End of season awards
First of all I would like to say a massive thank you to everybody who took part in the first season of this game, you all make this game what it is and none of the fun would be possible without you!
Also a huge congratulations to both Atletico Madrid and Juventus who picked up the first pieces of silverware.
Now there is a little matter of chairman of the year to sort out! The voting was incredibly tight, and with only one vote in it, the winner of the chairman of the year award is...
Lewie100!
Lewie did a fantastic job of guiding Leverkusen to a 6th place finish, upsetting a lot of the top teams in the division and completely surpassing his pre-season odds of 2000-1 for the title. Favourites to go down, Leverkusen invested wisely and got some tremendous players in including Jackson Martinez, Isco and Christian Eriksen. Long man it continue! As a prize for winning this honour, Lewie will get the first pick of the draft before the 2nd season!
For the end of season awards, I also asked you to vote for player and signing of the season, and the results were pretty unanimous. To begin with, the winner of the player of the year award is....
Carlos Tevez!
Carlos was signed by Znik for Juventus in the summer window for a fee of £8.8 million, which turned out to be money well spent! Tevez scored 29 goals in 39 appearances in league and cup, also adding 12 assists, with an average rating of 7.53. He finished second in the scoring charts for the Platinum league and also managed second in the assist chart, only beaten by the superb Juan Mata. Congratulations Znik! as a reward for your player winning player of the season, he is automatically exempt from draft proceedings, without you having to use a protected pick!
Signing of the season was also an extremely clear cut choice following the voting. So without any further ado, your signing of the season is....
Zlatan Ibrahimovic!
Zlatan joined Milan from PSG for free in the initial draft selections for an astonishing £300k a week which raised a few eyebrows. He soon become the sole reason for Milan surviving the first season in the Platinum League, scoring 19 goals in the league and starting all but two matches. Zlatan also wins the golden boot in the league. Congratulations Disclaimer! Zlatan will also be immune to the draft without the need to use a protected pick!
Lastly, it would appear that the game does not select a Platinum League team of the season, so I have been forced to create one myself! forgive me for the dodgy formation, but the team of the season is as follows!!
---Jan Oblak---
Philipp Lahm --------------Aymeric Laporte-----------Daniele Rugani-----------------Ricardo Rodriguez
-----Paul Pogba-----
Lionel Messi-----------------Juan Mata------------Christian Eriksen
Zlatan Ibrahimovic------------Carlos Tevez
There are no prizes for team of the season, just for a bit of fun and satisfaction if you managed to get players in!
