Makoto Nakamura Posted November 13, 2021 Author Share Posted November 13, 2021 2026 End of Season Review At the 5th attempt we've managed to get promoted to the 4th tier! No big dip in form this season sees us finish seven points clear of 2nd placed Bjorevatn and now we can look forward to a new challenge and try and stay in a league with four relegation spots if I remember correctly. For some reason the Best XI pages didn't update this season, I can still take pictures of the starting 11 though. Lars Søgård Sami Kolpus (YP1d) - Klaus Ek Mannsverk (YP2g) - Jim Neilsen (YP1g) - Vebjørn Atle Strømme Kim Steven Sara (YP1a) Ole Martin Steen - Johnny Solberg (YP2a) Ole Bjørn Jensen (YP1c) Frode Mæland Steffen Klitgaard (YP1o) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been managing Abertillery Excelsior in Wales and Honningsvag in Norway, Wales has a pretty low youth rating and Norway I was in the middle of nowhere. I'm thinking the best route is to revisit Brazil, they have the highest youth rating and to manage a team from Sao Paulo since they have the highest attraction and one of the highest city populations in the game. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The harder the challenge the more fun for us to read! But I guess that depends on whether you want a youth only challenge where you can grow quickly or if you prefer the long slog, seeing lowly nations start to produce quality regens after a lot of hard graft is the most rewarding for me, i still remember that quality Bhutanese striker you had!

I've always had a great time doing Youth Only saves in England. I find the challenge is there without being overwhelming, and since my focus is always on the 'end-game' of being in the Premier League and winning the PL and CL titles - the latter having eluded me since I started these saves back in 2016 - I find it always takes me up until the new version is released. Basically, to cut a long story short, it works for me even if it isn't the most hardcore challenge there is. It is fun, and I get to enjoy quality world-class Intakes in the most competitive league in the world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
