Career Season 22 - The End: Moukoko-a-Gogo (1,246✅:1,291✅)

Recommended Posts

“…because he’s planning on going solo.”

A spot of Wham there to kick things off.

Edit: Original title was ‘Wake me up before Moukoko’ until I realised it had been used elsewhere

Anyway last year I did a 500:500 with Pipi that ended up lasting 29 seasons and became a 1,000:1,000. For those who don’t know, that means 1,000 goals and 1,000 assists with the same player in the same career.

So this year I am going to try again, with the best young player in the game:

A couple of notes:

- I am using City because their squad suits my tactic best to start with;

- I make no excuse at using a brilliant player - the career needs it;

- I will not be writing long updates. They will be small and concise;

- I am a fair way in to this already and I will warn any dubious fellas that he rarely gets injured. I tend to sub him at 85 condition as most contributions come in the first half of the game;

- City play a lot of games;

- My passion for the game has dwindled a lot the last year or so, and I’ll be writing an article soon about challenges within the game

If anyone still reads these things, thanks for reading.

Haha, thanks. Not going to lie, the ability to name the career played a big part in player selection. 😂

YES!!!! I'm so glad you decided to do a career with this!

That title is familiar. I'm sure I've seen it before. It's still brilliant though. I'm sure you sing it every time he scores a goal too. I know I would. Haha!

Good luck, mate!

Can't wait for this one - though Man City is a poor choice, I would have gone with Club Tropicana myself. But good choice with Moukoko, I love seeing Young Guns (go for it). 

Speaking of Moukoko, I found this photo of him showing off his skills:

Anyway looking forward to this one. Come on!

That not mokukoko

Lol, no, I was being funny - it's Andrew Ridgely, one half of the 1980s band Wham, who sang Wake Me Up Before You GoGo (that inspired the name of this career). I also snuck 3 Wham song titles in the my post as well. :D 

Edit: Imma old, not everyone will get those references (actually maybe not many will get them, that's how old I am)...

Season 01

It begins. Contribution of 79 in season one by the resolute monster of a player.

And he looks really good for a 17 year old.

Very nice start. Especially from one so young!

That squad assembly is a thing of beauty! 😍

Get that crossing up and you'll be laughing!

That's massive for a youngster! Great start and a bit scary thinking about what sort of numbers he'll get in a few years, especially with that team you're putting together...

Thanks.

I love the squad building part of careers, and always love seeing what you lads do. I’m a fair way in now and still enjoying that element.

Intense training or normal?

Who do you have mentoring?

 

Whenever I find a good solid youngster they only ever want to be mentored once then think theyre the dogs bollocks and dont want any further teaching

Standard, and training as a striker. Mentor is Carrillo and all credit to @Scratch for that, primarily for aerial… although he actually doesn’t need that for this career.

In the new few seasons I retrain him as winger and AMC to bump up crossing and all the creativity stats.

Having just searched for my own thread, I’ve noticed fellow Spurs fan @MikeF actually posted a career with the same title at the tail end of last year. Apologies Mike - I honestly didn’t intend to copy it. Great minds, and all that…!

For info, his career is here and it’s absolutely fantastic:

Four goals for Mr M in an 11-1 demolition of ten mighty Wolves.

He finished the season as an 18 year old, grabbing 46 goals and 58 assists…

That amount of assists with relatively low passing, creativity, crossing & teamwork is ridiculous!

Great season!

Season 03

Moukoko ended the season looking like an absolute beast of a player.

With his stamina increasing to 14 it meant I could play him for longer before subbing at the 80-84 per cent conditioning mark. As I mentioned in the original op, his injury record is excellent in this, and I am convinced only playing him for the first half and a bit of the second tends to help, especially as our returns are much higher in that initial 45 minutes.

We smashed some teams, such as this game:

E8F0AB3F-376F-4822-8CF1-6DFE99826D81.thumb.jpeg.dbcfbfe4f71204da19053a2b1385d40e.jpeg

And Moukoko contributed a fair few goals and assists:

53 goals and 67 assists added to the total, giving us 140 and 163 towards our target of 500 for each.

Absolutely incredible! Safe to say he's looking the part now too! Do you feel like there's more in him? Those numbers are insane as it is!

Well done, Sir!
