Close game for Palace Casuals this evening, 1-0 win at home, so still at the top. After a few games with max. attendance, not full today - so WTF affects attendance - not as if the opponents were a low-placed team...
On the player side, new 'keeper scored a 7 so looks like we have someone to carry on with...

"If the player have to be injuried, injuried will be. It doesn's matter if will be doing stretching or a mortal kombat kombat, the destiny, is the destiny"
LOL
So since there is only 6 days left in the season, I've started to sell off a few players to get my squad down to 14 players. A slight risk with key games to come, but here's hoping I avoid the injury plague.
However it means some tough decisions have had to been made. Four players have hit the blocks so far, reserve Gk, a fairly average MR/DMR, a DR (just sold) and my striker who has been with us for 6 seasons! Feeling a bit sentimental but he just doesn't perform the way he used to. Also have a AML/ML/DML, a DC and a DMC/DC. About 650 games worth of experience here but it's time to freshen up :(

I feel like a Dad watching his kids leave home, this is distressing!
p.s If anyone is level 9-12 feel free to bid ;)
Because I only have room for one Gk in a 14/15 player squad. He's been a life saver whilst my main Gk was injured and out of form but now that he's back to the goods (I'm talking 7/8/9's every game usually) I'll drop Mr 7 :p
I only bought him as a stop gap measure whilst Chojecki was playing crap haha.

Champions League Semi-Final 1st Leg news: Palace Casuals lose 2-3 at Diptesh FC in India, with two away goals in hand looking forward to 2nd Leg :)
MC Muscroft opened the scoring in the 36th minute, Diptesh equalising just after the break. Striking partners Ramos and Pinto combined to put the Casuals ahead again in the 54th minute, Pinto netting the cross, but two late goals by the hosts clinched the game. MC Christie and DL/DC Jones picked up bookings, the latter will sit out the 2nd Leg...
The evening drama over and done with, and Palace Casuals have lost top spot in the League after a 1-3 away defeat at Izmir SK. Home side were playing some distorted version of 4-4-2 and the Management tried both 3N-4-1-2 and 4-5-1V at various times in the match but couldn't break through until late on, when left winger Hansen rammed a free-kick past the 'keeper for a consolation goal.
Casuals now 2 points adrift in second place, but if they can keep their home form up and sneak some away points then they can still contend for the Championship...
League: 3 points back of first, but still have my league match scheduled for later tonight. 1st drew 0-0 today with a mid-table team, same middle table I had drew 2:2 with a few days ago.
Champions: 0:3 away win. It was my 3w-4-3 against his 4-1-4-1. I was expecting a little more challenging matchup, since this is the same team I manhandled in the cup quarterfinals recently. However, he used the same strategy he did in the cup, and it ended up with the same scoreline as our first leg cup tilt. 2nd leg he also used 4-1-4-1, but I used 4-4-2 classic; he then switched to attacking sets; 3w-4-3 and 3n-4-3; which are kind of strange choices to run against a 4-4-2! Now its just time to wait and see if he'll make the adjustments for our second leg.
The other half of the bracket had the game of the year, a 6:5 win for the home side. Their goalkeepers combined for an "8" rating...

4-0 for Bayern without attend against the... 5th? lol Tomorrow we have the match against the 3rd, then all will be easy, because I faced the 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 6th.
Port Vale won too, 8-1 againsth the 9th, and have +9 points, if the 2nd looses a match we have the title. If we win 2 matches we have the title. :D
Yuju. lol
My guys surprise me each season again,not getting old,on fire,right on time. 1:2 away in Cl,on the way to the 9th consecutive final,and right now big away win 0:2 vs friend in 2nd:-)Attachment 47829
I feel like I'm spamming, but anyway you guys can get over it :p
Faced 8th and 6th in the league, winning 1-4 and 3-1 respectively.
So after Ty (2nd place) closed the gap to 2 points only 3 games ago, I have stretched the lead to 9 points. If I win next match I am Champion! Face 5th,9th,12th and 13th in my remaining matches so I should cruise home now.
:D

Had the first leg of the CL SF (away). He came in with a 4-1-13W-1 formation which confused me for a bit. So I decided to try win the MC battle and play 4-1-2-1-2 Narrow Diamond. It was a pretty disappointing affair, and whilst i clearly won the MC battle and had plenty of chances to score, none of my guys could finish it off (My ST did get a 9 somehow though). Tried some late changes to a 4-5V-1 formation to try get that all important away goal but it stayed 0-0. Hopefully I can clear up in the home leg.
Attachment 47841
Still on track for the League/CL double!
Also continue to sell off players in preparation for next season, I'm now down to a squad of 17 players! 3 to go (I may end up dumping them if I can't sell)
I am trying this too, but nobody wants to buy my players, it feels very lonely :(
Attachment 47843
Maybe its because of the 5 days ban :rolleyes: (Copa de America)
Haha now why would a 5 day ban dissuade someone from buying that fine specimen :o
I face a dilemma with this guy
Attachment 47844
He's been fantastic for 5 seasons, but very injure prone and average this season (currently out for 4 days) :(
Do I quickly powertrain him to be in Negotiations, or is it too late in the season and I just get rid of him for cheap?
Out of cup 3-0 agg
Victory of Port Vale against the 4th, for 0-1 scored in the minute 89' :D
We need only +3 points to have the title if the 2nd win, if don' win +2.
Beyrn München play tonight.
(I can not upload pics sorrry lol)
What a cup I am currently having. My team works like a charm :D
It took me about 15 seasons,but I am again in the Cup final. Not to mention the agg scores so far:

Just hope I am not too enthusiastic this time.
@Crister
You're definitely doing something right in your home matches :o
He is a classic 4-4-2 player with slightly better overall quality (96.8 vs 97). He is currently 9th in his league and he had a hard time qualifing for the final(won 3-3 with the away goal rule). My team has certainly the potential to beat him,but let see how Nordeus chooses to roll the dices.
