Can definitely see where the addition of 2 clubs changes things. Last year I think all but 2 were 5 star. Attack/Midfield/Defense Ajax 4.5 stars 83/83/80 Atlanta United 4.5 stars 83/83/80 Bayern 5 stars 84/83/83 Bremen 5 stars 83/84/82 Brighton 4.5 stars 85/82/81 Brøndby IF 4.5 stars 82/81/82 BSC Young Boys 5 stars 85/84/82 Everton 4.5 stars 82/83/82 FC Barcelona 5 stars 87/83/84 Fiorentina 4.5 stars 82/83/83 Frankfurt 5 stars 84/84/80 Juventus 4.5 stars 83/82/82 Kaizer Chiefs 4.5 stars 82/83/81 Leeds United 5 stars 85/82/84 Liverpool 5 stars 87/83/85 Malmö FF 5 stars 83/84/83 Manchester City 5 stars 88/82/84 Milan 5 stars 85/82/82 PSG 4.5 stars 83/83/80 Real Oviedo 5 stars 83/85/82 Real Madrid 5 stars 86/84/83 Real Sociedad 5 stars 82/83/82
We are using the Liga 1 2 3 schedule which runs Saturday August 19 2017 through Wednesday May 16 2018
As a reminder, FIFA will only allow changes for the home club since I am user controlling ever club to make changes for you so if you don’t have someone suspended/injured, I can’t check to see if someone is back from injury or make any changes to your squad until you have someone injured/suspended or are at home again.
To keep with our Spanish theme, instead of custom tournament for the league cup we are using Copa de España. All of us, all of LaLiga and some of Liga 1 2 3. It actually has some playing in round 1 with some advanced to round 2. Round 1 matches: Juventus vs Fiorentina Lorca FC vs Bremen Real Oviedo vs Córdoba CF Bayern vs Atlanta United Brøndby IF va Milan BSC Young Boys va Ajax D. Alaves vs Malmö FF Everton vs Sevilla Atletico Frankfurt vs Leeds United PSG vs Kaizer Chiefs Set matches for round 2: RC Celta vs Real Madrid Real Sociedad vs Manchester City Sevilla FC vs FC Barcelona Levante UD va Valencia CF RCD Espanyol vs RC Deportivo SD Eibar vs Brighton Round 2 clubs with no set opponent yet: Atletico Madrid CD Leganes Liverpool Real Betis UD Las Palmas Athletic Club Getafe CF Girona FC Malaga CF Villarreal CF
Group A Liverpool Malmö FF Real Madrid Club Brugge Group B Real Sociedad Brøndby IF Everton SL Benfica Group C Spartak Moscow Ajax Atlanta United Manchester City Group D PSG Frankfurt Zenit St Petersburg Fiorentina Group E FC Porto BSC Young Boys Juventus Galatasaray Group F FC Barcelona Kaizer Chiefs Olympiacos Bayern Munich Group G Napoli Leeds United Milan Bremen Group H Shakhtar Donetsk Real Oviedo Brighton and Hove Albion Marseille
Just so everyone is aware it seems to be doing its own thing again so if your assigned guy isn’t taking them, I can’t control it other than confirming it is set correctly. Also for next guys, you’ll see that subs will not make sense some, if not most, of the time. As the season goes if you want to add any quick subs/predetermined subs just let me know

Adjustments needed for match day 2 (for new guys, I will always post this so people know what changes have to be made for next sim. I don’t like choosing for people so please get with me same day or morning/afternoon next day) roonskie - Need a change just in case Carvajal can’t go. He should be good but want to have a backup. -Swap Gomez in for Carvajal if he can’t go or I need to make the switch now. Gunners - Need a change for Rabiot as he serves his 1 match ban. -Mata. Jordan Henderson to bench. Change formation to 4-1-3-2 tne - Need a change for Parades. -Ozzy. Torreria to bench. What a half for Rabiot. Goal and 2 yellows.
TOTW Schmeichel - Ajax Rose - Liverpool Ginter - Ajax Smalling - Oviedo Fernandes - Kaizer Chiefs Hazard - Juventus Pjanić - Ajax Banega - Ajax Pulisic - Kaizer Chiefs Lewandowski - Ajax Messi - Bayern
Forgot to mention, also let me know who to move to bench (though typically it’s fairly easy to make an educated guess on this part)
Jordan Henderson to bench, can you switch my formation to 4-1-2-3 and put Mata next to Silva and Kroos back or is that too much to ask?
Can do. I’ll set it up as a 2nd formation that way if you want to go back when he’s back next week then it’s easy to go back and forth
Swap Gomez in for Carvajal if he can’t go or I need to make the switch now. Edit: also a pulled groin but still played for 31 minutes? Classic FIFA.
my plan is to try and do a table after every match week, so i'll have the first one done when i get in to work tomorrow morning
as always, let me know if i'm missing anything as i get this seasons table figured out, and that includes suggestions for readability or similar things
Going to Crew STH season kickoff event tonight so not sure what time sim will be. Might not have enough time to do all 11 matches beforehand so likely afterwards
