Bernardo Fry. Ready for week five. Feeling good about things, despite having not trained particularly hard this week. Going forward however - we'll skip
to that first.
Nearly 200 TPE in the bank, and what to spend it on?
The coaches constantly harp on more physical abilities, but Fry already is at 18 Agility, 16 Balance, 14 Strength. On top of that, Pace/Acceleration are maxed out. For his position at Right Winger, really that ought to be enough. What else is on the list?
Finishing, only 14. That could use some improvement.
Work Rate, 15. Based on the experience from the World Cup, high work rate is so valuable.
Technique, 13. This is a serious weak point in Fry's game in the current meta.
Anticipation, 16. This skill showed serious rewards in the World Cup run, and perhaps could be even better with higher Decisions, Vision, and Finishing.
Maybe we could just add a point each to crossing, dribbling, finishing, first touch, etc. The safe approach.
But really, who is to say? In any case, we need to add the RAM position to Fry and make some decision, any decision to make this work.
Anyway, on to the game, finishing your Slurm Plus, fans!
XC FC vs Cataluna. What a matchup. Fry was nervous to start off. The XC passing game is full tiki taka, very dangerous. An early goal for Cataluna is called back, so close to being onside. Shockingly, the second goal was allowed, what a run by Bonito. 1-0 at the half.
Twinkletoes is doing his best, standing on his head for saves. Goodness, a second goal, 2-0, we're not even going to check for VAR. The rest of the half was back and forth, but no further goals were achieved. Not a great effort by Fry, only 6.6 on the ratings, but we'll take yet another win to put us at the top of the division.
