Spending that much on a RCM who is weak would be a terrible waste is probably what he is trying to say.

Neymar excels best in space so on the wings otherwise up top where his ball control and shooting are most effective.

What team you making? Fernandinho or Ramires would be my choice as a Brazilian RCM, or for La Liga I would use someone like Modric

Not sure on team yeat, just throwing around a few ideas, thinking possibly 41212(2) with Messi & Crespo backed by IF Tevez, Rui Costa LCM.

Crespo -------- Messi

------ IF Lavezzi

IF Matuidi - IF Moutinho

------- Pogba ---------


generic Serie A back 5 obviously, unsure on Moutinho and Lavezzi's chemistry but team has more balance, or swap Pogba with Sissokho for French/BPL back four and GK.

Argentina is just so hard to hybrid with, they only have offensive players that are good enough.
 
First match with new team, won 3-0. I rather like these guys :D Balo scored 2 in literally 2 touches and Tevez scored a cool longshot.

He left early so I sent him a message saying "lol bad loser" he responded with "lol u made me break my controller"

Next gen plays a lot differently imo, the keepers are a lot harder to beat, through balls, crosses and long shots galore, as they are what are most effective at creating chances.

Players also play differently too between generations also imo, slower players who I would never of used on PS3 do well on PS4.

--------- Jovetic

Nasri - Fernandinho - Ramires

-- Garcia -- Gustavo

Enrique - Ramos - IF Miranda - Mariano

------------ Courtouis

Now I can hybrid this more but unsure of which one to go for

---------- Mandzukic

Gotze - Boateng - Gundogan

Martinez ------- Gustavo

or

---------- Costa

Isco --- Casemiro - Ramires

Busquets/Alonso ------ Gustavo


The Bundesliga one will mean needing to save up 100K and I don't like the look of Casemiro so I'm reluctant to switch especially as i'll lose Jovetic who is averaging 1.5 goals per game, Ramires is also my highest assister with an average of roughly 1 assist per game so reluctant to try the bundesliga one as well.

So i'm favouring the Bundesliga hybrid but it will take me time to save up to make a decision.

second team is

----------- Vucinic

Guarin - Marchisio - Di Natale

----- Vidal --- De Rossi

Radu - Chiellini - SIF Benetia - Konko

---------- Handanovic


anyone got any ideas how you could improve that on a budget? I have about 25k spare atm, I was thinking possibly Gomez or Balotelli for Vucinic but dunno if they are better than Vucinic on next gen tbh.

Bored of 4222?
 
I think I've lost about 5 in a row. I've sold up.

I need to go back to basics, maybe 4222...Ibarbo just scored four past me, I hate my life.
 
Sold my IF Aguerro, dropped 100k possibly 150k after tax, I prefered his NIF card, did so much better with him and now I've got Ibra and a Series A team I felt no need for him really.

It means I've got 2.3 mil going in to TOTY territory, got a few more cards which should bring me up to 2.7, not sure if I should just spend all that money on packs when TOTY comes out or buy Ronaldo and build a team with him and Ibra in.
 
Buy Ronaldo as cheap as you can and blow the rest on packs :D

Serious mode engaged here, borrowing a 360 version of Fifa 14 to get my 20% discount, really not sure who to keep or sell, I could let Robben go, he's down about 40k since I bought him 2 weeks ago.

I played against Aguero's SIF card the other day and really struggled to contain him, he was lightning quick and seemed strong as well.

He seems to do what Ribery in '12 and Neymar in '13 do, not so much strong as just seem to bounce off people and retain the ball, trés frústrating!
 
He was good but his NIF card I just seemed to play better with. Maybe because I played as a team but with his 2nd IF card I played toilet with him.
 
thinking of building this to contain the spam crossers

Really not sure a 3 back is the best way to do that, or that it will really do that for you, personally I'd go a 4 back with 2 CDMs, so 4231, 4222 or the 433 with 2 CDMs, but your call :)

Just used Negredo for the first time tonight, match went to ET and the team was a bit tired, flipped to 41212(2) with him & Jovetic, he nabbed 3 in the first half of ET and another in the 2nd, his strength certainly seemed to do the job well!

I can't win my Div 6 games (lost 3 drew 1) but won a cup last night lol. Really loving my new team, Bala and Tevez are a great combo and Di Nat as a CAM seems to work well. Still getting used to the team but liking them.

Also in my Ibra team, I can't think of the guys name Cavolini or something the 87 rating PSG striker, he scores more goals than Ibra I'm loving him.

When do the players who got TOTY get announced?
 
I'm surprisingly struggling to get on with Ibra, so much so, that I'm considering selling him today. Seems to get shrugged off the ball easily which I'm surprised at to be honest......or maybe its just me!!

Cavolini lol. Sounds like a pasta shape :p :D.

Cavani and yeah he is pretty good in a two up top formation I've heard. I use him at CM for chemistry reasons and work rate reasons and he has scored something like 30 goals from 70 games for me from CM which is pretty good.

TOTY announced on Monday.

Maybe try Ibra with someone else up top ? sometimes 1 up top with a striker is a pain regardless of who the 1 guy is.

Just a thought!

edit - damn i just read up and you have Cavolini too ;)

I must admit I struggled at first, he isn't a sprinter you have to just skill and dribble. I'm doing that more I'm beating people a lot more. I struggled at the start also because it was team Ibra, it was get the ball to him at all costs, now I'm actually playing as a team I'm doing better.

Haha, yea I wondered why I got hungry after writing that :P He is pretty fast which works well if you want to go sprinting, seems to dribble well and has a good shot on him. I really rate him though and if I build a Ibra/Ronaldo hybrid I want him in my team somewhere.

My Ibra and Ronaldo hybrids are becoming legendary on here :D. Everyone's getting one!

Can't describe how good Modric has been for me as a CM. He has been immense. Going to get Bale there as a CM eventually but Modric will be going straight back in if it doesn't work.

I sold two of my teams as just wasn't using them (bye bye Ezequiel :() and I have 200k. Should be able to get that pumped into some trades to make some coins in the next month or so.
 
The best two cards on the game :D I've been itching to get both but not been able to afford it until now.

Its so annoying..I could get them both today but I must wait damnit!

I suspect your undying love for modric will make me try him again too btw :p I'll bill you for the controllers though if it all goes pearshaped! :D
