Devil's guide to starting challenges So for my first guide in a while, I thought of a guide on how to start off some of the most popular challenges on Vibe! There will be 1 part for each challenge I do. Number 1: The 1000 goal challenge In this challenge, the aim is to score one thousand goals with one player in the least amount of seasons possible. In order to do so you will need: A striker: The three best tactical roles for a striker in this challenge in my opinion are Poacher, Advanced Forward and the less used Target Man. The two best ways to find a suitable player are: Finding the perfect contender: 1) Search for strikers in your price range and just look on their profile for their tactical role. 2) Search for the required attributes for each role and choose a player that way. Poacher: Advanced Forward Target Man Remember in the search to include the ideal age (0-21 although up to 22 is still ok), position and price. The attributes in the above images are to find decent players and quite a few of them in the search but you can always change them to suit yourself. Remember also that players evolve with time so you might find a poacher that after a few seasons will become a target man. A tactic: Obviously like in any challenge you will need a tactic. The average 1kc tactic will have the chosen striker alone up front, normally at least one winger and most of the time a normal 4 man defence. I normally use something that resembles this: Tactical roles: For tactical roles, I talked about the striker earlier. For the winger(s), an Inside Forward often takes goals or chances and misses them, so he isn't ideal. But the two best imo are APM and Winger. An APM often focuses on making himself available to pick up his teams passes and then give it to someone else. The winger, when he has he ball of course, tries the bug the touchline and beat his man with his pace. Then often crossing into the box to try and create a chance. For the more central players, most of the time I just look at my squad then see who are my best midfielders and build the central midfield around them. Finally the defenders it's pretty much the same thing. See who are your best players and give them their preferred or best role. Although with some tactics a BPD and a Winger are decently effective. Team instructions: Next, the team instructions. I often like them like this: Although most of the time the team instructions just need messing around with and testing, I just like the attacking mentality that I have found goes pretty well with the pressing turned on. Finally, when you're preparing your tactic, make sure to put your chosen striker as the penalty and free kick taker because this will often give you 5+ extra goals a season. The club: Where to go? Obviously some leagues are easier to score in than others. The top three easiest nations to score in are: 1) Brasil. Brasil is very easy to score in (especially in the SP) but the seasons are quite a lot longer than in other countries. 2) Portgual. Seasons are an average length but it's harder to score in. 3) Holland. Again seasons are a normal length it's just harder (the hardest of these three) to score in. Club finance: At a club you will either need a good starting budget or a good budget that's achievable by either selling the deadwood on the team or the team's star striker seeing as either way he will virtually never play. Extra help: This is completely optional, but sometimes if you have enough money to spend you can also go looking for players who can get your striker a fair amount of goals. The better stats for this are (Imo) crossing, passing, teamwork although there are others that could also have an impact. Notes: This is only part one, there will hopefully be others up roughly once a week. Credit to Dec for his helpful guide on "Key attributes for each player role". Finally, I'd appreciate it if along with whatever you have to say in your comment, you just say a quick word on the presentation and if it looks okay and what I should improve.

So after previous fail of overwriting Ishak Belfodil 1k in Brazil, I decided to try something more challenging. I learned a lot from this forums and I hope I can make it into some real outcome. So here it is, 1k challenge in ITALY. Team : AC MILAN Player : Mario "Super Mario" Balotelli Due to his mediocre CA and PA, this will be tough, will I be able to push this kid over 1000 goals? 1st update will be soon . Comments would be nice.
