    Yeah he seems to be at his best when he is controlled by the opposition

    Vuckic is still in my team and I refuse to sell him.

    Hart

    Santon Chiellini Sakho Enrique

    Sanchez Fabregas Hamsik Hazard

    Dzeko Van Persie

    Subs: (don't bother with keeper)
    Ben Arfa
    Vuckic
    Kompany
    Cavani
    Babacar
    Tiote
    Bonera

    I have kept Ferguson, I let Coloccini go because of the wages, Krul is there but isn't happy, Carroll went to Aberdeen. I got taken over and he gave me a £120m summer transfer budget. Going to have some fun with that! Ohhh Messi, where are youuuuuu?

    Gathered it was possible, but I don't want either to take priority over the other and I wanna be able to put maximum concentration into both to get the best results! Don't want my results slipping like!

    My latest Fifa career is going cracking at the minute, into my 3rd season which is my longest on Fifa 11 so far (I kept getting too excited and starting loads of different ones. I've finally settled). Currently 3rd in the league and top of my Champions League group, above Real! Woo....
    Hope I can get as much success out of FM!

    Annoying, as I had plans to breed him into the team. I had visions of players from my youth coming through and being quality, unfortunately only one made the grade, and he wasnt even a real person!

    Have any of you lost a really important game and then 'accidently' turned your laptop off?

    My laptop hates it when I lose! It goes in a fit and turns off, meaning I have to play the match again!

    On my Newcastle game, i kept Ferguson and started him over Jonas in the first season. Think that was a mistake.

    I had the 'one who made it' and some £70k Brazilian centre back, both around 20, as my first choice centrebacks. I've moved on about 5 seasons since then and they are both still there. They wont join my Milan team <wah>

    Still unsure whether I should start with Newcastle or Lincoln? Having never played it before I have no idea which is easiest really, big club or little club?

    Once they get a taste of Newcastle they don't want to leave :)
    hope we can attract some of them in real life

    With a smaller club, there's more challenge and satisfaction when you acheive what you want(PL promotion/European qualification/etc..). With a big club(in your case NUFC) there's still satisfaction but less challegening IMO. With Lincon you can build your way up to the top, meanwhile with NUFC you just need to upgrade a couple of levels and your there(ultimate satisfaction.. aka winning every cup possible). That's just my opinion, anyways.

    Do both, not like they are ever going to play each other, no disrespect to Lincoln.

    I always manage Newcastle and play them on fifa
    it's like fulfilling the dreams I actually have for the club virtually so it's the only thing that can satisfy me on football games

    I take pride in Lincoln being one of the worst teams in League Two, don't worry ha.


    Ta for the advice, albeit with kinda mixed opinions.
    I'll do both, and see which I get along most with.

    My team in 2012

    ----------------Krul----------------
    simpson---taylor---collicini---Enrique
    Iturbe---Tiote---Barton---Jonas
    ------Babacar----Lukaku-----------

    Managed to get most of my signings on loan in the 1st season, with clauses so I could buy them for around 5 mil each.
    Ben Afra left after his loan ran out, as he didn't want to sign for me :(
    I think Forster is better than Krul, but at the moment this defence hasn't conceded in 400+ minutes, so not changing anything.
    Also got Almeida for rotation with the two youngsters.
    Sold all the **** like Smith and Ameobi, still have Amy though, thinking I can get his value up before he goes
    Currently 2nd in the prem with a game in hand
