How Are You Doing On CM?

[Simon]

ive just started a new game in Brazil playing as Corinthians. its murder there. First season i had to play 75 matches, it could have been up to 10 or 12 more! its on CM 01/02 still, but theres just far too many fixtures!

Started a Milan game a week or so ago, currently into my 3rd season..

Season 1 was quite disastrous, RU in Serie A, Italian Cup, Semi of the CL and Won the Italian Super Cup..

Season 2 was a much better effort. Won the Serie A, Italian Cup and the CL (defeating Arsenal 5-3 in the final)..

Season 3 started well winning the Super Cup again and also winning the Euro Super Cup.. I have also made a good start to the CL beating Lyon and Liverpool and am in the lead in the Serie A...

My squad is as follows..

GK
Dida
Abbatti

Defenders
Kakladze
Cafu
Pancaro
Stam
Nesta
Naldo
Kompany

Mid's
De Rossi
Ambrossini

Ben Arfa
Fredheim Holm
Seedorf
Totti

Fwds
Shevcheko
Inzaghi

Fredheim Holm

Respect.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Respect.

Was a failure at St. James'...

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Was a failure at St. James'...

Must have been the kit. Reminded him of Tromsø, I'm sure...

 

[Blewy]

He is a gun, he is really pushing Kaka and Ronaldinho for the AM spot and along with Ben Arfa are the future of the side...

I sent him out on loan in the 1st season when i got him and he has come back 10 times a better player...

Wheres Cole lol. the chairman changed his mind?

Disaster.

After another 4-0 drubbing of Rangers (They've only conceded 23 goals in 28 games, and 8 of those came in 2 of ours!) we've dragged ourselves back into a shout for the title.

Then win 5-0 at 3rd place Dunfermline whilst Rangers lose so I'm a point ahead of them.

2-0 up 30 minutes into the next game, and we have a power cut

Fortunately it was saved before the 5-0 game, but it's not going to happen again is it.

Looking at another SI related forum, one guy posted up a screen shot with his Aston Villa team in 05/06 (this is FM 2005) and he had Carles Puyol and Steven Gerrard in it.

If he did not cheat (ie tweaked the transfer budget in the editor) or went 'new user' then Steds is a Yorkshireman.

I just beat Liverpool in the Premiership. It was a sellout. Over 70,000 present.Club record. I'm looking to sign a young striker from Tottenham who looks good. Rooney unfortunately went down for 3 weeks and Fletcher's out for a few months, just when he was starting to click. I'm facing Liverpool next again in the League Cup.

Well it's January 1st, 2011 and the awards came out. Samba won World Footballer of The Year and Rooney won World Player Of The Year. Also, Glen Johnson won European Defender Of The Year and Phillip Gilder won European Midfielder Of The Year. That's so cool man.

Wheres Cole lol. the chairman changed his mind?

The deal fell through because of the transfer deadline...

 

[roseboy64]

Doesn't that just suck.

 

[marc71178]

2 points ahead of Rangers - 2 games left, but the first one is away at their place

Have blown the last 2 games, taking the lead only to be pegged back by late equalisers, both times opposition keeper motm. 2 wins and I'd now be champions!

 

[Craig]

That would be a first if Gretna win the SPL?

 

[marc71178]

Sure would - IRL they've only been formed a few years, and although I expect they will IRL move straight through the divisions, they won't win the league in their first season up (although I don't think I will!)

 

[marc71178]

Thanks to an 89th minute equalisers from "Super" Rob Earnshaw, we got the point at Rangers with a 2-2 that left us a win from the league, which we duly got.

Now £8m in debt because of the stadium works so can't afford any new players this summer for a CL challenge.

 

[ash chaulk]

i hate this thread i wanna buy cm 05 but i know ill get to addicted grrrr

 

[marc71178]

NO!!!!

Buy FM 2005.

 

[Craig]

Or wait five months and buy FM 2006.

But FM 2005 is just as good. I'm thinking about it at work, so it means I'm addicated.
