Another statistic: here is the ranking of teams in real life, based on results:
1 Spain 1883
2 Netherlands 1659
3 Brazil 1524
4 Germany 1464
5 Argentina 1288
6 Uruguay 1152
7 England 1125
8 Portugal 1062
9 Egypt 1053
10 Chile 988
I suspect the rankings on Fastticker (based on player averages) are much different: Brazil is probably first (weakest player 88 average), Netherlands much lower (strongest player 87 average). As Dutchman I must object of course ;)
I think I had been under 10% for a while at that time, though now I got it up to 13% thanks to better results (no losses in my last 8 league games).
Yes I lost and had a red card, so I tried something else. Now with 3-5-2 I suddenly won 11-0 against a decent team. Next tick I got this message:
From: The Board
Subject: Bad Performance
You’d better start getting better results
11-0 is not enough I guess :P
No luck with that setup either: 20 16-human PSV 6 0 2 4 4 10 2 (board expects me to be top 3).
I also noticed only three of my players have an avarage statistic of 6 or more…
No luck in the first game :( I am supposed to win the league, but I if I won’t win the next game I might get sacked :(
Your Performance: 1%
Season is over though, hope I survive till the next one begins and I can try to apply your advices.
I have spent quite a bit of time on Rubysoccer, only to lose almost all my matches with PSV. Obviously I am doing something wrong, but I’m not sure what… even after improving my squad by loaning some strong payers, they kept losing. So what am I doing wrong? I have tried 442, 433, 352, didn’t seem to matter. My tactics are basically going forward when having the ball, going backwards when not having the ball. Am I missing something?
And how long will I survive on 8%, now that the season (on the fastticker) is over?
In the Dutch league, there is a team without any Dutch players. Also I think there are more Brazilians then Dutch players playing in the Dutch league (not counting youths). Now in real life, this is not possible: there are rules limiting the amount of non-eu players (and rules for limiting the amount of foreign players are considered). Also there are disadvantages for having (a lot of) foreign players: players can get homesick, having trouble with the cultur or language difference etc.
I am wondering if country does matter in any way in RubySoccer. If not, should it not be, at least a bit?
Hi,
Does anyone have Dutch players they wanted to sell? I might be interested.
