mattshez Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 England - In the older versions i began to hate Engand because of the 5 sub rules (hindered my development of players because i wouldnt put them on the bench in most games, plus palyers would get unhappy without games where i couldnt bench them) It would get to the point where i would look to move abroad for a seven man bench luckily that wont be a problem this year Spain - Always ended up here after managing man utd, but the 25 man squad - foreign player rules always annoyed me there italy - appart from only having players in a team over 30, the signing 1 NON-EU Player a season stopped me nabbing all those skillfull south americans :o Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattioson Blue Boy Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 England I love managing in as I know of basically all the players and teams - I'm very sad lol. Don't mind managing in Italy and Spain and Occasionaly France, that's about it for me, do some times experiment in others. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

glamdring Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 As for the original question, I like managing in Scotland, Norway, Iceland, Germany and The Championship in England. I've also dabbled in Mexico a couple of times and enjoyed it. I am enjoying managing Fiorentina, but only because I like Fiorentina - I find Serie A too hard though Dunno about leagues I hate though really - if I'm not enjoying managing somewhere I don't stay there long enough to develop feelings of hatred!

Colorado Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Brazilian league is my favourite. So many challenges and different competitions and it can be great at lower level developing players who end up moving to Europe. You can play a long career games without ever feeling tempted to move abroad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANDEHLSON Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I hate managing MLS due to bad translation in the pt version... the rules appear wrong in portuguese... not that it matters since the rules (at least in FM07) worked very deficiently (by other words.. worked kinda wrong )... I like managing English lower leagues and Faroese Islands (despite the fact that in the middle of the cup, some Brunei clubs decide to show up... -.-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rekluse Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 whats the transfer system about in the MLS what rules are there? There are many league rules, listed somewhere on the forum here. People that just jump in without knowing them have a lot of trouble with it, personally I enjoy it, one of the more unique leagues to play in and outside of England, Spain, Italy, I enjoy playing in the MLS or Brazilian lower leagues the most.

rekluse Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Yes. Don't you think it would be more enjoyable if the MLS had a more european transfer system instead of the draft that they use? The draft is in addition to the transfers. The draft is mostly, are exceptions, in place for teams to select players coming out of college. I greatly enjoy it, adds some choices in selecting players rather than them just randomly appearing like academy players and your stuck with them or have to sign from elsewhere. I greatly enjoy the transfer/draft system for the MLS, but with a lack of relegation it makes it impossible for me to play over a few seasons...

Luca Barnesi Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 England is my fave cos i know all bout the teams and playrs etc. I really enjoy managing in lges 2 to the championship as they r the leagues where 'true' football is demonstated. Obviously i like 2 try and reach the prem where the standard is the highest, but i just dont feel right starting a game there. Managing in the other top lges in europe is also quite fun, but managing outside europe isnt such a g8 experience with leagues havin rather unfamiliar and strange rules etc:( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
