Mattyboy89 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 No, I don't think this would be a good idea. Otherwise it would be called Player Football Manager 2010. Lol In fifa 10 u can play manager mode and obviously controll the players. Thats closer to player manager as u can be Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blanchflower1 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 No, this is definitely not a good idea. If you want to do this, buy FIFA 2010! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanBRFC Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I can see how this can work, Its not exactly the best idea but it could work as their are some managers who play as well but generally in the lower leagues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Aja Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Seeing as you wouldn't actually be able to control 'yourself' when out on the pitch, it's a daft non-starter of an idea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

celebritykiller Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Nope, would only work very low down the leagues. How many player managers are there % wise? And how long do they last before retiring to become full-time managers? Probably not worth the work on it tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divide Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 add yourself as a player, then sign yourself? that could be an option Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sean Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Rather than shoot you down so quickly; (OP) why don't you describe how you think this might look? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 It could be sensibly implemented. On the pitch you'd just be another player following the manager's (your) instructions. Not so far-fetched IMHO. divide - that wouldn't work if a club made an offer for 'you' and the chairman accepted! Or 'you' could fall out with the 'manager' and demand a move away.

cliff7197 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Nope to this. Of course it could in theory be implemented, but it's not something I'd be interested in and it's not something I'd want development time spent on. Spend it on making the management side even better instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOP_007 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Kevin Keegan's Player Manager - best game on the SNES. Worked a treat in that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abs_UK Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I am just wondering how many people who have disagreed with this idea, would use it if it was implemented into the game? I cant say I will or will not, it would be another option for people who may want to use it or try it. Now should it be implemented, why not its part of football management, but is it worth adding on? How would it improve the general game play? How will the relationship worl between you and your aquad? owners? fans etc.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaTToo7 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I would surely agree with this idea.. since a lot of features could be implemented such as: having a girlfriend would affect your player's relationship with the media, sponsors, the boss and your girlfriend.. a gift's system could be implemented to buy your virtual girlfriend a gift to increase the relationship status. Other ideas could easily be seen too. Even if this idea would be implemented without taking control of one player but just him play, you would need to take decisions if you were in his position and see the reaction of the media etc...

Suge Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I don't think it would work. For a start, you'd have to start yourself as a 20 yeard old manager to get any long-term play out of the thing. I still remember Player Manager by Anco with my old joystick. Good times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGLiverpool Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I can see where the idea comes from, but it probably wouldn't be too well liked, and would get a no from me. Only workaround would be to create yourself as a player in the team, then manage them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3RBY4L!F3 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 What would happen lets say if you were a player manager for your chosen club, and then some other club offered ridiculous amounts of money for you, that was too good to turn down, what would happen then? you could manage club x and play for club y.

Guvnorconroy Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 It could be quite handy for lower league teams who are short of squad players. You could only play yourself if you really need to because of injuries, etc. You wouldn't need to risk making another player unhappy because he's not getting a game.
