GioGio85 Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 In previous games of FM07 and 08 I have taken the step of taking the Ivory Coast managers job. Ivory Coast as im suure you are all aware have a variety if PREM stars....and therefore the potential to win the Africans Nations and maybe even challenge in the World Cup. BUT....this all went horribly wrong when I discovered there was not 1 goalkeeper in the Ivory Coast...this meant that no matter how many goals I scored, there was no way I could ever get a win as goals would fly in from anywhere past my defender in goal...disaster!Had to resign 2 games in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom14 Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Did you load all players from Ivory Coast at the start of the game? If not it was a schoolboy error. I've manged Ivory Coast before with all leagues in Europe loaded and always had more than enough players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomHAVFC Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Whenever I've played as Ivory Coast (which is quite a bit) I always have loads of Goalkeepers to choose from. Sounds like a bug to me. But knowing me, I'm probably wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GioGio85 Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 I didnt load any players from a specific nation, i just maximum database and about 9 full leagues running. I didnt know I was going to be Ivory Coast Manager at the start at the game....is there no way you can load EVERY player on the database? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sifrow Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Many African countries suffer from this, Ghana for example. It's been like this for a few versions now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have really good outfield players but theres no chance of any success without a decent goalkeeper, let alone a dodgy one! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rancer890 Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 I've managed both Ivory Coast and Nigeria. One thing I know, we do have goalies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Many African countries suffer from this, Ghana for example. It's been like this for a few versions now. Perhaps its a licensing issue like how you cant have the proper players in the German squad (unless you know how to fix it;)) I've also noticed that if you scout the African nations the scouts never find any players which also leads me to believe its a licensing problem. Before anyone asks I am using the 8.0.2 patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
