Yeah id those in mind. Had a game with them yesterday couldnt believe how quick their team is. Bent is feckin as quick as torres in it and not to mention speed demon lennon.

Adrian "Murgu" or whatever they have called Mutu in this game is my outlook for goals. Gilardino is sloooow.

I don't think you can get a league that is bigger than 28 or 30. I think there is some limit on it anyways. Think its 28.

Never played with them, no idea how they play

Fabiano is savage, so is Jesus Navas. Not a bad team to be fair.

Well, they are in the top 6 in Spain regularly, any side that finishes there fairly often, you would expect them to be decent!!

I'll be back in business from Friday after my exam. (as you've noticed I'm really concentrating on it ) Someone set up a pre-season league so I can get some practice.

Mr Moon

All the decent teams are quickly going, what decent 4 star teams are there??

God help the last 4 picks!!

A better idea would be to start early. If the picks are done today or wednesday then we should start. Don't see a good reason to wait for friday.....but maybe thats my impatient ass being in a hurry. On a side note, feckin thrilled with my pick of Bayern. Tried them out last night for the first time and boy are they good. They have a few duds in their team that I have benched. Brought in a new Defender I'd never heard of called Lell from the bench because Demichelis was slow as sin.......also replaced schweinsteiger with Podolski. So with him I've got Podolski, Klosse and Toni upfront. Very impressed.

I had never used them before but had a look at their stats last week and decided to pick em seeing as I knew Barca would be picked. Spurs and Fiorentina were my next picks and funnily enough, they both got picked next. Seems I got my pick just in time.

I'm surprised they lasted that long!! They're a great team in Fifa 09 so they are!

Id highly recommend West Ham. Tried them in the pre season league and Ashton/Bellamy are really good and Etherington and Faubert are fairly fast too. Only reason I didnt pick them was because theyd be up against the 5 star teams constantly.

In the premiership it will be alot more even.

Agggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, damn you playa3!! I was hoping to get Villa again.... Agbonlahor, Young and Carew are class!! Their default setup is pretty good but their defense wouldn't be the best. So my later games, I played a 4 man defense with a defender sitting close to the back 4. Then had Young playing off the front 2. Seemed to work pretty well for me.


Yippeee....200th post!!! :-)

Cheers! I've had a few games with them. Lost most, but think I'm starting to get the hang of them now. The defenders are a bit on the slow side, especially when you're up against United the whole time, so I'll try playing someone in front of them like ya say, and defend a bit deeper too.

I had Bayern last season in the Championship and thought they were awesome as well. Podolski was my top scorer, he rarely misses in front of goal. I wouldn't leave out schweinsteiger, he's pretty quick and his crossing is lethal. And with Toni or Klose in the box its a savage combination. Ribery on the other side is deadly as well.

I think i'm gonna miss Bayern this season

Just a quick pointer, Santry Red won Seria A last year yet he's choosing his team before me when I finished 3rd!!!

Think you are confused. Schweinsteiger is 64 and 69 Accerleration and sprnt speed. He is the second slowest player in the team. Deathly slow.
