Football Manager 2006

[Sweey]

My Napoli side (if I can remember who half of them are):

GK: Iezzo
RB: some German guy I signed from Stuttgart's reserves or something similar
CB: Maldonado
CB: Dicara
LB: Cupi
DM: Some Algerian guy I signed from some random place.
MC: Poggi
MC: Fontana/Montesanto
MC: Grieco
FC: Inacio Piá
FC: Sosa

What a team! So good we've dominated every single match but conversion of chances is an issue and I've already lost at Perugia and drawn 0-0 both home and away against lesser opposition. Still, I thumped Massese 5-2 away when they'd won all six of their opening matches. Next I have Lucchese who have won all seven of their opening matches. It just gets better! :mellow:

 

[Phatmann]

If that is Demouge off Genk or something, then I hate him :angry:. Him and Bob Peters always score against me, they are my bogey players.

I have always found that Man Utd are fairly liberal with their players to loan out, I have had Vidic for 2 years running.

In the Belgian league they have this bizarre award the Player of the week. One of my players won every single week (different players) with some winning 15 weeks running. When I won the league I still had cup matches to go so I dropped all my first teamers. But players I dropped kept on winning the award despite not playing :laugh: . Then after the season when the playoffs were going on with the promoted and reagated teams I still kept winning the award.

I don't know if he's from genk, I got him as a free at the beginning of the game. Has been a great player for me so far

'MON THE AJAX!

 

[Sweey]

Kerzhakov is superb! I'll always remember what a hero he was for my Zenit side when we won the European Cup in my second season. Him and the long-departed Sergey Vasyanovich. Those were the days...

 

[Sagdiyev]

Is it worth getting FM06 now or is a new one coming out soon?

 

[Rangers_Fureva]

Is it worth getting FM06 now or is a new one coming out soon?

Don't think the new one comes out until November, there abouts.

 

[Sweey]

The right-back in my Napoli team is Stallbaum, my defensive midfielder Ait-Alia

 

[Diao]

Sweey you signed Albertini guy? the testimonal match guy

I beat Chelsea 4 - 1 at Anfield in my game

Couldn't believe it

 

[Sweey]

Albertini? He'll be retired in my game :tongue:

 

[Diao]

O lol, I've just tryed to sign him lol

 

[Sweey]

My team have dominated every game but because they don't finish many of their chances, we're eighth in the division. I've had over 15 shots in every game, yet in two matches I haven't scored and in at least two others I've scored only once, resulting in a 2-1 defeat and a 1-1 draw. One of my players has lost confidence in my ability :huh: (after eight league games which I've won four of).

 

[Diao]

Going well mate

I'm going to continue my Napoli game tommorow, as my Laptop refuses to read any discs at the moment :no:

 

[The Dude]

I got fired 14 games into the season....can i get a new job or do i have to start over?

 

[Sweey]

You can get a new job - you can start unemployed and get a job - but only with a poor quality team. Like Lisma, from the Russian second division :huh:

 

[hola name]

Here is my team in a simple 4-4-2:

Ustari

Alvarez
Ivan
German Re
Deschacht

Caneo
Diaz
Pardo
Vanden Borre

Campos
Park Joo Young



Ustari - All his goalkeeping skills are 20 except for the negative ones like Tendency and Eccentricity which are two or three. Respons is also 16. He has not improved since joining me he was that good from the start.

Alvarez and Ivan - Two highly consistent and attacking full backs.

Campos - Scarily good and only 17 :shocking: :shocking:

Park Joo Young - Does not quite score enough, but will replace Sibon in time who bangs the goals in for fun.



Transfers coming in:

Leandro Rogmanoli - Cost 1.5 million and I thought he would join the same time as Caneo. Unfortunatley Caneo has evolved into a monster player and is now better than Roggers. Also despite buying him in the first summer window he didn't arrive for exactly a year later. Bit too late, what a waste of money/space/my air.


Lucas Biglia - 1.5 million and I don't know what to do with him. Replace Diaz??? Might rotate them for a season, and then pass judgement on them.



Decent youngsters:

Ivan Petkovic - Very very good and can play DLRC so will get a place in my squad. Unfortunatley is in direct rivalry with....

Umara Bangura - Same defensive stats as Petkovic and also plays DLRC but he is as fast as lightning. He is going to be awesome, but he needs to improve his full back skills (Dribbiling, Passing, Crossing).

Strunch and Iverson - In direct competition with each other, same stats but Iverson is currently winning due to his scoring ability.

Kerzhakov is superb! I'll always remember what a hero he was for my Zenit side when we won the European Cup in my second season. Him and the long-departed Sergey Vasyanovich. Those were the days...

Yeah, I had to spend a fair chunk of my transfer budget on him, but he's worth it. 28 goals in 30 games last season! :w00t

Just beat Juventus 2-0 at home in the Champions League and drawn with PSV after a last-gasp equaliser from Hernan Peirone. He's finding it difficult to settle in the area apparently, anyone get any hints as to make him settle in a bit better?

 

[Sweey]

I've found its a glitch in the game whereby if you sign a foreign player in the summer, by September they're unhappy because its updated the season properly and seems to think he's spent ages there. In my experience, nine out of ten players will be happy in about three months time.

 

[nath_scfc]

Ah right, that explains that. I'll just sit tight and wait then, cheers.
