A hopeful talent from Hamburg

[Maggu]

Hi,

after testing NSS3 for 10 games, i decided to get my Code. What a great game.


My position is central attacker, right-footed. That was my position in real life too. :D

I started my first career at pro level in germanys 2. Bundesliga at Carl-Zeiss-Jena.


After sitting on the bench for the first games, i played 7 games for Jena and had a n average rating of 5. Then i got an offer from Karlsruher SC at the same league 16th place. To play more often i decided to accept.

The question for my aims i answered with "Finishing top of table".

I played 11 Matches for KSC scoring 6 goals and having 5 assists.
After the end of the season we finished as 11th. That was not so bad, but not at top of the table ;)

Netherlands won the World Cup 2006 in the final with 2-1 against the Chechs.

Now i will start second season, hoping for thrilling matches, fantastic goals and much appearances.

[Maggu]

The second season started now.

What a bad start for me. My confidence was down and the manager hates me after being booked with a red card in the second match. So i found myself on the tribune for 6 games.

Without me my mates were playing well :lol: and so we climbed up from the 15th to the 7th place as i returned on the pitch.

The next games i couldnt start any great actions and the my manager was getting nervous again. But in the 15th match i got a penalty after dribbling 5 or 6 opponents and being tackled from behind. Now my attacking-partner Kaufmann got the chance for the 1-0. And he made it. Yeah, my first assist for this season. Now things were getting better. I played every match from beginning and scored my first season-goal at match 21 against Freiburg. Just a shot at the empty goal after a deadly pass from Kaufmann. But goal is goal.

So we got near to the 3rd promotion-Place and now after 23 matches we are just 4 points behind Kaiserslautern staying at the 5th place and i am very optimistic to play next season against munich, hamburg, dortmund...

My stats for the first part of 2. season :

matches : 13
started : 9
goals : 1 :wall:
assists : 7, and every goal scored by Kaufmann, he loves me ;)
rating : 5.5

Hope the last 11 matches i am playing better and can score some goals because the mates loves me, the fans idolise me (got the chance to get a tatoo of Karlsruher SC and let it made) but my best friend, the manager seems not to be amused :redface:

[Maggu]

The next two matches i could do 2 assists....and Kaufmann scored.

At the cup-quarterfinal we met Schalke. After 10 mins Kuranyi scored for Schalke, but from minute to minute we were getting better and better. Kaufmann hit the bar 2 times and the ball was nearly in the goal a few times but we didnt score. So the tournament ended for us.

After this match we started an amazing run with 6 wins a row and i received 3 offers. Wolfsburg (they played in the champions-league) offered a contract for 55000,- a week. I rejected. Then the Rangers wanted me to come, but i thought it would be better to stay at Karlsruhe and try to promote with the team. So i rejected the third offer which came from Gladbach (they were 5th in the 1st Bundeliga at that moment).

At matchday 33 we had to play at Frankfurt and needed a win to jump the first time on a promotional-place. Frankfurt scored first and we couldnt eqalize until the last minutes. I got a pass in midfield, played it to Kaufmann and he scored a long-range shot. 1-1. Only 4 minutes later i played a long pass to Kaufmann near to the penalty-area and he scored again. 2-1. Now we were 3rd with only 1 game left against Augsburg, who were 2 points behind.

Meanwhile Brooks, Lotto and Coca-Cola seems to be impressed about my last ratings and i got some contracts for the sum of 4.200.000,- :dance: and a pair of white boots ;)

That was the day i decided to buy a beautiful french manor house for 1.200.000,-. Perhaps the great look to the bay from balcony could impress some ladies :lol:

The last match was an easy one. We won 3-1 and the party started. Karlsruhe was back in the 1st Bundesliga and i made the right decision not to accept the offers some weeks ago.


End of season 2 stats :

matches : 23
started : 19
goals : 6
assists : 18
ranking : good
value : 4.500.000,-

Career stats :

matches : 40
started : 36
goals : 14
assists : 24

Sounds like a great career! It's nice to know there's someone out there other than me with more assists than goals :D

[Maggu]

"Sounds like a great career! It's nice to know there's someone out there other than me with more assists than goals"

Thanks Master. I hope it will continue. Played the first 2 matches of season 3 last night, and it seems to continue. But in that matches i scored more goals than assisted : 4 goals, 3 assists :D

We are first now with 2 matches, 6 pts, 11 GS, 0 GA, destroying Duisburg with 7-0 in the first match of season. In this 2 matches my ranking jumped up to excellent and my value exploded to 23.000.000,- :blimey:

Just cant wait to continue.

[Maggu]

After winning the first 5 matches i decided to change the difficulty-level to expert.

Karlsruhe offers me a new contract for 70000,- a week and i accepted.
We played a really good season and after 15 matches we lead the table with 9 points in front of Bayern and HSV.

In the cup we were blamed by Bochum in the first round. They played a great match and we neither hadn't got any chance to win, nor to score. So the match ended 0-3 and the tournament ends really soon for us.

My confidence sinked after some poor matches and i decided to buy a Lamborghini Gallardo and a nice greek villa. The effect comes soon. Not only my confidence climbs up, a brown-haired beauty became my girlfriend.:D

The winter-transfer-window opened a i got some offers. First Girona wanted me. They were 12th place in primera division. I rejected. Then Lazio visited me twice in Karlsruhe. They offered 91000,- per week. I rejected. At last Tottenham offered nearly the same sum a week for a contract. But this offer i rejected too. I decided to stay at Karlsruhe. I promoted with the team and were now standing on top of the Bundesliga. Now i wanted to win a title with the team too.

In the next few games we couldn't satisfy our fans and after a defeat against HSV and another against Bayern our lead was shrinking to 2 points.
Although the Bundestrainer called me to say i was nominated for the match against Ireland. The team won 3-0 but i was just sitting on the tribune.:(

Perhaps my chance comes the next match.

Now the whole region shivers and hopes the best. Could we win the first title for Karlsruher SC or will the season ends with tears ?

My stats for the first part of season 3 :

matches : 24, all started
goals : 16
assists : 27 :dance:
rating : 5.8
ranking : excellent
value : 23.750.000,-

Since the last post some years have gone and many things happend.

After our fantastic start in season 3 we only finished on 5th place.
HSV, Bayern, Schalke and Bremen were just too good for our young team. But after all it was a great season for us.

This was my first season in the 1.Bundesliga and i scored 18 goals and made 27 assists. Not bad for a 19 year old youngster.
My ranking now was excellent and my value stood at 23.250.000,-.
The Euro 2008-hampions were the World-Champions of 2006. Netherlands. They beat Portugal in the final 1-0 and with this title after winning the WC they really were the best team in the world.

The 4th season wasnt really our best one :wall:
We finished 11th in league and i got injured for a few weeks. I just scored 14 goals in this season and made 14 assists too.

Allthough my average rating was 8.4 and i achieved the ranking of a world-elite-player. After playing a great match against England in an "excellent international debut", i started 3 more matches for the Nationalmannschaft, scoring 5 goals :dance:

The 5th season was our best so far. We climbed at 3rd place. Our fans could be proud of us. This was the best result the club ever achieved in its history.
I had a great year and became league-player of the year. Yessss.

But my personal highlight just waited for me: World-Cup 2010.

After finishing 1st place in the group-stage, Argentina waited for us in the next round. At the beginning we had some problems and Argentina took tthe lead. But at 2nd half we got better and better and stroke back. In he end we could win 3-1 with my first WC-goal.:D
In the quarter-finals we met the USA. It was a really hard match and they played very well, but we were able to reach the semi-finals after a 2-1 win.
Then we played England. For a long time it seemed this would be our last match in the tournament but after scoring my 2nd goal this WC we lead 2-1 and England wasnt able to come back.

Now we stood in the final. And there they were : Netherlands. They kicked out Denmark, Portugal and France. This was their 3rd great final in a row and so they started. We never came out of our half in the first 20 minutes, cause they played fantastic. But then we got a counter-attack and scored...1-0, yeaaaahhhh.
After our lead they seemed to be shocked and so we could score a 2nd goal in the first half. As the referee blows the final whistle of this tournament we were the new world-champion after destroying the former Champions with a 5-0 win !!!! I scored 2 goals in this final and after this i became world-plaxer of the year too. What a great season for me and my country.

So i hopefully started my 6th season. Perhaps we could win the Bundesliga for the first time in history.

[ziropuz]

hey,
you are playing a really nice seasons and i like reading your career.
are you german? if that's true then i met a landsmann ;)
I hope you gonna continue the story, try to keep your playing style realistic though.

[Conway1992]

Good work,keep it up
:)

[Maggu]

The 6th season started promising. After the first 10 matches we played good football and stood at 2nd place. Schalke 04 was 4 points ahead at this time.
Then for a few matches we werent able to score and so we lost point by point falling down to 6th place.

After a great comeback against Hertha BSC with 3 goals in 2nd half and a 3-2 win, we started a fantastic series of wins. Meanwhile we reached the half-final of the DFB-Pokal. We played in Freiburg and took the lead early in the match. Freiburg never had a chance to equalize and after a 2nd goal we reached the final against Bayern München.

Meanwhile we were leader of the Bundesliga now and only 4 matches to play Bayern was our rival for the championship too.

In the transfer-period i got 2 offers from Italy and 1 offer from Spain. I have played here now for 5 years, celebrating a relegation, playing in the Champions-League and now i wanted to win a title with the team too. So i decided to stay here and the fans were delighted ;)

In matchday 32 we played against former champion HSV and with our 2-2 draw we were 7 points ahead. That was it !!! Karlsruhe won their first championship-title in history, and i got my first national title too. The streets of Karlsruhe were crowded and for the next days there was the biggest open-air-party the city ever saw.

Now we just waited for the cup-final against Bayern. They surely were a little angry just to be runners-up in championship but thats life :dance:

The match started and Bayern played very well. It seemed my mates made too much party the last week. But after first half, we lead 2-0 and the title was near.
But in 2nd half we seemed to stop playing football. Bayern scored once, twice, and a third time and now we were 1 goal behind. :wall:
In the last minute of the match i managed to score a fantastic counter-attack and the referee blows the whistle for extra-time. It was a great battle now. We hit the bar and missed 2 big chances while Bayern missed 1 fantastic chance on the other side. In minute 116 i had to left the field cause i was totally exhausted. Nothing more happend and the penalties started.
After missing our 3rd kick Bayern took the lead but their last kick missed too.
We scored, they scored, we scored, van Buyten...missed. That was it. The double. Championship and Cup. Fantastic. What a great season.

I became league-player and world-player of the year again, like the season before.

The last match of this season was a qualifing-match for Euro 2012 with Germany against Moldova which we won 5-1. So we defended our first place in our group with 4 point ahead of Turkey.

After that all i just was happy to get some free weeks to relax at the sunny beach of the Bahamas B)

[Maggu]

The 7th season at last wasnt a great season like the 6th.

Everything started promising and so we lead the table after a few matches with some points. We played a good ball and the 2nd Championship seemed to be able.

After some weeks KSC offered me a new contract with 165.000,-€ a week and i thought "Ok, better than nothing." and accepted.

In the DFB-Pokal we played against some chanceless teams and went through to the quarters with a smile in our faces.

In the championship i played my best match at this time against Werder Bremen. I scored all 5 goals :blimey: to the final score of 5-1 after we were 0-1 behind and we were 6 points in front of Schalke now.

Meanwhile i managed to qualify with Germany for the EURO 2012. The next highlight was in front of us.

The CL-group-stage was ok. We lost in Palermo and at Sporting Lissabon but won our 3 matches at home and one as guest. That meant 2nd round.
There we played Feyenoord with a remis and a win. In quarter-final we had to play Atletico Madrid. They played stylish, fast and powerful...and lost in total with 0-5 goals.

At this time everything looked like a triple for KSC and i got some offers from Italy, Spain and the Netherlands. I decided to stay at the KSC until a really famous club would ask me to come. But then we started some bad weeks.

First we lost absolutely chanceless against Leverkusen in the DFB-Pokal-quarter-final with 0-3. Then we were not able to win one of the next 4 Bundesliga-matches and Schalke climbed at 1st place. In the next matches the ball wasnt our friend. Every move seemed to be extremely difficult and even i didnt score for a few matches.

Then we had to take a trip to London. Arsenal waited for us in the CL-semi-final.
They played fantastic and we never had a chance to win the match. We lost 2-4.
In the 2nd leg they scored after 5 minutes and we knew the dream of the title would end now. But then i equalized the score and until the 70th minute we took the lead with 3 goals. The fans started to party at the tribunes as we scored the 4-1 but the party stopped a few minutes later as arsenal scored 3 goals in 15 minutes too. At last we won the match 5-4 which was a great result but the chance to win the Champions-League was gone.


The last matches of the season we werent able to catch Schalke. So we ended the year with a 2nd place in the Bundesliga and a fantastic semi-final against Arsenal.

Some weeks later the EURO 2012 started. Naturally Germany was one of the favs. We still were the World-Champions :P
The tournament started nd first we destroyed Italy 4-1. After that we met Denmark. They played stronger i expected and after an open match we won 2-1.

In the semi-final England waited and it seemed to be a copy of the World-Cup semi-final 2 years ago. England played well, i scored my first goal in tournament and after my 2nd goal we won the match 3-1 :D

Now the world waited for the final Germany-Czechia.

This was our best match in the whole tournament. We took the lead early in the game and the czechs never had a chance to win their second EURO-title. In the end we won 4-1 scored 2 goals by me and celebrated the 4th european-championship for Germany.

After all i became league-player and world-player of the year for the third time in a row. So...at the end it wasnt a really bad season for me ;)


Here my stats :

37 matches
44 goals
22 assists
world-elite ranking
35.500.000 value
Championship runners-up
CL semi-finalist
European-Champion
