2012 The 2000 goal challenge

[Sunny]

Honestly I'm starting to get sick of Ganso. He's been annoying since Aranda arrived and he got injured for a long time. He doesn't last full matches, always steals the assists from Aranda, and asks for 90K for wages after we won Sao Paulo state again, even though he was a mere sub. Any tips on getting rid of a 36.5M superstar? I've got his replacement as well, he's Rivaldo's regen and I've thought about bringing him to Santos but I still had Ganso. Now Ganso isn't Ganso anymore.

If anyone's interested, I'm also building a team of D/M/F RLCs Including Elano, Gerrard, and some you've never heard of.

How long would that take?

How long would that take?

What are you referring to?

Only two games left, but I think I'll be busy in the coming days...

I'm guessing he wants to know how long it takes for the players to be retrained to so many positions

[Matthew]

Yeah, to retrain the players

[Sunny]

Yeah, to retrain the players

Depends on the ability of a player in a position. For example, Gerrard is awkward in FL, FC, FR, Competent in AML, ML, DML, DMC, DMR, DL, DC and DR, so it doesn't really take a long time, perhaps a few months in the game. I believe there's also a hidden stat for it.

Season 5 [2016]

---

Another exciting season, I was disappointed with our financial status, so I decided to sell the veggies and deadwood left in the first-team and reserve team. Think I did good business during the windows, managed to earn a lot of money to improve our maximum wage to around 85,000-90,000 pounds per week. Check out our transfers in the screenshots below!

We had another injury crisis again, and I was forced to bring in the regen of Raul Meireles, who luckily was just sitting around, free, without a contract when I sold my 2 back-up midfielders Milenkovic and Diarra to other Brazilian teams. Don't really think I need him now that I have Elano, Renato regens and more back from loan in my reserves, but I guess I'll wait for him to grow and let his value rise and sell him like the other veggies Long term injuries for Vincius and Diego Contento(one of my favorite real players, got him on Bosman) forced me to hunt for new blood as well, and so I recalled Gabriel Heinze's regen and bought another amazing looking Brazilian defender from Ipatinga. Think I'm gonna get rid of Vincius next season. Maxwell, Adriano(the one at Barca), and Renato(the one that had played for Sevilla) appeared from my youth system, so I guess we have a few exciting prospects coming...

Enough about the team, let's see how Neymar did:

Total Goals: 555 + 146 = 701 Goals

Not bad if you ask me, Neymar also got his highest Average Rating of 9.44 in this season as well. But 10 assists is probably a bit too much. Aranda was solid as well, grabbing 35 assists. Could he really get 1000 assists?

Enjoy the screenshots

Screenshots:

It was a sad year for the world of football, many modern legends retired I was honored to let Julio Cesar represent Brazil for his last time against Bolivia in the World Cup Qualifications, and he managed to keep a clean sheet as well

We hit another injury crisis...and with 2 long term injuries...damn

No way you're getting Elano...he's worth way more than 4M!

I know it's been a busy transfer window...but you should never question my transfers! He was never good enough for first-team!

Results for Brazil:

This guy's considered as the new Rivaldo...

By the way, to anyone who's interested, Fluminese spoiled my perfect season with a 2-2 draw

[Ashez]

Truely amazing

[Sunny]

I guess you didn't notice Neymar got a red card

[Ashez]

He most likely just wanted a rest

[Franco]

Why aren't the international goals counted? :unsure:

[Sunny]

Why aren't the international goals counted? :unsure:

It's too confusing to count the international goals of one season, so I'll just check out his international goals before he retires/I finish the challenge

[Eoin]

You could get 1000 within 9 seasons

[Sunny]

You could get 1000 within 9 seasons

1000 goals is too easy

No pressure really, I'm just waiting for Ronaldinho(who's now at Birmingham) to retire in June/July, so I can get his awesome regen Then I hope to see Neymar and Aranda retire, and get Aranda to rack up 1000 assists and maybe even get a son! If my son's a striker then I'll try to get 1000 goals from him as well...

Will we get to see the tactic your using at the end of your challenge?

[Sunny]

Will we get to see the tactic your using at the end of your challenge?

Definitely. By the way, it's called TheKraken Wonder if you've heard it somewhere else Ok so I switched Neymar's role a bit...

[Matthew]

What do you play Neymar as to get that many goals?

[Ashez]

What do you play Neymar as to get that many goals?

I'm fairly sure he uses him as a poacher.

[Matthew]

I play him as that (when as Santos but fairly rarely) and he score around 2 per game sometimes.

It migh have popped up here and there :ph34r:

[Sunny]

If you've spent some time in the Brazilian leagues you'll start to be familiar which teams are crap and which are awesome. I've been lucky these seasons where Neymar usually managed to score hat-tricks against the greater teams such as Sao Paulo, but lately, with more foreign managers coming in(Ancelotti, Schuster, etc.), Fluminese, Cruzeiro and Internacional are screwing me up

You'll also understand that scoring against the odd crappy team such as Nautico, Parana, Noroeste, Mogi Mirim is key. You should always set up your best team for them so you can get Neymar to score as much as possible(I think I managed 6 against Mogi Mirim this season) Of course, with my awesome team of regens it's hard to tell who's better than the other, but Aranda(Riquelme) is definitely one of the best.

[Ashez]

Have you broke 1000 yet?

[Sunny]

Don't know, I was really sick a week ago, so I haven't played much lately. Have competitions coming up next week as well, so I guess I won't have that much time to play. Shouldn't be too hard though, if he manages 100+ per season.

[rafa]

Neymar looks much better in 2012

[Sunny]

Ronaldinho and Alves have retired, and Alves regenerated at Santos just like Maxwell, Bastos and Adriano. I found Ronaldinho at Flamengo, so I guess I'll get rid of Ganso soon...

[Jens]

Ronaldinho took his time

I once had him retire after the first season

[Sunny]

I once had him retire after the first season

Quite a career he had, Barca, Milan, Flamengo, and ending up at Birmingham I evencalled him up for the national team as I didn't have enough AMs...

Just a matter of waiting them grow like them Barca veggies...Kaka's already became quite a player, I'll call him up next time after the friendlies.

One of my sayings ay

Jesus Ronny took his time!

Do you play Neymar every game? Or do you have a system for when he's not 100%

[Sunny]

Do you play Neymar every game? Or do you have a system for when he's not 100%

He's usually at 100%, but if his condition goes lower than 90% I'll play either Riquelme, Rivaldo or Eto'o(usually Eto'o, he just scored a hat-trick against Ceara).

Managed to play a few months last night so I hope I'll be able to post am update by no later than next week.
