Pato from my experience.

Di Natale has better shooting, dribbling and passing but worse heading.

Managed to get him for 40.5k coins about 30 minutes ago, just need to buy a 4-3-1-2 formation card. I'll probably sell him on if he doesn't play well.

Currently playing with;

--- Cavani --- Di Natale ---
-------- Zarate -----------
- Hamsik - Vidal - XXX ----

Reckon it's worth a punt getting Lavezzi and changing him to a CF to replace Zarate?
 
I find people do the same move repeatedly - drag out one of my defenders the other one doesn't react to follow hernandez run - he goes clean through from 50 yards.

do this to me 6 times each game. best way to defend is to select a midfielder hold down x and follow the ball. the instant you select a defender he can be frozen out as he stops. bringing a cb to challenge attacker doesn't work.
 
Well with everyone's help and advice I've put together a team I'm happy with
http://www.ea.com/uk/football/fifa-ultimate-team/show-off#eXfL3LpYbbBi6
Reason I'm happy with it is...

I played against a guy who had a team with 100 Chem, Messi the lot - litterally all the best players, if he got the ball and took a shot he scored basically, the guy could score from anywhere. But for some reason the defending just cliqued for me and he only managed to score 4 goals, one was due to me rolling to ball out to his feet! It went to penalties and I won!

Again though I should have scored so many more goals, I just can't put the ball away when it's 1v1, I'm great at breaking and busting through defence but then when I'm against the keeper I can't do anything.

Going back to the chem thing, since getting my chem up from like 50, I've noticed players actually get in position for some nice moves/through balls etc.

Just not sure about eto, I like him but I can't get max chem with him.... But he is the reason I score most goals, good pace.

One guy i played had a team of 82-85 average apart from one player with 78. Yet his team was rated as 80/80/80 even though pretty much everyone was higher.with 2 totw players thrown in to his squad i felt i did well to lose 3-1 or so with my 37 chemistry
 
I'll be happy when I can actually play in a tournament. Not risking yet more contracts etc lost because the game bugs out, kicks me out of UT...

However, at least you can play for fun in 'Challenge' mode.

Are you online at all today? I wouldn't mind playing against you at some point. :)

Need a quality LB for my Bundas team and no idea who to go for.

Bastians is a very good left back and so is Schmelzer.

Definitely, Lavezzi is by far (imho of course) the best Serie A CF.
 
Any tips on shooting?

Some people seem to be able to curve the ball in from anywhere, how do I do that?
1v1 with a keeper what do I do?
Thanks

Finesse. Check what button it is mapped to. It's not as effective as it was on 11 but still ideal in a 1on1 situation, always try to be on angle that enables you to curl it past the keeper.
