No, I'm not
Need more time to come back and rebuild the team

[Davy Gravy]

Further to my last, as Chris Nik, Greek Mod, has said elsewhere. CL is gone downhill as clubs 1 Lvl higher are appearing regularly in CL group draw. So my aim is now to finish 3rd in CL group stage to get into "europa' league.

What have you learned from last season?
Probably I am poor at managing high quality team.

Where did you place last season?

Level 32 team: league 2nd, Cup 1st
(excellent 2nd half season. Probably it was the only 60 point season that I could not win the league)

Level 37 team: league 10th
(One of the most terrible run during middle of last season and also lost last 3 matches. My team was quite young, almost 7 star near the end of last season, probably higher in quality than any other team in league in last season. But I never well manage high quality team. Probably I need at least a few player change in other to fix performance problem.)

Are you participating in the new Association's Cup ?
No.

What are your achievements ?
N/A

What's your current level?
Level 33 & 37

What's your budget for this season?
Level 33: about 16.3B cash, 21Tokens
Level 37: about 22.7B cash, 89Tokens

Who do you want to replace?
N/A

What are your goals for this season?
I don't want to involve in SL. Both my team need not to play SL at season beginning. But L33 team may drop to SL after group phase.

Anyway, after playing 3 seasons, I will not continue in this season. Probably I may still be active enough to keep the team existing.

What's your training level?
N/A (using old version only)


Hope everybody who still plays will enjoy new version and competitions in this season! Don't let any imperfect design of the game or uneven sharing of resources making you unhappy. Just set realistic and challenging targets. Enjoy the challenge!

3 active teams this season
NIK won the league, lost in quorter finals of CH.L. and won the Cup.
This season also aiming for the treble.
RINOKEROS won the second treble, playing in a +1 lv CH.L. and won a +3 lv team in the Cup final.
Not sure what to do this season, as I 'm playing in a +1 lv CH.L. again (as NIK)
Very disapointed with this situation.
ManU activated again to participate in the new Super league.
Probably gonna stay in the same level.
All the teams participating in associations and promoted to Silver 1

Training level NIK 52, the other less.

What I've learned from last season :
4-1-2-1-2 is my all time favourite formation

Roster Changes :
I'm in dire need of a 5 star MC. Haven't win any auctions so far...

Targets :
I'll give no attention to my cup. 4 TIMES IN A ROW BEING PITTED AGAINST A TEAM A STAR ABOVE ME?!

Experiments :
- Maybe try to train tokened academy player? Just to see if he is a fast trainer or not...
- Using 4 Star GK in all of my games this season. Petrus Sutarto has been playing for 4 years as 5 star player, however... (Inspired from Nikolgiorgos)

Budget :
150K oh Cash, 200 Tokens

Star Players :
AMC. Cho Kwan-Myong (Highest Overall)
STs Alfian Himawan and Shinji Okazaki (Goal Machines)
All Rounder backs Abdul Mu'iz Sisa and Firli Apriansyah (C)

1th day of season when you realize you should not tank in the cup

[Al Svanberg]

Cry...



Its been like this for Al FC the last while. The thing is, there is a lot of talk about if skill matters back and forth etc. Al FC is good, 112%, finished last season at 132%, but last year the wings have been a lot weaker than previous years, while the core has been stronger. Playing 5-4-1 I have strong core no matter what, but I need strong wings.

I think in this game, there always is a big risk from drawing the wrong conclusions. But I get a very strong feeling that it certainly matters a lot where on the field you have your talent, how good your team is in different areas. Now my right side is OK and my left side is weak. Before when my right side was weak, I also struggled a lot...
