Report · Posted November 25, 2020 (edited) I just can’t help myself can I and I thought there be no better way to try and get stuck right in with FMM21 than a triple threat as I massively enjoyed this one last year, so we go again, did well on last years but no idea how this year will go 😬 The Team So as you can see I am taking over from this man, Neil Lennon, a very angry man at times, I do hope I don’t end up making these faces at my screen as the career goes, but we’ll see. I love managing in Scotland, and it’s an easyish one to start with. The Players Sebastiano Esposito So we start with a man I know well, not sure how he will turn out on this years but he has decent stats, especially for Scotland, he is brought in to be the main man hopefully. Youssouph Badji Never ever heard of this boy but he’s got decent stats, which I hope will only improve for sure, aerial at 16 already is great and he’s got speed. Kaio Jorge Never ever heard of this boy but he’s got decent stats, dejavu? Hoping this young Brazilian who I didn’t think I’d get as he has no caps for Brazil but once I appealed he came through. Conclusion So really looking forward to this one as I have no idea how these players will turn out as it’s so early on with the game coming out. I will be back in a bit with my transfers and the tactic. If you have made it this far, well done to you, means you can read.

Report · Posted November 25, 2020 Season 1 Hello and welcome to the first season of the delightful career I have planned for you all. Was hoping I could settle for a tactic that would score plenty but go through our main strikers. I got to say I fiddled with the tactic all season, I never want to see how many the strikers score and look right at the end, so I was fiddling when maybe I didn’t need too. Transfers Spoiler Very happy with the first season transfer business and I think it’s a better job than I did last seasons game, even though less came in, we also made a big impressions through the affiliate market, sending 9 players out on loan and some of them really improving out on loan. Results So a fantastic first season in charge, loads of goals and we were really dominant in the league, our squad is already a lot stronger than others in Scotland, so could be loads of goals to come hopefully! Manager Profile Spoiler So a great goals per game ratio in the first season, hopefully it can only get better, it’s all about how many goals went to the main boys though? Youssouph Badji Spoiler Kaio Jorge Spoiler Sebastiano Esposito Spoiler Totals Season 1 Badgi - P 56 S 38 Jorge - P 49 S 33 Esposito - P 55 S 61 SEASON 1 TOTAL - P 160 S 132 So not a bad start at all really, boys really performed well, I tried to play them every game but injuries here and there but nothing massive, hopefully as they improve this will only Improve.

Report · Posted November 27, 2020 Season 2 Welcome back to the second season of my triple threat delight. We had a great first season and we were hoping to do the same this season. Transfers Spoiler So we brought in some real good young players, hate selling Frimpong as he was already up there with the best RB’s on the game already. I seen how good Gallagher went in my Chelsea season after just one season so I really wanted him at Celtic, he hasn’t improve yet, but I’m sure he will. Tactic Not going to go much in to this, but it’s the same set up as last seasons triple threat I made, it didn’t seem as strong as last year but I don’t know if that’s me being OTT. I did notice though as I only play one centre back, that the relationships don’t go as high as there is no connection between some players as they don’t connect. So even though we had a good season as seen below, I will be creating a totally new tactic and try and get my team all connected as 1 ❤️ Results So looking at this maybe the season went better than I was thinking typing up there, but I still felt like we had way more to give in games and we weren’t creating as many chances as I like in some games, I’m always chasing perfection, but maybe this is as good as it gets. We need to win a European Cup soon if I want to keep the players happy, can’t afford there wages. Manager Profile Spoiler So very close to 4 goals per game which is great but I still want more 🤣 Youssouph Badji Spoiler Kaio Jorge Spoiler Sebastiano Esposito Spoiler Season 2 Badgi - P 49 S 27 Jorge - P 57 S 35 Esposito - P57 S 72 Season Total - P 163 S 134 Career Totals Badgi - P 105 S 65 Jorge - P 106 S 68 Esposito - P 112 S 133 GRAND TOTAL - P 323 S 266 Well another decent season, still expecting more off them though, Esposito is an absolute baller already and the other two have great stats as well, like I said earlier I am going to work on a new system even though they are scoring a lot, may well end up going back to this tactic. But we shall see. Thanks for reading, your comments are more than welcome 😁 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Report · Posted November 28, 2020 Season 3 Hello and welcome back for the third season of the Triple Threat Delight. So after having quite a few successful tactics last year I was not struggling but was still trying to find the perfect way of getting all the goals to come from the front 3, let’s see how we got along. Transfers Spoiler So some nice business, we managed to sort out goalkeeping department for the remainder of this challenge hopefully as Mesiler is young and class. Lots of players have improved big time by going out on loan, I loaned Turnbull out but then sold Moriba so brought him back and he looks quality, 20 in passing now! Tactic Spoiler So this is the base I used all season but as you can imagine, the player roles, attack and shape were changed throughout, for now this is what it will stay as, I actually stuck with this for last 10 games without change, at the end of the challenge I will release this tactic as I can’t imagine me using it again this year. Results So another fine season domestically as we run rampant in the league, but again 3 year on the trot we go out in the first knockout stages, wish is very disappointing as we dominated both games again. Hopefully next year will be our year, we’ve had a tough tie each year. Manager Profile Spoiler Well out GPG is massive, love that it’s above 4 now, hoping I can keep it this way going in to the 1000 goal challenge as well, not conceding too many either which is great. Youssouph Badji Spoiler Kaio Jorge Spoiler Sebastiano Esposito Spoiler Squad Stats Spoiler Season 3 Badgi - P 56 S 31 Jorge - P 57 S 38 Esposito - P56 S 79 Season Total - P 169 S 148 Career Totals Badgi - P 161 S 96 Jorge - P 163 S 106 Esposito - P 168 S 212 GRAND TOTAL - P 492 S 414 So a good season for the boys and an increase, this season was always a risk as I went away from my older tactic and went for something new, hoping they just score more from here.

Report · Posted November 29, 2020 Great work mate and strange old tactic, but love all the connections there. Just starting another save and gonna go with a tactic where I have one at the back and the lack of connection does worry me a bit. Not ready to give up on it yet, but will probably experiment like you've done sooner or later. Fantastic score from the lads, especially Esposito. This is gonna be a big score! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Report · Posted November 29, 2020 Well after a good start to this one. I’m afraid it’s ending prematurely, all 3 are asking for moves away, wanting 325k a week to stay, I can offer max 100k. So not much I can do, I could possibly switch clubs, but for now it’s on the back burner, may be revisited. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just have to make as much profit on players as I can so I can get that wage budget as high as possible, managed to get two of them to sign new 5 year deals, Esposito won’t yet, I can offer him 230k a week but he wants 320, one more good sale on a player and I’ll be fine, he’s fine for the time being though. Did get offered the Barca job which means I could have maybe bought all 3 with them, but I’m going to stick for now. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Report · Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) Season 4 Well hello there, as I said earlier I thought I would return to this career, so the last couple of days I haven’t posted an update on one of my many careers, because I had been testing a few things out, mostly to see how many goals I could score, when I seen the results I was getting I thought this career would be perfect to implement my new tactic. Transfers Spoiler So I wanted to get Esposito to sign a new deal and I thought only way to do it is to make money, not possible yet, we still need to sell. Connor Gallagher went in a straight swap with Sander Berge, which doesn’t show annoyingly. Tactics Spoiler Ultra attacking, with the hope now that I have 5 in the middle, they won’t take goals off the front 3, it worked great with my test with PSG and I think I’ll use this for the Barca one as I try it again. Betfred Cup Spoiler So an expected cup run which ended in a win, not much to say, the quality of the team was far above anyone in Scotland. Scottish Cup Spoiler So another day another cup, like I said earlier when you go Celtic you’re doing it as an easy career which you want full of goals and boy are we doing that. Scottish Premier League Spoiler So don’t think I’ve ever had a goal difference as good in my FMM days but I’m over the moon with it, granted if I was in a harder league it would be nothing like that. Champions League Spoiler So we win the champions league in a thriller of a game, our champions league campaign was mad, we scored 33 goals in the group stage, I wish I took a screenshot but I forgot 😥 Manager Profile Spoiler Crazy amount of goals being scored here at Celtic, I had a very high number last year with my triple threat at PSG and it makes me think if I chose Scotland last year it would have been similar. Nearly at the 1,000 mark as well now. Badgi Spoiler Jorge Spoiler Esposito Spoiler Season Totals Badgi - P 61 G 34 Jorge - P 57 G 38 Esposito - P 59 G 118 Season Total - 190 Career Totals Badgi - P 222 G 130 Jorge - P 220 G 144 Esposito - P 227 G 330 Grand Total P 669 G 604 So I’ve finally made it to the 100 club and comfortably with Esposito, but to be honest I was a bit embarrassed to post this as the number of goals was so mental, made me look back at my PSG triple threat, I was getting big numbers but shared out more and In a better league so maybe these numbers could be expected but I’m over the moon with these numbers. Especially as I’ve never had someone score over a 100. Thanks for reading, your comments are welcomed, actually can’t wait to start the new season now EDIT: Squad Stats Spoiler Forgot to post this, don’t think I’ve ever had so many people get so many assists before, was truly a wonderful watch 😍 Edited December 8, 2020 by RichD 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
