I stick Izzy in for El Kaddouri at left back, but put El Kaddouri at LCB instead of Majstorovic (as he is slow).

I also stick Ledley in for Ki (again as he is slow).....stick Ledley on the left wing, Commons on the right and Brown in the centre.

I still use 4-4-2.........though 4-3-1-2 is a formation I use too. Can't stand any others like 4-3-3....need the two centre forwards.

I use Mulgrew as CB next to Wilson. When I play 4-4-2, Commons doesn't do a lot on the left, so I like him right behind the strikers with the 3 CMs.

Can't say I disagree.....Commons does seem to disappear from games.

Usually I'll storm up the middle with Kayal

You take Ki out? Nigga, you crazy. He's a beast.

Ledley for Commons and replace the LB with that other better LB, that's all I do. Never had problems with the Centrebacks.

Finished league 7 earlier. I was on 4 points with 2 games left. Safe to say, I eventually got all 6 points available to save my self from relegation. Such an excessively sweaty league. I can't even imagine the hyperhidrosis of the higher leagues.

Ki is slow though . But as Commons has been been quiet I'll try Ki and see what happens.

El Kaddouri is always there for corners and scores so many.....maybe the Swedish dude I take out would do the same but it works for me.

Just played my first match in Division 5, got completely dominated but won 1-0 with a goal from a corner

oh damn.. sounds like a nice hate mail story.

Surprisingly no, there wasn't any. But see if you're 1-0 up with less than 5 minutes left in game, would you keep the ball in the corner? I got hate mail for that the other day. In fact to quote them: "u must be a tim with those manky tactics"

i get those messages all the time. i continue not to care.

since everyone does it.. why go for more goals if i dont need em.

He's a centre mid/DM, doesn't really need to be quick. He's got great vision and passing as well as being fairly strong, that's more than enough imo.

just got promoted to division 2, with 19 points.

1 more to go before COD releases lol

It's only a fucking game, it ruins it when you do stuff like that.

What can I say, I'm competitive.

Sorted lag out, played 2 seasons with perfect connection, got promoted both times, D6 now. On a roll, I reckon I can reach about D3/4, can't see myself getting any higher than that though.

When there's a few minutes left on the clock and I'm ahead sometimes I'll go to their corner and just run back and forth doing 180 turns. If they manage to tackle me 95% of the time it will go out for a throw in or corner to me. When that happens....rinse and repeat

Gets quite a lot of hate mail but end of the day......I won and I couldn't give a toss if they're mad.

don't worry about him. FIFA 12 is just another thing he's shit at.

Mulgrew is just as tall, and his set pieces are beast. Try the 4-3-1-2 and see how it goes. Forrest is insane on this game, so put him on the right with Brown in the middle and Ledley on the left if you stick with 4-4-2.

He has a point though, people who are really competitive on FIFA are then ones who usually exploit the games mechanics, time waste and go for "sweaty goals".

In some circumstances i can understand obviously (for example, if you've just scored a stoppage time winner you may try to keep possession instead of continuing to attack), but for some it seems as though winning and having a decent record is a much more bigger priority than actaully enjoying the game.

yes. but you just approved of what i do.. if i get a late winner.. im not going to risk a draw by going for more goals.


also.. i really do hate when people go 1up and pass around the D.. so infuriating.

If I put a sub on it's usually Bangura before Forrest. He is a beast

this game infuriates me more than anything else in the world.. i think i need a break.

there is just so much bullshit in this game during matches.. it's unreal.

On CM I had Ruddy as my starting GK, and a young GK as a backup (about 66 overall). So I decided I am going to sign another middleage-older keeper to have him as the back-up so I can send my young GK on loan to get some experience. So firstly I send my GK on loan mid week, and then Ruddy gets a training injury and is out for 3 months. I am without a GK at this point. Had to put a LB in goal. I still managed to only lose 2-1, and it was only a pre-season friendly so it doesn't really matter.

I also found some 73 brazilian striker with 89 heading accuracy and 96 jumping in my third season. C. Jerome also has almost all 90+ physical stats in my third season, and hes only 77 overall.

Fifa servers have given me like 3 losses because I've lost connection, better not cost me my promotion.

FUCK it did it again, I was 1-0 up in the 80th minute, dominating the possession and generally having the best of the attack and I lose connection to the EA server. Now I have to win all of my remaining 3 games to get promotion when in fact I probably would have already been promoted by now if it wasn't for constantly losing connection!

TBH if you lose connection it's probably your internet/router.
