Fifa 13 Career Continues

After the international break, Suso returned with a broken metatarsal which I only found out in team management, no email at all. Lokoren away in the Europa League saw a 3-0 win with goals from M.Suarez, Gerrard and a debut goal for new signing Theo Walcott.

Next up a 'pool' derby at home to Blackpool in the Capital One Cup with 11 changes from the Europa win. The game began with a shocking back pass by Baptiste which fooled his keeper and went in to give Liverpool the lead and the goals continued with the final score of 6-0, Downing sealed a brace and Assaidi, Coady and Shelvey each got on the score sheet.

Back to the Premier League and United at home but luckily a good result which was sealed in less than 25 minutes with a brace from Walcott and a header from Gerrard sealing the points.

Moved on to Games of the Week and played Dortmund v Moenchengladbach and in doing so unlocked Maxed Out (10G) for reaching the daily limit of XP and later on played the Team of the Week challenge on Ultimate Team and unlocked Challenge Accepted (30G).

Fifa 13 Ultimate Team and Career Begin

My managerial began career with Liverpool and began well with a 2-0 win over Stuttgart courtesy of a brace from Ousamma Assaidi. The next game saw a 0-0 draw away to Siena with pre-season culminating in a 3-0 win over Werder Bremen with new signing Matias Suarez breaking his duck.

Due to a fixture change, Man City opened my EPL season and sadly the team fell to a 2-1 defeat despite a late goal from M.Suarez which served as mere consolation after goals by Tevez and Clichy.

In what should have been the opener, Liverpool visited West Brom and bounced back from the opening defeat with a stellar 5-0 victory with Downing bagging a goal while M,Suarez and Sterling each hit a brace.





The following night, I began building a team on the Ultimate Team mode and after purchasing my first card pack I unlocked Building My Club (10G). Back to career mode and Arsenal at home and a crushing 4-0 with a stunning volley from Sahin, a brace from returning striker Luis Suarez and the 4th in three games for Matias Suarez. Luis' second unlocked Body Control (5G) by scoring with an off balance shot.


Next up was the first defence of the newly named Capital One Cup at home to Bury in which I fielded a mixed side but came out with a 3-0 win with a brace for a Yesil and a goal for Henderson, who I received a £4m bid for after the game but made a £6m counter offer and earned Master Negotiator (10G) for having that counter offer then accepted by the bidder, Barcelona.




Deadline day approached and Henderson duly went to Spain, Subotic from Dortmund was a bid I put in but £9.5m wasn't enough and turned my attention to Theo Walcott with a few hours to go and a bid, an acceptance and a successful signing were all completed in time for a price of £7.5m. Bids were rejected for Coates, Sktrel and a £20m bid for Luis Suarez from Inter.
