Recommended Posts

Saying as I don’t think I can see your name on any of the leaderboards why not give this one a go?


There’s loads of ways to go about this challenge so I’ll leave that up to you, so you can approach it how you wish.

Thanks Smog. I was waiting for this one frankly for a long time after seeing all you people hitting some fantastic points for this challenge. Thinking of going strikerless for this.

                                                                  Monologues of a Time Traveller 

                                                                                                     Entry #4

 

So, after finishing my latest project, i was weirdly happy. Sure, we did not exactly filled up the trophy cabinet like in the previous cases but there was a wild satisfaction in leading a bunch of unknown French players in Toons jersey to take on England's best, a feeling that satisfied me most. Now that my work was over, i had to get ready for my next mission which was suggested by one of the greatest minds of the Hall of Vibe-mortals, (a sanctuary dedicated to all things football) @Ian and when you get suggested an objective which has been dominated by Vibe's best, namely @Ian, @Rob, @Foxy and @smoggy90, you need to be afraid!!!

Very Very afraid!!!

But i got support from my ally and friend @Rob, also a legendary Vibe-mortal and the finest in the lands of strikerless with whom i share a strange fascination of playing with no strikers, i decided this could be my only chance at salvaging something out of nothing. I looked far and wide and scratched my head day and night trying to unearth some new gems and then finally i got it, in the beautiful country of Scotland.

 

So, presenting the Scottish Invasion at Amsterdam:

Challenge - Striker Peak Years by @Foxy

 

Summary:

1. I am going for the overall, non-striker and 3 players combined leaderboards.

2. This will run for 5 seasons and the total goals & assists by all three players at the end of 5 seasons will count for the various leaderboards.

 

Prediction Contest (for Season 1 & 2)

1. Who will score the highest number of goals in the first 2 seasons combined and how much will he score??

2. Who will get the highest number of assists in the first 2 seasons combined and how many will he get??

 

 

Thanks for following.

Nice! I really like Ryan Christie, use him a lot at Celtic. For my predictions, I'll go with:

1. Armstrong with 79 goals

2. Christie with 44 assists

Great pick of players mate and a very nice league to play.

Everyone is going for Armstrong understandably so I’m going to mix it up a bit;

1. Christie 77
2. Armstrong 64

Yeah, that's a great start, but boy are my predictions looking bad. Christie always has a low goals to assists ratio in my system, so that's surprised me a bit! But anyway, the players look great for that league so I'm guessing there's a big score on the way

Brilliant opening season Kane.

Christie is looking very good. I’ve never used him before but I remember I nearly bought him on one of my recent careers just can’t remember which one. He’s doing the business here though as are the other two.

Keep it up.

Thanks guys. I had Christie numerous times before mainly for his assists so i wanted to see if he can score the goals. So, for the majority of the season, Christie played as a treq. in the middle flanked by Fraser and Armstrong on either sides. That's why he got the most goals.

Hoping for Season 2 to be more of the same or better. 😃

Camavinga was someone who i wanted to use for a long time but have not done yet until now. Ryan comes in as our first choice goalie to replace the outgoing Onana.

Good season mate but like you say maybe try switching them see if it impacts on your output. Happy with my bonus point!

Im going to say 9 hat tricks and 183 goals over the next two seasons.

Our woeful run in the cups continue as it was PSV again who dumped us out of the Dutch Cup. They have now done it thrice in 3 seasons. While we regularly beat them in the Eredivisie, they beat us regularly in the Dutch Cup. No luck in the CL either as this time it was Man City who defeated us.

You can swap Christie's position but you can't take the goals out of him. Still the highest goal scorer playing as a right IF. So, swapping positions was not such a great idea after all as we had a major drop in points.

Ok, time to go back to the original positions.

Oh dear. Not a bad season by any means, but you better pick it up a little next season so I don't look like a fool (again)... 🤣

Nah, really solid season and I find it so interesting that Christie can't stop scoring...

Christie is on fire for you! Loads of attributes stuck on 14, doesn't seem to matter as he's tearing it up regardless. (but everyone loves looking at the greens) 😊

Thanks guys. It's really disturbing to see Christie stuck in 14 for what seem like ages but surprisingly that has not hindered his abilities at all. But where would he have been if his attributes all turned green ?? 🤔

Yeah, I've used him quite a bit (because I've used Celtic quite a bit). He's a good player but not great. Sometimes he ends up like he did here, other times he gets more green. He always performs relatively well for me regardless - that's in the SPL though, not sure he'd cut it in the EPL. I guess Holland is not the strongest league, so probably makes sense he does well here.

Another great season mate. Too bad the CL is not being co-operative. Hope you get it next year. Christie great again, but Armstrong a little off. Only needs to get through one more season though. Good luck with it.

136 points for the last season.
