Does anyone play?
i did play but ive traded in recently because ive heard fifa manager 08 is very good :P but i do love football manager still ive had every football manager since 2003
I play, a fair few games into my new game with Anderlecht at the moment, it's a good game. :] A hell of a lot better than FM 07.. which I despised. I'm glad to see less games of:
Your team - 25 shots, 0 goals.
Their team - 2 shots, 1 goal.
Yeah, I'm nearing the end of season 3, first 2 seasons I was Portsmouth manager, didn't win anything; they fired me cos I went from 6th to 13th over the 2 seasons; and now I'm with Southampton (Fierce Rivals? Fault much). And am trying to avoid relegation currently!
Bit harsh to get sacked for that imo. Did you by any chance get ridiculously high expectations? I haven't been Portsmouth but for some other teams you're expected do the impossible.Quote:

I got Robinho and Mascherno on a free transfer in season 2010-2011.. was mint lol, apart from Robinho wanting 140k per week!
That's 1 heck of a good squad Paul, apart from the defence, but they could be good now, never know! :P Liking the formation you've created also!Quote:

Speaking of Pompey, there top atm lol
Very good squad there, I only play FM08 Handheld (PSP)
I got FM08 yesterday the last time i had it was in 2002 or somthing lol. Can you still get offered international jobs on there? Ie England
Yeah you can, my brother did one season with Halifax [got them promoted] then got offered the England job. XD You can start off as international manager as well. It's only really fun if you're doing a club job at the same time though imo.Quote:

I've heard some quite good things about this game. Only question is: is it better than Premier Manager for the PS2? :P Came out in about 2002/3 I think and that would be the last footie manager game I played.
LOADS better, you can interact with players ect ect..Quote:

Are you referring to praise/punishment? I heard there are some clever aspects with regard to that.Quote:
