This achievement requires you to win a match in expedition mode with 11 players from the same nation. To aquire these 11 players you're going to need to play the same side 11 times and each time keeping the player that you are rewarded with. You could just do this with the very first side you play against or like me, start expedition in the group of your favourite side and work you way up to playing them 11 times to create a similar squad to your national team. Just to point that your virtual pro can count towards this achievement if you change their nationality to the side you've chosen. Also you dont need to put the right players in the right positions, i had 3 keepers and no strikers in my squad and it still worked fine. To make this go as quick as possible change the time for each half to 4 mins and the difficulty to one which you can be certain of winning on. Another tactic could be to change the user and cpu game customisation in your favour, then play on amateur, score a few goals and then just go idle until the game finishes. This method takes the same amount of time but means you could be something else apart from playing the same team over and over again which gets boring very fast.
Note: You can play the same team consecutively and dont have to travel away and come back.
Uranium Deposit I preferred to wait until I got to the best team in the group (Germany in my case) and then take 11 players from them. This way you can change the difficulty back up afterwards and you already have a much better team. Rather than taking 11 Kazakh players, which would mostly be worse than the whole German reserves. IMHO. Sufficient guide, wish I had focused on this first and I would've written it. Should note that you can play the same team consecutively, you don't have to play a team, then travel away and come back.

eViL mOnKeY 270 Yeah thats what i did with England, i played that group fully until i unlocked England and now i effectively have the England squad, and thanks for reminding me about being able to play the same team consecutively, i forgot to put that in

Tall 3vil You might have to play some rounds if you want a full squad (with the right positions):

1st encounter: reserve player
2nd encounter: substitute player
3rd encounter: starting eleven player
all next encounters give you a random player from that country

The game is giving very little attackers I noticed. Hope I'm not the only one.

Uranium Deposit I ended up receiving 4AT/5MID/1DEF/1GK from Germany. It seems random to me.

AssyrianDuke As a quick note you can always change your virtual pro to the country of the team you are collecting so you only need to win 10 times. Also don't worry about positions as you can sub players out as soon as the game starts and still get the achievement.
