Career A 1k Down under? Is it possible?

The Land of Oz

You guys may have wondered where my Vikings update is, and it's late because I've been playing with this.

Now I have not really taken much notice of the Australian league in fmm but I do know that it is very even, virtually anyone can win. It's also very short at under 30 games. So I questioned, could a 1k be done here?

Is it possible?

The Problems

There are a number of issues facing a 1k here.

  1. Getting a decent striker
  2. Getting a decent team around him
  3. The opposition are pretty even to you quality wise
  4. Holding onto your striker (wage demands etc)
  5. The short league length

But im going to try anyway.

The Team

I had to go for a successful team so after a little research I went for....

They have some half decent players and some good looking youngsters.

The Player

As much as I would love to bring a Ze Gomes to Melbourne it just wouldn't happen so I searched far and wide before purchasing a striker for £90,000. Yes £90k. And I reckon he's a bargain.

 Fingers crossed he scores like he looks he can.

Good luck! Not a huge fan of the Australian league simply because of the difficulty of bringing in elite players, but a fun league regardless

The biggest difficulty will be holding onto a decent player. I'm hoping to unlock sugar daddy to offer my guy bigger wages to stay in future.

Update 1

Having played ahead a little I didn't really take many screenshots but this current screenshot shows you how season 1 went.

Also our main man got player of the year.

Screenshot_20170807-123841.thumb.png.3d52c31af60504f634d837b5d65ee66f.png

How many goals did he get on the way there?

Screenshot_20170807-131243.thumb.png.d7f422b277a132b6320fecb1d421484a.png

55 in the first year. A great sign of what he can do but 55 won't be enough in the coming years. 65+ is what is needed.

Great start! Something I've attempted very briefly in private, I look forward to following your progress. Surely you can't be on the leaderboard twice this year? :P

Only 42 games. Not a whole lot to work with, still a good start.

I think that may be the max you can get out of Australia.

Great season @kts365 hopefully there is more success to come. It's amazing how popular Australia is a the moment. KIU

Udate 2

After the first season went well this season was set to prove it was not a fluke.

So how did season 2 go?

Screenshot_20170813-165101.thumb.png.105e9e0b026b1027919926b2850beace.png

That champions league result is a little misleading as it is actually the early stages of next year's competition. So realistically we didn't have a champions league this year. Regardless, how did out man perform?

Screenshot_20170809-211809.thumb.png.738b7458e37d2d21ac4a96829e6658a5.png

Player of the year is a good start. How many goals did he get?

Screenshot_20170809-220058.thumb.png.f0f04612d11317319815c4f330d56de8.png

Same amount of games but 4 less goals....51 is good but not what we need.

Still good going and plenty of time left to get there, but this is always going to be one hell of an uphill battle, but I'm sure after netting 1500 with Ze Gomes you can do this

Oh cool! I had an Australian 1KC in the back of my mind as something to try one day. Can't wait to see how you go. It's a pretty good start! ?

Update 3

After 2 years in a row of 50+ goals this year of like my man to hit 60+

First lets see how the team did.

Screenshot_20170813-160106.thumb.png.35216f0a05136e065eda3af9f240f360.png

An easy league win with a good amount of goals. But this was not the biggest achievement.....

Screenshot_20170810-194329.thumb.png.ad317dd8de8e1fb70c2370a62a1b04eb.png

Not the biggest trophy in the world but it's how we won it that is amazing.

Screenshot_20170810-194334.thumb.png.c00caa57444e47b5be6b76ea037327ce.png

We took Chelsea down with a fantastic counter-attacking display. What a result.

Screenshot_20170816-104321.thumb.png.4ee65f2d124099adbc9963527fb294d0.png

And again the champions league is a misrepresentation as we won it this year but it begins again before the season ends. This means we did the Quadruple this year. All trophies won.

How did our man Echavarria do?

Screenshot_20170812-191758.thumb.png.a1bb1670f725756489a573dfcb1691bf.png

Player of the year again. Clearly he did rather well.

Screenshot_20170813-160050.thumb.png.b8b4d4575e83e607830a3bbeeba9b4a3.png

Yes he did. 62 goals this year! Fantastic stuff, especially as he was

a) impossible to find a good training regime for, forever unhappy

b) upset that I wouldn't sell him to Aston Villa

So 62 goals is fantastic.

But then you may have noticed something on that last screenshot.

Spoiler

International goals have been scored for Colombia.

Screenshot_20170809-224833.thumb.png.e678b6abd7bd244863aa6741a2abaeed.png

Because I have the job!

Screenshot_20170813-180535.thumb.png.129d4851f1fa11058b7b44460c0b1043.png

And won the Copa America!

Screenshot_20170813-160041.thumb.png.ccf60dae34facbedf94d8636fbc398bd.png

And he scored 10 in 10!

All the exclamations!!!!!

Which means he has a total of 72 goals this year and this challenge has licked into gear.

Club goals - 168

International goals - 10

Total - 178

Goals to 1000 - 822

Itn actually hadn't crossed my mind when I picked him. What's strange is that Colombia were ranked either 1st or second when I got the job

Wuality season, a huge amount of goals indeed. I'm feeling an 80 goal season coming with that ITN job!!

Hope so mate!

Great season mate and it's only upwards from here - you'll get this done no worries, especially with the international job too. That's fantastic to get so early.

It seems Colombia is one of the easier ones to get as I got it at about the same time in one of my careers - so great job in picking a Colombian for the 1KC! ? They're a good team as well.

Great season and a fantastic boost in getting the INT job early as well, I missed out on the Holland Job as I missed it when it became available so will have to wait another 2/3 years before they fail again

KIU dude, your doing great

UPDATE 4

Last season was a fantastic step forward in the challenge but how would this year go?

Screenshot_20170821-150918.thumb.png.366b638234515aa27d1e9b4441a61586.png

Another league win.

Screenshot_20170821-150858.thumb.png.f29936612a8d4574b1a9f3ae1e60a2df.png

And a hat-trick in the grand final for our man.

We win the champions league and move onto the world club cup and face Chelsea in the semis. Will they get revenge?

Screenshot_20170815-132548.thumb.png.c94db91ebe254df6ea33fe85b966f0fc.png

Oh my, a 95th minute winner to break the blues hearts.

Screenshot_20170815-133122.thumb.png.98e7c8a06e41745c61cdca4a805659fe.png

Screenshot_20170821-151028.thumb.png.8cfbf7210d945564826394742334afbb.png

We won everything again!

But how did Echavarria do?

Screenshot_20170820-225116.thumb.png.9ebf133a7e7671c2bee70f5ba9d0b269.png

 

Player of the year

Screenshot_20170821-150937.thumb.png.f5d8c646cb1bb1f98cfa9a66258f963d.png

Less goals this year but 59 is still fantastic

How many international goals did he get?

Screenshot_20170814-203808.thumb.png.6caee7fda9f296f11cc9085122a69927.png

5 goals in one game here!

Screenshot_20170821-150928.thumb.png.94a4e1293caf77c84e974e671eed58bf.png

13 international goals.

So another season of 72 goals! Fantastic stuff.

Club Goals - 227

International goals - 23

Total Goals - 250

To 1000 - 750

Quarter of the way now.
