Season 66 - Week 4

[Blackkiwi]

Just wrapped up the home league for the CL. After winning 5-2 away in the first match, I decided to give a few of the reserves a run and experiment using 4-1-2-1-2 Narrow diamond against his 4-3-3. He was watching as well. It didn't start too well, with them having numerous shots on goal, and after 20 mins he'd had 10 shots on goal, 4 on target, with me just having the lone shot. My Goalkeeper single handedly kept me in the match. After that I changed to a 4-5V formation, and boom things changed. Apart from my star MC getting injured (grrrr), we demolished him in the second half 4-0. Surprisingly he didn't try any counter formations, I guess he was resigned to defeat.
Bit confused about my Goalkeeper getting a 5 rating, and my striker getting a 6 (First time ever). Oh well. Onwards to the Quarterfinals we march!

[Buffs Mad]

League: Buffs FC take to league action without main striker Harper. Stephen Naismith deputises and scores 2 1st half goals both assisted by Right Winger Ryan Gauld. The opposition responded in 61 minutes to fray the nerves. Since the players were tiring (and because BuffsMad couldn't resist a fiddle) Ikechi Anya replaced Jim Baxter on the left and Jack "I thought I was supposed to be resting" Harper came on for Naismith on 71 mins. Harper fired in the 3rd 2 mins later and Gauld was supplier again for the 4th when faltering MC Liam Henderson half-volleyed home a CK to complete the 4-1 against another side the Buffs had drawn with previously.

2 goal Naismith seemed a bit put out that his brace was not enough for the bubbly - he's gotta learn that sometimes that grabbing the headlines is not always enough. 3x assist guy Naismith let the bubbles tickle his nose as he warbled in the bath and thought "Naismith? Naichance!" *groan*

[Ayman]

CL : We're through to the quarter finals as we beat Porto FC 4-0 (7-4 agg.). The match started pretty much like the 1st leg, we were on the attacking side for the first half, then we backed down a bit in the 2nd half, all 4 goals were scored in the first half.
Going to face another group leader in the quarters, Sydney FC.

League : Today we face the dead last with 0 points hoping for a nice result to make up for yesterday's unexpected and unwanted loss. Getting ready for tomorrow's match though, against our main rivals, FC-APK, looking for points lead again. Will try to play without main-squad players that has 1 yellow card.

Hi-ho, hi-ho, flush all scouts to flow...

[Staggy Stagg]

I have 2 easy win games against deserted teams next. However, I have 4 players on yellow cards and I would idealy like them to deliberately get another yellow in the next game (happens in real life). Would changing tactics to hard tackling help and are there any other things that I can change.

[Steppenwolf]

It wont help u much tho... My players get more cards when tackling is set to normal, than if it's set to hard...

Two milestones for Belgrade United players... Brazilian defender Djalma dos Santos played 200 games for the club and Spanish striker Edgar Ráez played 150 games...
