Season 52 (06.04.14/03.05.14)

Main Squad Training Completed

We completed our Power Training in 2 and a half days, Most of the squad players that dropped to 7* were immediately sent through around 35 friendly matches as well as all 3 types of training, Watson is left at 7* and is getting old now at 28, Petersen and Papaleo both dropped from 9* back to 8* and have been given a mini boost to 8*177.

http://i57.tinypic.com/e64z9e.png

Only 1 player in our squad has been trained back to 9* and that is Benayoun and he spends his 7th season at 9* Legend status.

Nobody has been bought and sold as of yet, TM is rubbish and Mr.Scout is full of OAP's.... We do recieve our youth player this evening, but we are not expecting any fireworks and probably get a 12T player or a position we don't really need to strengthen.

Our squad is getting older now and everyone is heading to age 26+ in the main squad and it's not sustainable to keep training our current squad. We are not desperate for young players yet, But in 2-3 seasons time we could have a problem on our hands.

July Fourth League And CL Draw S30/L29

This season sees the return of the league of death... Or in the 2 previous seasons a straight fight between us and El Capo for the league title, We are strongest this season and El Capo still has made no improvement to his team this season, Other teams like LaFruta and OTTOMANS are rank outsiders and could challenge if some strange results occur. 2 of the greek giants OFI and INCORRUPT are present alongside the 2 teams we faced in last seasons finals Fontanellese and Bjk 1903.

http://i62.tinypic.com/2cxf4oj.png

In the Champions League it seems that the draw has been kind to all the seeded teams placing us all in various sections of the group draws, We cannot play El Capo or LaFruta to at least the semi-finals, But we could end up facing PIPPO FC, Jon Utd and/or OTTOMANS en route to the semi-final before hand and our difficulty of the route to the final will all depend on how each team finishes in the groups.

http://i59.tinypic.com/ztujwn.png

In the 2nd Round of the Cup we play against Hueso FC (who are in El Capo's CL group.) We should be expected to qualify for the next round without too many problems.

My goal is to win this league this season. See what I am talking about:)Attachment 22022

A LEGEND GETS SOLD

Hey Boys and Girls,

today I thought, I return to the forums because I have a big, yet sad announcement. With the purchase of the new south-korean striker Han (83, 22) we now have 4 strikers in the team, what means the weakest of them gets sold.

This is the legend Benson Shilongo! Now aged 27, the namibian striker came into the team as my first and only scout player 5 seasons ago, rated 64 with 6* and the corner specialist skill, 22 years old. Until now he has played 190 games, scored a ton of goals and got loads of assists. I remember him scoring a hattrick in the CL quarter final 3 seasons ago, which meant that the game ended 3-3 (after the first leg ended 3-3 as well) and it got to extra time, this was absolutely amazing.

Attachment 22028

I hope he will do well at his next team! He was the best player I have ever had, but I didn't want him to sit on the bench and never get used as a player, who is not rated good enough, he deserves to play!

Did you ever had a legend, who was about 5 seasons in your team (without power training) and did so well? I'm very interested in this.

Yes! We also had a player that did well like Benson Shilongo, But this goes back to the "Classic" days of our club where power training wasn't conducted and my club was just a token farming team, I bought a striker named Alexandre Maccarone with 1v1 ability, He scored 46 goals in his season and followed it up with 40 and 30 the next 2 seasons and went onto score approx. 150 goals in 200 games, Never kept any close eyes on stats those days but he was the one that lit our team up between Level 6-10, Of course losing stars quickly and advancing age soon got the better of Maccarone, In Levels 10-12 we never found that frequent goalscorer like Maccarone and even the strikers we did buy from Mr.Scout in those seasons never really produced anything good.

But your right, It's stories like these players that are always interesting because they are some outstanding power trained footballers here on forum, You can probably name a few yourself like Petersen, Papaleo, Benayoun, Miku, Bobo, Valletta, etc... But we tend to forget or overlook the ones that have very little or never received any power training.

Most probably we are out of the CUP with a 2-0 defeat to weaker team...
He got a 2-0 lead in 23 minutes, I still had confidence that my team can make a come back but in the 42 minutes his AMC get injured and a substitution does not happens...So I was sure that I am going to loose the match now...

3rd time this season that we win a level 15 team in Cup, now for 2-1 and without assist, but the other guy came to the match.

Thought I was going to have one of those yesterday but it all panned out in the second half, I got my troll in the prelims of the cup.

The Cup should be known as 'Trol Compilation' or something.

I don't give a f on this thing, I dont know what it's about, but everytime bad teams seem to win the cup.

He's been on this 35T team since the beginning (Quality 23 or 24, 20 years old).
Now, at 7th season, I have to sell him because I don't think he'll play well this season.

Oh... You could of at least let him get his 200th goal for the club... Seems like a crime to sell him on 199.

He gets only 1 goal in 4 matches.. Not as he used to..

2nd league match and Overmars and Nøstbakken scored. So, we still in 1st position.
In the morning we won the Cup match, so I will try to train to have 2 different midfields, Zé Roberto and Makaay are the Key if we wanna win our 1st Treble, and be in the group of Historic teams that won it.

I hope that at the third attempt we will win it LOL... 1st time won League + Cup... Lost CL final... 2nd time won League + CL, lost in penalties the cup

:'D

League Round 2

Bjk 1903 0-6 July Fourth

Kusama (2) Benayoun (12) Petersen (19,56) Papaleo (40) Hardy (88) MOTM: Petersen.

July Fourth were outstanding this morning against Bjk, They continued where they left off in their previous recent meetings, Petersen was the main highlight here scoring a brace and Providing Kusama with an assist. Benayoun, Papaleo and Hardy all scored.

Cup, 2nd Round, 1st Leg

July Fourth 10-0 Hueso FC

Harrison (1) Petersen (45) Kusama (54) Papaleo (70,71,77,83) Benayoun (79,89) Regal (86) MOTM: Papaleo.

Our opponents were pretty much new comers to the shark pool as I've not seen them before, However after a slow start despite Harrison scoring in the first minute and Petersen scoring before HT, We soon killed off the tie in a rather one sided 2nd half, Kusama made it 3-0 before Papaleo a hatrick to make it 6-0, Then Benayoun scored a free-kick, Papaleo added another before Regal made it 9-0 and Benayoun scored again to get us to double figures.

That MOTM for Papaleo means one thing... Stacey Papaleo III now holds the club record of 87 MOTM.

SBARATA FC

LEAGUE ROUND 1
Away against abandoned team, not a good performance, with a lot of missed chances, but still a 0:3 win
Goals by Bradaschia, Guzman and Mohammady that got MOM

LEAGUE ROUND 2
Good Q team but playing ilegal formation, at home, played with some subs and had a good surprise. 6:0 win
Goals by Klimov, Mohammady, Bradaschia and Ketnuam 3 getting the MOM, only 9 LEAGUE games in 3 seasons, but 8 goals scored, maybe it is time to give more time of playing.

CL ROUND 1
Home defeat by 1:2 dificult to explain
Goal by Klimov

CUP 1st leg
unbelivable away defeat by 4:1
Goal by Arak

The results in CUP have been completely unreal.

You need to post a screen shot of your team for us to look at?

Noreus Corp had mixed results today!
Attachment 22071Attachment 22071

And for the second league match in a row!
Attachment 22072

I lost 5-0 first round this Cup tie, I expect I'm out.

Easy League: Attachment 22082

Champs League: Attachment 22081 Bobo and Musial score, and The Man gets a 6. Yeah.

Tough League match that I failed to be awake for, my opp was there though, poor guy got trolled:

Attachment 22080 Attachment 22079 Attachment 22078 Attachment 22077

Won 1-0 in Leg and 4-2 in CL but those are hard win. Still find way for team to work well

Drew again in League today, 2-2. We scored 2 late in 82nd and 88th minute so I feel sad for my opponent. First Crofts scored assisted by Papaleo then Papaleo scored assisted by Crofts...

I think I will start tanking again for 2nd season in a row as I am being trolled again. I have already stopped assigning the SPs but I will still field my strongest team and see....

SBARATA FC

LEAGUE ROUND 3
Playing away against one of my main opponents in LEAGUE, we have very similar quality.
We entered bad and in no time we were down by 2:0, but i was confidente and in 2H Guzmán scored from a free kick, and after a few subs and tactical changes Bradaschia equalized, but Roudaut got injured and they scored the third, we didnt give up and from a corner in last minute Bradaschia equalized again.

Final result 3:3 MOM was our DC Maillot, Bradaschia scored 2 important goals and got a 7???? But he is our top scorer.

CL today, I think my team should have done better and I will try a different formation next time I see them, but a player who had been slumping got MOtM so I am pleased with that...

FCBayern München Diary

Champions League resume:
Ambient sound to read better: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcwjDwj8GyM
http://i60.tinypic.com/288zgqg.jpg
To see better use the zoom (ctrl + (+) )

Second match of the champions league and second victory against a easy team, of 66.2 of Quality VS us, 82.1.
Klose scored for us in the minute 35', of penalty, and Zumalakarregui scored in the minute 40', of foul.
So the first half end with 2 goals for us, from the 2 fouls against us, and bulldog fc recived... 2 yellows for these fouls.

Second half started with 3 changes from bulldog fc, but the only different thing was that the colour yellow went to us, with the yellow card for Nøstbakken in the 53'.
At the end, Overmars scored in the 79', and our defenders did the work, that's why our defender Petrov was the man of the match and won the 6*, thank's to the +142 of proggress that won from this match.

FCBayern München is first of the group, with 6 points, like the 2nd, Dung FC, our next rival.
