Just been going through my crytocurrency portfolio and realised it tallies up nicely to a match-day football squad so without further ado let's get to it..
So first up it's important to note I'm plucking for a classic 4-4-1-1 formation - it'll all make sense once you've had a read..
Goalkeeper
1. Ripple (GK) - Steady performer, can pull of some immense saves, occasionally flaps..
Defence
2. Augur (Left Back) - Likes to bomb forward, bit of a gamble..
3. Factom (Right Back) - More steady than Augur but lacks pace..
4. Litecoin (Centre-back) - One of the senior players in the team, dogged & persistent
5. Dash (Centre-back) - Lacks a bit of "swazz" (is that even a word?!) but is still able to hold down a spot in the starting 11.
Midfield
6. NEM - (Centre Mid) - Bullish, lacks a bit of tactical awareness at times and can be caught out of position.
7. IOTA - (Left Wing) - Wildcard, won young player of the season last year. Needs to improve on final delivery.. can IOTA fulfill it's potential?
8. Storj - (Centre Mid) - The player you send out to do the interviews after the game. Little bit boring but puts in a shift.
11. OMG - (Right Wing) - Fan favourite, they love the potential and are happy to brush off any poor performances.
Attack
9. Bitcoin (Centre Forward) - Has been pinging in goals for fun for several seasons, can be arrogant at times.
10. Ethereum - (The Playmaker) - Huge potential. Sits in behind the striker. Dictates the tempo. Chips in with goals and assists.
Subs Bench
- Cardano (Good potential)
- SIA (Currently transfer listed)
- Patientory (PTOY) (Pushing for a start)
- Kyber (Good potential)
- NXT (Good potential)
Tactical Breakdown
As you can see the spine of the team is looking pretty solid.
I'll admit the flanks are looking the weaker part and the average age of the team is relatively young.. but with that said there's attacking threat all over the place.
The Subs Bench
don't even get me started on it.
There are some absolute gems on the bench.
It's not easy having to drop the likes of Cardano and Patientory but they'll get their chance.
Transfer Market
Looking to bring in some defensive cover. One or two injuries and the squad would be down to the bare bones so bringing in some reinforcements will prove crucial.
I have identified several targets but apparently managers can't comment on players already at other clubs so I'll have to wait until I get the go ahead from the owners!
So There You Have It..
A complete summary of my crypto portfolio.
the question is.. who makes yours?! Let me know!
