Career One last Magical Experience - Season 18 [The End]

Recommended Posts

One lastĀ MagicalĀ ExperienceĀ 

So having decided to move onto EME with the advent of FMM19, I wanted one last great adventure on OME.

What to choose? Well start with the givens:

  • OMEĀ šŸ˜Ž
  • 433 (my favourite ā€œgotoā€ formation)Ā 
  • A Triple-Threat challenge (this flows naturally from 433)

Ā 

For a league and club, I wanted somewhere that I hadnā€™t managed recently (or ever). While looking around, I realised that I had never managed at this great club and I donā€™t know how Iā€™d overlooked it for all theseĀ yearsĀ šŸ˜Æ:

  • Bayern Munich
  • [If it was FMM08, Iā€™d take their 3 current strikers Lewandowski, MĆ¼ller and Wagner on the TT straightaway, but unfortunately they are too old for a TT nowĀ šŸ˜•]

Ā 

So who to use as my TT strikers? Well I want to also manage their national team, so it seems to come down to a French trio or and Italian trio:

Ā 

Well having decided on Bayern as my club, the french trio are ruledĀ out because MbappĆ© is stuck in PSG for a season. So my TT strikers are:

  • The Italian wonderkids Pietro Pellegri, Moise Kean and Andrea PinamontiĀ šŸ‘
  • [Apologies to the 1Ks currently running with a couple of these guys but a single-nation TT choice is very limited]

Ā 

Alongside the TT, Iā€™ve got a couple of side shows that Iā€™m aiming for

  • Get at least one of my strikers to 1K (having got so close with Breel Embolo in my Subolo DT)
  • Seeing if there is actually a good player behindĀ those ā€œredsā€ and ā€œbrownsā€ in thisĀ other Italian wonderkid:

Ā 

I hope you enjoy my OME swansong!

Should be a good one this. I enjoyed your DT. Best of luck!

Thanks @fRESHĀ and @Rob2017. I hope itā€™s as much fun as the Subolo DT.

Havenā€™t been a national manager for a long while now. How do you keep uptodate with the players? Didnā€™t there use to be an automatic selection that you could use to get the basic squad and tweak from there? (As you can imagine, I only really care about the 3 strikers playingĀ šŸ˜‰)

Pellegri is one hell of a beast (in my career at least, so let's hope for you also)Ā ;)Ā :P

Thanks @Titjes. Got him on penalty duties alreadyĀ šŸ˜‰

Nice idea, and a great selection of players. Bear in mind that you have to earn the national job during the save and arenā€™t allowed to start with it! Otherwise you wonā€™t be eligible for the leaderboard! All the best mate

Rats!! That could have been embarrassingĀ šŸ˜±

The TT challenge isnā€™t very clear about this but reading the 1K challenge it is much clearer.

I was just about to post season 1 where I have been manager of both Bayern and Italy. To save re-doing the whole season, do you think I could:

  • Resign as Italy manager
  • Ignore all international goals for nowĀ 
  • Then either wait for Italy job in the future (but not immediately after my resignation)
  • Or never manage Italy and conclude the challenge on club goals only

Ā 

Wasnā€™t what I wanted to hear @NucleusĀ but Iā€™m actually really glad you mentioned it now. Thanks

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news! šŸ˜Ÿ Iā€™m not sure what your best course of action is. Iā€™m tempted to say restart the challenge from the off to be honest! @AshezĀ might have a better opinion?

You'll have to restart unfortunately as your reputation would have been impacted, sure it doesn't state no ITN from the start however it does state no unlockables which starting as a ITN coach is.Ā

Because it isnā€™t onĀ the options/unlockables page when you start a new save, Iā€™d forgotten it was an achievement. Live and learn!Ā šŸ˜•

Iā€™ll restart the save again tomorrow.

What tactics and instructions are you using please

Tactics may change as I go on,Ā so itā€™s probably a little early.

However, if youā€™ve read the tactics bit inĀ the Subolo DT thread and I say this is a 433 (OME) then you can probably work it outĀ šŸ˜‰

Season 1 - 2017/2018

So after a false start, here is the first season of my OME swansong TT.

Ā 

Transfers

Season 1 usually sees a huge number of ins and outs, and this career went a little mad in this areašŸ˜›

Transfers Out

In addition to moving on the existing strikers and other players who wouldnā€™t fit my plans for the squad, I got some surprise offers for Boateng, Martinez and Thiago. I decided to take the money because in each case it was enough to buyĀ 2 talented youngsters in equivalent positions.

The incomings were predominantly young talent. Christensen was a response to Boateng leaving. Pellegri, Pinamonti and Kean all needed larger fees than Iā€™d expected.

In fact this turned out to be our biggest scoreĀ all seasonĀ šŸ˜Ž

The German Cup final must have been thrilling to watch! But a win is a win.

A good first roundĀ win .... although most of the goals from anyone but the TT trio

Solid start mate. Well done. I usually make wholesale changes at Munich.

I must say, though, every time I see this thread pop up in my notifications I keep thinking someone is going to Disney.

For some reason, Real Madrid wouldnā€™t honour the buy-out clause in the James RodrĆ­guez loan, so I pushed the boat out to get Eriksen as a replacement. AlsoĀ managed to get Amiri when he was unsettled.

Notice the last player, Tino Gschwender, who was an Academy graduate. His name will come up again laterĀ šŸ˜‰

Also signed my first ever player from Togo Ā šŸ˜€Ā hopefully he will develop into a reliable backup striker. Must admit I probably wouldnā€™t have signed him if he was from anywhere else.

So similar season to the first with domestic dominance and failing at the semis in Europe. Still pleased with TT results from a young trio.

Pietro Pellegri

Spoiler

Unfortunate short injury (unfortunate because Pinamonti got injured at the same time)

Down slightly on his previous high, but still really prolific

Andrea Pinamonti

Spoiler

As noted above, a small injury at the same time at Pellegri. A longer injury in season 7

Less games and goals in season 7 but still scoring freely

TT Scores

Spoiler

Goals in season 6: 58 + 64 + 51 = 173

Goals in season 7: 44 + 65 + 40 = 149

Goals to-date: 651 + 173 + 149 = 973Ā šŸ˜Ž

So 2 more great seasons for Bayern....in fact they are sometimes a bit boring to manageĀ šŸ¤”

But Bayernā€™sĀ dominance is really helping the Italian trio, so itā€™s all good in the end!

Ā 

.....and next season will be in a brand newĀ stadium
