Bugger three at the back 5-2-1-2 is the way forward!

For me, 5-2-1-2 on attacking is exactly the same as 3-5-2 on defensive. The only difference is that you have defenders instead of wingers, doing the same job.

As I find wingers do the job better than wingbacks (generally), I prefer 3 at the back on defensive

My Argy team last year in 3-5-2 with Cambi and Masch at CDM was awesome, despite the CBs for Argentina being crappy.

God 4-5-1 is absolutely rage inducing. ******* hate it, no space anywhere!

GG mate, Bibotelli is an absolute gun.

 

[Bucket]

Aye indeed he is. That formation drives me nuts because there's constantly so many players at the back it's impossible to break through. It's really high pressure and I cane handle it. GG. Going to pop to the shop I think and buy some food for lunch!

This game is so ****ed up at times.

I win 9-1, passing is superb and everything.

Next game I go into, my team cant string two passes together, cant shoot and I end up getting beat 9-0.

How can a game switch so much from game to game?

It's the "in-game" chemistry. FIFA Ultimate Team (and just FIFA in general I guess) is never a level playing field, just something you've got to learn to accept.

Or people need to learn to defend

I've never conceded more than 4 I think in UT 12!

bought an IF D'Alessandro for some fun

1v1 anyone? Bird shows up in an hour which means limited FIFA time.

I know that feeling. I'm going to her-what-makes-the-sarnies' house tonight. I'll miss my xbox

 

[Stewy]

I live with mine, I never get xbox

 

[roband]

I live with mine, I never get xbox

apart from when she has that other fella over, right?

Right then, **** it, I'm selling my La Liga squad and I don't care if I make a loss. I want either Italians or Ligue 1.

 

[Bucket]

Italians!

 

[K1LLSW1TCH]

Italians!

Mmm, I was thinking 4-3-3 with a midfield of IF Marchisio, IF Pirlo, IF Nocerino. But then on the other hand if I go Ligue 1 I can have IF Remy up front.

 

[.Sean]

Just lost on pens to a 4 and a half star silver team.... looooooooool

 

[Robert1986]

Have all next week off work. My goal is to get onto the match earnings leaderboard on the ps3. Currently #39 in top squad leaderboard.

Current earnings: 276,667k
Need to get around 400k by next week. :/

I have fc11stars on my friends list. He never stops playing. His squad is pretty average too.

Challenge accepted.

Italians, but with Cisse and Remy upfront? Cisse's Serie A link would maintain some chemistry at least, and create some with Remy!

It's a good idea but I don't like Cisse, he has crap hair. I think I might just go full out Ligue 1. But the Italian IF's look so good...

 

[roband]

Well if you go Italian and Balzaretti in 442 is any good to you, let me kno... ah, PS3, nw.

 

[K1LLSW1TCH]

Thanks for the offer.

How come you all rate Balzaretti anyways? I remember in FIFA 11 everyone creamed over him but I always found De Ceglie to be the best left back.
