Mr_Raiden

For ten years, Ethan Carter was cursed.

No matter which club he coached, he never won a single match. The world called him “The Cursed Coach.” Fans ridiculed him. Players disrespected him. The media destroyed him.

But on one fateful night, his Bundesliga team—the weakest in the league—was leading 1-0 against a footballing giant.

Ninety minutes. One last chance. The biggest upset of the season.

The final whistle blew.

Victory.

His first-ever win. The curse was broken.

And then… his heart stopped.

When he opened his eyes, he wasn’t in Germany anymore.

He was in a run-down office with peeling wallpaper and a broken desk. His hands were thinner. His face was different.

A small nameplate sat in front of him:

 Jake Wilson – Head Coach, Bradford FC (Fifth-Tier League) 

Before he could even process what had happened, a glowing screen appeared before his eyes.

[Ding! The Coaching System Has Activated!]

Now, armed with a system that grants real-time tactical analysis, scouting reports, player growth insights, and legendary tactics, Ethan—now Jake—has a second chance.

From a forgotten, unknown club to the top of world football—can he use the system to become the greatest coach in history?

He was once the most mocked coach in the world.

Now, he will become unstoppable.

Because this time… he refuses to lose.

The Coaching System

The day after Bradford's stunning victory over MK Dons, the city was still buzzing with excitement. One more match stood between them and League One.

Jake Wilson, however, had already moved on.

There was no time to celebrate. Notts County awaited.

Inside his office, Jake sat alone, staring at the tactical breakdown the system had provided.

Notts County had finished 6th in League Two, just missing out on automatic promotion. They were a team built for tight, cagey matches, thriving under pressure.

The system's latest update confirmed what Jake already suspected:

Notts County's defensive structure was one of the best in the league.

Their midfield controlled games, slowing down the tempo and frustrating opponents.

They had the most goals from set-pieces in the league.

A difficult opponent—but not unbeatable.
