I like 4-3-2-1, that way I can get the best CAMs, also with pace to bomb down the wings
I haven't got into it yet, but if I was with LIverpool I'd have something like:
Reina
Kelly Agger Sakho Johnson
Gerrard Aqualani Adam
Suarez NewStriker Downing
Like having pace down the sides
Ive only played 8 games in career mode and just about knocked watford out the league cup ! ... im shockingly bad at defending !
De Gea (83)
Walker (82) (Coates) 80 Paupadopolis (83) Enrique (82)
Wilshire (89) Gerrard (86) Eriksen (88)
Suarez (88) Neymar (89) Lucas (89)
Subs:
Sturridge (82)
Carra (80)
Kelly (80)
Carroll (84)
Muinin (80)
and two youngsters i've brought up
Its the start of my 3rd season. For some reason Reina demanded a transfer because he was homesick or something...
Where do you guys get the money to revamp the teams like this. When I play i buy bargain basement.
Which team are you playing as? I finished 4th in my first season got a 50 or 60M transfer kitty, won it my 2nd season got an 80M kitty I think. Plus I sold off like half the team, Aquilani, Adam, Lucas, Henderson, lol. Gl to them in real life though!
Oh. In the old Fifa's they didn't give me that big a transfer budget at the end of the season. That explains things.
Just started second season with Liverpool (Match difficulty on semi pro, board difficulty on amature) :
GK : Reina (85)
CB : Carra (80) ---- Pique (91) ---- Agger (83)
CM: Mascerano (85)
RM: Lennon (82)
LM: Downing (82)
CAM: Gerrard (86) ---- Ozil (86)
ST: Suarez (85) ---- Pedro (86)
Subs -
Forster (77)
Skrtel (82)
Kelly (76)
Adam (81)
Lucas (82)
Kuyt (80)
Carroll (82)
Few good youths as well !!
Only played one league game against Sunderland but my line up is as follows:
-----------------Reina------------------
Jonno--Carra----Agger--Enrique
----------Lucas----Gerrard----------
Gaitan-----------------------Downing
-------------------Gourcuff-------------
-----------Suarez-----------------------
Had to start my 2nd season again because I didn't save
Team is:
Reina - 85
Johnson - 81
Cahill - 83
Agger - 85
Enrique - 82
Lucas - 81
Sahin - 85
Gerrard - 87
Suarez - 87
Carrol - 83
Downing - 83
Bench:
Doni - 76
Carra - 81
Sandro - 80
Henderson - 79
Adam - 81
Shiriqui(sp) - 81
Kuyt - 79

Sahin, thinking of signing him in season 2, any thoughts?
I also nearly bought Sandro as back up for Lucas, but got Gourcuff instead.
Aqua requested a transfer on my one because he wanted to go back home. Sold him to AC Milan. My youth squad stays in the youth squad until I see their overall pushing around the 70 mark. Then I promote them.
I'm really enjoying this FIFA. But now its seems to me like the gameplay is slow.
What gameplay speed do you play on? I always put mine on fast. Really can't wait to have a go at the Champion's League next season.
How does the youth squad work then? Haven't had a go with that yet.
Fred
Sahin set me back 30mil. Aquilani sale covered only like half that fee. I haven't played with him yet. Will probably do so today and let you know
Nice one mate.
Gourcuff is quality and a bargain, I would sign him if you have a spare 13 million or so. Cost me 13m at the start of the game, so might be cheaper for you now.
Fred
Speed is normal. Think I'm going to increase it.
You send your scout out and he'll report back to you with the potential of the player. Some have the potential to go to like 91
You signed them to your youth squad and then when they 16, they'll qualify for the 1st team. I promoted one guy so far. He's current overall is 58. He got loaned very quick
When you loan players out, I presume they actually increase in rating? Rather than in 11 when they never ever did.
Fred
Cahill cost me like 13mil. For a overall of 82 when I made the bid and he increased to 83 when I signed him.
They do increase while on loan. Becareful tho. I lost some youngsters that I loaned out in the 1st season. I remember it used to happen on FIFA10 as well. Stupid bugs!
That never actually happened to me, I think I got lucky!!
I'm glad new players are generated, better than in Fifa 11 where you had to play with the same crop for 6 or 7 seasons, however long you lasted lol.
FIFA12 career mode is the best I've seen yet!
Only used it for a little bit but early signs make me want to agree with you.
It seems like a FM game crossed with Fifa. Manager mode is what I love about Fifa, so happy with the current one so far.
I got the board difficulty on legendary.
1st season, qualify for champs cup, that's it from them. I came 2nd in the league, 2nd time around cause I didn't save. I got like 14mil for that. And them they only gave me like another 15mil and now they expectme to win the league, domestic cup and reach the final of the champs cup. WTF!
Also the prize money for winning the FA Cup is only 1.8mil
Now I know why the big teams don't bother about it.
leiva
I have the board on professional, wasn't sure how I was going to find the new style of defending at first, so played it safe rather than getting sacked early on in the season while not being able to defend. The league cup always had ridiculously low prize money on the last game. £6,000 for winning the third round of the league cup!!
