Alright, I believe I finally fixed my router woes. It was harder than usual because I have my Laptop connected wireless with an ethernet cord running to the 360. Now I can continue my ascension to the top of Group A.
I'll be on tonight after 8pm.

I couldn't contend with Ronaldo and Simao's speed. Maybe if I spent half an hour with the custom tactics I could have figured a way to counter his serious speed advantage, but as it stands on default, I just get beat too easily on through balls, and I can't execute them on offense. Now I know what it felt like to play me in season 1 as Man U.
i'll update it later tonight!
if croatia is on "safe", they won't make a lot of runs and you shouldnt be making through balls. and to defend through balls, make sure you dont have the defense set to "offside trap". Portugal and Argentina are really fast, so i'd put it on "cover" to reduce through balls. or maybe play your backline "deep" to reduce the space for the opponent to run on to the ball.
thats how i beat you in the season 1 playoffs

Well, I went out fighting. I was outmatched, but Croatia are a scrappy bunch.
Portapotty, 6, Croatia 4 (it was really a one goal game, but Ronaldo got his 4th goal of the game in the 90th minute)
I worked my ass off. I think that game aged me by 6 months. So much for me being ready to go to bed. Now my heart rate is fucked.
Port - Quaresma x2 Ronaldox4,
Croatia - Petric x2, Corluka x2 Kovac

Good games Fifty. You gave me a scare a couple of times.
After that clubs game we played last night it reminded me that f we're doing EPL next I might go for Middlesborough. . .for some crazy reason I've been picking them non stop in ranked matches and I've beaten the likes of Barca, Inter, Man United, Arsenal and even Spain comfortably with 3-0, 4-0s' the problem is that pretty much all of my opponents have quit out on me before the games were over (i guess they don't want that record on their EASportsworld page)
Downing + Aliadiere + Tuncay + Alves is the shit :lol

Uh, he's not a "pure" Croatian, so he has to earn his minutes. This one-named wonder spent 16 years in Brazil. As far as I see it, he'd be on their team if he was good enough. Which he isn't. Because he sucks. Plus, his name makes him sound like a gay hairdresser.
"Eduardo..more mousse please!" "Eduardo..curl the ball like you curl my hair!"
I put him in in game 2, when things got ugly, and he found many ways not to score, even as Robert "I'm a defender, right?" Kovac scored in the 80th minute.
P.S: Sneaky and I should be playing on Wednesday. I was out tonight (Monday) and he's busy on Tuesday.
ah well, i went down fighting. just when i started getting a grasp on how to play this damn game. have fun with the rest of the league all!
im sure at least half of those 20 shots were crap. took you 100 minutes to score, and then i tied it up a few minutes later.
dont be mad that the worst player in the league held you to a draw after you talked all that shit. :lol

I thought I hit the post/bar like 3 times? Maybe I'm just losing it. Ah well, I'll probably lose in the first round of playoffs anyway. :lolDaigoro said:
