Gaming FIFA 19

I built my team with around that amount and its decent enough.. Can get a good team on the go for 50-60k easily

Yeah but I'm going for a Prem team. Managed to get Van Dijk in a pack yesterday so it's coming together now. Since I went 4-3-3 I've still got Zaha as my striker though so I need something better there.
 
Not having access to the transfer market on my phone is doing my head in :rolleyes:
 
Team is now

Cech
Trippier - Van Dijk - Alderweireld - Davies
Wijnaldum - Keita - Matic
Willian - Zaha - Martial
 
. How the feck do you have so many coins!
Trading and playing and sbc's! Started on the web app when it got released, doesnt take all that long to build up a decent amount of coins tbh.
Also selling everyone when they're expensive (like today and the liverpool players during the sbc that had them at minimum 10k) and then buying when people get cheap is easy coins. People buy their teams Thursday night in anticipation for the weekend league, and sell on Sunday. So Sunday night/Monday is cheapest, thursday/Friday is most expensive.

Dabo in france and Gomes from Dortmund both turn out brilliant. As does our own Gomes, Angel :)
 
What's everyone's custom tactics looking like? Seems a lot use the "constant pressure" which can be a bitch but I tend to just keep the ball a lot and be more Conservative for the first half so they wear themselves out, then massive gaps appear as the game goes on.

I bought Vardy yesterday but sold him after 2 games and packed Zaha today so was gonna use him :lol: Your team looks good to me, I would be happy with that personally!

I just find it hard with Zaha in the middle as most of my attacks end out on the wings and then my crosses are easily cleared.
 
Nice one, will look into them as well. Read somewhere some Italian dude named Tonali turns out great.

I think i know who you're on about! Also Bayern's young keeper Fruchtl or something I think? Is brilliant. I bought Haaland from Molde too and he's been an absolute beast.

Sancho

Those should turn out decent also
 
I see a lot of people on twitter doing an SBC for 2 champions league players. Does it cost much?
 
So rumours are that the next round of champions league fixtures will see another champions league marquee match ups. They choose a game from the Tuesday and a game from the Wednesday. Last time they chose Liverpool and players were selling for 9k+ each.

Manutd Vs Juventus is the highest reputation game going on the Tuesday, making it highly likely that United and Juve will be apart of that SBC. With that in mind i am going “all in” on united players hoping to see them go from 800-1100k to 5k plus in 3 weeks time.

I am awful at player trading and don’t do it that much, but this looks like a no brainer if i can suffer for 3 weeks with a rubbish team while i invest all my coins in it. Now watch them pick another fixture :lol:

Balanced everything and I turn constant pressure on and off via in game instruction, team press or whatever its called. I never defend and let the AI do it for me, anytime I accidentally use a defender I concede, I'm pretty bad (skill rating of 1350 or so).

Vs Squad Battles Fullbacks overlap all the time (breaking down the AI takes numbers and they are a little easier to defend against)
Vs Human Players Fullbacks stay back at all times (humans attack better but defend far worse than the AI).

The centre of my 3 CM's is on stay back at all time on both settings. I use 4321 formation.

No, if you have lots of gold untradables its pretty much free. You need 6 rare gold players and only 50 chem which is easily achieved. I got CL Alderweireld out of it just there,
I've done it exactly times and mostly got junk mind.

But hey if I get 1 60k player for every 5 attempts I'll be delighted.

You are guaranteed 1 rare player CL card from it, and of the 300ish rare CL players available, 100 are boards or better (which is 83 rated). Its the reason I'm tempted to take untradable packs for rewards this week, I did it today with my Div Rivals and it got me Toby, if I'd taken the cash I'd of only got 32k.

I always take untradable. They are useful for the SBCs if I get someone I don't intend to play. The nightmare is getting someone like say Dybala who I wouldn't change my full squad for but also wouldn't want to use him in an sbc
 
Spent 40k on players to do that 2 UCL player pack sbc a bunch of times. Got Sane, Verratti, Rabiot, Dani Alves, Lucas Hernandez of those who are notable. Sane alone makes it more than worth it! Happy with that.
 
How can you tell the difference in a rare and no rare champions league card?

When you look at the cards (not on the web app), the rare ones will be kind of flashing blue now and then... Literally only way. Though it's basically all the base cards of those players determine if they're rare or not. So rare gold base card, it's a rare UCL card.

God damn I read about SBC's and they seem so worth it but then I get home and it seems like so much work. Whenever I open a pack I sell all the players I don't need. Should I be keeping them for these SBC's?

Oh right so no way on the web app without checking the base card? Who’s usually the cheapest champions league rare card?

Don't ever quicksell people, you can always sell them for more if nothing else. Futbin is good for seeing prices really quickly. I usually sell most people unless it's like a decently high rated card, then I keep it in my tradepile until their price shoots up (like 83, 84's and above)... happens eventually.
For sbc's that I actually do I just buy the players I need or use the untradeables if I can. Makes very little difference if they're in your club from before.

Also a lot of them are a bit of a pain in the ass, but this UCL upgrade is super easy. 6 rare gold players and 5 non rares, all gold, 50 chem... costs like 7-8k if you buy everything, and seems to have a good drop rate.

No idea to be honest. And only difference I've seen is the shine... so not too useful on the web app.

They are a different shape. The non rare have a flat top and the rare has some sort of spikes at the top
 
Chose the two mega packs and 2 rare consumables as my reward. We’ll see if i get complete anything good.
 
If you get duplicate players don't quick sell them just use one of them on an sbc

Yeah I’ve just done one finally. Got a decent return from my trades I left up over the day and bought Harry Kane for 110k. Just scored an absolute belter in my first game with him.
 
Any ideas on how I can change my ultimate team name? I was assigned one when I set it up.
 
Why is the finishing so hard in this game? It seems like only driven shots and finesse shots can be scored. Anytime I try to use just the shoot button it simply trickles to the keeper

If you are a high enough level you can redeem a name change from the catalogue.
 
Got an option of weekly rewards, not sure what to do!, thoughts?

1) x2 Mega Pack (untradeable), x2Rare Player Packs (untradeable)

2) 44k coins

3) x1 Rare Player Pack, x1 Mega Pack (Tradeable)

Went with Option 3 in the end and the highest rated player I got was Joaquin, what a complete joke:lol:
 
The ping pong passing by the AI is actually quite absurd.
 
I keep getting thrashed as players can just cross and head it so easily now :lol:

Also for some reason players always get in behind my full backs even when I play deep :(
 
I'm liking the game so far. But it is complete pandemonium :lol:

It's fast paced which I like, but every game feels insane the way it plays. I've got it on balanced because when I went with previous tactics all my players sprint off up the pitch with quick build up on.

The shooting is completely random, sometimes you want your player to put their foot through it but for some reason they hit it with the inside of their boot.

One plus side so far is your team plays more realistic. I used to get idiots passing around at the back of they took the lead, knowing the AI won't push my team up sometimes, no matter what I tried. Now you can press them into oblivion without using pressing tactics. The marker above the nearest player helps with this.

So far I can't dribble past players easily. You can't out run players when you have the ball and it's too responsive when defending to beat them with directional changes easily. You can just recover too quick when defending to let the attacker get away from you.

Hopefully they don't change too much with updates and make it monotonous like last year.
 
My son has spent zero on packs he’s just been getting them as rewards....on Wednesday he got a Figo legend card (sold for 940k and bought a decent team) and last night got Messi.....jammy fooker.
