How about you? Lets say you get to 2010 In-Game. Does that mean you now no longer buy anyone, and just wait in the game until Real Life catches up?

R-dizzle Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Do you mean you only buy the players that we buy in real life.. the ones that the updates include? If not then when I play as Man Utd (Also th team I support in real life) I tend to do the same thing, my style of football is similar to what they play now with a holding midfielder and great attacking options so I try to keep that theme going.

I know what you mean but i like to manage as realistically as possible. By buying the players man utd buy in real life it feels more realistic. Do you understand what i mean?

Fire Island Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I try to play as if I am managing in reality and try and get the best players that I can. I try to play a passing attacking game, (not always easy when managing in the lower leagues!) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter-evo Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 If Birmingham buy a player in real life, I will try and grab him in the game. I won't just limit myself to these players as injuries and sales can lead to me needing to buy players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR866Gunner Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 But you said before that you only like to buy players that Man Utd buy irl :confused: think he means that IRL man utd arent necessarily after the like of robinho or messi so he wouldnt attempt to sign them however when he does get players he tends to stick with players who would more likly join utd. Im stubborn like wenger on FM so no changes there compared to RL!! lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
