Just finished my first season with Porto and it's been very impressing. Went unbeaten through the whole league and I ended up with 28-2-0 and 104 goals for and 14 against. Ended up winning everything in Portugal. It's been incredibly solid defensively, even in matches against Man City, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Chelsea I haven't conceded more than two goals. There's just one single match where I've conceded more and that was in my 6-3 victory against Villareal.
This is a screenshot from the 2012/2013 pre-season but it's just to show what line up I used. Rotated a lot in midfield but always had either Defour or Moutinho there along with Markus Henriksen or Fernando. Against weaker teams and matches right before important ones I usually used Arthur Maia, Jonas Svensson, Silvestre Varela and Cristian Rodriguez as wingers to rest Hulk and James Rodriguez.
Kléber pretty much always played as the poacher and I rotated between Walter, Lucas Andersen and Adaílton (brought in mid-season) and sent Jesé out on loan.
At the end of the first season nearly everyone had an avg. rating between 7.20 and 7.80. And as you can see, Kléber has been totally brilliant as the poacher. Just noticed his age has bugged with some other player in the player stats as he's born in 1990.
Had a pretty rough CL group with Man City, Villareal and Dortmund. Ended up winning every match except the away match against City where I lost 1-0 and ended up coming second in the group... and that led to me facing Barcelona in the first knockout stage.
Messi countered when Defour missed his penalty, such a punch in the face. Ended up drawing 2-2 away in a really exciting (and lucky) match and got through on aggregate. Went on to meet Real Madrid next where I lost 0-1 home in a match I should have won and ended up drawing 2-2 away, so Real Madrid won overall.
There's been a lot of yellow cards in the big matches as the screenshots show but in the league it's been totally opposite. I haven't had a single player banned for too many yellow cards and think I just had one red card the whole season. Most of the matches in the national league and cups looked like this one against Benfica.
