I give shadow striker a try as well.
http://i39.tinypic.com/121xsg5.png
GREAT... I'm really pissed off... When I consider signing the youth player, It turns out he plays a position I didn't need. A DMR/MR... never going to get in the team I'm afraid while O'Sullivan is around. I needed a MC or DC or DR more than anything else.
Oh yeah and for scouts, Yup a decent one finally appeared... Oh and guess what? He's a striker. I don't need a striker either...
My season just got worse.
Yeh apart from the moaning i like him lol. Hes the same 80 tokes a year kind of manager i am. Think his leagues are harder than mine though tbh! He has good ideas and decent perspective but as you say, the game is how it is!
Id be more tempted to spend more on tokens if i needed it. Right now what ive got is fine for the league and champs league but not for the cup, so id be buying players to win the cup and wouldnt see a great return for it!
On that note, round 2 of the cup today, away leg. Opponents slightly worse rating over all but with scouts and 1* subs so ill go 3(W)-2 dmc-3(W)-1-1 try sneak an away win or score draw hopefully :) good luck today people!
League, round 2 - Elijah FC 0-7 Perfect Tactics
Elijah FC: 32.5, 4-2-2-2 hex
Perfect Tactics: 55.7, 4-5-1 v
This is our biggest win of the season and it was always going to be one way traffic as our opponents were abandoned. In the 8th minute of the game Hechalar was shown a straight red card for a badly timed tackle and Petersen made the most out of the free kick like he has done over many seasons. It was soon 2-0 when Blomqvist's pass found Silly who steered the ball past the goalkeeper for his 2nd goal in 2 games, quite a promising future for the youngster. Nascimento made it 3-0 from a 1 v 1 position before setting up Hardy for his first goal of the season. Nacsimento was playing very well and he added another in the 2nd half from long range. Petersen got his 2nd goal from a free kick for 6-0 and then a late Vittalone goal from a corner gave us a huge win taking us up into first place.
Goals: Petersen (8', 57'), Silly (19'), Nascimento (23', 50'), Hardy (28'), Vittalone (82')
Sent off: Hechalar (8')
MOTM: Nascimento
I know that feel man :/
In a training session we had this morning both of our DC/DR's, 1 is a promising youngster the other is a 26 y/o with defensive wall s/a..I have him since I began playing t11 got injured! :| I have to put a reserve DC as a DR now..and to put my DC/DMC w/ playmaker as dc, argh..i got ~10 reds but they can't help much
LOL! Yuup! :p But at the same time, you always find & need that kind of people. It would be awkward if everybody just praised and said "Well, sh*t happens but it's all fine"... Nothing and no game is "perfect", all of them have their flaws. I'´ve been playing an another game (ModerWar) for 3 years now and even that game isn't spotless, has it flaws like all other.
I spend Token on this game only "beacuse" I choose to. You know, instead of going out (drinking, partying and all that crap) I rather throw my money in a game that gives me pleasure and that I enjoy playing. Also, I could play FIFA 13 on my PS3 but it isn't the same :D
Good luck in the CUP! Go all in and attack your opponent on every flank and never play normal/defense. And you never know, you could make it through as I did last season. Just believe you can pull it of. :)
Hah, did you found a youngster at the TM or finally get your U21 player? :D ... I never buy or sign a U21, just taking the free one and placing him on the TM.
Haha, a ST? That's bad luck mate! Does he have a SA? Hmm, I feel for you. Been there myself (season 3). What will you do now, wait until it refreshes or try your luck at the TM?
Just had Džeko sent off for a deliberate handball in the league game against FC Kula! But hey, we won with 1-3 away:p
Yeah I got young player 4*102 21T but he played MR/DMR and I didn't need that, I wanted a DEFENDER or a MC more than anything else, most of the players in the TM are 25+ no youngsters except for 1 young player that had a low market value so he is a crap trainer.
The scout striker is 25 year old 6*114 1v1 SA. but I don't need a striker yet for at least 2 more seasons. Be L20 when I start to look for a new ST when Papaleo has declined. Papaleo is 28 now and is 7*115 but soon will lose the race against time. I'm short on defence and I've only got 2 MC's that are both high-end 5* now. My main ML/AML is high-end 5* now as well and I'm struggling to find good quality players this season on the market, I can't imagine what it will be next season, because every season I promote there will be less teams above me on my server to sell to me.
Very true and hes more tolerable than others, his moans are at least for the good of the game for everyone rather than the "i have better team, why dont i win" guys. Also regards my game, hes not that much better on field and hes playing narrow diamond, why not attack him hard down the flanks? Ive enough in the middle and defensively to keep his attack quiet! Ill let u know how it goes, thanks :)
My scoutlist update sucked again.. 2 decent 22 year olds, but one is a DC and the other A DC/DMC, and I already bought a DC/DMC scout at the beginning of the season, and I already had a 19 yo DC from last seasons youth and a 20 year old DC/DMC so buying the scout would mean benching a young, growing player.
Looking at my league competition, I might as well save the 50 tokens for next season, I just hope I dont get lazy farming offers just because I got a stack of tokens.
What Level are you playing at now?
Lvl 2.
What are your ambitions?
Gonna do my best to top the League (two wins in first two rounds) and grab the CL trophy. Shame I tied the first CL game against a weaker opposition though.Dang it... As for the Cup -- well, idk, mostly neglecting it, since the schedule is busy enough I've got to rest some of my key players.
How many Tokens you got?
Almost none! :cool:
How much Money you got?
Slightly over 500K. Been busy on the transfer market as of late...
Who you buying/selling?
I've bought a 3* AML (and extremely happy about the guy btw), a 5* DR and DC. Contemplating buyig a good striker right now and maaaaybe will think about wingers and changing the scheme just for the hell of it... not sure yet. My bench is not that impressive, I'm not planning on selling anybody in the nearest future. Here's my team, what do you guys say?
Attachment 6291
Been a busy 24 hours or so for Rhondda Rovers. Here are the highlights since the second leg of the preliminary cup game that I won 6-2 on aggregate.
Won 3-0 away in my first league game against PSM KAKASSAR with Arianto (2) and Ha (1, pen) the scorers. My youth ML got injured in his first appearance, so happy days, will be hoping to flog him soon.
Drew 0-0 in the CL against Chelskicherries despite being all over them. Gussago got injured but was instantly healed afterwards.
Won 3-2 away in a hard fought game against AC LaPili with Sutcu (1) and Steigelmann (2) the scorers, but was very close to conceding a late equaliser as they were one on one with my keeper. Thankfully he shot wide.
Steigelmann has gone drastically downhill for some bizarre reason, mainly getting 5's when he was getting 7's and 8's before. Even with two goals today, he only got a 6.
Ormeno has been flagged due to general crapness and that a 22yo Q54 MR with Dribbler SA has appeared on my scout list. Will await the end of my negotiations before signing him up tonight.
Cup game at 5.16pm today.
That's your update.
Perfect Tactics have sold Santi Cazorla after failing to get into the first team squad for the last few matches. He has been a backup for 3 seasons playing as a AML/AMC/AMR player and he has contributed a fair bit, however his partnership with Petersen was never a good one and they didn't play well together. Now at 5*, we won't be needing him now that Mata and Nascimento can play at AML
Season stats:
Season 1- Appearances: 31, Goals: 20, Assists 4
Season 2- Appearances: 21, Goals: 9, Assists: 5
Season 3- Appearances: 8, Goals: 2, Assists: 5
Total
Appearances: 60, Goals: 31, Assists 14
We've got 3 free slots for some mid season bargain buys. Not bothered with the TL yet but as suspensions grow, I may need to.
This is also Suarez's last season at the club... Legend status maybe? 6 seasons since level 2 although served as a backup for last season and this season. He was one of the very few who joined the 8* club, the other is Petersen and Bogdany (who is also leaving next season)
9* CLUB
Alex Zidane L13
Stacey Papaleo (Jr.) L13 and L15
Michu L16
Miku L16,L17 and will return back to 9* in L18
8* CLUB
Ludek Novotny L13
Roy Holvoet L13
Ivor Hardy L17
Kevin Mensah L13 and L15
L.McNamara L13 and L15
P.McNamara L13
R.McNamara L13
Ramirez, O'Sullivan and Hogan Look likely to join the 8* club this season now due to the poor transfer market, scout and our youth player being not what we needed.
Today, in CUP ! I use 3-5-2 formation...

And once again, we get "lucky" :rolleyes:..... Was up against this Russian guy "Malkanowich", but I bet him (like all others).... The TM was jacked with 5* (around 100-150players) and there was 3x18yr olds, but in position that we already have or need.
Anyway, since we already have 3x GK (Handanovic:6/7*, Pletikosa6* and now Begovic5/6*), I will just focus and PT Begović for the entire season and leave Handanović in the goal and Pletikosa as a backup. My goal is to PT Begović to 8*. This way, I will have Begović,Jovetić,Vranješ, Cana,Lulić, and Džeko as 8* this season and probably next season as well since I will NOT PT my currently 6* and 7* (rather buy a scout or two, near -9).
This is also our last buy for this season. We have now 14,8M on the account and that will do just fine for all the expenses + stadium upgrade. Have 200T + 200 green boosters on the account (but will probably need more boosters). :rolleyes:

And this was the player that I purchased at 03.11 a clock from Mr.Scout, Adem Ljajić.... He will play all CUP + CL games, but Halilović + Cana the league games + subs in the CUP/CL tournaments.

Thats okay I would say, I'd go to KO R28 and a bit further for a 18 year old 5* 4/9 player thats a GK thats got the 1v1 stopper ability.
Wow... with all these 8* players at Balkan Boyz... Could there be a possiblity we may see a 9* player at Balkan Boyz one day? Jovetic maybe?
RR Cup, 2nd round 1st leg - Perfect Tactics 3-0 Xezer Lenkaran
Perfect Tactics: 56.1, 4-5-1 v style
Xezer Lenkaran: 50.4, 5-2-1-2 X style
This was a game we had to win to avoid getting an upset in this tie. We played well for the whole game and defended when we needed to. Our opponents had a brick wall of 5 defenders and we were struggling to break them down as 2 of our goals came from corners. We took the lead through that man again.. Gaylord Silly silencing his critics with his 3rd consecutive goal. We couldn't find a way through and it looked like it was going to stay 1-0 but 2 quick goals in 3 minutes killed off the game and sends us into the 2nd leg in a very comfortable position. Vittalone scored from a corner and Nascimento rounded it off with a solo effort.
Goals: Silly (27'), Vittalone (64'), Nascimento (67')
MOTM: Nascimento
Good to see Silly lording it over the opposition, heh heh!
Aha, then it's kinda useless. The U21 academy hasn't given me anything or anyone that I really was looking after. Don't bother to upgrade it either (my last choice).
I see, your in a tight spot! It's almost the same on the new servers, the only players you can get and that are good 5* are the server generated players. Then we have the players that people want's to get rid off, but that nobody more or less want's (if it isn't a manager with a low Q-team).
But it's kinda strange that there aren't any server generated 5* players on your server. This is the 4th time in a row they pop-up on my server. Maybe it's because the "demands" are higher and more and more managers are buying Tokens then before (or on the old servers). I also see more and more managers willing to enter bid wars then last season. Then mostly of the managers at my server are at their mid-age (+30yr).
I seriously hope you find something good, wouldn't be fair against you and all the more experienced players. :confused:
RAGE QUIT!!!
I just gone out with a 1-3 loss in a Cup match!!! They are playing on 4-2-2-1-1 Eiffel Tower formation. While I do this because I asked for a tactics and no one seems to even care about me!!! Why are you leaving me alone!!!
BTW. I'm still in cup boycott mode...
Another news is that I just sold JUSTIN BIEBER!!!
https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.n...70115858_n.jpg
Well yeah, first I was quite unsure if I really needed him since I already had 2 GK's. But then I was checking both of them up, and both are currently 6* (Handanović has 21 unsigned SKP, so his near a 7*).. So it became clearly that I needed another one, especially since he is just 18yr old and Handanović is 23yr resp. Pletikosa at 25yr... Also, I more or likely "copy-pasted" Dynamo SWAG's "tacitcs". He bought Roman Bürki when he was 18yr old and PT:ed him to 8* (season in, season out). :p
I really hope so! Jovetić could be a 9* by the end of the season if he plays all 3 compet. games. But let's see, if I get some greenies left-over, why not? :rolleyes:
beat my opponent 1-2 away in cup today was 5 points QT higher and had even someone supporting him :D
felt good
A last post before I head off :D.... Just watched D.S game in the CUP and I was a little bit surprised that he left out two of his best strikers (Bale and Zuber). He got a 3-3 draw, but a win is way better to prefer.
Also, early on today he lost a league game against Burkan FC with 1 - 0.

Let me tell you, It's like hell trying to PT a player from 8* to 9* you need something like 4 greens for every skill point, A 8* player would only get 15-20 skill points through natural growth in a season and many MOTM awards are important for a high quality players development.
Once you get a 9* player... (or 2) It's a great feeling.
Just lost 1-0 away in the Cup to a seemingly inactive LVL7 team. Frustration, irritation and probably a bit of constipation for the team, fans and management. Doesn't look like I'll be heading to Old Trafford for that job just yet.
