starry Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Hi, can i ask why my manager reputation is stuck at 'continental'? I have win alot of titles already, and after doing a brief search online, it seems like i'm not the only one facing this. Any help or explanation is greatly appreciated..

Nomis07 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Deends who you're managing, what titles you have won and how many seasons you have completed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
starry Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 Hmm i'm using Liverpool. And i've won a few league titles and the champions league a few times already. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomis07 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 What do you mean by a few times though? I won 8 straight Bundesliga and a CL with Bayern, but my rep is still continental, in my case I think ti's realistic, but if your record is similar, it isn't realistic.

stuboy Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 My rep is world class and all I've won is Serie B, although I have managed to get Cesena from Serie C/1 to a Uefa Cup spot in 5 seasons. Maybe it has something to do with your past career, mine is set to professional footballer, maybe if you are just a Sunday league player it takes longer?

I have win 3 BPL seasons on the go, 2 champions league win and 2 FA cup wins and 3 league cup wins. If that isn't world class i don't think its realistic already. If you won 8 straight Bundesliga seasons and still on continental status. Thats not reaslistic as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you think you should only take credit from what u have won in your time as a manager? What has it gotta do with your past career? You can always be a terrible player but a legendary manager!

You can always be a terrible player but a legendary manager! You're mistaking reputation for manager status. Roy Keane's reputation would be World Class because he is a well known personality, but his managerial status would be continental at best. I have win 3 BPL seasons on the go, 2 champions league win and 2 FA cup wins and 3 league cup wins. If that isn't world class i don't think its realistic already. If you won 8 straight Bundesliga seasons and still on continental status. Thats not reaslistic as well. What was your starting reputation? I don't think mine is unrealistic, but your may well be, the Bundesliga (in FM terms) is a sub standard league, so reputation wouldn't increase that much with league wins compared to someone who won La Liga 8 times in a row.

Where do you find managerial status, if it is on your profile page then I am world class there as well as rep. in the personal page. I don't think I should be really.

Nomis07 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 It wouldn't be unrealistic if you started out as an unproven manager. Selecting that option means that you are just some fella off the street who walked into the Liverpool job and you are building your rep from scratch, it would take years and many many trphies before you got to World Class status.

SCIAG Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Winning the WC or a continental country cup (the Euros, Copa America, etc) gets you there very quickly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akaz1976 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Mine is still continental despite winning CL twice, World club championship 2 and premier league 4 times. Infact last season i lost only 1 game all season (first of the CL pool games). In the run i won the premier league, FA cup, league cup, world club championship, CL, european super cup, community shield. Still not world class rep. Interestingly all my staff that have come up through the leagues with me are now world class. Akaz PS> I am playing as Hyde United Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcleod_69_69_69 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I might have something to do on where you manage a club. If in your career you win trophies in England, Italy and Spain, you'll be a well known manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mista T Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 no offence, but does it really matter? also if you take a lower premier league club, say fulham, and do what you did with 'pool for them you would probably be world class, but seeing as those trophies are very obtainable with liverpool maybe it's not as much of an achievment?

Akaz PS> I am playing as Hyde United It doesn't make sense, achieving such a result with Hyde United having all your staff promoted to world class reputation and you're stuck at continental. For my case, my staff are all at world class status as well. Let face it, if you win as much as 3 premier league titles on the roll, you're world class no matter which club you're managing.
