@ Panther.. I have only one problem with your team.. Why do you have Mertesacker playing LB?? he is the slowest person in the game That plus his size makes him a beast in the middle! Or does he normally play where Carey is and then you bump Carey outside or something like that?? I rotate my defense around except for Rojas and Sanga. Carey isn't as good as Mertersack outside. At least that's what the game says

kinda hard to win them against 5 star teams... and also kinda hard to avoid promotion when that is ur goal for the team, wonder if they would fire me if I didn't get promoted Depends what their expectations are. Like my league objective the past two years in the Npower champs is Avoid Relegation and finish mid table.. I have finished high in the table both years but lost just enough games that I stay out of the promotion area. Not as hard as you'd think. Now winning the F.A. and the Euro is hard but its not impossible.. you just have to play extremely smart against the good teams. I won both last season and I am in the Semi Finals of both this year.. Its extremely tough but its soo worth it! Also keep watching the free agents market! if there is a guy who is worth a big transfer fee stop at nothing to get him! I gave up the remainder of my wages the one year to sign Mandzukic who ended up netting me a nice 17m Also this is like the year of the injury for me... my two best defenders are injured, both of my strikers have been out multiple times this season.. my two CM's have had injuries galore.. its getting frustrating having to juggle my team around and not having my best players.. esepcially with Man City coming up in the FA semi final! I think I'm still in the npower2 league (been a while since I was obssesed with finishing the Starcarft 2 campaign) and during the 1st year, I signed like 4 players (all FAs) which instantly upgraded my team atleast half a star. Anyways my goal is to get promoted to the next league and always being the powerhouse of the league... I feel like it'll stay that way. Oh how I miss my Barca team where I can sell Xavi willy nilly and still have a star starting for me

haha, I have tried making those teams where I have all the best players and I get bored far to easily with that! I love having a team that sucks then building them up to an awesome team.. It used to be to easy.. If I want to build an amazing team I will have to turn the difficulty up a notch or two..
Well winning the Npower 1 and Npower 2 with a 3 start team should be easy enough! You should be able to sim through that and make it through. The Npower Champ is quite a bit tougher.. especially when teams like Middlesburrough and Bolton are relegated from the Premiere league!
@ Panther if speed doesn't factor into to it Mertesacker would be amazing anywhere! But I personally need guys who are fast on the LB/RB or I get owned! I am not sure what Fifa on the Ipod is like though!

I am not sure what Fifa on the Ipod is like though! I am pleasntly surprised with how well it is. Only issue is sometimes I hit shot and it passes it forward. The only issue with having a slow LB, is they sprint by and cross into the box. 90% of the time it is a goal I haven't tried him in the middle as much as I should, I'll through Carey at LB and Mertersacker at CB and see what happens.

welll that's why I haven't touched my Barca one in months now, it's somewhere around year 4 but I already got Messi and Ronaldo on the same team and if I really wanted to, Rooney could join them but that would mean sitting Sanchez (89 ovr) and I'm already sitting Xavi. yea I think so... except when those pesky injuries take out your star striker b4 a tourney game!!! how's the competition in the npower champ league?? and what's ur philsophy on loans when you are a npower team

There are some very tough teams (especially some of the ones who are relegated.. I've had to deal with Wolverhampton, Middlesborrough and Swansea) Where as some of the teams who get promoted are nice easy wins. Its a nice combination.. Loans I like them.. I try and loan out my players who I don't use all the time. Loaning in players is a slightly different story.. I like them and and I don't because sometimes I get to attached to the player and then when they leave I get sad... however I have found a sort of cheat that allows you to loan absolutely any player as long as you can afford their salary.. You just put the buy back price at 999,999,990 and they wont refuse you. The beauty is that you get the player for a year at what ever their salary is.. The sad thing is you can't buy them back at the end of their contract if you really like them! So yea don't do that if you plan on signing young guys who you are considering signing after haha. @ Panther Mertesacker is my favorite soccer player whenever I get a chance to I have bought him in every soccer video game since 2004. and let me tell you.. He is the beast of all beasts in the middle! When I have had him he never loses a header! Actually the last team I had him on was in 2010 when I played as Werder Bremen in the German League! and I had him and Naldo as my two Centerbacks... best.. pairing.. ever!

@ Ace
If you are in need of a good young striker who is really fast and just awesome in general try and get Havard Nielsen! He is AWESOME! He is big and really fast and his finishing is great! First game I had him I scored a quick hattrick! Then I played Chelsea next and scored another 2 goals on them with him! He comes highly recommended!

He starts out at 64, but he goes up to around 77. I actually found a good site that shows you all the players under 25 with potentials that are over 75! Its actually kinda sweet.. kind of cheating in a way but it sucks balls when you buy a guy who his like 60 that only goes up to 63.. *cough* Mansally *cough*
