How's your FIFA 13 career mode going?

He's younger, and has better strength, speed, and stamina. It was a minor upgrade at best, but I think it was pretty savvy. I also want to replace Marko Marin, he doesn't play well for me. Any suggestions?

I have found that Lucas fits in perfectly with Chelsea, not sure if you have that kind of money. Dzagoev is great too, and much cheaper. In all honesty though I would save your money and pick up Lucas. He can play any of the AMs(assuming you use a 4-2-3-1) and he can also play Lampard's position

I bought Lucas in my Chelsea career but and keeping Marin because he is so fun to play with because of his speed and a game changer off the bench for me. I don't score many goals with him but he blows by people and I can create chances with him when the other team is tired.

Yeah I keep Marin as well, he is a solid sub

I bought Lucas with just cash

Ended up trading Sturridge for Neymar

Next order of business will be getting rid of Mikel because, just like in real life, he is wildly overrated and not very good.

Probably bring in Pogba and a CM, maybe Verrati

I got rid of Mikel as well and used some of his cash to buy Pique.

By the way does anyone know if a player is unhappy with playing time do they have to play every minute of every game until he is happy ? Or can he be subbed out ? Wondering this because Oscar was unhappy with the playing time and I started him like 6 straight matches and he was so tired I had to sub him and he never said he back to being happy.

I think you don't always get a message when they start feeling better about playing time. In my experience playing time complaints are directly linked to starting.

Played through the first season with Nottingham Forest. Ended up in 5th place on the table. Lost to Blackpool in the playoffs. I really was not interested in going to the Premier League that season anyway with players averaging about 70 in overall by the end of the campaign.

So the strategy was to allow for more growth on ratings and shoot for the Premier League. But I hit a slump, find myself 12th in the Npower Championship in October.

Been trying full manual controls. I really see some beautiful plays in that mode that I don't seem to be able to pull off in assisted, especially crosses. But I also give away too many easy passes.

Having fun however but I have to move up in the standings, I have some great young players I bought and want to see them mature.

Has anyone been able to buy Ronaldo?
