Yupp! But the funny part was that I played with a "normal" mentality. Had a couple of players below 70% cond, so I didnt go "all in". Imagine how it would look like with attacking or quit attacking mentality?
Anyway. Think I´m gonna test the 4-5-1 (V) formation tomorrow in my league and CL games.... There is an interesting 18yr old bulgarian (4* though) ML+AML on the Transfermarkt
PROUD MANAGER OF...

So Harrogate Town had both of there games in a 20 minute gap. After the first game I had 10 minutes to do the fix up of the squad to get them ready for the 2nd game
Battle Royale Cup Play-Off Round 2nd Leg: GergerFC 2-2 Harrogate Town
Goals: Ali (3'), Katemanee (36'), Hirwan (48'), Norris (60')
MOTM: Giel
So this was a go for broke game for Harrogate as they were 1-0 down fron the 1st leg. In the 3rd minute GergerFC took the lead through Ali from a through ball by Tamwiset. It was looking bleak for Harrogate. In the 14th minute it looked bad as Blackstone picked up an ACL tear that would keep him out for 5 days, so Harrogate manager through on Ade Daud to replace him. Then in the 36th minute Katemanee doubled GergerFC's lead. Town really were looking like they were heading out of the cup.
Half time came and Winder took the risk by taking off DMC Haruno and put on Hirwan. 3 minutes in to the second half Hirwan latched onto a great ball from Bale and headed it past the keeper. Town looked resurgent and had the bit between there teeth. Then in the 53rd minute Madali was booked for a foul on Norris. Then just 4 minutes later an identical challenge on Norris from Madali again saw him sent off. Then just 3 minutes after going down to 10 men GergerFC were hit on the break and Giel crossed for Norris to fire a volley into the bottom corner. The game looked like Harrogate were going to manage to get the final goal needed to get an away goal victory. But it wasn't to be. No matter how much they pushed they just couldn't find the back of the net.
Harrogate Town came so close to getting through to the last 16 of the cup but just couldn't find that final goal needed.
I had enough time to use the magic red packs to heal Blackstone so he could turn out in the league game and use green packs to restore condition.
League Round 8: FC Louis 0-2 Harrogate Town
Goals: Bale (28', 67')
MOTM: Bale
This was a game I was just hoping to win with it being just minutes after the cup game finished. It was a very uninteresting game really apart from the 2 goals which were both 30 yarders from Bale which left the keeper no chance to get to as they both rocketed into the top corner. The 1st in the top right then the 2nd in the top left.
I am sad we have gone out the cup but it does mean we get a little bit of rest every other day now. And as for the league I am still undefeated winning all 8 games so far and still only conceded 1 goal.

Season 1 League: Winners
Season 2 League: 2nd, Champions League: Runners up
Season 3 League: 1st, Champions league: Quarter Finals, Cup: Play-Off
Another logical League win tonight, still not receive goal this season, but unfortunately another injuried in this round, 2nd today and 7h in last 6 days.
But was one more thing that draw me atention. Counter-attacks are unchecked in orders, and 2 of my 3 DC made a superb counter-attack finalized with goal. Consider this so real, like injuries in the last week...
PS. besides this assist, Meyer scores another 2 goals.

Got through in the cup. 2-1 for me at home and 0-4 away. A level above me but same level of quality. Very glad he didn't show up to watch because he made some good subs last time around that changed the game totally. Wins in the league and CL as usuall so I'm still undefeated this year.
This is what to do if your out the cup...
