    I think it's Shola as he's on another screenshot.

    Apparently we're getting the 8 way camera treatment like Arsenal and Chelsea got.

    Looks a bit short/slight to be Shola, but a bit too dark to be Marveux, not that they ever bother to get our players' likenesses to be accurate... Would be nice if we are getting the photo treatment. Also the kit actually looks like the real thing for a change, shame that I don't like it though.

    Just started playing KOTOR (was in steam sale the other day) today, has aged very well and I'm disappointed in myself for taking this long to play it, too many years focusing on console gaming and having a **** PC :(

    <laugh> possibly ;)

    that's the bit i always liked about FM though, so happy they're including it in Fifa! The players always seemed too one dimensional in the previous games. Realism = excellence!


    To pre order.. or not to pre order?

    Wait until a week or two beforehand to pre-order, once the prices are beginning to sort themselves out.

    Real men can have both, maybe even at the same time.

    But I don't like nuts! So nahhhhh!


    Aye. I'd normally wait and get it around christmas or something, but i'm only pre ordering for the FUT gold packs you get. Normally shelves are stocked anyway! Not as if it's gonna be a sell out. Would've just got my loan too, so will have good reasoning to splash out 40 quid :D

    Should be less than £40 once the supermarkets throw their weight around, but yeah the gold pack thing is a good move by EA for them.

    It took me about 6 months to actually get into this save where I got some success. Must have had about ten saves prior that all went ****e.

    Get rid of the likes of Ameobi, R. Taylor, Smith (that's not easy) - free's up lots of wages for new signings. Kadar becomes a very good CB. Vukic always turns out crap, just let him go on a free. Even on loan at Watford he was ****e.

    I don't think you're developing Vuckic properly, he has -9 potential ability, which means that he'll have a random potential ability between 150 and 180 each game, so as long as he's trained properly he should go on to be anywhere from a good to great player.

    Maybe so - but I always end up with Kadar turning out to be mint. Even sold him for £15m + add on's in one save. Not sure what I do different with Vuckic but he never seems to be any good.

    My biggest **** up on my current save is signing Podolski on a free, 4 year contract (one year to run), £50k per week and he is dross. Can't sell him or loan him and he wouldn't accept a mutual termination. His club form at Cologne wasn't bad, his internation record is outstanding, but he is ****!

    This'll be a beta screenshot so the player-faces wont be implemented yet.
    Here's one of many sources where I found out we were getting the treatment http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...35m-Andy-Carroll-Finnish-journeyman-club.html

    I'm a data reviewer so I changed all the faces for FIFA 12 (not like it will matter now) but my data editor still thinks Ryan Taylor has black hair....

    Oh and KOTOR is amazing "may the force be with you"

    Pre Season friendly against Leyton Orient.

    They have injured 4 players. Steve Harper is currently playing right back. If any of these injuries are long term I'm going to ****ing screw.
