I've just started playing online and was wondering if anyone could give me a few tips for enjoyable play.
...Like i said i have only played a handful of games, and as much as i enjoy the whole factor of playing pro at any time with anyone, ive found myself starting to get a bit annoyed with it, and well i really don't want that to be the case especially for me.
so here are the things that are getting to me. Hopefully there will be some of you out there that maybe have had or are having the same feelings as me.
First off, i spend alot of my spare time, well pretty much all of my time playing pro and as much as i know im not the greatest and by no way untouchable, i like to think of myself as a pretty good player and a challenging opponet to anyone i play, but as soon as i've started playing online i FEEL like im a totally different player, as if im one of those pepole who actually is playing the game for the first time.
i've played about 17 games online, i know it's not a lot, and i have only clocked up 2 wins. A handfull of the games have ended up being close but it always goes against me. Now i don't want to sound like im whining coz the game isn't going my, and i tell myself that the wins will come, but it just feels like with a bit of tactical tweeking the close games could go in my favour.
the magority of goals i seem to give are the 'cutting in from the wing the simply tapping to a waiting striker to slot home' yet when the chances for me to do this come i just get swamped by defenders, the ball doesn't go to my waiting striker or the keeper will grab it.
the formation i use is a 4-3-3 and when playing mates and comp this formation is good for me in every way, yet when online it all goes to pot, my midfield seems to be non existance and my defence always seems to be chasing strikers who are stampeeding towards my goal, yet everyone i've played seems to dominate in midfield and has a solid defence that stops any danger with simple ease.
i guess i just want to feel that i can play online the same way i do against the comp and my mates, that is with the confidence that my team is balenced at both ends and i feel i can create great chances from all over the field. where at the moment i feel that i cant create a thing and that im constantly ball chasing. now i can totally except beeing beaten by the better player and feel that i learn from every defeat yet it just seems that i can't get that 'CLICK' ... if you know what i mean...
Anyway sorry to go on, but if anyone can relate to this or can give me any tips, hints, advise, anything i would be most greatfull.
Cheers,
