2014 The Atletico Madrid Challenge:

The Atletico Madrid Challenge:

 

 

Atletico Madrid have an amazing knack of producing some of Europe's most desired strikers, in recent years they've produced and/or signed an amazing line of super star strikers including Fernando Torres, Sergio Aguero, Diego Forlan and most recently Falcao. Many clubs have looked on in wonder as Atletico have managed to sell on their prized assets yet replace them with ease, can you match this feat?

 

 

The Challenge:

 

1.Starting with Atletico and a striker already at the club you must score 30+ goals in a single season then demote and sell the striker.

 

2. Now you must sign a replacement for the talented forward.

 

3. Your replacement must now go on to score 30+ goals in a single season

 

4. Once the season is finished and he has his 30+ goals you must demote and sell the player

 

5. You now sign a replacement....Rinse and repeat.

 

In Short:

 

Your striker must score 30+ a season, if he fails the challenge is over. If you manage to score 30+ goals you demote and sell the striker and find someone else to once again score 30+ goals. This continues until you fail or have enough.

 

 

The Rules:

 

1. If a player fails to break 30 the challenge is over.

 

2. Screen shots must be used as evidence, ideally a career would be posted in the careers section for us to follow.

 

3. Own formations only

 

4. No cheats, glitches, unlockables (outside ones unlocked in the save) or editing of the game in any way (save editor/change texts)

 

5. Have fun

Oh, the memories Let's see if anyone can beat our 14 players

Oh, the memories Let's see if anyone can beat our 14 players

Your H2H was the best career going in 13 IMO. Hope you do it again!

[Ashez]

It is such a fun challenge

I didn't want to add it to the OP but remember you can change the challenge to make it harder, for example:

Graveluth could only use free players and he set himself a higher target, while AS and myself made it that you had to get 30 with two players etc.

Wow - thank you for such a kind comment! Since people enjoyed our H2H, I'm sure me and Ash will arrange something .

[Lee-Roy]

This is a great challenge and I'd like to see another H2H

[dirtboy]

I've played a few seasons, and looking good so far. I might post it later on

Please do, would love to see this in action again

[dirtboy]

One question-do you have to buy the player, or can they be from your B team?

[Archie Graveluth]

You have to buy them at the corresponding transfer window. This means you can't buy a player now and use him after two years.

[dirtboy]

So no players you've developed yourself, just ones you bought? Might have to start again.

[Ashez]

The rules are pretty clear that the striker must be signed that window.

[anfieldsquirrel]

Memories of mine and Ash's H2H, me scraping it after the final round

[dirtboy]

Well, I've finished my attempt at this challenge, with 5 strikers. I guess that makes me the leader this year

[Agent47]

What do you guys think about the atletico madrid challenge with two strikers

[UKFootballScore]

what do you mean?

[Ashez]

1. This should have been asked in the thread.

2. It's fine and a good idea, AS came up with the idea of two strikers in a season (first till jan second till end of season), but i get the feeling you're on about double troubling the idea?

[Agent47]

Yes, so it will be double d goals too

[Ashez]

I've merged the topics

 

Sounds like a good idea.

[Agent47]

Currently doing it with two strikers

[Danne]

I'm a little curious what the rules say about former Atletico players, are the likes of Torres and Falcao acceptable? I assume that you can only use a player once in your career.

[Ashez]

I want to say that is fine yet in a way it beats the point of the challenge, i'm not really sure but i am leaning towards it being allowed. What does everyone else think?

[Danne]

It doesn't really matter to me, I just want to clarify since I'm thinking about doing this challenge to play a career that's a little bit more relaxed than my 1k with Facundo Ferreyra.

I don't want to break any rules by mistake.

[Ashez]

I'm going to say it's fine

[Danne]

I also assume that it's ok to make an offer for a player during spring, as long as he doesn't join the club until the summer transfer window, am I right?

[Ashez]

Yes.

[Agent47]

I want to do this again after failing. this time no twists.
