Weekly Recap
Catalunya
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: Honestly, it's hard to say. Mojo Rizing, Awesome McPossum, and Vins Vins have all been playing excellent and better than expected.
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: Franco Poores and Cairo Shitty. Idek when it started, but probably around S2 and after all the shit I talked during the draft, I'm just relieved we got one over them. If Franco Torres were to transfer to another club though, I'd probably hate on them instead though, so it's more of a player rivalry.
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: Our defence and midfield is already awesome. I think we have one of the best defences in the league and not a single S1 player in our backline. Our midfield is the best in the league already as is, so replacing it would just hinder us. As for our attack obviously having Hollywood FC's front 3 would be an abundance of riches for any club, I really trust the youth of our attack led by the experienced Okamoto.
4. Your teams player of the week!
Answer: Awesome McPossum really put it on this week and showed the league he's gonna be a scary threat now that's he's matured a bit and is starting to train harder and more consistently on the pitch. I've literally never seen him kick a ball the way this possum does, he's a fucking magician on the ball and the little furry fucker is impossible to catch.
Sydney City FC
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: This week has been pretty disappointing to be honest, we struggled to make our chances count, however our back 4 have been performing a lot better in recent times. I couldn’t pick out a specific name but even Certified Problem’s been saving us from time to time, so that’s a positive for sure
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: I think our main rivals have to be Catalunya or Tokyo at the moment, us 3 are battling for the top spots
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: That’s a dope question, but I’m gonna have to go with a cop out and say that I wouldn’t really replace anyone in my team to be honest. I’m a big fan of the pieces we’ve got, but obviously I’d love to see the performances that Yeboah has put up or the Catalunya midfield has had
4. Your teams player of the week!
Answer: I’d have to say George Costanza has been our most consistent player with Certified Problem a close 2nd. Honestly there’s not much to choose between them
AS Paris
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: I think Sparkle was very good in his performances. As well as our new CB, Washburne, both been content on their defensive skills and helped us a lot in solidifying our back
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: Main rivals? I think we developed a good enough rivalry with Cairo, and its been developing rapidly.
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: I think I would take a goalie on that. Possibly Yeboah or the Heretic guy from Cairo, those two I like a lot. But Rage wouldn't be bad as well. Basically everyone...
4. Your teams player of the week!
Answer: I think I have to give it to me. Scored many goals and was solid all week long.
Athenai F.C.
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: I think the offense has finally started to wake up so the entire attacking side would be my answer.
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: Hollywood hands down. We have been fighting with them in both the league and the cup the past couple of seasons and they have the advantage as of yet.
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: I would have to say the offense of either Tokyo, Sydney or Hollywood wouldn't be to bad to add on to the team. But just wait until our people get up to speed!
4. Your teams player of the week!
Answer: Andersen again.
C.A. Buenos Aires
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: I think most of our young guys have really hit the ground running. The one I didn’t have many expectations for to start off as great as he has is Edwin Van der Sloth. But the guy has been killing it all over the pitch.
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: Very one-sided thus far, but Sydney. Both of us came in during the same expansion season and they have murdered us every. time.
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: Players wise it’s hard to choose. But whatever structure they have in Athenai is working wonders. They are not supposed to be as solid defensively as they are.
4. Your teams player of the week
Answer: In a week where we scored one goal I have troubles selecting anyone but Koschei Oakdown. He has been our hands down our best player this season.
Inter London
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: Benji Atreides was an IFA pick-up that has done really really well so far. He's found ways to impact the game despite him minutes from the bench and limited starts
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: Overall would have to be Hollywood FC. Hollywood have always had our number, one way or another. We can't seem to find a way to best them - yet.
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: I'm not going to answer this one - for safety sake. I will say that we are looking to improve our midfield this year.
4. Your teams player of the week
Answer: Tony Yeboah - I was going to say more but he saved it on the way in.
Seoul Mythic FC
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: I’m not surprised but I think the rest of the league can be a little shocked at the quality Kong has shown thus far. We’re finally able to give him some help and he’s shown just how good of a keeper he is to the world. We’ll rely on him heavily.
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: It’s always Tokyo, we managed to split last season with Seoul taking the league matches and Tokyo running away with the cup, but Tokyo is a different beast this season. We haven’t quite cracked them but I fully intend on seeing the next round of the cup, so we will solve their squad.
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: Defense. Defense is a veteran position, and our squad has had a revolving door at CB the past few seasons. Lockyer has been somewhat of a revelation for us and the addition of Holmberg has also been huge for us. That said, having a veteran in that CB group would be huge for us.
4. Your teams player of the week!
Answer: I’ve hinted at it earlier but it’s got to be Kong. He’s really showing the league his quality and despite a couple of dropped matches this week he’s been the rock that kept us in every match.
Tokyo S.C.
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: I think I’d have to h say both of our rookies. Morelli has stepped in exceptionally right next to top striker Sky Ryze. Meanwhile Gary Hog was drafted as a center back, rerolled to be a center mid with LB as a secondary position...and the guys going out there and scoring goals and assists, pretty impressive for newcomers to come in and excel right away.
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: Seoul for sure, being the other only team from Asia was a given but we’ve now elimina....played them in the cup two years in a row now. Definitely a budding rivalry in the making
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: This might sound like a cliche answer...but none. Our one “weakness” you might point out ( as FM does in our scout report ) would be GK. But Kody Hill has been an absolute revelation in net and the LR. Tokyo has been seeking a consistent active non retired goalkeeper for a few seasons now. How and why they were in that situation itself is quite the story...
4. Your teams player of the week!
Answer: Pingu Nootazooki the Tokyo GK legend
Montréal United
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: has to be Calavera, been up and down the midfield really giving it all game after game
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: C.A.I.R.O
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: i wouldn’t take their player but if we got the defensive results that athenia has been getting we be in tremendous place.
4. Your teams player of the week!
Answer: gonna gave to go with our main man in the attack Coffee Biscuit.
Cairo City
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: For me, it's Arnošt Hlemýžď. Despite being a rookie and at a low TPE level, he is already proving dangerous on right side and has completed some great dribbles and crosses.
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: Oh man. It seems like Cairo is taking a lot of heat from Catalunya and Montreal lately, especially in GM chat, and I would consider them our main rivals. However, I want to mention Paris, as I had a bit of a back and forth with SteveAiva recently surrounding our matches and we just beat them in the first leg of our SSL Cup matchup.
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: I know Owen Forty-Four tends to steal the headlines, but I am always impressed with the Sydney City midfield. Havok, Hulk a Votto, Possible, Black, and Fred always like dangerous. They can play a great ball and have the vision to find the forwards, and can make you pay themselves with some incredible goals as well.
4. Your teams player of the week!
Answer: Our player of the week has to be Elmis the Heretic. Our regular season backup and cup starter, he stood on his head more than a few times to help us take a 4-1 lead into our second leg against Paris.
Adowa Accra FC
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: Vui Kemoeatu has been really raising the bar for the team, with his work rate on and off the pitch
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: We are still waiting to see how the season will go, probably will have our position rivals by mid season.
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: That sweet sweet Hollywood offensive, backed up by their hardworking mid
4. Your teams player of the week!
Answer: SamSiege for scoring his first goal since forever!
Hollywood FC
1. Second week has just passed us by. Who on your team has been the biggest positive surprise?
Answer: Videl Valor has always been underrated, and this season, he is once again showing why he deserves some praise. Just a super solid player.
2. Who would you say are your main rivals? This season or overall?
Answer: I always thought of Athenai as our main rival, but as the league has grown, that may change as we see these newer teams more and more.
3. If you could take any position (defence, midfield, offence) from any other team in the league, which would you take?
Answer: I love our squad, and my goal is to help make us great in all aspects of the game. So, for that reason, I would choose to succeed or fail with my Hollywood players.
4. Your teams player of the week!
Answer: It was an up and down week for us, but Ricky Bobby stood out with his excellent performance against Montreal.
Big shoutout to all the managers who are taking time out of their days to respond!
