Fifa 12 January Transfer Window Squad Update Now Available

Updates include Paul Scholes coming out of retirement, Papiss Cisse to Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur now being rated as a 5 star team.

Electronic Arts have finally released the FIFA 12 squad updates from the January transfer window. It is available to download from today. Finally Newcastle United have a new number nine in Papiss Demba Cisse (plus Demba Ba's impressive form has moved him up from 79 to 82) and no longer do you have to rely on the hopeless Shola Ameobi to provide the goals when Ba inevitably is injured. Finally Queens Park Rangers have a threatening strike force themselves with Djibril Cisse and Bobby Zamora joining the London club last month, and Chelsea fans can now play Gary Cahill alongside John Terry. Also Manchester United have the returning Paul Scholes in their ranks, though don't think he can play 90 minutes for you as he only has a stamina rating of 47. And Sunderland's James McClean will no longer be an unknown but a genuine attacking force down the wing for Sunderland! As for the teams themselves, Tottenham Hotspur's delicious displays this season have now made them a 5 Star rated team with stats increases for several players including Captain Ledley King (he is now 82) and Scott Parker (83). Newcastle United have also moved up to a 4.5 star rated team. To download the updated squads manually use the following instructions; Menu - Customise FIFA > Edit Teams > Change Squads/Rosters > Download Updates. They will of course download automatically if you play the head-to-head season mode.
