Last night went a bit better for me.  Just using the serie A side and armed with some squad fitness cards, I got 3 wins in a row and moved onto record of 7-5.   Happy with that hoping for gold 2 again this weekend just need to keep this kinda form. 

Starting to love verratti in midfield, Think he's better than the IF Casemiro actually makes as many tackles or more, nice passing and mobility.  Got a goal or 2 last night with him too.  Beat a stacked team with about 4 legends in it 6-2 last night, that felt good.

For a new side, I'm leaning for now towards a 433 with motm higuain.  His price fluctuates massively though right now. So maybe post weekend I'll get him on board.  Surely he won't get an IF for 2 goals against chievo when he has a motm card out?

Nice one Eric. Hope you get gold 2

You not fancy waiting on Higgy? His TOTS won't be far off. Not one for me though. Just couldn't get his 93 to be a real threat. Ended up using it in the Torres SBC

Playing in the league continues to be pleasurable. With the vast majority of sweat in the weekend league the games are actually nice to play and any defeats feel deserved. Enjoying the main and fitness teams atm with the great FB Villa as the sub in both. Him and Torres I'd imagine would be lethal with a messi in behind as CAM.

Looking at the qualifying requirements for the first tourney of next week, does that mean only 3 IF's are allowed in the squad? Wonder if any Legends or SBC versions count towards that too?

Did the mm SBC and finished off the European tour one. Some decent reward packs this week but sadly sod all in them. Becoming the norm now

Thanks onto 8-6 now so still on track.  Tough team in last match and I despite playing really well 2 really clinical finishes from motm son.  Managed to equalise with 5 mins left which was deserved then pressing for winner I just got dc'd luckily it didn't count against me, just a void match, but still a little annoying.

I could hold off probably, I'll see how price goes, buy at right time and you could make 100k minus tax potentially but that may change once wl concludes.  I was going to say it's still a month till Toty but it's actually not that long now you mention it.  I suppose if i can stay in WL getting gold most weeks the coins earned from that help offset trade losses.  Still don't want to squander them though so will keep in mind.

10-8.

Really struggling to.motivate myself to play it. Won five out of six penalty shoot outs so far, and had some ridiculous luck with the normal comical goals I concede strangely being scored by me for once! Could be so much different, but I'll take 10-8! Not working tomorrow so should be ok to get enough games in.

Up to 14-10 so far today. Been playing against the worst quality opponents possible. Park the bus, only control Kante whilst defending and if he does manage to get the ball, just spams it forward to a pace front three and one two up the pitch. Absolutely no build up play what so ever!

So, another new glitch has been discovered! Apparently (and it works) if the opponent pauses before kickoff to most likely change to 41212(2) and sub on Ronaldo at striker, you can just click forfeit and the game doesn't count. As long as the game hasn't kicked off. So now they pass back to a CB and do it!

Also, the code pro's and top 100 tryhards use to avoid each other is having two very similar kits and quickly flashing them on the kit select team. Found that out today and would explain the pounding I took on Saturday when some guy flashed two red kits at me.

Got to Gold 3, was absolutely horrendous though. Got to 16-12 and had had enough of the absolute crap I was having to face. It has got so bad now. Absolute lowest of the low for anti football crap. Just sit there and smash the ball forward to three speedsters. And I've now got to the stage where I'm just taking corners short and walking them out for a goal kick. It's almost 50-50 that they get a break and score a counter. Also, with the cushion I had of having twelve games remaining to get two wins, I just quit out against any idiots. Ended up taking 8 games and finished 18-18. Saved a lot of joyless nonsense at least!

Hey guys.  Also made it to 18 wins with 3 games left, went 2-0 down in the next game and just chucked it as I had enough.

Was hoping to get to Gold 2 and should really have managed it, no complaints about my team, but the servers were terrible again last night, some severe button delay, fast forward lag kept affecting me at the most inopportune moments of a game, whilst defending an attack or trying to equalise.  There was more than one occasion where it cost me to concede and also gilt edged chances to score.  Really was crap last night.   Had a few games where there was a continuous lag in the gameplay too, almost stop start, but more just a consistent and intermittent lag throughout the match.  A couple of games this only came on in the second half but made it nearly unplayable and yet I saw no disruption to my opponents fluency of play.

It got to the stage yesterday that against these counter attack, park the bus cowards that just spam balls forward to three pacey forwards that stay forward on the halfway line, that if I got a corner against them, I would take it short and walk it out for a goal kick! Lost count of the amount I conceded from my own corner kicks this weekend. Barely scored from any corners so why give them a three on two break away?

I didn't play much this weekend - possibly 10 games. Kid wanted to play as many as possible - needs to get some game time in before regionals next week Friday. But, even he is simply struggling against pretty much what everybody else is going through - the abusing of the game by specific reta@rds. When he does play against someone of "reasonable quality or better", it's more enjoyable and he wins most of them.

He stopped when he got the 18. I played a few more for Gold 2 & left it there with a few games left. CBA!

I think since the restriction on only winning once, there is a far larger amount of tw@ts in the WL. I can see it in the GT's. Prior to this, there were possibly the same batch of 20, even 30 people he would come up against, week-in, week-out. Now, maybe 5, max 10. And they are all massive try hards.

Even in qualifying tournament last night, QF stage - guy goes up a goal and starts time wasting ... 30th min. I don't know ... love the game of football and love UT. But the quality of opposition is horrible (not good players - just tw@ts).

Will have to see how this weekend fairs as I'm back in it. 1st attempt saw me through with the only 'difficult' game in the final in which I scraped through 1-0. Proper backs to the wall stuff.

Used a Bundesliga midfield and defence with a Portuguese front 3, subbed off for Suarez, Ronaldo and Torres. Star man was 75 Keita. This has made me want his TOTS. I'd imagine that his current 87 must be some card.

No interest in the new league SBC's here. Pretty much set for the remainder of fut

It is a good move, but FFS why don't they mention this PRIOR to the freakin' month they release it in! Kid (and I guess me to an extent) didn't play 30+ games on the main acc.

Ah EA ... you do my head in!
