Bahahaha. I made a team of as many wonderkids and star players as I could, gave em all to Arsenal. Swapped every non-league team with the Prem teams. But it was too easy...not worth it. It isn't as fun if it's not for real.

tbh, I only signed Van der Vaart, cause no one else would go to West Ham.

Edit: just remembered I signed Appiah as well, and he has been a gun from my midfield.

Haha DB, that is terrible luck.

I am in my 2nd season with Pompey, i have a pretty good squad.

I play a simple 4-4-2 which is based on counter-attacking.

Enyeama
Rafinha - Felipe - Kompany - Guilherme
Modric - Mvuemba - Banega - Capel
Briand - Defoe

Bench:
Costil
G.Johnson
Piatti
Utaka
Krancjcar

About to finish the season in 4th spot, pretty happy with that, and have made the UEFA cup final against Lyon, and the FA cup final against Chelsea, we knocked of Arsenal and ManU to get to the final.

I have Capel and Walcott on season long loans, i will try and buy Capel for next season, i lost Menez and Breno in the January window to Arsenal and Liverpool, both for 30 mil, dissapointed but still managed to get some good coin from it.

I am actually happy with these results, considering the players we were up against, such as Aguero, Messi, Rossi, Chellieni, Balatelli, Ben Arfa, Benzema, etc. I can last in the groups, but still could have had a chance of qualifying if I won my last game.

Not a bad effort DB, did you use the data editor Lolesi?

And that West Ham 7-2 Arsenal, looking at it, it was only 3-2 with 15 min to go.

ok in My Documentsthere should be a Sports Interactive folder. In that go into FM 2008, then there should be a graphics folder, or if not create one. Then you can extract your downloads in there. Then you go into your preferences, and make sure that in Display and sound, that "Always reload skin on comfirm" is ticked. Then click confirm. If ou want to change your skin, there should be a drop down meu, where you can click to change it. Click confirm, and ti should load up all your new graphics.

with the skins, there is an actual skins folder in the folder stated above. So just extract it there. then:

- Go to preferences
- Display and sound.
- At the top is window settings. There should be the word "Skin, then a drop down menu next to it in the name of what skin you are using. FM 2008 is the default. Click on this menu, then the name should appear.
- Click it then click confirm
