If you can either hit the ball straight away or get control and pass it quickly to a team mate it still seems to work as the keeper will still be making his way back toward the net.

Its all a matter of opinion but in pure footballing terms I am in no doubt that Maradona would wipe the floor with Pele when both were in their prime. I don't think there would be any argument if Diego hadn't of snorted his career away or cheated the English out of WC'86. 2 league titles for...

Brazillians ain't known for their defending so perhaps that might have had something to do with it too, when games end up 7-4 you know something is wrong. It's like Henrik Larsson playing for Celtic in the Scottish league - he scores up to 50 a season in a poor league where there is only one...

Anyone noticed how easy it is to do Beckham from the halfway line shots? When the keeper comes out to clear the ball and that clearance happens to fall to your feet it is quite easy to score though having said that it is also quite easy to put it into the stand. Just noticed it last night by...

over-rated, 1200 goals? he must have counted the ones he scored in training too. Heh heh. Played with the Classic Brazil team last night for the first time, I have to say I'm well impressed apart from the fact that Garrincha missed an open net from 6 yards - think I need a bit more shooting...

He isn't one of the top stars obviously but he's quite useful for depor

Don't think it matters, Juventus are so good that any tactic or formation will work a treat but with Davids in holding midfield you could try a more attacking game.

You gotta remember that Maradona took an average side to the final twice, in 86 his genius virtually won it singlehanded and in 90 that team was awful but he pulled them through. Pele on the other hand played in great Brazil teams climaxing in the 70 win (that team would have won it without him...

Not fair I ain't got one yet but when I do you'll all be the first to know.

it isn't really playing if you're on auto-pilot the whole time. 8-0 wins are a waste of time as you can just run straight past the players and rifle it into the net from all angles. Where's the challenge in that? Suppose it does give a bit of shooting practise though.

erm get the update disc with infinite cash, yes it's cheating and all that but c'mon so is playing 1 star cup games

thought there might be secret stadia to buy in the shop, you can get everything else except that and collina anyway

Is there any extra stadia to get in the game apart from the ones initally provided, if so what are they?

You know I've taken a real liking to Diego Tristan from Deportivo in the new game, he is quite impressive in the air from what I've seen (only played a few games with him so far). Take a look at him when you get a chance.

And theres me thinking you were Australian. Dave Unsworthinho is without doubt the greatest left back the world has ever seen. Tackles like Beckenbaur, speed of Henry, close control of Zidane, dribbling ability of Georgie Best, header like Gullit and a left foot to die for. I always rated...

Stands to reason the bigger the guy the easier it is to win the headers. Koller is excellent beacuse that extra height advantage means you will more often than not win the aerial battles and if you can get someone like Beckham swinging in the crosses you should be scoring in no time.

Or alternatively you could just try passing to someone on your team instead of blindly hitting the ball forward. Use the radar to spot your players or failing that just lump it up the pitch or out of play. Passing in the new game is certainly harder as all passes have to be spot on or the other...

Yeah gotta love those guys. I would normally only play against human opposition which I find is completely different from the cpu so the crosses are a lot more difficult to pull off so variety is indespensible. The cpu after a while is very predictable so more often than not it gets quite easy...

Also means you can get more attackers into the box and have more control to put the ball exactly where you want it. I suppose it depends on how many players are in the box at that time, the early cross works well if your attacker is in space in the box but unless it's big Koller he probably...

I always considered it easier to get to the by-line and cross as it means more of your attackers can get into the box for the cross plus you have more control over where you want the cross to go. You could also go for a deep cross and let your striker at the back post head pass it back into the...
