Feyenoord Rotterdam FC, I've only just started the game. I'm aiming for Champions League, but hoping for the title. They have a great young squad, with good facilities too! ​- PZW

They aren't real players, but generated ones which are fake. You can't do anything with them, but if you demote [real] players into the reserves, only then can you control them! ​- PZW

Attributes aren't everything, it depends on many other factors. But I'm not sure about Pepe Reina as I haven't managed him yet on Football Manager Handheld! ​- PZW

I might try a 5-1-4, do you reckon it'll work? It will be based on defensive stability but also a threat from attacking plays and height. I will definitely test it on Stoke, if I have a chance! ​- PZW

James Milner is quite a similar player, so perhaps he could do the job? He was too wide for most of the game, and too attacking, to deal with Andrea Pirlo, though. Perhaps we could try him in centre midfield in the upcoming games? He could be a replacement for Scott Parker when Parker retires...

Borussia Dortmund, Lyon, Feyenoord, Ajax, Arsenal, Manchester United, RC Lens, Hoffenheim, Barcelona, Athletic Bilbao, Southampton, Middlesborough, Sampdoria. I find that many teams in France and Spain have good academies, but less so in England and Italy. Birmingham City, West Ham, Sampdoria...

Can I have team 16 please? I won't be playing it at the moment; I already have a save which I am enjoying, but I will run this alongside (I may not play it often, though). And is it OK that I use the default patch? My updates have messed up, and I normally don't use them anyway! ​- PZW

Italy used to be much better, and the players you have named are either all ageing or not really world class. Italy arguably do not have a world class player; Gianluigi Buffon and Andrea Pirlo are extremely good; but very old! However, I do not think they are weak, anyway, no less weakened then...

I think Portugal might have something up their sleeves when they face their local rivals Spain next Wednesday. Cristiano Ronaldo has finally hit form for Portugal, and in what a fashion!? 3 goals in the last 2 games is remarkable, and he has played fairly well all tournament (barring a few...

I think I may be wrong; Mesut Ozil has not been magnificent so far at the Euros, just good (by his standards, anyway). Perhaps a surprise shout for the Golden Boot would be Steven Gerrard? He's had a fantastic start this time round, and really looks the player he was 4-5 years ago! ​- PZW

Well it seems many of the big names are failing to find the net at Euro 2012! Many people who plumped for Robin Van Persie, Karim Benzema and Robert Lewandowski are wrong! However, Mario Gomez, Fernando Torres and Cristiano Ronaldo are not doing too badly, they are all proven goalscorers, at...

Thanks for the reply mate, I'll look into those players! ​- PZW

Hey guys! I am managing Schalke in a challenge against my friend, and I want to win the Bundesliga. I have just started this save, and after looking at the squad, I figured out I needed a goalkeeper, left back and left winger. However, I am also looking for good youth in other positions, such I...

Yeah, I agree completely, Mesut Ozil has been fantastic at Real Madrid since he signed, and has kept some big names out of the team! He's been a great coup for them! Kaka has been injured often for the last few season, meaning he is more injury prone than Ozil; and is nowhere near as good as he...

These are from here, aren't they? Because if they are, and it's not your work, you're meant to credit it! If it is yours, the depth and predictions are very good. I'm tipping Russia to win 3-0, and the Czech Republic to win 2-1 tonight, although maybe the 3-0 scoreline is a bit too much! ​- PZW
