Chelsea Youth Challenge

[Sam91]

Selling him to you was one of Fergie's greatest moves

He was signed to your lot for like a day or something stupid. Worst bit of business we ever done. Well maybe not as bad as Mutu, Kezman and Jarosik!!

Monthly Review


A very good month. All games were simple enough bar the Champions League game, its hanging in the balance but we should get a win at home really. Eden Hazard picked up a knock in the Wigan game but Lucas Piazon has done a fantastic job filling in for him. Will Hughes and Nathan Redmond also deserve a mention, they've both been superb all season and really are key players for us now.



Player of the Month

Rafael Rotondo

10 Games and 9 goals already. Just been an inspiring signing. Hopefully lead the line for many years.

Sent scouts out to Countries, looking for players with a max age of 21 and PA of 3 and a half stars... not too hard. Plus always look at PSG, they seem to always chuck out some insane payers!!

Also look at Under 21 International teams

Also look at this screenie, surely the oldest looking 14 year old ever:

Monthly Review


Another great month in which we remained professional coming into the back end of the season. The league is still up for grabs but we should be able to win it as long as we don't mess up hugely next month. In the FA Cup we've made the semi's in which we will play Stoke, the other tie being City v QPR.

In the Champions League we swept past Leverkusen and were rewarded with another German side, the tie was tight then in the last ten minutes both teams went a bit mad. We obviously came out better due to the away goals rule but will still need to play well in the second leg as all they have to do is beat us on the night.



Player of the Month

Lucas Piazon

Although he's not a first choice player he's a great back up/rotation player. His hat-trick against Norwich was just so so important.

7 Points clear with 7 games left, surely we wont let it slip..​

 

[TicTactition]

You cannot knock my beloved Dortmund out of the Champions League!!

 

[AJ0207]

Reckon you've got it in you to get the treble? Be great if you do!

 

[KaiRooney]

Hey Sam91, Can u pls post profiles of Chalaboh, Hughes and Redmond pls as i m currently thinking abt starting a No Foreigners challenge....

Maybe, big teams left in the CL and City in the FA Cup.

Hey Sam91, Can u pls post profiles of Chalaboh, Hughes and Redmond pls as i m currently thinking abt starting a No Foreigners challenge....

Here you go, would strongely recommend signing all 3. They're key players for England now and for Chelsea too.

Might have a break from this save lads and start a new one with my local side and try to take them to the BPL. Let me know if you're interested in seeing that.

Who would that be?

Who would that be?

Horsham Town

 

[MiloKA]

Sounds an interesting idea, would definitely follow. Would you try and focus on youth and play the long game or try and do it as fast as possible?

Mix of both, I always sign young players in my saves.

 

[Klippybo]

The dreaded "break" time lol. Its a testament to peeps that stick with a story/save long enough to need a break and it comes with every save!

Methinks my first Bilbao save only didnt have one as I was determined to keep Aitor going strong!!! I am actually considering taking one with Atalanta as I am not sure if people are that interested in it anymore as there arent many comments from peeps - I am enjoying it though!!!! (Keep on thinking Bilbao again will be a decent save especially without getting cash for Llorente to fund a big signing!)

I will follow as usual on your next challenge.
