    I used his FUTMAS last year for hundreds of games and I loved him. Was hoping for the same again.

    I saw earlier that the cheapest Icon was now 730k on Xbox.

    They may as well not be in the game at this stage, only acting as a bumper reward if you pack one.

    First weekend well underway and I'm 7-6 so far. Really pleased with some wins, but had a 5 match losing streak last night where I was either matched up against some unreal teams, or I was not clinical enough in taking chances.

    Just had one of those wins that are so fucking satisfying. Matched up with a 5-3-2 team with POTM Aubameyang, POTM Hazard, 3 or 4 RTTF cards. Held out for 0-0 till extra time when I took the lead, but a kick off and finesse goal put me behind until Thiago equalised in the 122nd minute. Saved 3 penalties and won it in sudden death. Fucking brilliant.

    Can anyone think of someone better than Eriksen to fit in this role for no more than 100K?

    https://www.futbin.com/19/squad/2526488

    I like Eriksen but would prefer someone to be on 9/10 chemistry.

    Are you planning on starting that way?

    UCL Fekir, Verratti (I think his Scream is due a pace upgrade) could slot into the striker role of a 4-3-2-1 to allow you to start on full chem and switch in game.

    https://www.futbin.com/19/squad/2535061


    Edit: In your example wouldnt starting Eriksen at CDM (flipped with Fabinho) get them both on 10?

    Yes it does, good shout. (and yes, that is how I plan on starting).

    Is it possible to switch in game without having to pause. I have not looked into custom tactics.

    Custom tactics lets you do exactly that. Switch without pausing.

    You start the game on "balanced" and then use one of the other 4 slots to set what you actually want to play. You can set all the aggression levels, player positions etc however you want at each level and just choose what you want. So started start with Eriksen at CDM and Fabinho at CAM on balances but set "Defensive" to be what you want above + how you want to play. You would still have "V Defensive" to use when if you ever go that way and then the two more attacking ones to go "up" to.

    I did it when I wanted to test 4-2-3-1 as my new formation and had no issues. Well, except for not getting on with that formation but thats a different story!

    Yeah you really need to set up some custom tactics. The ability to move your formation about without your opponent being immediately obvious to it is essential.

    I use all 4 of my other slots in most games. The only one I really struggle with is a "shut the game down" tactic.

    That's great and opens up so many more options. I was thinking to myself earlier that I don't find many people pausing at the start of games anymore.

    I have listed my entire squad to fund the change. Just waiting for them to sell!

    The important things to do are:

    1. Make sure you have a set up that allows you to go very defensive and very offensive set up.
    2. Everyone starting on as much chemistry as possible is vital. Once you get into game Neymar will still have 10 chem at RB.
    3. Make sure when you set the formation for step 1, you change where the players are. For example there's no point in going into a 4-1-2-1-2 if Neymar gets shoved to CDM and Fabinho becomes your striker.

    Chuffed to already be 11-9 and Silver 1, with re-qualification assured for next week. To be honest I didn't expect to be over 50% win rate this weekend! What rank do the better player picks appear at?

    Silver 1 gets you access to any of the players in the picks, but you get more than one pick when you hit gold 3.

    Nice, hopefully should be able to make that tomorrow. Definitely finding it more enjoyable that pretty much any other gameplay in FUT at the moment, I really should have shelved Squad Battles long ago.

    9-1 from my first 10 games. I've used exclusively the new super team. I'm loving Mbappe, Neymar and Griezmann, but Suarez, not so much. The card seems a bit of a clunky mess and I can't wait to get Messi in there.

    The difference in passing in this team is unreal too. I've come up against a few high pressing good players in that run, but a substitution in the 65th or so minute to bring on a Mane, Mahrez or Aubameyang soon gets the better of them.

    I felt the same in my first-weekend league. Jumped straight into gold 3. Ive been gold 2-3 since week one though. You don't get better player picks with higher ranks. You just get more player picks. Gold 3 gets two players and gold 1 gets three I believe.

    Sold a few players last night so am up to 2.5m coins now.

    Think I'm going to clear the trade pile and invest big in 2 or 3 cards.

    Silver 1 is 1 pick from 3. Gold 3 is 1 pick from 3 x 2. Gold 2/1 is 1 pick from 4 x 2, Elite 3 is 1 pick from 5 x 3.

    If you're after red players, stopping at Gold 2 is best off unless you can make Elite. Though quite oddly I find Gold 3 pack rewards to be better than 2. Gold 1 is only really worth it you pull a bigger name player in the 100k packs. The consumables gained from the packs below are very valuable.

    If you're looking a high rated investment, you've got Bonucci and Muller(86) both going for 17k and have settled there for a good week or two. If you want an 87, Rakitic has held around 21k for a while.

    Would you not prefer Sterling and Mahrez switched around due to their strong foot? I used to play that formation and the wingers scored for fun, but almost every goal was a finesse shot curled in with their strong foot.

    Mahrez is a great player.

    How on Earth did I forget about Ben Yedder? @Yevrah is he as good as previous years? Suarez is going and he's coming in. That'll get Griezmann infield from the RAM spot too.

    Once you advance into the game, any chemistry on a starting player is locked. For example, Neymar starting on 10 chem but then moving to RB after the game starts will still have 10 chem.
    Neymar put in at RB will probably have 1 or 2 chemistry. Moving him to his usual LW position in game will change nothing after the game has started.

    Bringing a player off the bench will get that player around 6 chemistry(It's 6.something, I'm sure).

    I really liked him, but he was one of the players I sold last night.

    I've been using him in FIFA for two years now so fancied a bit of variety.

    Fair play. Fancy a few games after Liverpool v Everton to earn that rainbow kit?

    I decided to sell what I think has reached somewhere close to peak price, but am basically relying on the untradeables (+ a couple of others), which is fun on squad battles, but you'd seriously ruin me.

    Something like this is under 25k.

    You certainly won't get better bang for your buck than the three forwards.

    Been on the bronze packs today. Seems like a mostly useful way of building up some coin (squad fitness cards going for 1300 if you catch one).

    Actually, Gamiero's reactions and compsure make him interesting, with a Sniper very interesting indeed, but having to get all 14 for him is an absolute piss take and he won't be better than anyone who would play the game enough to get all 14 will already have.

    Looks like a good card but all 14 for an 86? Nah. Atleast Pedro was an 87.

    86 Gameiro for 14 cards? No thanks. This one screams to me that they forgot or it was done on short notice. He looks good with a sniper, but IF Ben Yedder is already better and available now.

    This isn't meant as a dig, I'm more genuinely curious than anything, but does the overall rating have more of a bearing for you than the stats?

    I mean, I have Isco and he's an 89, but pretty much dogshit.

    Nah, not at all. Its a good starting indicator but like your example isn't the be all.

    Lerma going up to 87/88 with a good chemstyle just shows he has the attributes in the right places. Then you have to look at things like WR's, height and, for me personally, agility, balance, reactions and stamina. He comes out decently, for how much he would cost, in those areas.

    Edit: And for all that, he might be dogshit in game

    He is somewhat similar to Guilavogui. Better on the ball and quicker but a little worse defensively and shorter.
