Is it me or is there a massive favouritism towards players from Barcelona and Real Madrid. Im into my 4th season on a Man Utd save and have won the Premier League 3 times the FA cup twice and the Champions League in my last 2 seasons.

My point being that in the last 2 seasons where ive won every competion ive played in, Wayne Rooney has finished top goalscorer in the Champions league for 2 years and had the highest average rating, and second top goalscorer in the league with the second highest average and compare these stats with Lionel Messi's and Cristiano Ronaldo he beats them on every one.

Add to the this how well Marek Hamsik and Sergio Aguero have played stat wise and competions won, I cannot get a look in when it comes to any World player of the year awards or Golden ball winners, with the top 3 the last 3 years always being Messi, Ronaldo, and either Xavi or Iniesta.

Anyone else experiencing this same problem or am I the only one world football dislikes
no i have the same problem with my players alwasys coming second. The Premier League also drops to 5th best competition even though they have won 3 of 5 CL and 4 different winners of the league over 5 years. The game just seems to love the spanish leagues because after 5 years at arsenal winning PL twice CL twice FA Cup 3 times and the League Cup 5 times Fabregas would rather join Real Madrid (not barcelona) who have won nothin
I know rich, Aguero has just had a stormer of a season and still cant get a look in. In the last 4 years between them the best Real and Barca have done is 3 Champions League semi's. Another thing that annoys the shit out of me is I will offer a good amount for a good player say 20-30 million, it will get rejected or ask for more but then Real or Barca will get a bid of 15 million accepted, but the other team just wants loads off me.
Not at all Adebayor on my Man City Team has scored 45 goals this season he got World Footballer of the year twice on the trot now so i find your Thing as a bug or something to the game as i don't see any bias what so ever
I've noticed the exact same thing. With my Liverpool save I won EVERYTHING on my first season including a Champions League final against Barcelona. Second season I was on the same course (early Premier League Champion, FA Cup, League Cup) and again I met Barcelona on the Champions League final, and on that season Barcelona were in 4th place in BBva league and despite that they were still considered favorites in the game by far... Hulk and Torres had been massive scorers, better than Ronaldo and Messi, Torres had more assits than Iniesta and despite that Hulk only managed to finish 3rd on World Footballer, Messi was 1st and Iniesta 2nd
Is any of this bias down to poor international form or something like tht? And also you know how corrupt FIFA is I am hardly surprised :P
