Cheers for that guys, looks like i need to make a few changes then. I'll repost once i've updated the team. Btw do any of you guys play on ps3?

Im xbox sorry dude

Sorry dude, he had already sold when I got home from work!

Might consider putting the proceeds from Iniesta & Abidal towards some EPL meat!

Like you would have done it anyways.

Think you should. TOTY Berba and Tevez look a beast
 
3-1, 11-0, 6-5 and 5-1. :D

First game was alright. Second game I was all over him, surprised he didn't quit earlier. The third game was immense, I played with my reserve squad (Nasri/Reina/Reyes/Carvalho/Young) and he had a bunch of IFs, one of which was Kaka and Aguero, he went 4-0 up and I managed to fight back to 4-4, he scored a 5th in extra time, and I managed to pull two back with the winning goal being a long shot from Reyes which Cesar palmed into the post and into the net. :D Final game started off quite close, but I just piled on the pressure and passing as usual and smashed them home.

Feels nice to win. :D

It should be noted that Ronaldo scored 10 goals across those games. :D Two from freekicks.

I actually quite dislike this game now. :(

I just find it highly frustrating. I bet I play an hour or so a day and I'm just not improving. I've won about 2 games in 10 online recently. Won 1 in 4 tonight - the 1 win against a truly awful side that I should have beat.

If I play a side of equal quality to mine, it's not so bad but I still end up losing to someone who can just keep the ball with a man better than me.

The last game I played was an all IF Brazillian side, with Messi, Kaka and Ronaldo on the bench. They just knocked me about for strength, outpaced me to every ball. I just wanted to ragequit and lost 3-0.

I can't hold on to the ball unless I'm knocking it around my def/mid. The L2 skill/modifier thing makes no sense to me. I don't have a clue when to use a skill to take on a man and I find if I'm on a run, I can't seem to burn past someone even with Navas (90 pace fgs). My passes have no power and the ball doesn't seem to go where I tell it to at all. I can see runs, I can make players make the runs but I can't actually get the damn ball to them. It makes me wish I was playing Pro on the Wii where I can just point where I want everyone to bloody go!

Are there any decent guides or vids or anything anyone can show/link me?

Cheers :(

/sulks off.

Watch some Road to Glory's on YouTube. They have some good tips normally.
Try Sam5000, HeyGuysBobbyHere, SmallishBeans, Joshflip1981. All good players.

Full. Applied team morale because I knew it could effect it. :/

Thanks. I've just played 2 more games. First against a crap player who won on penalties. Again, just couldn't make any chances. Second game I got destroyed by a show-off **** with Messi, Kaka, Villa etc...

The disc is out now in favour of Mortal Kombat. Seriously considering rage-selling my 3 squads.
 
Take a break from it.

The more agitated I am the worse I play. Have a break and then go back to it and you seem to improve
 
I just picked up IF Isla (?) the RM for Udinese, bought him for 3K and I'm going to play him at RB with dark green boot. His DEF is 85 or so and he's got good pace and passing so he should fit in pretty well there, I was also trying to get a cheap Montolivo for my midfield but I've only got 7K left and some dude took the bidding up to 9K so I turned it off. :p

Can't afford anyone now until RVP, Nasri etc all sell. They're all 4-3-3 so hopefully someone will buy them at a respectable price sooner rather than later. I always hate going days without selling things and then raging, putting them up at 150 start and making a big loss. :(
 
:mad: :mad: :mad:

I'm so frustrated right now. I got to the final of the 4,000 coin cup fairly easily, beat every team pretty comfortably, I get to the final and the stadium loads up, it's raining... I think oh don't worry it'll be fine, oh no. Ohhhhhhhhh no. What the **** were EA thinking when they were designing the weather and how the players react to it? What a ****ing crock of ****.

My players couldn't pass, they were all slow as hell, they couldn't shoot straight, they couldn't run onto through balls because the ball goes at the speed of light whereas the players are like running through tar. What a pile of ****, he won 5-3 in extra time and I knew EXACTLY how his goals would happen before he even scored them. I actually said to myself that it'd be the ****ing same as it always is when it rains in this game. Either a through ball which his forward gets onto and my defenders just decide to run shoulder to shoulder and make absolutely no attempt to get in front and get the ball, OR it'll be one of the ones were my defender tackles but the ball bounces off the attacking player during the tackle and he just gets an easy tap in. :/

4 of his goals were like that, and the 5th was a cut back which I'm not really bothered about. Total ****ing **** take, if people beat me simply because they're better then that's fine, and I'll usually have picked something up from the experience, but to lose due to a pathetic gameplay mechanic is just frustrating as ****.
 
So he scored 4 goals with through balls, yet you claim the weather stops you from doing the same?

Playing in the rain is fine and is the same for both players, if you rely on chipped through balls then you might need to adapt your tactics, or maybe you just lost to the better player :)
