I’m not sure what I’m looking for in that screenshot as he just looks like the standard SPL quality striker to me :P

I had him still scoring for England at that point. You should have seen him a couple of seasons later!

Scott Brown is raging and decides to go over to Foxy’s to teach him a lesson... 

 

Then he sees shooting practice and he realises that the Fox was right.

Great work though, this is just incredible to watch.

Season 9

After the first few seasons when Mitro was hitting near or over a 100 goals a season I did think he could have done a 10 season 1kc but a slow down in recent seasons means he has 240 goals to get going into this season.

His pace is dropping like a stone now and worryingly his aerial is going down as well but he still looks well capable of scoring plenty of goals. It says his stamina has grown but it is still the same as the end of last season but it had dropped 1 point then went back up again perhaps because I have 2 fitness coaches now in an attempt to slow down his physical decline.

I continued with my policy of subbing him as often as I can in the 2nd half of games in an attempt to keep him as fresh as possible as the season goes on. He actually made 2 more appearances than he managed last season and his AvR was slightly higher as well.

His goal total remained the same as last season though as he smashed in 85 goals for the season.

This leaves him with 155 goals to get. That means we are technically within two seasons of reaching our target if he can hit at least 77 goals next season he would have 78 or less goals to get in season 11. 

This isn’t factoring in the fact he is declining and that could get much quicker so although those totals seem reasonable based on what he has done so far it might be harder than it seems. Three seasons might be more realistic as that works out as a 53 then two 51 goal seasons.

Whichever way we look at it we don’t have far to go but with 2 years left on his contract I am keeping my fingers crossed he will sign an extension and won’t go and retire in the next 2 seasons.

Any Other Business

We did the clean sweep this season with Mitro leading the way.

Transfers

There isn’t a great deal to see here as we only signed one player.

With the VPL out the way I hope I will have more chance to play this now and get Mitro’s final seasons player out hopefully with a 1kc at the end of them.

Another excellent season. It’ll be nice to get this one done and dusted and smash out an overall impressive gpg too.

He’s on 1.63 gpg at the moment but I expect that to drop before this career is done.

Oh this is a done deal even with the decline.

An 85 is awesome mate so well done.

Depends if I can either get it done in 2 seasons or more likely get him to extend his contract.

Looking really good now and hopefully you can get it done in the two seasons.

Hope so but it really depends on if he doesn’t decline to much over those 2 seasons.

Well, now you've reminded me of my other career - you know, where Colidio retired 7 goals short of the target (1.5K). Don't worry, I'm sure that won't happen to you. Probably... 😰

Apart from that though, great season!

Season 10

After about 3 seasons of this save I thought I might have been able to complete this 1kc in 10 seasons but then this is a different style of 1kc as normally with a young player you have a few seasons as he builds up and improves before he hits the big numbers but with Mitro he was 23 turning 24 and hit his peak straight away. That means the slow seasons are coming now instead of early on.

We went into this season needing 155 goals so the goal aim was high 70s that would give us a chance to complete next seasons. 

As I mentioned last update one concern I had was Mitro’s contract as he has 2 seasons left which is great if he completes in that time but not so good if he needs an extra season but he goes and retires.

I tried to offer him a contract in the summer between seasons 9 and 10 but he wasn’t having any of it.

E888C71C-C5D0-4198-B423-C10AB2899CED.thumb.png.76662d1b9bfde458964d40a0e1e46eac.png

I decided to take drastic action! 

In my Teutonic Treble save last year I had to sell Amiri as he wouldn’t sign a new deal but the I immediately bought him back when he left. I decided I would do the same with Mitro in the hope that he would then sign a longer deal to resign for us.

I offered him out for free to tempt someone to pay his hefty wages despite him heading over the hill but with a cunning plan for when I buy him back. Arsenal were the team that took the bait and he signed for them at the end of June. The following day I offered Arsenal his value which was £25m which they accepted straight away.

He signed for us on the 1st of July and because of the 50% sell on fee I put in the deal I got half of my £25m back and Mitro signed a 5 year deal when he resigned 🙂

Everyones a winner as Arsenal have £12.5m for nothing and we have Mitro for another 5 season if needed.

This all meant that his contract was a weight of my mind as the season started but his declining attributes are becoming my worry now. He still looks good except for his pace but that is an important part of his game as he uses it to get on the end of crosses in front of defenders. Even so he looks like he still has plenty of goals left in him.

The target to complete in the next 2 seasons was to get around 77 goals this year but unfortunately Mitro feel some way short of that total with a combination of tiredness and his lack of pace being the reason. He simply isn’t as sharp any more and as the season went on he scored less and less but 61 is still a good total and means he has just under 100 goals left to score.

So it looks like it could be at least 2 more seasons to hit the magic mark. In season 11 I will be aiming to at least get 47 goals as that is the half way point but fingers crossed we get near to 60 again.

Any Other Business 

It was another successful season with the wingers and midfield starting to make up for the lack of Mitro goals as well as his understudy Cotila.

Transfers

A couple of wingers and a midfielder joined this season alongside a fella called Mitrovic.

It would have been good to get a few more goals and give us a chance to complete next season but it’s great to be into the final 100 goals needed, plus a new contract for Mitro and we can almost smell the finishing line. Let’s hope Mitro can keep the attributes he has a we can finish in some style.

Thanks for reading and all comments are appreciated.

Thanks for the comments guys. It felt horrible offering him out for sell but as he wasn’t saying he would retire at the end of his current deal I was fairly confident I could get him straight back as financially it would never be much of an issue. As for the 50% sell on us Foxes are a cunning breed when we need to be and it was the cherry on the top that it all paid off.

It would make for an interesting and entertaining update if that did happen tbf but they make them tough in Serbia so hopefully he will be ok.

Season 11

We headed into season 11 needing 94 goals to complete the 1kc and Mitro with 4 years on his contract to do it. My hope was we would hit near 60 as we did last season leaving a fairly simply total for season 12 and then add a few more on top of the 1000 as well.

The decline continues at a pace as he lost 2 points on both his shooting and movement this season and he is now down to only 6 for pace 😱

Despite the decline he started the season well and on the 4th of November he scored his 999th and 1000th goals in a 2-0 win over Vigo 🎉 🎉🎉

So job done then let’s pack up and go hom....wait what?

You mean he has to score all 1000 goals under my management?!?

Bollocks! Oh well just another 74 to go then.

As you can see he started the season in fine form scoring at 1.42 goals a game which if he maintains would bring a total of 71 goals if he could play 50 games all season. Unfortunately he couldn’t play 50 games and he couldn’t maintain the GpG ratio either as fitness issues killed the 2nd half of the season for him.

He did manage to finish at just over a goal a game in 45 appearances so that wasn’t too bad and another season like this will get the job done.

It wasn’t such a successful season this year as we went out in the cup semi final stage with an underperforming Mitro unable to get the goals to take us through but we did win everything else.

Just a few regens joining to bring some new energy into what was an aging squad.

I’m pretty hopeful that Mitro can get the 46 goals we need in season 12 but with Mitro’s goal totals declining every season I have this horrible feeling he might not quite do it and we will go into season 13 needing like 2 goals for the 1k.

Shame about fitness but another good season. Job done in the next one.

Just out of interest, who has the most assists in your time at Barca? Dilro?

Yep it’s Dilro but he won’t be threatening the top of the assists leaderboard because he played second fiddle to Douglas Costa for the first few seasons of the save. Not sure exactly how many he has but all will be revealed when the save comes to an end.

You had me going there at the beginning as I was sat there wondering how he’s got 94 goals by early November.😯

Full confidence now and it’s been interesting following especially as you’ve played through the updates but you’ve saw it through.👍
