Career Rob tries everything: TT, DT, and 1kc

[Rob]

So, I’ve got my first child due in a month or so and a few weeks ago I thought to myself: what challenge can I do until then?    Inspired by @DutchTony I thought I’d give the four strikers thing a go. I kinda figured I’d try and do the 1kc, DT, and TT all in one, selecting the best performing strikers at the end.

This won’t be detailed updates as I want to zoom through it, but rather a test of everything I’ve learnt in the game. I’ve successfully done a TT before so this will follow a similar theme. 

My main target, really, is to just have fun and score a ridiculous amount of goals.

All four strikers will play in the front line all of the time, unless injured. @danovic78 I’m assuming that fills the criteria for each challenge?

I’ve chosen PSG and my four strikers are:

I’ve done five seasons so far. I’ll post updates soon.

Wish me luck!

All the best mate! Can’t wait to see how you get on 

[Rob]

Cheers mate. I’ll be posting end of season goals rather than detailed updates so don’t expect too much in terms of fun updates. 

[Titjes]

Good luck mate can't wait to see those updates

Top selection of players you have there so I can't see many problems

[Rob]

105 between the four in season 1. Not too bad considering age.

99 season two, but less games. Not sure what Junior was up to.

115 season three.

120 season four.

147 season five. Business picked up. Mbappe and Havertz are 23.

So, five seasons in:

Kylian: 223

Junior: 88

Kai: 111

Isak: 164

Fairly pleased so far, especially as the goals are ramping up nicely. Kylian is obviously on pens and free kicks.

Yep, I know I could have picked some players not as good, but I just want to score a shedload of goals and enjoy myself whilst I can. 

[DutchTony]

Love it mate. I'll definitely be following this. Well done so far.

[Titjes]

Doing great mate those are 5 fine seasons, keep it up

[Nucleus]

Cracking first five mate! Well done, KIU

[Rob]

Three more:

A 157 season. 

131 in 2024. Both Kylian and Isak suffered from injuries. Good season still. 

145 in 2025. Kylian really is awesome. 

I will do a few more seasons and then post them along with current player stats and ratings.

[Rob]

So, first thing first, my target to finish this before my first child was born has failed - he arrived three weeks early on Monday just gone. However, as he does do a lot of sleeping I’ve managed to cram some more FMM in. Three more seasons:

143 between the foursome.

And a 145.

140 inthe most recent. Dembele is my stand in attacker and we had a lot of injuries, coupled with my refusal to not play four up front in this challenge.

Mbappe is the oldest of the lads at 29 and usually retires at 36, so have seven seasons left. This is where I’m at:

Goals/assists...

Mbappe: 569/167

Isak: 388/166

Vinicious: 228/202

Havertz: 272/234

Closing in on the DT and TT. Not entirely sure Mbappe will grab the 1kc, especially as it’ll be so dependent on no injuries.

[DutchTony]

Congratulations mate. Enjoy the sleepless nights 😉 😊

[Titjes]

Congrats with your child mate  

Challenge is going great as well  

[Kingsolop]

Congratulations on becoming a father. 

Great challenge by the way. 

[FuddledFox]

Congratulations on the new baby, I hope its all going well.

Smashing this challenge mate. 

[Woody]

Well done on creating life...its the best feeling! 

I've done it twice....boy & a girl. They argue loads!!😂

But thats why we gave FMM, to take us away from situations you cant control!

Oh....excellent work on your career, some stunning numbers from 4 strikers.. brilliant.

Kiu dude 👍

Thanks for the congratulations guys. Last night was our first at home after five nights being kept in hospital. Nothing quite compares you for that ‘what the heck do we do?’ moment at three in the morning when he won’t stop screaming/crying!

I’ve learnt to laugh those moments off mate! Even if it does make you feel like tearing your hair out 😂 it’ll get worse before it gets better!

[Rob]

Couple more seasons:

156 in 2029.

138 in the season following. Odd season, as   I didn’t win everything 😠

Basically I have five seasons left before Kylian retires. I’ve pretty much got TT and DT covered, but I need about 60 a season from him for the 1kc.

More importantly, blinkin’ heck when people say you don’t sleep when you have a kid they ain’t lying. It’s like he has a button on his back that makes him cry and every time we put him down at night he presses on it.

[Rob]

Kylian was superb this season, when not injured. A total of 157 for the lads. Druissi, I’m fairly convinced, is a Messi regen who I have managed to retrain in central midfield and has been superb since.

Current status:

Kylian: 754

Kai: 374

Isak: 484

Vinicious: 286

Isak and Kylian have smashed the DT target. Throw Kai in there and we have a TT smashed too.

I have managed to get Kylian to play a season longer than his initial retirement, so I’ve got five seasons to get 250 with him, although he will be a gereatric come the end so it won’t be as easy as 50 goals a season should be. I will post final season stats and final challenge scores at the end.

[GingerbreadPooches]

Awesome going there mate! Looks like it'll go close for Mbappes 1KC but as long as he can keep up his current momentum you should be able to smash it 👌 

PS. Massive congratulations on the newborn!
