Got my Bundesilver striker, 5K off the average market price/ His stats look great for a silver player.

Nicely done mate.

Think I'm going to build a silver Bundesliga team soon enough too! They seem unreal.

Just made a sort of sweaty cheap Serie A team to hopefully win division 1 for some coins.

Picked up a Junuzovic for 15500 last night being a bit worried, but he was bought for 24k in a matter of minutes. Someone's price fixing him now. :pac:

Hazard all day for me. He's been in my team since Day 1 and is just quality.

Yup he is great and for some reason scores a lot of headers despite being tiny!

YUSSSS!!!!!!...

Fixed that for ya!

He is seriously one of the best players in UT, 4 Star weak foot, 5 Star skills and scores goals for fun! I would give anything if i could work him into my current hybrid team, but most I can get is 6 chemistry for him.

Have him in my Russia league team front 3 who are so much fun to play with if only the defense wasn't really poor.

Well assuming your looking for premiership, its pretty much aguero or IF Suarez.

If it is an Italian team you want Micolli or Di Natale.

Its premiership. Aguero is the ideal player but it will be a long time before I have 140000 coins. I have tevez and hernandez ant the moment.

Well depending on the time of day you can get him for 120k which is a nice saving, I picked up mine for 122k last week.

Was obviously very skeptical of that Gold Pack trick but figured I'd give it a go.

First of all it takes a fecking age to get the Ox and Messi in the right combo!

First pack I got Felipe Santana, 4-1-2-1-2 and McEachran which sold for about 15.5k.

Next pack Yanga-Mbiwa, another 4-1-2-1-2 and Chicharito. Was going to sell Chicharito but I have Valencia as my backup RM at so if I buy Kagawa it means I can rotate (Walcott-Cazorla-Giroud) with (Valencia-Kagawa-Hernandez) without too much of a chemistry loss. So made just under 7k back off that pack.

Opened a third pack and got Ashley Young and Lambert who I've sold for 2.2k and 17k respectively.

Of course all of this could be a massive fluke but I've never opened three packs in a row and got such a decent return before. It's all going right into the Kompany fund.

Cazorla bangs in the headers for me for some reason, half of his 20 goals must have been headers.

Osmosis Jones · 17-10-2012 9:32pm

Had a load of coins so bought 3 packs with that "method" best i got was Bendtner. :rolleyes:

Yep, and i never buy packs, for some reason i thought i could get something nice, time to start saving for a striker again :pac:

Washington Irving · 17-10-2012 10:05pm

Just had my biggest win so far this year and it was in a Tournament final. I scored just before HT to go 1-0 up, before scoring 6 in the second half including a penalty miss. Don't know what happened the other guy, must have given the controller to his 4 year old brother or something

In the semi-final of that tournament I had the jammiest win ever. It was the 120th minute and the other guy goes 1 on 1, he takes a heavy touch past the keeper and then his striker pulls up injured. I get the ball, launch it from the back, Cavani heads down to Hamsik who volleys it off the post and in. Got three rage messages straight after the game

Sabre0001 · 17-10-2012 11:01pm

Trick could not have gone worse for me

Ah well, I never expected to get anything from it!

Nuri Sahin · 17-10-2012 11:03pm

Tried it there.

Toulalan and Del Bosque in pack 1.

Lampard 352 in pack 2.

Westermann in pack 3.

Meh. Better to be lucky than good springs to mind with FUT it feels at times.

Must try out IF Montolivo for my Serie A Hybrid, will post back thoughts in a while.

Tried him earlier, he was pretty good but not good enough to justify the price (few IFs are), decided to stick with Hamsik and Cossu (who seems far better than his stats suggest)

Tried twice more there and my best player was Gallas

Sound, not expecting much off him to be honest, hopefully I'll be able to pick him up cheap so if he is crap I'll lose few coins. Nocerino is doing well for me but two major things I dislike about him is 2 star skills and High/High workrates so hes knacked all the time, Montolivo should be much better in that aspect.
