Weird how Shakes is not really a goal scorer (only 5 this season in league) but when it comes to assists, he's the leader along with some other player:

This is unreal!!

The breakdown of what happened...
,
We lose a goal from a corner and then they get a penalty and then they get another goal from the counter... It was just us unable to break them down for the remainder of the game. Their 5* defenders playing like 9* defenders as usual. Wow.
A huge defeat for us, our first ever defeat in the CL... And that kills our string of doubles. Just the league to go now.
No.... :(... The game engine gremlins are out in force and this could spell bad news for July Fourth this evening...
No... I can't get believe Perfect Tactics lose 3-0 against a mediocre team... :mad:
I'm already nervous about my second leg tonight, but after this I'm now kind of afraid that I can get turned over ourselves, we lose tonight and our season is OVER basically.
I just don't know what to say, it was a full 5* team... My 3-1-3-2-1 always beats 4-3-3 but I have no idea what happened today... Players just not up for it I guess
What to do now... If I throw away the league with 10 points clear I'm quitting and never investing again
The thing is the guy I played is clueless, he made no changes at all despite being present! He probably won't even make the finals!! I deserve to be there but it was just some crazy game engine... Throwing away a 3-1 home lead is bad enough... Ugh.... This is hard to take in
He must of thought that the XI he had on the field was enough to do the job and also was unsure whether to make any tactical or straight swap substitutions, also he gave his team the possession bonus to help his team, I guess he got lucky and got a result he would get in about 1 in 25 or so attempts, He would of been about 10/1 to qualify, but we all have to suffer a bad one at sometime with our teams, It could happen to me tonight as well and I wouldn't be surprised if it did.
So counter formations out of the window... Totally flawed concept as at times it just doesn't make any sense. Any emails relating to it will be ignored as I think it's just a waste of time. I'm supposed to bust this guy and he ends up getting a freak result.
His MC scores twice with ease which doesn't make sense because he's covered by 4 players in the middle... And then for some reason my players can't get past his when they are only double marked...
Don't expect me to be active on here now, just the daily post here and there and I'm off.
Basically now your saying the game is random. I think it is run by a RNG algorithm that takes into both teams quality and other factors to simulate a 90 minute result, so some randomism takes place but superior teams normally will win, but every so often being 10-15Q better than our opponents we sometimes draw or even lose still. You were due a lose a game in the League/CL, youve gone like 4 seasons without losing in either competition.
I wouldn't have cared if I lost 1-0 or 2-1.. But losing 3-0 is just taking the piss, especially after winning the home leg 3-1. Yeah, sure I was due a loss but i didn't expect it to be like that.. it's our worst defeat in over 3 seasons, not even in the cup have we lost this badly. Just time to move on and win the league now.. That's the only thing I can go for.
I think I was spoiled with too many trophies...League should be ok so not all that PT gone to waste
This will go down as a freak result... I think 4-3-3 is my kryptonite, I almost lost against it last season against Oat FC if you remember we had an amazing come back only this time there was no spectacular finish.. Just needed 1 goal and we couldn't get that
Like you with the PT I've won all the leagues/cl's since I started as well in the last 4 seasons, and I've won 26 trophies in total since I started T11, so like yourself I'm due to lose something as well. All on tonight though, we lose - end of season because we are 9 points clear if HONDA 2 win this evening with superior goal difference and we won't lose league I don't think. we win then we play a similar quality team to our opponents tonight in the semi-finals and the final will be against a team around 95-98 quality.
My league unbeaten run ended at 81 games last season, 5 games short of my record. but since that loss, weve now gone on another unbeaten run of 40 games and counting.
CL. we have lost 1 game in the last 61 games since losing twice against Batigo United.(but we didn't have any PT players just came up short in a Token Farmer vs Token Buyer battle that season.)
Thanks for the support from 2 days ago
I managed to overcome the defeat in the CL and win 3-0 at home with Bale the decisive man (1 goal, 2 assits)
Also i got 13 points in front of the 2nd place in the league
Tomorrow the cup semifinal
Go Aliens
Special thanks to PricopCatalin who seems to be my lucky charm:)))
Yeah I think like that too, rather lose in the QF or Last 16, than on the Final on penalties (which has happened to me twice in the CL final)
I've lost 5 CL finals, Lost 2 on penalites after 2-2 draws, lost 2 finals 2-0, and lost a final 5-0 when played 4-4-2 against a ND when I never thought there is such a thing as counter formations around. BUT I never visited T11 forums (old or new forum) around then.
Oh well, you can't win them all, right? I'll be happy with the league win.. As long as it's not trophyless then i'll be happy, although not as happy as I'm missing out on game time and extra cash.
I'm going to play some friendlies now for SP, I have my 2nd team and my forum team to play against.
A very stupid draw for us against 2nd :-s
Here we go... ST.KOOZ United vs July Fourth... 2nd Leg. Less than 10 mins.
Playing without Papaleo and Miku here, 4-5-1 V-style is our selected starting formation. Zidane on AMR and Michu as the lone man upfront.
It's pointless because we found that out last season lowering our 22 man averagw to 98.3 (8 unsigned players brought it 95.4) and still got matched up with the 105ers at the beginning of the season.
I just played my CL Quarter-Final and match report to follow in around 15 minutes.
**** !
I didn't watch my league game, so I found out that I lost 1-0 against the 11th of the table, I am 55Q and he is 41Q ..
but the good news, the 2nd lost also, so the difference remains 11pts ..
I know I will win the league, but the games I didn't win (2 losses and 1 draw) are pissing me off, because they're all against weaker sides, and were all strange ..
League: We confortably won 6-0 home against a team which even being 1 star avg didn't let us score for a good 30 mins. In the second half we took over easily altho the last 3 goals were all scored in the end.
Scorers: J.Mason (13'), D.Mellow (33'), M. Stein (50'), M.Lenders (77'), J.Derrick (87'), P.Callaghan (89').
MoM: R.Flanagan (8), New Team. (???)
CL: We won 1-0 Home in the second leg against Neudorf United, hence passing to the semifinals with a 4-1 aggregate. Not much to say as we had full favor bar in our advantage and 60% ball possession, and yet in the end we shooted 10/6 against his 17/5. The new keeper (Q37) we bought instead of the substitute one performed well in both matches.
Scorers: F.Shirou (FK).
MoM: O.Hutton (8), New Team.
Afterthoughts
Well lately not much to say really. We do seem to dominate every single match yet having difficulties to score. On the other side, we still get weird MoMs despite some player's perfomances are way better than said MoM. Our Aml despite scoring and being the most noticed one scored another 5 today. Clueless. Proof is that this season is hard to see a 9 scored on my side, while last one was full of. Weirdd.
Another injury in the CL cup and next time i'll face this guy, i'll be sure to set on hard tacklng. 3 injuries in 2 matches are bound to that. Useless to be said, Stein injured himself after 5 minutes he got in, OF COURSE being the last sub available. SO yeah, another 25 mins in 10 for New Team.
FC Kneipenkick is on track.
League:
With a 2-0 at "Kelantan FC" (4-1-4-1 vs. 4-2W-2N-1-1) we could hold the league lead and stay 1 point above redzone. Tomorrow we face "KIZILTEPE", the 3rd in table.
CL:
And in the CL FCK advanced to the semis with a 3-1 vs. Tundra. Tundra could equalize Kneipenkicks 1-0 away from the first leg after 11 minutes, but FCK's players had trust into their 4-4-2 vs. 5-4-1 set-up and Kunz (18.), Decker (37.) and Díaz-Rahi (39.) secured a safe win before half-time. The 3-1 half-time result was also the final result, so FCK advanced 4-1 on aggregate. In the semis we will face a Thai team, that invested quite strong lately. We hope to select a good tactics and be in good form against them.
Management:
We sold today our 2* youth player Raphael Gumbrect (DC/DMC) and wish him luck at his new side Fenerbahce (level 2). The 3* prospect (despite being 1 point away from 3*) is dismissed.
CHAMPIONS LEAGUE QUARTER-FINAL 2ND LEG
ST.KOOZ United 1-7 July Fourth
July Fourth win 7-1 on aggregate
ST.KOOZ United 100.3 4-3N-1-2 - July Fourth 108.3 4-5-1 V First Half, 3-5-2 V Second Half.
This CL Quarter-Final was a classic and a memorable match for us here especially our second half performance when questions were asked of our team. ST.KOOZ United started the game well and strong and had a couple of early chances that Adams and Ramirez blocked, Then we gave away a silly free-kick with Norris tripping the attacker and getting a yellow card, up stepped Alavi for ST.KOOZ to send it around the wall and it gave ST.KOOZ the lead and the upset was on. 3 minutes later Norris gave away another free-kick and this time was sparred his blushes from the referee and ST.KOOZ also got this on target and Seaman this time saved it, ST.KOOZ enjoyed most of the first half by continuing to put pressure on us from a corner headed away by Ramirez, Ospina then had 2 attacks, firstly blocked by Norris and then tackled by Adams, It took 39 minutes for July Fourth to get their first attack in by Zidane which got cut out by Alstig, Moments later Norris who gave away those free-kicks earlier in the 1st half got his act together and got hold of the ball got past the last defender and fired in the shot and beat the keeper for us to get that away goal. Norris 3 minutes later had an attack cut out by Holst.
At half-time we gave the team talks and then decided we still needed to do something, we decided to throw the kitchen sink at ST.KOOZ and bring off Hogan and brought on Papaleo for the second half and switched from 4-5-1 V to 3-5-2 V and we had 45 mins to find out if this would win us or lose us the tie...
The 2nd half begun and July Fourth being told just to go for it and play attacking football and win the tie. Zidane run with the ball and Holst knocked it away for the corner, Michu crossed it in and the keeper grabbed it out the air, Then a minute later Michu was up with the ball and knocked it past the defender and then hit it hard past the keeper to put us in front and with the away goal rule we were in control finally but that was not it... ST.KOOZ United not done yet and Ospina almost beat Seaman a few minutes later, L.McNamara on 61 minutes shot richoeted out for a corner and Michu crossed in Mensah headed it in to surely win us the tie now and L.McNamara then put any doubt away on 65 minutes with fast diagonal run into the box to knock it past the keeper, Now July Fourth can enjoy themselves as we won the ball in defence on 70 minutes with Norris getting forward to square it off for Zidane to shoot past the now demoralised ST.KOOZ keeper, Papaleo and Mensah both had a shot blocked each next before a July Fourth corner got headed away by the ST.KOOZ goalscorer Alavi, a minute later we were back on the attack and Mensah tried one from long range and caught the keeper off his line to get his brace and then there was time for Papaleo to get a late one with a flick past a defender and dropping it low into the bottom corner to cause a night of misery for the ST.KOOZ keeper Nicolas Aranda.
After a nervy and tricky first 3 quarters of this Quarter-Final, July Fourth finally got their act together for when it really mattered.
Goals: Alavi (19) Norris (39) Michu (50) Mensah (61,84) L.McNamara (64) Zidane (70) Papaleo (88) MOTM: Ramirez.
We play bordomavi (98.2) in the Semi-Finals after the defeated Ayberk 3-2 on aggregate, the other Semi-Final is between beta united (99.4) and WoonY United (99.9).

CL: BorisRager FC (Q35,2) Formation: 3W-1-3-1-2 >> 1 - 6 (AGG: 1-10) << Balkan Boyz (Q42,9) Formation: 3W-2N-2N-3W-1/4-1-2-1-2
SCORERS: S.Jovetić (12min), A.Halilović (31min.ass:I.Olić), M.Dalev (34min.ass:M.Sima) I.Olić (67min.ass:H.Salihamidžić), M.Kovačić (74&76min.ass:N.Vidić), S.Hajrović (81min.ass:E.Džeko)
SUBS: S.Kolašinac <> D.Srna H.Salihamidžić < > E.Džeko
MOTM: Ivica Olić (rate:8)
Balkan Boyz have advanced to their second consecutive Champions League semi-final after a 1-5 away win over "BorisRager FC" (10 - 1 on aggregate). Mateo Kovačić scored twice, Stevan Jovetić, Sead Hajrović, Alen Halilović and Ivica Olić had one goal each. Balkan Boyz are currently unbeaten in this year’s Champions League, and the side have impressed en route to the semifinals so far.
Manager -Ljepoje- was quite satisfied with his young team's victory over the the 2nd best team in this year CL tournament, and with the overall performance of his team as well. -Ljepoje- admitted that "'It was such a relief to reach the semi-finals since his team was eliminated in the quarter-finals last season, despite of being the better team". In a short post-game interview he said, "I think we've played quite good football, scored good goals and defended really well at the same time and created a lot of chances to score as well. If we can take that into the semi-finals then we've got a really good chance to reach the finals as well." He continued and added that, “You know, we are all eager to win, and we have probably one of the best players at this level, and the best coach as well (:p). With a little bit luck we hope to reach the finals and hopefully win our first CL trophy”
Over&Out! :cool:
I think I'm going to leave Perfect Tactics on auto-pilot after tomorrow.. A win tomorrow will almost guarantee first place and there really isn't anything else to play and after getting knocked out of the CL in the most crazy of circumstances, I'm in no mood to play this game for the rest of the season.
Breaking news from the Perfect Tactics board room!
After playing a massive role in throwing away the game and giving away a penalty which effectively knocked us out of the CL, Jonathan Eastgate our 7* MC will be sold at the end of the season, the board have decided that he is a detriment to the club's success in the long run and will not be playing at Perfect Tactics next season. Eastgate has been racking up yellow cards this season and while he is our highest scoring MC this season, he's also got the most yellow cards and is seriously affecting our free flowing football. Yesterday is an example of why he has no place in the team.
Ivor Hardy is also on the verge of getting kicked out of the squad after consistently getting yellow cards this season. While he has a good season, his dirty tackles has given away many free kicks and he has the 2nd highest yellow card count on the team. He has given away silly goals and penalties and the board have had enough of his nonsense.
After yesterday's shock CL exit, the manager is considering a revamp to the Perfect Tactics style of play. We like the attacking foootball but can it be too much for away games? From next season on, we will be trying a new playing style which should see us not get bad beats like that (or maybe not as often). It will be my own tactics and hopefully it will work as I have been experimenting lately in dead rubber matches.
The board have also agreed that an additional 500T will be available for the manager to spend next season, along with any extras that may be necessary to get a fully 7* team next season and maybe the odd 8* player. The board has high hopes for Perfect Tactics in the future and this is an investment that will reap the rewards in the long run.
