    Does anyone want to make a Fifa 12 equilviant of one of those friends leagues?

    The games a bit more.. competitive in terms of gameplay this year so it may prove more fun than last year :)

    I would but I am absolutely ****. I can't defend, I can't attack. When I defend everyone skins me because my players always stumble. When I attack I never have any space to attack into while opposition always does. Don't know what I am doing wrong.

    How good is the career mode? Haven't had chance to get into properly, made one friday night and halfway through my pre season friendly I went to my girlfriends and didn't get back till late last night so haven't played, now I'm furiously rushing sixth form work to play it <laugh>

    If you put it on a challenging difficulty (whatever that would be for you), meaning that you don't win every game so Newcastle win the league, then it becomes quite fun.

    The transfers and stuff is good or bad depending your experience. For me, our (Bolton) RB Steinsson wanted to leave for some unjustified reason so I had to replace him and then our best midfielder (Holden) wanted to go to a better club so I had to sell him and replace him. And then to keep the youth/core of the midfield, I rejected a £15 million bid for Muamba on deadline day.

    All in all, it's pretty good :)

    Yeah I'll start my first season on professional, if I start to run away I'll go up to world class!

    Thanks for that as well, whats the scouting like, because in the 10 minutes of my career I had because of my obsession with Danish football I hired a Danish scout

    You'll have to use the same career for it to be any good. I've got a few in the youth squad but it'll take a few years for it to be benificial.

    Is it just me but the defenders are faster than the attackers. Every through ball I make they seem to get to, ****ing frustrating.

    I signed Phillipe Coutinho, Ramsey and Thiago on loan.. my midfield is niiiiice

    Oh and when you do one of those loan deals when you agree a price too, you don't have to buy them next season do you? I got Landon Donovan on loan for a 20m fee next year... hoping I've just mugged off LA Galaxy <laugh>

    Just won the domestic treble two seasons in a row with the toon in FM11 in 2020/21 and 2021/22.

    Havn't done much in the Champs League mind.

    Just thought I'd let you all know

    I doubt that FIFA has naturalisation in it, so the he'll be missing Zaria.
