Can be a bit fiddly getting space to do it though. Edited to say it was still working on legendary top for me. so in the opponents box do a standing fake shot? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I've always done it in my own half, usually with a full back I'd get the opponents to back off just over the halfway line into their own half then fake shot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC90 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 so in the opponents box do a standing fake shot?Yes. The strip of grass inside box, at both sides which runs from 18 yard to by line. That's where I always do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wardy Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Bronze pack OP! Both in the same pack! Ramsay from Southampton was in it as well, which insta sold for 1k. Mental. Giving WL a miss this week. Going to concentrate on icon swaps tokens and just built up coins to build up a squad for the following week WL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpaddyx Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I think a lot of people are doing Squad Battles at the moment to get the Dan James card. The points total seems well up on normal at the moment. Currently needing over 20k just for Gold 1 and its only Friday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 I hope the grind was worth it for this James card because f**k me that was tedious I've got one squad battles game left to get him. It really has been an absolute chore. I thankfully managed to fit him into a first owner and BPL squad for online icon swaps so that ticked off most the start him 15 times objective. His 82 card has impressed me so I'm expecting big things from the 86. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayos Noun Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Bottled elite 3 this weekend. Had 2 games left and should have won both and made stupid decisions and some horrendous finishing, particularly from Nedved who is now sitting on the reserves the stupid w****r. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardy Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Any tips on how to score a fucking volley and a chip for Daniel James? Can never get in any correct positions for me to perform any of these shitey shots. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The chip is a bit of a pain in the arse but I did it for both me and my son. Easiest way I found was to run almost in line with the 6 yard box then turn as the keeper head towards you and chip him. Took a couple of efforts but thats how I got it done. Edited February 9, 2020 by mrpaddyx 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had 2 volleys called for offside before finally crossing and successfully volleying it in. Ended up scoring 2 chip shots with Him just to be sure....I need a new controller... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) I've pulled the same shite TOTW card three times this week twice untradable. Gutted as the 9k coins for quickselling him again would have been handy... Edited February 10, 2020 by Dave 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpaddyx Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 I’ve been grinding through the Icon Swap online challenges the last few nights. Grind is definitely the word , I’ve drawn more matches than lost but not won many. It’s ironic as I’ve already got 12 Icon Swaps as I’m more than likely going to take Koeman, Figo or possibly Zambrotta. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin.Hood Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Icon swaps. I have zero. Is it really worth it ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who took Koeman for icon swaps and used figo in game I can say with absolute certainty that's you're best taking Zambrotta. Koeman is alright he's just not very great and base CB such as Lenglet and Varane are better. Figo is....well.... Pish quite frankly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on who you want but you can only get up to 12 swaps now and there isn't anyone must have in the lower tiers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the advice, I wasnt sure about Koeman as a pure CB, more like one who could come on as a sub and go on sub mad runs up front when he felt like it. If it was the Prime Figo I'd definately have taken him but I've have read elsewhere that he tends to drift out of games and what you say sort of confirms it.
