Wow, you have done brilliantly, keep up the good work! im sure you can win your 3rd season as well. This is Manchester UTD right? By the way welcome to FMF, you should post in the introduction forum to let people get to know you

**Angel-SVK** · 17-07-08, 09:57 PM

Thanks. This is my team :

**Angel-SVK** · 17-07-08, 11:10 PM

3rd season going well so far. Still 1st in league, 23 games without losing, 16 game winning streak.
With Slovakia I played 2 friendlies:
Slovakia - France 1:3 - very even match just much better finnishing by France

Slovakia - Nigeria 3:3 - good game, very entertaining.
Moved with Slovakia to 6th place in world rankings

**liveru** · 17-07-08, 11:16 PM

Not a bad team that mate.

Surprised you bought Martin Skrtel as I think he's pretty poor on FM. Hamsik is a brilliant acquisition. He's a phenomenon.

Unlucky against France. I think it was just the fact that they have better strikers.

**Angel-SVK** · 18-07-08, 07:28 AM

About Skrtel, He is not the best, but he does the job and he is not complaining if he is not playing for a longer period so a great back up player. I have to say that my 3 DC`s are playing the same amount of games, maybe Ferdinand playing mostly, plus Cathcart playing some times, he looks very promising.

**liveru** · 18-07-08, 12:21 PM

I've bought Cathcart in past savegames and he was pretty good. I had him when he was in his late 20s with Norwich and he was an integral part of my Canaries side that reached the semi finals of the Champions League again.

thedeeb · 18-07-08, 02:46 PM

Looks like you're doing really well, mate. I noticed you're using the flash tactic - it worked really well for me, but I think I've been rumbled by the AI.

Are you using that tactic for Slovakia?

**Angel-SVK** · 18-07-08, 05:30 PM

No I`m not using the same tactic for Slovakia. I actualy didn`t know that it is called flash tactic. I never downloaded any tactics. For Slovakia I use a bit diffrent setup, I have DM. It`s doing wonders with the Slovak team. Take a look at the pictures. The biggest suprise for me in Slovak team is the striker Robert Zeher, from the time I picked him for the team he played 10 games with 14 goals and 4 assist`s.

**Angel-SVK** · 18-07-08, 08:57 PM

Game corrupted !!!!!! Damm it !!!!!! And I was doing so good. No choice - let`s start over

**Angel-SVK** · 21-07-08, 09:11 PM

I`m back in game

After I installed patch 8.02, my save started to work again !!! And by the way I`m doing good.

**Angel-SVK** · 22-07-08, 10:51 PM

So, the winter transfer window was coming and I decided to make some changes in my team. Until now I didnt spend much money, but I thought "Why not ??". My remaining transfer budget was 94.7 M Euro. Not bad :)
transfers in:
David Villa - ST - 50M Euro
Marek Sapara - AMC - 11M Euro
Federico Fazio - SW/DC/DM - 9M Euro
Antunes - DL - 4.5M Euro
And at the end of the season I have some more coming:
Rafael van der Vaart - AMC - free
Senna - DM - free
Victor Diaz - DR - 4.1M Euro

Transfers out:
Carlos Tevez - FC - 31M to Barcelona
Craig Catchart - DC - 8.0M Euro to Chelsea
Vladimir Koman - AMRC - 7M to Bolton
and I`m trying to offload till the end of the season thjese players:
Owen Hargreaves, Wes Brown, Park Jin-Sun, Marek Jankulovski, Nani
So I should get some money back.

I have to say that I did know that Villa is a great player, but he his actualy superb. Take a look at the screenshot, that`s after his first 5 games with me.
And big suprise is Sapara, played 10games and doing great.
About Antunes I didnt hear before, but he seems to be very good.

In the Premiership I`m doing good, 25 games in 11 point ahead of Chelsea.
Played the last game against them at home and it was a thriller until the very end. I was down from the 14th min., goal by Drogba. I was strugling a bit until David Villa scored in the 87th min. and then in the 96min Sapara got a superb freekick goal !!!!

With Slovakia I`m looking forward to the World Champ., got a good group with
Morroco, South Korea and Belgium so I`m confident that I can win the group and then will see. I`m at the 7th place in the World rankings. :)

And here are some screens. If you want to see any more, just let me know.

**Angel-SVK** · 24-07-08, 06:15 PM

Manchester United brought home the League cup 2010. In trilling final game against Arsenal 5 : 4 ET !!!!!!
A hatt-rick from Wayne Rooney (30.34.87min.) in regular time was not enough to seal the deal, Arsenal scored with Adebayor (7min), van Persie (55min) and Vela (89min). In the extra time United where the team who wanted the trophy more, with goals from Pique (107min) after a great corner from Sapara (3 Assists) and David Villa (112min) Arsenal was able to answer once with Adebayor`s second of the night in the 117min. United players where overjoyed win this trophy, AGAIN !!!!

**Bowser** · 24-07-08, 07:21 PM

Make a backup file or have a 3 file rolling auto save like TH xD and well done on winning the trophies, although I have to say, they're not the hardest team to manage!

**Angel-SVK** · 24-07-08, 08:08 PM

Another glorious day in United history.
FA Cup 6th round:
Manchester UTD - Chelsea 5 : 0
Again a nice hatt-rick from Wayne Rooney and 2 goals from David Villa.

2Browser:
I have a 3 file rolling auto save and I`m keeping backup files as well.
I now that they are not the hardest team to manage, but it is still fun to win trophies :)
And I intend to stay at Manchester as long as will be possible.
I have different games as well :
Napoli - 1st season
Slovan Bratislava - 2nd season

And here is a screenshot of Rooney so far this season.

mister_b · 24-07-08, 09:30 PM

Great Job dude, you have made some shrewd buys there, Marek Hamsik is awesome and Sapara is a great signing for me

**liveru** · 24-07-08, 09:37 PM

Brilliant result against Chelsea mate.

I don't think I've ever seen Chelski lose by that much before on FM.

**Angel-SVK** · 24-07-08, 10:33 PM

Thanks, seems that my players love to play against big teams, I just beat Liverpool 5 : 1. Everything is going well right now. And I`m already looking forward to next season as I have some good players coming in.
P.S.:Liveru, did u get my PM ??
