Career Juve No. "10" Multi-Challenge - season 6.


 Share

Recommended Posts

This is a thread for my attempt at the Juventus number 10 challenge, originally posted here: 

The first "10" had to be Irish, so I signed the mighty Alan Judge from Brentford for £3.1m. I expected this to be one of the lowest scoring seasons, due to building the team and to not having as good an option as potential French/Italian/Argentinian number 10's but Alan completely surpassed all expectations. We won Serie A, Italian Cup, Italian Super Cup and reached the semis of the Champions League, losing in added time. He also inspired us to victory in one of the craziest results ever, in the quarters of the same competition.

In the end, he contributed to 44 goals in 51 games and picked up numerous accolades:

So next up is a French number 10, and I've chosen Corentin Tolisso. Look forward to seeing how this goes.

Total so far: 44.

Nice start. I like the choice of player for season 1 as it’s someone different from the usual suspects. 

Thats an absolute hammering of Barca. 8 clear cut chances!

In the first leg I changed my formation to be more conservative, but went 2-0 down after 6 minutes. Changed back to normal and had 30 shots, 16 on target and 5 clear chances! Still took a last minute goal to equalise 😂

Yeah sometimes you can be too conservative. Looks like you’ve got a good set up there to be getting those shots on target and clear cut chances.

Season 2

For season 2, it's Corentin Tolisso's turn. (I know not the most original choice 😂). So in he came from Bayern, in some very busy transfer windows.Screenshot_20190103-045046.thumb.jpg.5c6aba7ae79d2c471abbf374372e5ffc.jpgScreenshot_20190103-045053.thumb.jpg.af20f1ab339740f36e7b24a48be09536.jpgScreenshot_20190103-045102.thumb.jpg.df0c25a930b2d24e935c91fa12e95ee6.jpgScreenshot_20190103-045115.thumb.jpg.fe74d757ce09e504a9e5bed71a0ac03e.jpgScreenshot_20190103-045122.thumb.jpg.35b1d43c52e7bb68d533f030680f7053.jpg

 

So we now have a brand new squad to break in, never mind just a number 10. So how'd they do?Screenshot_20190103-044609.thumb.jpg.c7fa58343a3c353e3d78ecae0ee69f77.jpgScreenshot_20190103-044617.thumb.jpg.c1a08c4ddab46d1ff2fd14edf219c58c.jpgScreenshot_20190103-044624.thumb.jpg.899bd95b33ebf9f62cd991c01433cc0f.jpg

 

Serie A got absolutely steamrolled, with Tolisso flying in both the goals and assists charts. However, in the cups, not so good. It started well with a Super Cup win...Screenshot_20190103-050150.thumb.jpg.2f9c3a096c7e5bf786667f956d5d8fe4.jpg

 

But then it just went wrong, firstly Barcelona got their revenge after the 8-0 last season. I was frustrated but the Italian Cup  was a whole other kettle of fish.Screenshot_20190103-044251.thumb.jpg.cc902324b24217cdc9398592c40dc814.jpgScreenshot_20190103-044258.thumb.jpg.aea32d88ea7d8dc40b395511ca54400b.jpgScreenshot_20190103-044309.thumb.jpg.a9c187afe93b0496b57fad4558e6fcf5.jpg

😡😡😡

After those disappointments, can Tolisso's stats cheer me up?Screenshot_20190103-044416.thumb.jpg.bc30e2e36264229aa44e098e98f5bacb.jpg

 

He absolutely smashed it! Contributing to 13 more goals than Judge, in just 1 more appearance. Also spare a thought for Alan, who doesn't seem to love life at Marseille.Screenshot_20190103-045139.thumb.jpg.877f3ffa81311fe2de7c32c3415fb8e2.jpg

Score:

S1 - Alan Judge 44

S2 - Corentin Tolisso 57

S3 -?

Total: 101.

Good return for Tolisso. Hard luck on the Italian Cup final. Looks like it just wasn’t meant to be your day looking at the match stats. 

Cheers. Match report even said that I was unlucky not to score.

Good season. Definitely a challenge where your score will improve as your squad improves. 

Hopefully, thinking of switching it up a bit and going for a tactic which is all out attack. Defence might leak more but my next guys stats could be unreal.

He only got a match rating of 7! Screenshot_20190104-082149.thumb.jpg.b039b3023987f8b2cfff4f479e728081.jpg

Season 3

As you may have seen above, my pick for this season was Bryan Cristante, who had big shoes to fill, after I used Corentin Tolisso in a part exchange deal for Thomas Lamar.

Screenshot_20190105-074958.thumb.jpg.22e3267369e73fa9042d841748387d6e.jpgScreenshot_20190105-075710.thumb.jpg.b4f22088111cbc8c0b1a011e6899cc1a.jpgScreenshot_20190105-075724.thumb.jpg.6af4b14e4e8301244e0a4bb6e98067dc.jpgOnce again, the league was a walk in the park, finishing unbeaten and with my "number 10" topping both the goals and assists charts. However, once again I came unstuck against Barcelona (I miss that 8-0 win) and lost in the Italian Cup under unfortunate circumstances.Screenshot_20190105-075007.thumb.jpg.4132e9f5b4aa90c0bc4ef192e763ec68.jpgScreenshot_20190105-075017.thumb.jpg.c522e8b80e535dd79e565f19f5184251.jpgScreenshot_20190105-075120.thumb.jpg.66e515ec79cfac413d9e722c127e40e3.jpg

Aftet all that, how'd Bryan Cristante do? An injury impacted his season severely, but he still absolutely blew away both of his predecessors stats away...Screenshot_20190105-074743.thumb.jpg.1cff6cc819fa9449c9f57655b8132f77.jpgScreenshot_20190105-074732.thumb.jpg.ea1c0a4ea7ea937e741bdd5eb897d184.jpg69 goals/assists! I can't help but wonder what would've happened if he didn't get injured and we continued in the cups? Maybe push for 80? Anyhow, speaking of predecessors, how are Alan and Corentin doing now they've left our mighty Turin side?Screenshot_20190105-075502.thumb.jpg.7f664deb5a7667c7e7c495c2576aa4c1.jpgScreenshot_20190105-075441.thumb.jpg.5379ebfa16e94fc1dc1d1e191cb80711.jpgNot Great. Life isn't so great on the other side...

So Bryan Cristante picked up our biggest score to date, meaning that our total thus far is:

S1: Alan Judge - 17G, 27A = 44

S2: Corentin Tolisso - 27G, 30A = 57

S3: Bryan Cristante - 41G, 28A = 69

Total: 170.

you are doing well so far. Just completed my first season with Judge and he exceeded my expectations.

Yeah I just saw it mate, just changed my tactics last season and wish I'd started with them because the scores could've been scary. Hindsight is a wonderful thing

Season 4

Loved the experimental approach with my new tactics and put the finishing touches towards a "strikerless El Rondo". My choice to lead this tactic to glory is:Screenshot_20190105-083727.thumb.jpg.d8975231c903b567548a7397aed816dd.jpgAnd here are my transfers (decided not to screenshot all the loans).Screenshot_20190105-222807.thumb.jpg.f7846cadb6a810304fb6660b733a0e75.jpgScreenshot_20190105-222820.thumb.jpg.8fdef83308018039e32ef3a2c1a01b02.jpg

LeagueScreenshot_20190105-222631.thumb.jpg.2b4cb4f1426adfa7216fafc731277c6b.jpg

Absolute goals galore fired me to another scudetto, although I'm furious that I lost my unbeaten league record, which spanned for almost 3 years if I've looked correctly. A 3-1 defeat to Milan on the penultimate game of the season (with Zaniolo rested) ending my record. The season was otherwise comfortable, with a 2-2 draw at home to Chievo and a 1-1 away to Napoli the only other blemishes on the record.

Domestic CupsScreenshot_20190105-222733.thumb.jpg.47eb2ffc9b5e3e59927d5e0d8f19726f.jpg

Easy as you like for the Super Cup. Smashed through the Italian Cup, beating Fiorentina, Napoli and Inter on the way to the final where I'd face...Atalanta. This is bringing back flashbacks of that 1-0 two seasons ago. Would time repeat itself?Screenshot_20190105-222658.thumb.jpg.2e3b98415f4fd25110b3472691858bea.jpgNope. The Italian Cup returns to the Allianz Stadium after a 2 year absence.

Champions League

Win a group containing Valencia, Schalke and Ajax? ✔️

Beat PSG in last 16? ✔️ 9-1 agg.

Get revenge on Barca? ✔️ 6-0 agg.

Beat Chelsea in semis? 3-4 agg.

Seems to be a tradition, either lose to Barca, or beat them and lose to an English club in the semis. Maybe next year!Screenshot_20190105-222643.thumb.jpg.845ff12af4a11af20a4c6c1f4c5cc9b2.jpgScreenshot_20190105-222650.thumb.jpg.b84ccfbc466352bb3c35afc1f2a42c4d.jpg

Score

Screenshot_20190105-222618.thumb.jpg.ac63c4dab52b90c62c973a7531537d4e.jpg64 goals contributed and 4 weeks injured. I'll take it. Well done lad, you did well.

S1: Alan Judge - 17G, 27A = 44

S2: Corentin Tolisso - 27G, 30A = 57

S3: Bryan Cristante - 41G, 28A = 69

S4: Nicolo Zaniolo - 37G, 27A = 64

Total: 234

Another season done; another great score. Keep it up.

Cheers. Been flying through it as thoroughly enjoying it. Plus with travelling to away games, I've have a good 12 hours of playing uninterrupted...

Just finished the next season, I aim to finish the entire challenge over the next few days, feel highly motivated. Any one got any they'd like to recommend for once I finish?

Try the Atletico Madrid striker challenge. No one has ever done it and it is almost similar to the Juve No. 10. A new striker every season once your previous one gets 30+ goals.

I've made a pretty big error and picked the wrong nationality for season 5 and forgot to save beforehand (last save is march 2021). Therefore, I think the challenge is over unless anyone has any ideas @Nucleus @Rob @1759 @danovic78

This was an ace read so far, I love the unique player picks and the fact they performed for you!

This sucks!

My take - Get to January and sign the right player, the challenge then continued from here and you only get half a season with number 5. It'll suck but it's better than starting again or dropping it here. 

@danovic78?

I'd finished season 5 in its entirety unfortunately. I've holidayed through "season 4", ensuring I made the same signings as shown above (Barbiero wasn't available, must be regen). Also ensured that I won the same competitions. Think it would be okay to carry on from here?Screenshot_20190107-135611.thumb.jpg.827fc3ac3b22fdb4a5f2c96ecf4fcf2a.jpgScreenshot_20190107-135643.thumb.jpg.e1f55dbe83df2fb929a8e41343b3ae5f.jpgScreenshot_20190107-140336.thumb.jpg.fd3f60e53c53e2cebc590c15362fc0ce.jpg

Sounds awful. Not sure what you can do to keep it going but tbh if it were me I’d be tempted to restart it. Maybe not want you want to hear but you seemed to be enjoying it and now you more knowledge of the challenge so you would soon get back into it I’m sure.

I'm gonna restart, might make a couple of small changes in terms of choosing my next number 10. Is there a way to delete this thread one I've started the other?

I’ll look forward to following your progress. 

Once you start the new thread maybe ask one of the mods in this one to delete this thread.
