Shooting is a lot more difficult than the PC and previous versions imo - Primarily the keeper seems to rush up way quicker.

Finally got a 1st team call up with the Mariners - two goals on debut.

If a league/comp is created, give me a yell.

 

[CC_Eagle]

One option could be we could create a "club" - minimum of 10 players and each players in the one position ala Be-A-Pro.

Obviously we'd play other teams for ranking blah blah.

Timing would be the major speedbump though.

 

[shiznit]

im keen for whatever...

 

[KHunt]

im interested for an xbox 360 league..

 

[salivor]

We'd probably want at least 5 to get a league going

Last match was so annoying.. they get a 2 - 0 early lead then they kept passing the ball around the back giving me little chance to get back into the game.. at around the 60th minute they msg 'aha loser' so I just quit..

is there anyway I can get the ball in that situation I was doing my best to charge with x and o then just held off and charged sometimes but I could never get the ball.. what an arsey way to play the game on the opponent's behalf..

 

[saint-colesy]

Just hack them down.

 

[CC_Eagle]

Pressing defence with an offensive mentality maybe?

It would push up your back line to the halfway line and your midfielders closer to the opponenets goal area.

As SC said, hack the f*ck out of them too. Slide!

I'd be keen to get a league set up on the 360 but most people in this thread seem to be PS3 users.

I'm a Wii user.
Dang, seems there's alot of random talent here.

Going into my fourth season of manager.

Just had an epic match... 3-3 at full time, 5-5 after extra time.... then I blocked his first 2 penalties and game over.. if I lost I would have died lol

Wtf is with EVERY merkin picking Barca?

In my first 360 online game, I nabbed a RVP 86th minute winner to take the game 1-0

 

[Jono078]

While my record is like 26-24 I reckon I am good at this game.

I played this 1 dude about 10 times and lost 9 of them, and another about 5 and lost 4.

So besides those 2 extremely good dudes I go pretty good at this

 

[renouf]

I'm curious about something, I've been playing fifa for a while now and have no problems beating the computer at legendary level, but whenever I play online and particularly overseas players, I find it almost impossible to win a game.

It's almost like my players are running at half the speed of my opposition, and seem really clumsy. Is it just me or is playing against people overseas more difficult because of the increased ping times?

Would be interested in playing anyone in here btw, send me your nick

 

[Jono078]

Yeah it is harder playing overseas players because of the delay.

I mostly play Aussies in the my country lobby, against most Aussies it's like playing a person next to you in your room, practically lag free.

 

[renouf]

ok cool, I might give that a try
