Gaming Football Manager 2014

Doing a bit of tactical experimenting, upped the tempo to very high and playing with WB's now. Full on attack almost now!
 
As soon as I win my 10th title next year I'll be open to offers. If the right offer came now I'd think hard about it. I think I've taken IFK Göteborg as far as I can. That isn't entirely true, I could build them into something better but its possibly a 10-20 year job due to the league and the money, rep too.

A lot of it it out of my control, its a pretty bug flaw in the game IMO. Prize money should be dynamic, or more than it is already.

Not sure whether I want a 'big' job or not. Maybe something in a lower league of a decent country.

Hmmm, Wolves just enquired about one of my CB's. Valued at 1m, I could talk it up, and I sure could do with the money as I'm *just* scraping FFP.

Probably the best pure defensive stats of my crew, but there are better ca's, better potentials, and I could probably promote a youth to 4th/5th/6th choice.... I don't like to weaken my team too much though, especially when stepping into a stronger league. Home-Grown English too.

Begins off at Southampton, this would be his fourth season with me. Currently 3* ca.

United are just too good in this, if only it was the case in real life. Fellaini's awesome.
 
I've been offered the job at Fiorentina. Unbelievably tempted to go and make them work dominant. I guess I could always come back one day.
 
So..err.. Bernardi is at 0 in value, and it's impossible to register him for my PL-squad as he doesnt show up as I try to submit my squad for the season. Considering he's one out of two strikers in my squad, it's kind of a big deal. Anyone else experienced this before?
 
It's this skin, http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/388603-Siam-14-(WIP) but, it's a version I modded, because I wanted a bigger, clearer Attribute Analysis tab, and darker backgrounds to make it a tad easier to read.

Here's my version. http://www.mediafire.com/download/wsfgkfsbd1d46of/siam14.rar
Thanks so much for that, man. That's brilliant.

I tried different setting, firstly it fits much better in Windowed mode than other skins I downloaded. With 95% font size, it almost worked perfectly but a few panels have a problem. Like the jersey on the bottom-left of the profile page won't show and the "highlight key attributes" button would overlap with the bottom attribute. It's obviously fine with 75% but that's a bit too small.

Works excellently on fullscreen so I guess I'll play on that or maybe 95% if most of the things seem to be fine.

Apart from that the skin is really beautiful. I love dark ones so it's perfect for me. Thanks again!
 
And that's the fourth season in a row where I've been knocked out of the first game of the League Cup.. Always away against a PL-opposition as well.

Fiorntina aren't bad, like Italy.
I consistently get low-balled with my players.

"Oh, he's worth 4.5mn euro? I'll continue to offer 2mn"
OM are the very worst for it, for some reason.

Heard of this happening before, are you using a custom database? Or did you just buy out the Sassuolo half of his contract?

Getting a good skin for Windowed, or a laptop is dang near impossible!

I'm using a custom database, so that's probably why. I did wonder why I was able to buy him from Juve for 0,- :lol: Flogging him for £20m to Real as we speak, hopefully they wont be able to play him either as he's a god damn beast of a player.

I ended up selling him back to Juve, less then half a year after I got him. A tidy £20m profit :D
 
Insane start to the season in the German 3rd division:

The quality is poor, and nobody has really strengthened. A few young loanees from top clubs and it's pretty easy to dominate. Playing ridiculous high tempo all-out-attack football against shit defences. Serge Gnabry on loan is taking the piss.
 
Into the FA and European cup final, still yet to win the league however. United and Chelsea are both machines, both heading for 100+ points with me comfortably in third, heading for 80-odd points(dropped a good few points recently due to resting players in the League for the European cup).

Playing United in the European cup final, they've won the last 3 in a row...

Sadly it wasn't... :lol:

One of my mediocre youth team wing backs, strangely enough is in the middle of a bidding war, Norwich have 1.7m in, now I'm discussing a deal with Watford.
 
Gee, what is your tactic?

A pretty standard 4-1-2-2-1, with with left winger pushed in-field behind the striker, giving the left back free reign of that flank, and a very defensive right back on the other side.

Very direct, risky passes, high pressing. I'm not bossing possession, but I'm having loads of shots on target, and restricting the opposition to long range efforts.

My best players are my loanees. Serge Gnabry from Arsenal, Mitchell Weiser from Bayern and Leo Capezzi from Fiorentina especially.

They'll stretch to 1.2m........ All kinds of go feck yourselves.

I rejected their enquiry, when they were at 1.2m, came back days later with a straight bid, 800k. Rejected, days later, 950k. Rejected, days later, 1m. Rejected, days later 1.2m, we're back where we started. :lol:

Funnily enough, Wolves are listed as rich. Cheap bastards.
 
Vauxhall are now in the Skrill Premier thanks to a 3-2 ET win in the Play-off Final. Get in. Board have announced that we are building a new stadium that should be finished in June 2015 (end of my 2nd season).

Odd things happening in the world? Everton came 2nd. Villa came 5th. United 8th - Moyes sacked. Atletico are 12 points ahead in La Liga with only a game to go too. :eek:
 
Liverpool just put a 4.2m bid in for on of my youth team players. Think he's actually going to be great, I think I could talk a couple of mil more. IRL this would of course be a "bite their hand off" moment. He's made no indication that he wants to leave though.

Everton always finish the first season high, even winning it sometimes. United? Pretty dang accurate. Sigh......
 
So two of these Brazilians got a release clause at £2m, yet the club keeps refusing my offer!? I've even bid £10m for one of them, and they keep refusing my offer! How is this possible!? :(
 
I have some incredible youth players at Madrid. A few I brought with me from Wolfsburg plus a few I poached from other clubs now I'm all billy big bollocks. Will post some screenshots at some point.
 
:lol: Remember how I said I agreed to sell Berardi right? Well, he's due to leave for Juve in a few months though that didnt matter obviously as he's currently starting for Juve against me in the CL. My mind is completely fecked :lol:

What's the name of the database you're using, I think I know the one, but can't remember the name.

Utterly fecked the co-ownership clauses. Made by a scouse, and we know, they know feck all about transferring good players. :D
 
Every single year Malmo fail to get into the group stage, this annoys me greatly. As a result Sweden has now lost its 1 and only automatic group stage place and have to qualify again now :mad:

Also I think I've decided to stay in Göteborg, for now..

:lol:

Managed to lose the FA cup and European cup final to Liverpool and United respectively, meaning United have won 4 in a row now.

3rd in the league behind United and Chelsea, who are both ridiculous(97 and 94 points respectively). Top scorers in the league, but conceded 50 so that needs to be addressed.

Just had a look at Balanta, as this is a rare save that I don't get him in the first season.

Sad stuff. Moved to Schalke in 15/16, was ravaged by injuries, never got close to his potential, and now plies his trade as a relatively average CB for Liverpool.

Also, Liverpool are still chasing my kid, up to 5m now, getting tempting.......

I think it's called something along the lines of BarneyLFC Transfer Update.. It's working just fine, exept this single player :lol: I wonder if I can buy him back for 0, then sell him the next window :D
