Gaming The SM RedCafe League

That is incredible. Congrats to Mansfield on winning their first major trophy.

There's just something about the Cup. 16 different winners in 21 seasons. Only United, Darlington and Spurs have managed to win it more than once.

There's just something about the Cup. 16 different winners in 21 seasons. Only United, Darlington and Spurs have managed to win it more than once.
Even if that's both cups combined, that's pretty crazy.
 
Has been for just over a week now (Goretzka went up on the 22nd and he was part of the last team reviewed). Spain is the current one being reviewed.

Bellingham up to 82! (qualifying him for the youth table)


Martinez went down, Rudy and Delaney both stayed at 90! :wenger:
 
4:1 victory against Ipswich Town. Last time I played them I was five points clear, now I'm 16.

Ismailia Sarr is my favourite player.

13 goals and 20 assists in 22 league appearances!

To put this into context:

Sarr (89) is top 9 for goals scored with fewer games played than the rest above him. Only 1 goal away from being equal with Aguero and Hazard. He’s also 2 goals ahead of Messi!

Him and Iwobi (also Cardiff) are the only 90 below players in the top scorers chart.

In the average performance chart Sarr (7.5) is the only below 90 player on the list.

He tops the assist chart and that’s right you guessed it he’s the only below 90 player on the chart.

Best combined G+A in Apps
Sarr (89) 33 in 22 1.50 per game
Griezmann (95) 39 in 29 1.34 per game
Hazard (95) 34 in 28 1.21 per game
Neymar (96) 27 in 27 1 per game

He’s statistically the most lethal player in SM right now and the closest players to him are 95+ rated. King!

Great effort!
 
Ismailia Sarr is my favourite player.

13 goals and 20 assists in 22 league appearances!

To put this into context:

Sarr (89) is top 9 for goals scored with fewer games played than the rest above him. Only 1 goal away from being equal with Aguero and Hazard. He’s also 2 goals ahead of Messi!

Him and Iwobi (also Cardiff) are the only 90 below players in the top scorers chart.

In the average performance chart Sarr (7.5) is the only below 90 player on the list.

He tops the assist chart and that’s right you guessed it he’s the only below 90 player on the chart.

Best combined G+A in Apps
Sarr (89) 33 in 22 1.50 per game
Griezmann (95) 39 in 29 1.34 per game
Hazard (95) 34 in 28 1.21 per game
Neymar (96) 27 in 27 1 per game

He’s statistically the most lethal player in SM right now and the closest players to him are 95+ rated. King!
That's bloody mental
 
Great effort!
Thankfully I've got it so the table BBCode is automatically generated so "all" I need to do is go through all 36 teams finding the youth players and the number of players in their squad. Doing it for this month took a lot less time than last time, especially as the list of players was mostly done so just had to put in the newer players and the rating increases/decreases.

1:0 victory at home to Nottingham Forest with my (mostly) second string as I'm going all out for the League Shield. Big eight days coming up as it'll define whether I end the season with up to three trophies or just the one.

No surprise. Been a disaster of a season.
 
And in the fifth Manchester United v Aston Villa game this season, United win 4:0. Strong result with United's greatest cup loss being 3:0 against Sunderland, so Villa would need to do better than that to make it to the semis.
