atf487 v tf53
Australia 0 - 2 Finland
'29 Forssell (FIN)
'61 Hyppia (FIN)
can't get the second one to upload...header off a corner
Man, frustrating match, I felt like I played well even with 10 men at the end. tf53 capitalized on my mistakes though

At least get the man's name right (Hyypiä)ATF487 said:
I felt like I pummeled you in the first half, but couldn't capitalize on my chances. You had a couple solid opportunities to score in the first half, and the two post shots near the end had me on the edge of my couch. Good game.
Shogun Pain v Sneaky77
Denmark 2 - 0 Mexico (AET)
'94 Kahlenberg (DEN)
'118 Lovenkrands (DEN)
Good game but have to say I got lucky to win the match considering Sneaky had the majority of possession and the better chances at goal. I created very little and my second goal was pure luck. A random A pass somehow turned into a glorious through ball for Lovenkrands :lol.

Ireland (AstroLad) 1 - 0 Ecuador (younghov)

gg hov passing is just so damn brutal on these settings it's like you can't go more than 5 feet with these teams. at the end there no matter what I did, pass, clearance, lob, it all just went right to your guys. made for some tense moments.

Yeah I'm interested in another tournament. The World Cup tournament might of fell a little flat due to the lack of quality teams available and thus most matches probably lacked a bit of quality (I know a few of mine have).
Probably best to stick to the top teams if manual passing is going to be in the rules again as it kills the flow of the game when people on your team fail to make a 5 yard pass as their stats are too low :lol.

I'd like to be involved in the next tournament please
i don't think it's the semi i think it's the pro passing or whatever it's called. makes passes uggggly and is a stupid system. i've personally never felt that semi/auto is that much of a difference except a little on shots (and a lot on crosses, auto makes them worse) but people freak out about it so w/e

Whose the guy in your avatar? Ferdinand?
I think to keep things fresh next one should basically be the opposite of the two we've done. No restrictions on controls. Uberteams (pick any team you want, though I guess we could exclude Real Madrid since that team seems to really irk people). And then just do Champions League format. We should also make a post on the Gaming side or something to solicit some new blood.
Just my suggestion as I said as long as I have the time I'm down for whatever.

I think that is what has been discussed so far. I was thinking we could allow the choice of only Champions League teams.
A Finnish pop singer called Lauri Tähkä. Not a huge fan, but the gif was too priceless not to use. At least he's done one good song with one of the best Finnish rap acts.Meus Renaissance said:

Agreed on all counts.
I'm down with either league or tournament, although I would probably prefer a tournament. People love to quit regular leagues once they drop to the lower part of the table and know they can't catch up.
If we do CL, we can play each team in our group twice (home and away), then proceed to a normal tournament like the WC. We could even do home and away in the elimination stages, but I'm okay with keeping it simpler.
hey sneaks if you want to why don't you just post a new thread on gaming
FIFA 11 (360) Champions League Sign-Ups
And then we can sign up there and maybe attract one or two new people. I figure anyone still playing feefs now is a fairly serious player unlike the people who play it for a week or two when it comes out.
I figure set the limit at 16 right? Would be nice to have an even 16. if we go over we can then waitlist.
Occasionally that kind of stuff will get bumped back to online but imo that's ludicrous since the entire point of sign-up threads is to get new blood and no one browses online.

That thread is dead. We may be better off starting a new thread announcing Sign-Ups like suggested.

Yeah I'm around and was on last night until about 11pm EST. I'm in the UK so anytime you cant make it on until late it creates a bit of a problem. I should be around to play later on tomorrow - 4pm EST is 9pm GMT so that wont be too much of a problem.
If we dont play tomorrow I will be online for the next few days after between 4pm and 11pm EST so that should give us a decent enough window to get our game going.
