How are you doing in Master League?

[Barcelona1984]

I have a Master League with Tottenham Hotspur and I'm in my 5th season. I am half way through my 5th season and this is my W-D-L record: 21W-2D-0L.

This is my team in my 5th Season:

GK: Perin 89*
CB: Palmieri (captain) 101*
CB: Otamendi 90*
RB: Hutton 96*
LB: Insua 93*
CM: Iniesta 91*
CM: Huddlestone 96*
RM: Lennon (co-captain) 104*
LM: Marko Marin 95*
SS: Hazard 92*
CF: Bojan 93*

Bench/Subs:

GK: Cooper 81*
CB: Guagua 65*
SB: Bale 93*
DM: Sandro 86*
AM: Bosrocic 66*
SS: Verdi 86*
CF: Giroud 86*

Reserves:

CB: Knezevic 62*
CF: Okaka 76*
SS: C. Benitez 55*
CF: Defoe 79*

I am currently in 1st place in the EPL, 4 points ahead of 2nd places Sunderland .

I thought Perin should be higher than 89 at your 5th season?

 

[S-D-P]

S.D.P. yeah man I love Ajax my uncle is their team doctor...the only thing is that even though I have no losses and 2 draws it seems easier in their league...just not enough quality teams at all...PSV bought Ronaldinho and some other great players and I dismantled them. In the Serie A when I was Napoli it was hard it seems Serie has the better players on all teams to compete againts you. I will look at Wellington, But Macheda and Hamdaoui are just doing great I play each every 2 or 3 games and they are banging in goals.

Thats one of the reasons I started a Serie A again, I love eredivisie but serie a is always competitive and exciting, I just won the Serie A with Juve after a four team title race with napoli, Inter and Milan was a real battle as well.

Managed to win the europa league after an all italian final with Napoli, into my second season.

Players in

Pastore(33m)
Hernanes(9m) I robbed Lazio a bit there

-----------------------------------JaviMartinez--------------------------------------------
------------------------------Hamsik--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------Juan Mata---------------------------------------

[Mwm234]

Starting my third season with Liverpool, a side I edited into the Championship (using PESEdit patch, which has the Championshp as 2nd League) and then used Default players with - no Game Expansions activated.

The way I play my ML is that I try and look for good prospects, and when I feel that they have developed to the point where they are established stars, I sell them, making a hell of a profit on it.
For instance, I bought Danny Sturridge for 800,000 and sold him for 21million.

GK: Fatecha

My Goalkeeper for the first two seasons was David Marshall (Cardiff) and Fatecha was his backup that I had future plans for. When Marshall left (for quite the profit I might add), 19 year old Fatecha has cemented himself between the posts and is doing a good job so far (about 5 matches in). I expect him to guard my posts for a solid 2-3 seasons before I sell him.

CB: Fernando Amorebieta and Palmieri

Palmieri have been in my backline since the start, even though he was merely a 16 year old little git with a measly 67 Overall rating then. He is now a more impressive 82 OVR, and with his newly arrived playmate Amorebieta from Bilbao, the centrebackline is stable and secure.

SB: Daniel and Dennis Diekmeier

It really feels like it's hard to hold on a good fullback in this game. Last season, I had Serge Aurier and Jean-Philippe Sabo on the wings and they were amazing. However, too-goo-to-be-turned-down offers came, and I felt obligated to sell them (you don't get a lot of money when you start with default players after all). Replacing them coming into this season is young german Diekmeier (a whooping 89 Overall Rating at age 23) and even younger brazilian Daniel (who was really only supposed to be a both-side backup, but since I had troubles signing a proper leftback, he gets to play).

CMF: Camacho and Anders Svensson

Camacho has been cemented on my midfield since the start of the save and he gets better by the day. Svensson is a swedish favorite, who regened and popped up in the youth team. Although I would have preffered a more seasoned player (with better stats) next to Camacho this year, Svensson will have to do.

SMF: Rodrigo Tello and Shimizu

Shimizu is quite possibly the best youth prospect (who isn't a regen) in the game. A staggering 90 Overrall coming into the third season, he's partnered with Rodrigo Tello who had regened early in the save and was by now a free agent, also with a 90 Overall. Seeing them on each side will be fun.

CF: Kevin Gameiro and Raul Bobadilla

I've had strikers come and go (Daniel Sturridge, Dani Pacheco, regened Blaise N'Kufo) but few have such an impact as my regened Raul Bobadilla has. The man is a beast - quick, agile and has all the right stats to be a top goalscorer. And with Gameiro on his side, my attack is going to be deadly.

Subs worth mentioning:

Schwarz (CF) - He's been developing slowly, but has scored ten or more goal in both seasons I've had him. He is insanely good, albeit a little slow.

Neymar (SS) - I don't know if he regened or not, but he popped up in youth team and I signed him on. He has a buttload of Player cards (among them a striker favorite - 1-on-1 Scoring) and can play on both wings, aswell as attack. I will play him quite a lot this year.

Oscar (CMF) - He's really an AMF, but his stats are higher on the middle, and I don't play with an AMF. He also develops really slowly, but is loyal to the team and is a good sub.

hey.
neymar is very good if u use him often he is 19 years to me and 85 overall rating and is the top scorer for me and is very fast and he have won the best player of the world.

 

[Stu1983]

I am going to start a new ML tonight.

I've got the DAYMOS Championship patch and also all the Konami updates. Unfortunately, the March update messed up some of the teams and removed all the players from VFB Stuttgart. It also removed certain players out of Championship teams.

So, I spent the last 4 nights editing the game a bit more. I've replaced the silly named teams that appear in the Europa Legaue with real life teams. I have done the kits (without sponsors or badges) to give the game a more realistic edge. I've added the real players for - FC Shalke, VFL Wolfsburg and Borrussia Dortmund. I also put the real names for players of Bohemians, Dundee United and The New Saints (although didn't do their appearances or stats, just overwrit some of the fake players already on it).

I've also added - Rapid Vienna, Bronby, Slovan Bratislava, MSK Zilina, FC Sheriff, Hajduk Split, FC Salzburg, Levski Sofia and maybe 1 or 2 others who I can't remember. With these teams I just added as many national players as possible - for instance Rapid have a lot of AUSTRIAN INTERNATIONAL players who were only in the National team and not a club side. Same for Levski with Bulgaria. I then saw players like Defour, Witsel etc... were only on the National teams, therefore not available in ML mode to buy, so I've added these players to teams.

Finally, I unlocked Neymar, van Nistelrooy and Beckham from the shop. As I don't want classic players appearing in my ML, I create a new player and just based copied these 3. I've added them to one of the 3 COPA AMERICA sides, so again they will be available to buy in ML mode.

So after all that, I am finally ready for the most realistic ML campaign yet. No made up teams in Champions/Europa League and all them stupid named Russians and Irish (especially Knipplegarth :huh won't appear. That also means no Vanderbuurd, so will look forward to seeing a 'real' player win the Defender of the year award.

It took a while to do and halfway through I did think 'bollocks to this' but I am really pleased with how my OF is now looking.

I think I might start with Newcastle United. Might drop them into Division 2 (swapped with QPR) and try to re-build them, take them back into the Premiership and then into Europe.

[Dutch]

I got bored of my North London team so I created a new ML as Fiorentina this time turning on classic players and dynamic development. just started season 4 and my team is really strong.


GK: Neto

Signed him up without realising he actually plays for Fiorentina woops. He keeps getting better finally made the mvp team last season.

RWB: Boka (Daniel Alves)

stats in the late 90s only 21 years old. I play him as a normal full back away from home or against a good team.

CB: Palmieri

stats 100+ Best defender in the world. My captain.

CB: Sami Hyypiä

Only 20 becoming an excellent defender. Stats close enough to Schmidt to make selling Schmidt and easy decision.

LB: (Daniel Alves?)

My coach said there was something special about him when he was in my youth team but didnt compare him to any player. He seems to be identical to my Alves. Its nice to have two, roughly same age with the same abilities. No penalty for playinh him on the left.

DMF: Rodwell

Was a solid dfm and is now a brilliant one. Starting to score goals even though it is not his role. Stay back and cover please.

CMF: Canales

New signing only around 22 23 years old very good stats. Two goals and a few assists already even though I play him pretty deep.

AMF: Burnolen (Brolin)

Best player in the world, at least in this alternative one, stats 105+
Hw was my striker but I am moving him to AMF for this season, a role he plays equally well.

LWF: George Best

stats about 96 97, not as good as you would expect but still very good.
I used to play him on the right but he is wasted there because I tend to play down the left slightly more. He is now way more invloved in the play.

SS: Messi

I started with normal funds but massive profits in the transfer market meant I could buy him.

CF: (Torres rebirth from peru)

He is only 21 with stats in the mid to low 80s but he is growing fast and I notice the real Torres goes over 90. His first season in the starting 11 and he is doing well.

notable subs

LB: Kenny Cunningham

Who knew a teenage rebirth of Kenny Cunningham I bought from Chelsea for one million would turn out to be a brilliant LB who always seems to contribute in attack. Overall rating of 91, 22 years old. He is too good now that he gets unhappy when he doesnt play but I have two Danny Alves. What are you going to do?

AMF: Shimizu

As you know one of the best players in the game. retraining him to play CMF. Probably a big mistake.

CB: (a Chiellini rebirth with a different name)

Chiellini is mostly a CB of course but he can play as a full back with much lower stats. How shuold I reassign his training points to make him more like Carragher able to play both roles very well? I dont mind if it makes him a little weaker as a CB than he normally would be.




bought Scowcroft for 3 million sold him for over 40
bought Džeko for a season sold him for a small profit
sold Schmidt for 73 million
sold deco and the striker Schwartz too cheaply shuold have waited.

[JNyce1985]

Thats just whack, how can you have any fun using messi and ronaldo on the same team, and that would never be a real life transfer...playing with classic players really? but more power to you, i wonder what players the other teams have if you have almost every best player on your team.

 

[cookiemonster]

i just played my first season of master league and i had no problems by this i mean, i had no injuries no players moaning or upset or asking to leave the club. i easly got players i wanted with also no problems.

i am wanting to know is this right ?? should master league offline mode be that easy i thought player were ment to get injured and have issues with the club, why did this not happen for me it was all to easy to play and win the league and uefa cup

can anybody help with this, is there something wrong?? or had i just been very lucky in my first season ??

 

[waywardcloud]

if u want any struggle (with it some genuine football moments) with a game konami makes. play with their original lineup (castolo, ximilez etc.) and start in div 2. work your way up and actually make your own team by the time u are a mid table club all the real life players will be slightly old and u ll have fun finding young gems.

just bought canales from madrid, fits my scheme perfectly, still struggling to be a mid order team.

lineup:

------------------schmeichel---------------
--connoly--bruce--n.collins--ben parker--
-----------ki sung yeung--howson---------
--l.sam--------canales---------snodgrass--
------------vagner love----------------------

subs:
tafer(great backup striker)
castolo
henry(16yrs old)
palemeri(20yr old cb - growing really fast)
ximilez
kilkenny
matsui
al dosai

 

[Bite.Me]

Playing with Benfica, on my 3rd season:

----------------Julio Cesar (Benfica)
-----------------------82

Fábio-------Palmieri-----D.Luiz------F. Coentrão
86-----------92---------83-----------87

-----------------Javi Garcia
--------------------74
--------------Milner------D.Silva
----------------80--------87

-Lavezzi----------------------------Zarate
---83--------------------------------87
-------------------Rooney
---------------------89

At this point I'm already spending more than I'm gaining, financially speaking....

Wanted to get some more top players, but at 15M salary (+ 80M transfer) I can't really do it without selling someone... or compromising my team's future.

How can you build teams with Ronaldo, Messi, and others without going bankrupt?

P.S: I'm already winning around 98% of my matches and haven't lost one since my first season....

 

[waywardcloud]

if u are winning 98% of the matches then whats the point of playing?
i guess its to have ronaldo and messi on the same team to win 100% of your matches

 

[Montanaro]

I usually can't get past a couple games in ML. I try small teams, obscure teams, large teams. It all feels like I've done it before.

Perhaps if they made scouting more interactive. I always get addicted to sports games where I have to work hard to get players.

 

[LiL MeSsI]

Does anybody know how much money you acquire from winning the UEFA Champions League? I've won the PL which gave me about 17mil but I haven't won the CL yet.

Any response would be helpful

Its defo less than a league win, pretty sure its about 6 to 10m, can't be sure though but still a decent amount.
