I've never had the last on Gackt, I've never had a player so far offside and given on? You sure your full-back wasn't playing the striker onside?

It does happen. I played a through ball and Chicharito was a good half metre offside and no offside was given.

Very sure. I was as surprised as you are. Miles away from my defenders. They wasn't even moving when he received the ball either. :/

It's not just that. I've had plenty of decisions where the guy is obviously offside but the flag has stayed down. Very weird.

Next time it happens get a highlight and check the ree view out. You'd be surprised to see they might actually be onside! If not, upload it :)
 
I don't even know what to say about the referees now. They're getting progressively worse for me today. Just had several penalty decisions denied, calling the end of the half when I'm pretty much through on goal, 1 minute of stoppage time despite there being about 3 or 4 goals. Pathetic.

Yep, that's right, give them a freekick because I got the ball cleanly and was through on goal.

Ok took some advice on my team and now have as follows.

------------Diego Lopez------------
Iraola - Luis Perea - Pepe - Marcelo
----------- Mascherano ------------
----Reyes -------------Pedro----
-------------- Kaka -----------
---- Nilmar --------- Benzema -----

Granted I've maybe only played 2 games with Kaka, but he was useless. No doubt down to operator error, but he just seemed so slow and never going to make that killer pass or shot from outside the box. I'll persist and see if I can maybe adjust to suit.

Defense is also proving difficult for me. My problem is that I would love to have Ramos in CB but his coinage is through the roof and I only have around 30k just now. I could replace Iraola and the IF but I Ramos seems slightly better for the coins. Ideally I would like

IF Iraola - IF Ramos - Pepe - Marcelo

So there goes my dilema. Defence and Kaka. Opinions?

Cheers.
 
If he plays in goal for Celtic surely his biggest contribution is staying awake in 98% of the games? He's the English answer to Valdes :p

Higuain at CAM and not Tevez? Have you tried IF D'Alessandro, he's immense?

Why Tevez at CAM? Higuain isn't that fast, so I thought Tevez linking up with Aguero would be better?

Also Higuain at CAM would link up with Di Maria at RM, giving 9 chem.
 
Might give IF D'Allesandro a try then. Can be had for around 25k which is pretty cheap.

Rated 83, stats:

73 Pace
82 Shooting
84 Passing
87 Dribbling
54 Defence
51 Heading

84 passing would be very useful, he'd give some decent service to Tevez / Aguero.

NIF Higuain:

80 Pace
82 Shooting
71 Passing
83 Dribbling
53 Defence
74 Heading

Higuain is faster, but worse shooting, dribbling and passing.

2 choices:

1. IF D'Alessandro at CAM and Aguero / Tevez at ST.
2. Tevez CAM and Aguero / Higuain at ST.

I'm thinking 1 as Higuain isn't that quick, I prefer fast strikers.

Anyone tried Micah Richards at CB? Find England's centre backs are too slow, Ferdinand with Lescott or Cahill makes my team too vulnerable to fast strikers. Richards pace, tackling and heading seems perfect but his positioning is only 66.
 
Lescott was beastly when I paired him with Toure or Luiz but for some reason when paired with a slow CB he is terrible.

In my 41212 EPL team I have Enrique---Luiz---Kompany---Johnson
In my 4321 Man Utd/Man City team I have Clichy---Kompany---Toure---Richards
and in my 4321 England team I have Cole---Lescott---Ferdinand---Walker.

My England team is too slow with that centre back duo so Richards seems the best solution?
 
i just played with my 4321 team online after building them last night then going to sleep.

it was amazing, so much better than 4222, i mean i had 3 strikers vs a back 4, all of them with crazy pace and shooting stats, therefore i owned the other guy.

and he couldnt get through my brick wall of a midfiend and when he did, he hit my 2nd brick wall of a defence.

decided to sell EPL and Serie A and switch to 4321 in both.

no point in selling Aguero, Silva and Ibra though as the 5% would kill me to switch formation.

The only thing im not sure though on is who to play up front in Serie A, it's between Di Natale and Ibrahimovich, they are the most well rounded imo.

right for all you guys that use RM's or RW's and LW's or LM's, give me the low down on them all from Serie A and EPL.

In my liga BBVA i have Villa and Reyes, Villa scored 2 power shots from outside the box, and Reyes scored a power shot too from outside the box.

both of them are dynamite.

teams im thinking of as per below


------------ Ibra -----------
Lavezzi ------------- Krasic (i know there is IF Pepe and IF Maggio, anyone know who's best?)

i may just go for a midfield 3 of De Rossi, Cambiasso and Vidal just so i can afford IF Lavezzi. Vidal and Cambiasso are definitely in anyway, the other spot is open to SIF Marchisio. IF Boateng is out, he is too expensive although very good, he tires quickly, which is a pain.

same back 5 of taiwo, silva, lucio, maicon and stek, just need to sell and re buy in correct formation.

Now EPL, the choice gets even harder. Is IF Mata worth 120K when normal mata, young and nani are all really cheap?

----------- Aguero ------------

IF Mata ----------- Gervinho

Essien --- IF Lucas --- Toure

same back 5 of Enrique, Luiz, Toure, Richarda and Cech, need to sell and re buy in correct formation.


i want my CM's to basically be Rock's defensively first, so i have 2 walls to break through then my defense. if an IF song comes out, i would fire Essien and put IF Song in his place.

so guy's who are the best wingers?
 
Walter Gargano

Acceleration 85→87 (Very Good)
Agility 86→93 (Excellent)
Balance 90→97 (Excellent)
Jumping 69→70
Reactions 84→92 (Excellent)
SprintSpeed 78→79
Strength 54→54
Aggression 85→93 (Excellent)
Positioning 57→57
TactAware 82→90 (Excellent)
Vision 77→77
BallControl 73→79
Crossing 68→73
Curve 70→71
Dribbling 72→78
Finishing 40→40
FKAcc 72→73
HeadingAcc 60→60
LongPass 72→78
LongShot 67→68
Marking 73→80 (good)
Penalties 60→60
ShortPass 75→81
ShotPower 76→77
SlideTackle 76→76
StandingTackle 82→90 (excellent)
Volleys 63→64

IF Gargano looks solid for CM spot in Serie A team, looks like De Rossi will have to make way. Ideally he should be an 84 with those kind of stats, why only 80 EA?
 
Nani at LW and Adam Johnson at RW are brilliant, both really quick and can cut in and shoot.
Infact I scored these two goals against K1LLSW1TCH yesterday with the 4321 formation:

Nani:

A.Johnson:
http://www.ea.com/uk/football/videos/ugc/105923826

Johnson is a LW though, i ideally dont really want to play someone out of position if there are decent alternatives.

Valencia, Gervinho, etc are all better than Johnson imo.
