Season 37

[Mar Wie]

I was a bit busy in Reallife so here are the current standings:

League:

Have to play tonight but doesn't make a change on table:



Group Results in CL, we made it clear with 6 wins, 18pts as in season before:



So KnockOut round was setup:



First Match away against LG No.1 ended with a 1:3 (1:1) win.
Goals: Muir (19'), Grech (44', 62'), Aydemir (88')
Cards: Grech (yellow, 1st in CL)
MOM: Reichwein (3rd time in CL, 5th time in total)

So we're still on the road for our goals this season. As expected we're out of Cup (Level 12) in Round 3, so we can focus on League and CL.

actually it is my fifth season in top eleven...is is it 6....I forgot...but anyway...my team is a good team but still because i forgot to put two friendly pre season matches, something necessary to have a good going season, my team wins one and loses the other atm.

[July Fourth]

Champions League 9.26pm tonight and I'm considering playing 3N-1-4-2 with Zidane playing as a striker alongside Papaleo, with Rocastle back in the starting XI as MR, all due to Holvoet being injured and the unpredictabilty of my next opponent.

--------------Papaleo(cpt)------Zidane-------------
----------------------------------------------------
L.McNamara--P.McNamara-------Mensah-----Rocastle
-----------------------Vasko------------------------
---------R.McNamara--Novotny--Adams--------------
----------------------Murphy (GK)-------------------

Champions League Preview: July Fourth (98.7) vs Steaua Siret (91.7) Last 16, 1st Leg.

July Fourth head into a tough encounter vs an active side at home, It's an unusual situation for us because we normally are group winners but this season we were beaten at Islington Park by a team of a similar quality we are facing tonight, The July Fourth manager in the press interview came out and stated he wants to see more from 1st choice striker Stacey Papaleo who is only knocking the odd goal in now and again rather than putting some teams to bed easily, However the man for games like these is Alex Zidane and when it can be classed as a difficult game and important he is often the player that can step up to the mark, Kevin Mensah is our in form man and has got us out of a couple of difficult situations in league games this season to ensure we are 13-0-0 in the league this season.

The away side won their group with a convincing 4-0 over NONKRAVAN FC with a record of 4-0-2 and have won their last 5 competitive games they have played and are currently also in 1st place in their L15 league with a record of 10-1-2 with a lead of 3 points, so it shows that they are not invincible by any means but they may prove to be a tough nut to crack as they will aim to try and keep the tie close in the 1st leg and perhaps may look to get an away goal. Ki-Oh Noh is there important hitman in the champions league scoring 4 in the group stage and Welsh man Tyrone Connor also likes to get on the scoresheet from right-midfield. Andres Ayala corners could also be dangerous for our team as he is a corner specialist and the only player in Steaua Siret's squad to hold a Special Ability.

Champions League match in 2 minutes: Preview;

Catepi FC 42 vs Magic Beans 51.4

After todays purchase and 1 sell, team looks stronger a bit, although they had small training after last night. Victory is expected although draw may be good since next game is just around the corner, 30 min later.

Game is finished, 1 step until 1/4 finals in CL, interesting game and nice victory. No time to rest as new game starts in less than 20 minutes time. Here a sneak peak

Sunday Review.

LGE: TWINS FC 0-6 LONDON CITY
Back to form after the disappointing CL game earlier. Despite a dull first 30 minutes, we suddenly sprang to life, with three quick goals (Teddy King 31' & 41', Willem Gentile 43'). Goals flowed again after the break from Seamus Flanagan (66), Gentile (70) and Rudolph Mueller (89). The man of the match award went to Mueller.

CL: PS NUSAKAMBANGAN 2-0 LONDON CITY
We were optomistic before the game that we could get a first leg lead against our lesser quality team. Apart from 2 corners in the first 6 minutes, we hardly threatened after that. One goal in each half, settled it for our opponents.

It was a relief to get a comfortable win over the team ranked 13th in our league. It keeps our lead at the top to 4 points. Manager Billy Wheeler accepted most of the blame for our CL defeat, by underestimating the opposition, and fielding a weakened team. 0-2 is not the end of the world, but we have a big problem for the 2nd leg at the Olympic Stadium.

2-1 away win in the CL. The match started misserable, 1-0 down after 8' and the opponent continued to have possesion. After half an hour I switched the tactics, scored the equalizer right before half-time (40.) and the winning goal in 67'. The other manager was also online, but made no changes during the match.

[Pojacanje]

First defeat in season 3:1...as guest suffer heavy defeat and now 1st spot looks further than ever. Although second is rock solid, hopes are on for 1st place at the end of the season...problems will rise tomorrow and 2 days after since two game per day, both in 2HR period is very difficult to play.
This is not excuse, I blame my players for not being well prepared, and me ofcourse. Since I own teams, some power training or what_ green tokens should come into play??
