Career Strikerless 1 Season Challenge!


 Share

Recommended Posts

Original:

Love this idea for the challenge so going to put my "Sunderland Til I Die" career to one side until I'm on my way down to Charlton on Saturday and take a break from my "Juve no. 10" career.

I had decided to choose Celtic and pick three of the most prolific attacking midfielders of this generation...Charlie Adam, Tom Rogic and David Edwards. However: 

1. Charlie Adam is quite possibly the worst player I've ever used on this game to date.

2. I misunderstood the challenge  and thought it meant 3x AMC.

Therefore, my attempt mk. 2 will be on here soon. (Now started, further down in the thread)

 

This is gonna be fun!

Celtic Attempt mk.2

As previously mentioned, due to being an idiot I completely misunderstood the challenge and how bad Charlie Adam is. Therefore, it's time for a different attempt. My 3 players are:Screenshot_20190104-020420.thumb.jpg.ea1e7c40cde59770a33ae7f12c79fcff.jpgAn AP with 16 shooting? YES PLEASE!Screenshot_20190104-020431.thumb.jpg.023f5a00465a376e3dcad03a51c5a2be.jpgNew signing #1, a guy who dribbles fast.Screenshot_20190104-020442.thumb.jpg.fb7414e3b9839bc4cba7dffc6c05a2a9.jpgNew signing #2, fast and good in the air.

I was originally tempted to go for Mackay-Steven but his stamina is really poor for a winger. Jonny Williams was also an option (loved him on Sunderland Til I Die), might use him on future challenge.

Targets:

• Win all domestic cups.

• Win the league.

• Champions League group stage.

• 120 goals/assists between the 3 guys.

HERE. WE. GO. (eventually)

"Woahhh we're halfway there..."

On the save it is now January 19th, the day of our second fixture of the new year. So thought it was a nice time to recap. I forgot to take a transfer screenshot earlier, but I can't see myself doing any more business so...Screenshot_20190104-053828.thumb.jpg.d2a2e941c850f218e7b4d0821164e23a.jpgScreenshot_20190104-053840.thumb.jpg.a9045686ff606c9e99c37b0e2d98e65a.jpgScreenshot_20190104-053858.thumb.jpg.c79cd478f6715ecc02ead4fbc20ab66a.jpg

The targets I'd made were to win all domestic competitions and get to the Champions League group stage. In the Champions League, I beat Spartaks, Flora and APOEL to set up the last qualifier tie against PSV...Screenshot_20190104-053400.thumb.jpg.4be41d33b4f909202e27ffeb6e2996b4.jpgScreenshot_20190104-053405.thumb.jpg.d3222431c8e5ab4e54a0fa04398328e4.jpg3-1 defeat over the 2 legs. Unfortunate, but at least we had the Europa League. It wasn't the easiest of groups, but we managed to come top, with a 100% home record helping to pull us through.Screenshot_20190104-053436.thumb.jpg.daafbe910115e363d86b71be862846fe.jpgHowever, in the next round, we face the King's of the Europa League, Sevilla. 

Domestically, things are going very well. We flew through the Betfred Cup, dispatching of Hibernian in the final.Screenshot_20190104-053343.thumb.jpg.5b0fc79b08fa756ca4a800c39e2558e8.jpg

The league has been pretty comfortable too, with just one defeat. However, I would like to score alot more goals, even if the defence are playing extremely well.Screenshot_20190104-053328.thumb.jpg.ff62bd36a11e10fe9c45611f008c3536.jpg

To finish, here are the stats for my 3 main men! 

Screenshot_20190104-053252.thumb.jpg.d07bc8292e80274df4ae5a8add3f30ba.jpgScreenshot_20190104-053309.thumb.jpg.b8d4e4e507e55119926c02a81a144a80.jpgScreenshot_20190104-053234.thumb.jpg.d79947e9602bee9cf5f31f7c604acaed.jpg

All 3 players have scored 18 goals each, with Yeni and Jonathan adding 11 assists, compared to Tom's 6. This gives a total of 82 so far. I'm very happy with this, I was expecting to need the lower my target of 120, due to Rogic missing 6 weeks and Ngbakoto missing 3 due to injury.

Targets:

• 120 goals/assists between them.

• Win all domestic trophies.

• Give Sevilla a good fight.

Score so far: 82+48+32=162.

Finale.

So the season has ended, the smoke has cleared to reveal:Screenshot_20190110-140244.thumb.jpg.0375407118db4575e52c3bb6e14d3f53.jpgOnce again, the boys in green have triumphed in the Ladbrokes Premiership. On a side note, the league is mad with the ability to finish behind teams even with 5 more points. Mental.

Heartbreaking. Although our Scottish Cup Final was a much simpler affair:Screenshot_20190110-140225.thumb.jpg.ff20c16121d478dbd10c9cf9896103da.jpgEasy.

So how'd our 3 guys do?

Screenshot_20190110-140310.thumb.jpg.d2b9d730e1f8ea2166c33be08a75b7b1.jpgContributed to 46 goals on 62 games, seemed to disappear quite a lot in all honesty, but not a bad total.

Screenshot_20190110-140318.thumb.jpg.f354bdd8f70c1bfe2d3bdf4a8b2a7ab7.jpgOutstanding! 53 in 59 and dragged us through some games that were on a knife edge, including on a couple of occasions against arch-rivals Rangers.

He wasn't awful and injuries hit him more than the other two. Whilst shining in front of goal, it's shocking that he failed to register a single assist in the second half of the season. Poor performance from the Australian altogether.

46+53+38 = 137. Target 120? ✔️

Give Sevilla a fight? ✔️

Win all domestic competitions? ✔️

Total score: 

GD=60, PTS=89, Goals+Assists=137.

60+89+137= 286. Beatable but an okay first attempt with a poor side. Please add me to the leaderboard @Foxy

Great results as you didn't pick superstar players ;)

Top score in last year’s was with Celtic too.

Good attempt mate. Give it another go sometime and see if you can improve upon it.
