mexamoxa Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I'm curious. I've always only created myself but I can see all the positives of managing multiple teams, the biggest being able to loan youngsters and keep their "high quality" development going So, hum, how schizophrenic are you?!

roykela Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Only 1 for me. I would probably lose track if i managed more than 1 team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo7 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Only ever managed one club at a time, and that's hard enough to keep up with! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafuge Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Occasionally I'll manage a club and a nation, but only ever one club at a time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmi88 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 My friends like 25 years in the future on fm12, but he is managing 5 teams at once, don't know how he does it. I am happy with just the 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacticalGenius Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I was planning on retiring my manager in the late 2040's/early 2050's, then adding a younger one at a small club then taking them up to rival my current club. An ideal job came up, so I added the new manager before I planned to retire and managed the two clubs for a few months. It was hell. Never doing it again.

raymondafc Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I barely have enough time to manage one team these days let alone 2 or 3! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guarnere Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I'm managing just one, have thought about starting a save in which I manage 2 teams, just never got to it just yet.. Ah well, maybe in FM14.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjericho Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Even managing one club and a national team makes the game very confusing for me, so absolutely only one club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
markyosullivan Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I'm happy with just one. It'd take ages to complete a season if I was managing more than one team, plus I won't feel the same attachment to my one club if I was managing a couple at the same time.

KevMaaan Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Only one club at time for me, any more and i would be too tempted to cheat and send all of the clubs money to one club. I can see the benefits of multi-club management though. Would be nice to manage udinese, granada and watford for example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccer.joel Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 If you include national teams 2 but only one manager per save Except on FM10 I had a manager who managed the Newcastle Jets then Schalke and another who managed AUstralia the whole time as well as enjoyable stints at Hertha Berlin and Wigan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
podunkboy Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 only one manager per save, but I juggle 2-3 different saves on '13, '12, and sometimes '11. I have problems with attention deficit at times, evidently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenco Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I'm managing two, despite my limited time on FM. After 3 and a half years with Liverpool I decided I wanted a new challenge but also didn't want to give up on the work I was doing with Liverpool, so I added a manager to take over at Angers, a team struggling in Ligue 2. They had a tiny squad with only 1 centre back for some reason (other than youth), so I immediately had my work cut out but managed to avoid relegation on the final day of the season. Picked up some useful free transfers and a number of loanees and find myself top of the league at Christmas! It's slowed my game down obviously, but it's kept my interest as I'm really feeling a connection with both teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelBrown Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I manage a club and a nation, but I couldn't manage any more. I don't have the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjm Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I used to do multiple clubs on CM2/3, but haven't since then. Matches (and everything else) takes me much longer now! I have done club+nation though (i.e. with one manager). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGull8559 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 3-4 on my main save. Only help each other out if it benefits both clubs though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR866Gunner Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 It's hard enough managing 1st team, reserves and U18's! Let alone 5 individual teams! Bit of a joke really as you could sell players to one team and make them really good! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurnRaisin Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 My friend has gone a bit OCD imo and is managing, His frist team, reserves and u18 while managing a national team too. Not only that but he plays every match on a slow speed on full match while also managing every friendly and is still playing FM10 and is only in like 2035 even tho he plays it often, I'd get a full season done in the time it would take him to play a month or so.

I don't play the reserves or U-18s and am only in 2025 on FM11... playing full highlights for most of my career means each season takes a while and then there's often a few months of not playing FM before the itch comes back. Steam says 2539 hours, although that's not really true, I often leave FM running for hours (sometimes days) without actually playing a match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranquelme Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I'm managing my original save which is Villarreal. I then take over a team when they have a tycoon and sign actual quality players even if they are in my league. I did this with Atletico Madrid and I bought: Nasri, Silva, Papadolous, Thiago Silva, Abel Henandez, Fernando Torres, Benzema and a few more. Currently managing Inter with a tycoon as well and signed the likes of Cavani, Neymar, Eriksen, Kagawa, Verrati and more. I sometimes take over clubs who have sacked their manager and just sort them out a bit with coaches and transfers and then retire. Doing this has made the game more of a challenge as Atletico currently are a title force and a CL force. Normally by 5 seasons I would sweep up the league. The tycoon situation used to annoy me as a lot of clubs with tycoons would spend horribly and never get anywhere! So I've had to help them a bit and it works so far.

Lord Dakier Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I didn't know you could manage more than 1 club and 1 national. Are we talking about say Barcelona B and C teams also or just regular English reserve and youth sides? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can add multiple managers to the game and play each one yourself rather than in hotseat mode with multiple players on one computer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
