4-4-2 normally.

Champions League results are all in now and Sami FC have also been knocked out after a 3-2 win (3-4 agg), a bit too much for them to do after veritas grabbed 2 away goals in the 1st half, and our opponents are Equimetal SAD who won 4-1 tonight after being a goal down and needed to score at least twice to qualify, they were the group of death winners and we have the home leg against them first, they are a 'former scout team' 5*/6* and ALL off their players have SA and there is a few fake 'real name' players in there too. This will undoubtably be a tough tie for us as their overall quality is about the same as FC Seti. A good win at home with a clean sheet (like 2-0 or 3-0) will be very handy for us to take into the second leg if we can, we wouldn't want a 0-0 draw like we got at the same stage this time last season when we played ST.KOOZ United.

FC Kneipenkick update:
Since another 5 match days are over here is a new FCK update. In the league everything runs fine. With Merkurial and Real Rabby we have already beaten 2 top sides twice and extended our lead:


In the CL round of 16 we had some problems in the first leg at Maliqi FC and won very close 2-1. The whole club went very nervous into the returning leg, but Maliqis tactics (4-1-3-2) suited us today very well and FC Kneipenkick won 4-0 with good old 4-4-2.

Tuesday. Day 17.

LEAGUE: Match 15. KUKULA FC (65.3) v LONDON CITY (73.4)

Result: KUKULA 0-4 LONDON
Goals: Zola 29, Robins 31, Webo 50, Whyte 60
M.o.M: Andreas Costa

We strolled to a comfortable win in Georgia, with the goals spread evenly into each half. Yet another pinpoint Andreas Costa corner, led to Adam Zola powering in the opening goal. Inside three minutes, Percy Robins added a second, after a solo run. Pierre Webo made himself some space before firing home our third, and finally, defender Jeremiah Whyte forced the ball home after a through pass from Robins. Only downside to the match, was a 73rd minute injury to Costa, who will now be missing for 4 days.

OTHER LEAGUE RESULTS:
Phetchana 0-5 Real, Yakuza 2-1 Olympiakos, Lalas 0-0 Minh, Alcudia 4-0 Legends, Danis 1-2 Tongfang, Shileno 3-2 Jeleznik.


CHAMPIONS LEAGUE: Last 16, second leg. LONDON CITY (73.4) v FENERBAHCE SK (72.6)

Result: LONDON 2-2 FENERBAHCE
Goals: Pasarikovski 41, Duggan 65, Pasarikovski 66, Robins 68
M.o.M: Percy Robins

As expected, this was a tough close match, with both sides going out at one stage or another. Although we started with a 1-0 lead from the first, away leg, we never felt comfortable at any time. Fenerbahce had centre midfielder sent off at 27 minutes, after receiving two yellow cards in the space of two minutes. Just before the break, Suad Pasarikovski scored to level the tie on aggregate. A crazy spell of scoring resulted in three goals in three minutes, just after the hour. Terry Duggan scored to level on the night and put us back in front in the tie. A minute later, Pasarikovski scored his second, to now put the tie level again, but Fenerbahce were now ahead on away goals. Fortunately, Percy Robins managed to find the net for our second equaliser on the night, and we then held on to go through, 3-2 on aggregate. Having already had a player dismissed, we were surprised that our opponents did not substitute an injured player on 55 minutes. We effectively played against nine men for the last 35 minutes.


TEAM TALK:

With our win today, and Minh Chi's goalless draw, we are now top of the table, one point ahead of Alcudia and two ahead of Minh. Tomorrow we play at home to Shileno, who on paper are the best quality team in the league, despite the fact that they lay 4th, eight points behind us. We have already beaten them at their place, but we are not counting our chickens.

In the CL, after our close win on aggregate tonight, we await to see who we will meet in the quarter-finals. It looks like it may well be a team from Brazil.

CL, Top 16, Second Leg



New Team passes on 15-0 aggregate.

As we thought in my last post, this time engine didn't bother us despite the opponent being on same level of our League's one. New Team was pretty much fired up thus giving birth to our best result of all time in Champion's League, and overall best season's aswell. We opted for an offensive setup (which we might start adopting instead of our set normal mentality) with a never used before module which seemed to bring up our true terrific potential. Romer found soon enough the overlapping Shirou which gave us the lead (2'), then it was Schneider's time to dispatch assists like peanuts first letting Becker go through on 2-0 (15') then serving a perfect assist to Ivor Hardy which didn't fail the 3-0 (19'). Le Blanc made it 4-0 before halftime with a missile from range (41'). We then got Hardy out for Lenders adding a 3rd forward in our setup, and defenetly crushing our opponent's bones: Becker made another one from 30 mts (47') and J.Romer doubled his score few after (50') taking us on 6-0. Our star MC served then Hutton who found again the goal after two matches (57') before going out for Diamond keeping up the same module. Lenders served Le Blanc for the 8-0 (67') and Schneider parred his assists with 2 straight goals (73', 83'). At this point engine decided Hutton to injure (5 days) but we finished up going forward with F.Shirou converting the Free Kick.

Scorers: F.Shirou (2), K.H.Schneider (2), J.Romer (2), P.Le Blanc (2), O.Hutton, I.Hardy, T.Becker.
MoM: K.H.Schneider (9), New Team.

We are now waiting the last result of the Legs, and there are already several shocking matches to be reported. Hutton injured was immediatly recovered and a little stop might have been good to change his late attitude of failing too many occasions.
We also are happy to announce that Mark Lenders has reached 7* completing the other two forward's quality overall. Tenma Matsukase will soon join them as his growth doesn't seem to have stopped since the 6th star. We will try take Hutton on 8* if we spare greens (currently Q53,4).

Our and your Italian mate didn't make it through, they got beat up by the former league winner "FC Beauteville". Lost the 1th leg with 3 - 2 and the 2nd with 0-1. I was left surprised since he was one of the "better" teams that I thought would make it through and perhaps end up playing the finals. But the most interesting games will be between Besiktas - Trazbonspor, and FC Beauteville - Taner GS in the quarters. 3 Turkish teams and 1 english left. We could get a all turkish semi-final as well if Besiktas/Trazbonspor and Taner GS makes it through.... This will be fun to follow&watch

Surprisingly, yes! As I have watched most games I've played, and my opponent has been watching too. I do think some of them are clueless though, like today, I beat the team in second 7-0 ... away! and the guy was watching! He didn't make one change all match. I subbed 3, had to really with the 2 injuries. Now, admittedly, I have 4 scout players in, but I have some of my other original players trained up almost as good. I am constantly training and buying/selling, always strengthening my squad - if the others aren't doing same, well, what can I do only hammer the bejaysis out of them? I'm building strong for the higher levels, as I know all players get docked a star when they go up and things get a lot tougher. I would prefer more of a challenge though.

See what did happen when I messed with my formation and wasn't there to make changes? draw against one of the weaker sides in the league. Gots to keep at it, no matter how weak the opposition.

As regards to the scout players... To be honest you don't really need all these scouts at the lower levels until you reach around L10+ when you start to face more active managers and better teams rather than mostly inactives and 2* teams, the only time I would recommend buying lots of scout players in the lower levels of the game is if you come up against a scout buyer, normally full 5* is more than sufficient to win trophies in the lower leagues. A lot active of managers in the lower levels will have rubbish teams because they won't know exactly how t11 works and may struggle to get to grips with how exactly the auction system works when its quite simple in all honesty.
