NepentheZ Posted June 22, 2009 Author Share Posted June 22, 2009 Just for you all to see, Smylie has 1301 Goals for me now I'm going to go through my photobucket files, and drag every EOS screeny I have for him, and put them in a safe place Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
5ergio Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Aahh. It's such a pleasurable picture to see legendary Wallace line up with Smylie. You've lived the dreams of many FM players Nep, having two devastating strikers in your arsenal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest roberto922 Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Wallace just doesn't compare to Smylie, his record is out of this world. I don't think anyone will get 1000 goals on FM 09 btw, strikers hardly score in comparison to in FM 08 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NepentheZ Posted June 22, 2009 Author Share Posted June 22, 2009 yeah. Lets hope FM10 is a goal fest Oddly, I got 1,000 goals with a guy in FM06 (as did dafuge and a few others) - I couldn't get close in FM07 - did it in FM08 (again, with a few others) - but couldn't get close in FM09 - I see a pattern developing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest roberto922 Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I just want them to get it balanced for FM10, they seem to have gone from one extreme to the other, I'm usually lucky to get a 20 a season striker when I'm winning titles, the midfield scores more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NepentheZ Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 I hope so. Although, I'm still fighting to keep him every season. Every big club in the world bids for him each transfer window, and he usually gets unhappy. However, each time we (or him personally) - win something, he acknowledges my contribution, or becomes happy the club is winning, and I can offer him a 1 year extension (I try to keep his contract 5 years at all times). The only thing is, the board have accepted a large number of bids on my behalf. They've sold 8 or 9 star players over the years, for frees from £5,000,000 to about £10,000,000 - So i fear, that if these clubs up the bid for him, to around 7 or 8 million, the board will just accept it. They're already offering in the region of £3,500,000 too, so I'm getting worried..!! What makes me laugh is, Smylie is clearly a great player, and they only offer such little for him, and Arsenal have just bought this guy for 40.5 MILLION. Now, I just don't get it. He looks rubbish.

NepentheZ Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 Oh, and the average striker will have an 18-20 year career. 8 season : 1301 Goals. So on that basis 16 Season : 2602 18 Season : 2927 20 Season : 3252 Plus any goals he gets for N. Ireland. So realistically, we could be looking at a 3,000 goal career here, if he stays with me.

d-machine Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I've got someone who probably won't reach 1000, but still it'll be fun to see how he goes Lindsay Zullo 25 so far this season. add to that the 82 goals he's already scored for us which means he currently on 107 for the club, plus the 8 goals in 7 caps. But he's only 21, so if I can keep him through his peak, he should easily hit 700+, and from there who knows? He is way to good for the A-League, but at the moment he seems content to keep signing new contracts. The disadvantage is probably the lack of games.

hasdgfas Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Well, I looked at Nunez in my current season. He's just getting over an injury, which is why his stats are worse now than they were at age 21. This is his league history. He only has 218 goals right now(counting cups and European matches) because he's really injury-prone and I didn't get him until he was 21, which was a bit of a problem for goal count.

NepentheZ Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 Not really, until recently. They've always been hovering around the 50th rank in the world, since I can remember pretty much, but since 2040, (I'm now mid 2041 - they've shot up to 20th in the rankings, and thats largely down to a massive increase in my players being bought into the full team. Downey (AMC/F), Smylie (AMC/F), McIlvor (GK) have all been big players in the sqaud. There are also 3 or 4 players who are from my youth team, but not in my team anymore that are in the squad. They are all playing in the Prem / Championship in England, which will mean they have access to better training facilities. They've never actually reached the finals of a major competition, but have a great chance for the 2042 World Cup, currently 2nd in the group after 6 of 10 games. (Won 5, lost 1). They've started beating teams like Denmark, Poland, Slovenia consistently, but are still losing to big teams like England, France etc. In this group, they have England, Denmark, Slovenia, Cyrpus and Faroe Islands. They've only lost to England, and with the last 4 games, they should be able to get enough points to get to the play-off places as best runner up. I really hope they do make it to a major finals, because, when they don't win the tourny, the manager will probably get sacked or resign, meaning I can take over. The under 21's and under 19 N. Irish teams, are completely flooded with my players. Apart from the new batch (I'm literally at the reset date for leagues, so they've just been "born" into the game) - all of my U-18 team have been capped at U-19 level, and 1 at U-21 level 1 time. My Reserves have 3 fully capped players, and 33 players capped at U-21 level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got 1 MC/R with quite good attributes for a right midfielder. 11 Crossing, 11 Dribbling, 11 first touch, 12 technique, good work rate, good positioning, good team work. But passing / physical attributes, aren't too good. He's the best of the bunch visually.

Do you have a lot of cup games? That might help for the lack of league games. Well, at the very most I'll be able to play around 41 games. 21 league games + 4 finals + 4 preseason cup + 12 Asian games. If I win the Asian Champions League then its another 3 games in the Club World Championship, but I won't be able to play the group stages of the Champions League the next season, cutting the 12 games to 6. At the moment, he seems to be turning into a provider for the team just as much as a goalscorer, and its cutting down on the goals he's scoring. He's been top of my goals and assists charts for the last 3 seasons. Nunez looks fantastic, i've never seen a player that good Smylie is just ripping apart Northern Ireland.

NepentheZ Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 Nep how did you get such good players for that league:( 33 seasons of hard work. I only get the odd great player here and there. And in general, the standard of players altogether in FM has dropped massively. So world class players for big teams, are only as good as players that play in low prem / high champ in 2008. So any player that comes through my youth team that has a specialist skill, (like, really fast + good crossing) will just be a tyrant in the league. These are the players bought from me this season from Prem and Champ clubs. (All the players, barring Rodrigo and McIvor, were in my reserves, and not good enough to play for my first team) Stephen McFadden - Aston Villa Rodrigo - Aston Villa Kamil Pavlik - Aston Villa Mark Hudson - Barnsley Lee McCormick - Man City Colin McIvor - West Ham Chris Burnell - West Ham Brian Archer - Derby County I mean, they wasn't exactly bought for massive money, but thats because Smylie @ £1,200,000 is the highest valued player in my squad, and I'd personally value him at around £30,000,000. But the fact is, they're being bought, and played by these clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NepentheZ Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 Oh, I meant to add, "So any player that comes through my youth team that has a specialist skill, (like, really fast + good crossing) will just be a tyrant in the league." Someone like McFadden, for example, would score 40-50 goals in a season for me, if he played regularly, due to the fact he is fast, and has good finishing. However, there are a lot of the other clubs really starting to make big leaps now, and Linfield, Glentoran and Portadown are always tough matches. During the season. Because they all get into Europe each year (we get 2 CL spots and 3 UEFA Cup) - they are getting a lot more money than they are used to, meaning stadiums and facilities are being upgraded quicker, meaning they are developing their own good youth players. This is working well for smaller clubs too, because they're able to buy or loan the ones that don't cut it for the "big 4", but are still the best players in the other teams in the leagues. I do think its only a matter of time before my untouched dominance domestically is broken, but I also still think I'll be bagging a lot of trophies. Its quite noticeable in the current seasons too, because I seldom hit 10+ Goals in a match now, where it was almost every game about 10 seasons ago. Fwiw, I've lost 1 League game in 580 games. Which is just stupid. There was a season however, that I didn't pick up one of the Domestic Cups, which was the N. Irish Cup, 2037, in which, Linfield knocked me out in the Semi-Final, and went on to win it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all playing in the Prem / Championship in England, which will mean they have access to better training facilities. They've never actually reached the finals of a major competition, but have a great chance for the 2042 World Cup, currently 2nd in the group after 6 of 10 games. (Won 5, lost 1). They've started beating teams like Denmark, Poland, Slovenia consistently, but are still losing to big teams like England, France etc. In this group, they have England, Denmark, Slovenia, Cyrpus and Faroe Islands. They've only lost to England, and with the last 4 games, they should be able to get enough points to get to the play-off places as best runner up. I really hope they do make it to a major finals, because, when they don't win the tourny, the manager will probably get sacked or resign, meaning I can take over. The under 21's and under 19 N. Irish teams, are completely flooded with my players. Apart from the new batch (I'm literally at the reset date for leagues, so they've just been "born" into the game) - all of my U-18 team have been capped at U-19 level, and 1 at U-21 level 1 time. My Reserves have 3 fully capped players, and 33 players capped at U-21 level. Since this post, N. Ireland have played 2 more QUAL games. A 5-1 win v Slovenia, and an exceptional 4-2 win v ENGLAND have propelled N. Ireland to top of the group, and are clear by 4 points, with Denmark and Faroe Islands to go. Assuming they get the win v Faroe Islands, they will qualify for their first ever Major Finals as group winners. Here is the group Pos|Inf|Team |Pld|Won|Drn|Lst|For| Ag|G.D| Pts 1st| |N. Ireland | 8 | 7 | 0 | 1 | 18| 7 | 11| 21 2nd| |England | 8 | 5 | 2 | 1 | 15| 7 | 8| 17 3rd| |Denmark | 8 | 3 | 3 | 2 | 8| 4 | 4| 12 4th| |Slovenia | 8 | 3 | 1 | 4 | 11| 12| -1| 10 5th| |Cyprus | 8 | 1 | 3 | 4 | 7| 14| -7| 6 6th| |F. Islands | 8 | 0 | 1 | 7 | 4| 19|-15| 1 So as you can see, they've all but qualified for the finals..!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-machine Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Lindsay Zullo just finished his latest season with 51 goals in 40 games! So that now leaves him on Games | Goals (Brisbane Roar, Australia) 181 | 167 plus 16 goals in 15 caps for Australia = 183 goals in 196 games. He's only 23 and not in his peak yet, so he could reach the grand total yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
