FIFA 14

No one on the ps4 that wants to play me.

Might have to buy an xbox one. The competition has dried up on the ps4.

Where you at Rex and Kan? You guys can give me a challenge... sometimes. :p
 
With ~1.5mil in the bank I decided sod it I'm going to give Messi a go. I've never had the chance to try him out on the last couple of FUT's. I swear whoever said he was a small weakling needs to be partially shot, ok he is small.... But I've had him shrug off the likes of Ramos off the ball. His dribbling is pure god like it feels like I'm not turning a truck for once.

My team 433(3):
UP Griezmann - Messi - Di Maria
Alonso - Xavi - Khedira
Marcelo - Ramos - IF Godin - Alves
Jolly Green Giant

I decided to use these as I haven't used most of them players so thought it would be worth a go trying a new batch. UP Griezmann I am surprised with he is actually quite good nothing too special but good enough. I would prefer Neymar but can't afford the LW so I have the ST ver on the bench to sub on from time to time. Xavi I never liked the look of but man his passing is another level. I think Khedira is pretty god damm solid too I expected him to be god awful and was just going to wack Song there. But I'm glad I put Khedira there he really is good. Then there is Messi... its like he is on steroids all the time. Constantly going for the ball, constantly getting into great positions, his dribbling second to none (although granted I haven't used Ronaldo) That left foot is a bloody rocket I don't think he has missed the target once. Even his passing is just stupidly good so he can play it very well to the wingers or back to the midfield without problems. I've won 8 games on the trot with this team, maybe I am still in honeymoon mode with it but I actually do not want to play another team at the moment having so much fun with it :D

Messi is a joy to play with. He finishes everything inside and outside the box. He scores stupid goals from silly angles at times. Shame he can go missing in games sometimes if he gets crowded out.

If that becomes the case, I always go 433-5 and use him as a false 9.

Yea its really odd though because every time I have played someone with Messi in the team I never noticed him at all. But then when I think about it every time I have played against some with him its always been in a 2 up front normally with either Benzema or Neymar. I deffo think he is more suited to being a solo ST at least from my pov so far.

I've also done like you if I feel he is getting a bit too lost or not involved change form into the false 9. At that point I tend to bring on Neymar for the LW and maybe bring on Iniesta for Khedira.
 
Blah went back to 41212 for a bit and it's so clunky compared to 433-2.

Relegated again... Simply because I kept getting quitters and disconnecters.
