Might have to sell SIF Messi to fund IF Fabregas and IF Sanchez.
 
I like Fab. Bring him on for tired Xavi in the 70th minute. Fab has a really good shot on him too.

I think Valdes should get an IF. Clean sheet at home all season.
 
I'm confused now, not sure which team/formation/league to go for. When I had a silver team I was beating absolutely everyone, probably due to the handicap but it still felt awesome destroying teams that cost hundreds of thousands worth. This Ligue 1 team look great on paper but they just play like turd. :(

If stats mattered that much then Cesar would be the best GK for Brazil and Fabio is only 2cm taller than Cesar so not that much difference.

You seem to be contradicting yourself a bit as well :p :

all the Brazilian keepers in the game are crap, it's just that Fabio, Cesar, and Helton are the top 3 of a seriously bad bunch of keepers.

Now when you have dog turd to choose from, those 3 are decent. But nowhere near as good as other keepers in the game.

Fabio is amazing for dealing with outside the box shots, corners and free kicks.

Cesar is amazing for dealing with close up shots and that seems to be it.

Never tried Helton but ive played against him and he was just slightly worse than Fabio in my eyes.

So if your good at defending Fabio would be the best keeper, if your crap at defending, Cesar or Helton. But seriously all 3 of them are turd compared with other keepers in the game, but if you want a Brazil team, what's all you have to choose from really.

Height makes a huge difference to keepers, the reason why 83 Hart can pull of some ridiculous saves, but Cech and Stek are a lot better than him because they have a higher OVR and the same height (Stek is 1 inch taller).

Casillas is so good because of his stats.

OVR matters for a keeper as well as height.

I found Cesar to be crap when i used him because im good at defending, therefore i prefer Fabio in a Brazil team, Cesar though is much better if your let the opposing player into your box constantly.

So for Brazil i rate them as

Fabio > Helton > Cesar > everyone else

For Serie A i rate them as

Stek > Buffon > De Sanctis > everyone else

Serie A has a lot more talent keeping wise, than Brazil does, so if your building a Brazil team take a look at Cesar if your crap at defending, if your building a Serie A team, stay away. But he is one of the top 3 of a seriously bad bunch of brazilian keepers due to his stats.

Casillas is the only keeper under 6'2 that is worth buying imo, because his stats make up for the height. Cesar's stats are too crap to make up for the height in the same way but they still make him good for dealing with some types of ****, but he is awful for corner's, i brought him out once for a corner the ball was 5 yards away from him, and some midget managed to out jump his hand, he then fumbled another attempt and mistimed another.

Therefore small keepers are crap for defending corners if you like bringing the keeper out.

Height and Stats both matter, but it does also depend on which Stats are good and how good they are compared to the height of the player.

so if your talking about just brazilian keepers then Cesar is good, if your talking about all keepers in the game, then he is crap, it does depend on what your looking at.

They seriously do need to bring out an IF brazilian keeper.

what is your team? and what is your budget.

SIF Giroud is pants btw, get rid
 
Woohoo IF Adey is gone, made a small profit too of a 3K ish.

now i have a huge dilemma

Pato -- Cisse

Di Natale -- Robhino

Vidal -- Cambiasso

Taiwo -- Silva -- Lucio -- Maicon

Stek


i can get Ibra up front and stick pato on the right and use Cisse as a sub

or i can get IF Boateng for Vidal (don't really think he will play any better tbh, and is much better suited to a CF position just behind 2 strikers)

or SIF Ba for IF Balotelli


if i get Ibra, i can only get him, but i can probably get both IF Boateng and SIF Ba if i dont, but i dont think they will be any better than what i currently have, so Ibrahimovic is looking like the best option currently.

someone convince me Ibra is worth 120K (ps3 prices :mad:)

I bought Ibra for like 80k. Got lucky. His standing shot power an accuracy is insane. Just places the ball into the top corner.

just got one for 112K :mad:

SIF Ba is miles better than IF Balotelli, I've had both and it's not even close.

oh i forgot i had a ton of stuff to sell in my watch list, will look into SIF Ba.

gtg out for the day, need to get ready, so i haven't had a chance to use Ibra, will do tonight.

What exactly is it that makes SIF Ba good? i did message you when we played but you never replied lol.

IF Balotelli has been a beast for me, SIF Ba has much worse dribbling, so i think he wont be as good for turning, etc but much better in a straight line.

Just had someone quit after I went 1-0 up in 3 minutes, bit odd to want a loss and lower your DNF when you have the whole game ahead of you still :confused:
 
Managed to get Cavani last night in a pack so debating whether to get suarez and link them together?

Any body played with suarez?

Either that or sell him on I can finally get Ribery on the left since he can link with Nasri and Evra :D

Opinions people?
