Something strange happened tonight... been playing with Stekelenberg for ages now, so bought Buffon to try out.
As soon as I put him into the team, everyone else started playing terribly!! I don't wan't to use the H word again but why would this happen?
After 5 games I put Stek in again and it was like the outfield players had had a few cans of red bull each again!
Welcome to FUT
I have a 700k team and a 30k one, both same formation and both EPL. Guess which performs and feels the best??
I'm told it's in my head though

right peed off tonight
10 games 8 90th minute goals all against me ffs
those that think this game is not scripted are either mentally unsafe or are on ea sports payroll
just try to explain these then.
one game im winning 3-2 with 5 mins left
he gets the ball and shoots it bounces of the post onto my keeper who punches it out onto the back of ogbonnas head and into mu own net ffs .THEN IN THE WOEFUL 90TH MINUTE he shoots with his cm from about 40 yards out and the ball rebounds off myplayer to his man who then falls over with none off my players around and the ref gives a pen.
oh and you think it cant get much worse than that then how about this pile of dog turd.
1-1 i need to win to stay in the prem 90th minute i play ball through to striker. he brings his keeper out ball goes by his keeper and slowly rolls to the goal im past his keeper by now and its just the goal,the ball and me running to it there is no way his players or keeper can catch me.
keeper---------------------me--------ball------------------goal
then what happens my striker pulls up and holds his legs hes done injured and his keeper just runs by him and collects the ball and im relegated
this damn game is the biggest con since simon cowell makes sure rylan wins xfactor but wants the public to think they have voted for him to stay .
disclaimer i dont watch xfactor im just going by what my wife says

If your player has pullled up that normally means your players fitness is really low. What level do you play them until you use your other team?
I started a game the other night and one of the opposition players pulled up about 10 minutes in. Turns out his whole team was in the same state.
Happy times.

Depends if you assume cause a player costs more it makes them better for your team.
For example- Ribery upwards of 400k but Lavezzi is just as good for 20k.
Just occasionally I do like UT! 
Was searching via the web app for Suarez at ST - tried limiting the BIN price at 40,000 and got nothing, 41,000 - nothing, 42,000 - nothing......then tried 43,000...... and one popped up with a BIN of 30,000 with 59 minutes and 58 seconds left on the auction!
Result!
Here is my current BPL/BBVA hybrid - any suggestions for (sensible, ie. not super expensive) alternatives?
ps. anyone else think that Navas is actually a vampire???

Sold everything, again. Lost a boat load.
Built this 4321:
Giovinco - Jovetic - Palacio
Pirlo - De-Rossi - Sneijder
De-Ceglie - Gamberini - Ogbonna - Caceres
Marchetti
First game, 8-1, sneijder got 4. AMAZEBALLS.
Second game, against a player I would have said wasn't as good as the guy I just beat moments earlier, half time and he is 2-0 up and my players seemingly just cant hold the ball. Everyone getting brushed off it.
I dont believe in scripting, momentum etc. But that has me perplexed. Frustrating.
All in all, its a great side. Sneijder makes some awesome runs.

That's pretty much what I figured - I've got Walcott but he didn't seem to improve things chem-wise!
Ideally I wanted to find a way to shoe-horn Balotelli in at ST instead of Torres but I can't afford Silva @ CAM so I figured the next best bet is the Spanish connection up front!
Who are the best Spanish league CB's without getting into the realms of 70k+??
Good thinking Batman!
Shame really though, Fabregas is my highest rated player - seems a shame not to have him in my best team!Change him to CDM instead of Ramires
Might swap out Arteta - can't drop Ramires, his pace and workrate just in front of the back 3 is amazing!

I don't rate Arteta at all at CDM, get a dedicated CDM he will do much better, Arteta is always looking to go forward.
