Incredible win for Borisov!!!

Rosebud · 10-02-2012, 03:50 PM

Can't believe they held on there. This is Bayern's first **** up this season.

SuperMcGee · 10-02-2012, 03:52 PM

I did enjoy that.

Also, Puyol's arm. Eep.

Rosebud · 10-02-2012, 03:56 PM

I just hope this kicks off Bayern's annual midseason dip in BL form cause they've just been running away from everybody except Frankfurt, who are shockingly 5-0-1 with some big wins.

Wootylicous · 10-02-2012, 03:58 PM

That's because Olivier Occéan is a stud.

I think it will just inspire them even more domestically. I wouldn't want to be the next team they play in the Bundesliga.

Eh, Bayern tend to get complacent when they're running away from everyone in teh BL as is. With this loss turning their attention even more to the CL than it was before I could see them dropping some points these next few weeks to let Dortmund and Schalke catch up.

Couple of my goals in FIFA. It says I am in an "Interactive League" and that my difficulty is Amateur, but I promise that I am playing Professional in offline Career Mode. Buggy system, but it's easy to use at least. I am getting pretty good at volleys.

Do you play manual controls?

Yes, I do. Been using manual controls since '11

I play on the Pro camera in single player, and I think that really, really helps my aiming.

Yeah, you can't hit goals like that on auto. Manual is the way to go.

Auto shoots it on goal every time but yeah, you're right, you just can't hit the corners with auto unless you really mess w/ the sliders.

Another point I will add is that the "Acrobat" trait is absolutely imperative if you want to hit volley goals on Manual. Otherwise, you basically have zero shot of hitting it where you want it to go. "Clinical Finisher" helps, too.

Have the afternoon off tomorrow. So excited for the Dortmund game.

MetSox17 · 10-03-2012, 02:31 PM

Ajax's goalie has had a pretty damn great first half and they're still gonna go into the break down one. welp.

Rosebud · 10-03-2012, 02:32 PM

Joe Hart is easily citeh's MVP. Dortmund have left at least 2 goals on the pitch in this first half.

SuperMcGee · 10-03-2012, 02:41 PM

Yeah, Hart has been pretty big for us. Was the story for much ofthe Real game, as well.

Silva had a decent shot at one for us. He just hasn't been right this year.

Yeah, Citeh's gotten a couple of really good chances, but Dortmund are controlling this game. That ball in by Reus for Gotze earlier was gorgeous, if only they had been flipped cause no way Marco doesn't finish in that situation. Especially after the amazing goals he scored on the weekend against Gladbach.
