Stemlfc65 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 When playing your real life supporting club (in my case Liverpool) are you sometimes reluctant to let players go? I seem to hit a stumbling block in letting some of my stars go even though there are better options for me. I wish I didn't feel this way because it would make me a better player at this game as I am now. I normally don't change a system for a player but I always seem able to when playing Crouch and Torres upfront. (They score bad fulls if you get it right) I prefer to play the 4-1-4-1 as Liverpool seem to play in real life but lately Crouch is on fire. Any one else feel its difficult to let your players leave or change things around a bit? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopper99 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 In a way yes. I'm currently playing as the team I support, Sunderland. On the game Jones isn't all that great but in real life he's one of the most exciting players we've had at Sunderland in a while and looks like he has bags of potential. Because of that I wont sell him on FM, even though he's playing a bit carp and there are blatently better strikers out there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
postal postie Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 i dont. xabi alonso had to go to real madrid at 28 years old for 20million pounds. taking into consideration i had a 21 year old javi martinez and a 21 year old michael johnson (man city) and i wanted to play them i thought the price was worth it.

glamdring Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Well I'm a Derby County fan and, even though I haven't managed Derby this time round, I can say without hesitation that I would have no problem whatsoever with getting rid of the entire squad apart from Giles Barnes, but that is because he is good anyway so it would hardly be sentiment!

Neji Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Sometimes, yes. I'm currently playing as Sheff Wed, the team I support. Im in the Prem now and Tudgays contract is about to run out, he's currently paid 11k a week but wants 34k, Im worried I might actually cave in but 34k is way too much for him.

mattholmes Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 have felt like that before but you can't let your heart rule your head i have difficulty managing watford because normally i'm ruthless with staff but i know who the people are and how good a job they do IRL!

juve_curr Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Yeah, I found it hard to let Camoranesi go when he was getting old and Nedved aswell. He was a coach for me after retiring and Cievo wanted him as manager. I was sad to see them go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
