I know he's dirt cheap and over powered, and you'll have to pay a lot for a relatively small upgrade, but he's simply not good enough at this stage of the game. In the Weekend League the first thing I do when the oppositions team appears on screen is look for the weak link in defence, and I'd be targeting him all day. Yeah but as I was saying he actually felt better than my baby Nesta. He was the one making the mistakes (and still pretty slow with a shadow) but I feel I have to play him. I’ve been looking around to see if I can get a CB Who can essentially play RB, so that Ramos can move into CB. I know Walker is one but doesn’t really fit the chemistry. It’s either that or just play Ramos on 7 chemistry from the start.... I am Probably being a bit harsh, it is only my third Weekend league so always trying to improve so to get to Gold 3 2/3 times isint really that bad I suppose. I felt a few times also that I’d miss a really good chance or be gifted a chance and not take it, only for the opponent to run up the park and score. Keepers tipping shots onto the post and bar when if it was the opponent it was ending up a goal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggy Snake Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 If you're finishing Gold 3 after a couple of weekend leagues you're doing fine. As others have said, you're probably just being harsh on yourself. I personally just don't buy into the over powered players thing as much as others. I know it doesn't work for you chemistry wise, but if you compare the in game stats (with shadow) of gold Militao to 88 SBC Lopez (who isn't expensive) it's embarrassing tbh. Lopez is infinitely better in almost every aspect. I agree baby Nesta isn't brilliant though. He's a bitch to get past close up, but too easy to play around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grass Is Greener. Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 VVD is the answer to all your defensive problems. I also try not take control of my CBS until I feel I can just step out and steal the ball. Drag you CDM/CM back into shape, jockey to hold them up and steal the ball. I know it sounds simple but never come flying out with your CB and give someone an easy 1-2. I never slide tackle either. Dunno if any of that will help, I get 11-20 wins depending on the weekend but most of my problems come from finishing I feel not bad defensively. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is something that really shouldn’t be in Fifa. I generally destroy anyway who uses AI defending because the AI cannot defend against specific skill moves therefore you will always get a penalty or a goal. It’s not ideal but you fight fire with fire. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sauzee#4 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Ended up on 13 wins. I experienced a level of scripted bullshit last night I never want to experience again but the worst of it was the boy in the last five games who was deliberately slowing down his connection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not ideal but you fight fire with fire. I’m not sure what else you’re supposed to do to keep your shape apart from pull your players back manually and jockey? AI defending to me was always players running all the way back with their strikers etc. Pulling your DM back and stepping out with your CB when ready seems ok to me. Player switching is so bad as well makes defending a nightmare. My style of attacking(no skill moves) and the defending I used are probably why I’ll never hit elite but I can live with that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when beyond the cdm they will point blank refuse to control their defenders. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shtuggie Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 I've done the sudamenicara SBC twice today for a net cost of 25k. The cheapest 88 ATM is about 50k. Try the birthday bag or hang on and do another mid icon after rewards? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I’ll prob just do the Libertadores and sudamericana 3 times each to get the 6 88s. Wee bit more time to do the mid icon pack than the birthday bag. I’m reluctant to turn the actual squad though. Folk like koulibaly and Eriksen going in. Edit. Why are EA giving us premium gold packs as rewards for daily SBCs? So many people on lockdown and they give us pish like this to complete to get an 81 GK who’s a duplicate. Why does the FUT birthday bag have to be a bloody 86 rated squad? Make it 83 FFS.
