Just wondering how people find it managing international teams?

I managed Nigeria after they had a poor African Nations and after two years i won them the tournament in 2010. Has anyone else manged on the International scene?

It's okay, I took over Ghana after the African Nations Cup and managed to get them to the world cup but couldn't be arsed with the game anymore.

I find it annoying that the fans don't like you when you've only just taken over the team because they had a poor tournament. It's not my fault!

I had Argentina just b4 the world cup (2010) and went on to win it (the final was a poor 1-0 against Italy) winning a world cup did wonders for my prestige, I got offers from Roma, A.C Milan and Barcelona (the board had finally got some sense into them to fire Rijkaard)

I don't dare enter the international fold at the moment, I'm having too much fun being a club manager tbh... Maybe later on in my career.

That's purely because there is less to do as in club management - I only ever did international management on FM whilst in a club job.

I dunno why anyone would start a FM game only to do international management...

In FM 07 I disliked national management because it interfered with club management.

If I lost a club match before going into national management it would piss me off and affect national game - and I think that is why I staying out of International management thus far...

or you could manage a club and a national team at the same time

if you die in an elevator, be sure to push the UP button.

when i manage a club, i conceder the national team just a bonus, a chance to play at the european championship ant world cup.
my personal opinion is that its fun to manage a club and a national team at the same time

if you die in an elevator, be sure to push the UP button.
