"Dude, my FIFA game is getting f!@#$% up! I started my career as a Head manager at Manchester United FC and FC Barcelona bid for Robin Van Persie, and they were paying only 41 million euros for it so I asked for 78 million.. And they ACCEPTED, and the player sold. Holy Shit, What do I do? F!@#$%^ Vidic wants to leave now, Madrid, Barca and Juventus is bidding for them, I mean, what's up with these Spaniards???" said my friend, who was tensed, very tensed. He lost his star player and was actually quite depressed about it. "I'll f!@# them, like real bad, I'll buy Neymar, I'l buy Pedro, I'll buy Sanchez, I'll f!@#$%^ buy Messi, I'll buy Thomas Muller." The guy was absolute nuts and frantically started buying players and was getting increasingly happy as Muller, Sanchez and Pedro joined the fine squad of Manchester United.
I realized one thing. What about the real guys out there, who can get the pink slip from the board of directors if they mess up, and lose their job. The immense pressure felt by the greatest of managers in the world, including Sir Alex, Jose Mourinho, Pep Gardiola and one of my favourites, Roberto Di Matteo, the legend who got Chelsea to win the Champions Cup but was controversially sacked from the team. Please the fans, keep a suitable ticket pricing, buy and sell players, make sure there aren't any personal problems arising between the players and the staff. It is a tough job.
A sport, which means a group of people getting together and playing with a ball. It is a reason of worry for one man, the manager. The sport is capable of making him turn to Narcotics full time and can drive him mad and give him a heart attack in the end. Cricket is no better either. Players sell themselves, there is match fixing and endorsements, there are ticket sales, leagues making profit out of the players. And so the old question remains, doesn't it? Jaago re! ;)
