Season 39

[July Fourth]

Bad day yesterday, 2 injuries and I fell asleep after bringing my son to bed, thus missing the cup game (injury in minute 11, no autoreplacements, no possession bonus, 1-1 draw)

Otoh, an unnecessary draw against a weaker team in the cup isnt as bad as in league or CL group, as long as I can win the other game or draw with 2-2. League game was an unproblematic 2-0.

5+ injuries so far this season, I suspect at season 1 and 2 there is a "newbie bonus" to avoid frustration, but once the players are hooked, they get lots of injuries and need lots of red packs. Making a B-team for friendlies paid off, 2 extra red packs per day seem to be necessary at this level...

Speaking of friendlies... I'd love to see the day when Top 11 increases squad size from 22 players to 25 players to be more in-line with real world football. I don't know why they insist on 22 players though. I always find that a max 22 is not enough to work with.

25 players per squad = more transfers = more tokens for nordeus.

Dude, what's your deal? 66T + 23M for a 22yr old?

Naah, just kidding! But I would PT him until he reached world class (7*) and then take it easy for a while. The beginning of next season isn´t far away you know, there will be better ones on next lvl

I just wanted to replace Bush because Bush will be done after this season as its impossible for him to reach Scout level this season, but its only a sub so...I don't know, maybe youre right, he'll replace Varane as well

TRIFYLLARA 0-6 July Fourth League Round 7
TRIFYLLARA 91.6 3W-3N-1-3 - July Fourth 107.5 3N-1-3W-1-2 (Moved to 3N-1-1-3W-2 last 20 minutes)

We have company at the top of the table from a active manager in HONDA 2 with both of us on 16 points before today, so a win was important for us here. Our opponents here played a formation I have never seen before and it was too aggressive and easily opened up for counter attacks, We got off to a slow start but a goal from knowhere from Mensah got us up and running in this game on 16 minutes, Miku had a fantastic game creating a chance for Ramirez to knock it in off the post, Hogan made a couple of dramatic challenges at the end of the first half to keep it 2-0 to us, with the second half in play the home side were getting a few chances before we went attacking by bringing Zidane on in the second half Michu got in the clear and took it past the keeper and finished it before Miku did the same 4 minutes later, Miku then assisted Michu with a short pass and Michu struck it in off the bar, L.McNamara dribbled his way past a defender and scored our 6th and also could of had a brace a minute later but it was saved.

Goals: Mensah (16) Ramirez (26) Michu (71,77) Miku (75) L.McNamara (84) MOTM: Hogan.

League Round 7

Liverpool FC Vs Warrington FC

Nervy start to this one today as Warrington faced a team with 10 less quality than themselves and initial fears were worsened when on 8 minutes LFC scored a stormer of a free kick in the eighth minute. After the initial shock of going a goal down Warrington dusted themselves down and dominated the rest of the match to end the game with a 1-5 win.

The day was made even better when the league leaders Git FC, fell to their first defeat of the campaign leaving Warrington top of the league on goal difference from C.C Kryptonia.

Champions League, round 4 - Perfect Tactics 4-0 Hey Bro Munmun
Perfect Tactics: 51.6, 4-5-1v (30' butterfly)
Hey Bro Munmun: 35.1, 4-1-3W-1-1

We have progressed to the next round of the CL with a win over Hey Bro Munmun. We started off slowly, the 4-5-1 v not performing well against the 4-1-3W-1-1 so we switched to the butterfly and immediately we got a goal. Mata broke free of the defence and rolled the ball to Petersen for an easy goal. We didn't seem to care until the 73rd minute when Blomqvist knocked in a long range strike and then Vittalone's header from a corner making it 3-0. Mata topped things off with a solo effort from the counter attack, making it 4-0 and securing our place in the next round as group winners.

Goals: Petersen (33'), Blomqvist (73'), Vittalone (77'), Mata (82')
MOTM: Mata
