    Someone recommended Tevez a few pages back. Built a relatively cheap enough team round him thats all Argentinians, bar Hart in goal.
    Hart
    Zabaleta - Rojo - Otamendi - Insua
    Pastore - Banega
    Pereyra
    IF Lamela
    Lavezzi
    Tevez

    4 games played, three wins, one (narrow) loss. While Tevez hasn't scored, his pressing is unreal; the four players at the front of the attack close down defenders so, so quickly. Finding people are having to hoof the ball forward to get it up the field, which suits grand cause I can usually mop it up and start attacking. A tonne of fun. Thanks :D

    Whats IF Lamela like?

    I was considering building a team like this, but I would want more defensive players at CM than Pastore and Banega.

    Gaitan is worth considering also. He's a fantastic LW.

    +1 for Gaitan. The ball just seems to stick to his foot.

    Have scored some absolute worldies with him.

    His dribbling is absolutely unbelievable. I've been trying to work out what it is about him. Others also have 86 dribbling & similar traits, but just don't feel as responsive as he is.

    For the first 10 games he have the loyalty bonus, so he didn't have his shooting boost. He couldn't beat any keeper at all, but after the 10th game, he suddenly started scoring everything.

    Do we expect Black Friday deals and another market crash?

    Considering holding off buying Tevez until then. I only have 80K coins, so won't be able to put much of a team around him if I buy him today. Another 5K off his price on Friday would be nice.

    Going on last year, the crash really happened a few hours before the black friday packs. People panic and start selling and undercutting etc

    Can't remember how big the crash was though, if you look at futbin prices have already tumbled this week so it mightn't be much of a crash at all. There's also the small chance of an increase in prices, lots of people are expecting a crash friday so will have sold up and will want to buy back their top players

    It could go either way I think

    What's the deal with Black Friday packs?

    Discounted prices or ..?

    I didn't play until Christmas last year so didn't see any of it.

    IF Lamela is grand, though can't say I've noticed anything special. He's scored me 3 freekicks in the last five games though, and he's got the speed and skill to do really well. Also find he's pretty solid defensively as well; him and Zab are closing down that side of things constantly.

    As for Gaitan, I'm enjoying Lavezzi at the moment. Most of my play is coming through him, bombing down the wing, and working his way into the box for the cut back. Might grab Gaitan as a sub though.

    You're right about the defensive element of midfield, but my playstyle has always been suicidal anyway, so I don't mind. I'm outscoring people at the moment, which is fun :P Might in time see about dropping the midfield back, using two CDMs, and seeing how Mascherano and Garay or Otamendi do as CDMs :P

    YouTubers making FIFA videos about selling up now creates a bigger crash :D

    I'm afraid there's no discounted prices, never is with EA

    Going on other years, there will be 25k and 35k packs available all weekend, and lightning rounds of 50k and 100k packs.

    Nothing too special really

    Ah. Standard EA so.

    It'll flood the market with new cards, forcing the price of everything down even further. Great for buying, dire for selling!

    Made myself a Seria A team, after finishing it, Figured Id pay at least 5 times as much maybe more if it was a Premier league team of similar quality.

    Buffon, Maicon, Vidic, De Vrj, Asanldi, De Rossi, Pjanic, Strootman, Anderson, Candreva, Dzeko
    With quality subs aswell cost me about 30K maybe a little less tbh

    What's Dzeko like? Been using Mandzukic and Dybala in Serie A teams so far, completely forgot that's where he was!

    I like him, good in the air good finisher, but most my goals come from my wingers, hes my target man pretty much

    YEAY! Finally out of Div 5 into Div 4.

    Dropped Benega, switched to 4-4-2 and got Higuian...who got 7 goals in 3 games. Was one of my favs last year and still seems to be a beast :D

    Now to be murdered in Div 4.

    Looking at updating my Bpl and serie a teams have 175k to spend. Below are my original teams and my possible new teams any comments on these would be great. Players I'm slow to change are Herrera, wljnaldum, Albiol and Allen but their replacements stats seem better and eriksen and nainiglon were quality in fut15 for me. Any other players ye would add to these teams or players I have added whom you didn't like


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,320 ✭✭✭v3ttel


    Griezmann and Martinez are still bloody useless for me. They have 2 goals between them in a combined 20 games. Just look at how far wide Martinez puts this with his 88 finishing and 84 volleys.



    Compare that to Dimitri Payet (78 rated) who has scored or assisted in 27 of 30 games for me. Aboubakar has 40 goals for me in as many games.

    Anyway, this is my next target squad:

    Hopefully they don't play like a bunch of knobs

    You could do with a more pacey CAM in the English Premier League team really. I'd imagine counter attack goals would be at a minimum for you?

    Bojan might be worth a look?

    Just won the Online Movember Cup, got a draft token in the premium gold reward pack - can't say I've heard 'in thread' of any tokens being packed so thought I'd share. Just when I had banished that mode to the back of my mind too. Nice move EA, nice move.

    They're very rare. I've seen streamers do 1 million coin pack openings and get none, a few times. Currently on 0 myself and I've played the draft ~40 times, I've opened a lot of packs and haven't got one

    They're worth 15k technically, so there's a reason they're so rare

    I gather that they are rare, so I posted to ensure the myth stays strong lol

    Was going to post asking if anyone had seen one. You're the first person online who I've seen get one. They really made it out that they'd be a bit more common when promoting the concept.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,538 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    I've had three, all in packs opened on a Monday that I got free from the deluxe edition. Every time I've got it I haven't played the draft in a good while.. I'm sitting on a token atm.
