I am probably wrong but I thought it reflected the actual FIFPro team of the year?
Aye it is.
Its also voted for by managers / players - so it tends to be a bit of a popularity contest. People who have been in the headlines for things like big transfers or successes do well, reputation can sometimes be more important than form. David Luiz in Fifa 15 is a great example of this.
Personally I think KDB should be in there ahead of Vidal, but given his big money move to Bayern and the fact he won the Copa America with Chile I think he'll get in.
Speaking of De Bruyne , i did a draft a day or two ago and got the best De Bruyne card....he is amazing !! All over the pitch winning tackles , making good passes and scored a 30 yard screamer !
If i don't manage a TOTY Ron or Messi im gonna go back to bpl and go for a team built around him.

Is doing the draft worth the 15k coins for the players you get for winning the games? or were you doing it just to try some of the players out?

In the draft (offline) you win packs, so it is luck of the draw what you get.
If you were going to use the 15k to open a pack, then I would use it to play draft as the prizes for winning 4 matches ranges from 55k to 135k value.

Havent actually played FUT for about a month after gold ran out. Have just been trading using the web app, and coupled with the crash, I'm now about 30k away from being able to buy Messi! 
This is a big thing for me
However, Messi, or Owen and Sol Campbell?

Messi every time. He is a game changer , the other two are not.
I don't do the draft very often and i always seem to struggle at draft as people take it very seriously , i want fun when i play whereas your average "winner" on draft seems to play park the bus and just pass the ball back and forth all match and scrape a 1-0 win , effective but not fun.
I do a draft on the odd occasion just for a play with some players more than anything, i am not a good enough player to use it for guaranteed profit. Having said that , i have not opened my packs from my last 4 drafts as they are being saved for TOTY which i assume starts around the 11th give or take.
Bale is good , especially when gets running at full speed..along with his decent strength he can be quite hard to stop but he is always going to cut in and shoot.
I rather Robben in 16 as well as 15 to be honest. I guess it depends on playstyle , i like his agility and acceleration as it is much better than bales. Don't get me wrong , Bale is good but he is a bit stiff compared to Robben and i find him a one trick pony..try to power through in an almost straight line then get ball on left foot and shoot from the edge.
Robben can dribble , can pass , can go inside , can go round the outside , can finish with finnesse and can utterly destroy a couple of tight defenders in a tight space.
Last Fifa no matter what squad i had there was always Robben on the bench as i liked him that much.
They are both different but if i could only have one of them in a team i would take Robben personally.

Finally put together my two squads for the year and have about 830k coins left over.

And my Premier League squad....

Couldn't be happier although Ronaldo doesn't seem to be as good as his stats suggest.

Nice teams , really like them both. How is that Suarez ? I was gonna buy him before but went for IF Benzema instead who i didn't get on with.
How is the IF Willian , that is another play i fancy although i wouldn't be surprised if there is a SIF Willian released tonight !

I haven't played for nearly a week now, I'm addicted to FM16 after buying it over Christmas. Haven't played anything on the Xbox at all since I bought it.
Hi,
My name is Ryan and I'm here because I am addicted to FIFA. I am pleased to say i have been clean for 2 weeks now. My life has got better, my wallet has been fuller and I am still using the same controller for over 2 weeks straight now.
I still having trouble sleeping, keep thinking of that 90th minute. Sure it will go away though, time heals and all that.

Holy christ.
Do you mind me asking if that obtained through either insane trading or throwing money at Fifa?
Edit: Sod it, decided to buy back into my team. Market may go lower, but I'll take a 15% saving. Should leave me with 1.1ish million to spend after TOTY drops, plus whatever I get for the player I replace... and however much I end up dropping on Fifa points.

Willian is awesome, absolute beast, highly recommended. I never had that much sucess with Hero Aguero, but the game has changed a lot since then and pace matters more now, I think he'd be a good shout. No experience with Pedro, but other than Stirling or Sanchez I can't think of any other decent options. I suppose there is always Bolaise if you like to skill a bit.
I dont rate Fabregas, I'd swap him for somebody more defensively minded, Ramires is insanely good for the money. Bastian has always done the job for me, good shout.
Defensively the only issue I can see is Kompany, in my opinion he is too ponderous and has the turning circle of a particularly large oil tanker. Cahill or Kos would be other options worth considering.
