    Goal accomplished in the cup today, as we lost 9:0 unlocking the bad day achievement. Not quite sure how losing by 5+ goals is an achievement but i'm happy to say I've earned it.
    yeah, the achvm is bad but the picture is cool

    What have you learned from last season?

    Never underestimate your opponent even though they are significantly bigger than your teams. Also I've learnt that, equally distribution of skills as important as focusing on the skills that player need to improve based on his position.

    Where did you place last season?

    5th place, but I could have been in 8th place though.

    What's your current level?
    6

    What's your budget for this season?
    100 million.

    Who do you want to replace?
    I've got a new goalkeeper, 2 defenders which I spent approximately 35 to 40 million on that. I'm thinking to get two more centre Middlefield and maybe one more attacker.

    What are your goals for this season?

    Since I did not qualify for the champions league.To win the league championship and the Cup.

    Out of the cup already, won away 1-0 and lost at home 2-0 after my opponent bought some new players and increased his overall quality.
    Tomorrow we start the CL against the 'strangest' formation in the group. My formation still sucks and my tokens are almost out so I might just drop this season out. Will try to buy some new players when I get some more tokens. Still want to go as far as possible in the CL and league.

    That trying to maintain a full 22 man squad takes too much away from my core players to be feasible with my goals and budget

    Where did you place last season?

    Won league for 3rd time out of 4.
    Won 1st ever Champions League after losing 2 straight finals.
    Lost in playoff round of cup to the eventual runners up 4 lvls above me.

    What's your current level?

    Lvl 6 elect (5 in all seriousness, but it will be a while before there is any chance of not promoting, if that day comes)

    What's your budget for this season?
    Not sure I know the answer yet. I spent $60M on 5 new players but recouped more than half from player sales. In terms of investment about $30M

    In terms of tokens, somewhere around 500. It grows as the season goes on so that is just a ballpark. Initial investment of around 350-400T. I love that Verizon lets me add most of it to my bill. Flies under the radar better

    For those that whine about token buyers. For the first few seasons I barely had to buy any. There are a lot of ways to get free or cheap tokens such as free trials you can cancel etc. On the moral subject......This is football, people whine about Abromovich and Man City's oil money, PSG, etc. Go tell the Nord gods that the lack of FFP is making you go bankrupt chasing us, see if they agree with UEFA lol.

    I have already suggested that there should be token incentives for winning more. This would actually reward those who win in spite of budget restrictions to some extent and also give more incentives to compete for the rest of us. Tanking is sad.

    I had one team in my lvl 4 league that seriously scored 2 goals last season and conceded over 200. I beat them 28-0 in the two matches. I didn't enjoy that as much as I should. I also hate that the damn game made one opp forfeit from roster issues, just auto add 2* players until the roster is legal and play the damn game, it hurt my players stats :P

    Who do you want to replace?

    Already did that. I replaced my FB's and GK as well as my reserve attacking mids. Although the 3 replaced starters are still on the squad at present. Some will stay regardless, one in particular (LB) depends on the success of his projected replacement. Not looking good for the oldest player on the roster as the 18 yr old Nordgen newcomer had a terrific debut.

    What are your goals for this season?

    Advance further in the cup. After winning it the first 2 seasons it got very difficult given that I don't want to tear down my roster for cup draws. Last season I improved by 1 round, my goal this season is at minimum the last 16.

    Winning the league and Champions league are an expectation every season, not a goal.

    Bottom line is, if this game didn't have users who paid to get tokens then the game would quickly disappear - as those that have created it and maintain it do it to make money. Whilst some may moan about token buyers, they make the game work for the rest of us that play it for free.

    At the same time, its due to those that pay to play the game that others like me are able to farm, as advertisers see money in this game so put offers on for their content. My tokens have all come from farming, which is only available due to these advertisers, who are only here because some people pay money.

    I personally wouldn't pay for tokens, but each to their own. If no one did then we wouldn't have a game to play and no one would be able to farm tokens.

    Not ready. Thought I'd get up first couple of days for 4 new players but when it came to the crunch the Duvet won.

    Only 4 out of last seasons friends promoted so I had to add 4 more in the last week. All made it, including the 2 sides that beat me in the Cup and CL. Its going to be another tight one I think



    Didn't buy any players before Cup ties so went with 11 I had, no wingers.

    Crapped myself in 1st leg playing 4* side - after 10 mins I was 1 down, it was 1 way traffic and I thought "I'll be 4 down by HT at this rate". Thankfully I was wrong. In 2nd half I thought "I could play all day and not score", thankfully I was wrong again and we trolled 1 in 89th minute.

    In the 2nd leg I bought another hoped for "1 Season Wonder" MC - 4-0 up at HT, did 3 subs and left - final score 5-1. Opposition Manager attended both and I imagine he was really pissed off by his unlucky Cup draw. O.o

    Looks like the 3 Stooges are finally making a significant impact - this is the 4th Season I've had a level 16 Cup having been in a Level 16 Cup at level 12.
