The more worrying thing is it took 3 attempts for Bulut to get it in Laugh

was a better game

They'll still get through as AC are poor travellers. remember arsenal nearly turned round a 4-0 deficit last year. Barca >> Arsenal and its only 2-0. So now is the time to back them

Busquets would get more credit from me if he wasn't a despicable little prat.

Thats fair enough.

My gosh ive just 31 minutes on the phone to the groundsman at Sevilla FC. Just about understood him though his accent! (Edit:) He probably though the same about me!! "Why does this guy sound like Apu from Simpsons" haha

by Fernando Wed Mar 13, 2013 10:21 am

You have to admire sky's adverts trying to make the Arsenal game seem relevant by using the Klaxons "It's Not Over" Despite us resting Chesney,Cazorla and Theo and a few others Laugh

by sodhat Wed Mar 13, 2013 10:26 am

I'm not going to watch Arsenal tonight, because it is definitely 100% over. If Arsenal win and progress I will send each of you 10 of my English pounds in the post.*

Thanks to picking two odds on shots and then one decent winner Laugh

Today is a horrible betting day. The two big handicaps in the middle of the day are a nightmare. If you pick the winner of either of those, you're doing really well and will get goods odds as a result

Notice with Barca last night they played Villa as a striker, Messi deeper and they not only played the best they've played for a while, Villa scored Euro Division Homepage LII - Page 11 3559488474

Topic of the day: Using their current squad, pick the Barca XI and formation if you were the interim manager while Tito Vilanova recovers.

I think he has a chance. When I was scanning through, some horses caught the eye and quite a few of them were his rides. Seems good odds to me

I started on World Class and had to get used to some of the nuances before I was really competitive but I didn't want to waste time dropping down to pro. I think I'm over the hump now though and so long as I get a decent finish in the PL and some wonga I will be fine.

I didn't want to play as West Ham, I wanted a good team, but I decided I would take a rubbish one first so there would be no pressure if I sucked ass.

I signed Thierry Henry for £2m, and he's scored 10 goals Laugh

by Marky Wed Mar 13, 2013 11:44 am

As I said, i'm the Crawley manager, but after a short spell as Ecuador manager in the same game, I resigned and have been offered the Northern Ireland job. If you don't know, you can be a Club and International manager at the same time on Fifa 13.

Crawley and Ecuador though Laugh

by GSC Wed Mar 13, 2013 11:47 am

Nick thinks a 2m striker they signed in Jan is on 2k a week. Is his agent his mum?

I saw that you can do internationals but I am strict club man for the moment.

I desperately need some cash to build a squad though, it is legitimately garbage right now. For some reason no one wants to sign James Collins or Jussi Jaaskelainen off me though.

by Guest Wed Mar 13, 2013 12:08 pm

I am West Brom and England Euro Division Homepage LII - Page 11 3559488474

In my third season now, I won the WC with England and the team is now:

Hart / Baines-Dawson-Dawson-Richards / Cleverley-Rodwell / Sinclair-Rooney-Walcott / Carroll

And I always bring on Lennon, Sturridge and Welbeck as subs.

I utilised the youth system, a free agent I signed in August I sold for a few million in January, so I invested in a 4* scout, and one of his youth players was sold to Bolton for £5m so I got another scout! About 1/3rd of my squad in the Prem is fictional players from the youth academy.

No word of a lie, Scholes+ has missed my last half a dozen games for England, as well as the WC. He IS always injured Laugh

Cleverley isn't good defensively, but can hit a ball from 30 yards, while Rodwell is also great at popping up from deep and snatching a goal. The two work really well together (their backups are Henderson and Lallana).

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Wed Mar 13, 2013 1:10 pm

It is indeed. & Andrea Scholes+ is better than Maradona in his prime.

by Guest Wed Mar 13, 2013 1:24 pm

Maradona was never in his prime, so we'll never know. But Scholes + better than Pele, that's for sure. Although he's never had to play in black and white, so maybe that's unfair on Pele and the atrocious conditions he played in.

No no, its not unfair on Pele. Pele should thank his lucky stars hes not playing in this day & age as no one would know who he is with Andrea Scholes+ around.

Nadz, Division 2 is the best. You win 10k coins for it, Div 1 you only win 8k coins & a pack which is always carp.

My Spurs career on FIFA is not going too well, despite Bale being a god

My team is:

Ruddy
Walker---Subotic---Verthonghen---Baines
--------------------Capoue----------------------
--------------Fellaini----Dembele--------------
Lennon--------------------------------------Bale
---------------------Aubamyeng-----------------

Sold Lloris to Madrid for £20m, so brought Ruddy on the cheap, and Aubamyeng, next season sold Kaboul, got Subotic, Assou Ekkoto swapped for Baines and some monies, and signed Fellaini as well

Absolutely, I never mind getting relegated from Division 1, it's filled with pace abusers, Div 2 is where you get your football purists. Mixed in with pace abusers.

by nadeem2099 Wed Mar 13, 2013 1:52 pm

If fifa career mode was a bit like Pro evolution soccer career as when a player retires they are reborn as a 17 year old free agent the following reason. I remember signing Maldini and playing more than 400 matches with him by the time he was 22.

Saw this. He's deluded if he thinks Brighton are only paying that Ulloa 2K a week.

We signed Holty in League 1, when we were on the brink of administration, for 400K, and I reckon he was on at least 5-10K a week.

Genuinely he is a #headsgone. Stephen Dobbie there highest paid player? Come off it. You're paying Vicente to play in that Poopie

by GSC Wed Mar 13, 2013 2:02 pm

Nick likes to live in his fantasy bubble where Brighton are massive underdogs and we should all be rooting for them
