Welcome back Rip, a nice challenge to get you back in the swing of things

Good to see you @Taff. Let's just see how I progress...

 

On a side note, I can't seem to find the option for me to centralize my text. Is there any other way to get my text to be in the center?

Transfers IN:

5a8aeddccf06b_TransfersIN.thumb.png.037f760959d93ec1ee280d481338037c.png

Got some quality players to strengthen the squad to really challenge for the title this season.

So here's how the first half of the season looks like - 

Division Table:

Table.thumb.png.f3cba05ab59bbdb613a3f73258bbf1b6.png

Still behind Man City even with a game in hand.. tweaked the tactics and looking good so far!

The King playing as awesome still for this second season. Just hoping he can stay injury-free.

Carabao Cup:

Progressed to the final for the Carabao Cup again.. still in the other competitions (FA Cup, Champions League) though. Will have to see the outcome on the next update!

Thanks for reading fellow Vibers! Stay tune for the next update of the whole Second Season (y)

Keep going. It’s looking good so far. Just out of interest, why didn’t you opt for Isak?

Cheers mate. Isak is my backup player if my king/warlord (Guidetti) is banished. Don't have to worry about his age either

You stated that the Non-Viking Players (Denmark, Norway and Sweden)need to be sold or demoted, but u Actually bought em and are playing with em? Though I think all of the Scandinavian countries were indirectly Vikings.

Yes they are already sold on the first season. That's where I got enough transfer funds to bring the Scandinavian team in during the first season which adds up to around £400m +

Here is the team sheet in the current save:
