The one with the septuple


In my sixth season with Spurs on FM13, I’ve finally managed to win it all in the same season. I’ve won the septuple – 7 trophies – the Community Shield, the Euro Super Cup, the Club World Cup, the Capital One Cup, the FA Cup, the Premiership and the Champions League.
The Premiership win was my 6-peat and the closest race for the title. Spurs and Manchester United were neck-and-neck the whole season. Going into the last game, I had a  1 point lead ahead of Manchester United. To confirm the title, and to keep things simple, I had to win my last game. My last game was away against Arsenal. We won the title at the ground of our hated rivals with Harry Kane scoring the title winning goal.
The season was also the season I played Arsenal 8 times and beat them on all 8 occasions. Beat them 8-0 and 1-0 in the league, 2-1 and 2-0 in the Capital One cup semi-final, 1-0 and 3-1 in the Champions League semi-final, 7-2 in the FA cup quarter-final and 4-3 in the Euro Super cup.
The Champions League was the 4th time I played Barcelona in the final. I have a 2-1 head-to-head record against them in the Champions League final. I avenged my loss to them in the final 2 years ago by beating them 2-0. Goals scored by Isco and Gareth Bale.
My main star was Erik Lamela. In 37 appearances, he bagged in 12 goals and laid out 24 assists. He also picked 20 yellow cards. The defenders too all performed well. Seven of the top ten in average rating were defenders. Goals were scored all over the place, with 11 players scoring at least 8 goals. And 3 of those players recorded double digits in assists too. Top scorer was Harry Kane with 23.
Below are the screen shots of the record winning season.

So what left is there to achieve? For now, my aim is to keep on winning with Spurs and maybe try my hand on the international stage.
