Yep, Tevez & Fernandinho for sure!

Really not sure where to go with my money, if thought of perhaps a 4222 with Messi striker and Neymar behind, or just get Ibra, is he much different on next gen compared with previous, I know certain players feel a lot different.

Shame Ronaldo is just out of reach.

Zlats feels harder to get off the ball on next gen. Skilling is more effective too. He's literally ridiculous.

Not used Ronaldo for long enough but he is similarly ridiculous. How much is Ibra on XBOX? Like 1.4m on PS and no way is Ronaldo 1.2m better than Ibra.

I agree Ronaldo isn't 1.2m better than Ibra, however I do think he's the much better player. He's basically like Ibra but faster, gets into better goalscoring positions, and (for me) generally gets me more goals.

I was thinking about trying to get Ronny and Ibra in the same squad, and I agree with your comment on Matuidi. If I were to do it your way (probably not many options to do it though to be fair) I'd have to get IF Matuidi - his IF gets mainly shooting upgrades.

I know I should be Cavani just menaces at the CM role. I feel horrible when I know the guy is looking at my squad and going "WTF - Cavani?". Needs must.

Was going to try IF Matuidi but more coins than I have at the mo. I'm about 80k short.
 
Anyone got the PS4 version and want to switch to the xbox one version? I've not got the best squad but I've got a few good players but don't really have any interest in playing the xbox one version anymore and want to move over completely to the PS4.

Not sure what I'm doing with my team, my chemistry is only 88 which sucks, got some semi decent players from Barca and other teams but it's a mix of Spanish league and premier league at the moment.
 
For people complaining about matuidi you do know that he is left footed? Basically he is useless at shooting with his right foot and is mainly a cdm rather than a cam.

If you do shoot make sure it's with his left I have managed a couple with him but he's no fernandinho

I might have to bring him back in then, maybe o Thursday once his NIF is back in packs and hopefully stabilised in price a bit again!

For some reason, despite only having 75 strength, IF Benzema seems hellish to get off the ball, just holds it up so well, so so strong, I had Glen Johnson pushing him off while IF Sakho was trying to get the tuggin tackle in and nothing, just ran straight off by, was pretty insane! - BUt as he's MM that puts me right off him :(

IF James Rodruigez is doing my head in, every stat he needs is really good, great on paper, great ingame, aside from, again, MM workrates so he just loiters too far back when attacking then too far forwards when defending, really annoying :(

In other news tough Falcao is great, 6 goals & 3 assists in 4 games, works so well with Balotelli!
 
I love Benzema, both normal and IF, and I think it's because of his work rates. He's got great passing for a striker, and as I use him in a 433, he gets soooo many assists off Ronaldo goals.

Yeah I found exactly the same as you with players in question there.

IF Benzema is amazing for me. M/M paired with a H/L striker (in my case - RVP) works really well for me. Think in a 433 where your wingers cut in he could be really good as well.

IF James I found tragic - amazing stats for an RW but I just couldn't get on with him at all.

Ibra has been my favourite player so far but I do love Ronaldo as well so imagine he'll end up plundering most of my goals.
 
They've all been taught by Sonny on Playstation. Guess it hasn't infiltrated Xbox as badly yet. Or people just don't play like a **** as much.
 
I built a German silver team last night I have to say it is sooooo much fun to play. I think that mentality shift when playing with silvers helps :p You see a gold team and think meh if I lose so what. The opponent also thinks ha silver team he's going to be a roll over. Which can give you an edge.

I played against a team called SweatyBeastssss, he was in a 532 formation with all Brazilians. It was quite an expensive team with Pato and Neymar up front. First goal he scored from a header which he made me watch the whole replay. So overdrive kicked in, by half time Esswein !!!!!! had scored me 4 goals :p I made him watch each replay too. He rage quit shortly after my 5th goal :D Even shouted ****ing **** to me down his mic before he quit.

I gotta say Esswein is amazing. His shots fire like bloody rockets.

Everyone says he is godly. I never used him in 13. I had Zarate in my Serie A team so I thought that was disgusting enough.

I don't think I could live with myself using him :D. Then again, I have Cavani at CM so I'm low on "cool" points. :p
