GandalfGreyhelm Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Okay, third season in. Three successful seasons with HSV, won the Bundesliga twice, won DFB-Pokal once, and runner up. And got to the semi in the Champions League. My reputation is at World Class; Joachim Low steps down as Germany's manager. Now here is the problem... I'm always overlooked! Every single time. No matter what I win, no matter what my reputation, I've never managed to be Germany's manager. And I've been playing the FM series for a long time now. In 2009 I had managed FC Bayern, AC Milan and Barcelona, winning all the major cups with them but still no success. After The Netherlands failed to qualify for Euro 2012, I did however get a Job offer from them. I can even apply to manage Japan and get a job offer. So I doubt it's anything to do with the licensing issues. My question is, has anyone ever managed Germany by applying for the job? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Maybe they just dont want someone from England as manager. Germany and England do have quite a history afterall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Shanahan Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I think that you can't get the job for the same reason why the players are greyed out, license issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaSmith Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Are you German (ingame)? or Dutch or English? as this would make a massive difference Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCIAG Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 See if you can add a manager to the German side- I'm fairly sure you can. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heathxxx Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Just out of curiosity in my current save, I went to the "Add New Manager" option, to see if I could add a new manager to Germany. Interestingly, neither Germany or Japan were available for selection. Perhaps is isn't possible to manage either of those sides, due to the well documented licensing issues for both countries. I do believe that there are certain ways around these "restrictions" though, with an edited database or files you can use with a new save. Obviously I'm not going to mention where you can get these here and I won't respond to PM requests for them either. But seek and ye shall find.

GandalfGreyhelm Posted January 28, 2011 Author Share Posted January 28, 2011 Germany is there in add a manager. Germany was there when I started a new game. Since I know all too well about certain "restrictions." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jibby123 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Hmm, I'd also be interested to know. I'm a German managing in Germany on my save and though not yet high enough rep (that will come, trust me ) to take the national job, one day I want to.
