Hi all long time reader and fm player since fm14 ive only just upgraded from fm15 to fm19 im playing on a mac and taken ages to update my os to a suitable level. So im pretty familiar with the fm setup but may take a while to get used to the new features. Mostly im just happy to be playing with an up to date database.
First started playing as my beloved Juventus five years ago ( I was brought up in the uk in the 90s so football italia was my thing and the black and white of Nedved, Del Piero, Thuram, Zambrotta, Conte, Davids, Trezeguet made an impression on me) but found it too easy the same goes later on with Napoli, Roma etc I quit roma 3 years in as they got a case of loseritis i couldnt explain every game was 60 plus possesion and 25 shots on target to under 5 shots against but somehow we still drew kind of like real life roma. So i switched to relegation threatened Southampton and saved them, and then got them into the europa league the next season.
I then got inspired by reading these fmstories and decided to start unemployed and with the lowest qualifications, i started of with Benevento half way through the season in serie c c saved them into 12th started another season came second and won the playoffs into serie b then the next season recruited well and got promoted to into serie a got half way through the next season and got approached by Palermo so took the job they were lying in 19th but i got them to 12th in the table employed well again and won the coppa italia and finished in 9th getting me in to the europa league. Currently in my 3rd season and got approached by ac.milan but decided against as their previous manager signed to many flops so to much work to do in my opinion.
that was all on fm15 btw
so now a fresh challenge to match the update to fm19
Im a hands on manager so i will be taking control of everything including youth teams. I will be starting off as a sunday league no experience coach with no team and a 27 year old english italian and aim to match or exceed Carlo Ancelotti's managerial haul with all the top 5 leagues
So ive started off with a leaning towards being a tactical coach, the juventini in me would be so proud.
Funnily enough the league started off on my real life birthday. I will be applying for all any jobs and have all the top south american, american, asian, and european leagues.
So on with my journey. And check out my profile.
