As of a few minutes ago, Season 16 is in the books.

There is no silverware this season, as we got knocked out in the Semi-Finals of the CL and would up having a difficult fight in the League. We came in rated 7th best overall, and struggled our way to a 4th place finish. We could have finished 3rd, but "Soccer" happened against the 12th place team today.

We saw Carl Frost, Julian Green, Vincent Nogueira and (to a slightly lesser extent) Aron Johannsson took steps forward. Tim Howard and Fabian Johnson had very strong seasons. However, our Player of the Year was probably Amobi Okugo, who was consistently very very good all season, both at center back and holding mid.

We did see a couple of steps back with Jozy Altidore and Chad Woods. Altidore started off alright, but wound up only scoring 1/3 of the goals from last season, a combination of missed chances and the emergence of Johannsson and the addition of Daniel Bilali from the Scout list, who got hot and took over the Striker position. Woods got the majority of starts at left back, but was uneven and was losing starts to DaMarcus Beasley by the end of the season.

You're going to notice fewer 6* players in the preferred lineup, that's not an indication of declining play so much as my choice to hold off on assigning skill points over the last seven days to prepare for the start of the new season. I'm currently sitting on 254 of them right now.

We have 10 impending free agents heading into tomorrow, and I'm planning on re-signing all of them. As with seasons past, the goal for season 17 is a Triple!

As with last season, here are the end-of-season screen grabs.

First, the Team Details:


And here is our final season stats and formation. Another year with the 4-3-3:
