Both would be great, but I'm with Bahnzo on this. I think it'll be like NHL 09's complete with promotion/relegation. OS SC anyone? (Yeah, S for soccer) We can finally show these euros we do know s-o-c-c-e-r.

Hope there's still more news to come and some answers for our MM ?'s.

That's excellent to hear that you showed them. I'm not even specifically referring to fatigue though, I'm talking about how a team can make a big signing in MM on the transfer market and not even put the guy into their lineup despite him being superior player than who they already have at the position.

I don't think a lot of us are necessarily clamoring for a complete overhaul of MM mode, it would just be nice if the cpu altered their lineup, and even nicer if fatigue was better implemented. But I would certainly not be unhappy with just the first thing I mentioned.

Maybe I should have tried to go... you lost 3-0 to Spurs?! If everything else wasn't impressive, I'd be mad at you.

Thanks for the great impressions.

5-1 we did in real life what is so impossible.
Great stuff this thing is all over the net on forums for Fifa fans and I thank you for your efforts.

You had your best 11 out there and we had subs playing for the most part.

Will there be anymore info on this in the upcoming days of what other features there may be? Also can you tell us if they maybe added a little to MM?

The OS Community rep is putting in a full day today and I believe a half day tomorrow. So, yes, there should be more info/impressions on the way. However, from the sound of things thus far, manager mode has not received much attention...

PS - I don't think pictures/graphics are allowed in your signature. And no, I'm not just saying that because I'm a gooner...

I think that a promotion/relegation system would be expecting too much for the first year, if they do decide to setup a league similar to NHL's EASHL. But just a single league should suffice, for now. I think it would be great to build a player and join teams (just like in NHL). To me, that's the only logical online surprise that could happen (at least, that's all I could think of).

Any impressions of long free kicks feeling more realistic?

In previous iterations free kicks where a shot on goal was not realistic felt pretty useless in that players did not come forward in numbers and line up to make runs for headers in the box.

Also will we see more media coming out on the internet after this community event?

Great info so far, thanks for reporting.
