Yep, probably the best regen I've ever found.

Sickest thing is that I didn't even find him. My scout recommended him to me during a backroom meeting. Pretty crazy considering every summer I scour the planet for good u19's and u21's.

where's his speed ? :(

i've got a guy named jonathan cristaldo...he's 22 and i have so high hopes to fill dp's shoes
He doesn't need to be too fast. He's 6'4". Plus he has incredible technical and quite good mental attributes for a 17 yr old, not to mention the balance and nat. fitness. He's going to be a Target Man playing alongside Neymar and he'll improve before he hits 23 anyway. I needed a big guy to dominate the air.

My three center forwards, Dzeko, Altidore and Lukaku, all got injured for two months within the span of two matches in late March. All right before CL matches and crunch time in Serie A. So I'm using Neymar as a lone striker and hoping he doesn't get injured.

Fucking figures. Got knocked out of the CL in quarters, probably because of this.

How is Krasic doing if you buy him?

I never went after him.
Sublime. He pretty much has the same character in the game as he does in real life. You kinda have to show him the way and he's more than willing to adapt to new styles and techniques. After a season he's pretty much priceless.

Btw, I've successfully trained Coentrao to be a AML and he's pretty good at it too. Most of the big teams are after him :D

Ben Arfa on the other hand is a hard man to please. A diva really.

I fined Grosso 2wks wages after a red card 3 days after I sold him to Real for 6m for the next transfer window. He felt "fine was unfair as I'm being singled out because I am leaving the club".

:lol:

He was so right, too.

I'm in my third season at Benfica and I've got a pretty big transfer budget and I'm def. looking to get a pair of solid wing backs in order to challenge for the CL.

Any suggestions? Keep in mind I'm not a "big" club so I can't attract just anyone + most of the good wing backs already play for the big teams. Also, how do I find regens? :confused:

Anyway to improve Neymar's shooting? He's an amazing player, but he isn't a good shooter for his ability. I've been training him at it but he still isn't getting much better. Although, it must be said that he is playing as a backup role until next year. Maybe that's it.

Oh, and... :seven:

I have Neymar also.

I just put him on a shooting intensive training schedule, slightly modified from what i use for all my strikers. His finishing is only a 13 but he still bangs them in. 30+ for the last two years. I'll post a pic of the training when I can.

guys i need some help, i've started my second season with juventus ( won the league on my first season) but some how i'm having a few problems with:

1- my back line doesn't really tackle opponents ( i leak goals with chilleni and otamendi :() should i set the definsive line to be deeper?? or shall i go to indivual settings and make my entire back line close down the entire pitch instead of area?? also which is better zonal marking or man marking??

2- i have hulk up front whats the setting i should have for him?? complete forward, deep lying forward, etc? and how do u guys know which option to use bec its pretty tricky for me to get it right unless i keep changing every time i start a match.

i play 4-2-3-1 (asymmetric )

1) Don't let them close down the entire pitch, that would be suicide. On the individual opposition settings make sure you close down and tackle hard on the attackers. If you're playing a fast team don't use a high line.

2) I'd probably use him as a target man and hold up the ball for the midfielders.
