Why not play Fifa Manager 06? They have 3D simulator and it makes you like watching your team play in the real game. Every instruction you have given counts it and it will totally reflect on the 3D match action..Unlike others, you just see dots or text in describing your teamplay. It was quite boring just to see the dots and text in teamplay description. Anyway, this is just my personal opinion.

If you like to watch game in 3D simulator, try FIFA Manager 06.

mod in the game section not familiar with games laugh.gif
just kidding mate

FM is the updated version of CM smile.gif
so, you will get all the latest squad, most of the time just like in CM they will patch the game at the end of the jan transfer window so there will be a new set of players with that patch if your club have bought new players
more features such as 2d pitch which the game even more exciting rather than just reading the lines tongue.gif

FM players will never get the kick in fifa manager 06 coz that game is light years behind in realism and actual player stats
FM players prefer realism >>> superb 3d graphics of an 'easy' game
why do i say easy? with enough funds you can buy all the best stat players just like that with almost no hitch whatsoever doh.gif

when Eidos splits SIGames, Eidos gets to keep the name, CM and SIGames gets the games engine.

So, play Football Manager

Cm's only good point that it's faster than FM in crunching game. but come to think of it, EA Championship manager is faster and that does not mean that it's good (But IMHO, it's still better than CM)

i bought CM5....went home fast fast install...after less than an hour, i threw the cd pack into my pirates cd box, & then uninstall it.. cos it's too complicated, not user friendly & not so attractive compared to FM... FM is much easier to play & navigate around ler...

just my op tongue.gif

FM2007?? wait til december la...

It's easier for ex-CM players to switch to FM than to play the new CM as FM maintains the old CM engine while CM runs on a totally new engine, hence it sucks...

Totally dissapointed with CM5, played for less than an hour, and FM2006, still playing till today. Cant wait for FM 2007...haha...
