FIFA 14

Tim (zippy saturn) :p If I see you online when I get home fancy a game before the Madrid match ? I really would like to play a few more people on here (I'm on Xbox).
 
Yip. Just wondering what 1.4mill would put on the pitch.

A nice 433 hybrid with Ribery, Neymar & TOTY Alves :D

Im pretty much on when im off work and when mrs isn't about.

Off today and tomorrow, mrs aint in at moment so i am on now.

Ahh ok, well i'm usually on later at night, you around post 11ish?

Cool cool, I should be online by about 5:30/6:00 UK time.

Cool, i'll try to be there :D
 
Ahhh the web app is a blessing and a curse. I love being able to sort all my squads out whilst working *cough*, but hate it because I have to wait until this evening to try it out. My boss wouldn't notice a ps4, right?!
 
Looking at the EA forums it seems that 41212 is massively popular there. People spending millions on squads and asking even more pointless questions than I do.

You guys would love it over there. :D
 
I do love playing against 41212 players who just 1-2 spam their whole team. So easy to counter. Watch them move pretty much every player on a run try and lob through ball, I've got "fairly" good at defending that sort of play. Once I have the ball boom it up pitch and well my gosh they have no midfield and/or hardly any defense because they are all inside my keepers box ! So easy to counter it's unreal. I can see why people use it because if you suck at defending that 1-2 spam through ball is going to murder most people.
 
I've been trying to find some new formations to play, but none of them are working. I'm just no good with any formations that are not a 433 variant, 41212, or 442. Been having a bit more luck with a 4231 lately, but it's hit n miss.

guy's who do that suck at the game.

you should never be doing the 1-2 run with a defender or a defensive midfield player
 
They're my favoured formations too, Neil. As much as 41212 is a bit newby you can have some nice build up with the right players without a 1-2 :p.

4222/4231 I don't like on PS4 but were OK on PS3.
 
lol Sonny I remember ages ago when I was streaming matches and you said you would destroy me with your 1-2 spam.

he's talking about doing it with defenders, i was talking about doing it with my attacking players

CAM, ST, etc.

2 completely different things, one is smart the other is just stupid as your pulling defensive players out of position up into positions where they are terrible at creating or scoring chances compared to the other players in the team and leaving huge gaps at the back.


if i was going to 1-2 i would make sure i did it with an ST or CAM basically, I wouldn't be using Kompany to charge up the pitch.
 
Yeah, I've been avoiding 433 lately as there are loads of central players I want to use. I think 4222 is extremely work rate dependent, I feel it really needs a high attacking CDM and medium or high defensive striker to drop back into that central role, otherwise it just feels like I'm forced into cross spamming which isn't gonna happen.

Finally decided to try serie A so using a 4231 with some of the beastly IF's like Pogba and Vidal, so far so good. Will be going back to my 433 roots this weekend when I pick up IF Sturridge and Hendo for my Liverpool team :D
