Started a new game with Leicester after getting bored and made mistake by going on holiday for periods of the 4th season. 7 games in and sitting top after winning 5 games and drawing 2.

Signed Verriti at 2nd try after not understanding why it didnt go through the first try. Signed Darwin Quintero. Current team

Kasper

Peltier Mills Bamba Konchesky

King Wellens

Gallegher Verritti Schulpp

Quintero

Dyer, pantsil both pushing for starting 11. I normally sell Dyer but he has been on fire. Schulpp is playing well and scoring the odd goal. Just need to get Fierro signed up in jan or the summer with some new centre mids and wingers but tempted to bring the kid in from the youth team Pier L (not going to attempt to spell his name).

Any one played him? does he do any good

Also has anyone signed Danny Haynes only signed him so that I have more options up front but he is doing amazing I play him and beckford up front. Beckford as the deep lying forward. They have both scored a combined of 40 goals just half way past the season !! Beckfords got 21 in 19 games and haynes has got 22 in 24 games !! And I forgot to mention he is also quite cheap I picked him up for 2 million and his agent asks for £15,000 a week on a rotation system ? Thought that was quite good myself ?

Brad Friedel just bought Newcastle United and installed Alan Shearer as manager. lol.

I got major 2nd season syndrome.

My team finished 8th in the first season in the Prem.

Second season I'm in a relegation battle, or was until I won the last 2 games pushing me up to 13th.

I'm putting it down to selling Sol Bamba for £6M. But I did buy Xulu, who looks as good if not better as a replacement.

I got the 3rd season syndome in the prem. Kept Leicester up, then finished 4th in the 2nd season. Struggled to live up to this expectation in the the season after, getting knocked out the champs league and euro = not a happy board

Turned down the Spurs and England National Jobs to stay at Leicester. Just started my sixth season, only played the one game like; and beat West Brom 2-0 (Sturridge, Spence). Hopefully this season will be a good one.

You do know, you can manage a national side at the same time as a club :P

lol Yeah, but I do not like managing a club and country at the same time, I get bored managing a country instead of a club and it is club over country for me anyway.

If I don't win the Serie A with Napoli this year I will be fvcking fuming. (On 11 this)

De Sanctis

Maggio - Phil Jones - Victor Ruiz - Digne

Annan - Sissoko

Jose Sosa - Hamsik - Lavezzi

Cavani

Subs; Butland, Toloi, Fabio, Blasi, Kovacic, Gotze, Gameiro

5th season with Leicester, finished 2nd in the Prem last season and 3rd the season before that; going for the title this year.

Almost turned into Man City reserves last season with Balotelli, David Silva (loan, paying 10% wages) and Samir Nasri all in (all transfer listed? :blink: )

Sold Nasri to United for £19.5m (bought for £2.3m) and Silva's loan finished but sitting top after 6 games, 100% win record.

Team looks like this:

David Ospina

Lee Hodson

Chris Samba

Danny Wilson

Loic Thomas (regen)

Bruma (Sporting winger)

Andy King

Ruben Yttergard Jensen

Nicolas Jacq (regen)

Sami Allagui

Mario Balotelli

Also converted Bamba into an accomplished centre midfielder, but he's currently backup to Kingy

Well I actually just converted him for cover but he put in some great performances, IRL I'm not great with the idea, he'll put us under pressure too much

The problem with approaching any game with the scope of the Football Manager series is that you're never 100 percent certain that the snazzy new feature you're making 'ooh' noises at is one that's unique to this iteration, such is the scale of Sports Interactive's baby. And with a game that has no figurehead to reclothe and no hi-res textures to polish up, how do you make the most detailed, no-statistics-left-behind management game even more complex? And is complexity even the end game?

I have a theory whereby the clothing and demeanour of the male model on the front of a Football Manager game dictates how revolutionary the title is. For example, in 2005 our man was wearing a functional padded jacket a la Harry Redknapp – a man who clearly dressed in a hurry. And sure enough, that year was one in which FM was in a brutal race to the shelves with rival Championship Manager, after mummy Eidos and daddy Sports Interactive had gone their separate ways. Jump forward to 2007's box art and the game was rocking a Mourinho long woollen coat and tie combo. The message: we're looking great and we know it. FM 2008, and our manager is now a little chubbier in the face, and the game similarly is fit to burst – this year sees the return of the Dutch national team, and a newly licensed Ligue 1.

On the box for last year's effort our man was decked out in high-waisted Simon Cowell slacks and in desperate need of a shave. Also, for some reason he's standing in the middle of a packed out stadium with a football under his arm, which looks a bit mental. Having a bit of a breakdown perhaps? Has success got the better of the gaffer?

Would you mind changing your username to Willis so this out-dated meme would be more appropriate:
