If I can stay up!
Got a packed day tmrw, F1, football, maybe a bit of cricket and then NFL into the early hours.
Might set my alarm for 4.30am and try and get up just for the main event. Hope Belfort knocks Jones out COLD.
Have to buy a EA SPORTS Season Ticket, basically gives you early access to many of EAs sport titles before the release and other benefits.
I pre-ordered my copy from GAME UK.

In case anyone missed it last night Awesome Animals has started a thread for the 360 FIFA 13 Pro Clubs.

1 in a million that happens, but you never know. Really wish he was fighting Hendo instead for some reason I feel it'd be 1 in 999,999 if Hendo was fighting....

If your feeling is that the game was well balanced and struck down the middle, then it makes no sense to say that the team who scored the deciding goal didn't deserve to win.
Deserve is such a stupid term in football. The team who score the most goals deserve to win. Out scoring the opponent is the sole aim of the sport after all.
Edit:
There's not a stat in Stokes favor. I agree they done well, but this idea that one team doesn't deserve to win is absurd.

Damn you.
Just for this weekend. Villa have been pretty poor so far, I've been impressed by lambert, and you never know when Stoke will keep a world class/almost world class player quiet, so that ruled Hazard out
Shame Etherington's getting more and more injury prone, was always good for the odd goal or assist for fuck all expenditure
Still got 7 left to play as well, hopefully I can start inching up the table

Do you get a physical copy early or a dl?
You still have to buy the game separately after the early access ends. You pay £20? for a week of fifa.
No one embedded my image! So no one won the MCFC goody bag I was going to give to the lucky individual who carried out my request.

Kun Aguero is ready. His body is ready.

Unlikely but I live in hope.
Tbh the last few cards have generally been disappointing. I feel like Dana needs to get shit on lock. So many awesome fights have fallen through.
I agree with you in general but I don't think it's true that the team which wins deserves to win. Depends how loosely/strictly you want to push "deserve" but there are cases when a side clearly should have won but they just got bad luck or whatever.If your feeling is that the game was well balanced and struck down the middle, then it makes no sense to say that the team who scored the deciding goal didn't deserve to win.

Today wasn't one of those days though, Stoke didn't do enough. Chelsea earnt the win fair and square.
Bale is my captain, come on Bungie!
I need to find some value. My midfielders are all 6.5m at least. Cheapest striker is 7m. Adam was glorious in that year at Blackpool, 5m or something and he got loads of points.

Chelsea did well to get the goal and Mata's assist was superb, but for 85 min Stoke kept Chelsea at bay, and that's enough for me to say that Stoke did deserve a tie from this game.
And as for stats, I'd really not look at them and just focus on the game itself. Barcelona v Chelsea says a lot about how much stats matter.

You download the game and get to play until the disc is released onto stores.
This.
Holy shit at today's FF points,
Clarke -2 Dyer -2 and Michu 1.
Well at least my other FF team play tomorrow.

So Bayern is already champion for you or what? Because Hannover and Schlake surely won't play for the title.
Terrible? 37 points in the first, 36 in the second. By that definition, the whole season was terrible.
Yeah, the difference being that we had to replace 2 important players and got about that amount for those two, while Bayern only got rid of shit players.

Agreed. But I was specifically relating to today's game. Were there was much of a balance, with edge in our favor.
I'm quoting stats having just watched the game. I'm using the two in tandem and not resting all my point on the stats. The game, as watched, was fairly split down the middle. We had our moments and Stoke had theirs. In the end it came down to a single goal. Which we scored, thus, we deserve the win. End of story.
The stats were simply to give a clear look at the game we just watched, and on the balance, we deserved to win.
They added tight shirts on Fifa 13. Just saw a video of Robben in game, looks exactly like him haha.
edit;
Are the actual jerseys like that?
Impact v Sporting KC match starting soon. This match will pretty much determine whether or not Montreal will stay in the playoff race.
Robben's? Yeah. It's like a signature look.

Nice touch with the CL final print on it
Fuck =(
lol
Did you see Reus? He looks badass. (Fifa 13)
The demo's feedback took away all my desire to play it. Might still buy it if the reviews are decent. RE can't just die like that.

Yeah, he looks great. Wish they would do it with the whole team. Most of them look like shit and even some scanned players look strange. Bender still has the strange red-ish hair and Kuba the long hair from like two years ago.

Kevin Nolan is a canny lazy, overweight footballer... but he knows when to score.

Dreadful player, like Lampard if he was about a tenth as good. Good goalscorer though

Four straight defeats
Milan should give Dave Jones another 8 games and if he fails to win 5 of them he should pull the trigger.
Bothroyd is a lazy bag of shite that needs sending back to QPR.

Put him into my Fantasy Team today as it was just 'one of those things' he'd score. Like Marian Pahars or Gus Poyet scoring against Newcastle.
