No sign of one with me anyway

Seen where others got it on Reddit, and they also got Courtois and Aguero, which are the 3 loan players you got if you got the deluxe edition of fifa so maybe it's something to do with that

Lord TSC

Got Messi as well.

v3ttel

Same here. Loan Messi for 5 games (have him for 15 games now which is nice!)

Others seem to be getting multiple loan players, packs, or........nothing.

Lord TSC

Bought Ronaldo and Bale

7 losses in a row, followed by an 8-0 win, followed by 4 more losses.

**** this. have sold them off now, trying something new. Anyone wanna recommend a team? Tempted to try a front duo of Aguero and IF Tevez...

950k.

Can't say I've any preference with formation. I think I do better with 2 strikers up front though, but also seem to do better with wingers/widemidfielders too.

possibly too much prem, but i think that team would crush. right side maybe too weak defensively though.

Lord TSC

Quite like the look of the PL-centric team actually. Hadn't looked at 89 rated De Bryune, but his passing, shooting and dribbling look absolutely incredible, and I really like the Sanchez/Vidal/Alaba left side. That looks awesome, going to go with that one. Thanks

Now if only the servers weren't down >_<

http://www.futbin.com/16/squad/322954 this might be better, IF fahrmann was a beast when i used him and right side is more solid defensively. and 3 league hybrids are lots of fun to play with. toure on 8 chem with loyalty and manager should be fine also.

Saw an instant improvement with those changes.

First team got out of Div 4 easily, but then 3 losses on the bounce in Div 3. Made the changes and it's 3 wins and 1 draw, and the 1 draw was one of those "I had 20 shots, he had 1, and it ends 1-1". Just couldn't finish them off.

De Bryune is so awesome. Really loving him so far.

How the hell do you all afford such good players?
I'm assuming you aren't finding them in packs... At least not regularly.

I'd say it's from buying and selling players in bulk as the market fluctuates.

I only ever make coin off matches and promotion/relegation bonuses. 40k for In-Form Hamsik will be my biggest buy yet...

jayo26

Sold off my top players like Ronaldo, neymar, bale and suarez built up just under 3 million gonna keep it to build some team of the season teams in may.

In meantime I made two sides from players I had lying around and for first time this year I won division 2.




Bought Costa I had the rest. It really don't matter how good your players are within reason.

v3ttel

Nice.... Memphis is brilliant in game. He has the best stats out of all the wingers I've used. Tempted to put something similar together with Smalling, Rooney at CM with Ramires.

Diego Costa looks like he's decent but I can't use anyone without 4 star skills upfront. That only leaves Aguero who is expensive enough.

Eriksen is ridiculous with free kicks too. He scores from everywhere.

Bought my first ever team of the week player today in Arnautovic, happy out
Saving for Barkley whos about 35K and then think thats my team finished, only player Im not sure about is Lamela and even then Im happy with him.

draft is just not worth it anymore

too little players of value to pack

they'd need to up the prizes to make it worthwhile, i've won it and got a 50k pack and not gotten 15k back in total

also the fact that draft mode is pure aids to play aswell. its really not worth it, i am addicted to it though

in general fut is aids recently

playing career mode more recently, and it feels like a different game, so hassle and stress free compared to fut

draft is like suicide mode though, you're either in or out, everyone is on game and it's tough going

Its the trophy I was after, need it for platinum, got to the final game and dominated lost 3-1

v3ttel

I seem to be on a good run where I can't do anything wrong. I'm on an 11 game win streak at the moment alternating between 4-3-3, 4-3-3(4) and 4-3-1-2 with two cheap teams and one expensive one. Actually went 5 games without conceding a goal which is strange. The lads I played weren't muck either, some of them had won D1. I don't understand the massive swings in the game. What's the bets that I'll have a horrendous run now and will be back to giving away dodgy penalties left, right and center.

Kinda off topic guys but gonna do a few season mode games for first time this year what 4 star teams do people like to use? I generally like to stay away from the star teams so will try out a few teams.

Its why I didn't even bother looking at achievements this year. Knew it would be nigh on impossible to win, so didnt even stress myself about it.
