Well i won with 5-0 so still change to defend my title in the CL back to back
Good luck, I have done back to back before, and they were my only 2 Champions Leagues, I had a perfect run the first one so 13-0-0 and then 12-1-0 the second time, it was way harder then it looks with my record, The part where I had to retain my trophy was very difficult, I had so many hard opponents on the way during that second campaign, I drew 3-3 in the round of 16 in the first leg and I was nearly eliminated if it wasn’t for a 90th minute winner from my DC, even though I won the rest of my games, it was so difficult, especially the final, the last 5 games of that competition were 2-1, 0-8, 0-3, 3-0, 1-0. The my opponent in the Final where I was to retain it had a 7 star goalkeeper with a special ability and it wasn’t until the 88th minute, we broke the deadlock and won. It was way tougher the second time round, I had 3 even opponents in the group stage and got through that and then the path to retaining the trophy was tough as I said above, I hope you manage it but it won’t be easy.Quote:

Some others won 4 cups in a row and 5 in a row on the lower levels, so if you have the resources to do it, give it a go.
Sorry for any typos as I am typing really quickly and I am on mobile.

Just won 3-0 in both of my games today.
The 1st place still keeps the 1 point lead.I still have 5 points advantage in the goal difference.
https://i.ibb.co/sRkjs9Q/83201599-50...75933952-n.png
So my best player missed a penalty, scored a free kick and after that he got injured.
I just don t understand what s up with missing penalties/ free kicks almost constantly.
they might tweak my player...
What s funny is that i have the game against the 1st place in 3 days, and tomorrow s game is also difficult.
Can t take a break already from this...
I have the same record as the first place guy, but I have a much stronger lead, I will be a massive bottle job if I let this slip, I never have with such a huge point advantage.Quote:

5 wins out of 6 is 6% lower than my average seasonal home win rate of 89%, (to be fair overall in the entire season it is 91% but my away record is still perfect 100%)
I have scored 15 of my goals at home and 38 away and I conceded all of my goals at home in the league, I actually want to lose away in the league once to level this out. Only that one loss I am hoping for and then no more [emoji14].
I made a record today (well joint) I have 22 wins out of 23 so far and that is my current record, I have a league match tomorrow where that can be broken since I drew Round 24 of that season. I am looking forward to the cup semi final first leg tomorrow.
Also I have by far the most goals in the league yet, I don’t have the top scorer, my team must have a few good scorers obviously.

Congratulations, Max. You can t slip with that lead, especially you have one of the strongest teams in the league if not the strongest.
Start saving resources for the next season already. The double is yours.
And thanks for supporting me in my league game.
You are welcome, today I am starting to gather resources up for next season. I procrastinate a lot so today I will get a start on that.Quote:

I must be making the worst decisions ever. No wins over teams that are comparable to mine yet. Lost 0-5 at home to the only title contender two weeks ago. Lost all four games I tried in the Lunar challenge thingy... I don't get it. It's not like I am not mixing it up and making changes during the match if it's not working well. Nothing is going my way...
At least in the past it felt like the matches were 50/50 if I run into my equal as they should be, now I feel like I have to be labeled the favorite to win a match. FFS...
Just came back from a 3-0 loss in CL, by winning 4-0 where I scored the 4th goal at 86min. I lost two finals in the last two season, now the quest continues.
Already eliminated from Cup in QF, had won it last season.
This season’s league has the toughest draw so far: there are 8 active, high quality teams (including me), all of which I have been matched and struggled against over the past seasons. The leader I have never been able to beat, and he is still the strongest. I am 6th now, hopefully I will manage to qualify for CL next year.
@ Max
Awesome stuff. Congrats mate. Btw your mailbox is full. My reply couldn't go through.
Ok, that’s fine and thank you as wellQuote:

Just won the first semi in the cup 5-1, solooks like my first cup final.
Still only 3 points ahead in the league on #2, and i think like 12 points on #3.. so its a run in the league.. i won all games there and the #2 only lost against me.
I guess i can give my update on my 2nd and final account i m playing right now.
It s a level 2 account which won the league last season.
I kept my best player and sold the rest. Right now my AVQ is 83.9% and i have a easy league, easy cup and rather easy CL with a 78% opponent.
I should win the quad this season.
I also have to mention i dont watch my games, rather the most important ones.
Have watched 5-6 days out of 20 for ads, so it s mainly a honest work.
Calculated that i will keep 4 players this season and my AVQ for the next season will be 50 something.
Curious to see what opponents i will get.
Also have to mention i have 70 Tokens, so not much...
I might only win an average of 1-2 trophies a season, I am happy with that as I only have a small amount of tokens like 5-14 on me at any given time, I won 3 trophies 2 seasons in a row with a highly limited budget 2 comps and a super cup, I can only really get my team at highest to only 103% but that is only if I am highly active, it is only really 99-100%.Quote:

1 has a platinum association, 1 has a gold 2 association ( so 100 vs 30 T every season).
So yeah, it is quite a challenge to manage such a smallish club, but my opponents don t seem to give me trouble so far.
But the biggest difference in my opinion is the training level, one has 23 and the other 60. Big difference.
The other title contender that beat me two weeks ago at my stadium 0-5, I got him now, late 1-2 victory. Revenge is sweet.
Would have been such a tight race if he won today as we would have been level on points with a close goal difference, but now I am six points clear. 13 consecutive league wins at the moment, can't picture myself losing the league now.
I guess training some of the players will be my priority for the remaining ten days, and hopefully my best performer finishes as top goalscorer again for another finishing boost, two goals behind at the moment. Champions League was a huge flop from me, I will have to "study" the game more, because some of these disappointing results can't be just a result of T11 trolling.
Well you did say this about 2 weeks ago.Quote:

Anyway, 33-4-0 last season, but I began this one with a loss in the first cup round at home to a team 30% worse than mine. My goalkeeper, defender, right back, two wingers and two strikers were all on fire. But he had five 2 star players who easily handled it all and beat me 0-1 at my stadium. Makes sense :D
The question is, did I just happen to dodge a bullet by avoiding the troll result in some hugely important game, or are Nordeus giving me the subtle "You've had your one month of fun, now you suffer” message”
Well I think Nordeus certainly gave you the "You've had your one month of fun, now you suffer” message, because you said you were a flop in the CL.
Hopefully you win the league and the cup if you are still in it.

We got an OK 7-1 win vs inferior opposition but as usual , I find something to complain about, I am very disappointed we conceded that goal we have conceded every single one of our goals at home and not away, 8 in 7 is a very poor defensive record where usually we conceded 3! I might get rid of my defenders that like away games. We have won them all by t we concede at home and lose our games at home, (typical troll eleven) I’m expecting 6 clean sheets at home from the last 6 and it better be like that, if not 5 clean sheets with one goal conceded I might let slide.
At least we have our cup semi final and 2nd place slipped up again giving us a 10 point lead.

Won 6-0 in the cup semis and i m on to the finals against a almost even opponent.
Won 6-0 as well in the league against the current 8th place, thought it will be tougher, suazo scoring a hattrick and currently leading the goalscoring charts.
The league stayed the same, 1st place 45 points, me 44 points and 3rd place 41 points.
I am leading the goal difference with 10 goals over 1st and 19 over 2nd. So in a case of a tie i should easily won it.
In 2 days i am playing the game of the season, i hope that in tomorrow s game they don t give my suazo a yellow again thus making him miss the game.
Attachment 131893
The golden boot is a very close battle. Hopefully suazo will win it again.
I think that Friday s game is the decider against the 1st place, the guy in the 3rd can t make me slip again.
I won t allow him !
I have only lost once in the league which was a typical troll 0-3 loss, when the servers weren’t working, (that was a sad excuse of a match) since then I have 23 wins from 24 CONCEDING all of my goals at home in the league and 9 out of 14 at home, this sounds stupid but I want a a loss away in the league so then there is an even record for home and away and then I would leave it at that, If I win the rest of my league games, which is should, I will match my record of 75 points in the league.Quote:

Just a thought. Usually have this same thought process about a CL/Cup semi final 2nd leg.Quote:

Yes, it’s very obvious that the top scorer reward is on the balance as things stand, but in the bigger picture, having the ability to field the strongest line-up to win against the league leader for the title sounds more crucial.
Not trying to jinx it, what if your top striker scores a hat-trick to head the top scorer comfortably then gets a yellow card to make life difficult against the league leader?
Both you and the league leader are within my friend list, so I’ll watch your match on Friday as a neutral. :cool:
I haven t seen a back to back yellow card for an attacker in any competition as far as i am concerned.
It s also an easy game, so conceding a yellow is less possible , an easy opponent bring me the chance to score couple of goals for suazo. I will take that risk.
Don t worry about your friend, he will get sinked in 3rd place after i m done with him.
I will be cheering for you, hopefully he gets humiliated at your home ground, he will still be in second if you beat unless he drops points tomorrow. I have an unassailable 10 point lead now [emoji57]Quote:

Here is the result of our cup semi final first leg, We won 2-3, great win, we have the 3 away goals and it puts us in a decent position for the final. We need to put in a good performance at home to get through. Also the interesting thing is, I conceded my 500th and 501st goal as a TE manager goal as a TE Manager, I also got my 3131st goal. (All out of 929 matches)
24 wins out of 25 so far this season (a new record for me)
Super Dunk (my TE player) scored the first goal

I was knocked out of the cup a few days ago. But I won't bother with that competition much going forward. Won it once, that's enough to satisfy me there for a long time.Quote:

The legague is this season again between me and 1 other team.... i won all games until now and he lost 1 game onlybagainst me.. #3 is already 14 points below me..
So a hard game, and still on schedules for all the titles
Won 7-0 in the league against the easy guy, suazo scoring a hattrick, yet he is still tied on goal scoring boot with 1st place player.
In CL my game is placed at 3AM, probably would put my clock alarm since the game is away.
Btw the 3rd place drew today and bottled the league. Hopefully won t give it all against me and give the 1st place a easy win.
Tomorrow is the decider of the league. The only outcome I need is the win or the league is lost. Shall see what happens.
Anyone who wants to support me my game is 24 hours from now.
I will be there as I mentioned about 2 weeks ago.Quote:

My old B Shon player from a while ago, he got 3 yellow cards and no red cards in 147 games, he never got suspended, the only games I remember him moss were through injuries during the game so therefore it did not register his appearances.Quote:

It's time to pay my "taxes" 😁
Last 2 matches - draw and lost to slightly weaker teams
Since I paid my dues - hopefully on a winning spree again
Fingers crossed and hope my taxes are enough to pay
Onwards to good news
Happy Lunar New year
Cheers
