Football Manager 2010

[Budweiser]

Started as Chelmsford City

To the Prem we go!

[Salieri]

Probably having my best game ever at the moment. Aston Villa. End of first season. Won the Uefa Cup... Finished 4th and had a certain Mr Agbonlahor scoring a total of 48 goals in 56 games!

Finished the prem season with 8 first teamers available to me due to what can only be described as an injury crisis .

Really, really enjoyed it... hopefully strengthen the squad in the summer in preparation for the champs league... anyone know any good.. reasonably priced champs league worthy players?

Im currently in a game with Villa. First season finished 5th, second season 2nd, third season im pissing the league and in the Champs League and F.A Cup Semis.

Squad includes (off the top of my head) : Akinfeev, Ochoa, Ansaldi, Maxwell, Davies, G Cahill, Henrique,Milito, Srna, Young, Kalou, Milner, Vela, Malouda, De la Red, Gago, Delph, Diarra, T Cahill, Riquelme, Sobis, Milevskyi, Macheda....missed a few no doubt but thats most of them.

Star players probably are Milevskyi (picked him up for £7 M and he is a God) Akinfeev (best keeper in the game by a mile) Srna (quality at RB or RM) and Tim Cahill/Riquelme have been superb in the CM role as advanced playmakers.

Loving this game.

Spurs won the league on mine, 16 points clear of chelsea

Has anyone with the latest patch experienced an unusual number of times your team throws away a two-goal lead? I've tried it no less than six times in 30-odd matches in my first season with Leicester. I know concentration and stamina plays a role, but I've tried keeping the tactics as they were and I've tried being defensive, but there's just no stopping the goal leakage

And has anyone noticed that DC's ratings become alot lower than on previous patches?

I noticed this, the amount of times i go into half-time at 2-0 and either draw 2-2 or lose 3-2 is ridiculous, it's very rare that I manage to hold onto a lead in this situation.

i have come back from 2-0 down to win 3-2 quite a few times in my game? meh................

anyway, wba game, top by 16 points after 40 games. 1 more win and i win the league. newcastle away next

simon cox is a monster, 31 goals in 34 games, 16 assists, followed by dorrans with 19 goals and 23 assists from midfield. cox scores with every touch just about, played liverpool in fa cup quarters and tore them to pieces even though i played a 4-1-4-1. i managed to get a 1-1 draw at anfield (dirk kuyt is soooooo over rated on this game, hes crap in real life!) and played them at home in the replay, beat them 5-1. scored 4 goals in 10 minutes with miller getting a hattrick.

signed veratti and engi bekdemir for 300k a piece in summer and with miller, giles barnes and james morrison coming back from long term injuries at the start of the game, its like having new signings that would get itno any side in the league really. signed josue (barca youngster, left back) and bagnai from fiorentina on frees.

premiership beware!

[NGoloMode]

Took me 4 seasons to get promoted in my Leicester game... and it looks like I'm going straight down again.

Heres the team I got promoted with

[StanSP]

Zinedine Zidans as a Scout on my game in 2016. Judging Ability and Potential 19 and 20 respectively

[Ricey]

Just won the Europa League, FA Cup and Premiership with Leicester after my 9th season. Got to the Champions League Final after my 7th season but lost Althletico Madrid.

Leicester are now the 2nd biggest club in England apparently

where do you find this information?

When you go the 'England' it has an Overview page, in the bottom left corner it states the countries 'Major' clubs.

Im in 4th season now and in Europa after winning league cup (finished 8th) with Leicester. Currently top of prem as well, but im sure ill go on mega losing streak soon enough.

[morris1234]

dont know how the f**k i did it but ive just won the fa cup in first season with wba. beat liverpool, everton and just now beat spurs 2-1 in final??!! love it, simon cox again picking up mom award with a 9.1 and he didnt score?! won the league after 41 games, then went on to lose every game after against teams around the relegation zone, but i did play the reserves with the final in mind!

up the baggies, just signed jimmy briand on a free aswell.

kept chester city up as i posted in the other thread but as i got to 3rd with them 4 points off the top man city came calling as they had sacked mancini because they were 10th in the league. they offered my wages of 47k a week which is a lot better than my £650 a week at chester and a transfer budget of 71m instead of 0. had to take it really. them and portsmouth approached me. feel bad for chester since they are in so much debt still but i got them to the 2nd round of the FA cup and in their first game without me they beat league 1 bournmouth 3-2 after being 2-1 down at half time.

in my first games as man city manager i beat bolton 2-0 and lost to everton 3-1. could be better. could be a lot worse but ill get building. if not ill go back to my arsenal game.

[AyewJoking]

So f****** annoyed, the game played fine the other day, now i put the disc in and nothing.

youll destroy teams with man city after a few seasons. I used them on 2009 and had an unbeaten 4th league season whilst winning the champs league and FA cup

i hope so. i did well enough in my eyes with arsenal. they go to shit after wenger leaves.

Won the league with tottenham in my FIRST season. Shocked me no end. Its the first game ive put a lot of effort into tactics and player instructions etc and it really has paid off.

Obviously with spurs having a good squad already I didnt do much in the way of signings first season:

Helder Postiga and Marco Boriello came in on loan.

Alexis Sanchez came from Udinese for 10mill. Great signing.

Second season I signed, Hangeland, David James, Joshua Kind, Taye Taiwo, Jason Steale, Andre Ayew, Chris Eagles and Jack Rodwell.

Started off OKish... second season syndrome just starting to creep in, I have however qualified for the knockouts of the champs league already though by winning my first 4 games in the group .

Have recently gone back to playing what imo is the most enjoyable (not necessarily the best) from Sports Interactive, Cm01/02. Have installed a data update so all leagues and transfers are up to date.

Just won the Champions League and Premier League title with Leicester after 4 seasons, managed to beat Barcelona 7-3 on aggregate in the Champions League semi Finals having lost to them twice with an aggregate 9-3 scoreline in the group stages

Side is pretty handy: Jean Francois Gillet, Nedum Onouha, Simon Kjaer, Ledley King, Steven Defour, Alex Song, Sami Khedira, Ryan Babel, Hulk, Luis Suarez, Hugo Almeida.

[lildave3]

Started with Burton Albion, predicted 24th but i'm doing pretty well so far. Just had an epic game against Notts County, was 4-1 down with 12 minutes to go and drew 4-4.

Won 3, drew 2 and lost 1 and sitting in 9th.

[The Doctor]

decided to play as man city -

first match Man city 6 Wigan 1 hat-trick from Lisandro Lopez , 2 from Raul Merieles (sp) 1 from Robin Van Persie.

Unfortunately bridge got injured - out for 3 months and i've now got to either spend my remaining budget (2M) on a new LB or trust on of the youth team to cover.

My signings

Lisandro Lopez - 13.5M - Lyon

Raul Merieles - 10M - Porto

Van Persie - 20M - Arsenal

Joao Moutinho - 14M - Sporting

Swienstieger (sp) - 13M - Bayern Munich

Lahm - 12M - Bayern Munich

Juan Manuel Mata - 5M - Valencia

couldn't find anyone before the end of the transfer window so i'm stuck with McGivern for 2 months

[Wilkesy]

I have a really enjoyable game going with Man City at the moment.

1st season finished 4th in the league. Currently mid-way through the 2nd season, won my champions league group with ease and im sitting top of the league having scored 53 in 18 matches. The last 3 league games were:

Arsenal 0-5 Man City

Man City 9-1 Aston Villa (only had 10 shots on target but everything flew in)

Man Utd 2-3 Man City

My best XI at the moment is:

Given

Richards

Toure

Samuel

Bridge

Kaka

Toulalan

Barry

David Silva

Kun Aguero

Adebayor

[Bugg]

Very angry

After being top of the table for nearly the whole season, 6 games remaining and my team end up losing all 6, leaving my team lying 3rd in the table and because of current form, it looks like I'm staying in the Championship.
