Based on the fact that I play football managerial games regularly. Updated on 27/12/05: Ive been receiving many emails, all of which im delighted to read asking if there’s any cheats for this game as soon as I find some cheats I will put them on Gamefaqs and on my guide. Ive added the version history to my guide so people can see what ive updated easier. Updated on 2/1/05: Been in contact with my Italian friend Nick who has been a great help adding more stuff/giving me good tips for the game witch ive added, see bottom best team in Nicks opinion. Updated on 4/1/06: New Year update, yay! I received an email from Nick who corrected some mistakes so I made some general changes and corrected those mistakes, still no cheats though I am looking, that’s all for now, be back soon. Updated on 4/4/06: Sorry I haven’t updated in awhile, been busy. I have added a FAQ section that lists some of the questions I get asked and how I reply. Hope these help you. Also my layout/ style of writing is a bit unneat at the moment but i will hopefully inprove this in the next update. Till next time..... ------------------------------------------------ Introduction Hi my name is Richard Jessett and I enjoy writing FAQ’s and reviews, even the occasional cheat when I know them. Ive submitted several player guides for Football managerial games, though this is my most commonly updated guideand ive had a lot of help from others writing this guide, all of whom are mentionedin the credits at the bottom of the FAQ. Im pleased to say that although most of the time im writing other guides for other games, this is my favourite and I believe longest FAQ, its size may not be huge but that’s because of the way its set out. I have been writing this guide for awhile now and am still updating regularly at the mo. Well I could probably right loads here but it’s the guide that people want. Enjoy! --------------------------------------- About the game This game is a managerial game in witch you can control any team in the world and manage it. This is the 2005 edition of this game.

This list is a list to all the best players in the game. ------------------------------------------------------- The best team to have (in my opinion) Here is a list set out like the other lists of players showing you the best team to have and showing you what to aim for in a team: As Goalkeepers I would have: Paul Robinson As my four main defenders I would have: Dede Jonathan Woodgate Ashley Cole Gael Clichy As my four main midfielders I would have: Wesley Sneijder Joe Cole Frank Lampard Xabi Alonso As my two main strikers/forwards I would have: Carlos Tevez Fernando Torres That selection of players in my opinion would a great team to have and with a team like that it would be very hard to lose, although you would need a vast amount of money and a lot of luck to get this sort of team. -------------------- The best team to have (in Nick, my Italian friend’s opinion) Here is another good list of the best players, however this time it’s from my Italian friend Nick, here you go: As Goalkeeper: Gianluigi Buffon As the defenders: Walter Samuel Carles Puyol Alessandro Nesta As the Midfielders Micheal Ballack Emerson Arjen Robben Ronaldinho Joaquin As the Strikers/Forwards: Adriano Andriy Shevchenko That selection is in Nick’s opinion the best team to have in CM2005, as with my selection of the best team you will need a good amount of money, though if you’re a team like Chelsea money won’t really be a factor. ------------------------------------------ FAQ I get many emails asking for tips on playing the game, asking if I know of any cheats for it etc, and many things. I don’t mind people e-mailing me but I thought I would put an FAQ section in so people don’t waste their time asking questions that have already been asked. He are some of the emails I have received and the answers I have given: ---------- Hi my name is Stuart and I was just wondering if you could give me some tips for championship manager 5 for the pc. I keep hearing you can play as 2 players but can't seem to do that is it true? Also im finding it hard to play I usually play as Portsmouth as that’s who I support. Really hope you can help thanks, Stuart. -- How I replied: -- Hi Stuart! I am pleased to have that you have read my guide and am pleased to try to help you by the best of my abilities regarding Championship manager 5. Concerning the two player question, no I have never noticed anyway to play as two players at once. I do have a slight feeling it may be possible but have never discovered the way in which two players at once is achieved. I will look for the two managers at once mode and will inform you if I am successful. Now for tips about Portsmouth, they are not my first choice of team, but they are an interesting team to say the least. If you are having problems with the clubs financial status then I would recommend you try a handy trick I use. My trick is to look around other clubs teams and find good players whose contracts are running out soon. The moment their contract runs out in the next six months you have the option to offer them a contract and will not have to pay the club anything. This is a good tactic for getting players cheap. If you are having problems on the match side of things then i would recommend sticking to the good old 4-4-2 formation. Two attackers, four midfielders and four defenders. Also make sure you always put the fittest players on the pitch. If a player’s fitness is about 0-89% do not play him. Just stick him on the bench and if necessary bring him on at half time as a sub. If you are having problems handling the team make sure you use the members of staff available to you at the club. Your assistant manager will help in picking player selections for matches, playing friendly matches and all sorts of other helpful stuff. -- More Q&As are on the way people! ---------------------------------------------- Credits There is some people id like to thanks for making my guide a good guide, helping me out on the guide and giving me good tips for the game, here they are in no particular order: CjayC, for creating Gamefaqs and having a great website host my guide, thanks CjayC luciferNICK79, my Italian friend for emailing me and giving me good tips for my guide and gaming experience, thanks Nick All the people who have emailed me about cheats, even though I don’t currently know any cheats im always happy to read peoples emails, thank you Anybody who’s emailed me, I read all my emails near daily and reply to them all, unless I can’t understand them, the more people who email me the happier I become, thanks e-mailers My brother, for helping me out with the best players in the game, thanks bro Myself, for writing the guide, but im not going to boast myself up, Yay I win! -------------------------------------------------
