One of the coolest things I've noticed so far is that the matches in manager mode follow Juve's actual Serie A schedule this season. In every other FIFA game the order you play teams has been random.
Buying this game on Friday after work...only played 3 games in the demo, but couldn't really get used to the defending, but i was playing on World Class, so when i get the proper game, i'll start at a lower level so I get used to the defending
I really like the new defending mode. On FIFA 11 everyone just snuck behind the defender and crossed it to the guy across the goal and scored. Now it's almost impossible to score that way if you know how to properly defend using the new defense options.
