ok, SIF Messi is kinda not worth 2.9 million but is so much fun playing with.

His passing is the best thing about SIF Messi imo.

I'm in a similar boat, Rooney is amazing but I have to compromise in other areas and it suxx

Skill moves are easy. Just hold circle, tap x and move the analogue stick. Can do this while holding l2 or not.

I like to do the chop a lot. Just run a defender down the line then chop and away you go.

That's just one skill move.

I find doing the rabona fake works quite well and it's great seeing people sliding all over the place trying to stop it.

I wanted to build a Man Utd team but the centre mids are quite poor, I want to have Cleverley and Fletcher in the middle but 40k for Cleverley.

 

[Robert1986]

40k for Cleverley.

The guy that price fixed him posts on the fifa forums. He bragged about price fixing him and got ripped apart.

Fletcher - Anderson/Carrick aint half bad. Could always put Rooney in mid and have Welbeck/Chico upfront?... or Put Jones in CM? Surely EA will release a CDM of him soon enough?

 

[Andybtsn]

Well I was deciding to build a Russian or French league team and decided to go with the Russian alternative, should be fun. Squad depth poor but starting 11 is good.

 

[Stewy]

I've got Fletcher and Carrick as DMs in 4-2-3-1 and they work fine, Fletcher is really good on this game anyway and Carrick has really high tactical positioning or whatever it's called so he's really good as well.

Will try and grab a cheap Evra tonight I think then I'm pretty much done.

By Russian league do you mean speed-whoring little ****s?

You can get 3 fowards all with 90+pace in a lw-st-rw set up.

Kinda like mine

90-97-91

 

[Robert1986]

Thinking of making a team with the slowest players in the game. I saw a player with 39 pace but can't remember who it was.

Think it was Van Buyten. Also think I saw one with 24 pace.

For the lulz.

 

[Stewy]

Mertesacker will surely make an appearance then?

Make a small team, Piatti, Buananotte etc.

 

[Biz.Kid09]

Van Buyten has like 29 pace


I have done a bit of trading and actually made some coins!

I have 38k for a new team to use alongside my Russian one. Any suggestions? i have never been brazil but i dont think my budget will stretch?

I do have Welliton and R.Carlos i can use though in a 4-2-2-2 so if that helps

 

[Robert1986]

Ronaldinho is cheap and has a crazy good left foot.

 

[Bunko]

Tardelli, Vagner Love, Nilmar, Ramires & Hernanes were all in my Brazil team and cheap.

 

[Macky]

Omg. Cisse and Lukaku up front is insane.

 

[bigjonnyauk]

right most of my team is done i only had 154k and have managed to get this team so far

valdes
abidal
puyol
pepe
ramos
if valero
alonso
busquets
reyes
pedro
torres


i did have sanchez but sold him as hes difficult to link up with mf and torres

think now i just want fabregas in the middle cm role as ill never be able to afford xavi or iniesta

 

[Andybtsn]

Ronaldinho is cheap and has a crazy good left foot.

Right foot

 

[Macky]

Rob might have meant his weak foot (left).

Who's the best defensive midfielder in Ligue 1? I quickly threw a team together with my spare cash earlier and picked up the dude from Toulouse, the quick black guy, Sissoko is it? Gonna log into the web app in a sec and start buying a few players for my squad. Supposed to be doing work but I've worked my ass off for the past 2 and a half hours and virtually everything is done.

 

[Psycho Sonny]

Silva maybe good but is he 90k good though? I found Chiellini to be solid so far, has handled every loft ball with ease, I'm ok at defending so as long as my CB are in the 70's for pace I'm fine.

It's good to see that you no longer base everything on stats though. I guess Julio Cesar has made you realise that?

stats and height matter for a keeper, thats why cesar sucks, he is too small.

ive always used Fabio for my Brazil team and Stek for my Serie A

Moussa Sissoko without a doubt. I like to pair him up with Lass Diarra from BBVA however he's been poor last few games so might look for a Ligue 1 replacement for Lass.

Sissokho and M'Vila
