I won the title on the last day of the season (on professional). Only lost one game all season (Chelsea). With my winnings I replaced most of the squad, not for players that have much higher stats but players with potential.
If you want 'growers' buy Lukaka (only 17 at the start), Neymar, De Gea, Wickham, Castaignos, Santon, Erikson.

For me, Gudjohnsen does nothing that good. He would be immense in a 4-3-1-2 just behind the strikers. He's pretty strong and can hold it up well, so would be good doing no running just playing it about. --------- Anyway, on mine, gutted Pennant has gone. Re-called Lawrence but he's just not the same. Sorenson Hutton - Shawcross - Huth - Gibbs L/Walters - Delap - Wilshire - Etherington Jones - Lukaku
Faye, Higginbotham, Whitehead, Fuller, Gudjohnsen, W/Lawrence, Ludiatto(sp).

Faye, Higginbotham, Whitehead, Fuller, Gudjohnsen, W/Lawrence, Ludiatto(sp). Is that Lukaka any good? He's basically a 17 year old version of Kenwyne Jones. Big, strong, got a fair bit of pace. But, best thing, he has a superb left foot. He can hit the ball like anything. I'll upload a few goals i've scored with him. If your just outside the area, and you have half a yard of space with Lukaku, you can just hit it and it'll either force a save or go in. Smashing shot. His birthday is in May aswell so he is one of the youngest on the game. Definately one to buy + Fuller works well as a sub.

They want 9mill for Lukaku, they can get bent!
Bid in for Albrighton, if that apple doesn't drop then Ji Sung Park is available to fill the void left by Pennant's departure, hoping to bring in another striker since Jones is injured.

I snipped up Lukaku at only £5.6m Hutton was around £4m. Kouyate was about £3.5m. : The thing is for me though, is i have Wilshire and Gibbs on loan. Once the season ends im gonna have some holes in my team. Lawrenceis just not the player that Pennant is. Need a speedy winger, a LB and a tough tackling big center mid.

Managed to get Albrighton in but set me back £8.2m, also got Zavon Hines on loan as a bit of depth up front (83 accel, 87 sprint speed is always welcome) Team now looks something like this at the end of January and is strong to finish the season with: Sorensen Naughton - Shawcross - Huth - Gibbs Albrighton - Whitehead - Whelan - Etherington Perican't (created player) - Fuller Bench: Begovic, Gudjohnsen, Delap, Tuncay, Wilson, Faye, Hines

just started my manager mode.
signed - Hutton, Lukaka. Naki (young pacy winger) loan - gibbs, wilshere
hoping to try and sign wilshere on a permanent in summer and bring in either a LB or Cattermole with my new winger to fill the whole left by JP.
this means i'll probably sell Liam once he comes back
out so far - tuncay, sidibe, bego (my pro is a keeper), tonge, soares, diao

Anyone thats interested, I found an unlimited funds cheat on a FIFA forum and it does work as I tested it.
1. Loan a player for a full season. 2. Allocate budget to 0:100 3. Advance till someone wanted my offer 4. Accept offer 6. End loan 7. Release player (will get a message saying you don't have the money) 8. Allocate budget to 40:60 9. 10. PROFIT!!!
Im aware this may spoil the game for some but I've posted this for those that want over £1billion ish to spend. Happy shopping.

My best game so far was against Liverpool! Torres put the scouse fuckers infront by somehow out-strengthing Faye and Shawcross before toe poking the ball past Begovic which he should of fucking saved The puff then scored again, although this time it was a good goal kus he hammered the ball into the top corner from 20 yards, I was leaving teeth marks in my control pad at this point from frustration, to add insult to injury Shawcross was injured, and my only defensive option on the bench besides Salif Diao was Danny Collins ;D But 2nd half we came out a different side, Etherington pulled one back and then he created the equaliser from an ace cross, which Jones just headed the ball calmly past that twat Reina, and in the last minute who else but Danny Collins pops up with the winner after Faye headed the ball across the box from a corner for an un-marked Danny Collins to tap into an empty net ;D I went fucking mental! Not because we scored a last minute winner, but because Danny Collins scored!

Right here I am: Stoke City 1 - 2 Man City. FA CUP final. Tevez has scored in the 88th minute with what looks like the winner. I go up the field and get a penalty. Its the 90th minute. Score: Extra time. Miss: Lose the fa cup. I cant do it. (I have also scored 1 out of 3 recent penaltys, and even that scored one Jones fell over) Here i go...

Isn't it much more difficult to pass the ball in FIFA11 compared to earlier versions of FIFA? I haven't got FIFA11 myself, only FIFA10, FIFA 2009, FIFA 2007, FIFA 2006, FIFA 2003, FIFA 99 and FIFA 97.
It's a rumour I heard, saying you have to press X-button for the player who has the ball and is going to pass it, and also press the X-button for the player you want to pass the ball to before he gets the ball, otherwise he will in turn pass it also!? Right? Or how does this new passing function work?

Thats bollocks. Just X for pass. Simple. You just have to be alot more accurate if you do it proper(manual) instead of ping pong(assisted)
And practise the peno's in the area. Press L2 and a target comes up.
Just dont aim to high or wide and dont hit to much power.

Being a lot more accurate is what I would expect then. Free kicks, just as difficult as penalties? L2 for a target there also? We will have a 4 person tournament at X-mas as it looks, and just the one of us (with FIFA11) has practiced by then. carrot salad//:musik

Nope no target on free kicks.
This year free kicks are alot alot harder.
Its very hard to get the ball over the wall and in from 20-25yards.
Holding L1(drill) looks the best bet. Around the wall and in.
