New to Soccer and FIFA

Friend gave me his copy of FIFA 11 because he got 2 copies for his birthday. I don't know much about soccer and I was wondering what would be a good team to start with in the FIFA equivalent of a Dynasty/Association mode. I'd like to play with a good team in the Premier league. I used to play a bit of goalkeeper back in elementary school so to narrow it down I want the team with the best young goal keeper.

lol... Their keeper isn't young, but I say Everton all the way! You know you want to represent the US with Tim Howard!

Yup, Howard isn't young, but he is American.

As for young, you could go with Arsenal. Their keeper Szczęsny is 20...but then again...

If you're willing to avoid the Premier League and check out the nPower Championship, I'd recommend Leeds United. I find it a great challenge attempting a Leeds United resurrection into grand European tourneys.

Additionally, they have a class act and talented keeper, 24yo Kasper Schmeichel. I was a fan of his father, Peter Schmeichel, when I was in grade school. Nothing beats his Danish accent when speaking English.

EDIT: Episode of Football's Greatest - Peter Schmeichel
Part 1
Part 2

I too have gone the Leeds path to try and restore their former glory.

As much as it pains me to say it, I would also take a look at Man City. I find it rather cheap to start a CM with a team that has 100 million+ in funds, but if you're looking for the best young keeper in the EPL, Joe Hart would have to be it.
