game status to prove save times. Didn't use in-game editor to my advantage at all.
To be fair, using Holland is quite easy-ish team to do this challenge with because they have such a quality squad with quite a few wonderkids.
Edit: Formatting.

I found this quite hard, and form wasn't easy to come by. We had a good run of results near the start though. Draws were a killer for me, as they killed any momentum, we were building! We ended up with:
8 WINS, 10 DRAWS, & 4 LOSSES
We had a 4th placed finish in the league table, with Germany winning the whole thing. Italy came in 2nd, whilst Denmark finished 3rd.
In the playoff, we faced Denmark, and were smashed 3-0 in the first leg, leaving us little chance of success in the return leg. Ironically we beat them but we lost on aggregate. Nevermind.
FIFA CUP OF NATIONS
This was where we excelled, as we reached the final, but lost to Germany in an appalling result. We had some cracking results along the way though dumping out some of the more fancied teams in Spain & Uruguay

One thing noticeable about the team is their sheer lack of strikers. Huntelaar is the only out and out striker. anywho, I spent most of the game with Depay up top and this bore fruit. Barcelona now want him. Lucky chap.

Wanted a tactic to have three at the back as I wanted to start De Vrij, De Ligt and Van Dijk together so downloaded our own @VP. 's latest tactic. In hindsight this did mean I missed out on playing with some nice Dutch wingers but I shoehorned Depay up front so I least had one. Form was very hit and miss, we only managed to make 5th and the mighty Welsh knocked us out of the play offs, they were on fire all season. Don't know how the Italians finished so high!
Depay finished third in the overall goalscorers, though if woodwork and offsides had slipped in he would have been top easily. So no points there.
The cup seemed to be what our players were after. Even beating the Germans on penalties in the earlier rounds. However, the Argies were a different class in the semis and went on to win the cup in Extra time against the English. Enjoy the trophy chaps, the Falklands are still ours.
So points wise:
5th place (no playoff win): 25 points
Semi: 60 points
Total: 85 points
Not very good, but enjoyable! Looking forward to see what is next!

Just the 50 points due to our third placed finish in the Silver League.
