You need to be commended for excellent programming

David Beckham Missed a Pk in the 86th minute of what will probably be his last world cup game .. which will basically eliminate england

[JeffR]

There must be some kind of trick coding to jinx Beckham - in the 2006 World Cup I played the other day, he put a long shot off the crossbar in the 117th minute of a 0-0 England-Brazil final. (He at least managed to score later on his penalty shot - it took Owen Hargreaves to screw that up for England.)

Heh

All down to the behind the scenes personality modelling for players

[FrogMan]

hrm, does he even have the hot wife in the game?

Note: The post below is a joke, meant to poke fun at some of the folks I've run into on the SI board.

(whiny FM "fan" mode on) marc why haven't you updated the game with the fact that Beckham now speaks Basic spanish? After all, he read a prepared statement about Real Madrid en Espanyol. This is a major issue affecting my game and I demand a patch last thursday. You are ruining my experience and fm2005 is the worstest game ever. I hope you get fired.

KThxBye.

LOL

PS. In the game he'll learn it ..... eventually ....

(there's a lot of debate going on at SI as to whether he knew that Spanish or if he was getting prompted through an ear-piece (watch the interview carefully if you can get hold of it))

That's one of the thing I've found very cool in the game, the little things like a player learning new languages. My Ecuadorian striker has learned basic English in his first season with us, weehee!!!

And SirFozzie, that was a great impersonation

Foz,

You forgot to add that "this makes the game unplayable". Other than that, you are spot on!

Not quite - he forgot the 'Sort it out, SI!!!!! ' at the end.
