i had a bit of lag in the first and second bit it got bad in the third ... was it the fourth that was raining? f**k that was killing me ... manual passing is some serious shiznit and in third all my passes were too heavy and fourth all were too soft ... one on one's are killing me violently

when you tried that halfway shot again and rensing did the same action of going back and chesting it i had a heart attack but lucky he didn't let it in again ...

yeah we should get a bayern/citeh banner and just update the score progressively lol you know i'll be back like yo-yo's just a matter of time :cool: ...

Yeah I thought that was raining, but I didn't see rain? Took me a while to realise all my passes were f**ked. I use assisted short passing, but manual through balls which was my main method of attack.

The lag was pissing me off, a few times I went to the by-line with Robinho and the cross was all set up, and he just kept running over the line.

come on now i got sent off for demichelis slidding in and getting the ball and your player didn't even fall to the ground and you hacked luca toni from behind and got a yellow card ... one on one's are still killing me

what's this lost connection sh*t when i'm leading 3-0??

there needs to be a practice mode instead of the arena i don't get enough free kicks in games in good areas to practice ... manual controling is slightly different to the last game i'm sending short passes too long and through passes too short so i've resorted to using through passes for short ones and short ones for through balls :? if it makes sense ...

Anyone playing on 360?

The number error in manager mode is f**king ridiculous, I just signed Messi and he is given #2. What a joke!! Did they not test this and realise the mistake?

Apart from that, the advantage rule is f**ked and some tackles are pathetic and go unpunished/punished in various instances.

Also, how stupid does it look just before kick-off when all players are shaking their legs and warming up - looks ridiculous.

Apart from all that, its pretty damn good.

online mate ... do you have a ps3 or xbox?

Sent you a PM Toney.

i'll be taking that banner off you mate :p

i forget the first game score (funny how you forget the one's you lost) but the 3-2 game was 5 f**king sick goals especially the low pass to ribery for the game winner ... 4-0 schermozzle LMAO @ that goal i scored from like 45 out after i ran away from the box because i felt bad about the opening goal ... and 2-0 what can i say? i let you off twice and decided to give the half way shot a try lol

look forward to dancing again ...

that sounds pretty realistic to me :cool:

go to wireless control set up and put everything to manual ... best to play some friendly matches for a while to get used to it especially shooting ... one on one's with manual shooting is destroying my life

That was the third game... from 45 to 80 I don't reckon you touched the ball.
I f**ked up hard in defence, and then that cracker from about 35 out...

Nice banner by the way...

it looks superb :cool:

in that game at half time i switched to a diamond because i tried to plug midfield ... yeah kind of backfired until finally i could make changes which was like the 80th ... fourth game was pretty good even though it was tight ... i couldn't score off those two i felt bad after the first one i scored off in the third haha

Haha this is hilarious! I was playing a match between St George (my own custom team haha) and QLD Roar. I get called up for offside... but then for some reason the free kick goes to ME! And look what I'm greeted with...

my.php



And I tap it in for the easiest of goals! Has this ever happened to anyone else?

I got a question:

Can you set the weather of the game in exhibition mode or is it just a random ocurrence?
