Muddymatt Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Has anyone ever won the world cup with a smaller country like Jamaica, Honduras, Wales, NI etc. I think this is probably the hardest thing to do on the game as you can't "sign" players and you only have a limited number of players to choose from Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DivineOne Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 I've won the WC with Ivory Coast once. Not as small as the nations you give but still, quite proud of it. And the first African country ever to win the WC . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HMFC_SCFC Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Maccers lets be honest we are a 'small' nation that punches above its weight but thats what makes us sooo brilliant. For us to be 30th in the world is quite the achievement considering we hav like 1.6million people and look at the state of our local league! All enlgish cant slabber tho Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevicus Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Back on 08, England made it to the final against Germany. I quickly added a manager and took over the England team. Wasn't going to let Germany win that tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryMills Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I hate how if you win the world cup even with a relatively unfancied side like sweden, as soon as next season starts the FA are only satisfied with your performance, even if its only two weeks after the world cup final. IRL if you won the world cup with almost any team other than Brazil you would surely be a national hero, feted for life etc (if it was england). I really hate the ''satisfied'' comment, or the ''still sure they made the right choice in appointing you'' comment (you think!). Would really like to see this changed in fm10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give you an even odder example: In my current save, Ukraine won the European Championship, and right after fired their manager, as "they felt it was time for a change". Say what?
