Idk if playing defense is hard, or if I'm just God awful at strafing and what not all of a sudden.


It's definitely harder this year. I usually play pretty conservatively on defense and focus on cutting off passing lanes, but after playing against someone else I've had to completely change how I play. You have to attack on defense more so than in past games imo. Also, defenders feel like they don't "lock on" as much as they have in past games. I think I'm squared up on someone and all of a sudden they slip by me.

Hockey games are fun, I just can never really get into them because I don't follow the NHL.

I basically just play FIFA and 2K, and I suck at 2K.

Timing tackles is super important now. Days of spamming standing tackle are over since if you whiff, your man will glide past you. Slide tackle is fairly worthless now too.

Ive been real lucky doing the sbcs, have 90k and a nice little mls/serieA team with if Martinez and if Asad. Lots of totw1 going for discard, got a couple Fabianski's waiting for those high potm requirements.

Sold Jordi Alba and Hugo Lloris for 40k and 50k, and got 10k from some discard gold player someone accidentally bought at full bin.

Havent spent a dime on fifa points, usually ive already droped like 50 bucks by now. Prices prob drop a lot come monday.

Ya, im done tossing them my cash. But its easier now since theres so many ways to earn coins and prizes.

I was pretty hooked on it a couple years ago. Wasted so much on that lottery high of opening packs.

Mendy is easily the most likeable player on City

Hard to root against him

After some online pvp grinding for 10 chem, some cracks are def starting to show. Every game is 9-10 goals combined. Pretty ridiculous, fun, but ridiculous.

Could be because everyone has shite teams and once better cbs and gks start appearing itll tighten up a bit, but shots right outside the box are basically gimmes with decent stats.

Defending online is practically impossible.

Ya, EA went alittle overboard by nerfing GK AI and making the CBs impossible to move. One or the other would have prob been enough.

I can't even imagine defending online lol. In my manager mode I'm letting in at least 1-2 goals a game because I suck arse at defending haha.

I haven't seen that option yet. Only new thing I've noticed in transfers is a buy-out.

ETA: lol so PSG have spent big in the first window in my manager mode. They've added Eriksen for 99 mil and Laporte for 70 mil. Antonio Valencia was a random transfer and went to Barca.
