I can't do it in edit player sadly, creation mode...don't I have to pay for that haha?

Think it means you make him online and download it to your console, not sure.

Do the other team see him as 'created player' by any chance haha? that'd be lame. I got a 86 Fellaini .

Sunderland always gets taken over for some reason with me. Right now they have Tevez (86), Nani (88), Renato Augusto (86), Moreno (84), and a whole bunch of other players. They have pretty much all 80+ besides one 68 rated LB.

Relived the Olympic football final on FIFA.



Dem ratings.

I don't understand why Liverpool are so good on my career mode. They came 3rd last year, and are in 1st currently this year. They have literally made almost no signings in their starting 11 but HBA. Their starting line-up is.

Kelly and Carragher in the middle.

For some reason Downing scores a shit load in a lot of mine too.

Won 15 trophies in 7 years with Blackburn. Time to retire

Didn't check Kelly's overall but he's probably like 84 by now. For some reason seems like all young English players have ridiculous potential in this game. Jones is 85 right now in my 3rd season.

Also, I've always wondered how they acquire GK ratings for players. I noticed some players that have played GK before (or just used their hands) have elevated stats. For example Petric and Suarez both have around high 20s-low 30s in all their GK stats. But for everyone else how do they even decide what to put there?

Got bored at Barcelona, so I simmed the season. Only won the cup, so I only got half-decent offers. I'm now at Bayer Leverkusen, and they only have about three of their original players. My team so far:

Aston Villa about to get taken over on my career mode.

I made a bid for Soldado at £28m. They accept my offer, so I submit a contract. Before that gets accepted, I see he's been sold for £20m.

Bender
Toure (some guy I can't spell)
(guy I forgot)
Defoe Schurrle

What season you in?

I had one at Dortmund, then two at Man Utd, then one at Barca, so this is my fifth.

I started a CM with Leverkusen, spent 2 seasons there and got offered Man. City after they finished fourth.

That basically happened to me with my Spurs save. On my second season I was trying to buy Adebayor back from City. I made a bid for like a few million over his market value (like $25 million), then they said "That's not enough...." the one without a recommended price. So I bumped it up to like $29 million, and this time they messaged me back saying "We need $33 million to accept this deal" so I'm like alright $33 million.... The next day he gets sold to Juventus for $19 million.

Started yet another CM with United, no one's told me they want to leave this time.

Such options out wide and up front.

Trying to download the update data onto a different PS3. Failing miserably.

Good job there's such options, Rooney's out for 6 weeks.

Kagawa's my top scorer..

Just played Greuther Fuerth, the worst team in the Bundesliga. They finish with 98% passing accuracy.

Can't seem to win a game on legendary anymore. Unless I have a vastly superior team that is.

Frustrating now, they just play fucking perfect football.

Lol I struggle to win on professional.

The computer is confusing me (Man City). They play Owen Hargreaves at CAM while they have Wilshere at CDM.

Lmao at Hargreaves playing at all.

In my United one (first season so real fixtures), City away next. They're first, I'm second, both on 84 points.

In my 3rd year at Swansea, not sure if I should sign Gibbs or Wallace.

Gibbs is better skillfully, but Wallace is stronger, quicker, taller and probably more realistic.

That sounds like a no-brainer.

Swansea just signed VdV from me for $47.5m (~30 pounds)... Not sure if they got taken over or if they just have tonnes of money from selling people.

Have you guys ever gotten a youth player over like 75 overall? High I think I've ever got one is 68 (this save actually). But I have a 15 year old Spanish GK with a potential of 84-90 and a current overall of 57-61 that may be a good player. Also have a 15 year old English LM with 83-89 potential and a current overall of 60-64.

Considering just turning this save into a FM type thing and simming all the games and seeing how well my youth academy and prospect players do.

I just find it annoying when you go to a big club that has players with a 37 or 41 rating. Why the hell did they sign them? Half the time they're on the bench as well.

I never use the youth academy. Find it boring.


So I lost the game to City 1-0 (of course), drew v Swansea. Title gone, won the FA Cup. Signed Dembele in the transfer window. Got 3 assists from 3 corners in a 3-3 draw v Everton.

Best I've done is get a youth player to 69 when he was 19. The youth doesn't come through in the game. When you're 5 or 6 seasons in there are hardly any players above 75 at 22 years old or younger.
