Important note for newcomers, unless you have a forced change because someone is hurt bad enough they can’t play or they are suspended due to card, I can’t make changes to away squads, only home. So if you decide to make a change at some point, or have someone returning from injury/suspension, it’s possible that won’t occur as soon as they are available but the next home match No changes that aren’t due to suspension/injury until after the 10th league match unless it sticks with the same starting XI formula of 2/2/2/2/2/wildcard. Some leniency after that and with injuries/suspensions. This is for league, for the cup/UCL, I’m pretty lenient
Here is a list of returning users and who they had last season Topper Bottoms - DC United - Done SugarShaun - City - Done skrouse - Spurs - Done tne - Lyon - Done Spontaneous Cumbustion - Dortmund - Done Popovio - Werder Bremen - Done roonskie - Inter - Done Bankz - Milan - Done Druce - Barcelona - Done nexus - Real Madrid - Done DelapThrows - Stoke City - Done MA - Atlanta - Done zeberdee - Kaizer Chiefs - Done
Please confirm if you plan to keep those clubs. NoleNBlue - Bayern - Done bwi2 - IFK Goteborg - Done Owsley - Ajax - Done Pasta88 - Benfica - Done BayouMafia - Fulham - Done TheFreak55 - Manchester United - Done Willpépé - Bordeaux - Done You guys can feel free to choose any that aren’t already claimed from last season
BayouMafia are you being Fulham? Spontaneous Cumbustion Bankz Druce nexus MA Do I have you guys all correct?
MA is Atlanta United. TheFreak55 is Manchester United but has some Atlanta United players. But if you want to win, root for nexus or myself. If you want the excitement of a relegation battle, Popovio is your guy
So here’s the breakdown on our clubs: EPL - 3 Championship - 2 Ligue 1 - 2 Bundesliga - 3 Serie A - 2 Eredivisie - 1 Primeira Liga - 1 (ROW) South African Premier League - 1 LaLiga - 2 Allsvenskan - 1 MLS - 2 So to fill out the UCL, I’m filling in 12 cpu clubs from different leagues and just using current standings to determine clubs. These clubs have no one selected from them so putting them in as is. Austrian Bundesliga - LASK Pro League - Club Brugge Superligaen - FC Midtjylland Greece Super League - Olympiacos Switzerland Super League - St. Gallen Turkey Super Lig - Trabzonspor Ukraine Premier League - Shakhtar Donetsk I’ll fill in rosters on a few from bigger leagues as well Ligue 1 - PSG German Bundesliga - RB Leipzig Serie A - Juventus Primeira Liga - FC Porto LaLiga - Sevilla
I’ll try to hit the last 2 guys stuff at lunch so that after work (4:30ET) I can set up the league, Cup and UCL and sim.
Club - Star Rating - Attack/Midfield/Defense Ajax 5 star 86/83/82 Atlanta United 5 84/84/83 DC United 5 84/85/82 Dortmund 5 85/84/83 FC Barcelona 5 86/85/84 FC Bayern 4.5 85/81/81 Fulham 5 82/84/85 Girondins de Bordeaux 5 86/82/84 IFK Göteborg 5 83/83/85 Inter 5 87/82/84 Kaizer Chiefs 5 83/84/79 Manchester City 5 81/84/84 Manchester United 5 84/82/81 Milan 5 85/83/81 Olympique Lyon 5 85/81/83 Real Madrid 5 87/85/83 SL Benfica 4.5 85/82/79 Tottenham Hotspur 5 85/83/83 Stoke City 5 85/83/83 Werder Bremen 5 84/84/82
League is set up. Just set up FA Cup and what I did was put each of us in place of EPL clubs then went and added them back in place of lower clubs. It went ahead and simmed the first couple rounds since none of us were in. Some highlights: Round 1 Arsenal 0-4 Bournemouth Round 2 Brighton 2-1 Aston Villa Round 3 Matches (featuring users) Fulham vs Lyon Nottingham Forest vs Dortmund Manchester United vs Bournemouth Middlesbrough vs DC United Reading vs Stoke City Bordeaux vs Bristol Rovers Leeds United vs Tottenham Ajax vs Burnley Real Madrid vs Bremen Inter vs Kaizer Chiefs Atlanta United vs West Brom Manchester City vs Benfica Sunderland vs Göteborg Barcelona vs Bristol City Milan vs Wolves Bayern vs Sheffield Wednesday
With us having no sports I’ll probably stream all sims in case anyone wants to watch. Mixer.com/Sugarshaun001 In case anyone wants to see the UCL draw
I randomize until we have no 2 clubs from same country in a group. Attempt 1: Fulham and Stoke in Group E Attempt 2: Bayern and Bremen in Group C Attempt 3: Success
Group A: Inter, FC Midtjylland, PSG, Manchester United Group B: Stoke City, Milan, RB Leipzig, Olympiacos Group C: Kaizer Chiefs, Lyon, Bayern, Sevilla Group D: LASK, Atlanta United, Bordeaux, Manchester City Group E: Ajax, Trabzonspor, Lazio, Bremen Group F: Benfica, Tottenham, Shakhtar, Göteborg Group G: Real Madrid, DC United, Dortmund, Porto Group H: Fulham, St Gallen, Club Brugge, Barcelona
What the fuck. This year they changed it, it would normally slowly sim through the match but now it just skips to the end and I can’t see everything that happened. Jesus Christ EA

Guys, because of how they’re doing the sim, I won’t be able to give the minute of everything if too much happens in one match. Takes a bit of the excitement out too waiting to see if we get a late goal.
