7 Games left in my Liverpool season, I'm 2nd and 5 points behind City in 1st and have to play them away after the first leg of my Champions League game. On a 6 game winning streak and I'm also in the quarter finals of the Champions league against Lyon. I Have to be careful if I don't get to the top of the league though as 5 points separate 2nd and 7th. Top 7 at the moment is:

1. Manchester City (70)
2. Liverpool (65)
3. Arsenal (64)
4. Chelsea (63)
5. Wolves (63)
6. Manchester United (60)
7. Tottenham (60)

All played 31 apart from Tottenham and United who have played 32.

Wolves are second with 60 pts on my arsenal game, me being third with 59 pts and city being top with 70 pts with 8 games to go. And also into the quarter finals of ECC, against Barca though so ill get killed by them.

A disastrous 3 games has put me out of the running for the title and the Champions league. The first leg of the CL was at Anfield and I scored within 30 seconds, only for it to be disallowed (very frustrating in such a big game! ) but in the end lost 5-2. The game after that against City was a disaster too, at the City of Manchester stadium. I played awful without Torres, Gerrard, Mascherano and Johnson and ended up losing 5-1. Second leg of the CL was 2-2 so I went out. I'm 1 point clear of Arsenal in 2nd but Chelsea (in 5th) have 1 game in hand over me and are still 2 points behind.

Just hoping to get a top 4 finish and recruit well in the summer after being taken over, hopefully they'll give me some money...

Epic fail

I hate takeovers. I gave in and went back to my Arsenal saved game and took over Notts County following their relegation from the Prem. Four months into the job and I'm sacked again as part of a takeover.

Middle of the 2nd season with Leeds, 4th in the Championship and Bates is looking to step down on it ( ) just hope it's someone rich and not Lorimer like last time I did a "career game" with Leeds.

Re: Football Manager 2010 : Wed Mar 31, 2010 4:28 pm  

3rd season done and dusted and another very reasonable season. Finished in 10th place, which i feel is reasonable, although i was a little disappointed as i was hoping to finish about 8th with the squad i had. A very inconsistent season, just when i thought that i was starting to play well after a couple of wins, i'd come back down to earth with a lose against a team that i should be beating quite easily. Players like Van der Vaart were very, very inconsistent, but i've just sold him anyway and recouped the money i paid for him. Big summer awaits with the likes of Viera and Belletti (and more) who were no more than squad players this season leaving due to the end of there contracts and i don't want to re-new them due to there age. I signed a few 16/17 year old regens that looked to have very good potential that will come at the end of the season, but they should only come good in another few years now i am established in the premier league i need to think about the future rather than just the present. I will be looking to bring in a few players in summer, as quite a few of my squad members are leaving.

I've just bought Naughton for £2million from the transfer list as back up as he can cover both sides of the field. Also, signed Kadlec in January last season because we wasn't scoring enough goals, and he played well for me.

For some reason, Southampton are rich and i haven't been taken over or anything.
