Last Striker Standing 2015 - SEASON 3 FINISHED! POOR OUTPUTS ALL AROUND

I'm guessing that there is a 0.1% chance of Wales making the World Cup.. I'm praying they can do it though.. May have to hope for the Euros though. :P

Yeah same with Sweden.. Usually pretty close but never actually makes it

Some slightly surprising results here as Belgium, Portugal, Holland, Mexico and Germany all fail to make it out of the group stages. The host, squeeze through narrowly in a group that could would have been difficult for any team. At this stage Brazil are favorites as they bull doze through all competition and register 10 goals in the group stage alone.

1. Vadvi Goran - 2 Real Madrid Goals + 24 Castilla Goals + 3 Int Goals + 1 Group Stage Goal + 3 Knock Out Stage Goals + 3 WC Awards = 142
Vadvi had the greatest season of any player up to date. Not only did he bang in the goals for Real Madrid Castilla team with 24 goals in 30 games, Vadvi also went on to lift the 2018 WC on home soil with Russia! Vadvi played a huge role in the triumph, with 4 WC goals including 3 in the knockout stage. Was rewarded for his efforts with the FIFA WC Best Young player award and was named as a substitute in the FIFA WC Team of The Tournament. A truly remarkable season for the ambitious Russian giant.

2. Mille Braun - 28 Sevilla Goals + 1 Int Goal = 116
The argument could be made that Mille's season was actually superior to that of Vadvi's. Braun knocked in 28 goals in 54 games for Sevilla, including 18 in the league and 6 Europa league goals. Mille also finished behind a 33 years old Cristiano Ronaldo for LIGA BBVA Top Scorer while leading Sevilla to a 4th place finish. Mille was also outstanding in leading Sevilla to the Europa League Championship! Also took home the Liga BBVA Young Player of The Year Award. Football fans around the world truly missed out in the summer of 2018 as Sweden failed to qualify for the WC, Braun was in fine form but had to watch from home.

3. Matias Quezada - 12 Manchester City Goals + 8 NYC FC Goals + 5 Int Goals = 84
Matias had a fine season in the United States and added 12 Manchester City Goals upon his return also had 5 International Goals but had multiple very disappointing performances in the WC and failed to score a single goal.

4. Henri James - 23 Rotherham Goals = 46
22 League Goals and a runner up for the Championship Golden Boot were the highlights for what was a great individual season for Henri but a poor season for Rotherham. Rotherham could only manage a 20th place finish. Despite his knack for scoring, England did not choose Henri for the WC team and it cost them, they lacked the punch of a true goal scorer, a punch many England fans believed Henri would have provided although he's still yet to make a senior international appearance.

5. Greg Christie - 23 Swansea Goals = 46
Greg broke Swansea's record for most goals in a season and led them to a 3rd place finish but no promotion. Scotland did not qualify for the WC which was a shame.

6. Daniel Nderi - 21 Leicester Goals = 42
Daniel finally left Liverpool on a season long loan and scored 21 goals in 47 games for Leicester. Kenya did now qualify for the WC but Daniel will look to continue his fine form for Liverpool next season.

7. Ricardo Goyzueta - 10 West Ham Goals = 40
Ricardo only scored 10 goals in 37 Games for West Ham but registered 40 points on the merit of the difficulty of the league. West Ham finished in 16th place but Ricardo has already signed a contract with Napoli after his current contract expires after the season. A shame that West Ham couldn't make a profit from a sale. Peru also failed to qualify for the World Cup.

8. Marc Aitken - 18 Huddersfield Goals = 36
Marc registered 18 Huddersfield goals resulting in 36 points, however Scotland failed to qualify for the WC and his season was cut short.

9. Tukul Arwana - 5 Peruvia Goals + 2 Indonesian Goals = 28
Tukul had a terrible season for Peruvia, scoring only 5 goals and did little to help as Peruvia got relegated. This marks the second time in three years that Tukul has suffered relegation, shockingly Indonesia did not qualify for the WC!

10. Amit Rao - 7 Arsenal Goals = 28
Amit played just 12 games for the Arsenal first team but produced with 7 goals. Still yet to register a game for India but does not matter for much. India failed to qualify for the WC

11. Dard Hoxhaj - 8 Olympiakos Goals + 1 Int Goal = 20
Dard managed only 14 games for Olympiakos but luckily produced with 8 goals, Albania also failed to qualify for the WC despite his efforts.

12. Josh Albright - 5 Juventus Goals = 20
Josh chose to remain at Juventus and played 17 total games, scored 5 goals but did not make the Belgium National Team for the World Cup.
View attachment 315457

13. Lewie Roberts - 13 Peterborough Goals = 20
Lewie Roberts lived by the international goal but also died by it as he failed to register a single international goal, international goals were the saving grace for him in previous seasons. He was not helped by the fact that Wales failed to qualify for the World Cup.

NEXT SEASON WILL MARK THE FIRST OF TWO ELIMINATIONS!! GOOD LUCK!!!
 
Oh man, Tukul's attributes don't seem to develop much as I'd hoped lol

What a beastly season for the lads at the 1st, 2nd & 3rd places! Congrats.
 
Yes!! Brilliant!!! After all the derping's said and done I rock the World Cup and beast for Castilla. Sorry Lewie but you should have chose a team that will get to the World Cup yet play you (I chose Russia obviously)
 
What a season for the top three guys! And Belgium goes to the WC without me, and draws with Iraq! Congratulations to Vadvi and Russia on lifting the world cup. Unless the next season is extremely productive for me, I see myself as a front-runner for elimination. Juventus hasn't been that great a career move I guess :P

;) GOD **** IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Told you I would probably be eliminated if I didn't have a good national record, as me and Josh tied, but I had more goals in a lower league...

Mate don't worry my story will kick off soon!!! Btw is isn't advertisement ;)
 
Loving this, hopefully my player can push on and find his break through season to the top level at club and international level, congrats to Goran for winning the WC!
 
Wow those physicals... Hopefully another good season at Leicester will keep Daniel in the game.
 
1. Mille Braun - 25 Sevilla Goals + 1 Sweden Goal = 104 points
Mille Braun added another fantastic season for Sevilla with 25 goals in 51 games and won the UEFA Super Cup with Sevilla. Mille Braun is starting to attract some real interest from many footballing giants around the world but looks set to stay in Sevilla for now.

2. Matias Quezada - 19 Manchester City Goals + 4 Mexico Goals = 92 points
Matias had 19 goals in 36 games for Manchester City and looks to put his poor WC behind him as he banged 4 goals in just 6 games for the National team. Manchester City won yet another PL Trophy!

3. Vadvi Goran - 13 Real Madrid Goals + 6 Russia Goals = 76 points
Vadvi finally broke into the Real Madrid team and added to the team with 13 goals in 28 games. Vadvi continued his great career for Russia with 6 goals in 10 games and a second placed finish in the UEFA Nations League. Real Madrid also added to their massive trophy cabinet with a La Liga trophy and a Super Copa win.

4. Amit Rao - 13 Arsenal Goals = 52 points
Amit scored 13 goals in 34 games and had a good season for Arsenal, the most interesting bit however was his first international game for India.

5. Ricardo Goyzueta - 12 West Ham Goals = 48 points
Ricardo added 12 final goals for West Ham before completing his free move to Napoli. Ricardo played 5 Peru Games but could not score a goal.

6. Dard Hoxhaj - 18 Olympiakos Goals + 2 Albania Goals = 44 points
Although Dard started the season off with a broken ankle, he found his form extremely quick upon return and scored 18 goals in just 28 games. Dard also added 2 Albania goals to continue his international career.

7. Josh Albright - 11 Juventus Goals = 44 points
Post World Cup disappointment, Belgium finally gave Josh Albright a game. Albright also had a breakout year for Juventus and scored 11 goals in 27 games for the bianconeri. Josh will look to challenge for the top spots every season now. Josh always had the attributes but never got the games both domestically and internationally, that looks to no longer be a problem.

8. Greg Christie - 21 Swansea Goals = 42 points
Greg scored quite a lot of goals for Swansea but suffered due to the level of the league. Greg is known to be looking for a move to a bigger club around the world but Swansea continue to make astronomical and unrealistic counter offers. We look set for a transfer saga for the ages. Sadly, Scotland look to be going nowhere fast.

9. Henri James - 21 Wigan Goals = 42 points
Henri is the last competitor yet to have made a senior international appearance and it doesn't look to be coming anytime soon while Chelsea continue to loan him out to the lower leagues.

10. Tukul Arwana - 17 Peruvia Goals = 34 points
Tukul had quite the season and was the Peruvian hero by bringing them back to the Serie A comfortably. Tukul received the Serie B player of the year and the Serie B team of the year on route to 17 goals in 32 games.

11. Marc Aitken - 16 Huddersfield Goals = 32 points
Marc with 16 goals in 34 games did not do enough internationally and was eliminated.

12. Daniel Nderi - 12 Leicester Goals + 1 Kenya Goal = 28 points
Daniel was bothered by various injuries throughout the year and his 12 goals in 33 Leicester games was far from enough to keep him alive.


TRANSFER UPDATE
​Matias Quezada remains at Manchester City despite interest from Bayern Munich
Vadvi Goran remains at Real Madrid
Mille Braun remains at Sevilla but getting real interests from massive clubs around Europe
Amit Rao remains at Arsenal
Greg Christie remains at Swansea but actively seeking a move
Daniel Nderi returns to Leicester on loan
Henri James returns to Wigan on loan
Marc Aitken returns to Huddersfield on loan
Josh Albright remains at Juventus
Dard Hoxhaj remains at Olympiakos
Ricardo Goyzueta completes his free move to Napoli
Tukul Arwana joins Genoa for 21 mil.

 
Well, too bad that individual awards don't really count towards scoring lol

By the way can we have a look at how Anton Fischer-Nielsen attributes developed?
