Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

@Chicobass Bony can be a difficult mark. I have gone against him a few times in different careers on fifas over the years so I definitely agree with you. So you can understand my jubilation when I saw he was at Swansea.

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

Hey guys. I have some bad news. I have had my assistant manager at work leave and so it leaves me with just 2 members of staff including me and with studying from home as well my game time is going to be next to nothing and even less time to update on here. So I won't be about much at all. If I get chance I will try and carry on my Stoke City career and do briefer updates if you guy's are still interested.
Sorry

OCTOBER


YORK 0


SHREWSBURY 1
Collins 38’

Shrewsbury came away with another win continuing their wonderful start to the season. It was their star man and captain James Collins who got the goal; his shot taking a huge deflection before finding the net. An injury forced him off at half time and it showed as Shrewsbury struggled over the finish line. York came ever so close to grabbing a late equaliser, hitting the post and forcing the ‘keeper into a number a decent stops. Nevertheless, an important 3 points for Wilson and his men.


J. PAINT TROPHY

HARTLEPOOL 0


SHREWSBURY 3
Grant 21’
Vernon 83’, 90’

It was another dominant performance from the Shrews under new manager Wilson, as they eased into the next round of the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy with a comfortable win over Hartlepool. Bobby Grant opened the scoring with a snap shot effort which proved to be too hot to handle for the ‘keeper. Hartlepool cranked up the pressure during the second period, but they were caught out on the break as Scott Vernon claimed his 1st and 2nd goals of the season to set Shrewsbury up against Crawley in the quarter final.

Vincent 5’
Frampton OG 11’
Vernon 16’
Grant 31’, 40’, 79’

WIMBLEDON 1
Pell 30’

It was a truly amazing afternoon of football at New Meadow as Dean Wilson’s Shrewsbury put Wimbledon to sword in a 9 goal thriller. Bobby Grant stole the show with a first class hat trick including two contenders for goal of the season. Jack Grealish showed his class just after half time when the Dons simply couldn’t deal with his agility, leaking two goals to the loanee. Ashley Vincent grabbed his 1st of the season whilst Scott Vernon collected his 3rd goal in 2 games. It was a resounding win for the Shrews and one that helps out the goal difference tremendously.


MORECAMBE 0


SHREWSBURY 1
Akpa Akpro 83’

Shrewsbury town made it 4 wins from 4 in October as Jean Louis Akpa Akpro grabbed an 83rd minute winner at Morecambe. Both sides struggled to create openings throughout the duration of the match, but a loose pass allowed Grant in who squared it to Akpro. The conditions slowed the game down and restricted any flow to the match, so Wilson will be pleased that his side were able to walk away with the points without playing that well.


SHREWSBURY 1
Mangan 57’

CARLISLE 1
Dicker 45’

It was the battle between the top 2 in the league at New Meadow and it turned out to a feisty encounter with no less than 8 yellow cards. Carlisle created the better opportunities of the first half and Gary Dicker gave them a deserved lead going into the break. Not long into the second half came the major talking point of the match as Andy Mangan headed in from a corner even though the ball seemed to go out of play off of him. A degree of fortune for Dean Wilson’s side who remain top and unbeaten in the league this season.


OXFORD 0


SHREWSBURY 0

It was one of the more entertaining 0-0 draws of the season as both sides threatened either’s defence, but couldn’t take the chances. James Collins returned from a month’s absence for Shrewsbury but he struggled to keep up with the quick pace of play. Anthony Griffith offered the Shrews their best outlet going forward and should have scored in the opening minute but for a fine save. Oxford themselves had several chances to take all 3 points but couldn’t beat Leutwiler who was in fine form. Not a bad point for either side in reality.

Aged just 15 our Australian prospect has plenty of time to develop into a future star

Hyo Jin Han UNKNOWN- OVR 45-53 POT 64-76

This South Korean has been significantly underperforming at under 16 level and may be released unless he bucks up

Kang Jin Ahn GK- OVR 48-62 POT 76-94

A new addition to our academy has really shone so far. He is still only fifteen and if he performs well now, his future will be a good one

Champions League
Paris Saint-Germain 0 - 2 Hertha BSC
Calhanoglu 9', 64'

Hertha BSC continued their winning run in the Champions League after beating the group favourites PSG at Parc des Princes. The star performer of the game was Hertha's attacking midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu who has been amazing this season for the Berliners. The young midfielder scored in the 9th minute after cutting in the box from the left with a curling shot past Sirigu. PSG attacked a lot but Hertha's defence played a great game and they denied the French team from scoring. The second goal of the game was scored after the hour mark when Calhanoglu curled a free kick from the to the top left corner.

A really awaited game between the two title contenders ended in a goalless draw. For the first time since Ganchev's arrival last season the Berliners were on top of the game. Sadly they still weren't able to beat the Bavarians.


Player of the Month



Hakan Calhanoglu

Hertha BSC's player of October is Hakan Calhanoglu. He has been playing great football for the last few months but Alexandre Lacazette outshined him. Now the attacking midfielder showed clearly his qualities and he had some great moments this past month, including his two goals against PSG.



League Table

Press Conference


You are finally first after a great month. How do you feel about finally being in first?

I'm delighted and really happy. The guys have been playing really well and it's a pleasure to coach them. I really believe that the worst is behind us in the league and I think we have a really big chance on winning it.



You beat PSG in the Champions League and they are one of the best teams in the competition. Do you think you can win the whole competition?

I don't think PSG are one of the best teams. They have never made it to the semi finals and their team is unbalanced but they are not an easy team to beat. But in this competition everything can happen and to be honest I don't think we will win it. There is a chance and if everything goes our way...


Is it true that you received job offers from Belgium and France?

Yes, it is. To be more specific the job offers were about the national teams but like I have said earlier I have no interest at all in taking a job like that. Hertha is everything for me and I will work only with them. No more questions, i have to go.



Thank you for reading this post! I hope you have enjoyed it! Any feedback or suggestions will be appreciated!

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

I've been looking through these career modes for a few weeks now, and finally got FIFA 15 and an account on this site, so what better way to start a new game than with my traditional Swansea career? I'll probably begin posting updates now and again, maybe once or twice a week, once I get into the swing of things with a couple of online unranked matches. Anyone got any good sliders to suggest though, for someone who finds Pro too easy, and World Class too hard?

[jamiec47]

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

Kind of on the same boat. I've been away because my work productivity has been down in October so far. September was really busy with tons of shoplift activity but so far October has been tough so I'm trying to focus a bit more until it picks up.

I'm also taking a short break from Wimbledon. I think I got a little burnt out trying to get through all the games with the club and Scotland fast. I started playing Assassin's Creed 3 again to beat it now before I get PS4. That way I can get the new AC game as well. I also started a Guadalajara career just because I missed them but not posting it since it will also be my first FIFA '15 career which I plan on posting.

I'm still reading the posts here but haven't been able to post feedback as much lately sorry gents :/

Also kind of in the same boat. Had loads of coursework and one of my GCSE's which is an extra has to be self-taught so I've had less time for FIFA. I've been reading but not posting updates. However there will be one today.

what i usually do is start on world class, Then after usually a week or two i go to Legendary but i put CPU Sprint speed and acceleration to 49, and after a week of that i put it back to 50, I dont know but it works for me

Just tried this on matchday live...

Stoke City 3-1 Swansea City

Some stats for you
Goals: 3-1
Possession: 39%-61%
Shots: 3-21
Shots on target: 3-15
Corners: 1-7

I really need to put the goalkeeper quality down for the CPU. Begovic made several superb saves, one a 30-yard volley from Routledge, and Ireland cleared a Gomis shot that hit the bar off the line from a corner. Every shot they had, they scored, including a Peter Crouch half-volley from a stupidly acute angle that hit the post on its way in. Selling Fabianski in January for my career after that, no matter what.

Any other suggestions as to what I should do with the sliders?

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

Sent to Coventry
Season 1
FIFA 15

Match 17

Sheffield United 2-1 Coventry
Murphy 44
Nouble 45
Cuvelier 59

Your first loss of the season, how does that feel?

It is absolutely gutting. Murphy smashed in after a rare defensive lapse but when Nouble curled in that equaliser I was sure we'd at least leave with a point. It's such a shame, especially when that winning goal was caused by a man on the ground injured. I'm really disappointed with the referee for that, we lost points because of an awful decision.

Match 18

Coventry 2-0 Chesterfield
McQuoid 23
Roberts 44 (PEN)

And the return to status quo.

Yes exactly. McQuoid scored a stunner, curling it in and is seriously giving me a selection headache. I was especially impressed with Roberts. The 17 year old skipped past his man and was bought down in the box. It was like watching Ronaldo, the only way he could be stopped was by a foul. He will be an England international, mark my words. And then to score the penalty, so composed at such a young age. Incredible!

JP Trophy Area Quarter-Final

Yeovil 1-2 Coventry
Nouble 5
Swanson 23
Fernandez 63

And you advance even further into the competition you are dying to win

Yes. That early chip by Nouble was a touch of quality and, I'm not gonna lie, Swanson was the last person I expected to finish that curler from outside the box. The header from the Yeovil lad was disappointing, but we're through so it doesn't mean much.

Match 19

Oldham 1-5 Coventry
Bamford 13
Akpom 15
Forte 23
Akpom 24
Bamford 56
Tudgay 67

Well what can I say other than how do you feel about that result?

Disappointed. We conceded. No, in seriousness it was disappointing to concede but we were incredible. Patrick curled in the opener and I was delighted and then Chuba knocked in on his debut. Chuba responded immediately to that Forte header, showing why we brought him in with that amazing run and finish. Patrick scored again and Tudgay headed in to show how brilliant this side is.

Match 20

Coventry 3-0 Port Vale
Swanson 9
Nouble 18
O'Brien 51

Another great result. You seem to have gotten back on track after that result against Sheffield.

Yes. I am so pleased with this result. Swanson showed great bravery and dedication to block that drop kick and knock it into the back of the net was brilliant. The teamwork that led to Franks incredible finish was amazing. The quick passing followed by the backheel and then the curled into the top corner. And then O'Brien pulled that out the bag. 30 yards I think it was and he curled it past the keeper. Straight off the drills on the training ground, amazing.

Match 21

MK Dons 1-1 Coventry
Grigg 45
Johnson 67

You seem disappointed with this result

Yes I am. I am good friends with Chavez of Wimbledon and his rivalries become mine. When Grigg curled that in, I was shattered and I assume Chavez was as well. Johnson's scrappy finish got us a draw, but I'm not pleased.

I use Ron Mexico's slider set from the old gen slider section on this forum. Plays a very realistic game of football.

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

Used some other sliders I found on the internet this time, which helped me out a lot.

Computer:
48 Sprint Speed -CPU
48 Acceleration - CPU
48 Goalkeeping Ability - CPU
User:
51 First Touch Control Error - User
49 Pass Error - User

Finally, Nathan Dyer is faster than Shawcross!

Stoke City 1-2 Swansea City

Stats:
Shots: 13-11
Shots on Target: 7-9
Possession: 45%-55%

Heroics from Fabianski this time, with some brilliant saves, and Jefferson Montero was MOTM, scoring two goals and hitting the post another time, similar to Crouch, who once again scored one and hit the post with one more. I'll start my career with these sliders now.

If i would put enemy CPU Goalkeeper ability to 48 i would absolutely batter my enemies, There are just alot of weaknesses in the Gameplay of the goalkeepers that you gotta exploit (Chips, Long shots and Near Post usually does the trick), but if this suits more towards your playstyle, i would say go ahead, I would just abuse it way to much, Good luck with your career mode!
