This makes me less confident😂

Great post though Dan 😁

Cheers.

You know who I feel (almost) sorry for? @Kun Aguero.

• He’s 5th now.
• He’s got 3 games vs Vibe teams, all away from home.
• BUT he has an average of <1 point per game (based on his previous 5 away games vs Vibe teams).
• That would give him only 2-3 points from these 3 games + whatever he can get from the other 2 games vs bottom half teams (4-6 points?).

After being in the top 2-3 for most of the season, he could end up doing a Leicester + finishing outside the top 4 (and missing out on his ‘$25m’ reward for not finishing in the top 4). Ouch.

Edit - I’ll look really stupid if he wins the league now

Dan thanks for all the info, amazing! So so close

Before I post the final updates of the season... There is some bad news for @YungGaffer

Spoiler

Our second manager sacking 😮 at the end of the season

 

Your 2 option are:

1. Sign Rafa Benitez or Niko Kovac for 5M
2. Sign any manager (that's not from another player) for 10M

Ouch.

@Titjes - the screenshot shows you’re on May 24th, so the league (EPL) has probably finished, but the 2 Euro Cup finals aren’t played yet (ECL + Europa). 

• Are you going to wait for @YungGaffer’s reply before continuing the month in-game (which would make sense if he’s in the Europa final) ...
• ... or are you going to continue the game to end-May, and then when @YungGaffer replies, then his choice gets implemented at the end of the month (which would make sense if he has no more games left).

Am just wondering ... 🙂 ... any hints on the *cough* league table *cough*. The suspense is killing me haha

@YungGaffer has time to make a choice until S2 starts (as europe doesn't count).

I hope to do the update by tonight, as I'm having internet problem since yesterday and they still haven't been able to fix it 😕

And it's not handy on my phone to make that big update 😅

IF the internet problems are still happening tonight, I will drop some hints on the league table 😜

I can imagine you just sending ONE screenshot of the league table - but just the bottom half / bottom 9-10 clubs!

Thanks again @Titjes for doing this - it’s great fun & we really appreciate you running it!

As long as we finish in the top 7, bielsa keeps his job

[Titjes]

It seems @YungGaffer has not been on the forums since saturday, if he doesn't reply today he will be removed from the game.

[Titjes]

Here is a little teaser to make you think

Spoiler

Only 4 out of 9 players managed to complete their Sponsorship Season Objective 😮😉

You may want to give him a little more time (an extra day or two over the weekend?).

I’ve just sent him a message, so he should get an email notification reminding him. Let’s see.

Urgh. Then my (low) chance to win the league probably hasn’t happened. Urgh.

I think the analysis below is roughly correct - let me know if I got something wrong.

—————-

ACHIEVED:

• @broodje kip / Sandwich - already achieved (won Carabao cup)!

LIKELY:

• @Rich / Bale - qualify for Europe / top 7 - highly likely (+80%).
• 2 of these 3 players - @Victor77 / Vice + @geordiekrispy / Blue Star + @Kun Aguero/ Kuns Army - top 4 - 50% chance each.

NOT LIKELY

• @YungGaffer / Yung Kings - top 4 - 20% chance.
• Me - win league - 20% chance.  

 

IMPOSSIBLE

• @d e m a r a i / DAMWON + @leedsunited87 / Leeds City - win cup - now impossible (as Europe doesn’t count in season 1)

Hey atleast it's still a champions league title for Pep lmao

 

Also we won the Community Shield earlier on the season and that counts XD

Er ... I’m really sorry @d e m a r a i - but I don’t think the community shield does count.

@Titjes can confirm - but he said the European Cups + Community Shield “don’t count” in season 1 - because it is unfair, only 2 vibe players have the chance to win the community shield, and is not based on the vibe team’s past performance. That’s how I understood it.

Indeed the Community Shield also doesn't count this season 😉

@broodje kip is indeed the obvious one who completed it 😁

As for the others, you're close with your analysis 😉

Oh you’re evil. Don’t give me hope. “It’s not the failure that gets you, it’s the hope.”

Hey gents

Sorry for not responding for some time. It's been a rough week (University), didn't want to bring my negative energy here but things have gotten better 🙂

Season Review: Yung Kings are probably in last with no season objective met but hoping we reached the *important* Euro Cup, just to boost my ego 🤣

Sacked Manager: Yung Kings are proud to replace "The Special One" with the only manager to win the Champions League in three consecutive seasons, Zinedine Zidane 🥳 (I hope i haven't wasted 10M)

Quick question before the season results reveal

What would cause the manager not to play someone (Eg, Bellingham has only played 3 games this season)

Better players ahead of him probably, Bellingham has a high PA but he doesn’t start out looking that great. He’s great a few seasons in.

Then why doesn't he just play him so he can develop a bit, on games where he picks a weak squad?

AI isn’t great mate, you don’t see players develop that well under them compared to how they do under your own guidance. They need to improve that part of the game.
