Great job Raykco :) very good results :P
Undefeated so far and through two rounds of the cup against 2-3 league levels higher than me. It feels like this years edition of the CL and league will be the easiest for me so far. The best team after me in CL is 10 quality points worse than my team. The only thing that can ruin this is the one off game in the final in CL where the randomness factor can ruin it. My first eleven just barely consists of scout players. Not going to spend any tokens to get them higher than that since cost curve is to high. Only bought two players as backup this season.
Battle Royale Cup Qualifying Round: Blue Army 3(4)-(4)2 Harrogate Town
Goals: Fikri (24'Pen, 90'), Viloria (32'), Daud (73'), Bale (81')
MOTM: Fikri
Tough Challenge For Harrogate Town in Indonesia.
This will go down as a close game and David Winder will be relieved its over.
!st Half started cagey, Blue Army know they need to get a result here by 2 goals ideally and Harrogate feel the pressure. In a bizarre incident in the 24th minute a corner for Blue Army Blackstone gets booked for handball and Naruto Uzumaki gets a straight Red for spitting at an opponent. The resulting penalty is put away calmly by Fikri. 8 minutes later Viloria doubles the lead for Blue Army with a header from a Fikri cross. This is looking bad for Harrogate now.
2nd half and Harrogate look a little more relaxed. but just can't beat the keeper. Winder decides to to bring Blackstone off and put on Ade Daud in the 63rd minute. This turns out to be a stroke of genius by the manage. 10 minutes after coming on Daud scores a magnificent 30 yard goal with it bending away from the keeper all the time. Then with 9 minutes left in the game Daud turns provider this time crossing from the right and Bale heads home to make it 2-2 on the night. Harrogate's travelling fans are celebrating that goal like they won the cup. But with seconds left a corner for Blue Army sees Fikri score again with a header. The ref blows his whistle for full-time.
Harrogate suffer there 1st loss of the season but still advance through to the Playoff round of the cup. Harrogate Manager David Winder will be furious with Uzumaki though for that incident. He refused to comment to the press after the match stating he just wanted to get the lads home and regroup.
Incase people wonder the commentary actually said. "Uzumaki spits at another footballer. Ref sends him off."
I get my youth players tomorrow...For the first time, I will use tokens to sign them in an attempt to find out how fast they are at training.. Who knows, if they are very fast then they will be trained to 7*! Watched enough videos in the past week to cover for the token cost
Today, Ottawa Blue Claw visit Taruna FC of Indonesia (May Caroline is their coach). Another good performance by the falcon in a victory of 2-0 for the visitor. The first half, Ottawa Blue Claw and Taruna FC were very even. It was difficult for Falcon to get into the Taruna FC's area. in the 42' Krautzun score the first goal after a mistake made by Taruna FC. The second half, Ottawa Blue Claw still dominate a little bit of the field. 67' Craig Rayner surprise Taruna FC's defender and score the 2-0 for Ottawa Blue Claw. With this result, Ottawa maintain the first place in the League. Now they have to return to Ottawa to play against NACIONAL of Uruguay.
After the match, a small conference was held in Indonesia. The manager Francesco Guan was the only person present.
Q: How did you find the match?
A: Unfortunately, we could not score 10-0 like last week. 2-0 is still a great result. This keep the confidence of our player.
Q: Are your team ready to play against NACIONAL?
A: I suppose. I did change the formation to play against NACIONAL. They are more superior than us and they have more experience than us (they are level 6). However, we have an advantage of 4-1 home win from last match. We are really hoping to pass to the next stage.
Q: Last question, How did you find Rayner performance? How about Philip performances?
A: He always plays at his max. He is just as many of you said, he is god. Craig is always there to give the capital falcons hopes. Philip McKennily is doing a great performance, 3 clean sheet so far. Good luck charm for our team. I hope he doesn't get bored his teammates protect the area for him. (laugh)
This is all for the Falcon TV. Hope you enjoyed it. See you later when Ottawa Blue Claw vs NACIONAL on wednesday (at18:48). This is sponsor by:

I'm so glad that cup game is over. Just sad Naruto won't be able to play in either of the games in the next round.
CUp is pulling lots of crap these days lol. Was cheering for Baku since it woulda have been nice for them to have to play more matches outta league (evil grin) but no matter how many teams they shoot and dominated, match ended 0-0. Never seen so many "goes wide" in my life lol. Sorry to hear you out, July :( let's go for a beer then :]
Todays league game wasn't anything special so just posting result together with yesterdays result as I didn't update those.

how do you take screen shots of your top eleven page?
There's a button called "PRTSC" or "PRTSCN" at the top of your keyboard, it's FN + PRTSCN on some laptops. Press that and paste it into microsoft paint or any photo editing software. Crop it and save it, then you can upload directly here or if you want it larger then upload it to a photo hosting website like photobucket or tinypic
ah cheers. I thought it was 'print screen' just didn't think to copy and paste it on microsoft paint or something.
for mac user is easier...but we know that we are better :D

Hope to do it....
League game in 5 mins, guess the both of us will be watching the match. He kept changing his squad formation :)

Balkan Boyz - Matchday 6 (Sz.3 - lvl3)
LEAGUE: ROUND 4
Opponent: DCrew (Brunei)
Result: 9 - 0(Home win)
Scorers: A.Halilović (10min, 36min), M.Pjanić (11min, 56min and 89min), L.Modrić (33min), X.Shaqiri (42min), M.Nastasić (70min) and Z.Ibrahimović (84min)
Man of the match: Miralem Pjanić (Hattrick)
1th eleven squad: A.Begović, S.Hajrović, N.Tomović, S. Bečirević (C), A.Otyrov, M.Pjanić, A.Halilović, X.Shaqiri, D.Stanković, L.Modrić and Z.Ibrahimović
Summary: In the 4th round we faced a bot-robot team (abandoned) from Brunei which we picked piece by piece and finally won by 9-0 after 90min play. Our GK, A. Begović got injured in the second half after a hard tackle and was therefore not able to continue, but we managed to play with one man short without conceiving' a goal which was quit impressive. Also, M. Pjanić scored a hattrick and was therefore honoured as "man-of-the-match", (his second this season in the league play). Tomorrow we are facing our biggest rival - FC Kula - and I´m quit optimistic that we will win this one as well, but you never know whit the T11 engine - it could fool you. :D
CUP: ROUND 2 (2nd leg)
Opponent: VEROFIT FC (Switzerland)
Result: 1 - 0 (Away defeat)
Scorers: K. Šabanadžović (37min)
Man of the match: E.de Oliviera
1th eleven squad: A.Begović, S.Hajrović, S.Kolašinac, S. Bečirević (C), A.Otyrov, M.Pjanić, D.Stanković, L.Modrić, A.Ljajić (X.Shaqiri) , M.Özil (A.Halilović),. and Z.Ibrahimović
Summary: So there were we, "The big game" as the FOX Deportes commentators would say, and it sure was! The first meeting ended in a dramatical draw, 2-2 and we were more or less forced to win this one if we were able to proceed to the next stage. Because of my limited squad and tactical options, I started with a 4-5-1 (flat) formation with a normal mentality against his 4-4-2 (wide - narrow diamond) attacking formation to gain some possesion in the middle and it seemd to work until the 37min when they took an surprisingly lead from nowhere. We hade like 2 or 3 quit good chances to score in the first 20min (freekick, corner and a one-on-one opportunitie) but unfortunately the ball didnt go in. In the second half, he changed to a more aggressively play and gain more ballpossesion (his friend joined as "suppport) so I decided to play a 4-3-2-1 formation (quit offensive and aggressively aswell) and recapture the possesion, something that seemed to work as we pushed them back from our half and increased our attacks and for a while he seemd to panic a little bit and played more aggressively then before. This resulted in a booking (yellow) which meant that one of his defenders will miss the next round. Unfortunately we were not able to get a equalizer and our journey in the CUP competition ended, aswell our first defeat this season. Despite the defeat and elimination in the CUP-play, I´m quit satisfied in the way we managed/played against our opponents (both heavy token buyers) and I´m quit optimistic that we will do better next time. :cool:
Over&out!
I think my league opponents is starting to hate me

I manage to win and convert the previous game ( 2-1 ) for him.
The game ended in 2-0 for me and I qualify. It was harder than I thought, he had very strong defensive tactics, but el shaarawy and messi finally scored 2 gols!
It was a pretty hard opponent.
actually first in champions,
qualify in cup
and second in league with 3 victory and a draw.
the first one is an unexpected player that managed to win all his game but it doesn't count too much for us!
Hopefully i am not going to meet any forum members in my upcoming season, guess it would be rather awkward
