Warg92 Posted November 12, 2023 Author Share Posted November 12, 2023 An absolutely horrible end to the season. At least in the league. We're safe for another year, and that was the main goal at the start of the season. And that will be the goal for the next season as well. Vaduz won the Swiss Promotion League, and will be joining us next season. Liechtensteiner Cup But we've won the Cup again!

Warg92 Posted November 12, 2023 Author Share Posted November 12, 2023 (edited) A new record for players called up Potentially a new debutant for Liechtenstein in Olaf Krüger (YP04o). *EDIT* We have 71 players at the club, so basically half of the players has been called up!

Warg92 Posted November 12, 2023 Author Share Posted November 12, 2023 Pre-Season 2031/2032 Perfect pre-season! To my surprise we're not predicted to finish bottom We even have a player in the Media Dream XI! All the white/blue (and GK) is players from FC Lausanne-Sport. Squad Best XI GK RB - CB - CB - LB DM CM - CM IF - ST - IF The two players closest to the starting XI at this moment in time is Paul Eppensteiner (YP07a) and Marian Bonz (YP07f). The only reason Bonz is close to the starting XI, is because we really need a new right inside forward, and he could be the biggest talent at that position.

Warg92 Posted November 12, 2023 Author Share Posted November 12, 2023 August 2031 To my surprise we're still doing great in the league! How long can we keep this up?! UEFA Europa Conference League First up Knattspyrnufélag Akureyrar from Iceland. A team we should beat without a problem. After a 6-0 win in the first game, I rotated a bit in the second game. It backfired slightly, but at least won on aggregate. Next up, Derry City from Northern Ireland. On paper a tougher team than KA. We won 3-1 on aggregate, but it should have been more! With that win over Derry, we got to the fourth qualifying round for the first time, and there we faced Omonoia Nicosia from Cyprus. A much tougher opponent! This was so close. And I feel a bit cheated that we did not win this. At least when they scored in the 97th minute in the second game. At least we get money! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warg92 Posted November 13, 2023 Author Share Posted November 13, 2023 I forgot the April update. Silly me. What a season this has been! After our strong start, I really though we sooner than later would lose momentum, but we played great all season, and in the end we finished as number two in the league. Lausanne, the big favorites before the season had a good second half, and in the end they finished 14 points ahead of us. That meant we had a chance at promotion, as we played FC Stade Lausanne-Ouchy in the play-offs. Unfortunately they proved too strong for us. Well, too strong is is not really the right word, as we actually had the highest xG. But, we lost, so it does not matter. Liechtensteiner Cup Another win the in Liechtensteiner Cup! Great news, as we really need the money from continental football As per usual, the final was tight!

Warg92 Posted November 13, 2023 Author Share Posted November 13, 2023 (edited) We have to say goodbye to Justin Pires, the last player from the original squad. He leaves us as the most capped player in the history of the club, and he even has the most goals for us! I would have liked for him to be around, but he wants to be a Key Player, and wants more than double the wages than what the next guy in the squad has. And I see no reason to pay him that much, especially now that we have several players that is just as good, if not better in his position.

Branst23 Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) Loving the story so far, having done Liechtenstein saves for many years it has peaked my interest! I have a few questions: What is the aim of the save? Realistically what division do you think you can actually get them to? Whats the limit? Do you have to manually put nicknames on all your youth intake players to number them (eg YP07A)? Could you explain the naming convention? Did you choose Schaan as they had the most Liechtenstein nations in the team at the start? Would you ever do a save where you just made it Liechtenstein only (can sign only that nationality as well as youth intake)? Are you using instant result to get through as many games as quickly as you are? Edited November 14, 2023 by Branst23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you using instant result to get through as many games as quickly as you are? Thank you If you're thinking about the Swiss league system, we should at least be a good Super League team. And out in Europe, winning the Conference League and getting to the Europa League could be doable, but we need a lot of luck, that is for sure! I said in the opening post that Champions League was the main goal, but I don't see that happening. Yes, I do. Copy paste all the way! It's pretty simple really, (YP07a) is the highest rated player from the seventh youth intake. That is also pretty simple, as they had the best looking kits of all the teams from Liechtenstein that play that far down in the Swiss league system I doubt I'll do anything like that. I really like doing the youth only saves. It's much quicker to move forward, as I don't need to scout for players to sign. But, if this saves just stagnates, and I feel like I'm hitting a peak in the players we get through the youth intakes, I might try to sign players from the other teams. I use instant result in like 90% of the games. I usually play the "normal" way in the first game of the season, the Cup finals, European games and some of the games that I give the youth intake players debuts, as I want to know how they look in the game engine 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warg92 Posted November 14, 2023 Author Share Posted November 14, 2023 UEFA Europa Conference League First up, Klubi Futbollit Teuta Durrës from Albania, a team we should have no problems with. Two good games, and even with the rotated team in the second game, we managed to win. The next we played was Cracovia, from Poland. A slightly tougher opponent, but definitely beatable. The first game was close, and could have gone either way. In the second game we really ouplayed them, but left it very late. We really should have scored more goals. But at least we managed to turn around the deficit from the first game, and got through to the next round. Then we faced Odense Boldklub, and they were the only team between us, and the Conference League league phase. This was the first team we faced with several players that was not grayed out. A very tough team! In the first game our main problem was hitting the target, and even though we had many chances at doing so the game ended 0-0. Even in the second game we were the best team, but it does not matter as they took their chances, and we did not, and ended up losing 1-2... I feel like we deserved to go through to the League Stage with how well we played. We go again nest season! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warg92 Posted November 15, 2023 Author Share Posted November 15, 2023 Youth Intake 2033 This is the sort of youth intake one can only dream about this far in to the save! Five players with five star potential is brilliant, but the personalities of three of them is not great. Laurin Hassler (YP10d) is probably my favourite, closely followed by Günter Herzig (YP10c).

TottenhamFan101 Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Great progress, you're flying through the seasons and I can't believe you're already so close to being in the top flight! How have you found the personalities of your squad to be so far? I know how important they can be with development and can only imagine how impactful they are in a youth-only challenge. I've have quite an issue with most players becoming unambitious for some reason after being introduced to the senior squad, although the latest patch seems to have reduced that, and I can imagine a similar issue might be pretty detrimental for you.

Thank you! To be fair, I have been very lucky with the players that have come through the youth intakes. The latest youth intake is the first time that some of the highest rated players have had bad personalities. I just had a quick check in this thread (because I can't remember all the players), and none of the players with the "Unambitious" personalities have stayed put. They barely played for us in fact. The only player we have at the club, around the starting XI, with a "bad" personality is Marco Walter (YP07c) (low det), and he has grown a lot slower than some of the other players with the same amount of playing time. I am curious to see how well the new players will develp, with bad personalities. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warg92 Posted November 15, 2023 Author Share Posted November 15, 2023 Super League here we come! This was our third season in the second tier, and I really did not think we could get promoted so soon. Especially after that first year. I was a tough end to the season though, and with both us and Sion losing a lot of valuable points the last month. In the end I feel like this was fair for both teams, even though it was close. Over the course of the season we dropped from the first place only twice, and then we won it back the next round anyway. Let's see what happens next season. For all I know, we will back to this league in two years Next season we will playing with the big boys, and the board has made FC Schaan a Professional football club. Liechtensteiner Cup Another win!
