Football Manager 2007 [PC]

[Yossi]

Cancelled my pre-order which still hadn't been sent and bought it on the way home. It is installing now.....:w00t

Although CD-WOW are to dispatch it on MONDAY which does not amuse me in the slightest, it is not worth cancelling it because of the gap in the price. Silly really.

Just started a game with Rangers. Signed Scott Brown and have played 4 games. Losing to Inverness away (who also beat Celtic at away) and drawing with Motherwell, which I was probably fortunate as I had Kris Boyd and Charlie Adam sent off.

I've barely played so far although it was a very hard decision not to manage Boavista or Red Star Belgrade. I've got a game where I am two managers - one at Milan and another starting unemployed with another. I get bogged down as three players (Milan, Boavista and Red Star) sometimes because a season takes forever to complete. However, having played in Portugal in the demo, I'm aware of a couple of teenagers available on free transfers who were the stars of my Boavista youth team and am signing them for Milan. Kaka will be on his way to Chelsea again but I'm going to try and get £40m out of them and then sign David Suazo, Luis Jimenez, Okaka, Massimo Oddo and Marcelo.

EDIT: I got £60m for Kaka :w00t

So Chelsea ARE as stupid in FM07 as they are in real life.

 

[Sweey]

Yes, thank God

I asked for £75m at first - they offered £64.2m and Berlusconi accepted over my head but at the time of purchase, they couldn't afford it.

Can anyone help me with my formation...i have the same players as in real life.

 

[Sweey]

Three at the back is risky to me, why not try a 4-1-2-1-2?

Actually, you couldn't fit Duff into that so....why not try a 4-1-4-1?

RB------CB---CB------LB
-----------DM-----------
--------CM---CM--------
AMR-----------------AML
-----------CF-----------

 

[Dr. Bob Kelso]

Anyone up for an online game?

Yeah, but that would cut out Ameobi or Martins and they have been my best 2 players on rating.

 

[Sweey]

How about good old 4-4-2? :tongue:

 

[GuyP]

Maybe, but that sounds to simple damnit :tongue:

 

[Eric Clyde]

Champions League matches started. Group E is Chelsea, Werder Bremen, Levski Sofia and Barcelona. Coincidence? :erm:

1 point clear of Celtic at the top and just about to play my UEFA cup tie against Gent.

Switch Emre and N'Zogbia?

 

[GuyP]

Emre has been sprectacular, but i suppose i may try it, thanks Yoss.

 

[Sweey]

Chelsea are in my CL group. Bloody Shevchenko :huh:

 

[Eric Clyde]

Played my first Old Firm match. drew 1-1. Just slipped to 2nd in my last match after losing 1-0 to Dundee United. Brahim Hemdani gave the ball away at the edge of the box when he had no pressure and lost the game from that goal. Motherwell are 1st after beating Celtic 2-0. I have quite a few injuries and already have 3 red cards. Libor Sionko got a straight red for a push and got a 2 match ban. :angry:

 

[Sweey]

I just won 5-1 "away" to Inter :w00t

I'm top with 12 wins from 12 and therefore 28 points, Palermo (who I beat 1-0 at home already) are a point behind me, Inter are third with 24 and Roma fourth. Palermo have conceded just four goals and I've only let in five.

Chelsea at home in the CL next....only won one of my four CL games so far, a 3-0 home win over AEK Athens while I've drawn 1-1 at Chelsea and AEK and by the same score at home to Benfica.
