    He's a hero. Where does everyone play him? CAM or on the wing?

    I'm currently playing...


    -------------Krul
    Pisano Jones Colo Santon
    -----Cabaye --Tiote
    Ben Arfa -----------Gotze
    -------Ba ---Gameiro

    Leaky defence though. I've scored the most but also conceded the most in the league <laugh> Ba's got something like 25 goals 15 assists in 25 games. He's actually incredible, it's mental. On legendary, too.

    I have plans though, defence should soon become
    --------------Ospina
    Santon Samba Colo Cissokho

    Hopefully, should sort things out.

    I play Ben Arfa on the bench <ok>

    ---------------------Krul------------------
    Perch------Saylor---------Colo------Bastians
    -----Marveaux------Tiote---------Cabaye---
    ------------Obertan-------Jonas-----------
    ---------------------Best----------------

    Ben Arfa on for Jonas at 70 mins every game. Perch plays unbelievably well for me, he's taller than Simmo and heads everything away!

    I've outlined a list of around 20 players I'm going to target next transfer window. No budget though, and I can't shift Nolan or Guti (still haven't removed Nolan from this fifa game, as it's on my brother's 360. don't play him either way anyway). I've had about 3 offers each for them, but whenever I choose accept it always comes up with that annoying " due to this club's financial position blah blah blah" <cry>

    Surely not dropping Krul!

    I hate the growth in Fifa 11, a young player rated around 65-70 should be one that can grow to around 85+ easily enough with regular games and 75+ with rare appearances. On Fifa 11 they will barely grow and even then you have to play them every week!

    Afraid I might have to :( Leaky defence! I just can't help but concede. A bad workman blames his tools I suppose! But Ospina is brilliant, great growth too actually. GK is probably the last thing I'll replace though, after spending a fortune on Cissokho. And then either Samba/Subotic/Sakho.

    I find there's certain players that grow regularly in every save (such as Ben Arfa) but the youngsters take years and years and years to budge 1 (way past the suspected start age of 22) but can easily decrease by 1 after only a few games not playing. It's annoying that my youngsters have decreased by 1 as it'll now take me ages and ages to get them back up to where they friggin' started <grr>

    I'm not even having Ben Arfa grow regularly for me! :( It's rubbish! I've had Alan Smith play one League Cup game for me and increase by 1, whereas Krul has played 25 games and not increased! Only 20 days until Fifa 12 now though!

    Aye, I was thinking of that. You can use the wired 360 controllers with it too, so it's essentially the same <whistle> Haha

    No doubt you lot will keep reminding me of how good it is too :p
