Didn't really enjoy 2011 as much as I did 2010. Will try the demo of 2012 and see what happens.

Does it really change much each year? Last version I bought was 07, and can see a marked difference between that and 11, but is 12 that much different over 11, other than player/team updates??

There are over 800 changes, from playing the demo you definitely notice the changes.

Are they significant changes though, or just positions where the buttons are to click etc? Just asking in terms of justifying forking out £30 each year just for players to be with the right teams as the major thing...

Interacting with players has completely changed, Team meetings are different, you can setup 4 tactics to train and alternate between.

The tones in the team talks are probably the biggest change for me, very useful.

Much easier to score from corners too! :D

You must be joking, last one was simple to score from corners. Pique or Vidic sort of defender could get 15 a season.

Decent corner taker, cross to the far post, have best header attack far post, next best near post, then decent header or a fox in the box type player challenging the keeper.

Gonna order mine off Amazon when I've got enough survey points to trade in for vouchers.

I'm using the same corner routine and have 2 defenders with more than 5 goals at the end of the demo.

Started my second save with Huddersfield, it's much easier to loan players in League 1 than the Championship, I've brought in Ravel Morrison and Eric Lijach for the season, not paying the wages for either, when playing as City both clubs wanted a fee and full wages, this has annoyed me a bit!

Downloaded it today so just about to start a season with Wigan. Usually go with a lower league team in the actual game itself but will go with Wigan in the demo.
