Well here we are season 3 complete and with a full season using 433 GOALS.
A fantastic entertaining 1st half of the season only saw 1 surprising loss coming against Birmingham on pens to get ko'd from QF of the CC. Scored a ton of goals but also quite leaky at the back, would like more clean sheets but the wins are more important. The turn of the new year started fantastic with it being the 1st game hitting double figures for goals but the next 2 away league games were some what frustrating losing 4-3 in both games and throwing away leads made me question my tactic in the bigger away games. I tried tweaking it a bit against Atletico Madrid & Chelsea which brought on my other 2 losses of the season. My next big away game came at OT, it was very tight in the league(I think 1 pt was in it at the time) so with some more tweaking I set up using 2 Volantes and although the stats went in their favour I pulled off a great result and kept a clean sheet winning 0-2 which put me in control of the league. I then again tried this new set up against spurs in the semi final of the FA Cup, I little more difficult to break them down but a couple of super subs in Brewster & Ojo saw me through in ET. I used this set up in 2 more games, away at WHU & in the champions league final, WHU are usually my bogey team so I was a bit sceptical going all out attack, It worked superbly against madrid taking control of the final and getting the job done by HT, All madrid offered was fouls and 8 yellow cards and 1 red.
Overall another great season, but also a reality check with thinking I cant go all out attack against the big teams away from home and not expect to get punished, I may keep tweaking because even though the Volante set up got me results I did get my goal peppered a lot and quite dominated in parts of the game, I don't like giving away so many chances to the opposition.
