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

Good luck, reo. I'm guessing that some a-hole manager stated their interest in Hulk? That's a dick move that always gets under my skin in this game.

Thank you, I'll need it.

Yep. Didn't even make a bid for him either. I'm just waiting for him to come back to his senses. No interest in him at the moment. I purchased a keeper in Bengalio from Wolfsburg. My team is set and stacked. Gamberini and Rodriguez have interest but nothing. Hope to hold onto them. I didn't realize how good Rodriguez was either.

My current squad . . .



Hulk just became a natural at AMC. Neymar currently accomplished at AMR (didn't take long, he was competent at AMR). Meireles still only accomplished at DMC after a year (may take another year to become a natural). Everyone else is a natural in the starting squad.

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

Resigned Hulk to a 5 year deal (only added another year). So, he's no longer unhappy. However, Fucile and Gamberini have asked to be transfer listed. Hopefully, they come to their senses soon. I'm currently in 2nd in Liga Sagres. Sporting doesn't lose. I have a game to go and I'm down 9 points (my game at the Dragao ended with a draw too, I go to Lisbon for the next fixture with them). Ugh.

In the continental tournament, I won the group even though Chelsea was in it. I almost took three points at Stamford Bridge. Neymar intercepted a back pass for me to go up one nil. I decided to go defensive. Eventually gave up the equalizer. I did not control either game (referring to my game at the Dragao and the Bridge). That is why I went defensive. Started both with a balanced attack. Both ended in draws.

My knockout round game is with Marseille.

Are there any good roster updates for fm 10 with the new transfers? Curious

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

Thanks I'm going to start a new game tonight! Should be fun.

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

Firing up my Sevilla save for the first time since I've been up at Cuse. I know, 1:51a on a weekend, but my date tonight didn't end as anticipated. Lukaku better still be a monster...

EDIT:
Completely forgot the state of my team, tables, cups, etc. Not the same as before. Disappointing to say the least. Let's see if it can pull me back in...

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

I can't do it. I just can't get back into FM with this save. Not really worth starting a new one. I guess I'm done til FM11. It's been a good run boys...

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

I started a new Arsenal save as well as yes, real Madrid with new transfers. I did the Real save because I wanted to see how many goals I could score with Ronaldo compared with Messi lol

Anyway, question - where do I get the new kit packs for this season's updates?

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

Just started playing again.

I realized I haven't updated in a while, so I figured I'll post a career update screen.



After leaving Dartford for Hereford, I did pretty well there. And after a year or so, Derby offered me a job. I figured this was too big not to take, and it turned out to bite me.

I did well managing the club, keeping them in the Championship when we were not supposed to. A consortium took over the club at the end of the season, and my tenure at the club was forcefully ended shortly after.

I have the first round of CONCACAF Qualifying with the Netherlands Antilles next. A very winnable home and away series against Cuba. A win puts us in the first group stage, which would be huge.

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

We were home first.



Absolutely glorious. The squad responded like champions after going down 1-0.

Wow, big win. That sucks about Derby, though. Hopefully you'll get a job offer of similar stature.

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

I'm not so sure about that. I applied for openings from the Championship to League 2, currently awaiting a return on an application to a 3. Liga team.

Anyone looking to freshen up their experience (looking at you, Tomas), check THIS!

Yeah...206 editor files. Some highlights include Italy down to level 8 (205,000 + db changes) and Mexico to level 5 (43,000 + db changes)

Haha. I would, but I literally don't have enough time. My courseload this year is ridiculous (**** being an IT major) and I would be dead if I was caught with FM open if my girl found it. Oh well. On to next year I guess. We'll see what happens, but I just can't get into it. The only time I'd be able to play would be at like 2-3a if she's not with me and that's not very often. **** sucks, but it's worth it in the end. FM is the ****, but I simply had to break my addiction. I'm already pushing it being a Union and Pool supporter. Nothing I can do. Probably whipped but it doesn't matter. Sorry boys, but you're just gonna have to deal without me for another couple months. FM11 will just have to happen no matter what. Gotta relapse haha.
