Winning Eleven

[dstriker]

I've never played this game before.
Can you create custom players in it? Create their skill, name, etc??

Is it considered a better game than EA's version?

Yes to all of the above.

Winning Eleven is superior in gameplay. The flow of the game is more like reality than an arcade style game.

The only drawback is the lack of licensing for some teams and leagues, but you quickly forget it after playing for a while.
