This basically. Once you have a decent amount of coins, you can make a lot more per trade. For example, I bought an IF Ozil earlier for 75k, and sold him for 88k. As opposed to buying 600 coin players and selling for 1500.

i actualy do forget though, ive only had 1 xbox crash on me since its release, not too bad compared to some people, probably been lucky, but with the xbox theres too many things that contribute to its life, room temprature and where you place your battery pack and rubbish like that.
room temperature? im in scotland and its always in an open area, so i would say its generally colder here than anywhere else in the world apart from the north pole.
its got **** all to do with all that rubbish, it was a design problem simple as.
ive still got a mega drive 2 which works, 2 ps2's (1 of them a launch) and a ps3 (launch) that all still work fine. to say the 360 died 3 times in the same conditions those lived in for years is a joke.
theres even people who show you videos of mods that fix the design problem, x clamp and what not, microsoft should have fixed the problem, and gave everyone a new console, thats what intel done when their sandybridge chipset had a small issue, microsoft thought it would be cheaper to do a bodge job and deny the problem existed.

Ozil is a funny player, im not getting on with him at all, i have UP Ozil, going to need to grind it out and upgrade to Kaka
this aint come from my brain of **** all knowledge, its just what i was told from microsoft when i had 3 red lights.
not arguing lmfao.
xbox's have **** boards, rubbish solder, why do you think theres a temporary fix to 3 red lights with wrapping a towel around it. design problem or not, heat is a problem.

It's odd. I had the original Ozil a while back and he was pretty good, although I eventually replaced him with Kaka who is a God amongst mere mortals, and I've tried the IF Ozil and he's poo.
It's kinda like Pepe, the normal 84 version scored 24 goals in the time I had him, yet his IF 86 version has scored 2 and rarely looks like he's going to do anything close to that.
I'm still not decided on Hamsik, he seems to be a bit iffy and doesn't fit in well. I was thinking about putting the IF 87 Van der Vaart in on the LCM, but I'm still not sure. Fabregas is great in the middle, who I recently sold Gerrard for (who was just a bit slow/old/anonymous most games) and has already scored a couple and goes mental around the pitch most games.
I mean, really, I have a decent enough team, I could put Wilshere to the bench and maybe get Essien, or Iniesta or someone similar in that role, but I seem to have an aversion to buying non-IF players at the moment
So really, it's either stick with Wilshere, sell Ozil and get Van der Vaart, or...well...someone else.
Shame I can't have 11 Kakas. :/

Nice! I scored with Casillas against Reina the other day while playing a friend, was winning and figured I'd have a laugh, took the free kick and it hit the crossbar and went down into the goal! 
I thought this was pretty cool though,

David Villa diving forward and using the heel of his boot to do some sort of overhead kick. Can't really see it very well in the video mind you.

I got IF Hamsik after hearing people rave about him on the EA forums and here and I haven't been that impressed. Got him for a good price at least if I want to shift him.
Well I picked Milito up for ~20k. About average for when I was looking, though a bit more than what I've seen him go for.
First two games I've played with him, I lost 4-0 (worst I've ever lost) and 2-1. The first game was a total nightmare. I had, as usual, about 60% possession. He gets a break running straight at my defence with Van Persie. Ball too far ahead of him, hits my defender, straight back to VP and I concede a free kick. Weird angle, he just banged it in.
From then on, every break just went right for him and I couldn't get a single proper break. I think I had something like 7 on target and just couldn't put it away.
Second game was fairly similar, though I went 1-0 up. Some bad defending and awful finishing on my part and the game is over.
Gone from losing about 1 in 4 (or 5 even) to 2 on the bounce and no chance of winning either lol.
Need a pacey midfielder, or CF. Hamsik is good for me, though Cassano never really clicks. Any suggestions? 4-3-1-2, Serie A.

Hah Casillas.
Awesome goal bro! It's like he flicked it with his heel in midair!

is kaka really that good?
what do you like about him over Ozil?
im hoping for finesse shots outside the box, or some power shots as well as decent crosses.

hamsik is a funny player he doesnt play as well as his stats, ive never got on with him, lavezzi and menez are my first choice CAM's in Serie A, the only ones i see better than them are IF Lavezzi tbh.

show us the team, your budget and console
Menez and Lavezzi are fast CAM's. as ive said about a million times now lol.
Hah Casillas.

It is! When he did it all I could say was "wtf?!" as I was expecting him to head it in as normal (or as luck would have it hit the post or something equally failtastic) but he did that.
I find it's the consistency. Kaka makes great passes, has the strength and the pace to get around players aswell as the dribbling. And my lord he can score. He's my second top scorer, he gets in great positions off the ball to head them in, and he can drive them home or curl them around the keeper like anyone else.
He's just an all-round great player, and I feel the impact when he's not playing, less chances, and less solid in midfield.
And for the money, he's worth it.
Of course, it will still probably depend on the person, not everyone will like how he feels when you play with him (lolz) but I think he's one of my best purchases.
Miccoli looks like a cheap buy, worth a look and a sell on if not. Either him, Lavezzi or Menez (though he never comes up for my formation)
I can't stand Lopez, probably due to Chem so I'll sell him on. Don't know why I bought him!
I saw Tim had Hamsik in centre mid and think that might be better than CF where I play him. Though I'll either have to find one for sale as a CM or by CF > CAM then CAM > CM which I can imagine being pricey.
I had a look a Pastore as well but he doesn't seem to fit the pacey CF I think I need.
EDIT:
PS3, about 5k or about 10k if I shift Lopez on. I'll look at Menez, Lavezzi
D) and Miccoli. Thanks all.

I spent ages and used an auto clicker to get to the hour mark, found a few bargains but, nothing amazing. Bought david silva for my CAM positon to replace Rossi.
I'm sitting on 30k atm after luckily getting 86 eto'o earlier in a pack that sold for a nice amount, whats the best way to build up profit with this amount of coins? Should I buy good priced IF's in this price range to sell on? I am slowly learning player values, but it's boring buying XX player for 900 when I know hes worth 1,500, just because I know that I can make a small profit on him. Now I have abit of coinage I want to be making bigger profits.
Any guidance appreciated ;D
