Career Larsson Rides Again back into Celtic Park: S4


 Share

Recommended Posts

As I have just posted this challenge I would like to show you guys my efforts on this one.

Not too many updates here as I am short on time and didn't take too many screenshots throughout the challenge.

So off to Celtic Park, we arrive and first thing to do is bring Larsson Jr in to try and follow his dad's footsteps.

With cashing in on Odsonne Edouard for £40m I had some money to reshape the squad. Larsson only cost £16.75m so not too bad for a decent looking front man

Team

I've opted for 4-1-2-1-2 with Forrest pushed out as an Inside Forward to helo support Larsson. 
Almada really lives up to his wonderkid billing as his stats shoot up given regular game time.
Stage is I think the first player I buy every game! I love him!
😍 Solid back four in place also.

Team Stats

So a comfortable league win here with only two defeats and over 100 goals.
A cup double to add for a nice opening triple. Snuck out of the Champs League group but fell at the first knockout.

Annual Awards

So Larsson picks up lots here but fails to capture the one I need as Almada takes the FW POTY award, what a talent he is by the way!

Larsson Jr

So, he has kicked on a little bit in terms of stats but nothing exceptional.

Nice opening season here with nearly a goal a game as he hits 49 goals, 24 in the league.

Nice opening season here, lets see if he can kick on in Season 2...

Fantastic start, he looks promising

Yeah, pleased with that...one more would have been nice.

Impressive start there. How’s Stage attributes? I’ve never seen him before

I will see if I can dig out a screenshot. He is B2B/CM. Not amazing stats but quickly becomes the heart of a team. Always an 8+ every match.

Nice start, he’s looking good as is your team with some nice players.

Thanks, didn't want to unbalance the squad too much and will try to use the youth players too.

Season 2

Sorry for the delay here, struggling for time to post this one.

Starting XI

So a few changes here as Forster went back to Southampton so Clark was brought in from St Johnstone. Ristovski took over at RB with Jullien replacing the Ajer who went to Red Bull for £50m+. Toure from Nantes is a decent BWM, my front three remained the same.

image.thumb.png.08e82366cd582f7762ea58629777f3f2.png

Team Stats

An easy league campaign plus the two cups for back to back trebles. Struggled in Europe, as always!

image.thumb.png.fcdc1ad5787b47684629e29776cb982f.png

Annual Awards

So this time Larsson grabs the players award I need plus top scorer and players' player.
Almada again taking the young player award.

Larsson Jr

Not really change in his stats, he has definitely leveled out. Can't seem to improve him at the moment.

image.thumb.png.9e9e9fb4b2d7d33d662b77369a99e0fc.png

An improvement in goals though as he blast 62 goals this season, 35 in the league. Lovely.

image.thumb.png.e600249171c23db9fabcbdc57e3d0a3a.png

image.thumb.png.de594a1cce7008fba80310b863e27b41.png

After two seasons, 111 goals is a decent return indeed.
Will be looking to push on in the next few season and boost that total with some better performances in Europe.

A great return. 

Those European games are a pain for Scottish clubs till you start building a top top squad but it'll come mate. 👍

Great going so far. It's great to have Larsson at Celtic - shame he's levelled out but still a good player and more than enough in Scotland.

I've been using Almada a lot lately, he's genuine class. How is Forrest going up forward? I always use him as a right winger and he does well here, but never used him like that, so I'm curious. Also, great idea lying the team out like that with the faces. 👍

Yeah, I find this every year though not just with Celtic but my goalkeeper will have shocker in one or two games and thats me out!

I agree, more than enough for Celtic. He is not a very consistent scorer either, having pockets of sensational form then nothing from him. Almada's stats just shoot right up. First time I have signed him, what a player! Forrest does well as an INF again, perfect for this league but I did find due to his age he doesn't kick on to that next level. I thought its good to show how the team develops.

Lovely return. I’ve only recently discovered Forrest as I’m using him in my ZZZ’s save and he seems very good. 

You do get a good few seasons from him at the start but then you can find better options I found.

Season 3

Starting XI

So a big change here as we go for a 4-3-3 to help support Larrson, I know we might lose some goals but I felt this formation creates more chances so hopefully it will make him more consistent. The back four was nearly fully replaced, Dalot on a free was a great deal. The Ox was also bought in very cheap. With Driussi and Klimala up front to support the main man.

image.thumb.png.866d7e1c9dfb53f41f83272eaa307a16.png

Team Stats

So we make it a treble treble here with league and both domestic cups. Better run the Champions League with a narrow quarter final defeat.

image.thumb.png.c68ea46cd479aa792962bff3c484668f.png

Manager Stats

Decent profit here in just three years.

image.thumb.png.9d8212693ddc8609a61d3ad4568dabc1.png

Annual Awards

So incredibly Klimala nabbed the FW Player of the Year award despite being the lowest scorer of my three front men and lowest Avr rating. Mejbri is turning into an elite AP in the centre of the pitch for me and overtook the Ox as the end of the season for the starting place.

image.thumb.png.615f975ad02395a1cdb8fab144785273.png

Larsson Jr

So again no improvement at all in his stats, still decent enough though.

image.thumb.png.043dd48c10b1f8df0382ad16aa1b3f01.png

The change of formation didn't really affect him too much as only dropped a few goals to 59 for the season.

image.thumb.png.2683dea1a95653986fc846703bee16a8.png

image.thumb.png.a0eab3411e6b72bd3d407bb26921c126.png

So cracking along nicely here and should break the 200 goals next season (barring injury)
I just need to pick up that other Player of the Year Award.

Thanks for reading.

Some solid players brought in there. He didn’t even fall much in term of goals since it’s only about 3 and also less games played.

Hopefully that change in formation helps you out long term mate but that another solid season.

Well done.  👍

Yeah, I have definitely turned into Ranieri, the tinker man with this years game. I know I should let my tactics settle for a bit!
It changes again next season... 🤣

Really solid season again and nice end total for the main man. Good luck for next season.

Thanks, always looking for perfection!

Season 4

Starting XI

Another change of shape here, trying to get the wing backs to create down the flanks we switch to a 5-3-2 formation. Mejbri is now the main AP as the Ox was ok but got a decent offer for him and felt it was the right move. Diaz was bought in at the back to add some ball playing.

image.thumb.png.84a2f1ea77cdac7b51dbba4e8b4e581e.png

Season Stats

Just the double to show this season as we lost to the old enemy in the Scottish Cup final.

image.thumb.png.f8402bba9aa0b9b7471828b08f13e279.png

image.thumb.png.cc6476a007c9c8f9260296bea3b67026.png

Awards

So my formation plans backfired here as Driussi takes all the player awards! 😠
Mejbri had a great season and picks up the young player award.

image.thumb.png.c93221e26f64a4ba07f3707d214d3799.png

Manager Stats

Nearly £500m in sales in just 4 seasons.

image.thumb.png.ac1e289272848b142dd704d3992623d8.png

Larsson Jr

No change again here from Larsson. A bit up and down stats wise all season.

image.thumb.png.3bcda8f9e2d7d8e37d609f411c2625d2.png

He had a few injuries this season which restricted his games so goals was down to 46 this season but still more than one a game.

image.thumb.png.2bc75aa223cec0873220657338aac8fe.png

So he is over the 200 mark now and 100 league goals. We should hit his old mans goals next season as his total was 242 goals.

Another great season, wonder what formation you will bring next season! 😄

Anyway, he's doing really well for a player that's not quite top level attribute wise. You're getting the best out of him!

Yeah, he is plodding along. I think I just need to accept he is a decent striker but not world class.

Who knows! I think I pull the trigger too early on some tactics. Need to let them settle down and bring in the right players.

Squeezing it out of him! 😆
