1. Why Royale Union Saint-Gilloise FC is a Good Choice

Royale Union Saint-Gilloise FC, founded in 1897, boasts a rich footballing tradition and is one of the oldest clubs in Belgium. The club has a strong legacy of success, having won 11 Belgian First Division titles, making it a fantastic choice for any manager looking to leave their mark on a historic institution.

2. Stadium & Training Facility Information

Upon taking the reins at Royale Union Saint-Gilloise FC, I was pleased to find that the club boasts a top-quality stadium and training facilities.

3. Staff Members & Financial Security

While our staff roster is full, there's no denying that we need to improve the overall quality of our coaching and backroom staff. However, I've delegated training responsibilities to my capable Assistant Manager, allowing me to focus on other aspects of the game. Additionally, the club's finances are very secure, providing us with a solid foundation for future growth.

4. Squad Changes

To improve the squad, we made a number of strategic signings and departures. We brought in talented players who complemented our existing roster while parting ways with those who did not fit into our long-term vision. These changes were crucial in shaping a squad capable of achieving great things.

5. Tactic Used

Inspired by FC Barcelona's iconic 2010/2011 season, we replicated their renowned 4-1-2-3 tactic, with three pressing forwards leading the line. This high-pressing, possession-based style of play perfectly suited our squad and allowed us to dominate matches with flair and finesse.

6. The Results

Our hard work and dedication paid off handsomely. We clinched the Jupiler Belgian Pro League title, showcasing our dominance in the domestic competition. In the Europa League, we reached the Round of 16, demonstrating our ability to compete at the highest level. Additionally, our run to the Eighth Round of the Croky Cup highlighted our consistency across all competitions.
