*** The Official FIFA 13 Thread ***

UT has been working for me this morning, though every game has had huge input lag. Still, managed to win the bottom three divisions very easily, I'm imagining division 2 is where it starts to get sweaty. :p
 
Any one using a Serie A side? Which formation suits them best? Thinking of a 4231 build

Edit maybe this:

I use a 4-3-2-1 Serie A side ^. Decent side with Pirlo and Rossi holding. Maybe think about players like Pato, Lamela, Muriel, Vidal and Palacio as some possible (but cheap) fillers. Lamela is a personal fav of mine, he has a brutal left foot.
 
Yep, Palacio is the best part of 200k (Although play him LCAM, CF or ST, not RCAM as he has 3* weak foot, compared with Zarate & Miccoli having 4 [all 3 are right footers]), Balotelli under 20K, Vidal 2k, Zanetti 1-1.5k, Zarate 2k... simples!

omg, I just used Angus Higgins bracketing system :(

Had IF Lamela at Rm in 352 and was very good once he got inside the opponents third, so I can imagine he would be very effectie as a RF (Where he is meant to be!)

KPB is very good, strong, fast enough, good passing, defending, heading, he can do it all, but beware who you put him with as his H/H workrates can leave him lagging late in th match, a CM trio of Pirlo - De Rossi - Boateng could be :)

Sounds good :D

Currently I have Gustavo-Kaka-De Rossi. Don't get me wrong, Kaka has been great but I just want a little change :)

One question. Lamela's work rates M/L, will that affect anything like him getting up for counters?

Definately, I love him :)

Although he is a tad small and not massively physical, if he's getting shut down I move him out to CAM, and put Balotelli on, but thats rare.

was thinking of

IF Palacio ST
CF Balo
LCAM IF Miccoli
RCAM Di Nat

currently have IF Miccoli at ST in 352, but bored of the formation, could always use the NIF at RCAM, IF Mic seems a lot of coin for a cam!

noticed your team D 4231 with Pato at ST, how does that play compared to your serie A team?

Shouldn't be an issue, it never was with Palacio at RF, he'll always be up there due to low def workrate :)

Sounds a good idea, but, I tend to play Di Natale at CF or someone else with a high attacking workrate, that way you essentialy have someone who will push upto and sometimes beyond the striker, with Balo & Palacio both being M/L neither will push forward as fast, blessin gor curse depending on your playstyle.

My D team is pretty different at times, Oscar & Carlos Eduardo aren't as directly involved in things, but do a lot of good productive work, Gustavo seems keen to come up & help, Mikel holds fort and Diego is just brilliant! :)

cheers for the info, last question! have you tried Ibra this year?
had him last year at CF in 4231 and he was great, but he was also much cheaper! lol
 
Had him 4-5 times and rebought him last night, he's amazing at times, pace can sometimes be an issue, but you just need to get to know him this year.

Go him back in my Paris Saint Ger-Man City hybrid team, works pretty well there :D

You don't want Di Natale as a CAM in that formation... You want him as a CF or ST.
