quote YidArmy617

Just finished OCE Nations Cup. Was knocked out in the group stage although to be fair I did have New Zealand in my group.

Who are you playing as?

Good luck with that LOL.

My first fixture as Venezuela coach and this is my starting lineup, speak up if any of you have heard of any of these;


                                        Renny Vega

   Johnny Mirabal*    Oswaldo Vizcarrondo        Jose Manuel Velazquez     Jose Luis Granados

                         Franklin Lucena          Javier Campos*

César Gonzalez                    Marcos Javier Navas*                 Ángel Chourio

I got Mali to the ANC and have an easy Group with Equatorial Guinea, Algeria and Namibia. In my last friendly though I was awful and lost to Guinea 7-2!!!

In the WC I got Malawi, Botswana and Ghana so It will be though to go through. 

The most frustrating thing is that since I announced my squad for the ANC 6(!!!) players got injured...ffs SI!!!

Jabba Overkill I'm not going to manage Latvia mate so could you change that, ATM I'm unsure on whether to be Cook Islands(On one of the old FM's got them to WC) or Guinea.

Just post the team you'll manage once you decide and I'll change it then. Under my name i still have Malaysia although I gave them up... 


ANC Results:
vs Equatorial Guinea 2-0
vs Algeria 1-1
vs Namibia 3-1

Got second place on GD with Algeria and now play against Gabon. hopefully I'll go trough to the semis...

Edit:
Spoiler:vs Gabon


Amazing game! The most hilarious thing i have even seen on FM was Gabon's Enzowi committed 3 penalties!

Edit2: 
I honestly expected to get crashed against Ghana but we were incredible in the second half!
Spoiler:vs Ghana


On to the final we go!


Last-Edit-I-promise:
Lost to Ivory Coast 3-0. Disappointed not to win but it was expected...Solid performance by the team throughout the ANC though.

I also rejected an offer from Nigeria...

Jabba Overkill Unlucky mate you staying on with them?

Im going to manage Cook Islands, not sure how long for though,

Yeah but it's going to be tough to knockout Ghana in the qualifiers. You'd think that in the first round I'd be the best team in the group...
