Gaming Football Manager 2010

ive been treying to get that Ba bloke, hes still at his original club and they want like 30m and i just blew most of my budget on akinfeev :(

To be fair he's worth about that much if you can stump it up.

The summer I got him I initially offered Barca 10 mil for him and they said that they wanted 28 so I thought feck that I'll make do with Necid. A month later they offered him to me for 2.7, so there was an element of luck there.

I might continue on with that game actually... I finished like 8th, 9th, 9th in my first three seasons in the Prem and got a bit bored. This is from my first season up

Page 62 in this thread and onwards is just me waxing lyrical about Ba.

(Did I mention that he was trained at Watford and would count as a HG player?)
 
Struggling a bit now.

Munich beat me 2-0 away. I'm as good as out of Europe in the first knock out round now.

City are a point behind me but I got a game in Hand in the league so maybe I can pull clear a bit. Yet gotta go away to them though :nervous:

Just lost the LC final on penalties to them as well :mad:
 
Ba went to West Ham for ELEVEN mill in the end as I didnt have enough money to meet the TWENTY feckING EIGHT they wanted from me.....how the feck did that work, their were no clauses in the West Ham deal either ...cnuts.

Still, i'm about 5 games into the season now and am doing pretty damn well sitting second place :)
 
Somehow got Scotland to South Africa, lost 1-0 at home in the playoffs to russia before dismantling them in moscow 3-0, only qualified for the play-offs on goal difference too.

Also Fleck on the left wing is well on his way to smashing Dalglish's scoring record with 4 in 5 in comparison to Dalglish 30 in 102, Fleck should be upfront and is just 18.

Only in FM :D
 
I remember when I had won the LC in my first season on another save with United, the news that came was:

United have qualified for EURO Cup (Europa Leauge)
The news will delight fans who can start dreaming of potential future successes. Eh? Europa LeaugE? And I was top of the league and in the UCL at that time :lol:
 
This game hates me. Bloody internationals. My two best players Balotelli and Rooney and also Anderson all injured for 3 weeks. THe first 2 had just returned from injury as well.

I go away to Emirates and then i play Munich at home hoping to overturn a 2 goal deficit. :mad:

EDIT: Balotelli is out for a week actually. Other two are for 3 weeks.
 
This is a joke now. Balotelli's injured himself for the rest of this week. And he breaks Valencia's foot in training. He's out for 4 months now. What on earth is going on? I'm wingerless now for the Munich game and my best striker and attacking midfielder are out as well. Ridiculous.
 
Oh and Rio's just resumed full training so he won't be fit as well. And Lloris is ineligable.

balotelli has a nack of injuring other team mates
he injured kusakckckaksk and macheda on mine in the same week
 
Some of these "injured-in-training" things seem a bit much. I had Wes Brown injure Ferdinand and Evans once. I could almost imagine the team meeting

Wes: Bwahahaha! Now I shall partner Vidic in defence!
Me: Um...you do know that you've been first choice rightback for this season?
 
Looking forward to FM 2010/11 now after this world cup.

The ratings on a whole load of players will be more accurate as will ones knowledge of players outside of the premiership.
 
Argh, it's annoying when you let an amazing regen slip under your radar. I found a Brazilian that has just joined Inter for £15m. He's in the world team of the year at 21, and it's the first i heard of him.

Yet, i spent £65m on Pato when i could have got him.

(Although, Pato is on fire and worth every penny, as well as my net spend only being about £20m altogether after 3 seasons.)

Any tips for finding these regens? My tactic is usually to filter players 16 and under and scout the ones with the highest transfer value.

He's an idiot really. Injured my only availbale winger for the Munich game. He himself is down at some 60% fitness. Sruggling big time for the Munich game.

List of Absentees for whatever reason:

Balotelli (my best player)
Rooney (top scorer and 2nd best player)
Anderson (best central mid)
Brown
Evra
Rio
Valencia
Nani(suspended)
Lloris.

And I'm 2-0 down from the first leg.
 
Kinell, Steve Bruce has really made a mess of United by 2014 in my York game. They've got one defender in the squad, Subotic. Tosic is playing LB and the rest of the defence is shite from the U-18s. Looking forward to the trip to OT
 
What's the longest game any of you have got to ?

I'm currently in 2032 with Shrewsbury Town on FM 08 and just won the Champions League last season for the first time
 
I'd say it takes some serious persistence to keep going that long, I start to lose interest when all the real players are gone and its just regens
 
Yeah. I played till 2022 on FM 07 and I started missing the rooney's and ronaldo's
 
Recently bought this, and have just played my first season with Sunderland. Guided them to 4th in the league. Adriano is immense.

Ra'vel Morrison of all players is guilty of injuring half my squad. Not very good at it though, unless he wants to play centre-back (Ferdinand) or up front (Rooney). :mad:
 
2-0 up away to Sunderland in 10 mins.

2-1 befoe half time with Richardson scoring.

2-2 75th min Jones.

3-2 De Clerk or someone for Sunderland in the 94th min :mad:

Halsey with a pathetic penalty decision! :mad:
 
What a game! 2-0 down from the first leg vs Munich.

Rooney Out, Anderson Out, O"shea out, LLoris not there, Valencia out.

Go 1-0 up with Berba. 3 minutes later Evra scores with his HAND :D . That's what the commentary said atleast.

Extra time and Balotelli (who was very short on fitness) got injured and i had no subs. Luckily Tymoschuk got sent off.

Got on Scholesy and in the 118th minute his first goal of the season, a 30 y arder and I go through 3-2 :D

Take that you germans!
 
I started a game as united, second top scorer in champs league (after 5 games) and none conceded, Owen top scorer of competition with 5 (Rooney been out for 2 months after getting injured for ingurlund :mad:) Rooney is still top league scorer with 5 in 7 where berba has 2 in 11 (lots of assist's mind) and Owen 2 in 9 whereas Kiko has 2 in 6 but doesn't fit my system, unbeaten in 13 having played city, pool, chelsea and arsenal, only game not won out of those was chelsea who scored with 5 to go, mandanda is getting a serious consideration as number 1 as VDS isn't performing.

Go for Lloris. He's class!

Oh and Berba's my top scorer. Rooney HAS to have one big injury eery year :mad:
 
Mandanda is fantastic and cheaper than lloris, hence me getting him, he's actually overtaken lloris as France number one after his great start with me, the fans said I overpaid at first now they rate him as my best signing :cool:

Berba hasn't scored in a loooong time, but he is creating often so I'm standing by him, especially when I start jovetic and Anderson, goals galore when the four of them play.
