Does anyone play Football Manager?

    Are there any fans of this masterpiece here? I mean, this is probably the best game I've ever played and I'm surprised that I found it in 2012. A friend of mine recommended to me and when i started playing, I spent at least 7-8 hours in front of the computer. It was so addictive! However, I'm quite disappointed with Football Manager 2013. Sports Interactive barely changed the match engine and they decided that the good old interface had to be changed... Not only this, but the game still occasionally crashes despite all the patches and fixes which SI released. So, are you a Football Manager player and which team do you play with? What are your achievements in the game and how long have you been at your club? Do you have a favorite strategy and how do you approach derbies and matches with weaker teams? Screenshots are welcome too! I'm currently playing with my favorite Bulgarian team, Lokomotiv Plovdiv, and I'm in year 2022. I am dominating the domestic league and cup, but I still can't get farther than the 1/2 finals in the Champions League. My favorite tactic is 4-1-3-2 with the following roles:
    4 Defenders: FB Automatic - CD Defend - CD Defend - FB Automatic
    1 Midfielder: Box To Box Automatic
    3 Attacking Midfielders: LAM Supporting Winger - CAM Supporting Advanced Playmaker - RAM Attacking Winger
    2 Forwards: Left Attacking Poacher - Right Attacking Deep-Lying Forward

    i am to still playing 2012 version, i prefer it.
    interesting formation you are playing very attacking, do you play that in the champs league as well?
    i normally play 4-3-2-1 and look to press teams and hold onto the ball. ( 3 cms, 2 inside forwards and a poacher ) dont really score a great deal but normally look for 1-0 win...or any win!!!
