Football Manager

Finally started a Newcastle game, with the new patch and all. Had a rough start to preseason, which included a 3-1 away loss to Walsall. That was all wiped away with a 4-0 smashing of West Brom at the Hawthornes

A couple of astute loan signings look like they will be key. Was really disappointed with my depth on the wings, so I brought in the Swede Kennedy from Ajax. He bagged two goals in the first game, and looks a keeper

Also wanted some cover for Enrique, as Kadar isn't exactly the best full back in the world. So I brought in Jlloyd Samuel from Blackburn. He started the first match and had a 7.80 rating. Hopefully he can keep that up.

The other big signing was Hedwiges Maduro from Valenica. A solid Dutch player, I really hate Alan Smith, so will be looking at him to back up Nolan and Barton in the middle of the park.

Also signed Ritchie De Laet from Man U for his versatility. Probably won't play much, but doesn't cost much
 
Rough draw there.

Newcastle game has been great lately, took a point off Arsenal, sitting at 5th in the table. Just advanced to the quarterfinal of the League Cup with a 4-1 win against the Gunnners. Cardoza and Marquinhos have been immense. Getting Zaki off my hands in January for 5mil, should be getting Yohan Cabaye for the same price, he's been a dud at Man Utd and in past games for me, but my scouts are giving him 5 stars. Really have my eye on Giuliano and Sandro to help Marquinhos adjust, but probably won't get them until the summer. Hopefully picking up a striker from Kyiv too.
 
Ha yeah, just drew Man City 2-2 away and my fans are disappointed.

Sorry about that guys, I'll work on winning against the 2nd place team in the league.
 
I can not find this for mac. I've been googling and cannot find it. I got the demo no problem but now it doesn't want to work. I prefer to download right off the interwebz.

Fuck someone get me out of N. Ireland. I'm trying to get to England but I'm not getting any job offers. I'm think of heading to Bristol City in League 1 just to get out of N. Ireland.

I'm aiming for a Championship level club, but I'm being passed over for guys like Sol Campbell. WTF. I've actually won trophies as a manager, he hasn't even had a coaching job yet. Oh and then there's Giggs who stole the Portsmouth job from me.

Ok, I finally got everything going and am into my second season with the Galaxy. Things I am having problems with is my forwards not wanting to shoot when they are on breakaways. I don't know what it is but this one forward I have just won't shoot the ball when he is on a clear breakaway inside the box. Any suggestions?
 
I decided to start a new game and go in unemployed. Took me 350 days to finally get a job with Aldershot of the Coca-Cola League 2.
 
Wow, that's awesome. That's what I put mine at and I was stuck in lower level Portugal.

After my current game I'm going to try one of those, hoping for about a decade of playing.

Isn't Aldershot a Blue Square team to start? Their club rep will still be pretty low, even if he does get the job. 350 days would be one season, probably into June. Not a huge surprise, but not a bad job to start

I'm bringing in some experience to get this team on track.

Edit- All 5 of the clubs keepers are injured for atleast a month, and I can't sign one for another 2 weeks. I'm stuck with greyed out keepers for my next 3 matches. Let's see how this goes.

Pssh, you complain about Sol Campbell getting better jobs than you, then you go out and hire a bunch of shitty explayers as your staff! What a double standard...
 
This post will probably not exist later, but meh.

I got the 10.3 patch and decided to start over with Manchester City now that I have a general idea of what I'm doing. I found me a formation that I'm pretty happy with (would be even better if Robinho wasn't out on loan for the year at Santos, as he would fit the the treqaurtista role to a "T" in the formation I'm using.

This is the thread on the SI forums for the tactic I'm using: http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=195909

About 2 weeks prior to my first mach I was left without a striker as Adebayor got a random severe viral infection and is going to miss 8 to 9 months to be treated by a specialist (lol, viral infection, he's probably got AIDS). Santa Cruz starts the season injured for a couple months as well, and Jo starts out on loan, so that left me with nothing.

I scrambled to find anything, and I actually managed to get two pretty strong ones, David Trezeguet on loan from Juventus (I found it kind of weird that Juve would be loaning out a 29-year-old striker with 19 finishing/19 composure, but I'm not complaining. The strike role in this formation is a poacher, and the key ratings are finishing, pace, and composure, so Trezeguet is a steal for a loan, IMO. I also brought in Filippo Inzaghi for a relatively cheap transfer fee, so those two guys are certain to be key players for this year anyway until Adebayor recovers.

My other acquisition in the search for a trequartista, was Guti, who also came relatively cheap. I wasn't looking into an expensive or long-term solution at the spot as I feel Robinho will be the ideal candidate there.

So, my selection is:

------Trezeguet----Tevez---------
--------------Guti-----------------
Barry-------------------------SWP
-------------Vieira----------------
Bridge---Lescott---Richards---Toure
 
Oh my God, 8-9 months for a viral infection? I've never heard of that in FM. Probably did it because he's African, but if it's AIDS I'll have to talk to him, I know what it takes to get through such a tough time.
 
Just came to make this thread but I see some of it survived. As I stated on the recently deceased SL, I'm playing with Bayern on the side while continuing into the 4th year of my Liverpool game.

I had to dig this out of the trash.

The trash! Can you believe that shit?

How are you liking Bayern? I love playing with them. I want to start a game with Dortmund, Bremen, HSV, or Schalke, but I'd only want to do it if I could sign Muller. I know I can use the editor, but when I do things like that, I find that I don't play those games very long before I feel like I cheated.
Click to expand...

I didn't even know you could edit players to different teams.

I like playing with Bayern so far, Muller gets solid playing time because Robben is always tired because his stamina rating is 10. I'm running a 4-2-4 basically with 2 central mids, 2 attacking wingers, and 2 strikers. I thought about using the formation I use with Liverpool but I decided to develop a new one instead. I'm still tweaking it.

I signed Nicolas Otamendi as well who looks like a great future player and will likely sell Ribery after my first season seeing as Man City wants him badly. I just really wish I could recall Toni Kroos from his loan.
 
heelswxman said:
Otamendi turns into a superstar.

I'd sell Ribery, then go out and buy Hazard for half the price and pocket the rest. Kroos being out on loan hurts, but he'll feature for you when he gets back. Take a look at Bender from Leverkusen, dude is a stud.

I'm also looking at trying to bring in someone like Dzeko. Klose will be fine for this year but he's getting up there.
 
heelswxman said:
Oh I meant to ask, how has Adam Pepper developed in your Liverpool game?

He doesn't have a fixed PA so he can be good or bad depending on the save. In my Preston North End game he's turned into a Gerrard clone and captains England.

In real life, he's expected to be huge at Liverpool. Time will tell. I mean they said the same thing about Spearing and he's been less than impressive.
Click to expand...

He's no longer on my team and is on Sheffield. He really isn't anything special.
 
I'm Barcelona and I don't get why for every single Cup I draw Real Madrid in either the Quarters or Semis. Every time without fail I draw them. With in four years I end up playing them about 25 times.
