Just my 2c
Don't play on anything lower than Top Level.
I used to play on regular / amateur (2/3 star thing) all the time, as one of my mates used to play at that level, and he got me into the game.
Since I bought my Xbox360, and got PES2009 straight away, I started playing on the same level. Then moving up to the higher levels was really frustrating.
One day I just decided, screw this, I'm gonna start playing at Top Player for everything, and did.
I haven't looked back.
Just got with the highest level of difficulty, and stick with it, it forces you to play well.
My passing moving, scoring, defending (well not in 2010) has gotten so much better, and I won;t play on any level lower than Top Player now.
Sure, some games are still quite difficult, even against crap team (I was Liverpool, and couldn't beat Portsmouth no matter what I tried lol) but its much more fun.
So thats my advice - just play at Top Player, struggle with it for a short time, and don't look back. You'll thank me for it
Totally agreed. And by doing this, it will be more fun playing the new yearly version of pes, since it's always difficult in the beginning..
So more challenging, and therefore when you master it it feels great!

Stella Dave i think your very right in your first post!Since PES5 ive played on top player,but ive always when ive bought the latest edition played at a lower level and worked my way up.Ive had a go on top player on the demo whilst i was playing every night on 2009 top player.On the demo i got beat 1.0,so it is i feel much harder (and on buying the game found the same,thankfully!)
Ive unlocked some leagues on beginner (COM is inane,not making any inroads,keeper stops on the line)
Ive unlocked some more leagues on amatuer (COM can complete more attacking passes but rarely scores,keeper still useless)
Ive played on normal (COM pressures more,keeper is active)still comfortably winning tho!
Now having a go on proffesional (COM trys to keep the ball,keeper breaks out quite fast)
It is quite a step up,but a challenge is what the games about!
So Stella Dave i totally agree with you.I also feel this is good,because to be honest last years game (especially over PES 5)was far too easy.
I just hope that im just finding top player too easy by about Xmas,so that gives me 9 months too totally spank PES'S ass before the new one comes out!
Thanks Konami,youve made some things better and a few things worse,but overall thanks for making this game challenging again!(for me and stella dave anyway!)

Yeah on PES6, 2008,.2009 (can't remember earlier lol) normal is fine, you beat it most times but it does put up a fight.
In PES2010 normal doesn't even go for 50/50 balls! but Pro is a huge step up. There needs to be a happy medium.

My 2 Cents..
i play on top player with either Barcelona(ML) or Spain. I still manage to dribble quite well, passing is still good. I have played i think 9 League games and 5 CL Games only conceded 5 goals scored around 35 in all those matches. The opposition is lucky to have 2 chances a game against me. Now I don't know whether i am good or just lucky?
Tips (maybe?)
- Avoid running next to an opposition when dribbling, it makes it easier for them to push you off the ball.
- When the opposition has the ball in their half start closing them down quickly with Square, X and R1 or whatever is your running button. I have scored at least 5 goals by dispossessing a defender and going through one and one.
- One and ones - try to always place the ball (Use R2 when shooting to place the ball)
- Passing - don't force anything, keep it simple and quick. a good way to get your team forward do the one two pass but don't complete it. I.e. pass and hold L1 so that the player who passed it runs forward.
- Crossing - an example scenario, outside the box and your strikers on the ball use the one two pass I mentioned above and cross early more time than not your on rushing striker is going to get to the ball first.
- When running against the opposition try to get shoulder to shoulder with them and press X and every now and again to slightly nibble at their heels.
I dont play BAL becuase i dont enjoy it at all so i cant help there.

Hey there, I realise this is an old thread but did you ever get better on Pro level? I've just got PES 2010 (i was put off 2011 by friends) and I too am having the same problem when moving from normal to pro. I try doing tricks to get past players but they never work. I try passing quickly but the ball ends up with the opposition. Very annoying!
Also, I see you used an SPL option file. Can I use that SPL option file along with the arsenald one I'm already using?

Yes there is a big difference in regular and professional, I only play BAL and at also in normal mode I would just run past players and score double hatrics which made it really boring. Changed the game level to pro in the transfer window and struggled my ass off, but after some practice, i can still score a lot. You can still dribble past defenders (control your pace!)
difficulty levels are fine, only thing I hate is the refereeing in that game. They litteraly make red card tackles from behind which can brake players legs but ref says "fair tackle" omg.... XD
