Season 46 (20.10.13/16.11.13)

[Dreamhunter]

FC Dreamhunter humiliated at home

In yesterday's cup-match the Dreamhunters were absolutely chanceless against a team which was a bit stronger. After 70 minutes the visitors lead 0-3. Afterwards we played total offense and were able to get two goals back by AMC Pereira-Marins. So things did not look too bad, but in the very last minute another counter brought us a - deserved - 2-4 loss. So we believe that this round will bring an end to our dreams to regain the cup again. We had absolutely no answer to his tactics - 3W - 0 - 3N - 1 3 and counter. Can anybody of your give me advice how to play against this formation???? PLEASE... An away-win against this team with 3 goals difference seems right now a bit unrealistic, but at least we want to go out of this competition with dignity...

And what's really disturbing - all my players received 7 and 8 ratings....

The other matches brought more or less easy wins and a draw in the CL and so we lead our CL-group by two points and now also the League due to better goal-difference.

Berkshire Utd won all games and is already 3 points ahead in the League, also stays unbeaten in the CL.

Our Japanese-based team FC Sakura continues its unbeaten streak - now 72 games in a row without loss. By the way - what is YOUR team-record for unbeaten games??. The Cup-Match was very tough, but we won 2-1 at home and hope to advance.

The team I spend the most time with right now is the low-budget FC Teresa. We are still looking at the transfer market to find some opportunities to strenghten our squad. This is really very hard as we cannot spend more than 2 Tokens for each player. This of course limits our possibilites, as well as the lack of money. In addition the "machine" seems to hate us - in every game we have at least one injury - and this definitely sucks So right now we are selling every player who is injured more than 4 days and try to replace him with a (possible) better one who has higher quality. This can turn out to be quite nerve-wrecking as we can only bid when nobody else is interested in the player. It took now three days to find a DL - but today we could sign a young Norwegian. So let's hope that he stays healthy. Right now 3 players injured.

So - against all odds (and overcoming an idiotic Top11-"Friend" who is absolutely clueless and gives us more friendship-matches than we want - sometimes 90 minutes before important games) - the team plays really successful. We lead the CL-Group with 3 wins and yesterday evening a 3-0 in the Cup-Away game makes us hope to advance. The interesting fact about this game was that due to one injury I had to start the player with the worst quality ratings (about 10Q less than the second-worst one) - and he scored the first two goals!!!!

The League finds us now on third place, three points behind our sister-team Sakura and the other title-contender, FC Massimo. As our goal is to qualify for next CL (and maybe even stay on third place) we are happy to have already a 4-point lead to the fifth place.
