This sounds like a random question and tbh it probs is but has anyone here ever tried managing in the Danish/Norweigan leagues?, im tempted to have a go there with someone like Aalborg/Rosenborg/Valerenga etc.

I did, on I think the 2006 version. Had a very succesful time with Valerenga. It was funny, I used to come top of the league, Rosenberg bought my top players for top money (well, top money for that league) and I bought cheaper replacements from the rest of the Norwegian leagues and still kept winning the league. :lol:

3rd season, was progressing nicely with Man City, but got impatient as I want to win most things now not in 5/6 years time.

I've just won the premierleague season and the amount of players that now want to play for me is staggering. Bojan, Messi etc won't come though, so I think i will need to win the Championsleague for that to happen. Just bought Rooney and Ronaldo for 82 million each. If I don't win the european cup at least 2/3 times now, it'll be disaster. Augero and Rooney upfront. Ronaldo, dos santos, Wiltshire (going to have to be a sub now), jankovic? and Veloso (dm) in Midfield. Some of my expensive youngsters are progressing well and getting to wonderkid status now, and nearly all those are English.

Maybe I shouldn't have bought Rooney and Ronaldo, but I just was never going to win the european cup with 19year olds (hence why it would have took me around 6 years for me to win it I reckon).

Another thing that was interesting was that when I made the 2 big signings, I was 35 in the red and the chairman invested another 100 million into the club. 8)

Im into my 3rd season now (Man City)

Ive got 1.25m to spend :cry:

Started off ok but had Euopean Qualifiers etc etc so just rode along in the prem quite steadily.

Then it all kicked off when I beat Chelsea 3-0 at home to spark a brilliant rwinning streak which has seen me go from 12th to 4th!

Just need to win Euro cup or get CL
