Road to Success - How to Win the Cup

[nikolgiorgos]

6 it's what I use
6 1* players
+ 8 5 to 6* players (good performers + fast trainers if possible)
+ 7 5* "mercenaries, bought and sold in the end of the season (must be careful and don't give them the 6*, so try to sell them before the new season)
+ 1 empty position for the academy player or some good opportunity

please post a picture of your team

Oh wow, that's pretty difficult to have subs aswell as 1*s. I'm not sure I can fit 6 in. Have a look when you add me and let me know who I should sell

[nikolgiorgos]

Congratulations El Pistolero for your Cup.
I think you got the point of this thread.
Unfortunately you didn't won the treble but as I said, it's very tough and this method it's just giving some more hopes for that.
To win the treble needs a lot of concentration but luck too.
If you want, you can post an image of your team (try from your pc, maybe work it a little) in a way like this, to have a more clear picture, for the next season

Thankyou Niko. I wouldn't of got as far as I did without this guide. The League draw was just pure bad luck which put me against a guy who went half the season unbeaten until I changed that. And my CL semi final opponent had too much quality.



I've sold a few subs but still need to lower more quality.

[nikolgiorgos]

my team NIK F.C. after staying two seasons in the same level, with many young fast trainers who got their 6* and 7* star, won this league a little bit early even if most of the teams had many 6* players.


The target for the next season is another treble so it's time for deconstruction

I won the cup this season as I did last year with my best14 at the beginning of the season being all 5* ( level 27). I noticed less troll results in the cup for the last 3seasons and that must explain it. In fact, in this final, i was supposed to lose to a team with more 25% Q than me

[El Pistolero]

I won the treble using this method. Wouldn't of been possible without it.

[nikolgiorgos]

With this method sure you have more chances but still it needs good management, strong will, concentration and of course luck.
Congratulations !

It helps having a high scoring left winger, an assist machine striker and a freekick scoring MC too. Signing the right players who perform well consistently.

The guide helped me avoid teams 3 divisions higher in quality now I'm facing equal teams

[El Pistolero]

Niko, how many 1*s can I get away with? I tested keeping 10 first team players and 6 1*s and I still get equal if not less quality.

It would be great to keep a full 11 first team and have more spaces during the season then offload the subs before end of season.
