    Barca are class corcaigh mate. I always pick them in ranked and the fact that they can ping the ball around 1-11 is a real advantage. Chelsea, for example only have one top class passer in their team. Barca have a crapload.

    i fully agree with all of that but they have weaknesses. headed goals are huge in 11 and barcas front 3 are tiny! makes a big difference for kick outs too. chelsea, madrid and even the likes of city and milan are more well rounded because they have more strength and more ability in the air. i like barca but i kinda regret my pick.

    I suppose you have a point. The fact that I am totally pants at heading means I usually don't notice stuff at that. :p I score headed goals when my men are free....so stats dont matter much.

    I actually didn't like using Barca last season either, they just didn't click with me for whatever reason. Enjoying using Lyon at the moment, Bastos and Lopez are beasts.

    Sent ya my pick there axwell. Went with Bayern. Their defence is awful but having Robben and Ribery is always nice.

    Would of gone with Arsenal but I like picking different teams each season.

    Chelsea as they are at the minute in Fifa are imo the best team in the game. They are streets ahead of every other team bar Real in the game. After the update though could be a different story but I doubt much will change, it usually focus' more on transfers. Dzeko to city is a cool one!

    Easy 3 points for whoever plays me in the first set of games, I'm totally out of form. I'm currently strung out on UT and my recent record would be something like W: 8 D: 3 L: 25

    I finished unbeaten in League 2 with Liverpool and was close to winning it. They're not bad at all, would have picked them again but somebody else beat me to it :rolleyes:

    Had to settle for AC Milan :pac:

    It'll be the first of many to be honest. The quality of the prem is a good bit better. Nobody ever goes undefeated. Makes for a fun league though.

    I wasn't expecting anything different tbh, it's just disappointing that The Invincibles finally found their match.
