uusinjsh Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Toni always becomes manager of Napoli in my game, Dani Alves is the current manager of Brazil, but probably will be fired after first two losses as it always happens. Artur Boruc is Poland manager. In my Benfica team Pablo Aimar is a coach. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex0paul Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Players seem to become managers way too young on there. Eg James Beattie was still 33 and played a fair bit for Stoke the season they released him so he could surely still play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArsenalFan7 Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Same especially when they're your players who have announced their retirement and you get to see their staff attributes first. I once had Robin Van Persie as a player/coach on my old arsenal career and he made a friggin epic coach. Was like 4.5* ball control etc On my current Leverkusen save Vieira and Hyypia have just announced their retirement dates and as they're my players I get first dibs on them... They both look pretty decent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Luke I Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Tim Cahill became manager of Australia on one of my saves. And also Igor Akinfeev became manager of CSKA Moscow. Nothing big but I haven't had many long term saves. And finally on my Tottenham save on FM09 I appointed Tom Huddlestone my assistant manager.

HakanMild Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I'm not loyal to my former players. I am all about winning so I would rather have an unknown coach with better training stars. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dees-Blake Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Didier Drogba became the manager of Ivory Coast and he took them from a spot in the mid 50s to suddenly inside the top 20 within the few years of him being there.

DivineOne Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Most successful ex player in my game is Tomas Rosicky. He've won the CL with Genoa 5 times. He also won 13 titles with Shaktar, Galatasaray, Chelsea & Genoa. The most proud I am of an ex-player of mine. A regen David Rangel, I launched his playing career at age 16, he've become one of the best players in the world. When he retired I hired him as my ass-man, after a year he got offered the Sevilla job. He's already fired, but still. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brambleten Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 When I resigned from England i saw that Emile Heskey was beaten at the final post by Stuart Pierce for the job. other than that, Patrick Vieira has become a very good coach for me (straight after retiring actually) at Man City.

PhroX Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Heh, thought I'd have a check in my game (early 2014). Only gone through the Prem so far, but there's a few interesting managers and other staff around. Damien Duff seems to have become Newcastle manager for some reason (after spending a year or so as a Chelsea youth coach), while Alan Shearer is managing West Ham. Scholes is a coach at Blackburn, Gary Neville is the Crystal Palace AssMan (a legacy of my time as manager there), Fabien Barthez is the West Brom GK coach and Pires has gone back to Arsenal to be a coach.

Bruce Drundrige Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I'm playing as AC Milan in 2019, and Padova went down last season after a miserable season managed by Francesco Totti. Off the top of my head I currently have Adebayor, Vieri, and Diego Milito as scouts. Will check tonight for more ex-players, but yes I very enjoy seeing Ryan Giggs appearing as a youth coach for Celtic, and various other randoms like that...

roganp Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I love seeing players become coaches or scouts.
