Damn. Dat pass accuracy How did you manage that?



I was playing possession because I got up early and because I didn't want to get spread out and let him have a cheap chipped through ball so I just kept making quick short passes around midfield.

At one point he said verbatim "You're making my head hurt by passing so much"

How do you even get TOTY cards?


They were in special packs last week. Theres massive inflation on the marketplace right now because so many people bought coins to buy packs/TOTY players that the currency is really devalued and prices have been skyrocketing. Some people that don't understand economics very well think that they're making profit because players they bought before team of the week are selling for twice as much, but they don't understand that most of the players they want to buy are also going up in price

That kid said he packed TOTY Ronaldo, so if he sold him today he would have gotten around 13-14 million coins which would be more than enough to build that squad.

Just signed Junior Malanda (81 OVR CDM from Wolfsburg - 25 years old) on a pre-contract.

Yeah, I've all but abondoned my MM with him in the team. It feels weird playing with him on the field.

ETA: today's FA cup is what always happens to me in MM. I guess EA knew that Chelsea can never beat Bradford in the FA cup.

What's wrong with Junior? I feel like I must be missing something.


On a side note, frick Manuel Neuer. Getting shot past him is next to impossible.


ETA: Wait, is that the kid that just died in the car accident?

If that game mirrors real life, simply go near post on the ground. You´re welcome.

So when I play Manager Mode I go through all 15 years and I'm in currently in year 11 and the only good players in the world that are young (Less than 26) are on my team. I have scouted EVERY possible league and there are no "First team quality" players showing up. That's absolutely ridiculous. Where's the Ibra or Ronaldo regen???

What was your club's star rating at the beginning of your career?

I did this one with City.

The only team that ever comes up are FC Dallas, but that's only because I use them as my youth team to get my youth squad players playing time early on in the career. I've already picked all the guys I sent over there from them and it's getting rather boring having every young talent.

Barca, Chelsea and Real all are still good, but it's because they have a lot of guys who are 30-35 and are still 80+ overalls.

I had a Messi regen in mine. A nineteen year old player from their academy who is a CF from Argentina and already an 81 or 82 with the "potential to be a special player" tag or whatever it is.

ETA: I inquired about purchasing him and they said they wanted 130 million

Okay, I just remembered this, I'm assuming I have the Ronaldo regen. He's a 6'3 RW from Portugal who I got when he was 19. He was a 79 overall and he's up to an 84 two years later. 99 speed and 90's acceleration and agility. He played for some random team in the Spanish second division though.

Probably the best player I've found was some CB from Derby County who was 6'9 and an 81 overall when I got him. He's up to a 90 now.

In 13, I saw Malaga get a Messi regen. He was an 92 with all the special traits a non-target forward could have...at the age of 20.

He also had like, seven names. The bio popup would have to scroll to get it to fit.

I have shuffled my squad into the ultimate team.

Suarez Lacazette
Ronaldo Bale
Pogba Isco
Alaba Kompany Hummels Zabaleta
Courtois

Seems like every game I sim is 4-0

I got the US coaching gig as well so I signed Mix, Bacon, Zelalem and Green. Mix and Bacon are on loan. Zelalem and Green play cup matches and a league game here and there.

I got this job as well and bought Bradley to return him to top form. He doesn't start, but is a often used backup. Got him back to 82 ovr and have developed some youth players to 70s.

Pro tip: JAB is a beast. I bought him my first season and now he's an 81 (beginning of fourth season). He scores often from corners too.

If and when I get a PS4 FIFA will be the first game I get. As opposed to past games (last one I had was 12) do the CPU teams actually foul and get booked in this iteration? I played about 20 seasons of 12 over a few years and in all those games had one player sent off against me. Ridiculous and always bothered me.
