Career My attempt at the Chelsea Wonderkid Challenge


 Share

Recommended Posts

 

 

 

My first challenge of FMM 21 and what a challenge it is, credit to @Scratch for creating this one, it bucks the trend and tasks you with getting the best out of 4 players simultaneously, something almost all of us aren't used to, this tipped my excitement for going with this one first and with the new dynamics system, I was intrigued to see how a squad exodus would affect the team? How long would it take them to gel and adapt to the league aswell as the system(s) I deployed? The questions are asked, we need answers! Here's how the season went:

 

Transfers:

12 new faces arrived at the Bridge, (well it was actually 11, I'll explain later) Anyway, Joe Gomez, ticked all the boxes for a top drawer BPD, Gaya for 64 mil, bit expensive for a backup, but if you've got it, flaunt it! Ederson arrives to play Sweeper Keeper and also at the same time, weakened Man City as they never thought to buy a replacement. The rest will rotate in and out of team as and when needed... soooo the blunder, I signed Marcus Edwards thinking I had deployed an IF on both flanks, but no, I was playing a Left IF and a Right Winger, with Marcus Edwards being left footed, he didn't fit either position and consequently after licking my wounds of their idiocy, I then had to offload Marcus and 10 mil for Zaha. Well done me! 

Out:

Despite all the marguee signings Chelsea made this season IRL, their squad is filled with mediocre players being paid WAY too much.

3 trophies bagged, just the useless Carabao Cup that we couldn't conquer. 

 

95 points and 67 GD= 162.

 

The (ex) Wonderkid(s):

Timo Werner:

Christian Pulisic:

Kai Havertz:

Werner: 28G and 12A=40

Abraham: 24G and 13A=37

Pulisic: 13G and 14A=27

Havertz: 21G and 21A=42

 

Im really happy with how they performed this season, I had them all focused on stamina training all year round and for the last 3 months of the season I dropped all of their training intensity to low from normal as the schedule got busier I really felt this helped. 

 

Havertz was the best performer over all, Werner being the one with gold in his boots and Pukisic was mightily dissapointing, I had him first choice on corners with Havertz second choice but a lot of games seemed to pass him by as he notched the worst overall total and only just recorded more assists than Abraham by 1 and Werner by 2.

 

Totals:

(Pts/GD/TiWe/TaAb/ChPu/KaHa)

95+67+40+37+27+42= 308.

 

Really enjoyed this challenge and I'm happy to break the 300 point mark, I'll definitely be giving this a go in the future, once I've done some tweaking and tampering to hopefully get some more output from Pulisic. 

 

Thanks for reading. 😊👍

Thanks mate, yeah poor Edwards spent about 4 days at Stamford Bridge, might be a world record 😂 though Zaha technically cost 50 mil which I think is about what you'd expect to pay so their is light at the end of the tunnel.

Great job mate, added you to the leaderboard. Funny about Pulisic, quite a few people have found him to underperform in this. I think next time I try it I'll go with Mount instead of him...

Cheers mate, I think that's my plan also when I go again, I thought at first maybe my tactic drowned him out but with the other 3 all getting in the box I really expected Pulisic to pick up a hefty amount of assists crossing from the right, I didn't watch much if any highlights though so I can't be certain of anything.

Yeah, I had him do really well for me a couple of times in FMM20 but that was before he was at Chelsea. Maybe he's more set now and I got more development out of him in 20 - though he still looked good by the end of my save. So not sure.
