FIFA11 - Tottenham Career mode

So this is the first time I play a career mode further than a couple of seasons on FIFA 11, I thought maybe people would be interested in seeing what kinds of trades you end up getting and how the teams start to look after a several seasons.



I chose to play Tottenham Hotspurs for this campaign, I had never play with them before and since they were doing fairly well this year in real life I decided this could be an interesting team to play with in the EPL. Right now I'm on the 2014/2015 season and I'll just give a quick overview of my career so far.

On my first season I did sell quite a few of my players. I found the spurs have A LOT of players in their squad and since I had no intentions of playing half of those reserves I just cashed them in. The biggest transfer fee I ended up receiving was only 1.9M for J. Livermore. On that year I was looking for a good striker. I found my team was fairly balanced overall, but the spurs lacked a bit of attacking power and flair for my taste. Defoe was quite a bit of fun to play with, but Crouch is a very situational type player. I wasn't a huge fan of Pavlyuchenko, and only played him sometimes. Van der Vaart is also a quality player but he was often my choice in substitution for my attacking minded midfielders so I couldn't really rely on him as a striker all the time.
Luckily Milan was selling Alexandre Pato, which happens to be one of my favorite strikers in the world. I was able to buy him for 39.4M, and he scored a fair number of goals right away. I think that season Defoe ended up being my top scorer though.
