Xabi Alonso now plays for United on my game :colonhash:

I wanted to bring him back but I was not giving a 33 year old £100,000 a week :colonhash:

Are you Liverpool? Wait until the end of the season, it'll probably get blocked by planning permission :sigh:

I had a 5000 seat extension blocked at the end of the season :rolleyes:

So I am now going to have to try and save up for about 10 seasons to get a new stadium.

Moved to Real Madrid at the end of the 2020 season. They have 94267 seats already. I don't want 733 extra seats, I want 100k seats in total. :colone:

I feel too close to Liverpool to ever leave them, I want to be there long enough so my son comes through the academy and hopefully the new stadium gets named after me :colone:

Once you have been there for years and you are a legend, if you get a stadium built there is a good chance it will be named after you, same as having a son come through the youth academy.

Would be a great stadium name though :awesome:

I once got City to name a new stadium after me. I promptly stopped playing the save before I ruined it.

Damn, I'm staying at real sociedad for another ten years. I'll be a legend, plus I want to have my son come through the youth academy and play him in every game. Do they say the guy is your son?

Managed to win the FA Cup 2-1 after extra time. Went 1-0 down in about the 55th mindue to a Parker 20 yard strike :colonhash:

(he keeps scoring in Tottenham vs Norwich matches as in our first game he scored an own goal to make us draw 1-1 and keep our unbeaten run going.

I promptly brought Hoolahan on and changed to a narrower, more direct formation (same tactics still - counter with rigid positions, usually play this with a 4-4-2) and it paid off almost immediately with Holt scoring an equaliser.

In the 115th min of the match, I brought Morison on for Pilkington and he provided Holt with the assist in the 120th minute! This was the first time I beat Spurs as well :^_^:

He has your surname and you are in the favoured personnell. I've never stayed at a club long enough to get one myself but this is the save where it happens!

It'd end up being named 'Cucumber Park' or something like that. It takes your surname and a generic stadium name (stadium, park, arena, things like that). Stadiums can also be named after any other club legends - I had one save where Arsenal had 'Adams Stadium' and Chelsea had 'Zola Park'. Other teams had their stadiums named after the club, with the worst one I found being 'Man City Stadium'...though at least even that would be slightly better than 'Man Utd Stadium' which would be a really crap stadium name :biggrin:

Can be, but it's not guaranteed. http://www.fm-base.co.uk/forum/football-manager-2010-players/29748-so-ever-had-son-3.html#post444109 is one example that looks crap from the start and has three likely career prospects - the player gets sentimental and keeps him around even though he's obviously ****, or he gets dumped and spends the rest of his career rotting away in the lower leagues, or he gets dumped and can't get another club and is so disillusioned about life as a footballer that he retires in his teens or early twenties.
But on the other hand, http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/265732-Sons-(blatant-show-off-thread)?p=6813698&viewfull=1#post6813698 is pretty awesome and has had a very successful career at the top level.

To be more specific, right from the mouth of an SI employee:

Every manager in the game has the same chance of getting a newgen created that is basically his "son". These newgens are technically exactly like other newgens, so they have the same chances of being busts or wonderkids or just average youth products than any other newgen created at the club.

And this does refer to all managers in the game, not just you as the player - I've seen a report of Brede Hangeland going into management and having a son in his youth team.
Admittedly, I kinda hope the code has a lower limit on how old the manager can be to get a son. I'd be a little worried if I create a 25-year-old manager and a little over a year later when youth candidates come up, there's a 16-year-old who's my 'son'. If that were the case, I'd have been pregnant when I was 9 :afraid:

Just finished my first season in 7th and won Manager of the Year even though I didn't win any Manager of the Months (even during my 21 game unbeaten run).

I've got Sanogo coming in the summer and I've got to clear out some of the team.
