Asunto: Seasonal Competition.

To clarify back pass I'm referring to your 1st point, where defenders/midfielders/strikers pass back to the defenders/keeper.

So on the wing passing back to another midfielder won't officially count on this, unless it travels past them back to the defenders.

Hope that clears things up.

Thanks for asking, as it was something I hadn't thought about at the time.

Both borkos and myself gain a few points on the early runaway leader Minkee with one round to go. Achmid starting to make a move up the list, moving into 4th overall.

A very low scoring round this week.

One round left next week, remember the top 16 will get to choose a player to play in the competition match, although the higher you finish the more likely you are to get a player to get in the action.
(editado)

top 16 hey.... in this case even barhilo can get a player in.. quick someone keep him out of it in the last round! :P

Looks like Maras getting his 2nd game! ;-)

*might actually participate in the next guessing*

Significant information

Andorra have a very small user base and have struggled to win matches.They've been playing mainly newer nations this season and have still been finding things difficult. They've managed just one goal from the past 5 matches and shouldn't pose us too many problems. Andorra mixes their tactics between 2 choices from the matches I have seen (around 10). With such a short history they haven't ever played against us before and so this will be the first meeting between the two national sides.

With only a few weeks left in the season I'm looking towards consolidating our spot in the rankings and to try to avoid any more drops in ranking points. We knocked off a win against Slovenija last week winning 4 - 2, although clearly we dominated them from the start. They played their U21 squad which was surprising considering I did mention we were playing 1st XI but despite that we still showed we can be string together a good performance for the full 90 minutes. Gives us a chance to use a second string side, to test our depth ahead of qualification matches in a few weeks. This is subject to change but it's what I'm likely going to end up doing. We've been picking up our performances recently and it's a trend I'm hoping to keep. Our past 5 matches have resulted in the following:

(W) Slovenija
(D) Hellas
(W) Shqiperia
(L) Bulgaria
(W) Malaysia
