Season 40

Champion's League, Match 2

Boomskadi FC 0 - 5 New Team.

Another match which proved how much the Narrow Diamond is radicated into our playstyle. We started, against his Narrow Diamond, with a 3-1-4-2 which intended to challenge the sides and let us pass easily. But since the start we were alwais blocked and our side players didn't apparently get the ball. The few chanches we had went to oblivion missing. In the second half we got out our reserves (Tenma, Stein, Lenders) for the pros Schneider, Denver, and Denton, equalizing the opponent's module (back to ours, let's say). Five minutes needed for Becker to shoot a missile and give us the lead (50'), followed by Schneider's 2-0 (67'). As Schneider approached the field Hutton felt immediatly less conflict (more proof that same SA on same zone = not good) and once the 1vs1 Lenders left the field the captain's 1vs1 awakened: after the 0-3 signed by Ross (73'), Hutton scored another double (83', 89').

Scorers: T.Becker, K.H.Schneider, J.Ross, O.Hutton (2).
MoM: O.Hutton (9), New Team.

Aftertoughts:

-We depend on Narrow Diamond.
-Our setup seems to work with short passes better than last seasons.
-Our Forwards were improved equally in Physical and Attack stats and that makes them more visible during the matches.
-Oliver Hutton is going for the golden ball this season apparently: 4 matches, 9 goals, 4 assists, 4 MoM, AVG score 9 : New Team's Core, as alwais.

Of course, you saw that It worked for me last season and now you are "stealing" my formation as well... Good job! Nah, just kidding!

This is the "thing" I noticed as well last season. Sticking to one (or two formations) seems to be the best choice. Also, not changing the style of tackling (easy-normal and hard) seems to be a thing best "left as it is" and avoid to many injuries. And "too much change in too short a period of time" seems to be bad in T11, while small improvements and standardization are the best way to go.

Does your newly signed players get good ratings? Saw also that you are almost finished with the PT, did it go well and how many boosters did you "burn"?

The MC Romer goes from8 to 9 atm, 6 goals already on 6 matches, his FK SA helps but half of them were on action.
The DC/DL Bergara scored 7 each time he pleayed DL and 8 on DC up to now.

Since new contract Price took two straight 6. Had i noticed before the expiring, prolly cup wouldn't be a mess despite the unfortunate connection issues.

Not bad! Bergara could be a nice piece of yours, especially since he is a DC/DL, maybe ad a SA on him as well (?)... I haven't had any luck with players that preserves the FK SA, so I can't say any good about them. But if he scores 2/3 times then he is good, otherwise bad as my former MC that I sold last season.

Did you play with win bonus in the CUP? I always trigger it to max o next to maximum. Does the trick =)

Yes but i had. Troubles on connection in first cup leg (see my unfortunate adventure reported back here) and couldn t either make the subs or react to his module change. During my presence we were having lotsa more possession pressure and chanches. He practically scored 3 of 4 goals from range with my keeper being nonexistent (rated 4). Would i have noticed his contract expiring and have been able to fully follow the match it surely wouldnt have ended with a loss, maybe even a win away was possible after all. He is Q 52 now so i ll see later how it goes.

In League we struggled a bit winning 3-0 against a super wierd formation (4-DML-2MC-AMC-AMR-ST), and only when Hutton got in we passed twice with him and becker right at the end rounding the result to 3-0 and being MOM over Hutton.
