    Up to 340K now on the road to Ronaldo. I'd like to try get him around black Friday when all the prices drop a lot.

    I still have Hummels (90K), Smalling (24K), Rashford (14K) and Draxler (16K) to sell, and with a lot of the catalog coin boosts still to use.

    The downside is that I don't really have a team yet, so building two teams is going to knock me back down a good bit. I'll probably go for a Serie A team as it gives you better value for your coins. I'm not sure what second team I'd like to build yet.

    The bad thing is that I haven't really found a good way to trade that's going to work for a couple of weeks or months. The arse has fallen out of the few methods I've been using for the last few days.

    Annoying that there's no Gold Cup this year, was a welcome break from seasons. Now it's just those tournaments with specialised entry requirements.

    Extra sweaty too since they're the FUT champions qualifiers too

    Plays more like draft but with crappier teams

    With the injury crisis this year, Im building two Serie A squads. I've had cuadrado out for 5 games with a foot injury so I started by getting Salah in, who nearly cost the same as the healing card. I'm hoping to also avoid have to use squad fitness cards this way to save some coin.

    Ive spent way too much time on the market. It gets really addictive when you find ways of making coin. Trading away now to save up for Dybala and Hig, maybe that otw pjanic card.

    Fun tip: If you are playing against someone with Ramsey in their squad, go in nice and hard with the tackles. I must have taken out at least four of them already.

    Built myself a second team to go along with my united team and changed formation to 4321. I found I was constantly been over run in midfield and could only score on the counter attack.
    Screenshot_20161004_081604.pngwith this team I seem to be the one holding possession and creating chances but only played handful of games.

    Dybala is over priced for what he is im I playing him with the custom tactic instruction set to false nine and the wide forwards set to get in behind.

    I have nainagolin set to stay back while attacking which he seems to ignore at every opportunity but at least he has pace and stamina.

    That's the formation Krasi says is the best in this years FIFA and he does suggest you should have better possession with it so you could be on to a winner there.

    Did he give any tactics for it? I'm kinda happy with them at moment but don't mind trying something different. You need midfielders with good stamina I have all 3 set to aggressive interception and they do be fuked after every game.

    He didn't give any custom tactics but going on previous styles he would probably have the following:

    LB/RB stay back while attacking
    Either the Central CM or the two outside CM stay back while attacking
    LF/RF run in behind
    ST Dybala is fast so he should probably be run in behind but if you used a big strong lad not quick then just leave him as balanced.

    He would have had the back 4 set to aggressive interceptions along with 1/2 of midfielders ( whoever you have staying back )

    How are the prices on the Italian teams? I want to do a second team, but am still being a cheapskate so I can keep trading away :P

    Not saying your wrong but I would never put defenders as aggressive interceptions they would be wrecked by half time mate.

  • Registered Users Posts: 60 ✭✭MuchoLoco

    Igahlo, Wilshire & kabasle off wat have been very good for me so far! But it's starting to get sweaty probably because my Elo is going up

    I do it every year. Get some coins together, waste them on packs and be annoyed with myself :P

    you should at least try the draft and try to turn that 15k into better packs


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,779 ✭✭✭✭jayo26

    Or stick needles in your eyes it's not as painful as draft :)

    I've won both free drafts so far on Legendary in single player (I could only pick ultimate difficulty for the finals though for some reason and they were painful to play) I got Lewandowski the first time I won it and sold him for 220K.

    Any other year I would have wasted it on packs but I kept it and my whole goal this year is to save up for one of the legend players!!

    I have a cheap Dutch team at the moment I'm enjoying playing with. Promes the right winger is really good for me.

    Need to start getting into trading now, try get Suarez around TOTY time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 460 ✭✭keithc83


    Have any of ye come across the FUT glitch where your settings (Amateur, Semi Pro, Pro, etc.) outside of FUT are carried over? Had a couple of interesting Single Season games that were suppose to be "Amateur".

    Buying coins is against the EA tos so I wouldn't chance that.

    Think I am wrong on reflection. He had the back 5 ( 4 defenders and a midfielder ) set only to Stay Back While Attacking not Aggressive Defending

    That's makes more sense alright that's what I have mine setup at. Defenders are bad enough at been pulled out of position lol.

    I can't get any use of dybala in my system so I might try bacca in there even tho he is only two star weak Foot.

    Can coin boosts be used over and over again this year? I bought the 15 x 1000 boost, used it and was able to buy it again.

    Anyone know why Salah's price rocketed up this evening? I bought 13 to test trading with him this morning, each priced 900-1100 coins. All 13 sold in the last cycle for 2300-2500.

    Not complaining, twas about 18k profit, just curious as to why his price rocketed :S

    NO talk of coin buying - it is dodgy and frowned upon etc. Anyone doing so will be taking a break from the forum.

    It's not as bad this time of the year before all the special cards start coming out

    If you're a decent player getting 2 wins this time of year should mean getting your 15k back min

    I like the pressure of getting further and further though, games mean more both for winning and losing
