I'll be after wijnaldum too, I'm surprised how many people have him in their team

Osmosis Jones

Yep, got Pirlo and then immediately traded him in for Nainggolan

18 of my 30 sold so far :P I love him.

Osmosis Jones

Knew I'd concede somehow as soon as my headed clearance went straight to my opponent's open player rather than in the direction I had chosen. https://streamable.com/lyhto

I'm 15-5 and I've lost all will to play.

I can beat icons, I can beat ronaldo and bale but I can't beat a midfield of antonio and sane :mad::(

A light pass hits my own defender and it ricochets like a bullet to his martial who just happens to be in acres of space.

He also fouled me from behind in the box yet his defender only gets a yellow and the penalty just happens to be saved :mad:

Never doing this again. Just hate it. I'd like to get to Silver three out of principal but just despise the mode.

What's your idea of not expensive? :pac:

IF Mooy was a beast for me at CM, and if you could afford his SIF he'd be an even bigger beast

Dembele was always good too, but a little low on stamina and usually the guy taken off for a supersub

For CAM you can't go wrong with Eriksen he does everything, and if you're good at shooting from distance and not an awful pacewhore Ibra does well at CAM too

Cheers I just got if mooy and he is a bit of a beast alright,he reminds me of naingolan when I had him and for a fraction of the price,I have futmas wijnaldum and the 91 pirlo but he brings chem a way down,I just wish I got him before I sold my calcio team

Can prove stop complaining about WL already? The mode is the only real point of playing UT. You are testing yourself against the best players, it's not meant to be easy or everyone would get elite 1.

Maybe some of you just aren't very good?

I'm crap at the transfer market myself, would love to be as good as some of the lads here. I bought lukaku a couple for weeks ago to flip, spent 130k. He's half that now. Pretty benchwarmer.

Osmosis Jones

Seems I've come down off the high of yesterday, managed to get 10 wins from 13 games and today I've gotten 2 wins from 5. Feels much more like last year when games felt decided within the first 5 minutes based on how players felt.

From what I can see, most people's problem isn't with the calibre of opponent. It's the amount of games and the timeframe you have to squeeze them into.

RossieMan

If you've any life at all, 40 games is impossible to play.
25 like pc would be much better.
There's hardly any players on pc though so you see the better players a lot more often I find. I was PS4 last year.

Osmosis Jones

I just don't understand why it's limited to 3 days a week, is there any other video game on the planet that says "you can only play our competitive mode from Friday to Sunday"?

jayo26

Can I just say to anyone worried about their team just don't!!!! I've a bloody defence of Ferdinand and baily and schmeicheal I goal and I'm getting beaten by teams with crappy forwards. You know when you see giroud sprinting ahead of Ferdinand in the first ten minutes to score a goal that you may aswel be beating your head off a wall.

I'd normally be of a similar opinion to you, if people can go 40-0 then there's no real reason except ability stopping me, get better etc etc

I've played 4 weekend leagues this year, almost all have been a bit of a drag usually getting gold 3

Only gave online seasons a go for the first time last week and have been loving it so far, playing in it has actually been fun, games just feel a lot better and it's not just because I'm winning like from divisions 10-6, I'm in 5 now and won 4 and lost 4 so similar record to most of my weekend leagues

Played 3 games earlier today, and I might play another few this evening, I'm not under any pressure to finish x amount of games like in the weekend league and personally I can't play more than 5 in a sitting without it really dragging

Osmosis Jones

I'm so sick of playing a match for 20 minutes, only for the outcome to be decided like this

RossieMan

Seasons for me isn't a challenge. I won straight from division 10 to 1 without a single loss, Apart from a dodgy DC when I was 2-0 up.

UT is where the best players play. Might as well challenge yourself and improve. It's hard when you end up playing a team of legends, but it's a good challenge. The kick off bug is a piece of **** though.

Blazer

WL players aren't necessarily good players. Just people who have the time to play 40 matches over the weekend. However a lot of fifa players work weekends and don't have an alternative weekday league. I mean how ****in hard is it to provide a 3 day league during the week?
I've beaten guys who have gotten elite in WL and they've rage quit including one clown today hehe so to say WL is the end all and be all of FUT is an incorrect statement.

Lord TSC

I don't like weekend league.

I don't like the asses that you tend to get matched against.

I don't mind losing to people genuinely better than me. Thats part and parcel of playing online. I don't massively enjoy losing 20 games in a row, and appreciate when the seasons mode in UT actually tries, at least in theory, tries to match you to roughly the same level of player and team. But yeah, Weekend League is a higher quality of player. Sometimes.

What annoys me is all the cheesey tactics; kick offs, ultra high or ultra low pressure. Constant watching of every replay in full, usually after 30 second long celebrations; the fore EAids the goal, the more. Because there's prizes, it's people playing to win, not playing to have fun. People playing for 1-0 wins. Its just all the parts of playing against someone that I despise, and I can't be bothered with.

That doesn't mean I don't get why others don't. It's just not enjoyable to me. I will say I tend to enjoy normal seasons way, way more cause it tends to be more hectic, more end to end, everyone just trying to score as many as possible.

Do we get free packs tomorrow? Can't remember what happened last year but I do remember getting free packs before in UT on Christmas day.

Didn't get anything last year, they gave a free pack for chinese new year

I echo others gripes with weekend league. It feels like a competitive mode in a game mode that simply isn't optimized for competitive play. With the amount of random stuff that decides matches ( interceptions magically going through your legs, auto-lunges and kick off goals) it feels like you might as well be trying to play competitive mario party. Sure the best players can overcome it but they're an extreme minority and a 40 game grind under the guise of a best of the best is just not feasible for most players.

It's a pity that playing the game itself is so frustrating because I really enjoyed the futmas sbcs.

Calvin

Completed the daily group of SBCs and got SIF Mooy in my mega pack! Great return, might try him out soon

Lord TSC

Hope everyone had a nice Xmas

Decided that hoarding my coins isn't doing much for my enjoyment, so decided to nab two untradables I've had my eye on for a while.

Salah? He’s shocking bad. Futmas Musa is miles better than him. Salah is a sub for me now and i’ll Probably use him in an icon sbc or something.
