Challenges The John Charles challenge (aka extreme conversion)

[kts365]

Introduction

I have recently been undertaking my first 1k challenge and have been thinking of starting a converted winger challenge.  However, both of the above got me thinking about a challenge I could create myself based somewhat on an all time great player.

The Man

John Charles is considered a legend by both Leeds and Juventus fans, scoring over 100 goals for both clubs. He is also considered one of the best "all rounders" ever to have played the game, as he was as equally adept at centre half as he was up front. Standing at 6ft2 and blessed with both great strength and pace, as well as a powerful and accurate shot, he could boss the game at either end of the field. He was also never carded throughout his career. His career goal tally was 385 goals in 753 games including his Welsh international career.

The Challenge

Taking inspiration from the CB/CF  I devised this challenge.

Take an established CB (must be natural in that position) and convert him into a striker.

The aim is to outscore John Charles' career total of 385 goals

Rules

• Player must be natural in CB position
• European leagues only
• No unlockables
• No editors
• Only count international goals if you manage that nation
• No reloads

Other than this you can employ any tactics on either match engine that you please (I will undertake this on the Enhanced engine).

Optional targets of 500, 600 and 700 or any higher of your choice are of course encouraged.

Good luck to any takers.

Now that is a challenge mate that seems like it would be very difficult, if I was to do it i have a CB in mind who is already yellow in the striker department is that ok?

What a cool challange!?

Mikee that is absolutely fine. Only rule on position is that he's a natural centre half

Great challenge. Might be one for FMM2017 for me as it's 1K or nothing at the moment.

Luis Henrique with SLB - I've just posted a very short first season.

As this is my first challange, just a few questions:

-Is it allowed to use 'Board Requests' to improve facilities?

-Is it allowed to improve coaches, including your own badge with exams?

-Is it allowed to use 'retrain position' with the CB?

Thank you!?
