I've had a few disconnects but they've all been really early in the game (through 25 or so ranked matches). Also, you can't really "reject" a pause, the message that appears is just saying "yo, your opponent paused, do you want to mess around with stuff too or just wait?"

God, I hate this game so much but I can't stop playing. My defense is porous and I'm regularly getting 3-4 goals scored on me in a game unless my opponent sucks. I'm getting better at scoring but still miss a ton of easy chances. Is there any reason to ever use a normal shot (X) instead of a controlled shot (RT+X)? My normal shots pretty much never go in and just sail over the net a high % of the time regardless of how quickly I tap X.

Also, someone suggest to me a solid starting lineup for Chelsea, and possibly an alternate formation from the default. Usually I sub Shevchenko for Robben and Ballack for Essien, but I feel like in the default formation I'm not using Drogba and/or Shevchenko enough.

Seems from our games on Friday that you made some good progress. Scored plenty against me [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] As I said, i sometimes put Eissen as DMF with Ballack and Lampard in front of him and then Robben-Drogba-Cole across the front.We are a good match, I hope you play you more in the future.

THAY3R and dwn2f, saw you on there too but we were never free at the same time. I will keep trying to get games with you both. Hopefully I can give you guys a run for your money.

Where does Shevchenko go in this setup? I usually ditch Robben for him.

He is not good for a whole game. Plus Robben is the only left footed MF/SS on the team so I like to get him in there. Play each for a half.

Why not, is it an issue of stamina? I always check my players' energy levels at halftime and it's actually Ballack that's usually pretty tired, Shevchenko generally isn't.
