should I start Brad Friedel or Tim Howard?

I CANT DECIDE THEY BOTH WON FIFA
>> Anonymous
I'd say Howard. I'm an Evertonian so I'm slightly biased, but our defence was pretty solid last year with the likes of Lescott, Jagielka and Yobo so he's likely to keep more clean sheets.

I did this last year and sucked horribly. Even when Ronaldo and Torres were getting their hat tricks and I was getting like 200 points or some shit, I was still like in 3004th place or something.

This year I loaded up my forwards and midfielders but have the shittiest defenders possible. Most of them don't even play. Oh well.

you can never legislate for injuries and suspensions to your first teamers, and unless you wanna risk losing points by making more than one transfer per week, it's a good idea to have reasonable (but not great) subs

I placed 30 000th last season.

My hints?

Go big on defense and a goalie. They offer the best value. Right now, I have three 7.0 defenders.

Go small on forwards. Get one over 9 max, if that. don't use three forwards, scoring goes against them.

Don't get Ronaldo this season. Look at it this way:

Ronaldo and a cheap player - 18.5 together. He's also very unsettled at United, and it could be possible that he'll have another great season, but it's unlikely. Fabregas + Bentley is one example of a higher-scoring combo (last year) without that dead weight.

Pay attention to scheduling and plan ahead. Note bye weeks, and runs against hard or easy teams.

Be mindful of preseason games. Managers will be testing their formations, and throwing new players in the mix. Shoe-ins may be out, and you may also get surprised by former bench warmers.

Defenders that take free kicks are dangerous.

Goallie: Van der sar
Defenders: Laursen Lescott Ferdinand Caragher
MIdfield: Jenas Gerrard(C) Downing Kranjcar
Forward: Defoe Alves
Subs: Walker huddlestone Bendtner Meite
My starting XI totalled 1580 points but Defoe and Alves weren´t really around for the first half of the season so i think 50 more points for alves and 30 for defoe. Also Downing isn´t a player thats surrounded by media and seems to do really well fantasy wise.

because if you have decent subs and their playing against shit teams like Hull City, and your starter is playing against ManU, you're going to want to play your sub instead.

Messed around with mine a little since there are no transfer penalties to the first game. Happier now. Thought I'd take a risk on Jo instead of Defoe or Benjani. And hope Nasri is an instant starter in north London same goes for for his derby rival Luca Modric. If Berba goes United I've got only got the two key back players so I don't go over the limit anyway. Considering Young for Barry because a ridiculous 19mil irl might move his game value up.

I don't think you understand. Your subs dont get you points. You have to put them in your first 11 to get points. So while your decent-good players are playing Man United, your shit players will still be shit, maybe getting a couple of points but them not counting towards you.

Just get the lowest cost subs possible and then you can be like me and buy Fabregas, Rio, Berba etc
