    I'm up to 4 wins, but again - another mental hare em' scare em' 6-5 loss followed. It's fucking bonkers. Quite fun with the play styles, but completely unbalanced and unsettling.

    3-2 down in my second game and I'm playing some cunt who keeps pausing it.

    This is amazing.

    EDIT: That's 3 pauses in a row now. One straight after the other. There must be a limit, surely?

    EDIT 2: 4-2 loss, to go 0-2. One more and I'm getting relegated.

    Memphis Depay is just not up to this.

    I've just given up for tonight. I've added 14 losses to my record. I've quit a game before the end 5 times. I only recall doing that twice before this Fifa.

    Fucking raging at my ineptitude.

    Drew the 3rd game having hit the post twice in the dying seconds to snatch the win, but a rage quit at 3-0 up after 54 minutes sees my fist win, with Dani Alves getting the required holiday camp league goal.

    Gives me a two (ish) game relegation cushion again as well.

    Finished the night at 2-2-3, but still in Division 5.

    Seriously, EA are fucking morons for making you do an objective in a competitive mode with squad pre-requisites that if you don't happen to meet put you on the backfoot massively before you've even started. It's only going to get harder as teams get better as well.

    I seriously dislike the 'score with X and win in rivals' challenges. The divisions are super competitive enough due to the way they work without you having to gimp your team to get these.
    Luckily I give zero shits about Gamerio so I haven't been keeping up with this. I might be able to cobble together enough for Kurzawa, but if not, I'll take Lerma.

    I now have regret on not doing Firmino, but I still insist the upgrade was minimal for an extra 120k on his normal card. Hopefully patience is rewarded by there being a striker or at least RW Son today. He'd be a lovely 86 version too. Though knowing EA it will be a LW card and 86 to add to the mountain of EPL LW available along with a minimal upgrade and also cost 300k.

    Something big would be nice. I need to cash in on my Kroos’ 60k is the target.

    Hard to say for definite as well due to doing that shitty objective, but not sure Matthaus is worth the 800k tied up in him.

    I said it a while ago, we need a casual game mode online. From what ive read, they used to have silver and gold cups with strict restrctions in relation to players. That sounds super fun.

    Seasons used to be casual and to an extent to were the daily knockout tournaments. The exception with the latter being when they implemented a reward player or something for winning the tournament.

    The problem you have now is there's no mode to test stuff out or have a fun team. I don't do many skills, but I could build a team of 5* skill guys to give it a whirl. Nah m8, have a team full of meta and icons as your opponent and he still only wants to finesse from the edge of the area.

    There's also no real way to earn coins between Thursdays. You get your lump sum and them off you go again for a week.

    You have online singles match but the connections with the game mode are awful and people just leave the game when they see your team or once they are losing 1-0. All the team and players should be hidden like it is in rivals and fut champs.

    Was struggling with my custom tactics as my team were all over the place defensively. Even against the AI on legendary who weren't bugging me at all on previous tactics so I changed again.

    An easy 5-0 win and could have been more.

    Switching Fabinho from the default cover wing (why is that the default, it's shit?) to cover middle was a huge help. Just didn't allow much room in the middle for long shots and it was actually stopping my full backs from pretending to be centre backs. Hopefully it also transitions across nicely in rivals.

    Sadly, I don't think I'll bother though as I like Alexis too much.

    Saracchi - Looked at the face stats and thought meh, then looked at the card a bit more and thought he's got some nice stats in the right areas. Then saw the requirements. An 84 rated squad with an IF? Are you shitting me?

    Son - 200k+ for what are mostly uplifts of 1's and 2's. No thanks.

    Rigoni - His stats are too bang average in all areas other than pace so it's pointless. 65k as well. Fucking hell.

    Rui Costa - For circa 700k and the packs back I might do him.

    I fully expected him to be an ST card. Very frustrating because I would have been all over it.

    LM/LW/LF BPL options are mad.

    I'm now 13 games into this absolute bollocks, I still haven't done it and I haven't enjoyed a single match of the 13 I've played.

    They break down as 3 wins with Ligue 1 players scoring, 2 wins without Ligue 1 players scoring (both rage quits that more than likely would have seen me do it had they not fucked the games off when I was 2-0 up), 3 draws and 5 losses.

    This is the worst thing in the game for me at the moment, by a country mile.

    Well, shit. I knew they'd make him a LW and I'm still disappointed. That leaves me with a decision to make. I was most likely going to do Sterling, but I don't think I can justify 2 untradeable cards at LW from the same league.

    That Rui Costa is a big tempter. 700k looks like with some decent packs in return. Actually looks a quality CAM with good size and strength and most importantly stamina. I'm not sure if I'm just drawn in because he's an Icon or not though.

    If you are only doing one of them it has to be Son imo.

    Tempted by Costa. I never used him last year but he was a mainstay of so many teams and I can do him out of the club easily enough.

    Chalked up another win on the Road to Martinez getting in half-cut. The second opponent of the night however turned up not with an MLS squad, but a FUT Champs mega team, but titled 'Free Win MLS'. Having given away free wins a few times myself, I took it in good faith. The guy scored 3 on me with Neymar. First time I've sent a message to an opponent in a while... There's no need or advantage to turning up in Singles with that team aside from being a trolling prick.aå

    He's basically Jordi Alba though.

    In a league with a chronic shortage of viable LB's.

    Finished the challenge so now selling up the expensive MLS players I bought in. Looks like a loss of around 10k will be the price of Martinez, that and my sanity.

    Good deal.

    Would definitely advise doing any challenges like this again during prime WL hours. I did it all Saturday/Sunday and really didn't have any problems. He's an absolutely mental card though.

    Trying to play about getting Son into the team. His nationality is making anything like that difficult though.

    The whole point of promos is too give us players in postions that lack depth or qualily. usually most leagues suffer from poor LB, RB and CDM with good work rates. I like that LB card, but it is too expensive for what it is.

    Won my first two single matches last night in the hunt for Martinez. Both opponents instantly paused and did all 3 subs, but neither of them brought on world-beaters so I decided to stick with my starting XI and see how I went.

    First game, 2-0 up in 20 mins and he rage quit. Second match, a 3-2 win in extra time, with a 117th minute Giovinco free kick sealing it.

    Whilst the Futswap objective sounds awful, as it demands it to be done in Rivals, I've certainly changed my tune with regards to the MLS objective. By playing with this squad, I'm using players I would never dream of, and discovering that some of them actually aren't bad at all to use - Andre Horta being a prime example.

    I've done it. 18 long games.

    EDIT: The Futswap one with 4 Ligue 1 scoring wins.

    I don't have any good attacking Ligue 1 players, so it was a monstrous ballache. Martinez in comparison was a breeze.

    Who is the best prem league target man. Ive used Gold Kane and he was OK and now im using IF Lukakku and he plays a lot better but both are not strong enough. Even If i hold L2 and the defender is behind me, they can get the ball via a tackle.

    I've decided against Son. 210k for another LW when there are plenty of tradeable options and also Sterling, just seems a bad idea. Had you been able to use FUT Champs reds in these I'd be all in for it, but they're pretty much useless without that. I'd take him as super sub, but I now have Martinez, red 87 Mahrez, Mane and Hazard on my bench which really takes care of the attacking needs. I'll revisit Son if he gets a TOTW or striker item.

    Rui Costa looks very interesting, but my want to get Hazard into the team would put pay to him. His price point is still very appealing though and 350k worth of packs back could well earn you a chunk of that back. What it has done is it has sent the price of the useless/unwanted Icons tumbling. You'd be lucky to get any Icon for 750k last week and now they are down around 600k.
    It also gives hope of giving these out at a more reasonable price point. Yes you may not have 700k on you to do it in one, but with 30 days to do it, you can slowly tick off the mini SBCs through the month.

    Just did Son. Ultimately I couldn't resist. Cost about 210k, of which 160k I already had in the club.

    Bruma 82 CAM, Khedira 87 and Lacazette 86

    Prime Keane! Same requirements as Rui Costa. Christ that’s a tempter.

    Totw is ok. Griezmann or Fabinho would have a shot at getting in a side, Jesus too (let's not even acknowledge Messi)

    Might do Khedira... Maybe.

    Nice to see Keane released and cheap-ish as well (factoring in the packs coming back). I'll keep holding out though - plenty of time to pick a starter Icon but Keane looks the most usable of those released not requiring an Icon up to now.

    I did the Keane loan and can rock this for the purchase of Pogba and Lloris.

    Prime Keane is very tempting, is there a quick way of working out the average coins expected back from the packs without any big pulls?

    I am gutted I didn't do the Zaha FUTMas card. His standard card is still the second best BPL striker I have used (Aubameyang being the best).

    I'd tear any of your arms off for that Fabinho red. Also if any of you get Messi or Griezmann red, fuck you in advance

    I was not expecting another Icon today. Good to see EA have listened a little. It's almost exactly what I've been looking for too. I've been using Torreira as my other CDM but it just doesn't quite work with him and Kante together. I need someone with a little physical presence in there. Torreira is very good for his price, but lack of height and muscle is his let down.

    Rijkaard looks perfect for what I want, but I don't think we'll get him yet. For once I might do a loan card and see how it goes.
