Football Manager 2012

Joe Steinberg - Whats the pentagon challenge?

 

Start the game unemployed and with "automatic" past experience, you then have to work your way up the leagues then you have to win the Champions League equivalent in every continent

 

Thanks mate

 

Sunday League past experience actually. Otherwise you could just load top divisions and get a job at a good team straight away.

 

Thanks Joe, when you say every continent how many continent are they?

 

North America, South America, Asia, Europe, Africa?

Oceania comes under Asia iirc.

 

woah, I didn't think they was that many. haha wish me luck might take me few years.

 

There is a seperate Oceania Champions League, but none of the participating countries are on the game. Australia compete in Asia.

 

You can download leagues from Oceania though if you feel like playing as someone from Vanuatu etc.

 

Just played someone in Mexico with a clay pitch? Anyone else heard of this?

 

Do teams ask you or do you asked teams about managing the team? or doesn't it matter.......

 

I don't think there's one available for the 12.2 patch. Also the guy who makes those says he "used his imagination" for a lot of the leagues, so I'm not sure how true to life they are.

 

Both.

 

Qatar is probably my favourite foreign country to manage in.

 

Finally taking part in the Asian Champions League, but it looks like it's going to take me a while to win it. I've got the quarter final coming up, but I really don't think my team is strong enough to win it. I am also 5th in the league and therefore unlikely to qualify next season. The team is in serious debt so I might have to start a long-term rebuilding project. And on top of all that, I am struggling to remember any of my Korean players' names.

 

Wow, I really hate the K-league. One of my best players has gone off for "military service", which for some reason means he's joined a team called Sangju on loan (who are in my league!), and will be back in two years.

What?!

 

Yeah Koreans have to do two years of military service before they're 30, and when they do Sangju is a special military-run club

 

I'm still paying the guy's wages! And he's going to be playing against me! AHHHH!

Also, the last manager of this team was clearly having a good laugh when he got us 15k over the wage budget and signed more foreign players than I'm allowed to register. I think I might kill someone today.

 

who wants to start a network game? without 0.0.4

 

I started unemployed and holidayed the first season. Crystal Palace had just been relegated to took that job, it's going pretty well. Got Michael Owen on a free, Saints released Ward-Prowse, Sinclair and Chambers so I snapped them up, and Luke Shaw has joined on a free.

My best team atm:

Speroni
Clyne - Aaron Martin - McCarthy - Shaw
Williams - Garvan
Zaha - Ward-Prowse - Scannell
Owen
