***** The Official Fifa 12 Thread *****

My mummy checks my friendslist.

Nah I dunno. Just keep people on who I know IRL really and I only have about 30 friends.

he is 6'2 so he should be getting on the end of crosses, unless he is playing against 6'4 and above CB's.

but if you want a ST to get on the end of crosses from the EPL, you won't get better than Dzeko, he is 6'4 and has the "power header" trait, which means when he connects properly, it goes in as it it has been volleyed into the net.

He always seems to be behind the defender when I cross it so then the defender heads away. Where as hernandez makes the run in front of the defender and heads it in.


Should I be crossing longer so drogba has to move backwards to get on the end of the long cross which is needed to avoid the defender in front of him?

Hope that makes sense!

could be Hernandez has better positioning or something along those lines, maybe better vision or tactical awareness.

I would say try Dzeko out, if it's headers you are after, but Dzeko also has a beast of a Finesse shot and is pretty much well rounded tbh, you will be surprised how good he is for so little coin. He isn't very fast though, he is average in the pace department, not slow, not fast, just average, so if he's through on goal he won't be caught, but don't expect him to outrun people for fun.

I really want to try Drogba out, but i really do find the one stat which is the most untruthful is the heading stat, I tried IF Adebayor who is better than Dzeko at everything and he is awful in comparison.

my front 4 are all man city, in fact i think i have mainly a city squad, the same thing in my Serie A team, it's all mainly AC Milan.

Dzeko -- IF Balotelli

IF Johnson -- Nasri

Essien -- Toure

Enrique -- Toure -- Kompany -- IF Johnson (just using him until his price maxes out, will get Richards as a replacement)

Cech


so i will have 8 city players in my EPL team when Johnson goes, i don't think i can improve the above team for my style of play, it is the best it can be, until IF's come out.

i dont know if 11 chemistry makes any difference, but i feel it does, like i said earlier Balotelli sometimes automatically, beats defenders, i dont know how, he just does a shimmy past them.


Ibra -- Pato

Di Natale -- Robhino

Vidal -- Cambiasso

Taiwo -- Silva -- Lucio -- Maicon

Stek

thinking of getting IF Boateng for Vidal which basically means 6 AC Milan players in my Serie A team.

i think this proves that AC Milan and City are the best teams in their respective leagues.
 
just looked an Boateng's price has risen to over 80K for his IF, lol no way am i paying that for a CDM when Vidal does a great job for less than 2K, hopefully SIF Boateng comes out in the future or a TOTY and IF Boateng drops to 20K.
 
:eek: nevah!

Right, I've done one question of 4, assignmnet is in for 12 tomorrow and I can't do any of the last 3 questions. All I want to do is build my team, Struggle Bus Population: Stewart :(
 
Had Hernandez in this team:


Struggled scoring so put Dzeko in instead of him and it works much better. Dzeko drops into almost a CF role to get the ball from the CMs and one-two pass to either wingers and he's away and gets into his ST position. His power shots are beastly. Scored 2 crackers with him in the 2 games he's played. Scored 4 goals in a game too.

One thing I found is that he doesn't seem to like running into the box to header for me, he's always just a bit outside of the 18 yard box, might be because Nani and Young are so fast he doesn't have time to get into the box.
 
Think im gona try build a whole AC Milan team, they are just unbelievably strong, im winning about 80% of games with them, online in H2H seasons and offline vs friends, think they suit me best. Just wondering how im ever gonna be able to afford Ibrahimovic :( Im finding him nearly as fun to play with as Ronaldo!
