It was the best of times, it was the absolutely-worst-possible-squad-pickin' of times...
So many careers i've begun and i never ended one, can you believe it? It's the truth, i have some of them stuck in the middle...every top honour won, or not...:)
I've made a promise to myself to only stop playing this game until i won the champions' league title with EVERY team in Europe, and every other top honour with every other team in the world...that's for you to see how deep i am involved...anyway, these are some of my great games...they are here to show you of what an honest man can do with some money (well, sometimes a little loan from the bank really helps), but i'd like to state the following: although i might have taken advantage of the game's non-hidden hexadecimal cash display, and altered a few bytes in my favour, i have never, EVER, changed my usual policy: i only buy players below £ 1,000,000. I don't care if they're crap, i want crap! And the money has only been increased to prevent an occasional crash in the stock market, and eventually leading to a lack of funds. I buy 6 players a year, because the game won't allow any more purchases..."(...) the club is unwilling to make (...)" Ahhhhhhh shut up!!!
So don't be surprised if you see lots of players below £1 M and a bank balance around £ 90-something M...it's the way i am...:)
The tables are pretty intuitive, there are just some details i'd like to point out:
- players with names written in yellow are recommended by me in my PLAYERS section, in this page;
- the tactics shown can be downloaded by pressing the image of the tactic itself;
- the honours the team has achieved are in the top right of the table. the figures aren't of how many season the team has been in which division, but the number of times the team has won 1st place in each of the competitions.

táctica 3 x 1 x 3 x 3

The team was based on a very fast and effective strike force, with a fast striker (Camanducaia), and 2 great supports (Palermo and Vahirua). Both of them provide help and are on the base of almost every offensive move the team makes. The wingers are fast, and cross well. Great defendind squad (see HALL OF FAME), Ioannidis and Babayaro provide all the stability the midfield needs. Giannini bosses the center-half. |
