Season 40

[July Fourth]

LEAGUE ROUND 11

Rocio FC 0-2 July Fourth

Rocio FC 4-1-3N-2 - July Fourth 111.8 3N-1-3W-1-2 then 3N-4-1-2 after 63 mins

A bit of a boring encounter that saw both teams waste plenty of chances each from corners, free-kicks and one-on-one's... But after a bright first 20 mins for the home side, July Fourth soon started getting into the game with Michu threatening to score a couple of times, we soon got the breakthrough from Papaleo with a run past the defence and slide it past the keeper, 5 minutes later and it was 2-0 from a Michu corner onto Ramirez to header it in... Weve been here before and threw a 2-0 lead like this earlier in the season but Rocio had enough chances to get something out the game during the second half, breaking our defence on at least 3 occasions setting up strikers to score but the couldn't finish it and we held on for an unconvincing win. We are now 1 point ahead in the league.

Goals: Papaleo (35) Ramirez (40) MOTM: Aued.

July Fourth 7-4-0 +20 25

I had so many playmakers in my team and they're all useless! It's a stupid special ability to be honest, they score just like any other midfielder

Then you probably got a "bad" one. My playmaker has been scoring like hell. Last season he scored 21 times and assisted 3 times. This season he scored 11 times and assisted 1, declared as MoM 5 times as well. Let's see if he can beat his old record

A good day today, a 3-0 win in the CL which wasnt really needed (but netted a MoM which is always good) and a close but important 3-2 win against 4th place in the league which increased my league lead to 8 points, since 3rd place lost yesterday and 2nd place drew today.

Still, Ill see some of the tougher teams in league over the next few days, away match against a strong 5th place tomorrow and a match against 2nd place on sunday. I better stack some greens so I can go all out in CL and league on sunday.

No injuries! yay!

fml, after 8 wins I go draw, loss, draw in league. Didnt watch may away game today and ofc he makes the 1-2 in '87. But I guess I shouldnt complain, he has a ok team and he was ahead in possession. Problem is my offensive players just suck, the have like an average 6-7 rating...

Later I have a tough CL match vs an about equal team, but it doesnt really matter: rank2 is safe and I wont be able to get rank1, because he would have to draw the last match and I need to score 4-5 goals more than him (in addition to win today). Wont happen, I dont even think I can win today...

Like this Season!
First in the League with 6 Points in front of the second place and going to be first in the CL group (draw in the evening is enough to reach that goal). Best thing so far are the transfers. 2 hours a go a got this talented, super-fast-training-powerhorse for just 2 tokens. He was only 1 skillpoint from 6*:



Few days before I got another talented (also extremly fast in getting new skillpoints. something like 1,2 greens/skillpoint, or a bit better) guy. He was also close to 6* (3 skillpoints IMO), but expansive. I paid 22 tokens:



My squad is very nice. Im in my 7th season. I buyed over the seasons 120 tokens (about 12-13 Euro. 1 Euro ~ 1,28 USD) that means round about 17 tokens extra per season. only to get an idea about my budget. Squad atm:





Playing most of the time narrow diamond. Everything is nice, also the next seasons IMO.

I accidently changed my cup match time from 18.00pm to 12 at night. Looks like I'm having a late game. Suits me, my opponent is Italian and they're an hour ahead so lets hope he's asleep at 1am. Maybe him and his 5 other accounts wont try and screw me over.

I would of went for 1.30 am which was 2.30 am in Italy.

Haha I thought I was booking it for 12pm tomorrow I didn't mean to book it for the morning.

I imagine he'll be awake at 1am on the weekend but we will see if these other accounts are his or friends of his.

If I scored the away goal in a 1-1 result, should I attack or defend in the second leg?

[Zeon]

Oh, I thought we are only in round5 of CL, but its already round6

Good news for me: the group leader (4-0-1 atm) lost the last match, so I (3-1-1) 'only' need to win to get to rank1 in my group, which would be pretty important, because I would avoid a 36.6 team and play vs a 29.0 team (my team: 36.2)

will be quite hard though, because the leader has a 35.6 team and we are playing at his place. If he doesnt watch the game we have a good shot I think if he does it will be very hard, but doable with some luck^^

Either way, I'm in the KO stage and even vs the better team, its not like I cant win


edit: yes, he ****ed up. no possession bonus for him, because the stadium is almost empty

[Zeon]

lol T11 makes me sick lately

opponent ****s up, no possession bonus at home (50-50 posssion), but he is ahead 3-0 in '30 and my only world class player got 2 yellows.


edit:
nice, i lost 0-5 with 47% possession. seems like a reasonable result... not...


lol, I just realized I didnt win a single game of my last 5: DLDLL. just lol
