RandomGuy. Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Hows everyone lining up in Ultimate Team?

Victor Valdes Joao Pereira - Rio Ferdinand - Younes Kaboul - Fabio Coentrao Cheik Tiote - Darren Fletcher Kevin Mirallas - Frank Lampard - Erik Lamela Edin Dzeko Currently working up the leagues with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrunitedfw Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Got a pretty big bundesliga squad but struggling to pick my starting 11 and subs because some of my fringe players have impressed. My squad is currently: GK: Neaur, Ter Stegan CB: Hummels,Dante,Santana,Subotic,Sokaratis,Anderson,Abraham,Niederimir(sp) CDM:Martinez,Bender(sven),Gustavo,Rode.Neustadter CM: Big Bastian, Gundogan,Gentner LM: Reus, Ella, Barnetta RM:Robben,Muller,Shaqiri,Vierinha CAM: Gotze, Thiago, Mithkiryan(sp), Hunt,Kiyotake ST:Lewandowski,Aubamayang, Mandzukic,Ollic,Diouf,Ramos,Szalai, Ideally I'd like to trim the squad when I decide who is and is not good enough but some of the on paper fringe players are really impressing.

stumigoo Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Yas! Me and my (now best ever in the world) girlfriend exchanged gifts today because she is away tomorrow. I had made a casual remark months ago about the PS4 and Fifa. Well f**k me sideways she's only gone and done it! I'm 30 but have spent most of the morning acting like a twelve year old phoning my pals going 'guess what I got for Christmas?!?!'. Can't wait to get involved in a bit of Ultimate Team and online matches. The only downside is I am going to my parents for three days now and I will be in a right huff because my playstation will be in my house! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Just beat a guy 10-0. He had an awful squad apart from McGeady and Robbie Keane, so spent the first half hour giving it to McDeady and trying to skin my entire team. I was about 4 or 5 up by half an hour and then he just started trying to timewaste. I got bored by the 70th minute at 6-0 so left the game planning to have something to eat. He proceeded to keep pausing every time in an attempt to piss me off, before trying to taunt me by standing on the line with his keeper, which led to two own goals aswell I then got a message saying "Suck my dick n****r" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 This is the kind of shit I'm looking forward to. Its incredible how easy it is to wind folk up within a game. I think my dinked penalty was the real back breaker though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Prince Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Was one win away from getting promoted to division 2 in UT seasons, got my Xbox one, transferred my GT across and the fucking thing put me back to 0 points. Raging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Started to build a pretty decent FUT team, going along the lines of firstly a German/Bundesliga team before looking at just Bundesliga. I've been playing a 4231 with Kevin Grosskreutz, Aaron Hunt and Stefan Aigner behind Kevin Volland with reasonable success. My first big purchase however was Huntelaar who I thought would have been the perfect target man for my system. He isn't. He is fucking toilet. No pace, weak as anything and can't hold the ball up. He is getting binned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cityfan Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I spent around 100 odd games experimenting with loads of teams, players and formations before I settled on rotating between these two... Seria A 4-4-2 (2) GK: Marchetti RB: Konko CB: Chielinni CB: Barzagli LB: Radu RM: Candreva CDM: Vidal CDM: De Rossi LM: Asamoah ST: Ibarbo ST: Vucinic BPL 4-4-2 (2) GK: Cech RB: Sagna CB: IF Sakho CB: IF Reid LB: Jose Enrique RM: Mirallas CDM: Yaya Toure CDM: Cabaye LM: Schurrle ST: Eto'o ST: Jovetic Jovetic and Vucinic are the stars of each team. I've tried all the expensive strikers like Aguero, Lewandowski, Neymar, Van Persie, Falcao, etc in various different teams and formations and none of them come close to these two.

stumigoo Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Get Gomez, he is the best value striker in fifa, he has 203 goals for me from 304 games. Just bought him there, and Diego to play behind him in 'the hole'. Currently my first pick team is - GK - Leno RB - Jung LB - Schafer CB - Subotic CB - Badstuber CDM - Kehl CDM - Javier Martinez LM - Elia CAM - Diego RM - Herrmann ST - Gomez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Couple of questions. 1. How important is your manager? Should I get one that is linked chemistry wise to my team (A Bundesliga manager for a mainly Bundesliga team) 2. Ways of making cops, should I focus on buying individual players or are packs the way forward? I've been focusing on individuals so far, haven't bought a single pack apart from the ones I have received as rewards or gifts. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been focusing on individuals so far, haven't bought a single pack apart from the ones I have received as rewards or gifts. Cheers! I'm new to FIFA but from what I've read, the manager gives a chemistry boost to any players who are the same nationality as him or are from the same league as him. In the player's stats there will be a green head-shaped icon if the bonus has been applied, likewise the loyalty bonus (for playing ten games) shows as a green shield. The general consensus across the internet seems to be that buying packs is a waste of coins and it's better to focus on players that you want rather than play the pack lottery. Hopefully the more experienced players offer opinions because I'm keen to hear them but so far I've mostly avoided packs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, I have been focusing on individual players because I know what I need. I've seen some packs and just thought 'why do I need a new ball?', but I suppose there is a chance you might get someone great, or someone with great resell value.

Pub Scarecrow Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 After typing my previous post, I thought I'd throw caution to the wind and buy a gold pack. It was full of garbage and selling on won't come close to covering the cost of the pack. I won't be doing that again in hurry (partly because I have hardly any FUT coins left ).

Cityfan Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Would recommend Marchiso as one of the centre mids, the guy's strength and work rate are brilliant, also like Guarin and Montilivo in that area. Full backs I would say they are the two best, not that there is any choice really, though I do use Cristico but you need actual Italian's around him. Up front, Gomez is the best I think, and Pandev was great for me in the past. Did try Marchisio for a few games but plumped for Vidal in the end as he popped up in forward positions more often. He's also got better defensive stats, making him more of an all rounder. Vidal also has H/H Workrates, so would be suicide for me to stick Marchisio alongside him, I like to have my other CDM M/H for defensive cover. Might try Gomez one day if I get fed up but I'm really happy with that team for the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
