I'll be surprised when I don't win league. I've won 3 in 3 tries.*
I placed 2nd in my only real Champions League attempt.**
My Cup history is as follows:
Level 2 in a level 9 Cup: Qualifying Stage.
Level 3 in a Level 9 Cup: Playoff Stage
Level 4 in a Level 10 Cup: Qualifying Stage
Level 4 in a Level 8 Cup (New format): 3rd
I got bounced this year in the Playoff stage (Level 5, Level 8? Cup) lost on away goals, 2-2 agg. I was traveling at the time and unable to set lineups and tactics.
*Season 1 league: There were only 5 games left when i joined, so I don't count it.
*Season 4 league, I sandbagged - deliberately lost (it was actually hard to stay out of the top 7) to try and get a better cup draw (wasted effort, since they introduced the new Cup format the next season)
** Season 4 CL: I was traveling and unable to set my formations and tactics, eliminated in Top 16
I am not and never will be a token buyer.
~^~*~^~ My opinions are best when taken with a grain of salt. No iodine added. ~^~*~^~
I struggled to get many 4 or 5 stars at Level 2 so imagine how bad I was lol
I'm at level 5 and won both the league (2) that the champions (1) the cup but never once managed to reach the quarter but now I'm 2 seasons that I am always eliminated in the first round.
The problem is also, its really tough signing players in the first week or so, so I don't have time to build a stronger squad.
8 Cups no champions league! wow... Unlucky pal, if you're good enough for the cup, you'll get there eventually.
