o JaY Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Did Manchester Utd overachieve seeing as the year is 2016 and they could've fallen a bit since 2011? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosmo Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I have won 6 trophy in a year as Atletico Madrid manager and i wasn't not even in the top 3 managers!?! No top 3 for me in 3 years although my team had won many trophy... Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSH Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Another bug... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BungleFish Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 yeah i won the Championship as Watford, got to the final of both cups (more by luck than judgement i think) and still only came third in the MOTY awards, the peterborough manager came first with LOADS more points than me even though they only got promoted through the playoffs, so i dont get these awards at all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dane0 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Won the Europa League, the Dutch title (unbeaten, 2 draws and 11 points clear of 2nd place) and the Dutch Cup with PSV. Martin Jol who had taken Ajax to 3rd and gone out in the group stages of the Champions League won manager of the year. Guess the people voting for the award just like Ajax better?

dafuge Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 How did you both do against your media predictions? Perhaps you were tipped to win, and did, but Man Utd were tipped to finish lower down. I don't think these things are just down to winning things, I think they are about going beyond what was expected (like Hodgson last season). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FM_Spurs Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 i dont think it is a bug at all, Chelsea done the double last season yet Harry Redknapp was the Premier League's manager of the season and Roy Hodgson was the managers manager of the year. this is also happened to me, i won La Liga for the 2nd season in a row yet i only got 2nd in the 2nd season.

cosmo Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Winning 6 trophie and not getting in the first 3 coach of the year...nahh...i think is a bug... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koennn Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Last season I won the Treble with Ajax and wasn't even in the top 3 Dutch Managers of the Year. Believe that's kinda strange too. I agree with Dafuge that it's not the manager who won most things that should get the award but I thought winning the Champions League with Ajax would clearly earn me the trophy since I did better than the season before last one and I did win the Manager of the Year award back then.

Wendsill Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I don't know whether it is a bug, but in my opinion how you can get along with your fellow managers also plays part in this. I think that if you're not popular and tend to slag off your fellow managers in press conferences your chances of winnning this competition will be dramatically reduced.

dafuge Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Winning 6 trophie and not getting in the first 3 coach of the year...nahh...i think is a bug... That one certainly doesn't sound right. Just out of interest, by winning everything possible I'm assuming your squad was miles better than the others. Was it that good or were some of the wins a surprise? Could it be the game just seeing your season as 'doing what was expected'? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmo Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 @ dafuge 50-50 % i would say. Barca was favourite to win La Liga and Champions League with me on the second place(at par with Real Madrid)...but not even in the top 3, i think this is not right...

Was it that good or were some of the wins a surprise? Could it be the game just seeing your season as 'doing what was expected'? So what about the Atlético Madrid example? edit: just saw your answer.

Was it that good or were some of the wins a surprise? Could it be the game just seeing your season as 'doing what was expected'? The awards do not take into consideration what you refer as "doing what was expected" . And even if they did, it would still take an amazing manager to do a 6 trophy year, even with the best players in the world. He should be at least in the first 3, if not first! It's common sense.

Perhaps it is worth mentioning it in the bugs forum, at the very least we might learn the criteria to win this. I wonder whether it is something to do with relationships with the other managers. This probably won't help, but Barcelona won the league and the Champions League. I finished 2nd and won the Copa del Rey Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I'm not trying to justify it, I'm trying to find a reason for it. He should clearly be first in my opinion. What are the criteria for this award, do you know?

DeadZone Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Opposite for me I got the award by a landslide (nearly 400 points more than 2nd place) Yet all I did was win the Carling cup and finish 5th as Everton, also got knocked out in 5th round of FA Cup Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cplpeters1900 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I got it by miles, even though I got knocked out of league cup in 2nd round, fa cup in 4th round and finished 9th in Premiership, even though Media Prediction was 20th, maybe why...?
