Finally a hard question. 

Need to clarify:

1. What's the team formation? (Player roles)
2. Can we see player role traits for them as AP?
3. Can we see coach's report?

Sure, will post additional screenshots later today.

I cannot believe if Erik deliveres this time after so many times he has failed for me, but as i wrote to BG - i actually hope he/they proove me wrong!

Ahh, previous experience with the player. Don't know whether we should call conspiracy or not!

So nearly went with Vela but couldn't get past that 'selfish player' coach comment. Hope the sod steals all the glory from Lacazette!

We are almost where another teams usually says.....next season is ours ?

BUT if the boys clinch it tommorrow its ALL good ??

[Jens]

Vela is simply the more talented man. In my experience that usually does it on fmm

[Idol]

Whatever the question is, Carlos Vela is always the answer. 

[BatiGoal]

Don't think I can post the results today as I've been really busy with stuff but man this race between Falkenberg and Vela is super exciting. I know you guys experience it differently but I've been playing one game at a time alternating saves and boy are they worthy competitiors. I'm about halfway.. will post a teaser in a bit

[Taff]

It was the selfish comment and the lack of teamwork that made me choose Erik, even though Vela is clearly the more talented, but only time (and the lord on high @BatiGoal) will tell

That's exactly it. If it were a team performance we'd all go for Vela but since the objective is to make Lacazette shine we set completely different criteria. Not to say that Vela has no chance here, it's due to his sheer quality that he's a worthy AP competitior and still very much in the game.

Top Football Manager Cup 2017

- Round Three -

- Teaser -

 

A - Erik Falkenburg

Lacazette hat-trick...and there was me thinking Falkenburg was a teamplayer..bit selfish getting a goal if you ask me. Assists +2 tho

 

B - Carlos Vela

Lacazette x4!! and here's the supposedly selfish Vela assisting +3. Interestingly enough both players picked OGC Nice to showcase their talent

 

..standings with 9 games to go..

 

Neck and neck all the way !!

Almost wet myself when I read the hat-trick of assists but I hadn't scrolled to the bottom of the post and seen the 8 assists each.

That says to me that our man Falkenberg is more consistent across multiple games and will surely come out the winner!

I am usually the model of cool and calm, but as soon as @BatiGoal is involved I am as nervous as a Liverpool fan on game day 

[Brenty92]

It's not as nerve racking as you'd think, once the first goal goes in the floodgates open wide ? I'd be more nervous as a Swansea fan almost seeing all the hard work over the last five years nearly wash down the drain into the championship ?

Lucky you bought Fernano ' The Beast' Llorente ??

He's been sent by the gods what a guy to have in your team, and we only made it look like we were struggling to ass to the drama, would have been boring if we'd sat in 1st place the whole season long 

[Brenty92]

I've always liked him, I wanted us to buy him about 3/4 years ago but nothing came of the rumour!

Yeah lol helping all the other teams earn their money ?

[arobbo92]

I'm looking forward to see who comes out on top! ?
