FIFA 13

Decided to start a Swansea CM. Using their default tactics.



Notable subs:
Richards (66)
Bartley (70)
Agustien (69)
Michu (75)
Pablo (76)
Routledge (73)

Only brought in Deulofeu from Barcelona B. Excellent player, speedster, agile and will soon turn out to be a 'dribbler'. Benched Michu, prefer Graham as striker and De Guzman as CAM. I hope I can keep De Guzman at the end of the season. Richards will be my new RB in a season or two, as Àngel Rangel is already 29 and won't grow much more, if at all. Rest is sorted. Playing on Legendary.

My Lyon CM

February and I'm 8th

My agent said that he heard rumours that Switzerland and Argentina want to sign me. Switzerland just offered me a job so hopefully Argentina do too. Right now I have offers from Scotland (renewing contract), India, and Switzerland.

My Liverpool CM. Level is on World Class.


Subs:

Zieler
Sterling
Suso
Carroll
Shelvey
Adryan
Caulker

Decided to get rid of alot of the older players in the side and replace them with youth. My biggest signing was getting Eriksen in a straight swap for Gerrard. Surprisingly got Chamberlain for £4M plus Downing and put a cheeky bid of £6M in for Walcott, which was also accepted by Arsenal.

Adryan is boss on this aswell. Scored a hattrick against West Brom on the opening day. Think he has potential of something ridiculous like 88.

Was playing Barca away in my Madrid career earlier. Went behind early on, then went on to lead 3 times in the game.

4-3 up after a worldy header from Higuain. 89th minute Khedira slices one into his own net.

Properly getting into my Burnley career, into the Premier League after finishing 2nd and i have 7.5 million to spend


Suggestions? preferably midfield

Xavi.

For 7.5 million to Burnley no.....

It worked for me.

I won't have enough for his wages so i'll get his equivalent......Joey Barton

Jonathan Williams from Crystal Palace. Costs £1.1M and plays CAM,CM and LW. Starts on 67 and rises to 81 overall.

Thanks! forgot about him

Bought James Ward-Prowse, Matt Phillps(sold Ross Wallace for 4 million to fund this), Lascelles and Jonathan Williams

Just got the German national team job.

on another note... I hate how it never puts full-backs in the box for corners.

Gunna try to sign G. Ramirez... 82 rated player playing for the 8th place team in the Championship

I thought it was determined by height or something. Pretty sure I've had tiny centerbacks not go for corners.

Actually, I'm going to test to see if fullbacks go for corners, just going to find some massive fullbacks or put in big central defenders in the position.

Jelly. Thats what i'm waiting for.

What season are you in?

Wow what a transfer window I just had.

Into my second season with Hamburg. Sold Adler for 27.5 million to Juventus. Then a few days before the window end van der Vaart wants to leave so I sell him to Bayern for 41 Million.

My team now looks like this:


Subs:

Begovic (77)
Rajković (77)
Iličević (77)
Beister (74)
Rincon (77)
Falque (77)
Rudnevs (78)

Remy also scored a hattrick on his debut.

I'm assuming that's dollars/euros? I was so tempted to sell De Jong to Real Madrid, they offered 38 million pounds for him and I bought him for like 26 million in January. His value still only says like 24 million but he's the top scorer in the BPL and on excellent form so I guess they offered high.

January in my second season, got offered it at the end of December though. I play all of my games though, that's why I'm not further in.

Euros.

41m for Van der Vaart.

I get bored of International Management on this tbh. I always play every game and never sim with club teams (except the friendlies at the start of the season).

In my Forest career though I took the Northern Ireland job, lost the first game 1-0 and found it incredibly boring so summed their next game before just quitting.

Year later I get my first offer from a Top 10 country in Portugal, so I accept that. Played 2 of the 3 group games at the World Cup, get bored and sim the rest. End up winning the world cup. Quit after that.

Turn down offers from likes of France and Brazil after that, but now I have accepted Spain as they're the only international team that could tempt me to play matches.

That was my counter offer.

Into my 3rd season with PSG. First season I won the league and reached the semi-final of the CL. Second I won the French super cup, the league and the Europa League. Here's my current starting XI:



Ibra wanted out start of the 2nd season so I straight swapped him for Lacina Traore. Same situation with Silva so I swapped him for Hummels beginning of the 3rd.

Witsel was an 88 but he had two major injuries and he actually decreased in overall. First time I've seen that happen.

My strike force is immense last season, their first together, they scored a combined 78 and Traore was injured for two months. They are a great partnership, best I've used in FIFA so far.

For anyone who plays FIFA mainly for the Career Mode aspect of it, I'd strongly recommend getting PES this year. The Master League on there is so much better this year than Career Mode on FIFA. The only thing that FIFA has over it is international management.

I'll take a look. It is £25 on ShopTo at the moment.

EDIT: I'm a bit skeptical. I've bought the last few but rarely play them for more than a month. Is it a major improvement on last years?

I definitely think so. In terms of game-play I think it definitely feels better than the last couple of versions. As for the Master League mode, I find it to be way better than FIFA because there are no restrictions on player growth. If you find a promising young player and you play him consistently then he will grow to become a very good player. That's not always the case on FIFA since there are caps on the players' potentials. And there are also a couple of nifty little things they've included on this year's version (player training and items you can buy that will help players grow) that just make it have endless possibilities. This is the first year in a very long time where I've become fully immersed with PES. I definitely think it's worth buying.

That does sound good. I am undecided though.

If you're enjoying FIFA at the moment then don't get it. Maybe wait until you lose interest and then get it. It'll probably be considerably cheaper at that point.

Remy gets injured so easily. He has been injured 3 times for me already and now he is out again but this time its for 3 months.

But has scored 8 in 8 games.
