ChrisyB - Inside the Footballer

There were quite a few choices when it came to Sujoy Roy's FIFA choice when it came to the UK finals, but one man had the edge on everybody else, that man was non-other than  Chris "ChrisyB" Bullard. It has been a great year for Chris, the professional FIFA player has gone from strength to strength and is now earning a well paid salary for his efforts in the game.

Spawning unknowingly from the UK based eSports organisation Team-Dignitas, Chris was drafted for the CGS UK this year a long with other members of the Team-Dignitas organisation, including their Counter Strike: Source team, and manager Michael "ODEE" O'Dell. Today, Chris isn't just a regular player in the game, but his strengthly efforts have earned him the status of one of the UK's best FIFA players, with a good potential of being one of the worlds best also.

London Mint were knocked out of the CGS world finals earlier this month, in the quater-finals stage against Carolina Core, who would progress to the finals, losing out to Chicago Chimera. London Mint showed great skill and good player choice in both the UK and world finals, with Chris losing out to American FIFA player, peekay, three goals to one. In the individual playoffs however, Chris managed to grab a second place standing in FIFA07, when he lost out, two goals to one, in the finals against WizakoR.

I caught up with Chris for an exclusive interview, backtracking his CGS history with other talks also on his career in FIFA, the game in general, and what makes a good player in the EA Sports FIFA series.
