Do you guys see this in the game, world class players being trashed and their talent getting wasted because they get no game time, because of the format the team is using etc. like in my game 2012 he was benched by manu and he is getting benched by ac milan now and his extremely unhappy and i might sign him, this is sickening

who are you talking about?

but yeah, it happens all the time. which doesnt bother me, it's a good opportunity to sign someone top shelf on the cheap - in my last game i was just raking in great talent like Pirlo on the super cheap because they were sitting round doing not much.

i love that Barcelona do that, the last couple of games i've played they've let Dos Santos rot as a back up player and i've picked him up on a free at the end of season two.

thanks barca!

They've benched C. Ronaldo?? Who they hell do they have playing on the wings then?? There is nobody better than him in the game so dont understand that one!!

Anyway, A.C. Milan are bloody good at doing that anyway. They're doing it with Gourcuff irl. The guy is an amazing talent but they insist on signing older players like Emerson when they promised Gourcuff that they wont sign anyone else in midfield and will give him more chances. Idiots! Still, its good for the others I suppose. He'll get fed-up (already said he'll consider leaving in the summer if he doesnt get more playing time) and someone will snap him up for cheap. Just praying its Arsenal as he'll be brilliant in our team imo. :thup:

they dont play left and right midfield, they play 3 central midfielders

Milan usually play some tight in 4-3-2-1 with no wingers in my game. not that that's an excuse because you've got to find space for Ronaldo in your squad....

as for Gourcuff. Arsenal should have signed him before he went to Milan, we were interested for ages then just let him slip to milan. i think we were still smarting from Francis freaking Jeffers at that point though..
