2019 Youth Candidates

22319dbac01135676a5ce9da6dc2bc11.png

And the day that the season rolls over we have our new youth candidates!

Is this wrong or have I misunderstood? 

  1. Don't they know you are doing a Youth Only save. They have to give you at least 1x 5.0 PA player. (It's da rulez!)
  2. The Island isn't in Colombia is it? Shouldn't they be...... something else in exactly the same way that Cardiff and Swansea and the like generate Welsh Newgens? Or have I missed something?

So that's the second phase table, the overall table, and the average points table, the only thing that matters though is that we didn't get relegated!

Where is this Island? Land of the Giants or something? 

A 6'4" striker and a 6'6" striker, and then a 6'5" centre-half just for good measure. :cool:

If I remember correctly South Sudan was land of the giants, I think I assembled an entire squad where the shortest player was 6'4"!

And the chairman sold two of our best youth players thanks to offers that were too good to refuse.

Are they really good offers for the league or is that sarcasm? 

How much is the best player at your club worth and what is the biggest out-going transfer in Colombia in the last few seasons?

Another win moves us up to 19th and we have just 3 more games to save ourselves from relegation.

Excuse my ignorance but what determines relegation? (Because it doesn't seem to be the league).

Average points over 2 different seasons? :kriss::idiot:

Sarcasm, we should have been able to hold on to them, our highest valued player is Joan España at £135,000 whilst the most expensive outgoing transfer is Kevin Balanta's £2.4m move from Deportivo Cali to Atletico Nacional in 2019.

Average points over 1-3 different seasons.

There was something like this in a save last year, where someone tried to rule the whole of South America. Possibly even Makoto.

 

From what was discussed in that thread, apologies for not finding it to link to but I will try later on, the system is a rolling three season average league table.

if you are promoted, as Makoto was, your points are averaged over that season to make it fair compared to other teams who have more games, but it rewards consistency (read bigger teams).

What it means is that a big club can survive one poor season if they have two good seasons to balance it with, whereas a small team is constantly scrapping to get a good year that they can rely on.

We survived! It's going to be very tough next season though.

And with us playing most of the games this month at home, we were unbeaten with a couple of big wins!
