See this cave?

It is where I’ve been living for months. I’ve now plucked up the courage to don my shaggy animal hide and clutch my club before I returned to the real world... only to find we are no longer in the Palaeolithic era but instead in a time where electricity exists, folk travel to the moon, and an orange caricature of a man is President of the USA.

If I’m being honest, I moved house and haven’t had much time to play the game.

So upon my return I have wanted to start a career that I will enjoy, at a club I will enjoy conducting it at, with a young player I will enjoy playing with. Ahem.

I have opted for a Strikerless 1kc to kick off my challenge this year, which is very much territory that I know well.

The club I have chosen is...

Barcelona. Yep, that’s a photo of Xavi. I would have put a photo of Barcelona in, but why do that when you can show a photo of the best midfielder to ever grace the game. Yep, it is a big club, but I want to try to get another 1kc.

I will open the floor to guesses on who I am going to use... just in case anyone wants to play along. If not, then it’ll be the virtual version of an awkward long pause before I do the player reveal.

Whether this incarnation is up for a Strikerless 1kc or not... who knows? But let’s give it a go.

Thanks for reading!

😂 Thought he was a winger mate doh. 

I'm going to have a spectacularly wrong 2nd guess then at... Mohamed Ihatteren?

I’m not going to guess the player but I will wish you luck and ask if the cave you have been in was Wooky Hole?

Looking forward to this.

I’ll have a guess at Hannibal Mejbri?

Thanks Ian. Nope, but he was on my shortlist.

I’m not actually sure where that cave is from the photo, but Wooky Hole is awesome. That would be a great place to live.

Finally a career from Rob! I’m guessing maybe Naci Unuvar as your man

Good shout. He has joined us in the first season, but isn’t my player. I’m leave Itchy with him.

Good try, but sadly not. How did you get hold of my self-portrait?!?

Good luck Rob! Any clue on the nationality of your player?

The clue is that it may help give it away too much. And thanks mate.

I have a 'man cave' dedicated to you with a shrine and loads of photos, oh and a voodoo doll to make you do my bidding 😉

Nice challenge, Rob, you'll be stuck here for a few weeks 😆

I feel you're going Scot on this one. 

Thanks BG. This will go on a while, but no, not Scottish. Nor is his name Scot, either.

I will take my guess at a more experience player. Kai havertz?

Good shout, and I was tempted, but nope. I did sign Kai in season one too.

I would have guessed Ilaix, but I don't want to be "that guy" who posts guesses after others have already posted a thought. Anyway, GL with Ilaix, haven't used him but am sure he will be a beast!

Ah I see why his nationality would have been a giveaway now!

Not used him myself but looks a great player, look forward to this career!

Thanks. I did a spot of research and most places describe him as ‘the next Pogba’, which I cannot decide is a good thing or a bad thing. 🤣

Without spoiling too much, his first national callup (by the game, not by me) was for Spain 🙄, which made me giggle.

Player Reveal and Bonus Challenge

So, yeah, it is this boy:

The first season will also contribute towards the One Season Strikerless challenge. This includes two other players, who I have selected as:

A cracker on the cards. Can't wait for the first season. 

I wouldn’t get too excited, but thank you nonetheless!

He looks a fine prospect and I can’t say I’ve heard of him. Good luck again Rob.

Me neither, but he was stuck in the reserves and reported well, especially when factoring in a bit of google research.
