Yeah. I'm going to try and get through a few more seasons before in FM10 before it comes out and I get it.
Edin Dzeko has been sensational just taking the World Footballer of the Year and World Player of the Year, European Footballer of the Year and European Striker of the Year for the second year in a row.
His 2010 year was excellent with:
49 appearances, 52 goals, 20 assists and an average rating of 8.23
His 2011 year again was superb with:
52 appearances, 49 goals, 29 assists and an average rating of 8.03
His value is 29.5M pounds, rising from 25M when I bought him. Igor Akinfeev was also named European goalkeeper of the year after being third the previous year and Alan Dzagoev was third placed in the European Midfielder of the Year. Hulk also took third place in the Footballer of the Year with 18 goals and 33 assists in 44 matches. He's the goalscorer for Brazil and the goal creator for Man Utd.

Why does de Rossi give away so many fouls. He has been given 6 yellow cards in the last 9 games and 21 yellows and 2 reds since joining Man Utd in 48 league games.

Aybody been playing the FM2011 demo? It's absolutely brilliant. The new interaction features make the off-field action so much more interesting. And the addition of agents is excellent. Not only have they improved off the pitch but on the pitch as well. Even had a match where the weather started out sunny, started raining after 30 mins and then stopped before the end of the game.
Started a season with Crystal Palace. Had a shocking pre-season and drew the season opener with Reading 0-0, away from home. Signed Jeremie Aliadiere and brought in Tom Soares and David Somme on loan. Will be a challenge with a small squad and no money but I look forward to it.

I've had a brief go on the demo and its superb.
The new conversational interaction improves the games immeasurably for my liking as you can finally have a chat with a player who's causing problems or I want to do certain things. The agents are a superb addition makes contract negotiations feel pretty much as they would in real life. ME is once again improved and the animations have improved again.
Although you can't see how it works in the demo Dynamic League reputation makes it a must buy for me although I haven't decided which league I'm going to take to greatness yet. Probably Wales.
Started as Nottingham Forest currently 3rd without having lost a match in the league 12 matches in have drawn quite a few matches though due to Earnshaw not firing. Not made many additions to the squad though they've got most bases covered well.
Themer added 9 Minutes and 46 Seconds later...
I wished they'd let you start a new game as in the full game though because I don't want to continue any games with a small database and only one nation's league's loaded.

Aliadiere is gun in the Championship. Just finished the first month of the league season and he picked up Player of the Month scoring 6 goals in 5 league appearances (7 in 7 overall). This included a match winning hat-trick at home to Derby in my last match, which we came from behind twice to win 3-2 in the final minute.
Just about to play Sheff Utd away from home. Loving it so far and have got my Amazon pre-order in today.

I like the fact that Josh McEachran is described as being dubbed "the new David Dunn" by the media. Hardly someone to aspire to.
Started the game with Man Utd, and have won 4 of my games so far in the prem. In fact I think I have won every game this season including all of pre-season. Won two trophies, both on pens, the Community Shield and some random Pre-Season cup that I had organized. Top of the prem, and won Manager of the Month in August.
Made a few transfers, swapped Park for Mexes from Roma, then bought a 16 year old who won't come to the club untill June 2012 (
) and another young'un who I let stay at his club for the rest of the season. The one thing I would like to have in the game is the option to buy him and then loan him straight back, I guess the best way of doing is to just set the transfer date to the end of the season though?
Really enjoying the game, although it does run quite slowly, might have to free up some more space by uninstalling a few things. Overall, as always, I will be buying when the full thing is out.

Loving the demo so far. Started a game with Man Utd, didn't sign or sell (excluding loaning a few youngsters) as I felt my squad was good enough.
First game was the Community Shield vs Chelsea, and I was still tweaking my side. It was a dull 0-0 which went to penalties which I won (John Terry missed lol). First premiership game was against Arsenal. Offensively I've got it perfect and I scored 2 good goals and should've scored a couple more, however we conceded 3 and lost 3-2. Since then, I've been going great in the league with 4 wins.
In the league cup I had Everton, and I tried experimenting an idea I'd been thinking about. Unfortunately it back-fired and we lost 3-0. There were gaps in the defence everywhere.
The player/media interaction has improved so much. Roma unsettled Park so I had to have a word with him. The conversations are much better. I worked my magic and he's agreed that he still has a lot to achieve at Utd.

'Counago out for the rest of his loan spell' - Bugger! Time to find another player of his quality to get in ASAP.
EDIT: Oh wait, he's out for 3 months but his loan deal is until the end of the season. Still will miss the majority, though.

It is, it is. That was thoroughly enjoyable for the few hours we did all play together. With me being at uni I have pretty much as much time as I want to play, so I don't mind being host if we want to have a crack at an FM11 online game. Thinking we should maybe wait a month or two first, though.

I had Bertrand get injured for over 8 months on mine so his loan was quickly terminated. Leaves a gaping hole in the left side of my defense now.
Best man I could get in to replace him was Richard Eckersley as a loanee and he's barely half as good.

Well it completely destroys my perfect duo up front. Counago was playing as a 'complete forward' and Aliadiere as a 'poacher'. Aliadiere would finish off moves and Counago would get the assists. Now I need someone to come in quickly because the rest of my attack are young and inexperienced.
