Wow. After CM 96/97 and 01/02, this is my favourite footy manager game. I cant really remember much about training, but get your best headerer to mark their keeper at corners, get a good corner taker and sdet corners to 6 yard box. That will get your ball heading centre half 15-20 goals per season ha.
Get Alex Fernandex the striker in at the start. Will go to a L2 club but comfortably will score 20 goals a season in the prem.
Temptation, greets you like your naughty mate,
The one that used to get you in bother,
But one that you could never bring yourself to hate.
I think this is the version on which I regularly signed Ashley Grimes on loan from Man City for Stevenage and he and Steve Morison ran riot in the Conference.
