FOOTBALL Fifa 13 PC and Consoles

The other thing you can do is play around with the sliders. I've always found that EA are ***rubbish*** at balancing their difficulty levels but now with the sliders, it's possible to customise the difficulty so it's in the 'Goldiocks' zone - just right in other words. :)

I'm just using the sliders someone suggested earlier in the thread, haven't changed them as I don't think I quite know what to change and by how much. No worries though, I'll get used to world class.

@Simon: Fellaini is awful in FIFA. I manage Belgium so have him and he is poor, so sluggish and nothing more than a guy who'll win you headers. M'Vila isn't much better.

Reus seems a bit average in Career Mode tbh.

Hulk is a bit too one-footed, prefer Ben Arfa.

Hernandez is pretty poor.

Oh and it's probably better to have one pacey CB instead of two slower ones or else you'll get crushed on the counter.
 
Butland is now 32 years old in my career and is an 87. Not bad. Has anyone got him any higher?
 
Anyone uses Skill Moves to play? I am not getting used to it. It doesn't work every time, it's hard to chose the right one for me. Since there are so many combinations that it do different moves when we want another and it's not always paid off. Too much risk to lose possession.
 
I use 'em on UT and H2H. Offline, fake shot/cut-inside, all you need and all that really works against the CPU.
 
Been back on Career as well, with Bayern this time, 1st season done with(FINALLY :D), treble winning season too. ;)

What is your negotiation strategy? I usually start with ?1m or ?2m under the player's market value.
 
Did so at the start of career, saw no point in it though, never worked is what I mean.

I usually get at least ?500k under market value. Players that you buy will never accept lower wages than they were getting at their old clubs (of course they wouldn't) but free agents will usually take up to ?2,000 less than they were asking for.
 
Kroos ahead of Muller, Epic. That should have been a fairly easy decision.
 
I bought Falcao for 84,500,000 : My formation

No, not really, Kroos is just too slow to play behind the striker for me, best used where I've got Schweinsteiger playing really. With that said, Muller isn't the god of FIFA either and that's why I will definitely be looking to bring in one of Modric/Ozil/Sneijder in the upcoming transfer window.

Btw, who do you guys reckon is the best of the three CAMs?

IMO its Ozil. His overall is at 94 for me after 3 years in my Bayern save, and since he is 26/27, its still growing. Kroos in my game is at 93 as well, and Mullers 89.
