Spent 800k on the 88 IF Suarez but have found him pretty useless (well I've not got on with him). The player which has scored me most of my goals is RVP so I'm thinking about selling IF Suarez and getting the IF RVP.

Check RVPs stats in game before you sell him. Then cross check those stats against the in form on futhead. You'd be surprised. There isn't much difference at all. Save the coins for Ibra or someone else in my opinion.

How do you sort out the awful first touch in pro clubs that your player has? Like, u get the ball and the control is diabolical, it always feels slow mo and sloppy and making space for yourself feels impossible? my player is decent rated but maybe it needs to be a 90 or something?

Won a final last night in the cup against a Serie A team. Was a nice team I was worried about what passing moves he'd get going as had all the best players.

5 minutes in he's bombing down they wing with Candreva to launch it in. OK I say, no problem. But it's all he's doing all game and he gets two crosses to land eventually and takes it to 2-2 and ET.

In ET he brings on Ronaldo, Benzema and Neymar. What does he do? Pegs it down the left wing with Benzema and launches it in with his left foot. To Neymar. Then he runs down the right wing with Ronaldo to launch it in. To Neymar. Eventually I regained my head and ignored what he was doing and little Luka Modric scores a 118th minute winner. I did message him to work out what is going through his head playing like that but no response.

It's because the passing stats aren't good on the other players so this causes you to take some bad touches on passes which look OK. If you get a pass from another pro and it's a good pass if should be your Ball Control stat coming into play. Check yours out under the Ball Skills attributes page.

Fairly happy with my team now. Any suggestions for improvements?[/QUOTE]

As good as Borja Valero is... you've got two CDMs with high attacking work rate. This will leave you exposed on occasion.

I would get De Rossi in instead of Borja.

I can't stand people who do that. All that money, and they might as well play with Jarvis and Mirallas.

On the One is there a way I can delete the FIFA game without downloading again and reinstalling it all from scratch? Obviously not deleting my FUT neither!

Exactly. What a waste - which was what I said on my message.

Don't get me wrong, I have a Ronaldo and Ibra and I'm partial to launching it in if all angles are otherwise covered and I see a run I want to hit in the middle but it was a constant barrage of R2 to the byline and then cross. It was mind-boggling. And then when he started doing it with Benzema and Ronaldo too...

Head. Blown.

I beat a star studded squad like this in the final last night. He was playing 4-3-3 with the following team:

Ronaldo - Ibra - Lucas
Modric -Isco - Cavani

He played it exactly how you mentioned, running scoop turn and peg down the wing to cross for Ibra. The game ended 3-1 to me in full time and in all honesty his game became too predictable. Guardardo, Ibarbo and Vucinic finished him off with ease with some neat passing around in his penalty area.

I often find expensive teams are really easy to play against and very rarely do you come up against good players.

I have this habit of time wasting passing the ball around the back if my opponent is either constantly spamming lob balls or trys to abuse the kick off through ball bug. One game last night was all fine up to full time (1-1), first thing he did in extra time was to try the kick off through ball. Needless to say when i scored he tried exactly the same thing so i spent the last 10 minutes of extra time passing the ball around the back

If my opponent was actually a good player i would go full on attack regardless of the time and score but for bug abusers its complete different

I had a game last night that I actually enjoyed, which was pretty shocking for Div 3. Both of us passed and moved. He ended up winning 3-0, but it was a great game. He sent me a message afterwards saying good game - why can't more people do that?! Both had passing accuracy of over 80% - most people I play struggle to hit 60%!

I should play you! My pass accuracy is always 80% or over

Haha, up for that - are you on PS3?

Slightly concerned that us PS3ers are a dying breed on OcUK - everyone's far too well off and has upgraded to next gen already!

happy_2008 · 30 Dec 2013 at 13:34

On PS4

Although i still have my PS3 its all packed up

4T5 · 30 Dec 2013 at 14:15

Is there a way of getting a screenshot of your team on PS3 or do I have to get my mobile out ?

Me and a couple of mates were controller passing last night and this sounds like you played my team though I don't know which one of us was actually playing

. Although I have Alonso and not Isco.

Scratching my fuzzy memory from last night

I can remember a losing final but it was 3-2 and it was a 93rd minute penalty for contact that was non-existent so perhaps it wasn't you?

What's your club name - I'll browse my history? I can only really remember one game properly from last night and that was the last one I described earlier and when I saw his play style it sobered me up and made me determined to win

.

happy_2008 · 30 Dec 2013 at 14:58

Omg actually it might have been you I played. If I recall it wasn't Vucinic who scored but Hamsik 92 minute penalty for a foul on him by thiago silva game ended 3-2 to me. I think he did have alonso and not isco. If it was you it's such a small world lol.

My team name was mafia user ezza2203

cHk4 · 30 Dec 2013 at 15:11

I got a rage message(voice) from what sounded like a 10 year old on xmas day, he went 1-0 up and was being super cocky. I went in to try hard mode and beat him 6-1, he left on the 89th min. To be fair he was lucky it wasn't more, I had 27 shots, 22 on target and I should have scored all of them (if I could actually shoot.)

Is this on the One? How do you find recent players?

On the PS4 there is a section under friends for "Player met recently"

Yeah it was me. No idea which one of us was playing for this game but if it was cross spamming it wasn't me!

I was using that team last night as I thought it might give us more chance to win while we were a little worse for wear lol.

I think I can pick out the games I played from my history haha.
