Introduction
I was introduced to football manager games in the late 90s, thanks to the legendary, green-covered Championship Manager 97/98 game.
After that, with minor or major omissions, I played almost every game in the series, so I would call myself a routine, but by no means a professional player.
I have been a football fan since I was a child, as a Hungarian my favorite team is Újpest, but the first and most important football experience of my childhood was the 1986 World Cup, where the Argentine national team led by Maradona won their second world title. The Argentine national team is still dear to my heart, as we can say that I have followed their performance to this day. At first, Caniggia, then Batistuta were my favorite strikers, and then of course, Messi's play amazed me.

I also bought FM26, but due to its unmanageability, I returned to the much more stable and enjoyable FM2024, in my opinion, where I will start a long-term career in Argentina with VÉLEZ SARSFIELD.

The South American leagues were completely unknown to me, but I obviously looked into the Argentine championship and international cup series before starting the rescue.

I chose Vélez because they have an incredibly good youth team, they are full of young talents, and they are currently behind the top teams, meaning that a good and successful performance in the domestic competition series in the first round will also pose challenges.​
