Podolski is brilliant.

Gonna have to respectfully disagree my good man! ;)

I played him alongside Giroud, Hernandez, Ba, Cisse etc and found him to be slow in comparison for a higher rated player and his (my :p) shooting was dreadful - I think I only scored a single goal with him!

Found Suarez and Balotelli to be the business up front!
 
Bought all 5 'premium big packs', got gerrard as best player :/

I buy two silver packs to build a silver team, and in second one I get Danilhino who is worth well over 80k and Diego Lopez. Go figure :/
 
Your right about Xavi there just seems too much for him to do and Higuain is indeed a bit pap. I thought I'd try him though see how things went but I need a real dynamo there. I might put Lavezzi to LM and Aguero to CAM then change the front two to Maybe RvP and Rooney. Depends how much coins I need. Whats Kaka like this year, I used to rate him in 11 but not 12.

Yep, I think you have a great basis there, just needs some tweaking!

If you want to 9 up go Lavezzi LM, Tevez/Aguero CAM, Aguero/Tevez LST, RVP & Rooney are meant to be not great this year, gong on user opinions RVP feels very underwhelming & Rooney tracks back way too much (H/H + engine trait = ST as CB at times). Could always try someone like Zarate at CAM, then Aguero/Tevez up top together.

Kaka isn't bad this year, he was great last year but most ppl seemed to avoid him due to his pace loss etc, but was always a solid goto guy for me :)

Podolski is brilliant.

This, the man is a beast :)
 
Yeah I thought Podolski was great. Although he's pacy, he's not one of those like Hernandez/Aguero where you beat the offside trap and put him through on goal all the time. He's more like Balotelli as he drops deep, finds space and has a pretty beast shot :p
 
Still pinging a few packs for a hope of IF Neymar to sell on, nothing yet! :p

But if I did, I'd be all

I did just this and found Podolski and Giroud were exceptionally poor up front (stuck with my tried and tested 352 :D) and without Sagna and Gibbs (due to not needing a RB or LB on 352) the defence were very shakey too!!!

I've stuck with the middle of the park being Arsenal with Vermaelen in the centre at the back, Wilshire & Arteta at CDM, Cazorla at CAM and Walcott in RM - seems to work very well!

By the way, is everyone else's web app not finding specific positions?? If I search for LM it finds nothing but if I search for LW or "Midfielders" then loads of LM's come up!?!?!?

I'm going with this:

Aww, missing happy hour. Got a free £5 PSN credit I was going to spend on packs from Game, but not put it in my Fifa account yet and stuck at work. There's no way I can buy Fifa points without being on the PS3 is there?
