Inter_Menan Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Looking at the current state of football do you think FM09 will imitate life and have the owners of the club telling you who to buy. annoying but now a fact of life and after all FM is realistic. let me know what you think Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samsung Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Yeah I think it would add realism to the game. I think they would have to give a reason why they want him... Could be stupid reason but reasonable like I want him because he is my favourite player or somethng... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergio920 Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 If this is so, however realistic as it may be, it takes the 'manager' part out of the game if all these interesting decision are taken away from you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeoVieira Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 They should have a say on how you're going to spend your money. For example: "I'll give you this much to spend on a right-back" or "I'll give you this much to spend on a star player". Instead of just giving you 100mil pounds to spend on w/e you want.

TheOriginalJez Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 It happens a lil... I've had players sold and players signed before - although it was in FM07 iirc, they wanted a big name, i didn't want anyone so at the end of the january window when I hadn't signed anyone they wasted 30m on a player who wouldn't even make my team. I got ****ed and released him on a free lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pope of Pot, King of Nothi Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I think by adding stuff like this you're detracting from the hands-on approach from the game. It's similar to going on holiday mode, but in the transfer window. Maybe it could be worked in, in the future where you request a director of football to handle acquisitions according to your profiles 'favourite tactic' and which players the assistant manager doesn't rate so highly... I personally wouldn't want this feature, but I could see how some people would be more interested in focusing on tactics than having to scour the world for the perfect player (or opening a web browser and pointing it to player guide ). Anyway, we don't really want this game turning into ah... searching for a cogent paradigm... a flight simulator where your only option is to take off and then hit auto-pilot! You have to draw a line somewhere because at the end of the day it's about enjoying the game. If you get too serious, or technical, you're in danger of turning the game into Econometric Analysis 20xx. Besides, as it stands, my friend will always say to me: So, how's Excel Spreadsheet Manager 2008? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DietSpam Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 If they did this, they may as well call it Joe Kinnear 2009. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
