Yeah I play FM2008.
On my 3rd season as the USA gaffer. Won the Gold Cup and Confederations Cup thus far, and sitting top of my group for WC qualification.

Re: Anyone play Football Manager and or Championship Manager?
Ya I had the demo and I played as spurs new manager and didn't have any background and boy did the players think I couldn't get the job done. Me and berbs even openly in the papers had some spats. Pascal wanted to go and I guess Berbs was kinda high on him and it started. Juve actually offered me 25 mil for him and berbs was into it. Too bad the demo stopped before I could see how it was going to play out.
I did transfer Defoe to Portsmouth for a whooping 17 mil and then I picked up Huntsleer(sorry for the spelling) and he had 9 goals in 5 games. I thought it was a pretty good transfer and worked out. Im hoping to order the American version over the net very soon.

W 1-0 Cameroon
Eddie Johnson (11')
D 2-2 Germany
Benny Feilhaber (71') Taylor Twellman (81')
Christian Herzog (25') Jens Peters (61')

2. USA 7 points
3. Bulgaria 3 points
4. Cameroon 0 points
Drew Holland in my round of 16 game.
W 4-3 Holland
Eddie Johnson (3') Landon Donovan (9' 62') Sal Zizzo (55')
Dirk Kuyt (21') Robin van Perise (37') Ryan Babel (89')

Re: Anyone play Football Manager and or Championship Manager?
Win it for us!!! Also its good to see Freddy getting some run and also what formation are you playing with? If you win will you take your managerial skills to a club...... Spurs perhaps? How are spurs doing anyway in your game? Last thing is Jozy Altidore in the side. Sal Zizzo is also a good talent. Who is the keeper Guzan or the reliable Tim Howard?

1) Depends on who's healthy, I typically run with a 3-4-3 or a 4-3-3.
2) I probably will, however Spurs just filled a vacany during the World Cup. 
3) Altidore is not in the squad yet, i'm going to give him a run in our post-WC friendlies.
4) Timmy is having an amazing tournament, I hope he sticks around for a while.

Where would you go if Spurs wasn't available and you wanted to move on? Any other clubs strike your fancy.

Any of the 4 clubs on my favorites, however I could be persuaded to go to any club with a large transfer budget.

Re: Anyone play Football Manager and or Championship Manager?
So you would go MLS? Even if you won 1st in World Cup. I think Spurs would open up a spot for you. Sheff Weds. might be a good test for you as well. Tell ne how the WC played out.
