    Loving it this year.

    Got a solid Serie A side set up in UT. In division 3 on the brink of a title into Div 2. Attempted the FUT Champions tourny this weekend, played a few games but didn't like the hybrid side I was forced to build.

    Came up against a youtuber though and the game clip ended up in one of his vids. :56: Beat me 2-1 but it was a close one.

    4mins 5 seconds in to where it shows my side. Look how aidsy the * first goal is:42:

    Nice one, watched a few of Marshall's videos before.

    The midfield you had for the hybrid is the same one I use in UT. Sanches, Draxler and Thiago. Sanches is * amazing.

    How is Douglas Costa by the way? Using Coman just now. He's good but Costa looks fantastic.

    Played 50 odd games with him and he is class. Not too flashy but fast as * with good passing and solid shooting.

    Was terrific for me last year as well.
    Costa was good mate. I've sold that side how but he performed well for me.

    I'm finding it tough at the moment in the higher divisions. * are just going park the bus counter attack and they all know how to defend.

    Team I'm using just now been brilliant so far unbeaten in seasons and only drawn 2.

    Ideally though
    Marchiso for Melo
    Nastasic for Boateng

    Strikers in Serie A or the Bundesliga are quite poor aside from the guys costing 200k plus

    Aye the Bundesliga strikers are such a let down. Chicharito is decent, and I put a hunter card on Gomez to put his pace up. He actually has a good scoring record in my team, but neither of them are great.

    Lack of strikers is the reason I chucked the seria A side.

    Tried IF Immobile but he is rank rotten. Got a prem side now 4-3-2-1 with Martial sturridge and Mahrez up top.

    Used this team to play last night. One game I came up against a guy who had a team chemistry of 40. Every player was gold - not all rare- and ranged from 77-81 in rating. His backline and keeper all came from a different league.

    Got beat 5-1.


    I've been playing fifa solid since 2008 on the ps3. Been playing any version of fifa and pes between 1999 and 2008 before that.
    I'm not an * at this game. I used to be able to play against anyone and put up a good fight. Over the last 4 years my win/loss ratio online would be a fair 50/50. I'm not * - but I'm not going to brag I'm amazing. I'm just a solid and decent player.
    Ranking up to division 4 or 5 would be no problem before I would struggle and float between division 3 and 4. Both on fut and online season.

    This years game i can't string two wins together. My current fut performance is 9-5-31 with either coming up against epl boosted * or complete * ups of squads like the one I talked about. Only to get my * handed to me.

    Iniesta apparently can not pass a ball 8 yards to busquets without the opponent magically bombing forward and intercepting. But when I'm faced the same defence my midfielders take a second to stop and look around the pitch as I change cursor to them. Allowing the opponent countless amount of free time.


    Since that above game I've went and changed controller settings. Added a few back to assisted settings and the next 2 games I still got beat, but my mentality seemed a bit better. I doubt that will last.

    * knows if simply I have missed a point where this game has changed how you play football and forgot to tell me or if the game has something built in even worse than momentum.

    They need a to change the drop in matches. Would be good if you could continue to next game with the same team (in the 10% chance you get decent team mates).

    Also the lobby shpuld automatically put you in a team. Wee * constantly not picking a side asking if anyone has a team to join.

    If you quit during a game you should get banned from playing for a while or a sin bin thing like GTA.

    Rocket League has a 15 minute ban if you quit out a game, something like that would be decent but I think you get a lot more dickheads in FIFA. Guys going in goal with their 5ft 4 st because someone took the st spot and you'd be stuck with that or banned for leaving :56:

    Got 350k sitting but going to wait before buying a team again, prices are going up and down constantly.

    Waiting until a couple legends come down, ideally would like to try out Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, he is about 430k and not selling atm.
