CL Update:
Ninjaa FC won 3:0 at home in the 1st leg. In the 9th minute, Kalaei passed to Trotti for a goal. Kalaei scored in the 57th minute. Trotti scored again in the 88th minute to close out the match, meaning that once again, the defenders outscore the offensive players. Unfortunately, Trotti also picked up a yellow card, so he is out next match due to 2 accumulated yellows. Klock walked away with MOTM honors somehow, despite no goals or assists.
With the poor performances by STs recently, and the good performances and depth at midfield, the manager decided to test out a slightly different formation. The team usually comes out in a 3n-5-2 V, unless a more defensive presence is needed. The manager took one ST out, and added an extra MC, to make the formation a 3n-1-3n-2w-1.
The new formation wasn't the best idea for countering the opponent's 3n-4-3, but it still worked well enough. The MCs all saw about a 2 point dip in their ratings in the match, but this may be due to adjusting to the new formation. Depending on the results of the next few matches, the manage may keep the new formation, or revert to 3-5-2 V.
