Whilst playing ML last night, I had my first prem game since being promoted from the championship. My game was against Bolton, whilst not the best team in the league, it was certainly a step up from what I was used to in the championship. I usually play a possession game, opting for shorter...

Also remember to view the opposition stats whilst you're in the man marking screen. What I tend to look for is how good there forwards, AMF's and wingers are. If one of there forwards is far better than the other, and better than your defenders in overall stats, it will be worth having two...

I always skip a few days anyway. Anyone who complains gets benched. Speaking of which, I tried to get Cinalton to play AMF, he is usually an LWF or SS. I only done it just to give me additional options in that area, but he complained about it everytime. I thought he would just get used to it...

I can wait 5 years. So can he.

I have no worries that his value will rise, it was more the unrealistic valuation that he is set at now. I appreciate the position of the club is taken into account, which is a nice touch, but it should also refelct the players ability. I don't have the funds to purchase any new players at...

Have you switched off auto tackling, shooting etc in your profile settings? I've done this and there is a noticable difference. I feel more in control of the game and players.

Use the 'Mark Player' setting in gameplan, that will solve the through ball issue quite a bit. As for defending, I honestly don't have a problem with it. My way of defending is using jockey or jockey and conservative tackle at the same time, and when the time is right release the jockey button...

The only time I use sprint is down the wings, if there is space and is necessary to do so or if I play a good through ball. The less you sprint, the more control you have over the ball, especially in the middle of the park. I trust this is typical in both PES & Fifa.

This is my first real critisism of the game. Completed my first season last night, and was offered £1.3m for Shimizu. Now whilst the additional finances would be welcome, and without trying to sound like Arsene Wenger, that was an unrealisitic offer. At the time of the offer, his overall rating...

Of course, if you want to keep it real, and let the management decide the finances, what you could do is to sell, or worst case scenario, release one or two players to keep within your budget.

On that basis then, you must be lying, because they don't happen to me.

Otherwise known as an alternative point of view. The only way I would have made this thread dull, is if I and everyone else posted the exact same thoughts and comments as you. I've created a discussion based on opposing thoughts and experiences.

Hell yes. Yes there is a chance of being lobbed, but much more of a chance of a placed shot if the keeper doesn't close him down. And even with a lob, if he's close enough by that point the trajectory of the ball won't be that high and could still get a hand to it, push it over/wide, and if not...

EDIT:- The below post from mod is much more befitting and less childish than mine.

OK. 1. is the referee fair giving away cheap penalties? YES or NO - Neither. Hasn't happened to me. The only unfair refereeing I've seen was where the keeper took me down in the box, I got a penalty, but the ref only gave the keeper a yellow card. I was playing against Man Utd and it was at...

I did at least twice over the weekend. One was game over anyway I was that far ahead, the other was a last gasp equaliser.

Yeah I got that impression. Anyway, back on topic. I'm not going to be able to try the new patch until later this evening. But as a very vocal supporter of the game, I really hope not much has changed, or is at least adaptable if it has. The end of the day, you can't please everyone...

He's referring to the fact that Arsenal, back when we were known as the Woolwich Arsenal, were based in South London. Despite this taking place before Hitler was born, they're still a bit agitated about it. Even though they tried to move into the Olympic Stadium which is in East London.

It's a bit of a roundabout in terms of London rivalries. For us it's Spuds and Chelsea, and to an extent West Ham (more equal respect there though). For West Ham it's Spuds, Chelsea & Millwall. I think the fairest way to put it is no one likes Spuds or Chelsea, who also don't like each other.

In terms of locality, yes, but not heated by any means. That doesn't detract away from the fact that they played you off the park yet came away with nothing, if anything it shows how far Spuds have come. As much as it pains me to say.
