Default Is Winning Cups With England Too Easy?

i've been playing fm08 (like most of you) and have stopped being England, because its just to easy. You could put David James up front and still win games. Now im Northern Irish, but after 20 years of in game time, the best i'd done is got them to the Euro Semi's . Which is realistic in my views, and really made my day .But baring in mind, recent England sides have qualified so easy for European Championships *cough* russia. Why is it just so easy to win as England?

i must be the only one not to win with england

Only played one qualifying and WC, qualified easily but lost to Spain 3-1 in the quarters (shocking).

Robinson scored an own goal

I won the world cup with them in 2010, but they got knocked out early in the Euros in 2012 (I wasn't managing them). They are really good at the start of the game but now Im in 2013, they are not good at all.

PS Im Brazil manager now

I always go out in the quarters with england, then usually get sacked for reaching the qtrs just like the board asked.. :thdn:

Funnily enough, i always get knocked out by one of my club players.

Imo Spain is pretty easy to win trophies with, i was always pretty much garunteed final/champions each tourney.

I've never won anything with england. But if you're a good enough manager to take N.Ireland to the semis, then you really should be winning stuff easily with england.

Yep, your own club players allwyas stick the boot into you. I lost in the 2010 final due to Fabregas and Villa each netting two. I lost 4-3 with Rooney and Walcott getting my goals between them.

So the future looked bright for AFC with 7 goals in the WC final by AFC players

In my current game I'm doing really well with Arsenal after starting with Sheff Wed but I decided to take the England job for the 2014 world cup qualifications and after 3 out of the 6 games I decided to resign. Steve Bruce took over and has won all 3 of his games 3-0
