A mean defence had seen Union Berlin only concede seven goals and keep 13 clean sheets in the first half of their second Bundesliga title defence. And they again enjoyed a decent gap over Bayern München, who spend nearly four times more on wages than their smaller rival.
Having become the most successful Football Manager of all time in surpassing Sir Alex Ferguson's haul of 38 trophies, the only remaining objective on our list was his 13 Premier League successes.
An inspired summer signing and a superstar striker had fired Union Berlin back to the top of Bundesliga as they began their first-ever title defence in style. Manager Ruprecht Prusseit's biggest challenge now was to keep hold of his in-demand players.
Ruprecht Prusseit completed his 16-year journey from a Sunday League nobody to a German title winner as he led Union Berlin to become the first-ever OstDeutscher Bundesliga winners.
Ruprecht Prusseit needed a little time away from football after seeing his Union Berlin miss out to perennial Bundesliga champions Bayern München on the final day for a second season in a row. But he came back to work refreshed and eager to take Bayern down.
Union Berlin enjoyed the best season in club history in 2035/36 as they finished in a record high of 2nd in Bundesliga and won their first major trophy as Ruprecht Prusseit led them to the Europa Conference League. Now they had to step up to the challenges of competing in the Champions League for the first time.
After 16 seasons at Nottingham Forest, we'd racked up an impressive haul of 33 trophies, leaving us just five short of the tally amassed by Sir Alex Ferguson at Man UFC.
Victory over Bayern München in the Champions League Final saw Nottingham Forest wrap up a league, cup and European treble in our 13th season at the club. That moved us onto 22 trophies in charge at Forest, moving us 16 behind Sir Alex Ferguson's tally at Man UFC.
Back-to-back Premier League titles and six in the last seven seasons and seen us well and truly establish Nottingham Forest as the dominant force in English football. But this season's big challenge was to complete the cup, league and European treble that Sir Alex Ferguson managed in his 13th season at Man UFC in our 13th season at Forest.
These were exciting times at Forest as the board's long-planned vision of a new stadium came to reality. The 61,155-capacity Brian Clough Arena, which has an expansion capacity of 73,703, was officially completed on 26 June 2033 and puts us in a really strong position alongside perfect facilities and a bank balance over £500m for the first time.
