Thanks Foxy. Good luck with that.

So, next up in my badge collection series comes no. 4:

 

So, i am managing this one in my beloved club Liverpool but there are no usual suspects for the wise men.

In fact, i sold all three of Firmino, Mane and Salah.

Instead, i am using guys who has given me joy in the previous editions of game at some point.

Wise Man 1 - Prince of Italy and star of my FMM 19 Strikerless 1.5K

 

Wise Man 2 - Prince of Morocco and star of my FMM 20 Goal-A-Minute Challenge

 

Wise Man 3 - King of Colombia

 

We are off to a good start though with Jesus:

 

3 hattricks in the space of 4 games. Hopefully, we keep this up. I will be back with the full update soon.

 

Thanks for viewing.

[RichD]

Love the player choices, so different to what the rest of us have gone for! And what a start from Jesus, hope he keeps it up for you mate 😁

[Rob]

Blimey. Bossing that one so far. 
 

[Ian]

Good luck.

[Kanegan]

Thanks @RichD @Rob @Ian. The season update follows:

Transfers Out

Spoiler

Transfers In

Spoiler

Apart from my 3 wise men and Jesus, brought in some other players, especially SMS, Pasalic and Skriniar who added quality to the squad.

 

Manager History

We missed out on the Carabao Cup but won everything else. The goals scored were pretty less but there is another side to it which i will reveal later.

 

League Performance

Spoiler

Jesus easily winning the Golden Boot while our players featured in the top 3 in assists.

 

Cup Runs

Spoiler

Lost in the Carabao semis to Martial inspired ManU but won others easily with either Zaniolo or Jesus featuring in goals.

 

Hattricks

Spoiler

Jesus scored 6 hattricks in the campaign.

 

Tactics

Spoiler

Again, just tweaking the player roles and positions of my base tactic for these badges.

CHALLENGE SCORE

133 points, which i am pretty happy with.

 

Now, the reason i was happy with low GPG was because it meant Jesus had scored the lion's share of goals. So, this is my official Season 1 entry into @FuddledFox The Percentage Game Challenge.

 

Season 1 Percentage

 

Using https://percentagecalculator.net/

We are just a touch above 50.

Will be back with Season 2 of the same.

 

Thanks for viewing.

A brilliant score Kane. Well done.

Good idea to carry it on for the percentage challenge and good luck for season two of that.

Thanks Ian. Need to tweak the player roles a bit more to get a higher percentage. 

[Scratch]

Wow mate, that's a really great score!

I'm especially impressed because of the low GPG and the fact that most of the goals/assists came from the right people - that's what I was trying to do with my first 4 attempts but couldn't get anywhere near that! Love it. 🙌

Thanks man. I was wary of playing Zaniolo as a Treq. as the role has been a major blockbuster in this edition and Zaniolo is always a beast but it paid off in the end. I am playing Season 2 for the Percentage Challenge to see whether i can get Jesus goal scoring percentage higher or not.

[FuddledFox]

Nice to see another % attempt and that’s a good start which I’m sure you will build on in season 2.

Thanks Foxy. I managed to tweak my tactic even more but don't know whether it will help me or not.

Percentage Game Season 2

Following on from last season, we take a look at how we went in Season 2

Transfers Out

Spoiler

Transfers In

Spoiler

Manager History

We won all the trophies that were missing from our kitty while we lost the PL, CL and FA Cup.

 

League Performance

Spoiler

Cup Runs

Spoiler

So, Jesus scoring in all the finals that we won while nobody scored in the games we lost. That's what i was looking for.

 

I stifled my team even more, robbing them of the goal scoring roles and changing them all to playmakers:

Spoiler

Just ignore the players as they were heavily rotated and i used Zaniolo sparingly as he was the main goal scoring threat but it paid off in the end:

Except for Jesus, nobody else reached double figures. Mission accomplished!!!

Awards

Spoiler

I managed to win myself a World Coach of the Year.

 

Gabriel Jesus

His goals came down definitely as i tweaked my tactics but still 52 goals was the biggest pie of the total.

 

Manager Profile

So, 2nd season we scored 231 - 139 = 92 goals.

 

Season 2 Percentage

So, we increase our percentage to 56.52 in the second season.

 

Overall

Jesus scored 122 goals in the two seasons.

So,

Final Percentage = 52.81%

Very happy with the final score as my tactics paid off. @FuddledFox, if you can add my score to the 2 season leaderboard.

 

Thanks for viewing. 

Badge 5 will follow next.

Thanks guys.

[Kanegan]

So, continuing my badge of honour series, next up is:

 

 

So, for this one, i had to kill my ego and manage Man U.

Things did not go well in the first:

We lost a freak game to West Ham in the Carabao Cup ending our campaign in it.

 

He managed a hattrick early in the campaign.

 

Halfway stage in the Premier League and we are:

We are sitting second behind Man City.

 

Bruno

Such tasty looking stats. If only he would have been anywhere else !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Just 2 goals remaining to achieve the benchmark.

 

Will be back with the final update soon.

 

Thanks for viewing.

[RichD]

Great start there Kane, should be a very good total! He is such a beast, perfect stats!

[broodje kip]

Good start that. How funny it’s always Newcastle 😂

Ok time for final update.

Put all my eggs in one basket as i brought in Alaba for 165 mil. He was brilliant in the 1st half of the campaign but then he got injured for a freaking 5 months and our campaign went for a toss.

Manager History

Very pathetic campaign. Winning the CL got us some respite.

 

League Performance

 

Cup Runs

Spoiler

Bruno saved us in the final of CL when he delivered a timely hattrick against PSG.

Hattricks

Spoiler

He notched 2 more in the campaign, a quadruple against Peterborough in the FA Cup quarters and against Newcastle. Poor Newcastle was subjected to some more humiliation in Old Trafford as well:

when he notched up 3 assists to go with a hattrick at St. James Park.

 

Awards

Spoiler

Bruno won two golden boots - in the PL and CL to go with other awards while Greenwood also helped himself to an award.

 

I also received a strange request from Cavani:

Cavani wants to retrain as a defender!!!!! 😁

 

Bruno

He finished with 54 goals and 34 assists in 58 matches.

 

Total points = 54 + (34 x 2) = 122 points

A decent attempt i would say, not troubling the heavy hitters at all. @RichD if you can add me to the leaderboard mate.

 

Thanks for viewing.

[broodje kip]

Great score Kane.

[RichD]

Well done Kane, great effort! Leave Newcastle alone though 😂

I’ll add you to the leaderboard now 😁

[Rob]

Excellent score. Shame about the Alaba injury.
