Hopefully it kills the horrendous play style you encounter half way through the weekend league and onwards with the passes just smashed forward up the middle with no thought at all. However going on EAs history in this, they completely break something else entirely!

Well, that does appear to be a step in the right direction. But, am cynical like you mate ... something else will break or there'll be a new flaw to expose.

Didn't start too early last night, but still had a run of 7 games - 4-3 record. Positive for once! ;D. Decided that I'll use the Serie A team, rather than swapping out. Better with consistency ... unfortunate for using unique teams.

Last game I was 0-2 down within 20 min and managed to fight back and score in the 90th min (what else) for a 4-3 win. Only afterwards did I see his team name - SNATCHNGRAB (or something of the sort) ... he certainly snatched a loss in the final throws of the game.

Still, it's a 352 team which is pretty much different to the bog-standard 4321 with a pause at the start. So boring - as usual.

Had 2 games this morning before people arriving. First one - 5-1 victory ... flawless connection. 2nd - lose 1-2 in an absolute abysmally bad one - guessing this is what you experienced TWS. I was 'quite mad' and just slid at one point - multiple times. Laughed out when I saw the CB slide 1-2 seconds after I had pushed the button.

Moving on ...

I didn't even bother again this evening. Finish up 5-6 this afternoon and that was after coming from 2-0 down to win the last two I played. It's just horrendous trying to battle through lag and non sensical player animations and horrible touches and seeming random massively underhit passes. Didn't even bother again this evening. Played Fortnite instead and thoroughly enjoyed myself, picking up two squad victories. Will try again tomorrow but not looking forward to it.

Seems a lot of people are getting lag and delay today for whatever reason, but I think this one takes the award!

Went from 5-6 to 5-10, including some absolutely top draw crap going on. I picked up an icon 86 Schmeichel yesterday. He won me my first game yesterday morning, but since then has let in some of the worst goals I've let in in years. Dropped him from both teams at 5-10, put in Horn and Butland (I know, I know!) and let in one goal in the next four games and am now 9-10.
Schmeichel is absolutely appalling, let's in everything. Will sell as soon as his price starts rising on the hype of the next lot of icon SBC's.

Ended up 20-20 for the second week running. Game play an absolute mess. Fun times!
Got the 17 wins I needed for Gold 2 monthly, so hopefully I keep the luck with red monthly cards from last year!

Strange WL for me this week.  Started off the usual 1 win, 1 loss routine and was 6-6.

Griezmann's time in the club ended.  Great card but either has a great game or goes invisible.  Sold everything off that I could and just stretched to get Bale as his replacement.  Good choice

Ended Saturday on 12-8.

Sunday started off a little rocky but kept it to 14-11.  Some of the best FUT I've played this year in that stretch, even in some defeats (90th min namely).  4 wins from 15 needed.  Simples right??  5 wins gives me Gold 2 monthly.  Simples... yeah right.

In the next 13 games, 3 wins, 10 losses.  In 9 of those losses I either conceded a 90th min winner or equalizer.  Some random pass selection from the AI put my opponents through on net more than 6 or 7 times.  That aside, still playing some proper decent stuff.  Pity the opponents were not doing the same and the game was 'assisting' them shall we say

So 2 games to go.  1 win needed for 18.  2 for Gold 2 monthly

Lets see what amazing things happen next

Lost the first 4-3.... in the 90th min.  Was up 3-1 in that one  :-\

Last game.  All normal service resumed.  Felt like a different game.  Everything going my way.  Crushing win 5-1 for the 18 wins.  No gold 2 monthly which was disappointing.

No doubt monthly rewards will bring IF Dost.  Only want IF Jesus, just so I can sell my NIF and generate some coins.  Club is bare ATM

Lets do it all again next week  ::)

Good job mate.

Struggled in the DKT ... right from Monday night (again, my time). Tueday night, got a EA disconnect after leading in the semi - thought I should have a chat with EA suppor but I'm not one to be wanting a freebie into the WL.

Yesterday, played a little earlier in the evening than I normally do. Same crap - even after the patch. I did feel slightly that some passing was off and could see at times. Regardless of patch, there are the obvious twats in the world - met this one in the semi:


1-0 up for the majority of the game, until he subbed on R9 and Henry. Brain-dead movement by CB's - twice - and out we go again.

For the first time ever, used up all attempts in a DKT & was thinking this could be a quiet weekend ;D.

Not to be though ... a few hours later, a quit/disconnect by my opponent at HT in the final. I was 4-3 up with the 7 goals coming in 26 min ::) :o. Defences parting like the Red Sea at times - nuts!

Won the daily tournament second go after losing in the final first go. On the second run, I switched back to 4231(2) from 352. Haven't gone off the formation, but wanted to try something out. Won 7-2, 2-2 (3-0 pens), 2-0 rq and 3-0. My experiment was pretty successful! Probably won't be playing much weekend league this weekend because of work so haven't built anything new.

Sold off some stuff yesterday afternoon. Sold 86 Schmeichel for 300k. He went down 50k when they all got dumped at 6pm. A nice little 35k profit. Happy. Sold the Gabriel Jesus I packed from last weeks rewards. Got some decent use out of him and sold for 54k. After 6pm he was at least 10k cheaper. Happy. Also sold IF Danilo Pereira for 64k (bought for 13k) and IF Brahimi for 28k (bought for 12k). Neither of them went up so was perfect time to sell and I have so many coins just waiting to be spent.

Rewards weren't great. From weeklies I got nothing good. From monthlies I got Granqvist, Felleini, Altidore and Fabra.already had the last two so I'll be able to sell at least.
