FIFA 18

It is boring, and massively frustrating at times, but it's the easiest way for me to get a lot of coins (75,000+ for Elite 1) and the AI seems to play a more varied style of football than I've encountered in my limited experience of the WL.

Can't stand squad battles, EA's AI is worse than the other idiots that play the game, and thats saying something!!

Guys any advice?

I like 2 up front and I want a target man and a fast player. Would you recommend d either SBC Gignac (I've done 9/18 so far) or 86 Kluivert? I'm at a point where if I sell all my excess baggage I can afford kluivert tomorrow.

I don't think I've played AI since the original Xbox! I can't stand it, the minute Xbox Live came about only ever touched MP.

Meh my transfer market on the web app is locked??? Says play more games

Is it because I’ve switched from Xbox to PS4 this year?

Bought Mertens to try out as a supersub, but really, 65k? :eek:

Mbappe worth trying? Thinking him up top with Benzema.

Gignac will be awful, definitely go for Kluivert although that seems a massive disparity in cost between the two?

Didn't like Mbappe the first time I tried him but in a settled team he's been fantastic. Very quick, great finishing on either foot and 1-2s really well.

From 12-6 to 21-19. What on Earth was going wrong I don't know but at times this game is infuriating.

I've played a good 200 games with Mbappe and it's hard to fault him. He's very fast, decently strong, but critically he has one of the best finesse shots on the game. You can whip it into the top corner from the edge of the box so easily.

Also just started trying out SIF Icardi, shooting on him is bloody immense

Okay thanks, what makes you say Le big Mac will be awful?

Big cost difference yes but can't think of anyone else to throw in.

Tried Lukaku, lacazette, mbappe, higain etc just can't find that special someone.

Tried Tinder?

I got SBC cavanni, can't say he's setting the world on fire. fitted him in a team by using 433 and having depay at lw and lucas at rw they then link into strootman and allan . I got the uraquyan cm from sampdoria to link to cavani.

My prem team I'm happy with still, I think tolissio is one of the best players on the game so managed to get him into my prem team linking with martial, bakayoko and koschelny. I have rousillion or someone like that at LB he's really good. Got callum Wilson up top and hes surprisingly good.

SBC Gignac > OTW Mbappe

There, I said it.

The Running Man · 4 Dec 2017 at 13:28

Bankrupted myself to buy kluivert!

Goberpiles316 · 4 Dec 2017 at 13:45

Opened my squad battle packs this morning and my free pack, 3 contained utter crap but the 4th pulled rated 87 Eriksen that's my second big pull after getting De Gea early on.

rickjames · 4 Dec 2017 at 13:45

I wish I had the balls to spend the amount of coins on players like some of you do, I felt sicking spending 300k or so on players for Rui Costa. Dybala at the same price has proved to be worth it though, 100%

So you've invested in one player when 90% of your squad requires improvement. I'd seriously reconsider what you've just done.
