Playing well at the moment, but without any final touch. Sounds oh so familiar

So predictable at the moment - just always the same ball out to the wings, pump it into the box and hope something happens.

We just cannot get near the ball at the moment. Their technique is way beyond ours.

Exactly. Technique is so important if we want to play possession football.

Get Hogg off for NRC or petrov

bollocks

Anyone else been playing Infinity Blade? Stunning graphics, fairly repetitive gameplay, but still pretty addictive

Yeah he's been on about retiring for ages...

City have said they'll refuse to sell Tevez. Probably just playing for a higher selling price, but if Tevez retires from football altogether, do City have any grounds for compensation?

They really need to fix the Hardline Pro bug asap. So many games you hear Sam Turret's being called in, but never see them on the ground because they've been swapped for a Chopper or Gunship killstreak.

Tevez is an oddball. He's so committed on the pitch, often compared to a terrier when chasing down a ball. Yet he's threatening and clearly ready to quit football altogether. If he does retire midway through a contract worth £286k p/w then you have to admire him putting family before money. Maybe money in football has become so disproportionate that he feels he's losing touch with what's important?

God this game is frustrating at times. Anyone else finding Agbonlahor to be a real waster of great chances? He seems to do the hard bit and make space and then slices his shots wide even if it just requires a simple slotted finish.

Anyway, I'm doing okay first season. Decided to block transfers in the first window - see how I'd do in the same situation as GH. Funnily enough, quite a similar injury crisis hit me in November. Got to January in mid table, and proceeded to spunk most of my £35m budget on M'Vila and Dzeko. The latter has been an absolute wizard since he signed. I'm 7th at the end of February, but optimistic about finishing top 6 with Dzeko banging in the goals. Everton are joint top of the league (pretty unrealistic!) and have only lost twice all season!

**** Injuries

I'd play as many senior heads as possible in this game...

-------------Friedel

Cuellar Collins Dunne Warnock

--------------Clark

Albrighton Ireland Downing

-------------Young

-------------Heskey

Got Hardline Pro yesterday and tried out the re-roll glitch. How is this not been patched yet? First game, I set up my killstreaks so I had sam turret/care package/sentry gun, re-rolled them all and got two gunships and a chopper gunner!

Odemwingie might be missing. Let's hope so!

I'd bring Cuellar into the defence and then play Bannan, Young, Albrighton and Downing in midfield with Emily and Gabs up top. Might be a little weak in midfield though so perhaps we need Hogg in there for Bannan/Albrighton

Qatar! That just proves money is all that matters in football now.

Please let the Aussies get 2022 - might be living out there by then!

Defeated in the first round - what a joke.

**** Ruskis.

A win in this match will be such a big confidence boost. I really hope the young players are fired up and put in a performance like they did against Man Utd.

I hate that 'Jungle' map. Really annoys the hell out of me.

IMO that's one of my favourites so far. Reminds me of Vietnam war films with the burn out village and the jungle huts.

Friedel deserves better than that IMO. Plus, Given is pretty shaky on crosses and there's a reason his place in the City side has been replaced by his understudy.

I've just been playing TDM with that AK74u rapid fire set up and had some great rounds, particularly on NukeTown / Firing Range. It's ideal for small maps - even managed to get my 3 headshots in a row contract challenge.

If Adebayor could be kept in check, he'd be an awesome signing for any club.

Go onto you're inventory / satchel thing, and it should be listed alongside everything else you're carrying. Select it and it should become your new horse by default.

Balotelli is this seasons Robinho.

Finally got BOs multiplayer to work yesterday. Gotta say the maps are good - not sure which one I like most yet, but they make a refreshing change from MW2. Knifing and spawning need some fixes, and the RC car shouldn't be a 3 kill award. Also, there seems a lot of micro management involved with all the customisation options (not sure I can be arsed tbh!)

As I've only had a few hours on it so far, I've not unlocked that much - currently using a M16 w/suppressor, makarov, hardened, ghost, tac mask, semtex, nova gas, claymore. Pretty good load-out so far. I'm getting a 1.5 kdr on maps I barely know at all.
