2015 Around the World in 800 BatiGoals

[lilgwanz]

Hmmmmm here comes another tough roadblock for Malcolm and Bat to make.Lets see how this unfolds

[JustM1kePlays]

That was quick!

Well played Bati.

Come on Malcom you can do it!

Join Leeds an take us to the promised land

[dirtboy]

Good going, it will be tough attracting him to Holland though

[BatiGoal]

If it was me I'd wait until the summer window, trying to get the funds together in January can be a nightmare.

Ideally definitely. But those big team offers don't come everyday. If I get Man C/Utd or Chelsea before December I'll probably jump at it. If another team I might wait as you suggest.

 

Nice!! Seems like you only moved to Athletico the other day

A season without him may prove a necessary stepping stone of the wrong jobs come up but the challenge will still be intact

Yes I definitely need suggestions after 200 goals in England.

 

Hmmmmm here comes another tough roadblock for Malcolm and Bat to make.Lets see how this unfolds

Easy for me, tougher for him :-)

 

That was quick!

Well played Bati.

Come on Malcom you can do it!

Join Leeds an take us to the promised land

Hehe I wish I could, mate.

 

Good going, it will be tough attracting him to Holland though

Yeah I'll need to make a list of sneaky ways, pick the least worrying and pray.

 

Thanks guys!

[PriZe]

mate you are destroying it! Great player Malcom and truly epic formation haha

 

KIU

[BatiGoal]

Thanks Prize.

Having trouble finding a new club, approaching end of season and nothing yet. Well there's Leeds I know M1ke would be happy but I'd need to sell everyone at the club including the coffee lady to get Malcom in. :wacko:

[leecutler]

Mate you absolutely destroyed La Liga! Going great bati

[BatiGoal]

Mate you absolutely destroyed La Liga! Going great bati

 

Thanks.

Malcom and Atletico seem the perfect fit. He's had another gorgeous season.

 

 

Season 8 -200 goals and beyond-

 

Malcom reached 200 goals in October so it was time to find a new club and continue this journey in England. If I get a good team in December I'll consider my options otherwise I'll wait till the start of next season. No rash decisions needed we're on course for pretty things.

 

October

 

Malcom reached 200 goals in Spain.

 

 

November

 

Mediocre month for the boy. Couple goals here and there. no great games.

 

Job list:

 

Best available job: Burnley - not interested

 

 

December

 

Malcom is still the best!

 

 

 

Best Game of the Month

 

 

4 goals! Sick!!! World Champions!

 

Job list:

 

Best available job: QPR - not interested

 

 

January

 

Best Game of the Month

 

Malcom kills Barcelona with a brace.

 

Job list:

 

Best available job: Liverpool - not interested

 

Offering 50M as transfer budget this number would likely drop to half or so I would never be able to generate enough funds within a couple weeks to seal the deal. Besides, I'm not even sure I'd be able to meet his wage demands. Too risky.

 

 

February

 

Best Game of the Month

 

 

Epic game. Malcom saved the game 2 minutes from time. Shoot out brings us to the final. Classy performance.

 

Job list:

 

Best available job: Hull - not interested

 

 

March

 

Best Game of the Month

 

 

3 points in. Not top but Champions need to win bad games.

 

Job list:

 

Best available job: West Brom - not interested

 

 

April

 

Best Game of the Month

 

 

Not great here as well but Malcom steps up to the plate. 2 Massive goals.

 

Job list:

 

Best available job: Crystal Palace - not interested

 

 

May

 

Best Game of the Month

 

 

I annihilated my favorite team. Come on Man Utd sack that lousy manager and offer me the job.

 

I NEED A JOB IN ENGLAND!!!!!

 

I'll bring Malcom and we'll rule the world.

 

Job list:

 

Best available job: Everton - not interested

 

 

So Malcom and I are still at Atletico. It's June and season 9 is just around the corner. Can I find an English team anytime soon? Hmmm...

[BatiGoal]

Frustrating times at the moment as I can't seem to land an England job. The top EPL teams are all doing OK and not sacking any managers. It's like a dead end at the moment...

 

 

Season 9 - 1st. half -

 

I bought an old buddy of mine back in the Corinthians days to strengthen my Atletico midfield but other than that I'm doing the games with Malcom and checking the job list twice a day. But Malcom too is becoming frustrated.

 

After turning down countless contract extensions from my topman..

 

 

As you see he's reached the MAX. at Atletico so I couldn't offer him anything pretty anyway..so he decides to leave..

 

 

Very cute of course but you're going nowhere. It's July and ideally I'd need to find a club NOW so I'd still have some time to bring him over but the best available job is:

 

July

 

Jobs: France - not interested!

 

Preparing the team..players in their starting positions..off we go. Season 9 has begun and I was hoping to be in England by now.

 

It's August

 

Jobs: Ireland - not interested!

 

September comes

 

Jobs: Stoke - not interested!

 

Hello October

 

Jobs: Leicester - not interested!

 

There's November

 

Jobs: Swansea - not interested!

 

December Days

 

Jobs: Southampton - not interested!

 

The only positive is Malcom's doing his thing but haven't seen a smile of his face for months

 

 

Well done kid.

 

We're in January now..Ideally..again..I'd get my England move NOW as would Malcom but it isn't to be.

 

January

 

Jobs: Dodgy Brazilian teams - not interested!

 

*SIGH*

 

Spending longer than I had hoped for in Spain but there's still time to complete the challenge. Let's remain optimistic and maybe I'll be able to start season 10 in the EPL.

 

Malcom's Goal Tally

 

 

Games: 520

Goals: 533

 

NICE!

[Lee-Roy]

Damn, two countries to go and no promising offers yet? I don't really want to put a prediction to how this is going to go :/

[BatiGoal]

Damn, two countries to go and no promising offers yet? I don't really want to put a prediction to how this is going to go :/

 

Well..there's still the 1KC in the back of my mind but I was expecting to encounter serious problems after the England experience, but can't even get there :wacko:

[billy2shots]

It could prove to be a possitive. This way he will almost be ready for Holland by the time you finish in England. If you complete the 3rd stage too early you will have problems getting him to Holland.

How old is he now?

[BatiGoal]

He's 26.

You're right he's still on track to reach Holland by his 30th birthday.

[Ashez]

IMO there is no rush, as long as he's in Holland by the time he's 32/33 I think he'll manage it .

[BatiGoal]

@Ashez, I'm counting on your experience to get me out of this mess

 

 

Season 9 - 2nd. half -

 

It's Jan 1st and no EPL top team in need of me. If something pops up in say the first week of Jan I could perhaps do a Houdini act and swap teams in a blink of an eye but no such luck today. I'll complete season 9 in Spain and see what's in store for me come season 10.

 

January

 

Jobs: Bolton - not interested!

 

February didn't bring great things. I detect a slight dip in form possibly because he's still pissed off for not being granted new wages. Tough luck! On top of that he got himself injured in training. Having had 2 injury-free seasons I'll take this one for the team.

 

 

February

 

Jobs: Hull - not interested!

 

With Malcom out of action for a while my forward subs are having the time of their lives getting loads of minutes on the pitch. They're loving every minute of Malcom's absence. In the meantime I'm looking at the job list  Zip.

 

March

 

Jobs: Birmingham - not interested!

 

April had slightly better news with Malcom returning from hospital care he as usual struggled with his form in the first couple matches but it didn't take long before he found his old self again.

 

 

Job list is still depressing tho.

 

April

 

Jobs: Aston Villa - not interested!

 

I remember recording quite a handful of hat tricks in the last couple seasons but he's been shy of those this campaign. Can't remember a single one actually. Mostly scoring 1 goal per game it's not a fantastic goal tally like the ones before but it's decent enough. Best game of the season probably being the Champions League final versus the German Giants lifting his tally to 1 goal per game +1. Cool number.

 

 

Good job boys. Another Cup in the bag. Time for Champagne and a cigar.

 

May

 

Jobs: West Ham - not interested!

 

Still going nowhere!

 

Malcom's Goal Tally

 

Considering his injury and slight dip in form, dissatisfaction re contract + his outspoken ambition to move clubs in the future they're OK numbers.

(Will it be in the EPL at last??? ...or still Spain?)

Cheers!

[Callum98]

Must be frustrating not having any opportunities coming available.

[44_veezy]

We need a move to EPL ! To see if he will deliver

[BatiGoal]

Thanks for the support guys. The longer it takes the closer I am to an eventual move ^_^

[Ashez]

It's extremely risky and I don't think I'd take the chance (without a back up at least) but you could resign and pray a manager from a team you want takes the job.

[BatiGoal]

Wow you never run out of possibilities do you lol. It could actually work, hadn't thought of that loophole :-)

 

If he were 28 I'd probably risk it.

[BatiGoal]

Season 10

 

My work in Brazil is done. Spain completed as well. England's next. I need to find an EPL team and score 200 goals. Well, it's July and only Sunderland are in need of a manager..ok..friendlies out of the way..August comes an no EPL team whatsoever...well then let's stay another season in Spain then I guess. Maybe better luck end of calendar year.

 

Last few seasons I had a pretty decent formation built around my golden triangle of Saul, Wanyama and Koke. Problem occured as Koke's 31 and hit by the stamina bug. I will need a new formation since he's no good anymore.

 

 

Such a shame cause he was an excellent BWM. Triangle's fallen apart so I've switched to this.

 

 

I remember using this "Michelin-doll" formation somewhere down the line but never in FMH2015.

Well, I can tell you this..it's been a downright success.

With those 4 brilliant providers behind Malcom he's had a blast of a season.

 

Diggest this:

 

 

Hat-Trick #1

 

Hat-Trick #2

 

Hat-Trick #3

 

Hat-Trick #4

 

Hat-Trick #5

 

That was sweet. January's here. Now let's get that EPL team and have Malcom whoop cheeks in England.

 

Joblist:

 

 

*SIGH*

Forget it. I'm having a blast in Spain as far as I'm concerned let's keep that momentum.

 

Hat-Trick #6

 

Hat-Trick #7

 

Hat-Trick #8

 

Hat-Trick #9

 

Hat-Trick #10

 

Ahhh that should've been 10!!! so close would've been a great ending to beat our rivals in the CL final with a 10th hat-trick. Maybe next year.

 

Our Hat-Trick Hero

 

27 years of age.

I really do need him to move within 1-2 years or this challenge is over. Shame really.

 

Big Prize for Malcom

 

 

Big Prize for Me

 

Malcom's phenomenal season in numbers

 

When everything clicks it's just awesome.

 

610 games

640 goals

Sorry I failed once again to bring him to England guys.

I really do hope I can get my much anticipated move to EPL at the start or

half-way season 11 or things will get real tight with Holland still looming in the background.

 

Cheers!

[Lee-Roy]

Can't believe the bug hit koke. Lucky it wasn't Mal or this career would've been unfairly binned.

And can't believe England still isn't happening

[Ashez]

Thank god I haven't used Koke yet, he's one my fav midfielders and losing him would ruin any save!

England will come in due time, at least you're dominating Spain and edging nearer the 1k. Something like this is awful in an UEC as you're basically just wasting time awaiting a move lol.

[BatiGoal]

If it hits Malcom I'm done.

I had a chance to move to Liverpool right after completing 200 goals in Spain but it was mid January which gave me only 2 weeks to get the funds together and get Malcom's signature. Was too close a deadline. But as things stand now I'll take that risk if given the chance again.

Can't believe those teams I'm waiting for are all doing well season after season lol

I feel season 11 got something in store for me ;-)

Friendly Brazilian Rivalry in Spain

 

A few months into the 11th season and things are going as expected. Last season's success formation is still intact as I think it'll provide good results and plenty of goals for another year. Unfortunately I have to say that no EPL team turned up during the summer window once again. They hardly do tho so my hopes are in Christmas period when most heads start to roll.

 

But for much brighter news. I just recently noticed I have a 'regen' in my team. I had him in my last year at Corinthians and noticed he could turn into somebody special. Picked him up 2 seasons ago on a free transfer    and he's developed astronomically quick. So much that he's outshining Malcom at the moment. Malcom's picking up his pace now tho with 18 goals in 15 games but 13 goals in 15 games and plenty assists is outstanding for a AMC. Not to mention his consistent and high performances over the past seasons.

He deserves a big chunk of credit for Malcom's hat-trick party last season.

Can you guess whose regen our friend is?

Quality Regen Willian by any chance?

Goodness me, that regen looks like such a monster, look at those 20's!

[billy2shots]

Ronaldinho?

Correct Billy2shots.

 

I thought it was Kaka but it was indeed Ronaldinho. He's a beast.
