Do you have a set of students sitting in a classroom playing Football Manager against each other?

Awesome, Jack.

[Bluesummers]

Let me guess. You scored a 70..and now want to show us you're above average?! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Bah..Mourinho would score a 95+.

You'll never manage Milan..at this rate you won't even manage Villa. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

EDIT: Would the other coach know what tactics you're supposed to play? Will you be rated according to how you stop the other guy's tactics as well. I mean it seem pretty one-dimensional if you know he's going to use wings and not the centre..while if you knew he's going to use longballs and nothing else. You just double team the target man.

LOL thanks for the words of encouragement jack (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Nah I haven't done the test yet. I'm still a little young and have lots to learn. I probably wouldn't score even 70 if I went. Its an extremely difficult examination. They fail 2/3 applicants at the program. They've failed academy coaches before and ex pros. They've failed people who've done drills for the likes of harry redknap for years. Its an exam that tests you on how good you really are. To score an 80 you must be absoloutly worldclass in relation to the course. So If I'm doing B licensence, I must be able to do the exam like i've had the B lisence for years and same goes with UEFA A and Pro. It really is a difficult exam. Failure rate is 70% on average. Thats why were lucky that Leonardo was able to get a buy into his lisence otherwise he probably would have failed his UEFA A.

-Also no you do not know what he is running. You do know that he is going to be running a topic, but its uknown. They also test you on if you can read the game and see what he is playing and suit your style towards edging him while staying on topic, which sometimes is very hard. So yes they look at every aspect.

Once you get the lisence you can make big money so its not a joke. They take it very seriously.

Hmm...this course seems more and more fascinating by the minute. Good luck. And I really mean it this time!

[Danny]

Very important for Sandro that he dusts himself off after his rather poor derby showing (and slightly lax Siena display as well) and tries to get to grips with what we know he (was once) capable of.

He's better than he's shown so far.

[Jack Sparrow]

You're bringing it back to topic. You're evil!!

haha thanks but I don't need luck. I am the heir of the special one and have been gifted with godlike potential like the special one. I'll ofcourse lead milan to victory with a 70% winning avg (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Furthermore, I'll take lessons from the special one. With this man as my mentor, I will win it all (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

So, Alessandro Nesta got a rating of 8 for the Atalanta game -- something of a miracle compared to how badly the rest of the team played. An Italian acquaintance who watched the game said that he effectively covered the defense and the midfield and played partially as a trequartista, including when he provided the assist to Ronaldinho for the goal.

My acquaintance also commented that he's been the only one of the senators who's given 100% each game, who's spoken well when interviewed, even after crappy games like the Atalanta one, and that he, really, is the de facto captain of the squad -- he's the only one really leading both on and off the pitch. The acquaintance also commented that despite his past with Lazio (where he was also captain), Nesta is the one really deserving of the armband right now.

All of the above is correct. We surely would have lost another game against Atalanta if it was not for him. He did everything!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) dint see the game but wow, are we that pathetic that nesta has to do this now?!?!?!

[Jack Sparrow]

Then give him the bleeding armband. I want some leadership in this team, some goddamn..f@cking accountability.

And make them all watch this: Speech

[MizNelson]

There are folks out there who continue to insist that Pato is our best player.

[Zed.D]

Out where exactly? The Idiots' Forum?

+1 Always felt this way...

hey may be our best player but thats not saying much.


No one on this squad can be considered good enough for Milan.

[Danny]

I said before the season started that he should have been given the armband. He was the only candidate then, and he's the only candidate now.

And he's not even at 100%, nowhere near it.

It says something for how dire we are that a sub-par Nesta is the best current player at the club, Storari and Abate's current form notwithstanding.
