Fabregas is the best midfielder in the world right now. For the past 2 seasons its been Gerrard
Only slightly less wrong than the last guy.

Fabregas is the most in-form midfielder. Not the best yet and the vast majority of Arsenal fans that know the slightest bit about football will agree.

Gerrard hasnt been the best midfielder in the world at all. He was nowhere near being the best in the premiership the last 2 seasons.
5 sheerly average performacees follwed by 90th minute strike into the top corner to rescue a point for his team does not constitute the best midfielder in the world.

It's also a bit unfair to complain about Derby finishing in a safe midtable spot. Obviously it can't reflect real life, for a start, the season hasn't finished yet, and obviously the Derby players have to be made remotely competitive or no one would even play them!

Maybe they made one or two key signings, had a little bit of luck in some games, and managed to get their defence a bit more organised than in real life.

Obviously if the real Derby managed this they'd be able to pick up some points as well. The game isn't unrealistic just because it doesn't match the real leagues. Where would be the fun in playing if your team's performance was decided at the start of the season?!

[QUOTE] Many clubs (esp. Liverpool) have signed a few seemingly off the back of some of those performaces (e.g. Senegalese internationals after they beat France in the world cup).


diao and diouf were signed before the 2002 world cup...just to let you know

I think some players are overrated for sure, and also some underrated, but generally players are better represented than they used to be.

Anyone remember Cisse for Liverpool in FM06, he was like a GOD!!

The complete manchester united defensive lineup is overrated.
Way to solid! Almost impossible to score against.

Their fullbacks seems to possese some kind of magic, most of the times they join the attack and are instantly back at the defense to defend again. speed demons for some reason.

Gary neville constantly out running my fastest striker acc. 19 pace 17, sure

And when you get a shot on their is always the good (and) old van der sar making the most impressive saves. Jumping from the left post to the right.

and ofc ferdinand :s the godlike defender :s

Imho many fanboys of man utd @ Si

Erm Kevin Lisbie Scored a hatrick against Liverpool if I remember correctly and now is not anywhere near the Prem.
Don't think Lisbie has ever been that good on any CM/FM game. He's now playing for Colchester in the Championship after we released him in the summer, has scored a few so far.

i do agree with the forum starter a bit

because somtimes in my pre season friendlies i get players pacing out my defenders
or scoring long shots
or just dribbling wickedly
and when i go to their attributes they are really poor...
makes u wonder...
