    i would have to think i play like david beckham or xabi alonso i dont need flashy moves to get by ppl just cutting it is enough and i can find a person very well and have alot of range on my shot and im probabaly one of the slowest players out there

    I play at full back so i would say either Gael Clichy or Daniel Alves, both very attacking full backs who make overlapping runs and get crosses in.
    Occasionaly I play on the wing as well so i would also say i'm similair to Samir Nasri.

    It depends if i'm playing in defence then i will play like Terry as he has a win the ball at all costs attitude. If i'm playing attack its the same but like Rooney.

    I don't try to emulate anyone, but I will admit to having picked up a few ideas from watching other players.

    I try to create my own moves, adapted to my own pace and movement, so I know I can do them all the time. I've been reasonably successful, but with everything, there are a few where you almost end up on your face, and go back to the drawing board.

    I'd like to do some things like some players, but I wouldn't want to play like them. My style has worked for me, and has seen me play in every position possible (though I always play my best when I'm in the hole, or as a holding midfielder).

    My style is definitely based off of the old-style south american attacking midfield such as Maradona, Valderrama, Juninho Paulista, Aguinaga, Cubillas: start from the middle, slow the pace, quick 1-touches, dribbling forward when I have to, but most importantly feeding the ball where no one expects it to go. I also love to shoot from farther back.

    Unfortunately, where I am in Japan, the style here is more flash than substance. Most Japanese guys I've played with only like to dribble the ball all the way to the net and do little else. They have little shooting skill/timing, or passing skill, so the midfield goes relatively unused--which is bad for me.

    So, generally, I've just been feeding balls up and have begun developing quick chips with little rear-leg extension, like Cubillas would do.

    Ashley Cole: I like to win the ball and then go forward up the wings as quickly as possible from left back.

    I play midfielder... I like to inspire my moves on Corinthians' Douglas, a sort of downgrade from Zidane, in a certain way...

    Hi everybody. I acutally play a little like Andrea Pirlo. I play central midfield but play a little deeper then my partner cm and try cutting off throughballs and player runs through the middle. I usually start my teams attacks, like spread the ball out of half to wingers or put balls straight to strikers. I tend to sit bit deep hardly run into the box and I try to be the simple back pass option for my attackers. I also take free kicks for the team.

    HOWEVER I want to be playing like SGerrard more. I dont have as much workrate and do get alittle lazy in the game and my other mc partner plays like Gattuso and runs hard all game chasing down everyball which works quite well with me. I want to be more box to box but fitness wont allow it...

    Cheers,
    ReeNah

    My style has changed and its pretty much a carbon-copy of Inzaghi with a speck of Shearer. I'm out of shape and I joined a league a few weeks ago, played 3-4 games so far and I'm a forward. I stay all the way up the field, playing off the last defenders shoulder, living offside practically the whole game. I'll even walk behind the last defender making myself offside and then at the last moment I try to get even before I get the ball played to me. I play with my back to goal completely - I don't think I've even tried to beat a player one on one yet, I'm just poaching goals.

    when i play foward, i like to emulate Amauri. hes big fast and great on the ball. i got all that exept height... in the midfield i try to be like Fabregas, quick on the ball distribute, receive and look to create chances.
    in defence i like to think of Ivan Cordoba(minus the age) hes not the biggest, but hes really fast and has no fear. also references to Gattuso and Cannavaro.
