Sigh, LOL.

I'm at work so can't check--but does scouting players on the GTN give you their workrates?

I am finding WR to be extremely critical in how I play--as I struggled in first CM game w/ Chelsea against Burnley (lol, drew 1-1).

I rarely use it to be honest. I just use the GTN. I will only use it to see what players are added or deleted in an update.

Wait wait wait, I agreed to the yes answer to the question of "do you think using sofifa is considered cheating". lol

I DO NOT use so fifa! lol

Re: Transfer Network | Tips

Saw someone posted this house rule in the Manager Mode thread

"1.I am not going to use the GTN and instead use sofifa.com in the 1st couple of seasons. I don't know enough about all the small leagues and sifting through all the GTN emails gives me a headache and really takes a lot of time. To offset the use of sofifa I can only sign players from the smaller leagues (ie no one from la liga, epl, series a ect ect)."

I like this, and think I will apply same/similar methods. I am still going to use the GTN, just not completely rely on it.

Re: Transfer Network | Tips

Sofifa is considered cheating in the literal sense, as it shows ratings and the highest rating a guy can develop to, with no consequence attached. But I say who cares? It's your game, scout however the hell you want.

I use both the GTN & Sofifa.

This is what I was thinking too, lol.

I also am thinking of 'trading' Diego Costa and Aguero in my Chelsea CM because I absolutely can not stand Costa and really like Aguero. I battle with the 'realism' issue--but again, it's my CM--who cares

Just an FYI you are going to have to give up more than Costa to get Aguero back in return. I have a manager mode where I am playing as Arsenal and I just wanted to get Kurt Zouma on loan for the full season. And Chelsea said no because they are rivals. I was pissed yet impressed at the same time because I needed a CB but I was impressed that type of stuff was in the coding.

Re: Transfer Network | Tips

I usually for the first season and the next summer transfer window go online and see what are the transfer rumors are for all positions, research them maybe throw in a few guys I like and know are gonna help me. But after that its a free for all, but since im not familiar with all the players since there are 1000s compared to 300 in nba I do go to Sofifa just to see what's out there.
And I dont see it as cheating, I mean the gtn and scouting in this game is horrendous compared to a real life scout. I see this as using your sources.

Hmm, I acquired Zouma cheap and without hesitation playing for liverpool. Probably because they felt sorry for us and knew we werent a threat


And NightRaven...That is cheating!

I don't know if I agree that it is cheating. I can relate to NFL scouting far better for my example--but when scouting prospects for the NFL, it is fair to estimate one's potential.

We don't KNOW that Andrew Luck will ultimately be better than Johnny Manziel--but we could argue that their expected potential would be significantly different. I think that using sofifa just helps in that regard as well--whereas we have no other way of knowing one's potential in the game.

Just my .02!

Yes we do!!! Luck is drawing comparisons to both Brady and Manning. Johnny Manziel is the next Ryan Leaf. Mark my words

Case in point. We should be able to see players' potential in Fifa same as it can be speculated in the NFL.

BTW, re: Johnny Football--I am oh so glad to see him falling flat on his face--as I expected. Way to go Browns--2 first round picks and you waste yet another one on a QB that will never pan out.

Par for the course.
