    people must be getting them in the upgrade packs (because i am definitely not!!)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,231 ✭✭✭mutley18


    Any advice on the below lads? I was thinking PIM Viera where Lahm is and move Lahm over to take Caquerets place. Mainly play 41212 narrow in game. I have 2.5m and loads of fodder.

    Probably going to open all saved packs on Friday for Bundesliga in the hope of getting Bellingham or Nkunku.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,882 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    Yeah must be, i did 8 of them last night, nothing at all, used up my luck getting Son in the marquee matchups



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,327 ✭✭✭✭Cyrus


    got a trent earlier, could sell my tradeable, happy enough!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,882 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    Sad to say as a liverpool fan but im selling Jota already, nowhere near Weghorst level, fifa really is just rubbish

    30+ picks later and I’ve finally got a TOTS - Alisson, who I already have red. Oh well, good fodder for Vieira.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,518 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Once the Bundesliga TOTS releases, Nkunku will have 11 cards in the game. Literally an entire team of Nkunkus.

    That’s outrageous. 😂



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,610 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Mitrovic from the EFL SBC. Looks really good, but not sure he displaces Werghorst due to chemistry.


    mainly did it to have a high rated TOtS ready for the BPL one.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,327 ✭✭✭✭Cyrus


    i must say alissons pace is very noticeable, anyone takes a heavy touch when one on one and he is on top of them.


    current outfit, marquinhos goes into midfield if im not playing 352





  • Registered Users Posts: 1,075 ✭✭✭Boulders8


    What are we thinking might be the requirements for the Guaranteed EPL TOTs? 88 or 87 squad with one TOTs player required? Hopefully, it won’t be more than one squad even if an 88. I have a duplicate Rice TOTs to put in plus undtradable base Robertson so need something to put them into

    Premium Upgrade packs finally payed out with a TOTS Son, get to sell the one I bought on Monday as well


    The TOTS Pack will probably be Rodri/Allison/Rice simulator



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,075 ✭✭✭Boulders8


    Put in my duplicate TOTs Rice into the PL TOTs pack - terrified I’d get him back, got Jota, not the greatest but at least it wasn’t Rice again or duplicates of Bernado Silva and Allison who I already had



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,156 ✭✭✭Giggsy_


    Trent who I have as a red

    and De Gea best card from the 83x5 ……



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,222 ✭✭✭Calvin


    Allison for me… that’s the 3rd one this week. Shaw + 83s from the other pack too.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,610 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Not Ronaldo, but I’ll take it.


    now…who gets dropped from Dias and Varane :S



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,468 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    3 at the back



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,610 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Yeah, seems an obvious one to try too, especially since I don’t play with wingers. Not tried it all year but might have to give it a go now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,518 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Give it a go, it’s great fun and so is the abuse you’ll get from all the cutbacks you’ll score. You’ll be attacking with 5 players, or 6 if you want to push one of your central midfielders up as well.

    TOTS Silva is a perfect LM in a 3-5-2, for what it’s worth.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,075 ✭✭✭Boulders8


    After avoiding getting Rice back in the PL TOTs pack, did the 83x5 PL pack and best of that was 85 Thiago Silva.

    Had the 2 85+ player packs that EA gave out at the start of TOTs hanging about so opened them - got a 86 La Liga DMOTM orange card in first and then came the obligatory TOTs duplicate - Alisson!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,468 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    Bruno from the tots pack and Dias from the 83+ x5.

    Two players I didn't need as I already Rudiger at back and De Bruyne, Fernandinho and Fofana in midfield as well as Rodri.

    Rudiger definitely feels way better than Dias's tots card. That +5 to agility and balance makes a huge difference I feel.

    Silva haunting me, I have his red, packed him and got him again in the guaranteed TOTS pack!!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,222 ✭✭✭Calvin


    It’s fantastic. I’m using it with FB Gomez + Varane on either side of prime Rio and TOTY Hakimi + TOTS TAA on the wings feeding balls into 94 Mbappe + Weghorst. Lots of fun.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,468 ✭✭✭✭Blazer




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 522 ✭✭✭Avon8


    Have expiremented a good bit and Toty Hakimi is miles clear of everyone as a winger in the 3-5-2. I'm currently using him and Toty Cancelo as the 2 and wouldn't swap them out for cards costing 1m (twice as much)



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,075 ✭✭✭Boulders8


    Ronaldo has won POTM for April - 94 rated card



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,175 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr Moon


    Very expensive!!

    83+TOTW

    84+TOTW

    85

    86+TOTW

    87

    88+TOTW

    89



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,222 ✭✭✭Calvin


    Balanced

    40 width

    55 depth

    Long ball

    Direct passing

    45 width

    7 in the box

    1/1 for corners + FK


    Stay central/in behind/stay forward on whichever ST wins the headers - other one on stay central/stay forward

    CAM - stay forward/get into the box

    LM/RM - come back on defence, get in behind, get into the box

    Both DMs - cut passing lanes, stay back, cover center


    Got nothing in rivals packs this week, 1x championship TOTS. Went out and bought both TOTS Salah + VVD, 7m coins left now.. was going to buy Mane but will try Salah first.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,610 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    About 800k. And given fodder being thrown at everyone now, that won’t be too hard to grind.


    I had hoped, beyond hope, to pack his TOTS, but given the price of it, I’ll settle for this now. Thrilled to get a grindable Ronaldo at this point, who really isn’t three million coins worth of value less that the TOTS



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,175 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr Moon


    I have his TOTY and he's barely making my team now, only cos it's Ronaldo. The 94 won't be that good in game, but I know where you're coming from, I just grinded out Rooney with fodder and dupes from opening packs.

    Seven games today playing a 5212, with attacking wing backs.


    six of them had people spamming me abusive messages afterwards 😂 I wouldn’t mind, I’m not being deep and negative. High line, high press, wing backs whipping in crosses. Still get people moaning about negative football.



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,175 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr Moon


    I've never messaged anyone for their style of play. It baffles me why people do.

    What's your team looking like?



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,610 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Literally every game now, I’m getting people getting pissy. It’s incredible.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,882 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    I get that regular, i have played 532 or 5212 nearly 90% of the time since the start and im a rat apparantly, even though im on 85 depth, press on heavy touch and i attack with 2 wing backs, 3 CM's or 2 with CAM and 2 strikers



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,882 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    Laughable part is, the guys who message play with 4 at the back, but when i look at the map, i can see they have 1 CM or CDM dropping between their CB's to make 5 to 😄



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,984 ✭✭✭✭Osmosis Jones


    It's always people playing 442/4231 with both fullbacks and both CMs on Stay Back anyway.

    So EA ended WL 24 hours early during Prem TOTS, meaning lots of people never got to finish their games and get their Prem TOTS red picks.

    As compensation EA are giving everyone 1500 WL qualification points and they'll be releasing an objective for a 45k pack...



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,175 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr Moon


    Must give that 5212 a go!! I play 352 a lot what difference does it give you?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 522 ✭✭✭Avon8


    I've not used 5-2-1-2 but I'd imagine it's just a tad more defensive version of the 3-5-2 which is very attacking, on base setups anyway. Obviously a bit depends on the settings used

    Tbh, my eyes roll whenever I'm up against that 4-2-2-2 that over half of players seem to be playing. That's very very defensive to my mind. Usually the wide players are on come back with stay back mids. That and the horrific 4-2-3-1 always end up in the worst games in my experience



  • Administrators Posts: 54,168 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    Just played a WL qualifier against some snake who had loaded his team up with loan cards.

    He was 3-0 up and he quit when I went 4-3 ahead.

    It's ridiculous that loan cards are allowed in WL tbh.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,882 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    Yeah arnt they also the formations that get mentioned a lot on youtube lately, along with the 4222, im also trying out the 4312 using my 5212 tactics, not quite as effective but still 6 wins from 10 rival matches

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,468 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    It never bothered me to be honest. I always think it’s someone who hardly ever plays and using these cards allows him to stay close to the power curve.



  • Administrators Posts: 54,168 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec




  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,610 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Oh, I was called a rat three times today 😂


    my 5212 is effectively a 3412 in practice, but since I’m using PIM Carlos and TOTS TAA, starting them off as wing backs gets them fill chem. I have them set up to join the attack, overlap, etc. Same as Rock, I play a high line, higher pressure and try to win the ball high up the field. Can’t stand ultra defensive football, but people see the 5atb and just freak out. It’s hilarious.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,882 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    Flying Flipper, Deepsea Future or Defiant Species Tifo

    I cant decide lads, i may switch off, sleep on it, and come back to it in the morning



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,882 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    Been messing around with the 4312 and im actually the game, 85 depth, press on heavy touch, balanced build up and forward runs and send everybody forward, Trent and Robbo, Jones, Keita the CM's, Dalglish CAM, Jota and Weghorst up front

    I have had 7 quits in 9 games this evening, Weghorst is a monster at the back post, unbeatable, might try this in champs tomorrow



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,518 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Managed to power through all my games tonight, scraped 11 wins and it came right down to the last one. And my picks:

    Ndicka 92 and Diaby 92

    Pretty happy with those, and then I opened the Ultimate Pack and Diaby popped out again so that’s a handy 150k. Definitely going to be using him as an impact sub, stats look great. Ndicka’s worth a fortune but I can’t fit him in on full chem.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 522 ✭✭✭Avon8


    Stupidly stayed up late, 14-5. Few stupid losses in there annoyingly. Slightly easier tonight than the last 2 weeks.

    Wirtz 95 and Frimpong 91. Won't play either but both look excellent subs. Diaby, Neuer and Keane in the tots pack, all to be sold. Have put up my main tradeables (eusebio & Messi) there as won't be playing for a couple of weeks, albiet top end of the market seems to be staying steady



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,231 ✭✭✭mutley18


    Saved the 85 x 20 for Bundesliga TOTS and I packed....some crap EFL TOTS. I was expecting at least 2 Bundesliga 😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,882 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    Anybody use moments Van Basten, would love to try him out but his medium medium workrates and accelaration could be a problem, which is a shame because he really should be one of the best strikers in this game



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,610 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    10 wins 😭 one off a double pick.


    neuer, Raum and muller. Took Muller. Likely fodder but might get a little bit of usage first.
