FM 25 DEVELOPMENT UPDATE
Coulthard's Jaw replied to OmnissiahMasteR's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
What -
Yeah the support footballers get now is just night and day compared to back then. Even Beckham's era it's insane what he had to go through.
-
Yes Gazza would have been that as well if he hadn't imploded on the pitch and off it. Where as Bellingham just has that mentality to succeed. You don't see it very often.
-
How many England players have genuinely been in the group of *the* best in the world, or close to that level? I think Bellingham is possibly already at that level and he could be at that level for years. Proper superstar.
-
The England split stuff is from the 2000s, the Venables/Hoddle tournaments had a really good team spirit by all accounts.
-
I think so yeah, he's going to be a star player at Real for as many years as he wants. I'm actually not sure about saying more so because I don't know if that's going to be better than what Rooney was, but it's definitely different in a way we haven't seen.
-
Bellingham is going to something we haven't quite seen in the England team before, better get used to it.
-
The Euro 96/World Cup 98 squads were exceptional.
-
Kane is an all time legend, so obviously there is going to be a drop off, but other nations have had similar issues and managed to work around it. If you have enough quality in other areas you can cope.

I think Southgate is a victim of his own success isn't he? 18 and 21 there was a novelty to getting to where we got in the tournaments and filling out the wallchart right to the end was really fun. The last two tournaments have been really good in their own ways but we've seen it all before so you don't get that thrill again. I agree with you, in the not too distant future we will appreciate what a great job Southgate did. Maybe I'm hanging out in the wrong places because I'm not really seeing the anger towards Southgate, think most people know how great he is.
-
Genuinely if a couple of penalty shootouts go the other way we're talking about the 90s as a golden period for English football and how Gareth was yet another manager to fail to live up to it.
-
I know it's Ronay so we shouldn't expect much but I do find these takes the worst The Southgate era has been amazing, doesn't mean you have to trash previous good England teams and managers. Both can be good!

Bumflares for all
-
We're at home, it's coming home.
-
Even ignoring the increase in knockout games, he's won 3 quarter finals and 2 semi finals which puts him up there with most international managers in history.
-
I don't want to bring up old arguments but Sven was quite an unlucky international manager. Had to deal with a lot of injuries to key players.
-
Capello was a bad fit. Eriksson was really good!
-
I think he's a legend but this is the right decision. 2 Euros and 2 World Cups and he had a shot at winning them all.
-
He's gone
-
Pathetic little article imo
-
Even if Henderson hadn't blown his career up, he could get injured at any time. The lack of a plan B just extraordinary tbh.
-
It's not "England" though, it's the manager/head coach you put in charge. I guess if the FA mess up the next appointment nothing will change, but it's not inevitable.
-
Has Stones lost some pace? Him and Walker defending that right hand side was painful viewing at times.
-
PL game and if nothing else you're throwing it short to Saka there without thinking.
