I sit here wondering what type of story to write, trying to make it unique. I chose to play as Bayern Munich, one of my favourite teams, very strong with the likes of Arjen Robben, Franck Ribery, Phillip Lahm and many young stars coming through. I wrote out an OP about four times, changing the style each time, but each time becoming more and more disappointed with what I have come up with. I have spent a good three hours trying to start up this story, and then I realise, Football Manager is a game, and I am the real person, I just write it about me. Not the characters, not pretending it’s real, writing my feelings, my thoughts and everything I go through with my career in this game.
At first I chose to make my characters name Stephan Beckenbauer, Franz Beckenbauer’s real life son and an U17 coach at Bayern Munich. This took a bit of research and was a bit of a waste of time when I got to this point. With Spiderman on in the background, it is a bit distracting writing this up, so sorry for any spelling or grammatical mistakes I make. My laptop is a piece of ****, so it takes a while to load up the game, but eventually it works and I can get started. Bayern as choice of club, I skip through the usual messages at the start. I get 30 million pounds to spend on players, I like that, a lot. I like to spend a bit of money, but that isn’t necessarily good. I’m going to try and change that for this game.
I spend my next hour or so arranging tactics and deciding the positions I need to improve on. The goalkeeping position and left back position are ones that look dire. Hans Jorg-**** is very old, and isn’t even that good, but could turn out to be a good coach in the future. Edson Braafheid, the left back, is also bad for a team of Bayern’s standard, but quality left back’s are hard to find in this game, so I might need to spend for the future. Also a young midfielder would help to replace van Bommel in the future.
So this is it for my first post, I hope you like the idea, but it could be a MASSIVE failure. Please comment on how I can improve and how you like this idea so far.
