Before You Start Your Career
Before you get your hands on any team, you must complete a few steps to
fill up some information and create a manager, you of course. Too bad that
it isn't like in "UEFA Champions League 2004/2005" by EA, where you can
create the manager just like if you were creating a player... Anyway, the
important here is not the way the manager looks, but how the team
performs. Well, let's start.
Creating A Manager
This is the first task you have to complete before you pick your team, and
is just filling up some information. Here is the list of the things you
have to provide with some information:
- Manager Look (21 to choose from)
- First Name
- Surname
- Nation (seems like every nation in the world is listed in here)
- Born
I don't think there's too much to explain here... Funny thing is that
there's some girls on the manager pictures... I was wondering how it
would be to see a girl manage a team? That definitely would be
interesting. Anyway, let's move to the next step.
Selecting A Starting Region
Again this year we have the world divided in regions (just like in real
life...). Actually we have one more region than last year, so there are
many options to choose from! As I stated in my previous FAQ, I never
recommend a region to start with. What I do highly recommend you is to
choose a lower division team, and make this team win everything, then move
on to another region or league.
Why? Because if you stuck in the same team your manager prestige will
remain the same. If you move through the world and have good results with
different teams your prestige will be better known in more regions of the
world... Do you understand now? Anyway, you are free to choose which
team or region do you want to start with.
REGION 1
- FA Premier League
- Football League Champ
- Football League One
- Football League Two
REGION 2
- K-League
- Brazilian League
- Mexican League
- MLS
REGION 3
- Italian Serie A
- Italian Serie B
- Spanish Primera
- Spanish Segunda
REGION 4
- French Division 1
- French Division 2
- German Bundesliga 1
- German Bundesliga 2
REGION 5
- Austrian Bundesliga
- Danish Superligaen
- Norwegian Tippeligaen
- Polish Ekstraklasa
- Swedish Allsvenskan
- Swiss Axpo Super League
REGION 6
- Belgian League
- Portuguese SuperLiga
- Scottish Premier
- Dutch Eredivisie
Picking A Team
After you selected a region, you will see the list of the teams within
that region that are offering you a job. This year you can start managing
teams up to 4 stars from the beginning! But be aware that the higher the
level you choose from the start the harder it will be to manage the team
business...
As soon as you picked your team, you will be again on your laptop with 2
incoming e-mails waiting for you.
One is from the Board of Directors, telling you what they expect from you
in the present season. And the other is a little help regarding the way
you must manage your staff.
After you read those e-mails you will then see the local newspaper from
the city your team is from. Is cool to read them the first time, though
it gets repetitive after a while.
