Triumph And Tragedy Of Football Manager :2010 Edition

lol they really are tossers

went on to win the world cup as England at first attempt

won 11 drew 1 in my 2012 qualifying group

only had one Tragedy on football manager this year and that was finished 4th just out side the champions League place with arsenal by a point and got to the final of the champions League only to lose to AC Milian 2-1 anyway i get to the next season and my first game was against Southampton and i lost 4-1 i got a really bad reaction back from the chairmen. 2nd game of the season i lose to Manchester United 3-1 i then make a signing on Henry for 28m to bring him back spending all the clubs money for them to Fire me the next day im now in control of the great Wolves in the coca cola Championship where i am 5 points clear of a play off placeand 2 points clear of 2nd place the league has 3 games left and looks like i could be heading back to the premiership where i plan on hammering arsenal

yeh whilst still incharge of England i am also the Ipswich manager mid table in the championship and buying/loaning a few of the england players

well somebodys cheating surley lol ipswich manager and england surley youd have to be a prem manager to get england job lol :S

anyway recently booted up my west ham game so i can do second season.

going okay, not as well, got knocked out of the league cup right away

as i finished 2nd last year amazingly, i was drawn in a champions league group with Roma, Olympiacos and REAL MADRID, so far drawn vs the first two, and smashed madrid 3-1 Played 4 at the back 3 dms and then 3 attackers lol.

Green
Spector Tomkins Henrique Rat
-----Parker Gilberto Kovac

------------Acosta
---------Baros Ashton

basically defended for 25 min shitting it, baros broke away for a one on one, slotted it home. more defending, long shots flying over the bar

The pressure then got to Diarra and he kept fouling my players and he got a red

then we kept the ball for about 20 passes and kovac smashed one in low from 30 yards

then henrique scored a header 2nd half

higuain got a conselation on 88 lol

i then only managed to scrape past wolves and blackburn did not deserve to win both at all.

higuain is far better than baros

he plays for madrid, baros plays for west ham.

good point well made junior lol.

10 goals in 13 games in total for me though

omg he just scored again, first chance 31 mins, he just jinked away from their defence and curled it from 18 yards haha

Henrique's always a nice reliable choice for centre back when you're a club that doesn't have a huge reputation.

Hadn't played FM in a while, so started a new game as Rangers. Was going reasonably well, won the domestic treble in first season but got demolished by everyone in Europe. Second season was going pretty well, got to December and was top of the league and managed to get the Europa League spot from my Champions League group (had both Leverkusen and Chelsea in my group).

But then Man City fired Mancini as they were sitting a distant 7th in the league. The lure of money was too much for me and I left (still plan on going back to my Rangers game though, got some good youngsters I wanted to see come through). In the remaining half of the season, I ended up winning the Europa League, League Cup and FA Cup and finishing second in the league having not lost a game, if only Chelsea had lost on the last day of the season, that would have been some comeback. Only a few games into second season with them, but things are looking fairly good.

I tend to rotate 22 players, but I guess this is my best 11:

---------------Given--------------------
-----Zapata-Toure-Lescott---------
--------------De Jong------------------
------Felipe Melo-Hamsik-----------
--------------Gourcuff------------------
------Aguero-Tevez-Robinho--------

My gillingham team .

Rodwell is on loan
Lavezzi quit his club
and i bought neymar

Iv gotten a bit of money from selling on playrs i got on free's as well as a hefty sum for simon king and andy barcham both to prem clubs

BTW i just lost to plymouth 5-1 at home from 1-0 up :@

kinky, i lost to madrid 2-1 spector decided to be more like his old self in this game, just floating around not marking people.

well after a 5-1 loss to plymouth i know have manu away in fa cup

attack the shit out of them lol

oh yeah, i had an angry outburst about rafa benitez not winning the league and said i will do anything to beat them.

hello fouling match

I intend to but its only 3 days later and some players are knackerd still and my asiistant said we intedn to play defensive.


I feel an arse kicking coming on

holy shit fucks football manager thats not on!

gerrard just scored from 30 yards outside his OWN area wtf

Was it a ridiculous error by your goalie by any chance sexton? My keeper scored from a goal kick in one game.

he was quite far out his goal yes, but it was an intended shot and he blasted it, he cant even kick it that far imo, it was stupidly far and powerfull

and keepers do stand outside of their box when you are attacking, not a strange thing for football, and the reason they can do it is no one can shoot from just outside their own box, i even exagerated the 30 yards, he tackles parker outside the D and hit it!

Baros is now tearing city apart, such a class signing.

he breaks offside traps so is offside a fair few times, but when he isnt he gets one on ones and just doesnt miss unless its god in goal.

in my first season i just rotated cole ashton as big guy and franco and diamanti as the skilled one, but none of them really made a case to be a top goal scorer, diamanti was a super sub but could not perform for whole games, cole and ashton swap being injured or being moaning minnies. so i offed franco and got baros, play him with diamanti or ashton, cole is being a twat this season so need to get rid and get someone in that has a bit more about them to form a proper lethal force with baros. might check how cordozo's career is going cos hes massive and skillfull

Every single game I've played on FM has done the same thing, I overachieve in my first season and then underachieve my next and get sacked at christmas, does anybody know why this happens? I just can't think what my problem is, I just seem to start getting really unlucky and then all my players lose confidence in me.
