A few things that piss me off about FM

- Too many injuries !

- When you lose, You lose heavily

- You lose to stupid teams , that are bottom of the league

- Alway's start the season of well , then go shit when ever i'm high in the table , like it don't want me to do well

- I disagree... the number of injuries seems pretty accurate!

- Nope, can't say I've experienced that... the odd defeat might be heavy, but it's nothing regular. I believe your tactics and formation have a lot to say about this ;)

- Can't say I do... I usually beat lower placed teams, and lose to the big boys

- Again, I have to say I started off crap and slowly worked my way up. Besides, you can't criticise this as football is often unpredictable. It's not a bug in the game anyway...

I'm thinking of resigning of Leicester manager ! Need a new challenge !

I've just resigned cos we're bottom of the prem and going nowhere, so cos i didn't want to drag the club down i left. Now just accepted the west brom job

I would NEVER resign from the Leicester job!! I would rather not continue playing the game and just leave the savegame to rot if I really wanted to play with another team ;)

Yeah cos winning the league losing just 5 games is bad isn't it, not mentioning a carling cup semi final :thumbup:

I admit i didn't buy the right players, Stead for £10m was the biggest mistake i've ever made :unsure::mad:

LMAO!!!!!!! That is soooo funny!!! lol :w00t: :D

I think most people on here have won the Championship with Leicester - it's how well you do in the Premiership that matters :thumbup:

It's the boards fault really, they made a whopping £10m avaliable to spend for some odd reason, i had to spend it on someone :unsure: He scored 3 goals in 13 games, and when i left he was in the ressies :w00t:

I won the premier on CM is it as easier on FM???

44773[/snapback]

If you're a half-good manager it is always easy... That's the way these games are and it will never change...it has been made a bit harder though. You won't win the Prem right after promotion ;) (unless someone discovers a 'super tactic'). CM was very easy...

Yeah but surely there were better players to spend £10million on? He's not even valued anywhere near £10m on my game - why did you buy him?

I like the fatc there is not a super tactic that always wins! That was one of the real problems with some of the old champuionship manager games if you found a winning formation it would always win no matter who you played and who you were playing against.

FM is far more complex.

I've been offered the Sheep job , I might take it  ;)

You traitor! :P

I'd like to take Leicester as high as I possibly could, and if I reached the peak I would want to take on a bigger club - Derby wouldn't be worth moving to.

Still in pre-season going in to my second season after winning the league. Liverpool made a shocking £4.5 million bid for Pablo Counago and I could hardly refuse that even though he scored 28 goals in 33 games. I was then in a dilemma whether to replace Counago or promote Petrescu in to the first team full-time after an impressive 11 goals in 15 first team appearances.

I decided to sign Freddy Adu and see how Petrescu got on in pre-season, I did already have Amoruso and Van Der Gun signed on bosmans. Petrescu has scored a hat-trick against Hibernian in a friendly so far so I might stick with a striking force of Amoruso, Van Der Gun, Connolly, Petrescu, Wright and Adu.

I have just finished my 2nd season as manager of LCFC, and my first in the Premiership.

Thankfully I avoided relegation by a whisker, although there were no shortage of problems along the way. I only finished on 31 points in total, although it was still more than Bolton, charlton, QPR and Norwich. ;)

Still pretty poor and much room for improvement - my defence looks terrible and my top scorer (Olisadebe) only managed 11 goals. :(

Oh well, staying up in my first season in the Prem is still a good achievement, and better than most expected.

Oh, and my major problem concerns the focker that is Michael Jacobson who I signed from PSV. The guy keeps skiving training and I do everything I can to discipline him (started out out on 1 week fine, thereafter 2 weeks). He ignores my fines most of the time but recently accepted that he was wrong and would improve his attitude, but then misses training again the following week. I have transfer-listed him (even though he's a decent centre back) - and on his personal profile he says he dislikes me and feels he was brought to the club under false pretences.

What am I meant to do? I have played him in the 1st team for the last 5-6 games and he still pisses about.

Offer him to other clubs, then buy another centre back.
