Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted December 28, 2017 Subscriber Posted December 28, 2017 Started a new Ultimate Team as I've got back into FIFA over Christmas with the down time. My first UT was shite as I just mashed the top rated players into a squad with no chemistry. This time I've gone with a Spanish/La Liga squad with a couple of irrelevant players I've got in packs and are two good to leave out. Early days but: [Servers down, will post later] Quote

Bluebird Hewitt Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 Just now, Happy Blue said: It seems to work best doesn't it I had a strikeforce of Bendtner (mainly as he was tall and had good strength. Don't judge) and Sturridge in FIFA 14 with my Cardiff team. One decent through ball set Sturridge away all the time. I fully understand that some players are quicker than others but it's close to game breaking at times (not a dig at you in the slightest and more at the game itself). Quote

It is kind of a broken game and a shame when you find a player you like is too slow to buy because some crap player is going to beat him to the ball purely because he's fast ...i might start a new season and not buy any player with more than a 75 speed rating to see if it makes the game more realistic Quote

Carnivore Chris Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 (edited) I doubt I will bother much with it now as it gets boring, but this is what it is:- Strongest 11: Donnarumma(92) Semedo(88) - Laporte(91) - Christensen(89) - Grimaldo(89) Verratti(91) -- Saul(91) Asensio(92) Dembele(92) -- Mbappe(94) -- Jesus(91) Second Team: Kepa(86) De Mafeo(84) - Rugani(89) - Umtiti(88) - Cucurella(85) Aleña(87) -- Ceballos(89) -- Tielemans(90) Pulisic(91) ---------------- Deulofeu(89) Keita Balde(91) Edited January 2, 2018 by The Rebel CRS Quote

Cicero Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Maybe you should move up from amateur to professional then Quote
Carnivore Chris Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) Decided to start a career with Blackburn Rovers. The plan is to buy young players(specifically teenagers) and grow them as I progress back up the leagues and hopefully take the club to the top of the pile in England. I've got some take overs I can use since I've never used one, so I used one of them in my first season. This enabled me to bring in 8 players, 4 of them were purchases and 4 were 2 season loanees. The take over was about 42 million or so in total I think. Carles Aleña(75), CM - 18 million from Barcelona B Marc Cucurella(69), LB - 3.1 million from Barcelona B Ezequiel Barco(75), LW - 10.3 million from Independiente Lautaro Martinez(73), ST - 7 million from Racing Club Rob Holding(73), CB - 2 year loan from Arsenal Tom Davies(74), CM - 2 year loan from Everton Marcus Edwards(67), RM - 2 year loan from Spurs Angel Gomes(65), CAM - 2 year loan from Man United 6 of them are starters, 2 are super subs. Very strong side for this level and I should have no problems getting promoted in the first season. Edited January 3, 2018 by The Rebel CRS Quote
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted January 3, 2018 Subscriber Posted January 3, 2018 Forgot how much of a grind getting coins is on ultimate team. Trying to save up 30k for Busquets to go in my Spanish/La Liga team, played for about 4 hours today and not got enough. At the moment I've got: GK - Oblak, Asenjo RB - Carvajal, Juanfran LB - Alba, Filipe Luis CB - Javi Martinez, Gimenez, Mascherano, Savic DM - Nzonzi, De Rossi, Fabregas, Gabi RM - Pedro, Vela LM - Carrasco, Deulofeu CAM - Franco Vazquez, Boudebouz ST - Morata, Ben Yedder Enjoyed doing something besides what everyone else does with "get every fast player from the Premier League" approach.

Cicero Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 In my 3rd season and I've already won the league in October. Difficulty and realism in this game is still a shambles. Quote
Subscriber Dan+ Posted January 4, 2018 Subscriber Posted January 4, 2018 Think I'm finally going to be an Ultimate Team wanker. Going to build a bit of a different type of squad though as I can't be arsed having the same as everyone else. Maybe something like Mexican or Uruguayan. Quote

Portugal's a no-brainer actually. Perfect. Quote
UNORTHODOX Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 I tried to go for a different approach in FUT so i don't have to rely on pace, I spent all my funds on Ibrahimovic and Giroud up top thinking their finishing and heading would get me bags of goals, what a huge fucking mistake 7 games in and 2 goals between the 2 of them.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted January 4, 2018 Subscriber Posted January 4, 2018 Just been playing Ultimate Team online. My side isn't exactly blessed with loads of pace so I enjoyed getting 4 wins and 1 draw against a succession of boring cunts who all have Aurier/Bellerin, Danny Rose, Bakayoko, and a front three picked from Sane/Mane/Vardy/Sterling/Lacazette. Love that other people are making teams with something a bit different. I've managed to afford Busquets at last so next I'll be saving up for Iniesta followed by Benzema which will see my team look like this at full strength: Oblak 88 Carvajal 84 Martinez 86 Gimenez 83 Alba 85 Fabregas 86 Busquets 86 Pedro 84 Iniesta 87 Carrasco 85 Benzema 86 Quote

They're too similar to play together. Quote
Carnivore Chris Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 (edited) I admittedly skipped a lot of the games in the second half of the season as I got bored of that league and wanted my new players in . Won League One with ease though, won the Checkatrade trophy by simming(shite trophy) and got knocked out of the Carabao cup vs Leicester on pens after a 3-3 thriller and against Bournemouth after a 3-2 game in the F.A cup early rounds, both games of which I played of course. I simmed a lot of games, but won't be doing so in any other season now. Since it's back to work tomorrow, I doubt I'll have time to fanny around much on it either to be honest. 18-19: David Villa, ST - Free transfer De Ligt, CB - 18 million from Ajax Odriozola, RB - 20 million from Bournemouth Dani Ceballos, CM - 2 year loan from Real Madrid Goncalo Guedes, LW - 2 year loan from PSG Christian Fruchtl ,GK - 2 year loan from Bayern Fruchtl(71) Odriozola(81) - De Ligt(79) - Holding(75) - Cucurella(74) Aleña(79) -- Ceballos(82) Guedes(81) ----------------- Barco(80) D.Villa(80) -- L.Martinez(78) That's some line-up for the Championship.

That or Liga MX, although I've done both before. If you have a go on career mode, then take a look at Lautaro Martinez and Ezequiel Barco, from Independiente and Racing respectively. Both are growing quickly for my Blackburn Rovers team and cost about 15 mil for the pair of them. Edited January 9, 2018 by The Rebel CRS Quote

You can hit a 90 rated player before he turns 21. Quote
