I'm on the brink of binning off my game!!
The start of my season is always the knockout rounds of European competition as the league in Sweden runs from March-December.
I reached the Champions League 1st round knockout for only the 2nd time ever and I decided to go all out.
I paid the release fee of a world class midfielder to take me to the next level - he cost £101m!! I had over £150m in the bank though and I'm regularly getting big offers for my players now so I'd never be in financial trouble. I also rejected Man Utd pursuit of my world class striker for £55m. I have a team of 3-4 bordline world class players and another 4 who are wonder kids, plus the rest who are former wonder kids in theor early 20's.
I went to Stadio Olympico in my opening game and smashed Lazio 4-1. A 2-2 draw in the second leg saw me qualify for the QF for the first time ever. I got drawn against my bogey team Spurs!
I had the home leg first and fully fit team, but I went 2-0 down in 7 minutes. They scored a 3rd on the counter late on to win easily. The second leg I attacked them but only drew 1-1 and so I'm out again! They have several world class players but its frustrating. I feel like I've hot the ceiling with this team and even keeping this team together has taken effort with several of my players being pursued and wanting moves to big European clubs.
I've lost my drive to turn it back on, not sure what the next move is.
Keep it up mate, im enjoying reading your posts.
