thanks. i'll give it a whirl.

Here's my starting 11 if anyone has any pointers/tips:

Though actually I usually start Wilshere instead of Pirlo. Also have Bent and Villa on the bench.

I'd cash in on Pirlo, no need for him to be there really.

there are so many good RF/LF's available in the EPL I'd look alternative options there too, I presume you're an Arsenal fan so why not Gervinho - Podolski - Walcott up top?

Put Mert in the center, he's far too slow for that position.
 
Personally I'd wack Podolski up in ST, then as mentioned above get Gervinho, Young, Ben Afra or Walcott for your LF + RF. I really like Young on my LF in my 5221 team. He seems to score loads for me.

I'd also suggest getting David Luiz (aka sideshow bob) and/or M'bia. I think they are absolutely insane good CB's.

I wouldn't suggest Gervinho to an Arsenal fan. :p

Oh I dunno, he's been really good for me!



PAz, maybe offload Villa & Pirlo go more "Arsenal & Friends" (BPL) with something like:

Sczeszesznsezesey
Walker - Luiz - Vermaelen - M'Bia - Baines
Diaby - Arteta
Sturridge/Walcott - Podolski/Suarez - Young/Gervinho
 
Thanks for the suggestions, will take them on board and have a tinker. Going to put Pirlo up for sale for sure.

I'm a gooner and a Polak, so I really like to keep Lewandowski and Blaszczykowski up there as much as I can :D
 
I have a 41212 with Mirallas and Kone up front.

I've saved 25k coins - who should I get to replace one of them, maybe podolski?balotelli?suarez?hernandez?

I have Podolski in my fitness team, worth the coins. Find him fairly quick, good shot and seems to score a fair few. Don't lose many games when he scores and he always seems to score 2-3 for me when he does too.

My fitness team may seem strange to some as it includes Podolski, Torres, Mata and Kompany whereas my first team are Defoe, Bent, Sessagnon(sp?) and Luiz.

Still finding the better players seem to stop me playing so well. :rolleyes:

The main thing that helped me is not to CONSTANTLY sprint!

Also holding L2 when you receive the ball/want to turn really helps as it holds the ball close to your feet, you can do this again with L1 but its much slower - although the turns are 'tighter'.

Player the gamer slower and pass it up the pitch and you'll soon get used to it :)

Not sprinting constantly made a massive difference to the way I play. That said when I'm not concentrating as much as I should be then it does tend to creep back into my game.

Err I 'd say that's part of the reason, but I've beaten a few decent skillers who defending wasn't great.

OR

The more likely reason is FIFA is liking me at moment and I'm preparing for it to remind me I'm no more than slightly above average /average :(

Decent skillets in the way they played well & utilised skills? Or the usual wait out on the sidelines for you to come to them and try to tackle them, skill past you and then lose the ball every time?

2nd type are fun for stopping their egos!

Decent players Tim like you :o

Sorry , but in all seriousness one of the finals I played had a strange game where the guy just passed about at the back then sucked me in and then did the "YO YO" thing with my FB's first few times I thought oh **** I'm in for a hiding but quickly realised that was his only way to attack :p Interesting tactic all the same and he did it very well.

Old Kyle Walker didn't know what had hit him !
 
How do you guys find the best way to defend in 13, actually more how to do you cover yourself when FIFA decides it time for your opponent to score? Honestly the more I think about it the more I dont blame players you play keep ball for most of the 2nd half to keep a lead.

FIFA 13 makes you play/consider the most depraved type of football possible :(

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
^^
i just tend to let them have the ball and come at me, while i back off holding LT/L2 waiting for the right time to tackle.
