Season 59

[pcmacdaniel]

Level 5:

League: Currently sitting in 3rd with a 3-1-0 record. With the top two teams sitting on a perfect 15 points from 5 matches, we'll end the day at 3rd no matter what.

Champions: Picked up a 4-1 away win against a team which has two first place CL trophies and a 3rd place showing in three attempts. This moves us to a perfect 9 points from 3 matches. Today, we used a 4-4-2 classic against a 4(Dl-dc-dc-dc)-3n-3. Jumped up 1-0 before switching around the 30th minute to a 4-1-4-1. We're now 6 points clear of 2nd, setting up nicely for the round of 16.

Cup: Advanced to the playoffs off a 7-0 agg. win! Next opponent's formation has me a bit worried though (3n-1(dml)-3n-3)!!! Tough matchups in the cup is the norm though! I just don't like playing against formations which the recommended counter is either a 4-1-4-1 or 4-5-1V, since those have gotten me into trouble seasons past.

FK Partizan - Day 7 - Champignons League

Goalless draw game... as boring as watching Liverpool vs. Hull City today...

[Buffs Mad]

Catch-Up

Yesterday was an important day, psychologically, for the Buffs. CL match gave the side the opportunity to put the opening rond defeat to rest and go top v a 4-1-3N-2. It also gave an opportuntity to refine the system ahead of the top of the league clash against the same formation.

Champions league: The Buffs stepped out in a 4-3N-2W-1 to face the Group leager's 4-1-3N-2. Two goals from the Lawman and a hat-trick from newly signed right winger Willie Johnston secured the 5-0 win. The Buffs now top the Group on goal difference.

League: The Buffs faced a stern test against the (same Q) league leader but persisted in 4-3N-2W-1, albeit electing to start defensively and trying to hit them on the break.

Two goals in the first half hour put the Buffs ahead. Nerves tightened slightly when the Buffs were caught at a corner shortly after the restart but withing 6 mins CK specialist Archie Gemmill scored in off Paul Lamberts head. 15 mins later the opposition struck again as their Super-sub tore the Buffs rearguard apart. But within a minute Right Winger Willie Johnston repaid his transfer fee in full with a crucial solo effort. 4-2 the final result.



The Buffs go top on goal difference - but for how long?

With 3 new transfer captures and a heavy training schedule the Buffs have now closed the Quality Gap and are just ranked second to the full 6* Quality leader, who lies 6th. O.o

[Buffs Mad]

Nice one PW, the recovery began today, keep it up You can do it.

*The mind games continue*

Cup: Buffs FC defend and counterattack in a clinical show of finishing for a 4-0 away win.

8 shots on target and 4 goals prompted Buffs Mad to say "That's 4 missed opportunities."

FK Partizan - Day 8 - Cup

Played 2 Cup games in 2 browsers (1 minute difference) and won both...

Narrow win, but without a goal for away team... Two wingers flank to flank pass for winning goal...




Belgrade United - Day 8 - Cup

High tempo game and midfield domination of new MC Horgan (two long-range missiles grass-net type and an assist for rating 9)




They injured my only DMC Krause, but he is in bad form, so I wont cure him... Hopefully he will play better after that injury...
