That's because about ten years ago the English game lacked pace, so then the academies, FA etc looked to correct that by bringing in loads of fast lads, but also forget to teach the kids the other skills.
i have the beta but played a couple of games, got about 12 first team injuries so problem there i think. Gunna put it down till its all ironed out...probably in about the 5th patch!
game seems the same as the last one, just touched up the game graphics and a few menu screens but haven't played enough to find out if anything major has changed with the game yet.
I downloaded the Beta, played for 5mins as had to go out the door, but what has changed apart from players etc being at different clubs? All the start up screens the same and stuff.
I'll play more later.
England at the world cup - yes please...important for me. Hate watching tournies without us in it, even if we do struggle! Unlikely to happen but i'm sure if we did win it people on here who said they don't give a toss will be on the bandwagon!
Saints lose at OT not the end of the world for me. Can't see why we can't have both though
He is a flair player, will kop too much flak from this board within two games for not setting up 10 goals in that time etc etc.
I wouldn't want him here just because I don't think he would improve the squad.
Didn't think he was playing too badly.
And people are confusing the thread - no one is saying Wilshire is as good or has the potential to be as good as Zidane lol
but he became one of the greatest of all even with smoking...so does it matter that much?
Personally I don't care if our player smoke, drink, eat ****...as long as they perform to their abilities.
Generally his short passes when winning the ball make it, barring a couple. 2nd half especially vs Palace, he got excited and tried first time through balls from distance a lot more and it was pretty frustrating. Just give a simple ball to MS or the full backs. Makelelelelele made a whole career out of this.
