Not as effective this year seems a lot slower. It's been a staple of my attacking game since 16 and this one seems to get read a lot easier

Better example of it working here

How does Allan play for you on 8 chem? Also, have you tried Strootman linked in anywhere?

Good question he does the job quietly and how compared to a ten I don't know. I just bought strootman now to try so I can rest him or another midfielder if I want to rotate.

Overall klasson seems to get the most assists despite being an ungainly player and followed by promes. Whereas depay gets more goals than those two as he's fearsome running through on the counter attack.

Anyone on xbox want a few games tonight? Could do with some tips as really struggling with the game, 0-2-4 in division 6 atm

. Not sure if it's me just not being very good

I have the same front 3 as you ready to put into the squad but I've become rather attached to Allan/Valero/Mario.

3 at the back is tragic this year, thought it’d be solid with good L/H defenders, Chiellini, Bonucci and Barzagli but you just get destroyed down the wings with the amount of 4321 BPL teams you face in WL

I do quite well with 352 but I've only used it on seasons. You need your wingers to come back really, I use Guerrero (Dortmund) and Mahrez as my wingers and they do their fair share of helping.

I was gonna try 3-5-2. Really that bad down wings? You'd think with appropriate winger workrates it would be decent.

Could just be my play style mate and I haven’t adjusted, I don’t find any of the Calcio A players that good tbh, thought the likes of Marchisio would be awesome but he feels bang average, I just seem to have far more success with BPL teams and then later in the year when I have the coins I usually go La Liga with Ronaldo.

1 win 4 draws 5 loses can't even get out of division 10 for **** sakes

Any suggestions for a circa 100k squad on PS4? Ideally players who can pass a bit as well as just pace

Robbo · 14 Oct 2017 at 21:13

I've just tweaked my formation/team a bit, so currently using:

Seems to have a good balance. Hero Sigurdsson seems decent value when compared to other similar cards. Sane makes a good super sub

Scoring for fun with this squad, CDMs can be improved but the Kane SBC put me back a bit. Gueye is a really underrated card though, Bakayoko is nearly 3x the price for no reason.

It's good for sure but not perfect. Some games Locadia owns all, others he feels l3ss bible than he needs to be. Throw a +3 card on him and he's amazing.

Just spent about 20k and come up with this.

Got a new special.play striker ready!

How’s Kane, and what did he cost in total roughly? I’m half tempted to get him but it’ll be a big chunk of my coins gone...

Boom!

Kane isn’t worth the risk imo, he’ll get inform after inform this year. I’m bias though as I’m absolutely terrible with him when I’ve had him in draft, doesn’t fit how I play the game at all and it’s hard to break away from defenders with him in the sweatfest park the bus online games.

Every goal I’ve conceded this weekend league has been from a counter attack or from kick off, not seen one piece of actual skilled play, everyone is sat with their 4 defenders on their 18 yard box and using the meta of not touching them and just using an OP midfielder to do all the work and hope the CPU sorts your defence out, it’s actually pretty funny when you think how bad it is and why I’m still playing it.

Jimbeam3678 · 14 Oct 2017 at 23:10

Speaking from past regrets I really wouldn't sink your coins into SBC, even more so for a card like Kanes.

Gueye I loved in 17 and equally in 18. I have him in midfield with Bakayoko, both compliment each other so well.

Oh and I just scored this in my last game with him, scorcher.

Is anyone here actually playing WL? If so how are you doing and how are you finding it?
