Serenity FC Hall of Fame

This is the area dedicated to any outstanding players throughout the short history of the club so far.

Alex Swan

Attachment 7492

Bought this outstanding striker at the beginning of Season 2, and he has performed consistently throughout, scoring countless Free Kicks, in no part down to his SA, and generally being a goal machine, as you can see.

Kevin Gomez as of 02/06/2013 is now named Dave Halling

Attachment 7493

Now Gomez was a surprise find for me, i bought him purely because of the need of more squad depth, but after playing him for a couple of games i realised this player was a 1st team must have.

Special thanks to El Pistolero, as he persuaded me to buy this chap when i was presented with a few difficult choices.

Scored an insane amount of goals from his AML position, and he is the reason my 4-5-1V formation proves so deadly.

Also assisted countless goals from his corner SA.

SPECIAL THANKS TO

El Pistolero - My Top 11 buddy, his information and advice has been a massive help.
Simply Simon - This guy gave me some decent advice when i first signed up to this game and the forums.

Final Note: I will try to update this thread as much as possible and also post my progress, but this may be at irregular periods as i primarily play the game on my iPhone due to the amount of commuting and hours i work, and i rarely get to use the browser version.

Thank you for reading all.

You supporting Wigan Athletic?

No I'm a Liverpool fan bud, hence my forum avatar ;)

About time you had a showcase. Cheers for the mention.

I'm in awe of Kevin Gomez, he's your G Bale lol.

TEAM UPDATE

Kevin Gomez, as featured in the Hall of Fame, has changed his name, by deed poll, to Dave Halling, in honour of a certain individual.

TEAM UPDATE

Nordeus Cup, Preliminary, Leg 1

This is the first cup game of the season, and i have been unfortunate enough to have been seeded against a majority of level 6 and 7 Teams.

This game was played against a level 6, his average team quality was slightly lower than mine, and his team consisted of mainly 4 star payers, with a few 7/8 star players dotted around, mainly in the attack region.

I knew this was going to be an extremely tough game due to the constant threat his attack would play, but i managed to play a draw, 1-1, only conceding from a corner.

MoM was 25 year old Ukranian Centre Back, Andriy Kolarov, who kept the ferocious attack of the opponent team in check.

Special mention to, you guessed it, Kevin Gomez (as of now Dave Halling), for the equalising and crucial away goal.

Match pics below.

I've not had a bad start, 1 game 1 goal this season :D

TEAM UPDATE

Nordeus Cup, Preliminary, Leg 2

What an amazing game to watch. An extremelly close, tense game that went right down to the final penalty kick.

The Report

This was the second leg of my first cup game of the season, played at home.

As you can see, it was quite closely matched, despite me having a large possession bonus (15%) due to spectators etc.

I didn't have a single shot on target until the 80th minute.

So, the game began, and things were looking okay, we both had our chances on goal, most notably the opposition had a ST one on one with my keeper, in which he eventually put it over the bar.

The opponent had a 7* AMC, almost 8 star, which i was particularly worried about, as the DMC i had played to counter him was a much lower quality ( 5*, almost 6*)

I had gotten away in the first leg with the player being on bad form, but he managed to score and put me 1-0 down, justifying my fears in the second leg.

I then changed to a 4-2-2-2 formation, extremelly risky as i had taken off my DMC who was countering his in form AMC, but i needed the firepower.

It paid off.

de Oliveira, the high quality MC who was a massive under performer last season, managed to gain some of his reputation back by scoring the equalizer in the 80th minute, a 30 yard pile driver.

MoM was A Sakara, due to his countless runs down the side, feeding crosses into my misfiring ST.

My star striker, Alex Swan, the 40+ goal machine from Season 2, was in particularly bad form, missing many chances during the game, contributing to his 6 rating, and he missed a crucial penalty in the shoot-out, meaning that if the opponent scored his final penalty i was out of the cup.
To my relief, his player put it way over the bar, taking it down to sudden death.

We both scored our first, and it came down to the 7th penalty.

Valencia, my GK from season 1, ever reliant saved it!
in the words of Nordeus, "SAVED!, a big smile on the goalies face, the fans are cheering his name"

It was none other than de Oliveira, who smashed in the final penalty to send me into the next round. Reputation restored.

ON TO THE NEXT ONE.

TEAM UPDATE

Transfer News

Serenity FC have completed the signings of centre backs Alexandros Sparta & Rico Vasquez.

We sorely needed to shore up our defence, even more so with the prospect of facing formidable attacking players in the cup.

Attachment 7853Attachment 7854

These lads will play an important part in the club for the next 2 seasons.

They have performed well so far, their heading SAs playing their part defending against corners and crosses.

Fixture updates will follow in the future, there will be quite a backlog to update as i have been busy with work this past week.

Have you purchased any tokens for your team? :)

Most of my tokens have come from token farming
Ie. surveys, videos etc.
But I have got a hell of a lot from tapjoy on the iPhone.
I have purchased tokens in the past, primarily for the odd red pack when I've had tons of injuries.
I'd say I buy around 50 tokens a season using my own money. :)

How lucky you are. I don't have any Apple products as I play with my Samsung Note 2 which has very minimal surveys/videos etc.
I used to have an iPod touch but I sold it to my friend :(

Moreover, I never ever received any tokens even I had completed the surveys. I gave feedbacks to the support team but to no avail. How sad it was:(

I've lost faith in completing surveys, i just don't bother anymore, nor do i download things to my laptop, they just don't award tokens anymore, all i do now is watch vids and download free apps, but even they seem to be there less and less. Farming is getting real difficult!

My showcase is in a bit of a muddle, as i've got the main stuff on the first post if you look, the league table is there.

I usually post the odd progress feature in any post thats not the main page edit.

I wont hold my breath, i'm a scout buyer haha.

Cheers bud, staying up until 2:30 am to go on a scout spree, got 280T saved ;)

(Only bought 160 of those, the rest are farmed from tapjoy)

Trophies updated, Squad updated.

CUP UPDATE

Great start to the cup campaign, with a 4-0 victory away to a level 6 team.

2 goals from star striker Alex Swan, 2 Assists from new scout signing Jesus Garza, putting his Corner SA to good use, and a debut goal from Craig Beast, another scout purchase.
Also a surprise goal from Rui Cruz, the DR.

Slight drawback with an injury to Mitch Rodriguez, my ultra fast trainer.

MoM was new scout GK Rhys Lancer, stopping 3 one on one challenges.

Attachment 8917

Hey, thanks for the mention! Let me know if you want to friend on the game, a friendly might be a laugh as I'm a level up but you've got a bunch of scouts who'd easily make my team :-)

Sure, ill pm you my facebook link. :)

If you're online and up for a game tonight, let me know :-)

CUP UPDATE.

Annihilated the opponent at home in the second leg. 6-1.

The game kicked off with a 1st minute goal coming from a free kick, none other than Alex Swan with the accolade.

2-0 up after 7 minutes with a 30 yard piledriver from veteran AML Dave Halling.

Alex Swan added two more to his tally making it a hat-trick before half time, but not before new scout signing Craig Beast scored his second goal for Serenity FC, and assisted Swan in his third, preluding great things to come from the new signing.

Jesus Garza, our new scout winger notched another goal for himself, also adding an assist for Alex Swan, making that 2 goals and 3 assists in just 2 games.

Consolation goal came from Yoshimoto for Kickers IceNWolf.

10-1 Aggregate to Serenity FC.

Attachment 8975

LEAGUE UPDATE.

Serenity FC make it a 3 game winning run to start season 4 off, also boasting a 24-0 Goal difference.

The match today was played against Volkova FC.

2 Goals from Alex Swan, an assist by Craig Beast, a goal from Alessio Sakara & a further goal and assist from Jesus Garza.

Quite worried about the stats though, 77-23 possession to me, yet the opponent matched me for shots on target.

Attachment 9123

Champs League Update

Serenity FC are top of our CL group, with 2 wins and a Goal difference of 15-0

The match today was played against Sc Legenfeld, and was a complete annihilation.

11-0 to us.

5 goals from Alex Swan, 4 from Craig Beast, and a goal each for Mitch Rodriguez, a minute after he came on as a sub, and Danny Storm.

Attachment 9124

LEAGUE UPDATE

Back to the top of the table with a 7-0 demolition of MDM FC.

Attachment 9259

Again, the game engine likes to troll me with silly match ratings for my MCs and GK, despite me dominating.

Attachment 9260

Goals :

Attachment 9261

Now the League table looks as such

Attachment 9262

Note the stupid 2-2 draw to a team much worse than the team i just beat 7-0.

CHAMPS LEAGUE UPDATE

Still top of our group after a 6-0 slapping of Fenerbace

Attachment 9263

Note the weird stats for shots, he nearly matched me.

Again, i get trolled with stupid match ratings. It seems your GK cannot get a good rating unless he has to make a save, clean sheets don't count.

Attachment 9264

Goals:

(A solo effort from J Garza was cut off the top, he scored in the 20th minute.)

Attachment 9265

Now the Groups look like this, still haven't conceded in my group.

Attachment 9266

Cheers bro, you should make a showcase yourself! Always good to be able to return complements.

Due to my busy schedule, and me not being able to use the browser form of the game much, i'll be posting updates post and pre season from now on, instead of piecemeal match reports every blue moon.

Been relying on my iPhone more and more recently.
