Atackers i use Huntelaar with Nistelrooy they are really good if you can use them trust me, both of them with 95 on finishing.

The midfield i use is Robben - Lassana - Sneijder - VDV
I always use Salgado, but I do use Heinze and Marcelo sometimes. Marcelo's underrated so its hard to use him..

I know, and lately weve been monsters at the Nou Camp except for this last clasico. IMO, if Drenthe scores, the game would have been much different. Also having most of our players out to injury didnt help.

Salgado plays his heart out. He pretty much embodies Madridismo. Him , Higuain and Raul of course. I always give props to those that sweat their lalalaes off for us. Marcelo is a pitiful defender (defending) but can cause trouble going forward. IMO, he wont last too long at Real.

In previous versions of FIFA, Real were the best no doubt but no they are garbage in this game for some reason

the reason is because nistelrooy is underrated so is robben,pepe,guti,diarra,Higuain.

if you got your half squad underrated its hard to be good. Strikers like del piero/trez have 87 but nistelroy 86..tss nistelrooy should have been atleast 87 along with Robben.

Sergio Ramos (I don't use it as a rb) and Cannavaro as center backs work fine...
The keeper is obviously amazing

The attack is lalalala ... RVN for some reason does not feel like he plays on real life. He's one of my fav fowards but in the game he fails.

A TEAM ON TOP FORM AT THE MOMENT WITH FERNANDO TORRES ON HIS WAY TO TOP FORM WITH M.SKRTEL TIMES R GONNA BE GOOD n TORRES LOVES PINGING THEM IN AGAINST MADRID
just reading back thru this thread and you have quoted Pennant as been one of the fantastic midfielder's liverpool have?

Pennant is garbage, always has been, and the fact he's been kept out of the side by Dirk Kuyt who is a striker says enough to me, Madrid only wanted him as a squad player to play in Copa Del Ray matches but Madrid wernt prepared to pay his outrageous wage demands. What sort of idiot turns down Madrid when he cant get a game at the club he's at?

Aurielo? Think the less said about him the better, he's almost as bad as
Pennant, and injured enough times, why you get rid of Kewell?

Lucas? Oh dear oh dear, for a CM his passing and distribution is awful, he's scared of tackling and he cant spot a killer ball to save his life.

Liverpool have a good first 11 but their squad is poor, and thats whats gonna get em this last half of the season.

I changed my favourite team to Real Madrid a couple of days ago, I want to play Raul as I think he is a legend but he is not technical, strong or fast enough to make any real use of. Still not sure what the best line-up and formation are for them but I do enjoy playing with them.

Got to say I love the fact that not many people use them online, they're not a noob-friendly team so bombing down the flanks and looking for a quick tap in won't get you very far (which is why I think most people think they are lalalala lol). If you keep possession and play more tactically and skillfully then they are a real joy to play with and I've beaten the most aggressive Barca and Man U users using all manual controls so they can't be that bad!

Well as i said it was ratings-wise. I do find it harder to beat everton than liverpool against the comp. For liverpool i almost always beat them by at least 3 goals. everton is always a close match

Ruud is really slooooow and for some reason even though he has a good finishing I can't seem to score with him.

Another thing is that I have NEVER played online against anyone that chooses Real Madrid... I think that the reasons are obvious.

They`re absolute ****e.

i beat man utd 3 0 with real... ruud scored 2

probably not, not only did he spell it bad but he used the wrong word too :P.
Madrid is good for me but heavily underrated, Guti only 83 and what an amazing season the guy had, he had most assist on Laliga 07/08 the guy was probably the best midfielder on Laliga last season so I dont know how they underrate them so much.
Those of you saing Nistelroy is not good, DUDE nistelrooy is a beast on this game I always score with him.

My games with madrid against Barca,man united, other big teams on legendary mostly ends by 4-0 5-0 even 7-0.
Because when you score 3-0 the first half time, they just make some changes that doesnt even make sense and you can just keep on going and scoring.


My best win with Madrid against barca legendary is 9-1
