How so? He's kinda sluggish and clumbsy on the ball for me.

He's not the speediest e.g. in chasing a through ball, but he's strong on the ball and hard to out muscle. Plus he is practically invincible in the air and in the box. Gomez = goals. There are few guarantees in FIFA, but this is one of them!

Gomez is so crap, also have huntelaar and lewandoski,both mediocre. Also have farfan, schurrle and gotze,again they all seem meh.

You're doing it wrong

Haven't used Huntelaar yet, but Lewandowski, Farfan, Schurrle, Gotze... They're all very reliably good...

I've read a few posts about the impending "market crash" - my question is, will most/all players plummet in price or will it only be the premium ones? (IF etc)

I've got Rooney, Hazard, Bale and Toure as my most expensive players - is it worth cashing in on these now do we think??

Thanks...

If you plan to keep them long term, keep them imo, if it were me I'd sell on Hazard & Rooney, Bale maybe, Toure, prob keep.

Juan Mata has a rocket for a left foot! Something strange is happening to this game. I've managed to win 6 in a row. Even the ones i dominate and normally lose

Loving my cheap EPL team.

Ibra, so nice on the ball with his strength, skills and shooting but he's just so damn slow Having him in the team just makes the through ball worthless as he can't get onto anything and if he does he's instantly caught. Just not worth the dollar. If he was 85 pace or thereabouts he'd be unbelievable.

Bought for 430k, sold for 449k, not that bad I guess.

My thoughts exactly bu tI bought just before the Sweden England game :cool:

Balotelli Torres

Nasri Mata

Tiote IF Fellaini

Cole Cahill Luiz Rafael

De Gea

Eugh, built a bundesliga and its so meh.

They're all pretty similar in the way you're supposed to utlisie them, are you sure you're not just picking the wrong types of players for your playstyle? Maybe you should try Esswein instead.

Andybtsn · 27 Dec 2012 at 20:08

4222? I like that formation but for some reason it leaves me so open at the back even with very defensive cdm's, struggle to defend with it.

I'm finding it works really well with IF Fellaini. He's a beast. I play defense so the defence doesn't get left exposed and the counters i make with this team are really good. Just won Div 1. Yay

sorry I haven't joined you last few invites you've made on COD mate I've been in the middle of some tactical games with my wife which she was enjoying too much to quit! (I don't want her to lose interest!)

Humm possibly. I was used to really sharp turning strikers in my Serie a team , doesn't really work with these

Treating myself to a bigger better TV for the living room next week guys. Currently rocking a 32" so gonna add 10" to that. I only play Fifa so any advice on what would be best?

Jimbeam3678 · 27 Dec 2012 at 22:08

So while i'm waiting for TOTY anyone fancy suggesting an Italian league team a 523 formation purely to wind Stew up and for the giggles!

Andybtsn · 27 Dec 2012 at 22:09

I think I'm going to build a 4231 seria A/Italian team

Have a post in the audio visual forums saying your uses & budget tbh matey, although take some advice with a pinch of geeky salt, there be some very biased elitists over that side of the river!

Most well known brands will be fine, just get something with a decent refresh rate.

Jimbeam3678 · 27 Dec 2012 at 22:22

Thoughts? Giovinco over Robhino ?

Whats Samual like at CB? to slow?

GreenMint · 27 Dec 2012 at 22:25

I'd go IF Lamela RF, could go Gamberini at CCB, pacey enough and low/high so barely moves away.

2 h/h CM's are gonna be knackered by HT, I'd throw a De Rossi/Cambiasso/Zanetti in there, or even Pirlo to supply the front 3
