5.1 >>>>Goalkeepers<<<<


5.1.1 Edwin Van Der Sar

        Age: 37

        Birthplace: Holland

        Description: This one is a MUST. He MUST be your
                            GoalKeeper. The other ones are cool, 
                            but Van Der Sar is probably one of the
                            best GK in the game.

        Number: 1


5.1.2 Tomasz Kuszczak

         Age: 25
        
         Birthplace: Poland

         Description: If you're reading this guide on the year
                             2011 or so, this one is going to be the 
                             first GK. He's a fairly good GK, but he's
                             in the same team as Van Der Sar...
                             Tough Luck!

         Number: 29


5.1.3 Ben Foster
         
        Age: 24
 
        Birthplace: England
 
        Description: Don't even bother to use him. You have
                            Van Der Sar and Kuszczak so Foster is 
                            pretty much useless.

       Number: 12



5.2 >>>>Defenders<<<<


5.2.1 Rio Ferdinand

        Age: 29

        Birthplace: England

        Description: In my opinion, he's the best defender in
                            the game. If you're in the opposing team...
                            good luck, because you will need it! He's
                            incredibly strong and fast enough to catch
                            most of the strikers.

        Number: 5


5.2.2 Patrice Evra

        Age: 27

        Birthplace: France

        Description: Use him right next to Ferdinand. You can use
                           Evra in the middle or by the left. He's kinda
                           fast but he is strong for sure. 

        Number: 3


5.2.3 Wes Brown

         Age: 28

         Birthplace: England

         Description: You can use him anywhere! Left, right or middle.
                             He's tall, so he is good when there are corner
                             kicks.

         Number: 6


5.2.4 Nemanja Vidic

         Age: 27

         Birthplace: Serbia

         Description: Even though he is a defender, he scores some
                             goals! Consider him as Ferdinand's best friend.
                             They must be together!

         Number: 15


5.2.5 John O'Shea

        Age: 26

        Birthplace: Ireland

        Description: Most of the times he's not in the Starting 11, still
                            he's a great player... Well, most of the players
                            in M.U. are awesome. Make him play in the right
                            side.

        Number: 22


5.2.6 Gerard Pique

        Age: 20

        Birthplace: Spain

        Description: He can play more than 90 minutes and he won't
                            get tired. He has a lot of stamina but his other
                           skills are not that good. Average player.

        Number: 19


5.2.7 Gary Neville

        Age: 33

        Birthplace: England

        Description: He's the captain of the team. He's old tho...
                            He's more like a symbol. He's slow and not
                           that fast. He's one of the worst defenders you
                           have. Use Pique before Neville.

        Number: 2




5.3 >>>>Midfielders<<<<


5.3.1 Cristiano Ronaldo

        Age: 22

        Birthplace: Portugal

        Description: Cristiano Ronaldo is the best player in the game,
                            so if you don't use him, you're either crazy or you
                            like losing. He's the fastest player of the game and
                            he has a really powerful shot. He is the best 
                            dribbler in the world, so you can use him either as
                            a midfielder or as a striker. He'll still pwn.

        Number: 7


5.3.2 Nani

        Age: 21

        Birthplace: Portugal

        Description: In the game, he's like a mini Cristiano Ronaldo. He's
                            fast and he's a good dribbler. He's not as strong as
                            Cristiano though. If he runs, no one will catch him.

        Number: 17


5.3.3 Owen Hargreaves

        Age: 26

        Birthplace: Canada

        Description: In some games he has more defense, in others he
                            has more attack... but in both of them he is slow!
                            If you choose him as a defense midfielder, you
                            gotta choose someone fast to be next to him.

        Number: 4


5.3.4 Anderson

        Age: 20
        
        Birthplace: Brazil

        Description: Like most of the brazilian players, he is an 
                           awesome dribbler. He's not slow, he's fairly fast.
                           He has good technique, he's not so strong though.

        Number: 8


5.3.5 Ryan Giggs

        Age: 34

        Birthplace: Wales

        Description: He's like a legend. Even though he's old, he is still
                            fast. He has a good kick. Use him next to
                            C. Ronaldo or Nani to pwn.

        Number: 11


5.3.6 Park Ji-Sung

        Age: 27

        Birthplace: Korea Republic

        Description: Hey, he's chinese! Obviously he's really fast and he
                            has a lot of stamina. If you're playing the Master
                            League, he is able to play a lot of games in a row.

        Number: 13


5.3.7 Paul Scholes

        Age: 33
 
        Birthplace: England

        Description: So much technique in such a small body. He has
                            a lot of agility and he's fast, but he is so
                            fragile! If you touch him he will fly! That's why
                            I don't use him.

        Number: 18


5.3.8 Michael Carrick

        Age: 26

        Birthplace: England

        Description: He has a lot of stamina and he's strong. He is good
                            at shooting. Only bad part is that he is kinda
                            small, so he'll get pwned by tall strikers.

        Number: 16

5.3.9 Darren Fletcher

        Age: 25

        Birthplace: Scotland

        Description: He's an average player. The other midfielders I have
                            named are better than him. He's not that bad tho... 

        Number: 24



5.4 >>>>Strikers<<<<


5.4.1 Wayne Rooney

         Age: 22

         Birthplace: England

         Description: Probably the best striker you have. He's fast and
                             strong, which is good, BUT he's not that tall...
                             That means that if you are shooting a corner kick,
                             Rooney is pretty much useless. Still, he's a great
                             striker.

         Number: 10

5.4.2 Carlos Tevez

         Age: 23

         Birthplace: Argentina

         Description: He's really fast but he's not that strong. He's even
                             smaller than Rooney which makes him more like a
                             substitution player. If Roony is injured or 
                             something like that, Tevez is your best bet.

         Number: 32

5.4.3 Louis Saha

         Age: 29

         Birthplace: France
 
         Description: His major adventage is his height. He's tall!
                             A tall striker in M.U.! That's not all, 
                             if you're playing with a 4-4-2 or 3-5-2 
                             he's the best partner Rooney can have. 
                             They complement each other. Saha may not
                             be as fast as Rooney or Tevez, but he's 
                            strong for sure.

         Number: 9

5.4.4 Dong Fangzhuo

        Age: 23

        Birthplace: China

        Description: Yeah well, he's fast but he's nothing compared to
                            Rooney, Tevez and Saha. Tough luck Dong!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.- Dream Team
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'll post 2 Dream Teams. One is going to be a defensive team and
the other one is going to be an ofensive team. Both of them are
cool, but I prefer using the offensive one. Well, here it is! Enjoy!

DEFENSIVE DREAM TEAM!

                                Van Der Sar

               Ferdinand                       Vidic     

 Brown                                                         Evra


                  Hargreaves          Carrick


           Ronaldo                                           Giggs

                                  Rooney


                                    Saha

                             Ferdinand

   O' Shea                                               Pique



                Hargreaves           Carrick


Nani                                                          Giggs

                              Ronaldo


            Rooney

                                           Saha

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
7.- TIPS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

* If these combinations don't work for you, try different ones!
   I chose these combinations 'cause those are the ones that
   make me pwn. I've tried them with different opponents and
   most of the times I won. As I said, choose the one that suits
   you the most.

* Trust in C. Ronaldo! He's your best player! If it's a tied game
   and you have one chance to win it, you should give that 
   chance to C. Ronaldo. If he fails, the rest would've failed too.

* If you're playing a Master League, Play with Kuszczak instead
  of Van Der Sar. Van Der Sar may be an awesome GK but he's
   like 37 years old, so he will retire the year after you start the
   Master League! Kuszczak is 25 years old, so you can make
   him better.

* Free Kicks: If you have a free kick, the best kicker would
   probably be either Ronaldo or Rooney. They have the highest
   % of success.

* Corner Kicks:
   Left Side = Giggs
   Right Side = Rooney

* If you see that the opponent's defenders are slow, Saha is
   useless. Use Tevez instead. Tevez and Rooney are both
   fast, so they will have a big adventage.

* Never use G. Neville... He's not that good even though he's
   the captain. In some games he will be in the 11 starters,
   change him.
