Since switching from that exact system. It feels much more competative. I thought i would be exposed out wide but as long as the full back are set to stay back, you are nice.

Bought Mkhitaryan and I decided to put the full backs on stay back (had them on default) and it's brilliant now.
3 games won 2-1, lost 2-0 and won 2-0 against 82+ sides (the last 2 were 86 and 87), feels so much better defensively and despite the low scores I'm creating plenty of opportunities on the break but I've shanked a lot/got superkeepered.
I'm also surprised at Fernandinho, I thought he might not be great in the formation but he's thriving.
I'm tempted by the 4-1-2-1-2 narrow, if for no other reason than I want to play Rui Costa at CAM. He's wasted in central midfield.
Having a good CAM with good long shooting and a strong CDM makes that formation great. Legendary difficulty does not produce many wtf moments any more.
Sold 200k worth of POTM cards overnight. Lovren and IF Lang investments paying off nicely. Also managed to buy an IF gnabry last night for 31k. Haven't tested him yet but statistically, he gives g.jesus competition.
Decided to play my first online game this year.

Only division 10 in online seasons but I don't think I've ever hit 7 past some online gimp before and I didn't really try in the second half.
I just landed Ben Yedder. Bluey card. :cool:
EDIT: And Laudrop.
First time I won all 4 matches on legendary. Took me all the way to gold 1. Do it again and I'm sure to reach elite 3.
Got Dani Alves TOTGS from my FUT Champs rewards. Otherwise fairly average.
Its early. But I'm into elite one. I suspect ill get booted out by 10pm today but still :cool:
Salah has been awarded POTM and the SBC around it isn't as profitable as I would have hoped. Only roma and fiorentina are teams required along with sceeam, TOTW, OTW and Hero cards
I've stuck Kessie OTW up as I'll be able to make a slight profit on someone who wont get an IF and Walker who I can make a 50k profit on or so.
Edit: Walker didn't sell and I'd only make like 10-20k on him as Futbin was acting up.
Got Salah. He looks mighty with a marksman and cost about 70k plus maybe 200k worth of players at current values, which is ludicrously cheap considering the card stats.
The standing tackle button has a fucking power bar. Ive only just figured this out :face:
Immediately its improved my tackling.
Reading up on this FUTMAS event. I'm invested and involved heavy. Hopefully, some mid range full backs are available as you only have about 5 in the game that are highly rated. Any type on bundesliga special card, I'm on it.
2* WF is why he's affordable.
I've got a very basic La Liga squad going. I have £400K free. Which league/players do you suggest?
Havent touched la liga but ben yedder is a beast. Confirmed by man on here and online. He is in everyone's team
First ones have dropped
86 Azpilicueta
82 LM Gnabry
83 Antonio
And a weekly objective to earn Andy (Christmas) Carroll.
I did the gnabry card. Nothing really selling from my pile in relation to this. Rather save until more wanted players arrive.
I was hoping the requirements for the Dave card would be a bit nicer.
83s and 84s are going for peanuts right now. Only had 18k coins to invest
Mata was up 50% earlier. Hopefully better SBCs will see that fly up more
Pisczek and Alaba are decent possibilities for tomorrow.
Edit: decent list of potential players here:

Woke up and saw there was a daily Futmas challenge for a mega pack. Not to difficult to finish. Got Nacho Monreal. What a joke of a pack.
Most embarrising lost ever, didn't for the entire match get the chance to even attempt a shot on goal. It was absolutely impossible to get in range.
Walker sold for 190k.
I need about 30k more to afford TOTGS Mbappe.

:eyemouth:
Still going to use 4-1-2-1-2 narrow with Blanc at CDM and Mbappe at CAM.
I just played two sets of Squad Battles while watching the football and I played same team twice :cab:
84 Beradi
86 Koulibaly
85 Lemar
Don't fancy any of those unfortunately, nor the ones fro yesterday.

If that image is anything to go by and true then this FUTMAN is wack. Cant post image from my phone.
It was all over online. It cant be true surely. Nothing in there looks fire. I was hoping someone like reus would get one as he is made of glass and is always injured.
Why can't they upgrade interesting cards like Inaki Williams?
That was apparently doing the rounds before todays were released so it seems legit
I’ll be going big on that +2 Herrera if it’s true. Just switched him out for IF Saul but with a boosted card at the right price I’d definitely switch back or find another slot for him as he’s still a go-to sub. Doubt it is a genuine graphic though given that Gnabri was an LM not a St.
Edit - just spotted that Musa. Ffs that will be horrific.
Lost eight games in a row on SB
On legenday? I faced the worst team I have played in all SB earlier but I was still too scared to bump it to Ultimate. Won 9-0 :face:
Yeah on legendary. No idea what is going on.
Lost 10 in a row now. The AI have got some next level strength out of nowhere. I dont want to put the controller settings on legacy to come out of this dip. Im tried changing formation and tactics, but it makes zero difference. May have to go back down to world class.
Up to 230k now in coins. Never had so much coins but I don't know who to buy.
Cost of everyhing is down so you can probabaly get several elite level players for that much.
I can’t recommend Pogba highly enough. He’s scoring more than my strikers. Though I do feel this 4321 rather encourages that.
1000 points off from elite 2. Never been this high up before.
Won my last full set 8-1 (the young french forward got 6), 2-1, 6-1 and 7-1.
Think I am getting the hang of legendary. The 2-1 was one of these where the opposition are amazing with shit chem so my team is shit. Ronaldo, Auba and Mbappe being the LW, ST and RW.
Sat 4k short of Elite 1 but I have 4 games left. Going to see if it looks doable before pushing on.
Haha I just came to post the same.
