This is probably the best thing I’ve managed to do in one of these games. We beat Manchester City at Eastlands in the quarter finals, too.
I’m enjoying FM2012 a lot, mainly because of my decision to drop any pretensions of tactical acumen and instead play all my games in an unchanging 4-4-2 formation set to “attack”. At this point it ceases to be a football game, instead just spewing out arbitrary large integers, but it’s entirely entertaining.
Equally refreshing is starting as a team in the Championship and trying to work my way up to the Premier League – I haven’t yet tried this in a modern FM game, and it’s really very neat. I’m probably going up this season – I’m first at the start of February, and seven points clear of third place – but unsure of my ability to stick around in the Premier League once I get there. My board selling my best defender under my nose isn’t going to help matters. I’ve had to replace him with – and you’ll like this – Piscu. Piscu. Christ.
