Nice pull!

I balked at the 86 rating at first but unless ya get Maddison/Doherty it’s probably fair

With only one sbc per league I guess it’s this and bundes for me

The game is poo poo because it’s fundamentally reliant on automated processes that neither player controls

Also due to rubber banding that ea implements but that’s just par for the course for them

You’re a better man than me. Granted I’m only gold 2 level but squad building with all the reward coins and sbcs this year was super fun, if not for that I would have angrily checked out much sooner

Since FIFA 19 is almost over, I've pretty much steadfastly refused to do flick up crosses or first time finesses or whatever but since we only have like a month left I"m going full out FIFA 19 bullshit and seeing if I can win with The Meta.

I had a thought which was like, normally when you cross you always have to cross to the back post because people generally run a lone striker where the only person behind him is some tiny winger so unless you have like ronaldo or bale on the wing they usually can't do a lot with it, so what if I just go with two strikers and make them both huge?

So anyway I'm trying a 4-4-2 now with TOTS Benzema and Gignac up front. So far I've only tried squad battles with it, but I was completely destroying the computer on legendary, winning 10-0 and poo poo.

So this is what I'm gonna run with for a couple weeks and see if I can just go with the fuckin cheesy meta and win by spamming crosses and poo poo instead of just banging it off the post on every 1on1



I even added anchor to Dembele to improve his jumping and heading and poo poo, haha

Gonna see how it goes and make some people rage hopefully

shut up blegum posted:

Found it. For some reason it won't accept the WTF initials anymore though.

Decided to build a Serie A team. So far I got Lukaku jr, Caceres, some Brazilian CB and a striker named Kevin Lasagna. Rest of my team is still silver, bronze untradeable crap the game gave me. I'll just buy cheap players and upgrade that squad over time. Hope to end up with Lukaku and Mertens I guess?

And another thing, am I blind, or did they remove the coin bonuses you could buy from the catalogue? Those helped immensely in the first games but it looks like they're gone now...

yeah they're gone, but there are a few objective coin boosts iirc

serie a is good for cheap acceptable players, look to pick up bastos, correa, leiva, etc. Quagliarella is a steal and with sniper or finisher has high 90s shooting

How do icon swaps work, exactly? Should I save my tokens if I don’t like these options?
