FIFA 21 Ultimate Team

Lads are any of the milestone squad builder players worth the effort at this stage?

Any hidden gems in there
(Just got the game this week)

Monaco crest on the headliners loading screen, no prizes for guessing that that’ll be a Ben yedder headliner so

The Fut Swap players, if I hang onto them I can use them when round 2 comes out to add to them or will they expire? I got caught out previously

This day last year they released the Championship SBC with my favourite player of the year Sean Maguire as the reward, today they released the Championship SBC but this time there's no player reward and all the packs on offer combined give you 11 gold cards.

No harm doing them for the fodder. The Van Bergen lad seems to be great, I haven’t played with him yet though.




It’s either him or Gelson Martins. I’d prefer Gelson tbh.

I’m half way through the eredivise one now, be handy for me with a starter squad anyway.


Oh it’s def Ben yedder, ea knows what sells packs and if I remember correctly from last year I think the criteria for getting a headliner was that you had to have had an in form or motm card which martins doesn’t

New Year means time for some changes.

Today we say goodbye to Both Baby Pele and the excellent RTTF Sissoko.

Didn't really want to replace Sissoko but given the card doesn't get its next upgrade till February now seems like the right time and I have felt over the last 2 weeks that his sluggishness is causing me trouble in certain situations against good quality players.

POTM Fati will come into the side at least temporarily allowing Felix to go to 10 chem. (Waiting to see what the potential Ben Yedder looks like tonight)

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, EA Sports proudly bring to you the newest FIFA FUT Champs Squad Member and club record signing........Mid Gullit

The more that I thought about the different options for attackers, the differences between the expensive attackers past a certain point seems to be extremely minimal (For the way I use them at least). MID R9 being the possible exception but he's still multiple millions out of reach.

I have always wanted to play with his card so can't wait to try him out later tonight and see if he is as OP as people suggest. Based on my experiences of playing against him I have extremely high hopes.

Give the ball to your keeper, then play a short pass in the box to nobody and put your controller down, your keeper will run to get his own pass and then just stand over the ball while no one pressures him.

Cheers. Haven't done any Icons Swaps as have lost interest over the past few weeks but gonna hop on later and get a couple done in Squad Battles.

It'll help for packs for TOTY.

If you've got a second controller, you can do them on Couch Play friendlies. Pick an awful team for the second player, and foul outside the box.

Then move the keeper out of the way, and bang in an easy free. On the Xbox, it was R3 and X or B to move the keeper.

Had two to get and finally got this done this morning using this method so thanks for the tip

The AI is so brutally stupid.

Every. Single. Game. They hit it wide and just go for crosses. It’s literally all the AI was doing on World Class.

I’m playing the games cause I’ve the time for a bit, but it’s painfully poor. Everything is just crosses.

Bang in 6 and let it play itself out. In 60 mins, the AI only ever scored 3 goals against me - this was for the lower rated squads, I’m sure the higher rated ones would smack me.
