Your Career Mode

Hey guys. I'm kinda around here and thought i'd post this so see how everyone's career have gone so far.

Well mine started out Ok. I went into the scottish league first with Glasgow Rangers, and in my first season ever playing FIFA 2005, i ended up second in the scottish league and won the Scottish FA cup. I qualified for the EFA, only to get my rear handed to me in the group phase Lol. That year i managed to get Bergkamp on my side =) only to find out players retire! Lol. After Bergkamps retirement, i was going nuts, but than found out you get replacements. In my second and third year, i did very good in the Scottish league and won them both and won the Scottish FA cup twice more. Champions League was a different story. My second year that i won the Scottish cup, i went into the Champions League and totally got owned by Monaco in the Quaters with a 6-3 Aggregate. 2004-2007 was my season with Rangers and i went on to manage the giant Manchester United. YA MAN U!! Lol. My first season with Manchester United was the best. I transfered in 3 awesome players. Due to Van Nistelrooy recieving a severe injury and not being able to come back until June 17th, i needed some new strikers. I brought in Makaay, Saviola and the awesome Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Ibrahimovic came in during the January transfer window. Makaay and Saviola came in during the august one. Rooney, Makaay and Saviola formed this striker hell for opponent defenders while i brought in Smith at times. Ibrahimovic came in for a reason. Rooney's injury. Rooney received a severe injury at the hands of J.Terry and wasn't coming back till June 28th. Smith wasn't fullfiling the part and so i brought in Ibrahimovic. I have not regret that decision to this day. Ibrahimovic took control of the game in my team and dominated in goal scoring. I won the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League. I was suprised alot cause it became a repeat of the real 1999 treble. I faced Bayern Munich in the Champions League, only to go down 1-0 until about the 89th minute. It was ENTIRELY like the '99 miracle, but something like it. 89th minute, i get a corner, In swinging 3 i choose. Ibrahimovic dodges his defender and ties it up. Sometime around stoppage time, from far out, Svaiola nails a scorcher that hits the bar and richochet's in. 2-1 the final. I was stunned at how this could be a coincedence Lol. Going into my second season with Manchester United, i didn't do as good as last season. I placed Second behind Newcastle and the only trophy i got was a Champions League one again with a 4-2 victory of Anderlecht. Makaay was traded this season and the dominators were Van Nistelrooy, Ibrahimovic and Rooney. Saviola and Smith did good for me too. Coming into my current season...it's been hell. I have no idea why this season has gone wrong. I've gotten Luque, Van Der Vaart, Gingar and Zandi as new midfielders in trade. My current record is 11-9-9 and i'm sitting in bloody 11th! i dunno why it's gone soo bad. 2010 season is starting to suck badly..

That's my career so far.

re: Your Career Mode

I started with Aberdeen and made no changes to the team except bringing in Robbie Elliot to cover my weak left back. Started quite poorly lost a few games but then after about a month I started winning loads and was 2nd in the league. Later I came up against Rangers, beat them and I was sitting pretty at the the top of the table! I got knocked out of the League Cup by Celtic and then they beat me again in the SPL which meant Rangers went up to top of the table. I brought in Fletcher from Man Utd and put him in my midfield and after a good performance from the team I came second in the league 2 points behind the champions Rangers. I was also in the final of the FA Cup but was beaten 2-1 by Rangers, so in the end I didn't win a thing but was offered another contract, but Newcastle were also offering and was the only Premiership side- so I accepted!
I brought in new defenders (Melchiot, Modesto and Armand) and left the rest of the team as it was. Started off alright, a mix of mostly wins but also draws and losses. By December I was 3rd, but a run of 6 draws meant I slipped down to 5th. When January came I decided to bring in a new striker because Ameobi wasn't scoring and Kluivert/Bellamy couldn't play every game due to fitness so I brought in Darren Huckerby and sold Ameobi. He started scoring right away and scored a hat-trick on his debut! I was in the League Cup final against Middlesbrough and won 2-0 and was now 2nd in the Premiership behind Arsenal, one point behind them with Man Utd equal on points with me. In the next few games I beat both of them and went top of the table where I remained for the rest of the season. Sadly I had got knocked out in the quarter finals of the Champions League against Real Madrid after they won on away goals (3-3 on aggregate) but beat Arsenal in the FA Cup final. Newcastle offered me another job and I took it wanting to win everything before I left Newcastle, I brought in Silvestre for defence and a left winger called Keita- he's slow but skillful and good at crossing/shooting. With Kluivert/Bellamy/Huckerby still rotating round who's playing depending on who's fit I started the season and got to 6 games winning without conceding a goal until I drew 1-1 with Sunderland of all people. But then the winning streak continued to 11 games till I drew again with Portsmouth. Then I carried on winning until I lost to Charlton and later on come January I lost again to Liverpool. In January I brought in Scott Parker and put Keita in the reserves cause he is too slow for my liking, I also brought in Igor Tudor to take Bramble's place in my defence and I now have a completeley different defence to the one which I started at Newcastle with. I've just won the League Cup against Man Utd and I'm in the quarter finals of the FA Cup against Southampton. In the Champions League I'm starting the knock out stage against Real Madrid, hoping not to get knocked out by them again! In the league I'm 11 points clear at the top with a record of 24-3-2

re: Your Career Mode

Nice Career so far!

I'm going against Benfica in the Round of 16 in the Champions League soon.

What i don't understand is why my current season has gone so bad. Have I lost my touch in playing the game? Cause I either draw or lose now. I'm starting to win slowly, but i'm still puzzled at why this season has ended up giving me no hope at the title and a slim hope of even making the UEFA cup. Sitting at 11th..geez.

re: Your Career Mode

Bring in some new defenders, as far as I can see you've only brought in midfielders and strikers. That could be a problem, maybe try changing tactics/formations, otherwise I can't think of anything else that's affecting it

re: Your Career Mode

I started as Lincoln, did pretty well towards the start of the season, got up into first with a bit of a cushion, then completley lost it towards the end and dropped to third, came back from the dead by beating the top 2. Lost to rushden and diamonds 4-1 away only to beat them at home 5-0

League cup i was knocked out by cheltenham of all teams, did well in the FA cup reaching the 4th round and losing 1-0 to walsall.

Won the league and moved on to league 1 as lincoln again.

Beat Brighton 4-0 (which pained me) on the first game, top on the league miles clear and out of the league cup (again) to West ham after coming back from 2-0 down to 2-2 lost 3-2 in the last 10 mins.

I should carry on one day

re: Your Career Mode

I am on my 7th season and been to Scotland, FA Champ, Portugal, Premier, Spain, Italy and now back with Man Utd for second season. I wanted to go to germany so i would have finished all the major leagues of the world, but rooney seemed to not improve and i can't really have that.
Even though my team looks nothing like Manchester United now,
sad really, strikers still the same but the midfield is now made of Ronaldinho, Gerrard, C Ronaldo, Kaka, and reincarnate of Scholes. The defence is A.Cole, Rio, reincarnate of both stam and cafu.
Stam now called Luijten, is my best defender, although he has the lowest stats, he has improved by 9 points throughout the last 1and a half seasons very good for a 21yr.
I want to buy Lucio he is held good the one and only 5 stared defender in the game, but he is 32.

Ronaldinho is usless to me dunno why but he really sucks.

Does anyone know how to make a player improve faster? Rooney is only at 92 and he is already 25, is rating is now 9.7, have been for the last 2 months but his stats hasn't changed. My friend Rooney is already on 94 and only 23. :'(

re: Your Career Mode

Personally I don't see why you should be able to start as rangers / celtic in your first season lol. You should be able to manage them around same time as midtable clubs in premiership;o

re: Your Career Mode

Well finished my season about 21 points clear of second place Liverpool with a goal difference of +73 and a record of 31-5-2 I beat Man Utd in the FA Cup final 3-1 and beat Roma 5-3 in the Champions League final (that was a close one though, it was 3-3 at half time). I decided beforehand that I would only move clubs if Barcelona were offering....which they weren't so I've stayed at Newcastle another season

re: Your Career Mode

I'm in my 2010-2011 season now. I found out why i was doing so bad last season. I haden't changed formation in a long time, i had the tactics the same and plus stress was getting to me. I finished 9th last season so pretty bad but i'm doing great in my current season. 10-3-2 and i'm second with 1 point behind Arsenal. Van Nistelrooy has retired and his replacement is doing great! plus i'm brought in Viera and Adriano. Ibrahimovic is doing great. I just finished giving Birmingham city a 6-2 beating. I was suprised too Lol. I was looking a the League Cup results and saw something shocking. Wigan Atheltic beat Burnely 10-0. I'm not joking about this, i'll take a screenshot soon. I was like woah!

I couldn't be Rangers or Celtic either, that's why I was Aberdeen. It's all about luck I think

re: Your Career Mode

Yeah, so I was Hearts for my first season (i'm a black guy called Benedict Mackintosh) and i led Hearts to the SPL title and the Scottish Cup thanks to the efforts of Stikers Mark de Vries and Ramon Pierira. 2nd season,i was Hearts again and I repeated by double cup win but also took the Champions League Cup aswell (unrealistic but its only a game)

3rd season I abandoned Hearts and took up post as Aston Villa where i sold off Vassell and instead brought in Baros, Defoe and Hartson. I came 2nd in the league and won both English cups before defecting to Middlesbrough (my team) at the beginning of my 4th season...im currently into my fourth season at Middlesbrough winning the league 3 times,uefa cup once,fa cup 3 times,carling cup twice and the Champs league twice.
