Who did you take to World Cup Glory?


Recommended Posts

I landed Cameroon job few months before World Cup 2014 in Brazil.

Was in same group as Germany, Switzerland and Iran

Got of to a slow start

1-1 vs Switzerland

1-1 vs Iran

Had to win my last game to qualify

Beat the Germans 1-0 after being awarded a penalty in 84th min!

Beat Chile in 2nd round 2-0

Then beat Croatia in Quarters 1-0

In Semis I had to face Spain, got rewarded a penalty in 78th minute only to have it missed.

Beat Spain finally on penalties 4-2

In final I had to face Portugal. I defeated them 1-0.

The win got my into Hall of Fame in Africa :)

Eto got his 100th Cap.

I decided to leave Cameroon after winning the biggest trophy.

A lot of nations sacked their coaches and I applied for England,, Italy, Spain and Serbia in order to lead them in Euro Championship but they all declined.

Strange due to the fact that I just won World Cup with an African Nation..

No one as of yet, i've not even managed one National Team on FM10 yet.

I've had offers from a few, including Ghana who have approached me 3 times on the same save! (2013,2015 and 2018)

I'm not really intrested in taking over a National team, i'm more concerned about trying to win the Premier League with Bournemouth.

But if England or Brazil offer me the job then i think i will take it. :D (And maybe Spain too)

I took Scotland to the WC Final in 2014. Didn't qualify for 2010 or the Euro's of 2012 but managed to qualify for 2014. At the actual tournament, I rode my luck big time. Can't remember the order of the teams I played but I know Brazil, Germany, Italy all fell to me in the knockout stages. I lost 2-0 to Croatia in the final /o\. Haven't won the World Cup since FM06.

I went on to manage West Brom and am now France manager at the same time.
