Gentlemen,

This blog is meant for those who would like to discuss some of the tips and advice to make yourself a better online Fifa 10 player, which in turn, hopefully will provide you with a more enriching online experience. My personal knowledge of Fifa 10 play comes from over 550 online ranked head to head matches, and I would like to share some of my tips of success and give back to my fellow community members.

I would be more than happy to play with many of you online on Xbox Live. Simply add me as a friend, and tell me who you are from the forum. We can play a ranked or unranked match, which will allow me to view and assess your skills, and then discuss them in turn, as well as address any other questions you may have.

This is not the place to discuss my own personal online career statistics. For that, please see my thread. If you want to ask questions regarding game play, strategy, tactics, lineups or anything related to becoming a better player in Fifa 10, feel free to ask here! Many have already asked pointed questions on how to improve in certain situations, and they are scattered throughout the pages. Here's a couple of quick game play tips I have for you right off the bat:

Possession
1. You need to keep possession in the midfield. This will draw defenders towards you, while it frees up your wingers to have more space to play. To do this, you need to work on your one on one moves. If you can get past one player, your opponent will usually bring in another to press you. This frees up one of your other players to pass to.
2. When you HAVE a lead, change your formation to a pure defensive formation. Put your mentality on Ultra Defensive. This will stop the high pressure rushes and counter attacks. It will also increase your possession and frustrate your opponent. The more frustrated your opponent gets, the more mistakes he makes, as he tries to hurry up and score a quick goal.

Skill Moves
3. Work on skill moves with your wing players. This will free up your strikers in the box. If you can beat guys on the wings, then you will find better crossing opportunities, and better passing opportunities.

I will provide fellow members with "UDLawman's Tip of the Week". The First Tip will follow this post. To all the Fifa 10 members out there, please feel free to provide your own tips and advice to people as well. I certainly do not know everything there is to know in Fifa 10, and I too am constantly learning new things every day.

For those of you who would like to set up a 1 v 1 personalized session to assess your skills, abilities, and weakness, please let me know and I will try my best to work with you.

Take it easy gentlemen, and I will look forward to seeing you on Live.
