Gaming FIFA 18 Ultimate Team

I'm attempting a La Liga/Brazilian/French League hybrid with no dead links. For it to work I need a Spanish CDM. Is Busquets worth the money or shall I use a budget CDM such as Iborra?

Change Saul position. He's a beast
 
Is it better to win comfortably on one difficulty or win narrowly on the difficulty above? I expected the former but looks like it might be the latter.
 
casimiro?
Got him as my other CDM with Gabriel Jesus up front and Firmino as the CAM. On the other side I've got Isco as the CAM so now I'm thinking about it, it'll have to Busquets and Morata up front as the other striker otherwise Casemiro will have a dead link between the other CDM.

Move Saul to CDM with a positioning card. He's miles better than Busquets.

I do professional, tight wins are 900ish points, hammering teams is 1200 or so. Think world class was around 1400-1800? Forget.

Won 4-3 on WC and got about 1500. Won 6-4 on Legendary and got about 2300.

It's more amount of goals rather then tightness. 1-0 or 2-1 or pens will be lower end, 4 or 5 goals and you'll be on the higher end I think.
 
While this game is a pile of turd at the moment it has made me aware of this girl:



Check out her other songs. She's fecking phenomenal.

Try Saul mate. Really good player and can get about.

Koke.
 
My team is now Courtois, Aurier, Bailly, van Dijk (will upgrade to Azpi as soon as Robben sells), Rose, Alli, Bakayoko, Martial, Willian, Lukaku, Jesus.

Handanovic,Florenzi, Manolas, Koulibaly, Alex Sandro, Marchisio, Hamsik, Perisic, Filipe Anderson, Belotti, Mertens.

Will upgrade Belotti with Dybala soon.
 
So apparently the toty might come out next week? If so that would be a huge crash very early on. So I'm tempted to sell everyone this friday and do cheapish (100-200k each) teams this and next WL but use a legend like Shevchenko in both teams. The actual team of the year is this coming Monday. So if it is, then everyone will crash hard but apparently legends normally stay stable so it seems low risk (plus trying out a legend).

No way!? Who's your source? I just blew my last remainig coins on IF Bakambu. Could be a great time to purchase during the hype.
 
How come prices crash when toty comes out?
Every man and their dog opens a shitload of packs hoping to get one of the TOTY cards, leading to a flood of players on the market. People also sell their players to fund more packs. It's basically just a massive firesale to buy as many packs as possible.
 
I've just bought Modric but can't play until November due to sky being counts and taking forever to get this Internet installed. Considering selling everyone and rebuying when toty drops
 
I bought Lacazette this morning but Im yet to try him. Even think Antonio played better than him as a partner to Jesus. Other options are Lacazette, Vardy, IF Morata, and Aguero if yiu have the coins. Maybe a hunter'ed Firmino might be decent.
I've bought Diego Costa but yet to try him but heard good things about him.

When will it drop do you think?

The award slightly changed and is now entirely based on lastseason and not the calender year, and is released Oct 23rd. Fifpro world 11 part of it which is what they made the TOTY out of.

Quick question on that. Would someone like Messi go up or down in price? He'll be in the toty so his normal card out of packs which makes him more rare right? Might just get him surrounded by a 300k team instead of Sheva in 2 teams.
 
Anyone has a suggestion for a good LW for a Premier League team ? Away from the expensive ones as Martial and Sane ?

I have tried Miralles and Nkoudou with little success so far. On the right Zaha is doing the job for me pretty fine.

Son, I haven't used him this year but I assume he's still got 5* weak foot and a rocket of a shot.

Son and that's about it. Hardly anyone available tbf. I used to have mirralas as swell and he was trash

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try Son when I get the coins enough to buy him. Hope he solve the LW mess for me.
 
So now everyone seems to have settled on what is 'meta', the game has been very boring for me. Every game seems to be a 41212 narrow (or insta pause to make it a 41212), ping pong passing until they are at the goal. The early weeks of various styles working has gone, all there is is this now

I'm actually trying that formation now. Not due to the meta, but to fit 2 strikers and a number 10.
To be honest, thinking of going back to wingers

:confused: Less than half of my opponents use that formation. I don’t use it.
 
Sold him, didnt like him really.

Tell me about it. Really disappointed in him :(. Tempted to take off the hunter card and see if a dribbling card helps, if not, I've probably given up on him. The amount of times hes control loses the ball is very dissapointing.

I'm curious why prices keep dropping at the moment. Bought him the other day for 280, was going for 330+ a few days before that, and now 250ish. Taking a hit on him it seems :(

You literally just stopped using that formation :lol: . According to previous teams you posted anyway.

I'd say 30-35 of my oppo's in WL used that formation. About 20 of them had Jesus and Rashford. All of them played or tried to play the way you described. Ping pong to the box. Passing is too accurate.
