Manno Activity

Sorrento Calcio 1945 were promoted last season from Serie D to Serie C but they are still showing as in Serie C on the data update. Will this be fixed as I was looking to manage them?

Hi Guys I've been looking at the following two laptops and wondered if anybody had a view on w...

December 2020 It's safe to say December was a busy month for us with the small matter of 8 games. We kicked things off against a struggling Tottenham and after taking an early lead through Cutrone, we struggled and could only take home a point. U...

Doesn't seem to have any real impact on us right now, although it's sad to see John Henry leave.

November 2020 November proved to be a rather inconsistent month for us, although we are still unbeaten in the league. We started off with a trick Champions League tie against Shakhtar and it proved to be just that. Ben Woodburn got our only goal in a...

October 2020 Well, what a month it has been. We remain unbeaten in the league and the Champions League. We started with a home game to Manchester City and after an underwhelming first half, we brought it back to take a 2-1 win thanks to a very late g...

September 2020 We started off September with an outstanding 8-1 over Everton which pleased the fans. Salah continuing his lethal start to the season and it's nice to see youngster D'Amico on the score sheet. We then welcomed Bayern Munich to...

August 2020 An unbeaten start to the season, although not the ideal start in all honesty. We started off with a home fixture against Watford, who took a 2-0 lead at Anfield, before Patrick Cutrone struck a hat-trick to save the day for us. We then tra...

2020/2021 Season Preview So it has been a busy summer period on the transfer side of things. You'll notice that we made £175 million from sales which included some big name departures. The first of those was Naby Keita who joined Real Madri...

2019/2020 End of Season Review The final part of this season felt a bit flat after we were knocked out of the Champions League. We finished in a respectable 3rd place, but way off the pace of Chelsea who won the title. It turned out to be another fru...

Absolutely gutted. Let's be honest, there is only one result we're interested in here. A very solid home performance, saw us level it up through Salah after Messi's initial penalty. Biggest game this team has faced comes around and we are...

Not an ideal situation. The centre back position is not great at the moment. Matip is set to leave on a free at the end of the season, and Gomez has hardly played at centre back in the past three years. Was hoping I'd get away with the lack of dept...

Historically I've really struggled against United, but this time we absolutely blew them away. Salah with a hat-trick showing his worth, and has now gone back in as first choice over David Neres on the right hand side. A nervy finale against Arsena...

Not a bad first leg that. Home advantage obviously favoured us, but a very pleasing performance. Only half time in the tie however.

2019/2020 Season It's not been the most convincing period over the past 2 months or so. You'll see there have been some unacceptable losses to Bournemouth, Middlesbrough and Stoke in the league. Really finding it tricky to find my best eleven...

Conducted some scouting throughout the first half of the season with the aim of bringing in a few English youngsters with some decent potential...ended up spending nearly £40 million! Here are the three newest recruits. Castro looks to be the best o...

Not sure how I sit on this one. He wants out and Barcelona are sniffing around. I've agreed with him that if a £73 million bid comes in for him then I will accept it. On the one hand, I don't want to lose such a good player. However, on...

2019/2020 Season Inconsistency creeping back in. And our unbeaten run comes to an end, although I never expected it to last. A pretty routine win over Huddersfield in the Carabao Cup sees us drawn against Leicester City in the quarter final. A decent p...

2019/2020 Season Still unbeaten so far this season. Mixed bag of results over the last four games. The wins against Brighton and Watford were pleasing, as we continue to assert some authority in the league. I wasn't too sure what to expect going i...

2019/2020 Season An unbeaten start so far in the opening 9 competitive games of the season. The draw with Huddersfield was rather concerning, and shows we can have flat performances. Another draw against Manchester City had me concerned but after that...

Here is how I'm going to line up this season, with the current injury situation. You'll notice that the major absentees are Jordan Henderson, who is sidelined with a twisted ankle for 4 weeks. De Ligt is out with a damaged spine for 2 months...

2019/2020 Season Preview Kicking it off with the transfers, not too much happened of note. The majority of my outgoings were young players going out on loan. Those leaving the club included Conor Randall who was never going to make it, so £1 mi...

So I'm in the mood for talking FM and giving short updates on how my save is going. In terms of long term objectives for this save I haven't really got all that much. I started with Liverpool with the aim of winning the Premier League title and...

Starting at Liverpool and seeing where it goes...

Season One:: September 2017 September turned out to be a fairly successful month for us. Although it hasn't felt as good as the results look. I am still struggling to find our main source of goals. I'm thinking of giving someone a prolonged...

August 2017 It's been an odd first month in charge, but one that can be seen as positive. We were up against it with an opening fixture away at Salford. We went 1-0 down but a Terry Galbraith penalty sparked us in to action and then with 10 minute...

Haha, I'm sure I can! Mixed results so far. Struggling to make use of our high possession (60%) in most games.

Darlington is the first stop then! I'm very sceptical after seeing @shedender get sacked with them. However, there wasn't any choice. Both Bognor Regis and FC United of Manchester decided to go with other candidates. The Vanarama North is wher...

I've just set up my new career story. I've tried posting my first update as a comment twice now and it has disappeared both times. The post shows up when I click the preview button, but when I click post it does not appear on the story and has c...

Introduction Here we are then. FM18 is out and its time to embark on a journeyman. Before I start, it's worth noting that my managerial skills are limited and this could just turn in to 'FM18 sacking simulator' The aim is simple, to wi...

Taking on a European journeyman save as my first 'main' save on FM18. I'm jumping right in the deep end, with only 10 hours played so far in the beta. The ultimate aim from this save is to work my way up to the top and win the Champions League with a club...

Not going to be on my PC until tomorrow, so I'll screenshot it then. Here is what it currently us: GK: Craig Ledley LB: Matthew Targett CB: Willi Orban CB: Cesar Montes RB: Tennai Watson CM: Granit Xhaka CM: Milinkovic-Savic CAM: Louis Schaub LW:...

Just as I praise him and he comes in to some form...

Some deadline day action for you. Adama Traore comes in from Middlesbrough for £11 million. This is a huge gamble on my part. He has the potential to come good for us and has explosive pace, which I hope to exploit. His obvious downfall is his 1...

A new signing has just walked through the door. I always knew I would need a permanent right back, with Alexander-Arnold only on loan. After the poor performances from Arnold this season, I was well and truly put off paying his big fee, so I decided on...

January 2019 Well, well, well. January 2019 has certainly been something spectacular. Firstly we played 8 games throughout the course of January. Secondly, take at look at our results... January could not have started harder, two consecutive fixtures...

2018/2019 Season - 1st Half of the Season Firstly, sorry for not updating this story in a while. I've been back at university this week so it has all been a bit busy. I'm back now to give you a quick rundown of how the first half of the season...

Thanks @sanka I don't play wingers in my formation and his only other role was a CAM and I managed to bring in two better CAMs in Schaub and Lopez. He really didn't perform that well for me when I played with wingers or with him at CAM.

2018/19 Pre-Season It is now the day of our opening fixture against Chelsea in the Premier League. Therefore, I thought I'd give you a run down of how our pre-season went and also the tactic and likely starting eleven for this season. So as you...

So when I said I was done in the transfer window, I was lying. It's nothing major though. I have £22 million still in the bank and I've got Tadic about to depart for around £10 million. The departure of Tadic is the reason for the si...

I'd definitely be interested in reading more updates on this!

2018/2019 Season - Summer Transfer Window So I have now completed my transfer business for the summer window, or so I think I have. Here is a look at what has gone on at the club, in what is a major overhaul. The major factor behind the spending is the &...
