To be honest, he's not 71 in real life, Maximum: 68-69 but he will be 75-78 in the future.

Thing is though mate, overall rating doesn't mean everything.

An 81 may not be as effective on the pitch as someone like 5 below him.

Sammy is a 71 because he's quite technical for a lad so young. Decent dribbler, decent pace, good shot on him and he sometimes plays some good passes.

There are lower rated players like 65's that can be deadly if they have great pace and decent finishing ability.

Fair enough..
 
I've already preordered mine! Abeid is usually quality, and Santon will be hopefully turn world Class as well!

Best formation is 4-2-3-1 or 4-1-2-1-2 for me
 
4-2-3-1 for me as well. Demba ba is out for 6 weeks for me. Hurt his knee :( Shola up front...who is surprisingly good on this game. Still needs around 5 chances to score but he is not the lump of **** he is in real life!

I'm trying to search for a 4 star team I'm really good with, but what pisses me off is that ******s will always find a way to abuse a certain ability of a player.

Like the first time i tried playing with a 4 or 4 and half star team, i got put up against a guy using Napoli, and he abused Cavani's shot power like mad and scored 3 25 yard strikes in the first 15 mins.

Then when i pulled two goals back, he got so ****ing desperate for the win, that he just passed the ball around his back 4 for the last 20 mins of the game <doh>

Or surely he just used Cavani's shot power well? Bit stupid to say that people shouldn't use their best players' abilities to their advantage. Be like saying it's annoying when people play as Man Utd and use Rooney's power and finishing or Nani's dribbling. They are bound to, that's the way to win!

Nah mate.

There's nothing in the game I'd consider nooby. Everythings there to be used, and i try a bit of everything. But all this guy did all game was fill his power ball full and prayed that it went in. He never made an attempt to get into my box, he just pissed about with it a bit, waited for Cavani to get into some space, then launched it. That's all he did, that was his strategy, rely on Cavani's power. There's nothing wrong with using a players strengths to your advantage, but he was just abusing it.

Try 3 or 4 long shots in a game is alright, but not ****ing 50 man, as well as not even attempting any other type of play.

I'm not saying that long shots never take any skill, but most of the time, they are scored because tossers like him can't place their shots, and need to rely on luck.

If you had seen what he was doing you'd understand.
 
Tash you are way too obsessed with FIFA, you must change the ratings every day (were still asking us about FIFA11 edits in July) and you thought someone was crazy for suggesting Marveaux was 2 slower than you suggested.

The annoying thing about Messi is that Fifa have made him exactly what he's like on Fifa, but IMO Barca shouldn't be allowed to be used on ranked matches. They're just too powerful.

I've raped players using Barca, but they always manage to get goals because most of their team are clinical finishers and have like 90 vision.

Just strikes me as strange, any leads on the job hunt yet? Sounds like you need it to get you away from FIFA ;)

Still applying for loads. Thinking about just ****ing it, and going to do some charity work for the next year or so. I wont get any cash, but it may give me some vital experience, and the gap on my employment history is growing ever larger.
