To be honest mate i think Parkers better than Modric and i'd have Parker over him anytime, the 5 million you paid for parker has got to be one of the best buys i've ever seen in football, Parkers so under-rated it's unreal when he was with us i thought he was outstanding and god knows why we got rid of him, his already proving to be world class with his displays for you and England and his showing his true talent
Nah, Modric has a certain je nais se quoi about his play, he uses the ball perfectly and is so intelligent. The pairing of Parker and Modric is world class, I don't think we will get Modric but I'm saying we need someone like that - a player who can keep the ball and use it well.
I do agree mate but Parker is quality aswell and he strikes me as the main Orchestrator in Spurs team at the moment and his English, i don't think his as attacking as modric thats different, i see modric as more of a CAM and Parker as a CM because parker holds the ball up etc, there a perfect pairing really, obviously were not going to get parker though but i'd still love to get modric. I think all we need as we've discussed before is Cahill, Modric,Hulk/Hazard and another striker then were sorted. One things for sure though i certainly wouldn't want Tevez, his a quality player but his selfish and he wants everything to be about him and he strikes me as not a team player and someone that will throw a strop if he has to be a substitute
Absolutely, no denying Parker's quality at what he does but just saying Modric is a step up due to his technical ability. Parker is more the engine and Modric is the orchestrator IMO . I agree with Hulk, AVB appears to be trying to turn Sturridge into what Hulk was at Porto and to me it has worked, only thing is, Dan probably can't change a game the way Hulk can YET. Like I said, a good winger who can take the piss out of full backs along with an agile, technical wizard in the center of the park is what we need - we get those and I'll be chuffed.
Funnily enough Drogs i was thinking about the same thing with regards to avb and sturridge, i think sturridge is so much better down the middle though and i'd rather we just bought hulk and went mata-sturridge-hulk would be perfect. cech,ivanovic,cahill,terry,cole,lampard,ramires,romeu,mata,sturridge,hulk would do us perfect
On my football manager I am in March 2012, I bought a lad called Marvin Martin from Sochaux as playmaker and he's doing a spiffing job . Also bought Cahill, Adam Johnson, Farfan and Cavani!
Yep, £27.5m! After writing this thread I tried to get Tevez but they wanted £50m . Got Johnson for peanuts though £8.5m!
haha !! My chelsea team on fifa 12 manager mode is looking like this, i'm in my 3rd season and normally play 4-3-3- Cech,Ramos,Terry,Cahill,A.Cole,Wilshere,Bale,Gaitan,Hazard,Pato,Mata and my bench is something like - Lloris,Luiz,Ramires,Sturridge,Sahin,Jesus Navas,Torres. And then i've loaned out Gotze, Neymar, Barkley and a few other good youngsters. Best moment of the game? Selling Kalou lol !
I tried him out on fifa. Played as napoli online and he scored 7 in a 9-0 victory Johnson would be a good signing for chelsea - I think he's a quality player.
What one, fulham one or man city one? I agree with Adam ( Man city one ) think his a quality winger and just what we need, english aswell
Bosingwa is going to Athletico in the summer in mine, not selling Mikel as he's a quality anchor man and puts in a hard shift. My squad is beginning to look young and just poached a couple of 15 year olds from City and West Ham! Won the Carling Cup, out of CL (got Barca in 1st KO stages ), semis of FA cup, 2nd in the league to United. I'll win next season bastard United.
On FIFA12, I'm playing as Barnet. I've taken them from League 2 to the Championship is straight seasons, and I'm miles ahead at the top of that, so will definitely get promoted to the EPL for the next season. Trouble is, the club is strapped for cash, so I don't have the luxury of being able to spend millions assembling a fantasy-football side (more of a challenge, see). Anyway, I've managed to find some cracking players who no one will have heard of. One's a striker called Wood, and another is a goalie called Smith. The former never seems to miss in front of goal, and the latter lets very few in. How much did they cost me? I got them both on free transfers! Now, that's how to do business, Mr Levy!
I hate the career mode on FIFA! So unrealistic, seeing Lucas move to Stoke, Hernandez to Everton, Torres to Everton did it for me! Try doing that with Barnet on Football Manager, it's so hard! Best I've done is took Standard Leige to the CL Finals and Croatia to win the Euros, easy to win the game when you have money to be honest.
I'm playing as the Spuds on FIFA 12,the only pwoblem is i've been awwested and charged with tax fwaud
. Same problem Cym! I tried to start a career with my manager's name as 'Harry Redknapp" but a little notification came up saying "ERROR: Invalid Line, convicted of fraud"
