FOOTBALL Football Manager Discussion

I'm still pissed off that I threw away a 2-0 lead against Man Utd. They scored a nothing own goal to make it 2-1 with like 10 minutes left and we bottled it. That would've been 3 crucial points as well.

 

[iridescentt]

Help.

I haven't been in touch with life for the past week because of my new Sevilla save on FM10. Take it away from me!

Like deadset, 3 days and I've had no sleep.

 

[mattfb]

lol, what season are you in? Been winning? You need to give us details of the save, not get help. haha

 

[Ollie_H]

I'm back in Switzerland now fellas, so can play fm again when I am around.

 

[treva]

I'll be around again Monday.

 

[Imager36]

Any time this week, guys? Just asking 'cause I'm off to Normandy for 4 days on Sunday.

 

[treva]

I should be around for the majority of tomorrow doing very little, so I am more than up for a session.

 

[Ollie_H]

yeah I should be around untill about 5, after that I am dragged off to watch the new Twilight film, think Ii will just laugh my away through it.

 

[treva]

Oh dear, oh dear. The Twilight films are shocking. I have promised myself never to sit through that level of crap ever again after watching the first one.

 

[mattfb]

Same Trev. Anyway I might be around, not sure.

Very angry at the stupid referee. Just got knocked out of the Champions League to Juventus on away goals after I drew 0-0 at home. It seemed like it was going to be a draw but Dzeko scored but the referee saw something no one else did and the replays showed nothing wrong Buffon jumping into the back of his defender while Dzeko nodded home Rafael's cross. Just openly criticized the referee but since it was the wrong decision, I didn't get punished by the FA as they said I had a very good reason to be angry. Ivan Bebek was the referee. Guess I should just try and finish the league season undefeated and take home a third trophy, being the FA Cup.


So far in my career:

2009/10 - Community Shield losers, League Cup Winner, FA Cup Runner Up, Champions League Winner (on penalties), Premier League Winner (26-8-4 record, 86 points)

2010/11 - Community Shield losers, Euro Super Cup Winner, Club World Championship Winner, League Cup Runner Up, Premier League Winner (already been confirmed. Record is 30-2-0 in 32 matches with 92 points. Unbelievable season), Champions League Qtr Finalists and I'm currently in the Semi Final of the FA Cup.

 

[blake]

Sounds like a real challenge..

Also guys, you might have to count me off for the network games as I'm back off to school with the holidays concluding in Queensland, so I'm going to struggle too much with time zones.

Had a bit of a break from AFC Liverpool and fm10 and returned to my favoured FM08 with a Fulham save. Beat Liverpool 1-0 but lost to United 7-1 lmfao. Rooney scored 5.

Lol, too easy with United. You've pretty much won everything. Try do it with an all English team or all youth products or something.

 

[hedger_14]

yeah. I mighr try something like that with fm11 when it comes out. I try different stuff but after a while I get bored. I remember a Man Utd challenge with only players that have played with Man Utd all their careers (e.g. Giggs, Scholes, Fletcher, Neville etc. and a whole lot of youth prospects who have been at Man Utd all their career.) The only problem was that the club was in the 11th tier of England so it was really boring. I might try doing that with Man Utd in the top division and not buy anyone and just use the players there and the players who come into my youth. All youth sounds fun as well. Get rid of all the oldies and over 21 players and sign in all the good youth prospects like Areola (I have him in this save and he's already good enough for the Premier League as I give him a few games each season and normally concedes about 1 goal a game) and Fabian Delph and all them good youth players and just try and win the league with them.

 

[mattfb]

Lol, the point of a challenge isn't to put them into tier 11 to make it easier - it's to keep them where they are but try to still win it. Keep this save going - then after a few years when you're youths have developed either;

a) all youth products
b) all English

If you do it from the start you'll probably get sacked because it'll be hard to get results.
