Where is Inter milan? They are in my opinion in top 5.az243 said:Here is how I rank the teams in the game
1. AC Milan
Simply the best team in the game by far because of defensive and offensive balance. There players move up the pitch well. The key strat is to get Shev the ball and let him dribble while the midfield moves into position. They also fight for the ball, always on the chase and usually win balls easily. They have a lot of class players, and unlike real... they actually work very well together.
2. Barcelona
I would have them above AC if it wasn't b/c of AC's bench and depth (Ie.. you get a few blue downers, always someone in the red to step in)
Also, Barca's defensive has problems positionally. (hey its spanish soccer so don't expect not to conceed a goal!) But they are class. Ronaldinho is the sickest dribbler in the game and everyone knows how to use him to spurn an attack. Eto is a finisher and power at the runs... midfielders deco, xavi, and inieasta can do it all (pass, shoot, score). Then you got guily and messi running down the other side with pace. Larsson also becomes handy in corner situations for headers. TOO MUCH OFFENSE, SPEED, AND PACE. Leaves teams in the dust.
3. Chelsea
I hate to be on the bandwagon, but honestly... they are good. Primary way to go with them is on the wings! They are deadly fast on the sides and you can usually move the ball to the middle where lamp or drog will get a crack at it. Their defense is solid too. Stat wise, Gallas may not be that great but in my view... I always chase down people with him. Then Terry's head be it captain or for goals is always there. Also, who's gonna complain with essien and makelele fighting, helping out the def? Would be no. 2 but Ronaldinho on a good day would be too much for them.
4. Arsenal (Major upset, read my justifications)
They've taken a substantial drop in the world, but they still are elite in Winning Eleven. They are my favorite team to play b/c I've been using them since WE7 and feel comfortable with them. But personal bias aside, I put them at number 4 because their offense is too deadly while their defense will shoot you in the foot. Their def has become shit, ashley cole is a winger most of the time... He's always chasing down the ball rather than staying back to defend. Campbell is always working overtime. But Henry, Reyes, Pires, Hleb, Ljungberg, and even Silva will get you goals period. The Pires cross to Henry is the easiest pass in the game to make. So Vierra is gone? but Hleb at CMF is actually more powerful. I like the added offense from him. Then there's Henry. Nuff said.
5. Manchester United
There's just too much talent on this squad for them not to be mentioned by now. Ruud has gotten a little worse, but Alan Smith is very sick in the game. Then you have Rooney and Ronaldo who control the ball most of the time. Giggs is older but he's still dangerous with the pass and Park is a work horse. Chases and never tires. Scholes is my favorite to rip it from 25+ meters. Their def is solid too, don't find many holes. Then the bench is stacked with talent.
6. Real Madrid
Why so LOW you are thinking? The big $$$ midfield just doesn't deliver as they should. Beck's is good at passing but he doesn't control the ball very well. He's lost often on the field. Zidane is great but getting up there in age. Can't finish 90 minutes and usually has to sit down. Baptista is a bright spot but he doesn't finish shots very well. Guti/Gravesan perform well defensively but they feel like grandparents with the ball. Just so slow and reaction is very delayed. Real's Def is crap... their SB's don't get back very well and lack Def. They get punished in the game for this and in real life. However, lets be fair. Ronaldo is class before the 75 minute and he tires. Raul is underrated... he's a great finisher. Robinho is a dribbling maestro! He's the only bright spot on an aging dragging team. That's why they are 6! Also, their bench is young but compared to the previous 5 teams... their bench is plain )(*@#)(!
7. Juventus
In the world, they are probably the most respected club right now. They and Chelsea are easily among debates of the best. In Winning Eleven... they are not elite. I'm going to get lots of shit for placing them 7th from die hard Juve players but their progression on attack is too slow. Ibram can dribble but he's not fast. Trezeguet can shoot but he is a victim of kicking the ball to a defenders protruding leg. Nedved is great but his only help in MF on moving the ball is Camo and its not enough. Vierra and Emerson are def horses. But offensively, they are those slow horses that refuse to take initiative offensively. Defensively! They are awesome but their offense lacks pace. Makes for ugly games and not a lot of chances. I only like Mutu for them. He's quick, finishes! Maybe its the drugs he does but he's the only life for Juve in the game once Miccoli moves to Benefica. (Let all the haters chime in now, I just think Juve in WE sucks!)
8. Bayern Munich
They are good but like Juve, they aren't offensively charged like the other teams mentioned. Their def is strong but their midfield doesn't win big battles like the top 5 teams on the list do. Ballack, Schwast, Deisler etc... are good with the ball but they have a hard time fighting to get it. Their forwards are class at shooting and heading but lack the top end speed that is vital for this German team that doesn't move forward rapidly.
I know they are dull but they are so effective. So if you want to enjoy the game do not play with milan. But if you want to win most of the time take milan.Estill said:Yer Inter should be in the top 5. For me I find AC Milan a bit dull and too defensive. Shevchenko is great to play with but I prefer the attacking class of Barcelona or Madrid.
If you like action and speed take inter.az243 said:I haven't played Inter Milan enough to tell you how I truly feel about them. So far, I find that the team lacks chemistry... but after I figure out how they should be used, imma give you a follow up on where they oughta be on the list.
