definately be more central - being on right or left mid is a killer for both your stamina and your rating (because of the incomplete cross thing you mentioned).

My stamina isn't really a problem. My stamina is 83 so i tend to last most of the match.
I have started playing more central and I have got more shots in than i think a whole season!

On Master League I set the transfer volume as "High" as usual, and this year it finally actually works - Rooney and Ronaldo are at Chelsea, Liverpool have Sneijder and Vidic, there's load of other interesting signings.

I prefer this - it's more interesting and it mixed Master League up a bit. On PES2008, I had it set on High, and all the COM teams had about 1 new signing, and maybe another if I'd done a trade with them. Except Chelsea, who signed all the classic players.
I am an idiot.
I started out on beginner difficulty as i knew it would be too hard and thought it would be easy to get my stats up if it was easier to score, it was TOO easy, i was top scorer in the league, most assists in the league, won the league, won the cup, most assists in the cup (didnt get most goals though as Defoe always stole my rebounds). I went to Portsmouth for my first team, as a wing forward (WF, both sides) but get played on the left side of midfield, didnt lose a game all season it was ridiculous, so i moved to Liverpool (where they still have Gerrard and Torres ) and put the difficulty up to Regular and finding it a lot more realistic yet enjoying it more, as I get so frustrated as missing a chance or not passing accurately because I know I only have limited chances.
Enjoying this mode thoroughly but not scored for Liverpool yet and nearly half way through the season! I always find myself making a run, pressing the 'request pass' button and shouting "SEND IT STEVIE SEND IT" at the screen... he never does.

But the bastards sold Stevie G to Man City! What a pitty! Now I'm the new Stevie G

I just scored the winner against CHELSEA! im so happy, it was european championship quarter finals aswell
.I have played 3 seasons on BAL mode and am getting really frustrated that my players' condition/fitness hasnt improved from a 4 since I started out, is this common with everyone elses player?
Is there anyway to improve this as it gets annoying when starting matches and only being able to play 70/80 minutes?
In addition to the above does anyone know how to improve your special abilities?
Ive also noticed that my agility, aggression and mentality doesnt change either?
If your condition/fitness and special abilities cant be improved do you think there is scope to improve this as an update to the game or possibly something to consider improving on the next game?

That you can only last 70 - 80 mins is stamina not condition.. condition is your arrow before a game press rt or rt to see if its up, diagonal up that means ur in good condition for that match, middle is ok condition, down or diagonal down means poor. if u wanna get stamina up then put stamina bar the highest on strengthen settings.
also agility, mentality and agression are dependant on your position.

I've started my BAL. I've created a big, strong German central-midfielder calle Christian Wolks.
I was signed by Lecce and made my debut after about four games. I haven't scored or assisted a goal yet, but I've linked up play well and defended pretty well, too.
However, in my last match (second appearance) I came on at half time and really cocked up. I gave away possession twice in a row, then slid in for a tackle, only to deflect the shot past my keeper, all in the same phase of play. :fplm:

Don't hold down the sprint button every time you move, only use it when and where needed. This seriously kills your stamina. Also, good performances will keep you on the field.
As for condition, this is your morale...
UP arrow- means your high in confidence
MIDDLE arrow- means avergae confidence
DOWN arrow- means your low in confidence
If your low in confidence, things like your dribbling will suck, your passes might not be as accurate and same goes for shooting.
I'm also in my 4th season and waiting on the special abilities to come. Wish I knew how long it will take and whether I can choose them.

Lol always the way...
I sometimes do it to piss them off... If they bring me on for 5mins I kick it anywhere... When I was with Arsenal, I couldn't be assed defending, they played me as a DMF and I was playing more like SS lol... Now I'm at my beloved Liverpool, the seriousness starts here

OK, in my fourth season now. Scored a few goals my team is 6th in the league. I was just wondering how do i get called up for the England squad? Would i need more goals? Assists? Higher ratings?

Its hard I know, but just stick to your game plan. I've got a few assists a goals, but the thing that makes me laugh the most, is no matter how many times I shoot with my left foot (strong foot) it goes off target or the keeper saves it, but when I shoot with my weaker right foot, it goes in ffs!
