FOOTBALL Football Manager Discussion

I've lost my last 5 with Liverpool. My players are pissed off at me because I sold Xabi ALonso (I think thats his name). And Craig Bellamy wants to leave because of that but I won't let him because he was full gun. Harry Kewell has refused to resign with me. And Barcelona want Gerrard but I say there is no help in hell I am letting him leave.

I also lost to Man-City 5-1.
Just beat Fulham 2-0. :(

You suck! Do you have Fm08?
Why'd you sell Alonso? He is good...should of sold Bellamy instead, you have enough strikers. Kewell will get you some cash.

I'm getting this game tomorrow can't wait to play it.

No seeds aye;)

In pro evo 3 and above the have spelt Xabi Alonso Xavi Alonso. They should go to school as its not a copyright issue they just cant spell and cant be stuffed fixing it.
 
Should I get FM08?

Is it better than 07?
Yes.

Its waaay faster then 07, better features and so on.
I normally dont bother updating management games because they are always just roster updates...but mate, you need to get 08!

SI need to fix that sort of thing with a patch, it is too unrealistic.

Then dump the files in their respective folders, load game, turn OFF skin cache, reload skin.. Sorted

Started playing Fm 08 again this morning. Just beat Inter away 2-0 with goals from Gattuso and Gourcuff, to take my lead at the top of Serie A to 8 points. My record in the league so far, is played 16, won 14, drawn 2, lost 0. The only worrying point is the amount of goals conceded, i've conceded 11 goals, compared with the likes of Palermo and Inter who have only conceded 7. It's not a major problem, 11 conceded in 16 isnt bad, but we give away too many chances. I have acted on this, but securing the signing of Dani Alves for ?16million. He will sign in January, along with Elano and Hatem Ben Arfa. This will leave me with ?5million left to spend, but i plan on getting more funds. I am hoping to sell, Gilardino, Inzaghi, Emerson, Abbiati and Ambrosini which should free up some funds. I will then go in search of a goalkeeper, with Igor Akinfeev my top target. If i get him, my best First XI will be as follows:

---------------------Akinfeev---------------------------
-----Alves-------Nesta------Gamberini-------Kaladze-----

------------------Pirlo------Gattuso---------------------

---------Elano---------Kaka-----------Ben Arfa----------

--------------------Amauri/Pato-------------------------

What you reckon ?

So I take it if it is worth getting if you have 07 it is worth getting if you have 06?
 
Just downloaded a db where every club in England and Scotland has massively improved finances. With Man U i had ?800million to spend, it may be cheating, but its fecking fun. Here are my transfers in so far:
Kaka- ?128million
Cesc Fabregas- ?212million
Ezequiel Garay- ?28million
Igor Akinfeev- ?22million
Dani Alves- ?41.5million
Joao Moutinho- ?22.5million

I need a back-up striker so am buying Sergio Aguero for ?40million, pretty good deal for a back-up :p. My results so far in the league have been pretty impressive. 2-0 against Villa and then a 7-1 hammering against a woeful Middlesborough. Goals from Tevez (3), Rooney (2) and Garay (2) sealed the win. Some of the transfers are pretty cool aswell, Shevchenko to Bolton, Adebayor to Middlesborough, Michael Johnson to Derby, Barzagli to Newcastle, Huntelaar to Sunderland and Rafael Sobis to Birmingham just to name a few. This DB is too fun :P.
