# Walsall_Craig : hey joannes3000 i think ive found a wonderkind into my fourth season with liverpool, i brought him from my local team walsall as my scout said he is "dubbed the next Peter Crouch" how do you post a picture onto here?

I hope your player reaches his potential and dominates for you!

I upload my alt-f9 screens to imageshack and then post them one of two ways:

[img]link to image[/img] - for full screenshots
[img=link to image]link to image.th[/img] - for expandable thumbnails
# l3nnart : could you post a screenshot with caca's profile? that 80+ goals season is just ridicolus!

Here you go.



Please remember that the 80+ total was for all competitive games that season - League, Cup, Continental. I wish the history tab would show that entire breakdown instead of just league stats. :(



And lastly, here is his biography.

wow, he reminds me alot of my dominguez, a mexican striker I had during my time at Standard and Real, my alltime favourite, along with james rodriguez in the same save... yhea i realized that it was all competitions, but it donesn't make it any less insane... do you play him as the poacher or trequarista?

Caca is the poacher.

whats your go to tac when you get a red card?

If I want to play defensively I'll go with a lone striker and play a 441. Almost always, my poacher will be the striker I leave in and my center mid playing as an advanced midfielder can help keep attacks going without the trequart striker on the pitch. Then I look to switch my team strategy to either counter or defensive, depending on the flow of the game.

If I want to play offensively I'll cut out one of my centerbacks and play 342. I take the player that normally plays as the attacking center mid and have him play as an AMC to provide even more direct attacking pressure. And once again, depending on the flow of the game I usually bounce around between balanced and control.
Dammit, I knew this contract could come back to bite me in the ass! My starting left midfielder would not budge on an 11m release clause in his latest contract. After several teams threatened to activate the clause, I tried to renegotiate to either remove the clause entirely or at least increase the value of it. I had no such luck, and it looks like Liverpool is serious this time:



Jordi is an ideal wide midfielder for us, and even though we don't have to rely on too many players outside of our striker duo, I won't pretend that we wouldn't miss a player of Jordi's caliber. Just having him out on the wings as a threat helps open up the middle of the pitch for out strikeforce to do their thing. Here's a quick snapshot:



The leading candidate to replace Jordi is an 18 y/o that I poached from Arsenal last season. I think he has the overall skills to contend for a starting role, but I don't think he's quite ready yet:



If Jordi decides to leave, I will more than likely look to enter the transfer market for a replacement player. We don't have to splash on anyone since I'm planning on having Jones groomed for the starting left midfielder position within two seasons, but as always, we have the funds and the drive to make a big move for the right kind of player.

do you keep the wingbacks on the flanks or do you push them inside?
# l3nnart : do you keep the wingbacks on the flanks or do you push them inside?

I keep everyone else in the same position. Since I don't practice any formations other than my base 442, I try to keep that shape as best as I can, even when I have to adjust due to player ejections.
