Season 78 - Are you ready?

[Tactician]

No 5-star 'nordgens' so far; ealier there were mostly 3-star ones and only two 4 stars. This is frustrating. Now, there are 5-star 'second-hand' players, and users are already fighting for them. I have already lost 7 tokens on one player.

I won one auction, but that costed 14 tokens plus the additional money (2.1M) over the market value.

If this continues like this today, which probably seems so, I will limit the amount of players I bid on to only those that are likely to be needed for the next few days, and no more bidding over a few rounds.

Thanks to all returning Managers!
and a big Welcome to all the new Managers!

Thankyou!

Before we start, here's some questions for you:

What have you learned from last season?
Never underestimate your team (or over-estimate the opposition) purely on Quality at the start of the season - a team starting 11th in Quality in the League won the Championship last season...

Where did you place last season?
Palace Casuals: League Champions; Champions League dnq; Cup Runner-up in a Level 31 Cup.
Palace Terriers: League Runner-up; Champions League Runner-up; Cup Semi-Finalists, in a Level 12 Cup.

What's your current level?
Palace Casuals: Level 30 in their 34th season.
Palace Terriers: Level 11 in their 11th season.

What's your budget for this season?
Palace Casuals: some tokens and $6.22Bn.
Palace Terriers: 35T and $278M

Who do you want to replace?
Both teams will go on a careful replacement of lower-quality/non-performing players, mainly defenders/central midfielders in both cases.

What are your goals for this season?
Palace Casuals: League, Champions League spot; Champions League, get out of Group stage, as they are in a Level 31 CL; Cup, get as far as possible.
Palace Terriers: League, Champions League spot; Champions League, win the sucker; Cup, get as far as possible.

What's your training level?
Palace Casuals: 28.
Palace Terriers: 26.

Good luck to everybody this Season!

United have signed 3 18 year talents, since no five stars are generated ever



FireCats signed one 18 year midfielder

No generation or display of 5-star 'nordgens' is frustrating, especially when you have to up your quality or desperately need players having certain positions. It seems that some users might be convinced to quit the game if it continues this way.

I have experienced poor transfer markets in terms of 'nordgens' in the past, but today, so far, it seems to be one of the worst, especially for a first day of a season. I had to fight up to the higher knockout rounds to get second-hand players today, and still I have not got players for some positions that I don't even have one player for or have cover for. I think, when it is like this, it better to deal with the situation with what we have in the team rather than wasting tokens in the action market (and also paying significantly higher money as compared to the market value), and if this happens too frequently, it is probably better to use the negociations' page and/or recommendations page rather than bidding for a 5 star 'second-hand' player up to the higher rounds where still there is a risk of losing.

Real shortage of 5* players in the Level 30 Transfer Market - but after a fight, Palace Casuals managed to pick up a legend...



Let's hope the Playmaker SA means something...

[nikolgiorgos]

The target from previous season was to go for three trebles
Ok, I got some plates too


training levels 26, 21,22

This season my reserves, TIGRAN, starting from the beginning and staying there for 1-2 seasons as going for the treble is too hard for 3 teams at the same time.
Good luck to all of you

great sell of reserve player

[Sweed Mind]

What have you learned from last season?
That everything is possible. Never would have quess that wining the Treble was possible, certainly not when i look at the season in wich getting the right result was not easy. Spend a lot of hours analysing, getting the right lineup, using the skills and abilitys from the player and opponents and getting the players perform. But what a season!!

Where did you place last season?
Champions League Winner; Cup Winner in a level 12 Cup. Winning my first Treble!


What's your current level?
Level 10 in 10th season

What's your budget for this season?
a few tokens and about 150m. Right now building a new 73K stadium

Who do you want to replace?
At least i want a well performing amr/amc/aml

What are your goals for this season?
Promotion in the leaque.
Playing in the CUP. No target
CL at least semi final.
After a great season my main target is to get more specialized on the training and player cohesion. Got some good talents who with good trainigdrills will be the teamankers the coming seasons.

What's your training level?
26

Good luck to everybody this Season!

Palace Casuals Season Preview.

Palace Casuals start their 34th season at Level 30, at least in the League. In the Champions League, they are grouped with Level 31 teams, and have a higher Level Cup, too.

The Playing Squad, along with their Casuals Career-to-Date stats



Casuals are going to have difficulty in enhancing their squad through the Transfer Market this season, if the day 1 TM is to be believed - very few 5* players avaialble, and those that are, and have decent Quality (x8/x9) are few and far between, resulting in Manager Bidding Frenzy... The Management obviously got lucky with #17 Iniesta this morning, as only had to fight off two other bidders.

The Champions League Group stage draw



The Cup has the following 128 teams in it:
Level 29: 13; Level 30: 56; Level 31: 47; Level 32: 4; Level 33: 7; Level 34: 1

Palace Terriers Season Preview.

Palace Terriers start their 11th season at Level 11 in both the League and Champions League, and have a higher Level Cup to compete in.

The Playing Squad, with their Terriers Career-to-Date stats:



Terriers' Transfer Market is not very good, either, a few more 5* players available, but all really old or with low Quality for the star rating.

Champions League Group stage draw



The Cup has the following 128 teams in the draw:
Level 10: 1; Level 11: 23; Level 12: 61; Level 13: 39; Level 14: 4.
