Sandro Rosell, the current Barcelona president, has shocked the footballing world by announcing that Barça will be selling off all defender in order to play a more fluid and possession-based system. He has told the current manager, Tito Vilanova, that he expects all defenders gone by the end of the current transfer window, and that the team must only contain goalkeepers, midfielders and strikers... I'm back, with yet another challenge! This one, as you might as guessed, is about playing without defenders. Although I haven't used Barcelona as the example, you can manage any team you like, and your aim is to avoid the sack but you can only field goalkeepers, midfielders and strikers. This means that any defenders must be sold, and none can be signed again, as well as any other midfielders or strikers who are green in any of the defensive positions (the best they can be in defensive is competent). This means you can't have any players who are accomplished or natural in the following positions: sweeper, centre back, full back or wing back. I have said that you can manage any team you like, as it will be a challenge with any team: although better teams have better players, they also have higher expectations: you may want to bear that in mind! This challenge is really just for fun, so I won't add a leaderboard. Feel free to use any settings you wish to, but if you really want to challenge yourself, choose a poor team with high expectations, turn all unlockables off and turn Attribute Masking on! I hope you have fun whilst doing this challenge, yes I know it's quite hard, but it is a challenge after all! Good luck and have fun with this!
