Love the video and update mate 👍🏻 I did a long term save with Santos not so long ago and really enjoyed it.
The Brazilian calendar does get a bit hectic, especially when you throw Copa Libertadores in the mix too.

Episode 5: Pushing the Limits
Following the heavy rotation and defensive battles we had to endure in Episode 4, the reality of the Brasileirão calendar is truly testing the limits of this squad. We managed to hold the line, but surviving isn't the same as conquering.
In Episode 5, the pressure of fighting to stay at the summit is heavier than ever. Opponents are starting to figure out our tactical setups, the fatigue from the fixture density is very real, and we are having to rely heavily on our depth to step up when the starters are gassed or heavily marked. This is the part of Master League where every single point feels like an absolute war in the trenches.
A massive thank you to the wider EvoWeb modding community—the incredible stadiums, kits, and face packs keep this game feeling like a live, modern broadcast. The atmosphere at the Vila Belmiro right now is unmatched.
Drop your thoughts on the squad rotation and our tactical tweaks in the comments over on the video. The race to end the 22-year drought is wide open! 🐋👑

Episode 6: Turning the Tide
After the absolute trenches we had to fight through in the last couple of weeks, the squad is finally being forced to answer a massive question: do we have the mentality to stay in this title race, or was our early form just a fluke?
The fatigue is still real, but the chemistry is starting to click. We are figuring out how to break down the teams that just want to sit back and kick us off the park. This episode is all about finding that killer instinct and proving we deserve to wear the crown. The Brasileirão is unforgiving, but the giant is starting to wake up.

Felt the ML itch... So I scratched it by booting up PES 6 with an OF that has all the clubs from the 2006-07 Championship. I got the OF from this thread.
I'll update you guys every once in a while.

Like a week later and I already finished the ML.
I had played 5 minute matches and had a lot of free time this week so I was able to play a lot.
Played 3 seasons, and was able to win the treble, for the first time in over three years (having won the WEFA Championship for the first time in over two years).
It was not the greatest ML I've ever played but it did help me put some things into perspective regarding the game itself.
In PES 6, even when I play on Top Player + Very Hard, a traditional ML gets way too easy way too fast. It did make me think about giving myself a challenge to make things interesting (like, only signing players from one specific region for example). Also, I did realize 5 minutes is too short of a length for a match, because it all happens way too fast and I don't really get to enjoy it that much.
What I will say, is that the OF was very well done, and I had a lot of fun making personalized kits not just for Coventry, but for all clubs in my league.
But for now, I'll leave some screencaps I managed to get before wrapping it up. You can see the kits the club wore in that third and last season, and also special kits I made for the last three league games after confirming the treble win, which are based on the kits the club has in the OF itself, and therefore the ones we wore in the first season.

I'm posting on my youtube channel a full Master League with all matches
PES 21 Master League - Ottawa Rapid Season 1
Background:
This is the first season playing with my custom women’s league, called The Super League. I replaced the Russian Premier League with this league. The Super League contains 16 women's teams from around the world.
Pre-season:
The season started with our celebrity team owner, Dua Lipa, hiring me as manager of Ottawa Rapid FC.
The objectives for the season that I set for myself were: 1) Finish in 10th or higher, 2) Increase team spirit above 70, 3) re-sign all of my players to long term contracts. Immediately, the first objective I decided to tackle was re-signing my players. Now looking at my players salaries I was surprised at how low they were. Most of my players were making around $20K, with no one making more than $32K. So I gave all of my players realistic salaries. I started off by paying all of my top level players a base salary of $50K and developmental youth players $27K (Ontario Minimum wage). In order to pay my players these salaries I unfortunately, within my first week as manager, had to put the team into over $700K of debt. With all this debt, I now had a new objective, pay down the debt before the end of the season.
Season Start:
With all the salary issues dealt with, now was the time to start the season. And boy, what a bad hand we were dealt. Our first 3 matches of the season were against Chelsea (at home), Barca (away), and Chelsea (away tournament match). We ended up finishing the 3-game stretch with a 0-0 draw against Chelsea, followed by 4-2 losses against Barca and Chelsea. With our 4-2 loss against Chelsea, we were knocked out of the Super League World Cup tournament.
Derby Day Part 1:
Leading up to our first derby day of the season against our provincial rivals, AFC Toronto, we had to play 2 matches against Washington Spirit and Edo Queens. We ended up losing against Washington 4-2, but beating Edo 6-2. With the amazing performance against Edo Queens, I felt pretty confident that we could beat AFC Toronto. Man, I was wrong. We lost to Toronto 3-1. At this point after 6 matches we were able to accumulate 7 points out of a potential 18.
End of 1st half of season:
Over the next few months, following our derby loss, we were able to accumulate another 11 points out of a possible 24. With 18 points by the midpoint of the season we were in 11th place. Which was on track with my objective of ending the season in 10th or higher. Our relatively good placement was due to our amazing offence led by our CF DB Pridham. Ottawa had 37 goals over the first 14 games of the season, with DB scoring 19 of them. Our defence on the other hand was the worst in the league, allowing a whopping 40 goals over 14 matches.
Ideally, I would’ve liked to have bolstered our defence with some new talent during the upcoming transfer window, but the team was still heavily in debt. Over the first 5 months of the season we had only paid off about $160K of the over $700K in debt. This meant that during the upcoming transfer window, we could not sign any new players. Also, given our rate of repayment, I was worried that I might end the season still in significant debt.
(Also, as a side note, because there aren't any segregated leagues in PES, when the transfer window opened up all the rich teams, like Washington Spirit, immediately signed male players. So much for women's empowerment and women's solidarity, I guess.)
2nd Half start:
With our inability to sign new players to help bolster our defence. I decided to switch up our tactics. During the first half of the season I used a 4-3-3 scheme. Going forward I decided to try out a 4-5-1 scheme.
This new scheme seemed to have an immediate effect on our performance. To start off the second half of the season we had matches against: Chelsea, Barca, and Rosengard. We lost to Chelsea (3-0), beat Barca (3-0), and trounced Rosengard (7-2).
Derby Day Part 2:
After a humiliating defeat against our provincial rivals the first time around, I was determined to win this upcoming match. Leading up to our second derby day, we yet again lost to Washington, and only managed a 3-3 draw against Edo Queens. Despite our less than stellar pre-derby performances, we were able to defeat AFC Toronto 3-2. The only downside was that our star player, DB Pridham, was knocked out with a bone fracture in her leg for a month. A result of a dirty slide tackle from Toronto defender Croix Soto.
Final stretch of the season:
Our derby day victory catapulted us into 8th place, above our target of 10th. With our upcoming 3 game stretch against Tokyo, Portland, and Corinthians, we could've ended up rising to 6th place if we swept all 3 teams. The only problem is that these 3 crucial matches occurred during the month that DB Pridham was out. As a result our offence lacked the firepower necessary to win all 3 matches. We ended up drawing against Tokyo (2-2), beating Portland (2-1), and losing to Corinthians (3-1). With those results, we unfortunately were stuck at 8th.
After DB’s return our team went on a 4 game winning streak, easily defeating even high calibre teams like Wolfsburg (4-1) and OL Lyonnes (5-2). We unfortunately couldn't finish the season off with a win streak, because we lost our final match to Wuhan (1-0). With Wuhan scoring in the 90th minute.
End of Season 1 results:
With our loss to Wuhan we fell from 8th place to 10th place, which luckily was our season objective. Thanks to our success throughout the season I was able to increase team spirit from 55 to 77. Because I ended the season in 10th place, the team owner decided to extend my contract and allocated $9.75M from season revenues to our salary budget. This allowed the team to be able to pay off the remaining $240K in debt that we had left. With $9.5M available, I can now sign new players to help bolster my defense. I am currently in negotiations to sign Mapi León from Barca and Ingrid Syrstad Engen from Lyonnes.

Sorry mate, I missed this. PS5 (transferred from PS4). Unfortunately I don’t have a powerful enough PC to play modded versions but with a few tweaks to CPU playing styles and tactics you can still have a fantastic experience with PES21 on console (in my opinion).

Hello guys!
A week ago I started a brand new ML on PES 6, with a few rules to make the save feel a bit more... realistic maybe(?) in comparison to the Coventry City one:
1. Since I chose to play as a dutch club (NEC Nijmegen) I am not allowed to sign players from any of the following nationalities: Spain, France, England, Italy and Germany. Basically the countries with the five biggest leagues in Europe.
2. At least 50% of my squad must be composed of dutch players, and I must have at least three of them in my main lineup.
3. I am allowed to sign a maximum of three players each transfer window, but I also must sell the same amount of players as the ones I sign (or more, if necessary).
With these rules, here's my current squad (4-3-1-2 formation):
Most of my team is still composed by players that were already in the club when I started the ML, being joined by newcomers Sousa, Jovancevic and Komol in the 2006 winter transfer window and then Rosenberg and Menegazzo joining on a free transfer in the '06 summer window. Those first two windows were mostly used to sell players I wasn't planning on using, plus training up the ones that I want to keep for as much as I can.
As of right now, the clear MVP of the save has been one of my two strikers, and club captain Romano Denneboom, who has managed to be the most clinical goalscorer I have had in a while (to the point that he currently sits 7th in the all-time goalscorers table, and is also the forward with the highest average performance rating in all leagues).
6 games into my second season (and first season in the 1st Div) we currently sit 1st in the league table with 5 wins and 1 draw, being one point above unlikely chasers Stade Rennais.
PSV Eindhoven has had a very bad start of the season, currently sitting in the relegation zone, which is surprising since they managed to sign the likes of Dirk Kuyt, Timo Hildebrand and Miroslav Klose.
Among other curious signings that the rest of the teams in my league have made so far I can mention Lukas Podolski going to Olympique de Marseille, Javier Saviola to Olympique de Lyon, Rivaldo to Ajax and Gonzalo Higuaín signing for Utrecht.
My plan isn't really to win the league right away despite our stellar start, but I do think we have a good enough team to challenge for that WEFA Championship qualification.
I'll most likely give a new update once I reach the winter transfer window, but for now that's all! Have a nice one folks
