Enhorabuena Gutierrez, el primer jugador de ML United a llegar a los 100 goles por el club!
Ya es una leyenda del club. Tambien es el jugador con más partidos, 157.
Now, how to fake half a team with a fancy dribble move+pass combo.

A few interesting individual and collective CPU behaviours from our beloved PES08 PS2.
First, look at what the player in yellow shirt does right after he loses the ball. Bear in mind that this is a pretty unremarkable striker, who is far from being a well of stamina, mentality, defense or teamwork. He's just an average joe in PES08, but this is what the average joe is programmed to do here: just like in real-life, any player is encouraged to react quickly after he loses the ball, to do his best to avoid the opponent's counter-attack (and Kapetanos, the player in yellow, certainly did). However, he's a striker and his team was not at risk of suffering a dangerous counter-attack as they were well positioned for a defensive transition - while I was not ready for a killer offensive transition either...- so he could've just let go of the play and let the midfielders do the dirty job. Anyway, he does his job and helps out after losing the ball.
Little things like this make 08's AI tough to handle, as you have to expect displays of high football-IQ even from average players.
Another football lesson provided by an excellent Juventus team I just faced for the WEFA Championships. Juventus is the blue team, and they've just lost the ball in a dangerous place: right in front of their defense. Notice here:
1 - How quick the players closer to the ball get to my players to stop the play, and how aggressive is their behaviour.
2 - How compact Juventus becomes in a matter of seconds. It's a trap and it's done in a flash. Do they commited so hard to that trap because they knew the player with the ball was a tall, lanky, unskilled and slow 203cm beast, therefore an easy prey? Who knows.
3 - How you get 4 players at one point commited to one thing only: stop the man who's leading the counterattack. He has the ball and he needs to be stopped right away before this play grows into something more dangerous.
4 - Look at Juventus' last defender. He's a CB. As soon as his partner joins the incoming trap, he puts himself in a more central position to deal with a possible forward run from either one of my CMFs or my RWB who doesn't appear on the video but is joining the attack. In doing this he opens a passing lane for my striker, but he:
---- trusts the incoming Juventus' RB who's running like a maniac to cover up that passing lane - which he does accomplish;
----- trusts the trap that's being pulled on ML United's player with the ball - one of the Juventus' players there has just commited to a sliding tackle to stop the ball.
----- anyway, being the last defender, his priority is always to cover the middle; even if he has to open up a passing lane for the wings.
With a CPU team capable of pulling this off, obviously I lost.
@miguelfcp That first video that you posted, the guy with the yellow shirt. It actually looks like after he loses the ball he goes over and foot stops your guy to take the ball away. Maybe Konami put in a hidden unsportsmanlike stat???
I kinda saw that foot jam and a sneaky elbow too. Nasty little buggers the COM players are.
And now I think of it, in PES 6 on the playstation 2 edition, it has what I thought was this annoying glitch where COM players get in your players way by accident. Maybe not.

Yeah thats what i liked in miguel's video. It seems fluid as "fresh milk"! The strips looked so sweet, like smooth pyjamas!!I put 2x too as it's as smooth as native, more or less. Unfortunately it isn't as fluid as possible, but it's still fully playable to me
I think Miguel plays on console if I'm not wrong?

In mine is kind of smooth but there are moments i think it tries to stutter? maybe or the speedhack prevents stuttering by frameskiping. I am not sure at all, it is the emulators curse,but not in an unplayble rate to be honest, the game is still playable i don't want to be ungreatfull.

Have you considered playing Fredriksson elsewhere, just out of curiosity, perhaps in a D1 Cup second leg when the tie is pretty much won from the first leg?
