It's probs way to late for this but off topic of Albion can u please tell us that you can now choose which players u want to go up for corners defending and attacking! So many times a team has a great heading player (Cahill-everton) for example and he stands outside the box when blatently u need him in there to get it away/score

You can do that by creating set pieces. You can choose start positions and runs for individual players I think

Sorry for going waaaay off topic but is there any chance that FIFA12 online can drop this ridiculous scripted nonsense that's in 11? As someone has already stated playing the machine is extremely dull and playing online is frustrating in the extreme. Quitters everywhere and this daft feature that any game that'll take you over the next 'hundred points' has to be almost possible to score in! Drives me mad and it's completely unnecessary and POINTLESS.

Not too fussed really. Only things would be:
Make Noone and Bridcutt much better than on Fifa 11
Dunk and Caskey have very high potential to improve
And give Noone, Buckley, Lualua, Vicente and Mackail Smith lots and lots and lots of pace please!!!

Our team really is rapid going forward and should therefore be able to outpace nearly all championship defenders and a lot of premiership ones :)

Vicente was (79) last year in Fifa 11, so maybe (77) this time round? Difficult to tell really.
CMS (75)/(74): Very quick, very good finisher, and stamina has got to be near to 99 he just doesn't stop
Bridcutt (75)/(74): He is a ball winning CDM and everything works around him. Very good short passer and has good vision and tactical awareness.
Buckley & Lua Lua - (70)-(73): Both extremely quick but not great crossers of the ball. Both can finish. LuaLua has great control and lots of tricks and an extremely hard shot. Buckley doesn't have the best control.
Noone (70): Not the quickest but very skillful and can deliver a good cross. Good passer. Not the best finisher.
Hoskins (69): Not seen much of him yet to cast judgement!
Dicker (68): Very good passer and good vision, and pretty good tackler. Not very quick at all and not very attack minded.
Greer (72): Experienced centre back who is extremely strong and very good in the air. Positioning, passing, tactical awareness, organisation etc is immense.
Dunk (68): Although very young he is an exceptional talent. A bit naive you could say at times but his attributes apart from experience and all around awareness are pretty similar to Greer's.
Harley (69): Very promising player, potentially going to be extremely influential for us this season. FK & dead ball specialist who know's where the goal is and has great vision.
Calderon (70): A marauding RB very good going forward (pretty good finisher and goes up for corners), not brilliant defensively.
Painter (68): Very solid all round game, good going forward good at the back. Very rounded player who does his job very effectively without doing much fancy stuff!
El-Abd (68): Underated and was insanely good last year alongside Greer. Good passer, very strong.

Navarro, Elphick, Vincelot, Barnes - (66)-(68): Very good back up and very reliable and all round solid players.

Ankergren (67), Brezovan (63).

I'd say overall we play 4-3-3 but the beauty is we play a different system week in week out depending on opponents. We never know who will be starting and what formation we'll be playing!

Style definitely passing and very patient build up. No hoof ball just play the ball on the ground and lots of small passes.

On paper we would appear to be far stronger going forward with an abundance of quality midfielders both central and out wide, than we are at the back. But having said that our defence was immense last year and has carried on where it left off, so even though the names maybe arent as striking they certainly can match up to any other of the top defences in this league.

Hope this was all useful?! Thanks for stopping by really appreciate it can't wait til its released!

Probably think more in a sliding scale, with most of our squad being 63-68ish:

70+ Vicente, Bridcutt, Mackail-Smith, Buckley, Noone, Greer.
66-70 Harley, Calderon, Painter, El-Abd, Barnes, Hoskins, LuaLua, Dicker, Ankergren.
61-65 Dunk, Elphick, Vincelot, Taricco, Sparrow.
56-60 Forster-Caskey, Brezovan, Navarro, Bergkamp.
51-55 Agdestein, Poke, Smith, Cook, Barker

Please, please, please can Glenn Murray have bleach blonde hair and look absolutely nothing like Glenn Murray, as that was one of my favourite features of Fifa '11.

why aren't ALL stadiums for prem and championship teams on the game? would make it much better. sick of playing the same teams at the same boring stadiums year after year. p.s. sneak the AMEX on this year at least!... ;). Fifa have cracked the game play. its brilliant. so now its time to add to the whole experience which means proper stadiums, managers on touchline etc.

If you play online you will need to revise whether game play is brilliant, I just played Chelsea and i was Real Madrid but i couldn't beat any of Chelsea's back four with Ronaldo, there's something not quite right going on with Fifa 11. Improve this and ill be happy. Amex on the new game please !!

I find a lot of games won/lost are to do with the formations. For example, me and my mates have noticed its relatively easy to turn over Manchester United while playing as Aston Villa, because of the speed of the wingers and the lack of pace of United's back 4.

I know all the teams come with a 'regular' starting formation, but unless you tinker with it (which hardly anyone does), it can be hard to play a game against a team with a more suitable formation, rather than a team with better players.
