I totally agree guys, especially at Jimmy, this year I'm getting to a point where I'm tearing my hair out at the whiners who are just not playing the game to its potential.
This game has MADE me practice it for hours and hours and hours.
It has its flaws no doubt, but as a realistic depiction of football, this game is almost stunning.
Check these goals out for some variation and R2 finishing! Look at how un-cheap they are, look at the defensive positioning/lines/patterns of play and tell me it's cheap like FIFA!! This is in Superstar mode across the PC and the PS3, and all goals are hard earned!

It's just a shame more people cannot or will not see the nuances the game has to offer. I'm working on a definitive best goals list to show people what can be done on here. People don't realise that in defence positioning is crucial and in attack space is the key! The reason why so many people are failing at the game is that they are playing it far too linearly, doing the same thing over and over and expecting the same results. The change of pace, the angle of attacks, the slowing down on the counter INSTEAD of speeding up to gather more support IS CRUCIAL.
There is even an art to letting the opposition come onto you if they are a counter attacking team and play with many behind the ball. There are so many aspects to the game, so much fun to be had with positions, players with the right skill set in set positions etc, people are just missing the point I feel.
