I want to do some more short fun challenges like the Brazil one for sure, I realise it's exhausting always trying to survive relegation or some other hard ship.

 

Something about being in debt and the challenge to bring in both a certain amount of money and achieve league status could be interesting.

 

Here's some other ideas I have at the moment.

 

  1. You can't win anything with kids - A custom team made up of all the best wonderkids
  2. Pensioners - If you edit the game to start a save in 2073 all the players will still exist but be 70/80
  3. 115 - Man City relegated to the Championship, you have to get 115 points.
  4. Set Pieces - You have to score a certain number of goals from set pieces
  5. 4-4-2 (or other formations?) - You have to play with a specific formation

 

First of all a big thanks for all the effort put into creating these challenges, they work really well as an outside incentive to have fun in unexpected settings we might not necessarily have come up with on our own and they're much appreciated.

 

Secondly, funny you should mention this last idea about trying to play in a specific formation, as this month's club news did provide really good inspiration for a challenge suggestion in the Prem: “The right guy in the right moment for Man Utd” - the Red Devils start lost somewhere in the bottom half of the Premier league table come November, not to the mention the disappointing european performance, and have finally decided to gamble on a Ten Hag replacement that should guide them back to glory while staying true to a 3-at-the-back system employing necessarily 3 centre-backs with two wingbacks and a midfield duo behind a front three. Can the player be the one to turn an abysmal start of the season into a silverware-worthy campaign while relying exclusively on a 3-4-3?
Additional layers to the challenge could include limiting the transfers during the season, forcing the player to be as adaptable as possible with the current squad at their disposal, and/or prove that less is more - and that employing a 3-at-the-back system can result in a clean sheet record that the previous 4 defender system would never achieve.
