Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

First time a player on my team has ever won this award. Your 2017-2018 European Golden Boot Winner: Lukas Podolski - Age 33 - Koln. His career year led us to a 2nd place finish.

Almost at the break of 2018-2019. Finished 3rd in the Champs League group (Barcelona, Aston Villa, Dinamo Kiev), so I'm waiting to see who we get in the Europa League knockout rounds.

Sitting in 2nd, 5 points behind title holders Dortmund, and 5 ahead of Leverkusen. 19 matches to go.

Started my 2026 World Cup campaign with Italy, and holy crap they are stacked at the center of midfield. There are like 5-6 World Class players at that position.

Beat Kazakhstan 4-0 in the first game. ST A. Pasani scored a Hat Trick.

Look on your keyboard (should be in the top right) for a "Print Screen" key. Hit it to take a screen shot. Then, open up pain, or any other image editing software, and press Ctrl + V. This will paste the captured image into the image editor. Then all you have to do is save it, and uploaded it to an image hosting site. Try photobucket.

I have windows 7, so it's just taking a picture of the desktop every time.

I also have windows 7. Not sure what you mean by taking a picture of the desktop. Do you have the game open when you take the shot?

Getting set for WCQ 2 and 3 with a home match versus Azerbaijan, and then we travel to face Israel.

Going with the same 26 I went with versus Kazakhstan.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

Now that I'm in 2018, I find myself looking at historical stats and looking up where players ended up just as much as managing my team and playing matches. I have 15 nations down to the lowest level in the game running, so there's plenty to look at.

Notes of interest from my save:

Juventus has won an incredible 8 straight Serie A titles (2011-2018) They just won their first Champions League in that stretch this past year.

Dortmund has become a powerhouse in Germany. They have won 3 of the past 4 titles and are currently cruising to a third straight. As Koln, I drew them 0-0 twice this season. I only have 4 losses in 25 played, and I'm 9 points behind them in 2nd. Their players hold the top 4 spots in average rating.

Notts County has quickly climbed the ladder and is in the EPL 6 seasons after winning League 2. Their manager? Sol Campbell.


There are 9 matches left in the Bundesliga season, and we have 9 points to make up on a team that can't be beat (1 loss in 25). We are 1 point ahead of 2nd and 3rd (Leverkusen and Bayern), so the Champions League is far from locked up for next season. We just beat Hearts (equals with Rangers now) 2-1 on aggregate in the first knockout round of the Europa League. We now face Metalist (Ukraine) in the next round. Very favorable draw. Hopefully we can hang on for the Champions League spot because I'm certain that Dortmund cannot be caught. If we finish second, it will be the 3rd runner-up finish in the past 4 seasons.

Our only chance for glory is the Europa League, so that's the ultimate goal. It's going to be tough with Man Utd and AC Milan slumming in the Europa. I hope they draw each other.
