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

    Lost to Inter in the TIM Cup Semis so I'm out of that competition. I have a 12 point lead in Serie A with 6 games to play, so I'm going to win the league in back to back years. As for the CL, here's the semifinal draw:

      Lyon has knocked me out of the Champions League twice at Liverpool. And they crushed me both times. Careful.

        Lyon knocked me out of the CL last season in the first knockout stages, and they just did it again this season in the semis. Unbelievable. They're my kryptonite. I lost both starting strikers to injury for both legs, but it wouldn't have mattered as they simply outplayed me. Man I hate them.

        In other news I need to secure a single point from one of my next three matches to guarantee winning the league. If I lose all three matches, goal differential will come into effect. As I'm only +2 in goal differential over Milan (who trail me by 9 points), I don't want to let it come to that.

          FM is the only game where I run around happy after beating a team like Argentina. I also beat Japan and qualified for the knockout stage.

          Never let fear determine who you are. Never let where you came from determine where you are going.

              Had a bad result vs. Japan in my first WC game:



              If I have a poor performance in the WC, the only people in Italy that won't hate me will be the Palmero fans.

                And another poor result. With Cameroon leading the group with 4 points, I need to beat them in my final match to advance.

                  Going into the final week with QPR, in 2nd place with 81 points. 3 behind Arsenal, but they have a 9 goal differential advantage.

                  Wound up repeating as Carling Cup champs. I am in the Finals for the FA Cup again. Lost to Arsenal in the semis of The Champions League.

                  So-So season.

                          Thanks, it took me about 80 FM Seasons to get the at Manchester United.

                          Now they do need some rebuilding, just bought my 22 year old Striker(Mullins) from QPR for $50M.

                          Now I just need a couple of midfielders.


                          Also, I was able to hire all my staff at QPR, back.

                            After getting through Gold Cup, and having a lackluster friendly schedule for rest of 2011; some big ones coming up in 2012. I took pro job as Athletic Nacional of Liga Postobon in Colombia. They have a deep history of titles and are located in Medellin. 10 league titles. 1 Libertadores title in 1989. They were in 15th place when I took over, alot of work to do, losing best players because they were all on loan from other clubs, and did not want o sign with me. Start with youth and hidden gems i hope.

                            Team USA has some good friendlies lined up, but with WCQ starting up in 2012, might lose some. Got England, Netherlands, Sweden, Swiss, and Uruguay currently lined up. Got some players been playing all of 2011 and performing for Team USA, so shall see what happens against big dawgs. Beat teams like Egypt, Japan, Suriname, Paraguay, draws and losses to colombia, portugal, chile in 2011.

                            We shall see, got Liga Postobon vacation next, transfer time......

                              After a poor performance in the WC, I jumped ship from Italy to France. In case anyone is curious, France won the WC, beating Brazil in the final.

                              So the focus begins on working towards a Serie A title three-peat for Palmero. Here are my to newest signings:
