Wow, this is going to be massive mate! He's killing it...

The number on his player profile says 6 so it seems to have reset at 256 🤔 which seems like an odd number.

Looks like you had that really rare event where a national team is found guilty of running a performance enhancing drug program and has all their matches expunged from the official records... Or, more likely, you ran into the problem where the game devs didn't expect anyone to get that many ITN goals, so didn't allow enough 'room' in the database to store anymore than that. Been a problem for years... 😄

Apologies, I’ll just go away now and let you get on with things.

Bro I'm struggling with my main strikers. They don't score much goals, I'm in my 3rd season yet still midfielders and wingers who scores. 

Pls I need help...

Dude, there's plenty of help on this site if you just have a little look yourself.

This career used a strikerless tactic and won't help your strikers score.

The tactic index has so many pointers and tips about getting the best out of your players and which formations/roles/instructions to use for positive results.

Here is a link to it. Have a look through and you will find what you're looking for there.

Yeah. He's out of this world.

I'm just glad the number of goals resets rather than stops counting them. That would be disastrous! 🤣

Cheers man.

Regeer and De Jong are the latest OG's to leave our journey. Regeer, whilst developing into a really good player he wasn't good enough to keep using ahead of the other talents I have. De Jong has been loaned out for the past two seasons. This time there was a future fee included in the deal which Chelsea offered at the end of the season. No team would pay more than £20m at the start of the season so happy to get that fee really.

I didn't think I'd buy a high-profile player again but Sørensen was too good to ignore. I used my first choice CAM in the p/e deal for him as he was a straight replacement. This deal happened in the January window. Something I very rarely do.

Clean sweeping across the universe. 😁

 

International:

Nothing much to report. Qualifiers and friendlies. 

He only played 7 Internationals this season but managed to score 16 goals. His record is now 278 goals in 134 caps.

 

Gravenberch:

The reason for so few International games (and fewer club games you'll see below) is because he suffered two injuries this year. I won't complain as I've been super lucky thus far.

😲🤬🤬🤬🤬

I tried talking him into staying which made him even more eager to leave. It took an increase in wages to get him to forget all about it. 500k a month was doing it for him. Its going to cost us 725k a month from now on. Well, he is the greatest player the world has ever seen so should obviously be paid appropriately for that.

The injuries have affected his abilities a wee bit but nothing to be concerned about yet, I don't think.

A late penalty in the Champions Cup final kept the 100 club goal season run going. Can afford the drop in goals tbh. He's still got time to potentially get to 2k. We breeze past the 1.5k.

So, he's at the magical age of 30. Usually I'd look to move him on and with 1.5k goals done I would have called this a day. But, he's only 30. The chance to get to 2k is too much of a draw for me to give up on even though I've got another badge to chase and another career in mind. We continue on..... 😄

 

Cheers for all the feedback. 👍

Thanks Scratch. I agree. Considering it's only my second attempt too, it's quite unbelievable that it's a real possibility.

Barnsley have qualified for the Europa League. Amazing. It's good for me as they blow their budget on two players that have fallen out of favour with me.

Gravenberch now has 309 goals in exactly 150 Caps after scoring 31 goals in 16 games.

 

Gravenberch:

Injury free this season. Also, no looking for a new challenge. Why would you when you're on the money he is.

We're getting ever closer to the magic 2k. I'm confident of getting there soon. Two more seasons if he stays on this trajectory.

Another OG leaves. Ihattaren the latest to get caught by age. That leaves us with 3. Gravenberch, De Ligt and Wijndal.

I've taken a bit of a risk by selling some top players. They have always been slightly injury prone but when available are always effective. Just wanted to mix things up a bit.

Donnarumma leaves the same way he came. On a free. Still a top class keeper but I have youngsters ready to go.

Leicester the surprise opponents in the Champions Cup final. They won the Premier League this year too.

Qualifiers and International League games only so nothing to report.

Eight more caps returning 16 goals. Leaves him on 158 games and 325 goals.

As I said, towards the end of the season I noticed the drop in pace impact his ability to get into the scoring positions that have been the catalyst to this epic run of form. The CWC should have resulted in a bigger total but there was a drop off in goals in April & May.

The hopes of getting this done next season are gone. I'll be happy if he hits another 100 goal season the way he performed the last couple of months. Its still well within reach but not as soon as I had hoped.

 

Edit: I just realised that he's scored 1.5k Club goals now. Sweeeet! 😄

 

Thanks for the feedback. 👍

Brilliant again.

Your ITN blows my brain the most as I used to struggle like mad with it due to the limitations of players I could use due to the green/frontline rule pretty much ruling out a lot of players I wanted to use in the second line. You are nailing it.

Average rating of 9.1 too. Bonkers. Hadn’t noticed that before - is that similar to most seasons?

It's the reason I sign a full or close to full eleven from my chosen players Nationality. So I can control the development of the players I want to use at ITN level. Then I'm constantly on the lookout for the next generation that get generated and sign and develop them.

It's quite lucky as Netherlands have some really good players in the positions I need for the system. 

The average ratings are pretty consistent, same as everything else.
