Hot diggity! Is it possible to request the new save files?
I’ll post these later today.
Once you reach the top, there’s nowhere to go but down. For Chelsea, it’s been a whirlwind of a title defense. An early rocky start extended into a slump that currently sees the Blues 7 points off the lead. The only thing standing in Chelsea’s way to roar back to the top are the teams that put them there. In what’s grown to be the toughest of all leagues to win, the Premiership is fully up for the taking with newcomers FC Barcelona and Blaugrana currently leading Juventus and FC Bayern by 1 and 2 points respectively. The top of the table sees an unoccupied throne and for BG, Luigi, and James, the hard part has yet to even begin. The pressure from Inter, PSG, Valencia, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Gladbach will begin to mount as the season soon sees the start of the reverse fixtures, where every team’s fortunes are sealed. And as always, you can’t always predict the way the season will turn out. Despite trailing the top and middle packs, Manchester United, Lyon, Tottenham and Dortmund all made a swath of changes over the transfer window, looking to reenergize their seasons with a fresh spark.
A more difficult title defense has fallen on the shoulders of the Saints of Southampton. With 12 of 26 rounds completed, Southampton trails a resilient Salford City by 3 points, sitting second on the table in Gooner’s first title defense. Not to be outdone, last season’s third placed finishers Vitória are determined challengers, 6 points off the lead. Last season’s Sociedad was 8th after 12 rounds. The inevitable runners up should give evilo a boost knowing Lens are sitting in a much better position than Sociedad were a season ago at this point. With a bottleneck occurring, separating 4th place to 8th by just 2 points, there is still too much to be decided to know that anything is certain. The league is, as always, up for grabs and will go down to the end. Salford’s Nicolas González is currently leading the race for the Golden Boot with 11 goals.
Nearly half way through the season, it has been another bullish title defense for ProPAIN’s Flamengo side, who currently hold a five point edge over second-placed Guadalajara. Flamengo is seeking to become the first team and ProPAIN, the first GM, ever to win three back-to-back titles and look the Odds-on favorite to do it. However, one shouldn’t be quick to dismiss the challenges thus far presented by Chivas and Palmeiras as the three clubs have separated themselves from the pack. But as history has cruelly shown, a multi-round dip in form could turn the table one way or another. After Palmeiras, five clubs are within 6 points. Another five are just 5 points adrift that pace. So, all’s still left to play with the majority of fixtures still remaining. Although, it wouldn’t be a Dynasty season without a few surprises. Newell’s haven’t kept up their stellar display from last season but despite benching last season’s Golden Boot winner, Aaron Connolly, in favor of the incoming Armando Broja, the athletic Albanian forward has contributed a league-leading 10 goals to lead the line after 12 rounds. Disappointing results from CF Montréal and Vasco da Gama have so far committed both clubs to the bottom half of the table but one would not be surprised to see either or both surge up the standings.
Heh. Finally, I don’t really care much for Cup competition at this time.
