Won 5 of my last 6 games. Park the bus in all games and was completely out played but won 5. I find most ppl in the wl can attack very well but when they give up chances they are sitters so ptb with every player on come back when defending suits me for cheeky counters and harry kane headers. Never got as many people calling me a bastard and cnut but I qualified for next weekend by the skin of my teeth. 18 wins from 40.

It's how most people play now. I cut do it personally. I'm not good enough to defend deep, I have to press high and try and win the ball before they get over half way
Really hoping all of Lingard, young and Rooney get in the totw this week. Have untradeable Kante so lingard, Rooney Kante would make a nice midfield 3 I think. Also red Mooy as backup. Young left back, if kolasinac next to bailly in the middle. Front 3 Martial then wait and see what there is. Maybe just get Messi and Dembele.
Decided I'm going to wait for the next scream boosts, sell Hagi and do a couple of the icon SBC's
Can they definitely be used with their upgraded rating?

Yeah. Sturridge is a 90!
Decent I’ll wait till the dates are confirmed and then sell up.

You a city fan?
For my sins. I think its for the same reason I play Fifa, self torture haha.
feck me must have committed a lot of sins!
I love players playing PTB. They invite sooo much pressure. In WL you have to be able to score a shed load of goals so playing PTB won’t help you against the really good players.
Arent they starting now? Seen something in the game, but not sure if started yet
I’ve not been on today so couldn’t tell you.
They are active
Finished on a 7 game winning run but still only managed silver 1 after my dreadful start

Try and search a transfer and let me know if it freezes please
Mine seems fine mate.
Strange mines just started working again. Had to leave it on the screen for about 20 minutes. Time to try and get these sbcs done
Woop! Gold 2 with two games and 35 mins to spare. Would’ve managed it a match sooner, but prime Schmeichel denied me in the previous match.
Haven't done the weekend league so far this year, so this one coming will be the first. Assuming I qualify that is.
One of the biggest reasons the weekend league is so toxic is that it’s the only real way of making coins outside of trading.
Worked all weekend so had no time again to play any WL except for last night. Played what I could, and went 10-2, with the 2 losses coming at the very end of the run after a 10-0 start. Makes me wonder how badly I'd have choked to end up in gold 2 if i had time to play all 40 
Van Der Sar is a monster though. He is every bit as good for me as De Gea seems to be, but for 400k you'd expect that

My new team after selling Hagi. Prime Hernandez looks an absolute monster and I can't wait to try him out next week.
Brought in Kante aswell as I was sick of being too open with 433(4) hopefully this should provide some stability and my front 3 are all stupid quick should shouldn't have any problems transitioning.

Have to give a shout out to @Mr Anderson as I used your slider settings and @P-Nut0712 as I took your advice how to beat the game on legendary. Got my first Elite 3 finish on squad battles, Could have easily got Elite 2 but I don't think Mega Packs are worth it. Cheers guys!
Price is ridiculous for normal Pogba. I stand to make at least 80k if I sell him. I might cash in
Nice one man!
Cheers mate! Can't believe how changing slider settings can alter your game so much.
What was the advice I'm intrigued? I can only win the easy/equal lvl on legendary.
Cheers do you find you need to set your striker to target man then? I usually have mine set to get in behind which i think hampers the type of play suggested
I play 4-3-2-1, with Sane, Jesus and Sterling set to 'Run in behind', Cazorla to join attack with Bakayoko to stay behind and Herrea neutral at he has high work rate for Attacking and Defending. I used the custom tactics on page 74 from @Mr Anderson and they worked a treat.
When do TOTY cards come out? Half wondering whether I should hoard packs and wait to open them until then?
Isnt it when the Ballon Dor gets announced and the TOTY after that in the same evening and they all pose together on the stage?
Mid January I think.
Last year it was January, this year it can be earlier, but not later. Remember there were rumours this year of October, turned out to be bullshit. Since they dont rely on the ballon dor, as i initially thought, i dont think it will be in December then, rather January if they stick with the same plan as last year
I’ve got endless exams right now, feck my life. Really want to get back to playing fifa
Need some advice lads.. on normal game modes, I play 3-5-1-1.. I think its called, with a holding midfielder and a number 10, as well as 2 wingers supporting front man but this formation is banned from ultimate team so I am really struggling with picking a formation which kind of replicates it.
Went 4231.. attacking wise, I loved it.. but defensively, was leaking goals and lack of a specific CDM made it vulnerable to long shots, and I haven't mastered defending yet so 2 CB's made it vulnerable.
Went with 5-2-1-2 but it lacks wingers, and it is a decent formation against your average joe but against good players, I attack too centrally and they can pick me off unless I play ultra defensively - which ruins the enjoyment for me as it turns into a grindfest.
4-3-3.. or 5-2-3.. I miss not having a number 10 and relying on just wide play, love having a support striker.
.. what do you suggest lads? any way I can customise the formations?
Also I've put all my loan cards in the reserves as I want to establish a playing system and be able to win regularly without needing the 'stars'.. so any help re: above would be great.

Won four out four of my squad battles on Ultimate. Problem was they were all 2-0 wins so i only broke the 2500 point mark twice.
Im making chances, just need to put em away.
