Cubelar Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 why does the press ask me about complacency in a CHAMPIONS LEAGUE semi-final? really getting tired of it, why would any team be complacent against Lyon in a champions league semi-final?

fuzzrab Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 I dont actually do press conferences as i find them repetitive and just let the Ass man do them. In answer to your question though. If you are a big team, E.G Barca, then the press might think that because you are expected to beat Lyon comfortably that the players might get a bit complacent and think they can just win the game by turning up.

Guest Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 I hate it when you are a non league club and get past the 4th round qualifing of the FA cup or whatever and the reporter asks you "you have done well to get this far, what are your chances of going all the way and winning it.". Er, about 2 million to 1. But saying that would probably upset the my players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSteel Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Press conferences are a complete waste of time - the same multi-choice questions everytime. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertcornell68 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 What the question actually means is, "would you rather your players were complacent or nervous?" Press conferences just plain suck. I'd rather let my ass man mess it up and fix the damage later than waste thirty seconds storming out after one question.

trekman Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 As long as he has good stats then I would let your assistant do the press conferences. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edle Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Press conferences are indeeed one of the strangest areas of the game. Need to be redone or removed in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same reason that United would be complacent against their 'massive rivals' in the FAC3? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
llama3 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 i know we all complain about repetitive press conferences - but real life conferences in general are the same, they are repetitive, wenger is always asked about injuries, if he is going to sign anyone, cesc fabregas' good form etc - its no different really!

Yes but Arsenal's entire squad wouldn't go in a huff after Arsene gives a couple of positive answers to said questions. We know that press conferences are also repetitive IRL, but in FM they are the biggest load of old rubbish, and the effect they can have on your players makes no sense whatsoever.

atonement Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 has there been a board poll done of how many people actually want press conferences in the game? i cant believe SI are sticking with them, such a dud idea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I have started doing the pre match so I can build up friendshiips with other managers and leaving the post match to the assistant. Cuts down on 50% of the boredom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deaksydeak Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 i love how realistic press conferences are. Im sure when arsene wenger gets asked questions, the journalist gives him the same 4 multiple-choice answers, none of which would be wengers choice, and when he does respond, the journalist complains that wenger is oo undecided on the matter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
