I just wanted to start a long thread :D

Here's the first one then:

Here was the proud moment of my first season managing Fenerbahçe:

http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/3825/fm2hv9.jpg

Got to the CL final just to be beaten 3-2 by Inter Milan! On the way I knocked out Liverpool (qualifiers), CSKA Moscow (group), Olympique de Marseille (1st knockout round), Sevilla (quarter finals) and then Real Madrid in the semis. Not a bad run :D

I'm having quite a hard time in the CL. In the first season with Arsenal, Ajax and Dinamo Kiev I only made 1 point in 6 games...and it was against Arsenal at home.

Now on second season things look good. Ended 2nd in my group and looking confident for the 1/8 against Sevilla.

The game is much harder IMO :/

uhm... yeah.. closing down doesnt really work you see.

saw it on si forum. lol

That is nice

lol, Owen hoping for a move to a big club.....that ship has sailed ;)

Alex you have to stay in the same club for like one season or more in order for them to give you the option of choosing the kind of feeder club you want (Y)

Guess I'm good after 4 seasons then! (H)

They aren't happy with knocking Chelsea out of the Champions League? :S

Maybe he means "forget" in a good way (H)

But it says "despite the positives". :p

Maybe they didn't want you to score in Stamford Bridge?

Or they think you should've won more dominantly. :p

or maybe the game's just having a go at you because you chose Fenerbahçe?

Turks (H)

Maybe they're dissappointed because no Chelsea fans were stabbed? :confused:

Maybe they're dissappointed because no Chelsea fans were stabbed? :confused:

I'm taking this as the most likely explanation.

2nd game was lost, but the team went through on ovrl score. So the board/fans are unhappy because the team lost a game. Explanation: the games confidence summary script uses the overall 2 game result instead of just using the 2nd game result hence the confusion. Small glitch

Alex, I find it very hard not to stare at your avatar for 5 minutes after spending like one reading your posts. So kudos (Y)



oh and yes, geeky bastard (6)

Makes sense, but even still, a 1-0 loss to Chelsea isn't a bad result!

In fact I won the CL that season with this game, one hell of a match:

My team appear to be the masters of second-half comebacks at the moment, firstly against Besiktas in the league:

http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/8184/besiktasli0.jpg

Followed by Barcelona in the Champions League:

Ilhan is one hell of a player:

http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/9117/ilhanzn8.jpg

Whilst I'm talking about good Turkish players, this player was in my youth team at the start of the game and a bit of tutoring from Roberto Carlos and he's brilliant:

http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/4876/canfa4.jpg

What's amazing is that neither player is even in the Turkey squad, even though they are the best Turkish players in their positions! :S

does tutoring affect ANYTHING more than just preferred moves?

does tutoring affect ANYTHING more than just preferred moves?

With Can it boosted his mental stats quite a lot. Technical stats shot up too, but that could've been the training too.

Mental boosts, but not too much.

I dunno, Can's mental stats went up a fair bit being tutored by Wenderson and Carlos. He did pick up moves too.

I hear on the SI Forums it can also change the potential of the player as well?

If it changes the potential then that's pretty huge.

I never noticed changes in potential.

FM Scout biatch (H)

If it changes the potential then that's pretty huge.

Well rumour has it it's by about 3 or 4 points, nothing that huge really! :p

FM Database editor says that Sezgin Can isn't in the game at the start, so can't really test that idea unfortunately. Ilhan has -9 potential too :D

Scout? There's a scout application? Damn didn't notice :(
Bah, who needs it anyway, its already too easy, no need to make it waaay too easy (H)

What are you saying at halftime talks Dave?

What are you saying at halftime talks Dave?

For the Besiktas one I said "do it for the supporters" and during the Barça one I told them "I want to see more from you." The turnarounds like that have happened when 4 or 5 of the players have "looked more determined." (the others "weren't listening)

the fans seem to like roberto carlos (asked him to reconsider his internatiol retirement) http://img503.imageshack.us/my.php?image=27442083yx5.jpghttp://img503.imageshack.us/my.php?image=27442083yx5.jpg

haha wouldn't it be awsome if that wasn't a bug? (H)

I am now the most sucessful manager of all time, at the age of 37 (H)

http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t10/X-Ter/Sucessful.gif

Only in FM you can win the World Cup with England (H) (H)

Not even in Mike Bassett that happened :P

I'm playing in next world cup now... with Brazil. We're favourites and we're hosting it :)

Lets see if England can retain the cup though.

Oh so satisfying, not because of the result particularly but the way it played out (H)

Recently I started playing FM again with FC Groningen. I never actually played with a club in Holland other than Ajax ofcourse. Quite a nice game. Here's my best result so far:

http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/7656/psvsu1.th.png (http://img204.imageshack.us/my.php?image=psvsu1.png)

Cody won't be happy. :p

haha, nice result there (Y)


i have been trying to manage a club in holland for a few seasons now, in my save game...it's just that i've gone from Boro to Milan (i wanted Ajax, but they didn't want me, so..), and now from Milan i've come to Chelsea, and I want to manage like Ajax or PSV, but the thing is every time i think about it it's like "meh, i'm in Chelsea", i mean...plus i'm in 2016, so i hardly know any of the players in Ajax and PSV....maybe if i manage a big spanish club, then i'll end my career at holland...


so, yeah... :p

Hmm, teams with orgasmic logos or realism?

Difficult choice...
It doesn't matter, you'll find out once you grow up.

now now, we here at the FM Forum have have a respect for eveyone..


..even retards.

Age: 13

Says enough I think...

what u all talking about? (H)

damn now we sound like loons :D


but then again, we don't play FIFA Manager, so what do we know, heh?

i played it once.. wont go back

:D:D:D:D

So proud of my boys (H)

Lol, I've never had this before...

http://img129.imageshack.us/img129/6426/camoranesiuk6.png

What do you guys think I should do? I got an offer of 16,5 m for Camoranesi, who's getting rather old and I think I have sufficient backup.

hehe, I've had that happen before...Julio Baptista asked for 100k p/m to move, but I refused....he ended up going some place else anyway...

but i really don't know if it'll happen with your player, so...it depends if you have other offers..

that fat bastard... SI should add an intimidation option
or an option that you just stop paying (or not pay the "give free transfer" money) and then go to court.
It happens all the time, esp with managers, why not put such a thing in the game?

:D:D:D:D

So proud of my boys (H)

http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/8223/evertonvjuve41xv1.jpg

Sometimes this game is SOOO unrealistic..Everton win a game without Cahill scoring? As if!!

Cahill was god-like in FM 2006 I remember. With him on AMC penetrating to the striker position he scored about 30 goals a season for me. :D

yup, in FM05 as well, he was a FM legend until this one, really (Y)

Efficiency (H)

http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/2418/romadh5.png (http://imageshack.us)

My striker partnership Trezeguet-Iaquinta with Del Piero in the back totally pwns BTW. Especially Iaquinta who scored 12 in 9 games so far. :D

http://img113.imageshack.us/img113/5186/beststrikerjo1.th.jpg (http://img113.imageshack.us/my.php?image=beststrikerjo1.jpg)

i lost the league by 2 points to them last season but beat them in FA cup final and CL final :rockman:

i think it might be the new patch

After going 4-1 down in the 1st leg...this was a great comeback from my boys! :D

hahahahaha oh my god are you ******* kidding me:

is this for real? wtf :D

Haha xD. Quite solid for a 17 year old central defender as well.

well, you know what they say about MACs (H)

He should name his first daughter Apple.

hehe, take that Getafe and Bayern :D

(they scored the 2-2 before Luque's goal)

Oh my god you guys have to check this out:

so I have my assistant planning all my friendlies. the ****er programmed a friendly cup, all good so far...until the day that I actually play that cup, in which I find out ALL. MY. PLAYERS. were on vacation. :|

result, a team of grey ****ers who didn't have one single stat above 11, lost 0-9 against sporting and two of them were sent off.. (Y) way to go SI, just another proof of how much they ****ed up this year.

http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/2759/omgzzzaz5.jpg

oh, and as it was a cup, I now have to play leverkusen in the 3rd spot game...



Really, really good SI. I want to have a baby with you, so I can murder him.

hah! that should be quoted and sent to SI in a white envelope. the envelope should also contain antrax.

Same sh*t happens as well for me, always after the transfer market closing. Looks the numbers got reset.

Yeah SI, gtfo.

you want to know the cherry on top of the cake? the fans are pissed now, because of the heavy loss.




Wow, just wow.

its a submit front/backwards issue. had that prob my self but I always save before i hit submit.

huh?




btw, talk about domination (H)

http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/1783/voetballervanhetjaar200xb4.jpg

AAAARGH FFS! I am so pissed of right now. I mean this 4-2-4 at the end of games is getting fu'cking ridiculous. There is no way that this is actually HUMANLY possible. It's pathetic the amount of times this has happened to me - no matter what tactics i play to hold a led - EVEN OF THREE F'UCKING GOALS.

ffs si, sort it out.

http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/7271/ffscomeoffitle3.jpg

now imagine if you play as a club that barely makes it into the european competition... and gets a lead. maybe even a two goal lead. then BAM... ****ed in the ass. kill me. just kill me.

Happens a lot if you ask me.

Serie C1 here I come

haha congratulations man, that's fantastic, I had never seen that :p


probably because I'm a club whore :( hehe

Here are two Owanage from my brother's careeer at Manchester United:

http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll70/devangandhi/Picture1.jpg
5-0 down before Torres got injured, couldnt take the trashing i guess LOL
http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll70/devangandhi/Picture2.jpg

9-0 on aggregate

he then went on to win the final 3-0 against Chelsea, at moscow, he didnt take a pic as he thought it would be a bad omen for the real deal.

omelette du ownage (H)

damn, Bojan and Diego in the first season...

That's gotta be tough. Playing as man poo and all

i was just going to say. i mean it's nice, but not very hard with unlimited resources at your disposal and the lure of players wanting to play for such a decorated club. not really owning anything... more like living up to expectations

lol jelous i see, well me too, he can get Diego and bojan on full season loan and i cant, i end up editing finances so taht i can get David Villa upfront with Carlos Vela. hehe.

What is that, CM3 with the futuristic text?

yep

So cool.

okk can someone explain to me what the f3ck is that????
thatz Copa America,not the olympics...

http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w231/Mistrinho/wtf.jpg

It's something to do with the american confederations inviting a outside team to participate in the Copa América I think....

Yes, two nations from other federations are invited, of which one is usually Mexico. Japan, USA, Costa Rica, and Honduras have also had the honour. All 10 CONMEBOL teams are in, and 2 extras make up a sort of decent tournament setup.

Englad are taking whatever they can after the Euro failure.

Aaah ok thx guys,it was a little strange that England is playing in Copa America...and now i realized that Mexico is not from CONMEBOL,but they were playing at COPA AMERICA 2007...Thx Again!

One of my proudest moments in FM. Beating Milan at the San Siro with Villa in my second season. Sheva scoring was just the icing on the cake.

Daz using Pizarro!!! FTW!!!!!!!! (H)

heh. got him on loan from Chelsea. Had a great start to the season with about 6 goals in 6 games. But poor form hit then and he hasn't really recovered.

Its things like this that seriously piss me off about this game. I mean, come on NINE MINUTES of extra time!? There was no major events during the game at all to justify it, and inevitably not only did they equalise, they went onto win the game. AARRGH

(I'm Everton btw)

http://img58.imageshack.us/img58/1927/nineminutesup4.jpg

They equalised in the 89th minute, so you can't blame the game for that (H)

http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g86/Ced20/interwho.jpg

i'm loving it (H)




but that year the same year my team did wonders. I finished 15th in the premiership 8| but the year before that they finished 4th.
