I don't know why, but I always have better luck with ND against these formations with a central line of players rather than any formation with wide players...

Day 14 - Palace teams report.
Boxing Day here in the UK, and a day out shopping with the family - the Management had to let the teams get on with it without any supervision.
Palace Terriers were at home against 12th place, and a second day without an injury - both the strikers got braces...

The leaders slipped up at home to 7th place, so he came and supported against the Terriers, but that didn't stop them going top. As they say, revenge is a dish best served cold...

Palace Casuals were away at 7th place, and they were the first team this season to put out a higher-Q starting XI against Casuals. Mohamed Monney transgressed a couple of times and was back in the changing room by the mid-point of the first half, but by then Casuals were already a goal to the good. The home side missed a penalty before MoM Mario Dinamarca scored Casuals' second goal in a 2-1 win.

Coming up tomorrow, 2nd vs 1st to finish up the first half of the season. As the reverse fixture is the last game of the season, if the League positions stay the same, it will be a very interesting finale indeed...
Look at these beauty's on the transfer market!

Today just keeps getting better and better.
Phoenix United win
Liverpool beat Leicester City
Great signing for a bargain!
Pretty intense game. One of the DC gets a red card, but the GK saves the penalty :D. After we scored, i take off the red arrows on the wingers, but it was awful. The team started to play bad and the opponent scores, so i put the arrows again and luckily we got the winning goal and we keep the 1st place in the table.

Today, my ST scored 2 goals and 1 asist, so maybe i will considerer put 2 strikers at front in the future.
Good management Alan well done :)
A bad night .. again :(

That concludes our business :D
Be careful when you use him.
Based on my perspective, this one and another one ST/AMC, are not really as good as they seem to be.
They don't perform consistently and the high rates they got could be from the matches they play against weak teams, this was why the seller sold them.
But the good part is that they are still young and have played at least season with the seller; if you power train them they might be able to play well due to over-performance against your opponents.
I have the sensation that ma record of consecutive CL's can finish if I do not invest in greens.... and not training the ST's... but powertraining the defense and MC's... let's see LOL
Day 15 - Palace Terriers Champions League report.
Up at some unearthly hour of the morning for an away match against a South Korean team, whose manager didn't turn up...
Attachment 59994
All of a sudden, Terriers have come across several teams playing this formation - for some reason it is incredibly hard to break down the defence, unless for some inexplicable reason they are using hard defensive with this apparently attacking formation...

Atlético Kolkata Day 14 Report
We missed a chance to go to 3rd as we drew 1-1 at home on Boxing Day. Both the managers were present, the stadium was full house, but the opponent had 4 supporters. The goal was conceded in the 14'. But ST Lewis assisted AML Andrew John the equaliser in 35'(as expected by the strikers.) Adriano Baert suffered a groin strain and would be out for 2 days.
This is the 500th post :cool:
Day 15 - Palace Casuals report.
The big match at the top of the table ended with honours even in a 0-0 draw, giving the teams in 3rd and 4th places a chance to catch up and make it a three/four horse race at the top of the table - neither of which took it as they both lost to bottom half opposition. Casuals 'keeper Jose Maria Rojo took the MoM award, winning on saves 5-3 against his opposite number.
Not a lot to cheer about in first leg. 1-1 away goal.
Pitry grabbing an early goal only for my CB to give away a penalty on the 80th minute.
4-5-1v vs narrow diamond but opponent got "gave 120%" so maybe they just had a good game.
Not the result I wanted before a vital league game vs 1st placed he's lining up 4-3-2w-1
My CBs form is 7-9-6-7-6 is it time to drop him?
yeeaay my recomended player got a MVP. after 5-5-6 he has been playing rather well

lets hope he keeps the momentum

My level 22 team had an unsatisfactory result of drawing in CL home match about 3 hours ago. But all my attention are on the upcoming league match against my rival about 30 minutes later.
As usual, I consider the opponent is favorite to win. As usual, this team is about 7q higher in average quality than my team. All his expected starters are 7 star and with SA. In contrast, my starters will include 9 5-star and 2 star only. All my 3 other 6 star players will not be at bench today. To avoid the first ever league loss to this team, I decided to use a most defensive formation ever - 4-2-3w-1.
I well understand this team. It use 4-4-2 forever and rely on quality to win matches. Usually it does not score a lot in matches but can win. In the past, I used various different formation against it and I satisfied with all previous match results. At this moment, my team form is not too good. So I prefer to be even more defensive.

Power trained and ready for his debut. Need some luck as I'm up against 2 world class wingers.
Day 15 - Palace Terriers League report.
Frustrating 2-2 draw against 10th place team, couldn't get a winner after they equalised the second time...
Attachment 60025
The result is not satisfactory but also not disappointing. I don't think my strategy failed. It is reasonable that the opponent won. Some of my players have very bad match rating in this match but in the past, even if my team defeated this team, some of my players also have bad match ratings.. Performance of GK might affect the result, but I cannot complain as I stole some victories from mistakes of his GK in the past.
