    If you're wanting one for the 360, the latest and best is Football Manager 2008.

    There is Football Manager 2010 on the pc though which would be a far better option.

    I think game developers were in agreement that FM games are meant for PC. :)

    That is a possibility...

    Has to be played on a laptop while sitting in front of the TV watching boxsets of the Wire!!

    The xbox version was ok but youreally miss the mouse for navigation.

    I couldn't possibly play Football Manager on the console. The mouse is a must. I played FM 2005 (I think it was the first FM after Championship Manager 4?) and loved it, haven't really done much with any of the new ones until FM10.

    It really is excellent though. I have a first season with Norwich sitting around for the last 2 or 3 months, where I'm top of League One with a few games to go. I managed to sign some really good players on frees, Campbell, Ball, Lauren, Mills, Smolarek.

    The sign on frees and wages offered mightn't have been such a wise choice though.

    Right ive dusted down the laptop and invested in pc version of football manager 2010. Briefly played it last night. Its extremely detailed and its gona take a while to get fully used to it. I have bypassed by belovit man utd and have taken the reigns from roy to manage ipswich for the season. not much money available however I did sneak richie de laet from manu. Just played the one match in which we destroyed the reserve team 5 nil. Promotion will be tough however! Will update my progress throughout the season!
