How were your players so fast? You out ran all my players with ease. You were too good for me last night. I just feel like the game isn't doing what I am wanting it to do with the controller. Its frustating.
How do you keep the ball when I have a defender right beside you and I am pressing x? you were able to take the ball off me as soon as your player got near mine... what am I doing wrong?
I haven't tried Nani in this formation yet, I wasn't overly impressed with him last time as he seemed a bit lightweight. I've plumped for Arshavin who I'm really liking so far and I want to try UP Bale as well as he should be stronger with his height and build which should also make him an extra threat at corners. Tchoyi (sp?) is a bit of a star as well isn't he!
Just need to earn some more coins to start upgrading parts of the team and I still need some subs,
I have to say, I know half of my coins went on 1 player in Drogba but he's easily the best front man I've ever used in UT.
@Robert - what's your PSN mate? I'll add you at some point this week.

Tchoyi is awesome, I don't like Bale though, he's a bit clumsy. Will have to try Arshavin.
Unfortunately the Villa squad is known for its pace (abuse).
I would say looking at your game style, try to be less direct, its easier to cover the most obvious pass, so mix it up (I tend to use lobbed pass for that). Also learn some basic skills, I only use them to change direction quickly, or even to attempt to get a foul in a good spot - if you prefer not to use them then start changing your pace when you are running (either both L2+ R2 for skilled dribbling or L2 for shield dribbling), will give you better control over ball and the chance to go around challenges or just plain avoid them...
In defence I use the CPU to make the tackle while the player Im controlling covers the most dangerous passing option - its far better as it effectively allows you to control 2 people at one time rather than you just running after the ball.
Im not a great player, just picked up the things you were doing (or not doing) and exploited them, while trying to keep my game a bit more haphazard, even if that means a 50yd pass off-screen. You need to play guys like Beenom or OMS on here - far better technical players...

Think I might get him - found out yesterday that my Brargie attack is too crap in the air - Militios not doing as good as I hoped and Agueros awesome at air headering it seems
. Stuck in UP Ibra instead and it felt better - ever since I did some moving of players my team just doesnt feel as gelled as it once did...Rather put 200k on Drogba than TOTY Pato I guess - Id like to see how lethal a combo UP Ibra and Drogba would be

Will have to give you a game sometime ps3ud0, haven't played you in ages and our games were always really tight.

You destroyed me 9-1 in our first game. I think I did do better in our other games but you were still too much for me. I still have a lot to learn about this game. Maybe I need to try and figure out what formation I play best with.
Bought some new players and changed a few things. I only have 500c right now. Need to play some offline tournies to get some coins. I might try buying players cheap on the 59m and sell them high. Heard thats what most people do to get coins.

I got Modric in a stack of cards. Trying to sell him quick for 5k. Need to buy players in a 4-2-2-2 formation.
