I didn't get 08 as i was too far ahead on 07 to want to give it up. However the new match engine appealed (although it turned out it wouldnt work for me) and my 07 disc broke so playing 09 and enjoying it. So yes i suppose is the answer.

IMO, no. I don't really no why, but i can't seem to get into a game and stick at, seem to get bored really easy. On 08, had a few different games were i went a good few years, i did a season with City at the start on 09, 2 seasons, got bored then went off it, then never really got into another game as of yet.

With Wigan I won my first game Vs Bolton 1-0 with Kilbane scoring then I lost 4-0 to Man Utd. I tried to attack playing 4-3-1-2 but I got butchered. Will resort to usual 4-4-2 for future games with Tranmere next in the cup.

Can anyone recomend a left back that they have signed who isnt vastly expensive?

I've got Erik Edman who was already at Wigan but has been performing well. You could probably get him for £700k - £1million

Which team are you?

I'm playing as Huddersfield on a new game (I got bored) and after rejecting about 10 other jobs through the season (I set my status to former International footballer. for Hungary ) I've just been told that chairman Ken Davy would like to step down, and that apparantly an Israeli business tycoon is set to give me a £31 million transfer budget.

Depending on how much money you have, and what season you're in, but Fabian Monzon is one of the best left backs on the game IMO, and he's available for around £5m if Betis don't sign him.

Armand Traore is available on the cheap, too, and if you're in the first season, Emiliano Insua can be signed on loan.
