A mix of abilities in this division meaning there is already a 15 pt gap between top and bottom after 5 games!
Lisbon look dead and buried already!
2nd - Skittles - Shaktar
P4 W3 D1 L0
After a disappoinintg campaign in Season 4, the Ukrainians were pleased to keep Skitz on for another season - and with his experience I expect promotion!
Just a 0-0 with Galatasaray preventing a 100% record in the month ..
1st Warthog - Valencia
P4 W4 D0 L0
A strong first full month back in role for Warthog - after leaving the Spaniards at the end of Season 3, they were relegated last season and persuafed him to rejoin ..
100% record, hard to play against but could score more goals .. what a tussle this league will be ...

March
Just the 3 games in the month covering Match Days 6-8 ...
A league with few draws, there are 4 teams at present looking to challenge for the title ..
The whole bottom half of the table could all be sucked into the relegation battle ...
3rd Skitz - Shaktar
P3 W2 D1 L0 GD +4
Unbeaten in the month and climb to 2nd ..
A 3-3 with relegation threatened Thessaloniki was followed up by 2 x 2-0s ..
2nd Warthog - Valencia
P3 W2 D1 L0 GD +5
An identical record for the league leaders, take 2nd place with an extra GD ...
They also dropped points in a 2-2 with Thessaloniki ....
1st Atalanta - Bruffio
P3 W3 D0 L0 GD +5
100% record for Bruffio - pleased he is restoring my former club to glory!
Congrats on the award!
Getafe, Fiorentina & Galatasaray were those defeated!

April:
Like the Nike, a tough division ..
2 sides are running away at the top, one will face the play off lottery ..
The bottom 3 only have 4 wins from their combined 36 games played - whilst still time to get out they are showing no signs of doing so ...
2nd - Philippe Clement - Monaco
P4 W2 D2 L0 GD +5; Clean Sheets 4
An unbeaten month that sees them move away from the relegation battle, and closer to the play offs ..
3-0 over Porto was the highlight of the month ...
Identical records to PAOK and Valencia but superior GD ..
1st Skitz - Shaktar
P4 W3 D1 L0 GD +6; Clean Sheets 2
It's advantage Shaktar over Valencia as they take over at the top, albeit on GD ...
With Skitz's other team Ajax struggling in the Elite, this will give him some joy!
A 4-0 smashing of his former club Galatasaray he will have particularly enjoyed!
-
May:
Just the 3 games in the month ..
Red Star lost all 3 and sacked manager GlenMac for going missing - let's hope he is back in the game soon!
The top continues to be a race between Shaktar and Valencia, whilst any of the bottom 8 could be relegated out of EFLO..
2nd - Sérgio Conceição - Porto
P3 W2 D1 L0 GD +6; Clean Sheets 2
An unbeaten month sees Porto edge away from the relegation zone to mid table .. and just 5 points off the play offs with 11 games to play ..
Smashed Lyon 4-0 at the start of the month and despatched PAOK 2-0 at the end, sandwiching a 1-1 draw ...
1st - Warthog - Valencia
P3 W3 D0 L0 GD +5; Clean Sheets 2
A 100% record for Warthog in May, creating a 3 pt gap over 2nd placed Shaktar ... one of only 2 sides in EFLO to win all 3 league games in the month!
The key result was beating Shaktar 3-1 in week 13, as well as beating 3rd placed Atalanta the following week 2-0 ... well deserved ..
(The main reason for their success is me selling them Neymar!)
-
June:
4 games in the month, the table now looking settled ... Shaktar & Valencia fighting it out for the title, Atalanta & Galatasaray look safe in play off spots, the final place still up for grabs!
At the bottom no one is dead and buried yet - bottom team Nicosia only 4 pts from 9th!
2nd Warthog - Valencia
P4 W3 D1 L0 GD +13; Clean Sheets 4
Valencia pipped both Galatasaray & Sporting Lisbon to runner up spot - all secured the same points, but Valencia didn't concede a goal, scoring 13 without reply, with the other 2 having GDs of +3 and +4 ..
Despite this great form, they slipped up in wk17 with a 0-0 v Fiorentina .. when Warthog was absent from the dugout ...
1st Skitz - Shaktar
P4 W4 D0 L0 GD +6; Clean Sheets 2
100% record in the month sees Skitz win the award for the 2nd time this season as Shaktar close the gap at the top to one point ..
..maybe havent been as prolific as Valencia but at this stage of the season it's the points that count ..
Can turn it on when needed, as evidenced with a 4-1 over Sociedad .. my tip for the title!
-
July:
Tier 3 divisions are always interesting to review ... teams on their way up, others on their way out ..
2 teams have dominated this division and both deserve to go up ...
The bottom 8 are all technically at risk of relegation but in reality the bottom 4 are all in real danger ...
2nd Deefa - Lyon
P4 W2 D2 L0 GD +2 Clean Sheets 2
A strong month from Deefa sees Lyon pushing on for a play off place .. highlight was a 2-1 win over Porto
... can they keep it going?
1st Warthog - Valencia
P4 W3 D1 L0 GD +3; Clean Sheets 3
Well done Warthog - a 3 pt differential month over your rivals Shaktar ...
3 x 1-0s in the month - possibly not the most exciting team to watch, but the fans are loving the journey!
-
Aug:
2nd - Atalanta - Bruffio
P3 W2 D1 L0
An unbeaten month that sees them secure a play off position ...
Rumour has it that Bruffio will not continue with this project in Season 5 ...
1st - Valencia - Warthog
P3 W3 D0 L0
A 3rd monthly award - 100% record as the title wrapped up with games to spare
