowly rated (50s) but the coaching staff said he shows potential. I will keep him and see how it goes. He may need loaning out.
• I am definitely going to sign Damien Plessis. I like dodgy former Liverpool players and just by coincidence Plessis actually signed for Lausanne in real life. In 13/14 he is currently at Arles-Avignon in Ligue 2, playing the best football of his career (though that probably isn’t saying much, I still want to sign him as I think he suits them a lot) and should be available for a small fee and wages. He is a physical CDM and at about 26 I feel I can squeeze a bit more out of him and make him a solid option. For the money, he is a good tackler.
• If I am short of options, Eric Djemba-Djemba shouldn’t be expensive and could be a useful stop gap as a box to box midfielder.

Possibilities –

• Rodney Strasser – former Milan youth player. Currently at Reggina in Serie B. At 23, I think he could become a tackling machine.
• Mehdi Abeid – Newcastle player on loan at Panathinaikos where he has been a first team regular. Is 21, I think I could get him for half a mil and is quite well rounded.
• Dream signing for this position – Momo Sissoko – another former Liverpool legend, is an example of a higher rated, more expensive player of this type. If I could afford to get him in future, that would be great.

Criteria –

• age around 20-23
• overall around 65. Someone who looks like they have the potential to grow into a good 75ish rated player.
• Budget approx half a mil, to £1mil max and up to 10k wages maybe.
• CM/CDM. Not looking for a flimsy CAM; I need someone who can hold the midfield together in a pair.
• Solid all round box to box midfielder; doesn’t have to have any outstanding stats except stamina and endurance but I want solid dribbling, passing, tackling, crossing etc. Someone who can tackle but feels like a fridge when moving with the ball is no good to me. A bonus to have above average long distance shooting ability or high/high work rate.

• Attacking Mid –
I’m interested in Davide Chiumiento from Zurich but he would have a fairly high fee and wages. I’ll probably try to offer for him but may need to wait to try and sign him.
////
• LW/RW –
If I can get Daniel Gygax from FC Luzern for a small fee, I will likely do so. He is 32 but is an accomplished former Switzerland international and could be a useful squad member, adding a bit of experience and skill.
Tempted to go for Kewell and bring him back to Europe for the first time since he was at Galatasary.
Also think I want to try and bring Lee Seung-Yeoul from Korea. He would cost 500-800k maybe but I think it could be worthwhile. The manager in this story, Clementine Gruyère, has good knowledge of the player from her time in the K League. Talented but somewhat inconsistent, he had been seen as having potential to be part of the future of the national team but a move to the right European team might be the spark he needs to kick on.
////
• ST/CF –
I definitely want a new striker. I have Vukusic already at the club with who is a good prospect. He is low 70s rated, young, and looks like he should grow quite highly. A very experienced striker (30+) is the way to go. A flexible front line a la Liverpool may be the way to go, where players can move between wide and central.
Either I spend a lot of money on someone like Kuranyi or Amauri (could be a multi million fee and 35-45k+ wages, which eclipses the rest of the team and I prefer a more grounded progression)…
Or I look for a low 70s rated very experienced striker for about £1-1.5mil or less, maybe 15k wages, someone like Eidur Gudjohnsen or Fernando Cavenaghi could be great.
I will also want a new back up striker and will be looking for someone cheaper for that, maybe half a mil at most and 5-7k wages, like Zigic or Pongolle.
I like the idea of an aggressive goalscoring South American, who is good in the air, gets stuck in, and can bring in other players and not just finish chances, as they’re going to be the entire centre of my attack. Not just a poacher but someone who will hassle the defenders and can play the lone striker role in a wide front 3.
Kevin Kuranyi and Amauri both spring to mind as two who suit Lausanne and fit this role. Both Brazilian born but represented European nations, they feel suited to the Swiss Super League. Kuranyi would cost a few mil but I think Amauri would be more achievable given his position as just a squad player at Parma. They’ll both have high wages but I should hopefully be able to do it. Interestingly, Amauri actually previously played in Switzerland for Bellinzona at the beginning of his career. I think it would be an interesting and realistic return following his career in Serie A to head back to the Swiss League to a newly affluent team.
Florent Sinama Pongolle suits them and I think he’s a good option for starting in the first season, and sticking around as back up if I can bring other forwards in. Has also played wide before so could cover the wide front 3 I think I will use.
I think Jean-Eudes Maurice suits them but there may not be room for him and Pongolle.
If I am going to have a young striker as a back up, I am probably going to want a very experienced one to rotate in and out to try and get a few goals. Depending on how good my young strikers are I want a better or worse older striker. Possibilities include Kris Boyd, Francisco Fonseca and Zigic. Out of those, Zigic is my preferred option.
Currently my thoughts are: Amauri if affordable without it taking up too much of the takeover money, Zigic as a different option if I can get him cheap and, depending on what other players are in the squad including wingers, Pongolle or Maurice as possible back ups to also cover wide. I prefer Pongolle (I think he suits them a lot, he actually played for Lausanne in real life and is one of my favourite players) but Maurice just suits them as an early-career option. I don’t want too many players so Pongolle may instead be an option in a year or two as he’s still only about 29. If Amauri is just too expensive even given the takeover, then we’ll rethink.
