    The Chimera - English Team

    Hello, Ladies and Gentlemen, and welcome to my Thread on my Team in Top Eleven - The Chimera! However, before I dive in and show you the ins and outs of my team, I'd like to mention a little something about myself (I apologise if this isn't proper etiquette, but what's a team without a Manager, hmm?). I am a 20 year old guy who is from England, but lives in New Zealand (I put England as my home, as that's where I consider my true home to be).

    Anyway, enough about me. You're not here to learn about me, but to learn about The Chimera! I would like to point out that I've always been a fan of Germany, which would explain why I have German shirts for my team and I have more German players on my team than any other country (Italian players also being the most too). So, here is the current look at my team as of today!

    Yes, all of my Players are named after real Footballers (Most of them are indeed German/Italian (except 3, I thought they had cool names and didn't want to change them, except for Alighieri, that one is for me)). I have a penchant for having real Players on my team. Makes me feel like I'm managing a team of Football Masters & Legends.

    As you can see, we've been having a spectacular Season so far! We are currently top of our League and top of our Group in the Champions League.

    Here are the current standings for League Six;

    Here are the current standings for Group F of the Champions League;

    Now then, as you can see from my Team Overview, I do have a slight blemish on my otherwise perfect record for this Season. Yes, that one match I lost has haunted me for some time now. I've even lost sleep over it! (Well, not really, but yeah... Haha!)

    Unfortunately, The Chimera had their hopes of a Cup Run dashed this Season in the Second Round and it was very heart breaking. Allow me to set the scene; We put on a shameful display at Home in the 1st Leg, losing 1-3 to a Team that was clearly better on the night. However, we were not about to go down without a war. Yes, a war. I was prepared to launch Full-Scale War to make sure we would win. That's almost exactly what happened... ALMOST. We went right at them and were definitely the more dominant team of the night. We were 3-0 up and it seemed like we had done the impossible - Claw our way back up to the top and win... But it wasn't meant to be. In the 90th minute, our hopes of going through were set back, as our opposition were able to score off a last second Corner. I had hoped we still had enough left to play through Extra Time and either score a winner, or try our luck at Penalties. But I was wrong again. In the 114th minute, the opposition broke through our back line and scored. I had hoped to pull another one back, but it just wasn't on the cards. We won 3-2, but it was a bittersweet victory, as that ET Goal had resulted in a 4-5 aggregate score and sent our opposition through to the 3rd Round and The Chimera crashing out of the Cup. Here are the Results & Highlights of both games.

    Now, I'm sure all of you have that one player on your team who really is the driving force behind your team's successes. He scores the most, assists most often and almost always gets MoM, your 'Star Player', if you will. Well, my team is no different. The 'Star Player; for The Chimera is none other than my Striker, Miroslav Klose. Here is a look at his Stats in Info (He might be a NordGen Player, but I'm not sure, would someone like to tell me if he is?)

    The Chimera - English Team-miroslav-klose-stats-info.jpg

    His stats show he's on Top Form almost every game and the League reflects this. He is the Top Scorer, Top Passer and is currently 3rd in Top Rated.

    Top Passer;

    Top Rated;

    He is also REALLY close (I'll spare you the pun, I'm sure it's been done) to learning Free Kick Specialist. Though he doesn't really need it, as he converts Free Kicks into Goals about 90% of the time, whether it be a goal from him, or an Assist from him and someone else scores. I picked up Klose last Season and he has been fantastic ever since. Along with the rest of The Chimera, we were able to lift the League Trophy for the very first time! (It was the Unique World Cup Version too, so that was awesome!) We nabbed 3rd Place in the Cup for a second time (Still haven't won it) but failed to get past the Quarter-Finals of our first ever Champions League Campaign.

    Here is last Season's Trophy Overview;

    However, it hasn't been a very easy start for me or my team. We had a very poor start and we grabbed out first League Trophy in Season Four.

    Here's an Overview of The Chimera's Trophy Cabinet;

    Well, I suppose I should show you my Stadium and all of my Extras too. Come, take a look! Don't be shy!

    Anyway, I think that's about it from me. I'll update this Thread regularly with how my Team progresses throughout each Season. I hope you've enjoyed learning about my Team and getting the inside scoop on how they operate here on Top Eleven.

    Until next time, good luck in your campaigns, everybody!

    Thanks! I'm hoping I start getting like a lot of other people on here; Winning all 3 Trophies each Season and having top quality players that everyone are impressed by.

    I just wanted to share with you another Rising Star within The Chimera. I decided to purchase a Scout Player for the very first time the other day (Best. Decision. EVER!!), and after last night's League Match, where we crushed the opposition 8-0, I thought I'd show him to you. Introducing the Free Kick Specialist; David Beckham!! In last night's League Match, he scored 4 brilliant goals and in my Champions League Match this morning, he was able to score with a magnificent header to help up stay undefeated (In the Champions League) and draw 1-1. To be fair, we played horribly and we were lucky to Draw.

    Anyway, here are his Stats and the Score Sheet from last night's League Match;
    The Chimera - English Team-david-beckham-stats-info.jpg

    Beckham is also my Highest Rated Player at 55, with Mesut Özil in second at 54.

    The Hidden Goal at the bottom there was scored by Miroslav Klose off Mesut Özil's Corner.

    I'll keep updating regularly!

    ♥ Miro Klose... Keep throwing extra training at him.. you will want to keep him for awhile! since 50 cones went to an SA, he is "behind" so any extra greens you can spare to notch his Q up will pay off in being able to hang onto him longer.

    Huh... I didn't know that. I'll have to start doing that. I have some Spare Tokens and he's only 21. Plus, I suspect he is a NordGen Player. Thanks for the advice, Cat!

    UPDATE: After Purchasing a 25 Pack of Rests, I've done some Power Training for Klose and he's gained 17 Skill Points already and I've only used 16-20 of my Rests. Since he already had 53 Attack, would it be best to pump up his Physical & Mental? That's only at 46, while Defence is at 45. I'm open to suggestions. I'm hoping he'll reach Lvl 50 after my League Match tonight!

    Hello all.

    Just a quick Update on my team, as I'm getting ready to go into my 1st Leg QF Champions League match that's scheduled to take place in 1 hour. I thought you might like to see how everything is going. I shall hope to not disappoint. Currently the only undefeated team in the League and still going strong as a whole. My Star Player is still on fire - despite the fact he missed a penalty last night. Here's some images for you all to look at!

    Hello again, everyone! I hope you are all keeping well. I'd just like to give you a quick update on The Chimera's Champions League Campaign. We are in the Semi-Finals and whipped our Opponent 0-3! That gives us a HUGE advantage going into the Second Leg. I was freaking out so badly, as I've never gotten this far before and I was afraid I'd lose. But my worries amounted to nothing and we ended up winning without an issue!

    The Highlights of our First Leg Semi-Final Match;
    The Chimera - English Team-champions-league-semi-final-first-leg-results.jpg

    Still Undefeated in the League, but we drew with one of our opponents, with a lucky goal in the closing minutes to bring the game to a draw and keep the streak alive even longer!

    I'll update this page after my Second Leg Semi-Final Game in a few days, until then, best of luck in your campaigns!
