AcidBurn Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 David Moyes went on to manage Barcelona on my game and as you can see did pretty damn well. Got me wondering if anyone else has seen any British managers move abroad on FM as it's a reasonably rare thing in real life at least in todays footbal anyway with top managers.

Laneo Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Alex McLeish is Barcelona manager on my game. Been there for a good few years now (four or five??) but I've no idea how good he's been as I don't have the Spanish leagues loaded... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Is that Scott Dann the Birmingham defender? If he was born in 1987 then yes. He has won the World Cup with England, FA Cup with Notts Forest and with Spurs he won FA Cup, 3 EPL Titles, one Europa league and 3 Champions League trophies.

CaptainPlanet Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 John Terry managed Real Zaragoza for one year on mine. Looking through the history of several foreign clubs at the moment to see if they had any british managers at some point. A rather laborious task.

cruyff14 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 On previous games I have seen Moyes manage Athletico Madrid (He done really well) Martin O'Neil manage Real Betis, and Napoli Gordon Strachan manage Juventus, Fiorentina, Lazio and Roma Ally McCoist manage Sporting & Porto. And I know there are tons more but my minds gone blank and I'm still seething at Chelsea tonight!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
athos Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Mick McCarthy just became the new Milan manager in my game. He deserves it after winning a league cup with Wolves and FA cup with Liverpool.

AcidBurn Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 Can't believe nobody has noticed.Palacios is the best manager in the world (after the OP) and just ahead of Mourinho. Alex Ferguson is top this is my holiday save. Palacios has won 2 Serie A titles and a Champions League trophy with Napoli. He also guided Atl. Madrid to 7 La Liga titles, 6 Spanish Cups and 4 Champions League wins. Good to see there are so many movements of British managers abroad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
busngabb Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 The anti-English bias there is in the European game isn't properly reflected on FM I don't feel. In reality English players do not travel abroad very often. There have only been a handful of players recently where players were signed by the Italian or Spanish leagues and even then they have returned pretty quickly. On the game they don't seem to mind bidding for English players at all. Lampard, Rodwell and Andy Carroll are all at big European teams on one of my saves. Phil Neville is currently managing AC Milan on one of them as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
