Badge 1 - Spurs' Deadly Duo

I've been meaning to get this done for a while since putting my 1K attempt on hold. After testing some tactics I've settled on one I am fairly happy with (probably share it at the end of this challenge). I don't think I'll be pushing for a crazy score, but I'll be happy to reach 200 points on this one.

Season 1

We dominated practically every game we played, but that didn't stop us losing/drawing the odd game, unfortunately meaning early exits from the FA and Caribao cups. I was happy with the amount of goals though, and we just about managed to win the PL, after a very busy season with games sometimes 4/5 times a week.

I was extremely happy with how the squad performed overall. Everyone was getting involved, but Son still controlling the game and setting up most of the goals. After around 20 games Son was averaging a goal per game but not assisting as much, but dropping him back to a CAM role balanced him out. Hopefully he can maintain this next season. Kane was insane in front of goal. Also, I hope we can be just as lucky next season with no lengthy injuries to our main guys.

Scores

Kane - 73 goals + 15 assists

Son - 26 goals + 36 assists

Total - 99 goals + 51 assists

(150 points) 

So we head into season two needing a single goal to complete the challenge. Then we can concentrate on that score! 

Thanks for reading. Comments much appreciated!

Great start that Chris and the second season is usually better with a better squad, so good luck 😁

Thanks bud. I wasn't expecting to complete the challenge in one season at all, but missing it by one goal has me slightly annoyed 😂

Squad definitely needs some strengthening for next season. Fingers crossed now for a 300+ score which I would be over the moon with!

Season 2

Transfers In

Few big names here. Was a shame to get rid of Alli as he  was a really solid backup for Son last season. But I couldn't turn down an opportunity to upgrade Doherty to Trent.

Won everything bar the CL, losing 3-1 to Barcelona. I wish I could say we deserved to win, but I'd be lying if I did. Slightly less goals in the league this season, so how did our guys get on?

Screenshot_20210116_000237_com_sega.score.thumb.jpg.725acaf28074e3c6c509959ff547f871.jpg

Nothing too risky here. Really enjoyed using the APs out wide, as I did last year too. I would say I was happy with the tactic overall, but I may attempt this challenge again one day and make some adjustments. 

Anyways, here are the totals for this season, and the challenge overall:

Scores

Kane - 66 goals + 13 assists

Son - 31 goals + 36 assists

Season Total - 97 goals + 49 assists

(146 points) 

Challenge Total - 296 points

Absolutely chuffed with my overall score for this, albeit slightly disappointed on the lack of improvement for our 2nd season. I may revisit this challenge after collecting some more badges but for now I'm happy to take 8th place. If you would kindly add me to the leader boards please @Rob

Thank you for reading, and stay tuned for my next Badge attempt!

Badge 2 - The Last Dance

See here for challenge thread

Finally, here is my attempt at badge number 2. Took me a while to get something working for this one, but I was fairly pleased with the results. It was the first time I'd managed to get a 1ATB formation to work this year. 

Transfers In

Screenshot_20210120_003824_com_sega.score.thumb.jpg.30030902492881d8e6cdcc85043b0c17.jpg

Bought in some big names. Had to let Coutinho go for Neymar though which was pretty gutting as I'm sure he would have been an ace sub for Messi. I was a little unsure if we had enough quality in depth, but we managed well in the end. 

Transfers Out

This was the best gpg I've achieved this year, but also the most goals conceded in a year. But that didn't matter for this challenge. Let's see how MSN got on... 

Score: 

Screenshot_20210120_010217_com_sega.score.thumb.jpg.fc2841ef62fc6c97b9f5f734b6b531d1.jpg

The guys done pretty well with injuries this season, except Luis Suarez towards the end. He actually had a cracking first half of the season and was sat on 20 goals by January. Neymar did well enough for me, and performed better than he had done in previous saves, but there was no beating Messi. He was an absolute monster with 72 contributions for the season. Bringing us in to the score for this challenge:

Suarez: 41 

Neymar: 44

Messi: 72

Total: 157 points. 

I really enjoyed this challenge, and adding this badge to my collection. Onto the next! Thanks for reading. @Scratch If you could add my score to the leader boards please.

Stay tuned for Redknapping, up next!

P.S My write ups will probably stay quite short from now on due to not having much time lately. Damn responsibilities...

Thanks mate. It was really tricky, but I enjoyed trying different formations en route. Next challenge is even more outside of my comfort zone as I haven't managed LL in a looooong time. Probably not since 2015!

Badge 3 - Redknapping

See here for challenge thread

So this challenge sees me taking control of Pompey, with the aim of (almost) completely overhauling the squad, whilst trying to achieve a benchmark of 2nd in the league. This challenge was right up my street as I love to rip up and rebuild teams, and also would be my first time in LLM this FM. I wasn't sure how my tactics would work out due to this, but let's see how we did... 

Transfers In

Screenshot_20210121_232709_com_sega.score.thumb.jpg.084fe14b2ff40d55fad773c598e1346a.jpg

More loan players than I'd like to admit but some of them were too good to turn down. Alot of them were last minute decisions mind, as they weren't interested in joining the club until it had been strengthened a fair bit. 

Transfers Out

Screenshot_20210121_232653_com_sega.score.thumb.jpg.c249127a4d5f21f0cef5f2be8c0a7920.jpg

Screenshot_20210121_232658_com_sega.score.thumb.jpg.ade4418c511a9df6326eae4a0beaf088.jpg

Only players to note that came to the club after this (in January window) were Ryan Edmondson and Eric Smith to provide the squad with some much needed depth, due to the tiring nature of the tactic we employed. 

Results

So we absolutely destroyed the league, scoring a crazy amount of goals. As usual we started to slump after the New Year, however an amazing first half of the season meant we finished pretty well off in the end. We used a 2ATB formation for the entirety and I do wonder if a 3-5-3 would have lead to more points due to less conceded. 

Screenshot_20210123_223210_com_sega.score.thumb.jpg.6d15deb5a75a9be9f795b255c73534fd.jpg

Screenshot_20210123_223222_com_sega.score.thumb.jpg.eebf23a3cdd6cb937970217e8167969e.jpg

So here is Arp, our top scorer, and he truly performed. He seemed to slow down alot once he became slightly unhappy as he thought he was too good for the league, but he was still scoring a good amount. He was also injured for about 2 months, so hats off to him for still remaining top scorer. The rest of our main strikers weren't far behind though, so I'm really pleased with how the 3 up front worked out. 

Screenshot_20210123_223238_com_sega.score.thumb.jpg.a680ee9b48d6265b9288546ac378707e.jpg

Screenshot_20210123_223249_com_sega.score.thumb.jpg.fcc98d1746939b9f1ea622bb547a8b66.jpg

Finally, I did post in the bug thread about this but Musiala shows he only got 9 goals. His stats reset randomly half way through the season, and as you can see just in the league it shows that he scored 16 goals. He didn't seem to play at the same level after his stats reset either, but this gave room for his team mates to play and they were on fire. 

Screenshot_20210123_223636_com_sega.score.thumb.jpg.33996dac0229dde46290f2ca8be75ab2.jpg

Score

91 GD + 120 Points =

211 points

Thank you for reading. Stay tuned for Badge 4!

@FuddledFox and @Rob if you could update the leaderboard and badge collection respectively when you get the chance please!

Cheers Dick 😁 This was definitely my favorite career so far. It was nice to see so many goals. Probably the most I've scored in a season this year. Just hope it can hold its own in the top leagues now! Hoping to use a similar system for the next badge, but will definitely need some slight tweaks for our Three Wise Men.

Not sure a tactic change would have increased the score as you might have scored less as well as conceded less and where’s the fun in that 🤷‍♂️

Thanks Foxy!

Yeah you're probably right there mate, guess we will never know 😂

A very nice season for Pompey there. Some good business done in the market and especially some nice loan deals. Badge collected and in some style.

Good luck for the next one.
