no chance this year.
and a very very very slim chance next year because he has played for brazil twice, brazil aren't contesting this in any way but spain say both those games shouldn't be counted as they were friendlies.
imo scholari is an idiot because Brazil really needed a striker badly and Costa is on fire the reason why he didn't make Costa the main man when he was becoming good is because he is a liability and could be sent off at any moment because of his anger issues. Now the fact is costa has came out and said he wants to play for spain and not brazil, this has basically made him a turncoat and he is now hated by Brazilians and there's no way scholari will play someone that doesn't want to play for Brazil now, whereas had he been given a proper chance at the start maybe he wouldn't of came out and said he wants to play for spain.
current Brazil strikers are:
Fred (brilliant but on his last legs)
Fabiano (legs have gone)
Jo (has always been terrible)
Pato (he's now crap)
Damiao (mediocre)
all the above players were given chances even though are mainly average at best (excluding Fabiano) I mean how Jo has played more games than Costa is a joke, this is what made COsta want to play for spain, he never got a look in yet worse players than him did.
Neymar and Hulk get used as wide CAM's basically in their 4231 system with Oscar in the middle.
What they should do is either put Costa in the team after talking to him and letting him know he is wanted or play Hulk up front and stick Lucas in Hulk's normal position. I would use Fred against weak teams or as a super sub he's never been known for being one of the worlds best goalscorers and there is nobody else really.
It looks like he will never play international football again, unless he changes his mind and the people involved forgive him.

initially i wondered wtf at the second goal he's good but not that good, then I noticed the huge deflection.
i need to start taking more longshots, not played the game in ages.

Definitely shouldn't play this while I'm drunk. I'm one game away from getting relegated now. 
I don't understand some people, playing a 41212 with Messi & Neymar up top, every posession he would be running wide and trying to cross from one to the other to no avail, not as if he had much height support in Sanchez, Xaci & Guadrado, too! Madness!

After changing formation every other match I have found one thats seemed to stick. Ive changed yaya to a cm instead of a cdm and he scored a hat trick first game! I have 4312 with-
rooney,yaya and mata with rooney and mata as cams still
Da silva
suarez and van persie
I even beat the CPU on world class difficulty which is a first for me!

Getting really frustrated now. I know I've only been playing for 2 days but I'm just so **** it's untrue.
I just do the same thing every time, I run straight down the wing, cross the ball in and make nothing of it. I always find my strikers far in the wing and I don't know why.
I'm also **** at defending, I run every one of my players out of position. If there striker is coming at my defence I just seem to give the striker a load of space, I don't know if it's down to my poor aim or something.
I don't know how to defend properly though, it's impossible to sprint and press r1 at the same time, it's just awkward. :/

I'm on PS4 mate.
Yeah will do I was thinking of asking, it would be a help.
I think more than anything I just need to stop running down the wings and try to play through the middle. For example I always find Eto'o deep on the wing and I'm not sure why.
Defending is certainly my main issue though, I just can't do it at all.

Fred is 30, hardly on his last legs.
It is an infuriating game at times, stick with it and it will come good eventually.
Remember when defending do not dive in, give your back line space to counter the opponent and try not to just flick to the closest defender, you want to intercept there line of attack. L2 is a must and be mindful of angles, your defenders angle of attack is the most important thing when making successful tackles. Really you should be trying to avoid sprinting with your defenders unless moving forward in open space and even then you do not want to move yuoor back line too far up the pitch, playing a pressing game when you struggle to defend is suicide IMO.
In other news, Last night i built a BPL team forgoing rooney for suarez as suggested. He is a pure machine, 5 games, 6 goals and 2 assists, promotion back in to Div 5 as well so needles to say the team is performing. I would go as far as to say much better than my bundas side that costs 3 times as much!
Second game i played i pulled it back form 3 down to win 5-4.
I loved Suarez as CF in the false 9 433 formation, his finishing, passing and dribbling are fantastic. If he was 85 pace...his TOTY *should* be delicious.
Thats exactly the same position i have him in, he is fantastic at turning the defenders in the box and dinking it in, im quite impressed with fernandinho too, holding the ball and feeding through balls across the deck to suarez, rarely misses the target.
I built the team with the intention of rotating with my bundas side, im starting to think i wont play the bundas
That's why I never have two teams, I always prefer one and then end up not playing with the other one at all and hate even having to use them for that 1 in 4 for fitness.
I've just scored from 25 yards with Lucas Leiva. I think I am probably going to be given a win here...

L2 is shimmy isn't it? Can't understand why the defender stands about 2 ft away from the attacker when it's used.
