Career My "Ten Season Compounder" Challenge (S10)✅ 3457)

[Dai_]

The Ten Season Compounder Challenge

 

Another challenge from the mind of my ol' mucker, @Rob. 

Ever since it was posted I wanted to have a crack at it. It took me a while to settle on a team to use but eventually, I chose one of @Rob's faves. 😊

This is the challenge:

 

"This challenge lasts ten seasons and is all about goals, assists, and how you manage your squad.

For this challenge you must:

Head to any club you want;

Sign your first player;

Make any other transfers you want;

Not use any unlockables

You then play one season, attempting to smash in goals left, right, and centre, dominating the world with your managerial genius.

Your score for the first season is goals and assists for player 1.

For the second season you buy a new player. You play the second season, destroying everything in sight.

Your score for the second season is goals and assists for player 1 plus goals and assists for player 2. 

Then for the third season you sign player 3. Yep, your score for season 3 is goals and assists for players 1, 2, and 3.

You do this for 10 seasons, ending up with 10 players contributing towards goals and assists in season 10. 

Your total score is all the season scores added  together.

At no point can your starting or new player be already at the club. All contributing players must be signed."

 

So, here we go.

 

The Club

Yep. The Gunners. I flirted with going to Spain or Italy but the sheer amount of games you can play in the English League and Cup's is hard to ignore for such a challenge.

 

Player One:

This kid is easily one of, if not my absolute favourite wonderkid on this year's game. Yes, I like him more than Lamine Yamal. 😳 If ever there was a player I knew I could count on to perform for the entire 10 seasons, it's him!

 

Season 1:

TRANSFERS;

Spoiler

Lots of change to get the squad where I want it.

 

COMPETITIONS;

Invincibles! 😊

Spoiler

2-1 vs City in finals. 😂

 

PLAYER ONE - ARDA GULER;

Goals - 72

Assists - 55

A great start. Shocked that we went the entire League season unbeaten but I'm delighted. Guler performed like I knew he would so onwards and upwards.

This challenge is going to mess with my head. Finding out how to get the most out of numerous players later in the challenge is going to be interesting.

As always, Thanks for reading. 👍

Thanks. It needs to be more than a one man show career though. 😂 I just hope I can adapt it as such. 😊

Absolutely smashing this one mate. Love seeing you give it a go. Would never have guessed Sesko in a million years!

It's a big decision as he's gonna be with me for 9 seasons. (I wanted Haaland but obviously, he wouldn't sign 🙄).

Wouldn't of taken you long to figure out Guler though the amount i bang on about him. Ha!

Cheers mate.

[Rob]

You do love your Guler!!!

[StuartM]

This is going to be another big one!

Good luck and great progress so far mate.

Hopefully a big one mate, yeah.

It'll get more difficult the more players you add obviously. There's so many ways to approach it which is what drew me to it. Plus, player choice is important.

Thanks.

I'm slightly worried going forward as I might have to tinker with the tactic to get the most out of 4+ players. We'll have to see how it goes.

Spectacular numbers Dai!

Very curious as to how this goes as you add the new guys

MANAGER PROFILE:

 

Another great season. I'm very happy with how this is progressing. Getting more difficult with every player that's added, obviously. The tactic is still proving effective so not much tinkering done yet. That might have to change but I play with 5 players in attacking positions so I might be able to use my substitutions wisely to get through this. We'll see.

Thanks for reading. 👍

A great season! Having players that are versatile is very important, I think. As I'm the first person to attempt this I'm not too sure what numbers I should be hitting but I feel these are very good. 🤷😂

Bellingham is amazing! I only signed him because I failed to sign Haaland, again. 😞

Thanks for reading. 👍

I guess he looks alright!

What a team you've got now!!

what tactic you using damnn

 

[Mario Jamin]

Wow @Dai_ I just came across your posts and crazy!!! I've been playing this game since handheld and I've never seen that kind of stats (Arda Guler Goals and Assists)!! 🤯

My challenge is to figure out the Dai tactic! 😆 I think I've figured bits of it. I'm getting my highest scoring record with my new tactic (created this after i came across your post), but still cant get the crazy stat you have. Haaland scored 59 and only 11 assists..

Thanks, man.

Yeah, it was a slog to create such a successful tactic, tbh. Took me quite a while to get it this good. I'm still tinkering with it slightly too. Using the right players for the right roles is important, as always. Also, I can't stress enough how much you need effective set-pieces.

MASSIVE season! The addition of Haaland was always going to boom the numbers but I'm not sure if it's taking away too much from other players. The system will always put more players into scoring positions but the ball is like a magnet to Haaland and he's just lethal. He's probably not the best player to add here but I can't ignore how good he is.

I have a target of 20 goals for each player going forward. If they all get that I'll be really happy. As for assists, I have no target.

Thanks for reading. 👍

MANAGER PROFILE:

 

Adding a player seems to have had a negative effect on output. Which is annoying. Might be down to how much rotation there was. I was desperate to get all seven players to 20 goals so when the stragglers were struggling I did focus on them a bit too much, probably. Vini Jr. Had a bit of a poor return but that may be down to the fact he wasn't playing that regularly for Madrid before I signed him (for some unknown reason 🤷).

400 is still a mega return from seven players so I can't panic, yet. Ha!

A significant amount of injuries this season. That's always going to happen with nine target players. Still, the returns were good. Not great but as I'm the first (and probably the only 😂) one to attempt this I'm not sure how well I should be doing. Ha!

The 'ol split 3.5kc hero. Had to be done.

And with that, I've realised that I've used 10 players of different nationalities. 😳 If you ignore the fact that Darvich has registered caps for Germany after being capped by France (🤦). I'll say nothing if you don't. 😂

So, this career is finished and the total is pretty big. 😂Tbh, the last couple of write ups were tougher than the challenge, not that they're anything special either. Ha!

I don't know if there was a better way to approach it but I'm happy with the strategy I used and the players I selected.

The challenge is fun. I recommend people to have a go.

Now, I'm looking for a new challenge so any suggestions are welcome. 😂
