Season 40

[dv8r]

dont know if he will really play with this formation, I only know he like asymmetric ones

what would you do vs it?

I have a team very similar to this in my league... 4-5-1 v wasn't too effective. Let me know what you use as I play him again in 3 days

i'd fancy my chances against this with 3-5-2 flat.

Our black period seemsto have started as i smelled troll sincr yesterday's cl match. Today we won 0-5 but it's crystal clear that the engine is going against us. We shooted almost 30 times dominating vs a really poor opponent (26.5 vs our 47) and ofc all went pretty smooth until min 87 when schneider was 1 on 1 with keeper and was fouled: ofc it was just a free kick and schneider injured.

Of my total 9 injuried until now, 7 were in the last 5 mins of a match as soon as i finished the subs.

I do not mind them but having it in this kind of way pisses really me off.
Hutton stopped scoring and basing myself on nordeus frequent trolls he wont score again until the last 4 matchdays. Which could be a problem since catalunya fc is gonna be group leader with 30 goal for and 2 against in 5 matches. That annoying 3w-2dmc-2mc-1-2 seems to be safe as hell, and i need my strikers in form to unveil it.

LEAGUE ROUND 10

July Fourth 1-1 Thai Team

July Fourth 111.7 3N-1-4-2, then 3N-1-3W-1-2, then 3N-4-1-2 - Thai Team 103.1 4-1-1-3W-1 then 5-1-1-2W-1

Talk about trolling, this continues from it, another stupid draw, July Fourth really should of put this game to bed, we started the game well with winning a corner and Michu crossing it in, then continued to press and kill the game off, then brought on Miku and still could not find a way to win the game, with a bizarre change of tactics from the Thai Team by pulling off an AMC and replacing with a DC, they somehow equalised from lone striker Alava who just managed to get into space and finish it, we spent the last 35 minutes hanging on to the 1-1 rather than pushing for the win. The bizarre tactical chance worked well for the Thai Team as it seem to cut out our attacking football. He seems to have learned a lot since I thrashed him in the last 16 in the Champions League 3 seasons ago.

Advantage Mehmet.

Goals: Adams (2) Alava (55) MOTM: Eputa

Injury Report: Hogan out for 4 days.

Title Odds: July Fourth 1/2 Mehmet 9/2 Takis 9/2.

I can beat our rivals but we seem to get daft draws against mediocre teams this season.

And I dont want to play 3-5-2 flat, I dont have good enough midfielders :/

I was thinking about using your dandelion, cause I can play with my best 11 players with it. Its not that different than 3-5-2 I guess, one MC a bit more offensive, one a bit more defensive.

Seems that you and Dynamo SWAG are experiencing the same "scenario". He managed to draw yesterday as well, and are now 2nd at 23p but with a better goaldifference than the 3rd placed team with the same amounts of points. A turkish team is leading his league with 28points. Don't know how he is doing in the CL, but according to the schedule he is winning with a +1 goal margin or two everytime. Today he trashed "LS 11" in the CUP with 8-0. He wasn't present either, but the LS11 manager was.

But it seems that everybody are facing difficulties in the league this season. It's becoming challenging for every season that goes.

Another lucky win for Emre FC.. ffs how do they keep doing it! They just won 2-1 away to the 2nd strongest team in the league.

Looks like this one is going down to the wire, Emre 'Lucky' FC getting stronger and the match with us in 3 days looks like it will be an important one

[Bermudo]

Update for yesterday and today:
Yesterday I had a win in CL and a close 3-2 win in the league against a weak team. My 6th CL game wont matter now since Im 6 points ahead of place 2, so I can bring a weak/young team. The bad stuff: my scout DMC got injured for the 3rd time! I only had 5 injuries so far and 3 were by him... Either its bad luck, or hes a glassbone and I should save him for the important games.

Today was an easy win in league even without me watching. Still 6 points ahead.

2 days ago I bought my first transfer list player since day 1 of the season, a 20yo 5.8* (39 quality) MC who isnt a fast trainer, but will hit 6 stars this season anyway... and he was only 4 tokens. It was one of the few days when we get a list full of 5* players, usually we only see 3* and a few low 4* players on our server. The new guy is scoring well so far and will help a lot in this and the next season.

League, round 10 - REAL CASAMANNA 0-9 Perfect Tactics
Real Casamanna: 41.7, 4-4-2 classic
Perfect Tactics: 57.0, 3-2-2-2-1 butterfly

Another easy win here for Perfect Tactics and it was Petersen who was running the show yet again. 2 goals and 4 assists earned him the man of the match. We also used this game to test some orders. We scored in the first attack of the game, some pressing earned us a corner and Vittalone buried the header for an early goal. Nascimento made it 2-0 after breaking free of the defence and smashing a shot into the top corner. Pistov gave us a 3 goal lead from a 1 vs 1 position and 3 minutes later we had 4 goals, Petersen with the goal.

We switched to a more attacking tactic in the 2nd half and we got rewarded with more goals, Petersen's corner met by Van der Zande for a 5-0 lead. A minute later, Pistov got his 2nd goal of the game from a long range strike and substitute Suarez helped himself to a goal from Petersen's pass following a counter attack. Petersen got his second from a free kick before setting up Vittalone for his second goal and sealing a 9-0 win.

Goals: Vittalone (1', 79'), Nascimento (14'), Pistov (31', 53'), Petersen (34', 76'), Van der Zande (54'), Suarez (72')
MOTM: Petersen

Can the league be considered closed? We sit above all with 30 points, with the second one being at 20 after 10 matches.
