I maintain that Defoe is (and always has been) shockingly wank on FM, and rightly so.

 

[Zlatan]

Yep, there aren't many strikers in the FM world better than him. Pretty unrealistic.

 

[PaPaGeorGeo]

Thierry Henry

Pazzini is pretty ace as well

 

[ShiftyPowers]

I managed Fiorentina one season, Pazzini was a bench warmer behind Bojinov and Toni.

 

[PaPaGeorGeo]

I signed him for Arsenal, 30+ goal player although i think in my team a blind man would score. Still hes good

haha, three of the best strikers in the game at one club, no wonder Fiorentina are so good.

 

[Socrates]

Indeed they have a strong frontline but the problem is after one season all the good players that are loaned in leave and than it becomes hard to replace them. In my game which went to about 2016 I would say that Pazzini was the best player for me, always scored 30 or more goals a season, I think in one he got 45. Bojinov becomes a hell of a goalscorer too.

 

[PSVFOREVER]

Fiorentina isnt that good in the game, they always end low in the midtable in my games. Teams like Palermo and Sampdoria have better selections.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

I almost completed the Leverkusen Loser Treble with Koln

I was up on Bayern by 6 points with three games left, I lost two and drew one, and of course Bayern won all three.

I lost to Liverpool in a penalty shootout in the Champions League Final because none of my players could score. My keeper was amazing, he let in the first three, but rallied and saved the next three, but unfortunately my team was so crap we only converted 4/8 penalties, and the game was lost by my soon to be replaced captain Lukas Sinkiewicz.

Luckily I hammered Wolfsburg 5-1 in the German Cup or else I may have cried myself to sleep last night.

 

[Socrates]

Second season with Tottenham is finished ( took me a while ) and it was very sucessful. Won everything, beat that Mourinho

The League


I won the league with some games to go so I used my reserves for the last games ( a lot of my backups where complianing about not playing enough and my first team players needed rest ), after seeing them play I need to get better backup players for my defence and a better GK.

Carling Cup Final ( almost lost this one )


FA Cup Final


CL Final


I am also doing really good with Portugal.

 

[Socrates]

Whats the limit of pics I can post in one page? Is it 6? Anyways an update on my game.

Transfers In/Out


My team


Its kind of weird how whenever Defoe gets healed Vucinic gets injured. Oh and he is awsome btw.

Results so far, the defence is looking good


Hopefully I can win it all again and I wan to win the Euro with Portugal ( or get 3rd place, either will do ).

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Wow, looks like a damn good tactic. I'm gearing up for World Cup 2010 with England. Portugal offered me the job in the summer of 2009 (a year after I took the England job, and with only a couple more qualifiers to go) and I seriously considered it, but I just didn't think I could do that to the English people.

Heh, I would stick with England, they have better players. Portugal has a very good starting eleven but after that its kind of weak. I am hoping to win/do really win in the Euro than take over England.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Well I'm just intrigued by their players, it's 2010, so the young players have developed by now. Like Joao Moutinho. Plus there are Brazilians playing in Portugal with Portuguese passports.

I just sold Javier Mascherano

Manchester United gave me 40M Euros, and I couldn't turn it down. I used 22M of it to buy Nigel De Jong as a replacement, but it's tough to sell the captain of your team.

I wish that were the case in my game, Moutinho is not up to par with Deco yet but should be soon. Also Manuel Fernandes is a good talent. I wish I had some Brazilians ( there very overrated ) with Portuguese passports to pick ( my RB and LB are weak...Nuno Valente is my best LB... and he is old ).

Ouch, Javier is an awsome player. You should take a look into Lorik Cana, he is awsome as a DM. De Jong looks pretty good too.

 

[Zlatan]

Lorik is the man. He scores alot from corners and free kicks for me and bosses the midfield like Vieira for example. Always on an 8 or higher rating for me.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Yeah, I know Lorik is a great player, but De Jong had the added bonus that I would be taking him away from Hamburg SV, which is a big rival of mine in the German league.

I don't need guys to score on corner kicks, I use the cheating method where my best striker stands right outside the box unmarked, and all the other teams players along with all of my players stand on the posts.

Fred had 49 Bundesliga Goals last season

Although only 15 or fewer were on the corner kick cheat. Fred is amazing. If I have him for another 8 years he could score 1000 career goals.

haha I use the same thing for corners, I have Defoe and Vucinic as my scorers on those coners. . Vucinic socred 4 in on game once.... What a bug that is. It is kind of risky though, I have had the opposisiton score becuase my last guy back was either slow or injured himslef and than the attacking players takes off and scores...

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Yeah it is risky. I find that the right back is the default guy who stays back, so if the right back is also the default corner taker, then you will have no one back.

But my problems of having the last man get beat on a counter attack are completely over, Anthony Vanden Borre NEVER gets beat. He is amazing.

 

[PSVFOREVER]

I worked 2 years to get to this point, and now it comes down to 1 game: Can't remember a situation in a group stage with this amount of excitement. I have to beat Portugal, but they are the best team in the group so far (they were way better than Italy and Ireland but didnt manage to win, Italy scored 2-2 in the 91st minute, Ireland scored the 1-1 in the 86th minute)

Portugal-Denmark will be an encounter between 2 Dutch managers Me vs. Ronald Koeman
