Hellooouuw guys!
Dom | Ali Dia made 7 questions for the academy players and I want to answer these in this article
These are some fun questions for my character (not player, my real life character), so how I am etc
Since its my first SSL season ever, that can be very interesting:
Question 1:
What color would the number 4 be, if it were a color?
That question is easy to answer, so I would say blue. Why? Because the 4th world of my all-time absolute favourite video game is a water world. Fun fact: I do not really like water worlds and its my least favourite world in this game, but I still kinda like it, especially the worlds boss, which has a uniqe way to fight against him
Question 2:
Which fictional world woulrd you most like to live in?
That would be definetly Minecraft. There are so many ways to play.. I mean to live there. I could go to adventures, could build cities or other projects, but in a multiplayer world, I would most likely be a farmer/gatherer/miner. So I would most likely get ressources for everyone
Question 3:
Which football club do you support?
Its a team, who won the league this season! ... and we got promoted to the Bundesliga: FC Schalke 04. Where I began to have interests into football, I wanted to support a team and my conditions were: Be able to play in international competitions, but not be the best team in Germany. Despite used to live near Hamburg, I choosed FC Schalke 04, its logo just catched into my eyes and I fell in love with that club very quickly. I did not even knew any history of this club or others. At the stage, where I become a Schalke fan, they were on a champions league spot. But when they got relegated ( I think 7 years ago?) into second Bundesliga, I kinda tried to support a different club, but that wasn´t possible. If you one time fell in love with a club, it will stay you whole life, you can´t just switch a club you support, so I decided to stick with FC Schalke 04, even if they would play in amateur leagues (I hope never, its the third biggest club in Germany, or at least Top 5)
Question 4:
What´s the worst movie you´ve ever seen?
I dont know the exact name of the movie, but it had a 3-headed-shark swimming through 10 centimetres deep waters (by far not realistic, but we are talking about worst movie, soooo...). The movie was so bad, it got good and fun to watch!
Question 5:
What´s your favourite FM save you´ve done? (if you have FM)
Yes, I have FM, but never did more then 2 seasons, but I plan to start a journey and learn the game in a hard way by learning-by-doing. My favourite FM save was with SC RW Oberhausen in fourth German division (Regionalliga West), I lost almost every league game, so got sacked mid-season, but I somehow almost won the first cup round against a Bundesliga team (1-1 and lost in penalties, one penalty shoult just had to be scored, then I would have won, but not scored, the next after also not and that was it)
Question 6:
Would you rather have no fingers or no elbows?
Thats not an easy question for me, even though I would answer this question within seconds: no elbows. It would still be a huge handicap, but without fingers.. I dont know what I should be able to do, especially me, who loves video games, how you gonna play without fingers?
Question 7:
Which SSL team/org has the best branding?
By just looking at the logo, there are many inbteresting designs. AS Paris got creative with the l´Arc de triumph or however its spelled in french. But also liking Hollywood FC, it looks like something had united to create this club. Uniao Sao Paulo looks also nice, especially it is my favourite two-color-combination: black and red. Reykjavik United looks also nice, I like such logos with outer part of the circle being black, it matches with every other color then in my opinion. Rapid Magyar SC looking like a huge club being. And Inter London looks also nice. But when I have to choose just one, its not an easy choice, but my choice would fell to: ... FC Kaapstad. Why? Its round (my most favourite form as a logo), has a uniqe color cimbination, which reminds me a bit with Brazil (green-yellow) and other reasons I can´t tell, I just like this logo the most. I also have a least favourite logo branding from all SSL teams, which is very clear to me, but I won´t tell that publicy, you can speculate if you want, but I will not tell anyone about it and keep that as a little secret to myself
So, that were all the questions, I can´t wait until the draft is real! I wonder were I start my career!
