Career Rob tries a DT - Complete, thank goodness

[Rob]

So, a couple of things:

• I chose Morgan Rogers and Mason Greenwood. Having not doing a DT before, I just wanted to get it done and dusted with two excellent players;
• I am PSG. I have spent a lot of money;
• I am ten seasons in;
• I can’t be bothered to post updates for each season, so we are jumping in at season ten;
• I actually don’t like DTs. They annoy me. I have messed around with my formation all through and finally settled on something, which is why my results vary. I have no attention span;
• I got the England job early on;
• Wrestlemania Part 1, in front of the empty crowd, was weird last night. The Boneyard match was interesting though;
• I have all the usual screenshots saved, in case anyone is bored enough isolating and wants to see them;
• I plan to carry this save on afterwards with another career/challenge;
• I have absolutely no emotional attachment to this career, bar wanting to complete my first out and out DT. I may carry Greenwood on to a 1kc after

So this is where we are at:

And here is what the players look like:

Two excellent players, and two seasons to go until it is completed when they will be 28 and 29.

Thanks for reading possibly my most lazy FMM career thread ever.

Lots of love,

Rob

Well, that was a bit strange 😂

Considering you hate DT''s you have pretty much had this one sorted bud. Nicely done, so bar career threatening injuries you have this sewn up.

Love you to Rob 😉

Thought I'd slept thru the entire movie but luckily just woke up in time 😁

They’ve done well and should be fine for the DT.

I may watch the wrestling actually saying as everything else is cancelled.

Thanks Woody. I dare say real world events have killed my enthusiasm for this.

Thanks Ian. I’ve got an hour of the second night to watch last. All a bit bizarre really. You realise how much the crowd actually matters.

Getting to 10 seasons in is an achievement in itself then as personally I need that attachment within the first season otherwise it’s not going any further.

Anyway they are doing great and it looks like it is just a matter of time before you get the DT.

You have pretty much spent a decade on this save so excellent work Rob. DT is just round the corner.

Thanks mate. I have rattled through it a bit cos it is so boring. I’m doing a career with Spurs yet that I will connect with more.

Season 11

1,114 now in total.

Both players are idiots:

86 needed next season, which should be easy to do. I’m going to get 1.2k and then test a few things for my next career.

Thanks!

[Rob]

Season 12

And 86 was achieved. Figured I may as well post this immediately.

1,202 in total. I then spent the rest of the season messing around with a few youngsters and tactics.

DT, on its own and not part of a TT, finally done which was my target. 

Thanks to anyone for commenting. I apologise for the complete lack of enthusiasm, but... meh.

Congrats on the DT Rob! Plenty left in them as well if another target grabbed you. 

[Woody]

Easy peasy 😆

Thanks Smog. I am at the point with the save that I actually hate it. Time to move on. I find FMM funny like that. I did enjoy it for the first seasons though.

It’s easy when you use PSG and two of the best strikers around. My next career is with The Mighty Spurs. Thanks for your kind words Mr Teacher.

Look forward to it mate.

Love Morgan Rogers, congrats on the DT

[Kanegan]

Congrats on DT mate. Spurs career should be interesting.

DT done and dusted. Fine achievement Rob. 

Tempted to try and hit 1500? I think I already know the answer to that 😆

Cheers. I am going to revisit this I a few years and see where he is in real life. I find that kind of thing fascinating.

Thanks billy. Had they managed to take penalties I think I would have had 1.5k. 🤣

[FuddledFox]

Well done Rob 👍🏻

Tell me about it, all three of my lads miss more pens than they score!!!

Thanks Mr Fox. I think it seems to be a 'thing' this year that strikers aren't good at penalties.  My two lads are world class players, so it seems frankly nuts that they fail in that area.

Thanks. PSG and two worldies. It should have been a lot more 😁

[billy2shots]

I find my ‘young strikerss’ miss about 75% of pens. They (3 of them) then get the negative bad at pens message in the coach report. When they are at their peak, mine were scoring nearer 75% of pens and the message went away. As they aged, 31 plus, they started missing 75% of pens again. 

Seemed a little too manufactured to me. Hundreds missed over a career
