FIFA 14

Sanctimonious *****, done in the 90th minute of 1 of our 4 friendlies tonight.

I must have missed the vote that made you the paragon of fifa virtue.

Easy tiger.

Kick off glitching in a friendly game against people here is pretty low irrespective of what you think of my aloof position.

I have to make do with randoms sending cryhard messages on why I'm lucky and their Ibarbo was broken because lob spam wasn't working :(

I love it when TOTY Serge has one of those games where he's brick wall. Can tell they're getting more and more annoyed as illustrated by their passes going faster and faster :D.

So is crossing to score but people still do it? Its easy to proclaim the moral high ground on games you don't see, and as you didn't, your comments are out of context.

So I stand by my original position.

No - one is a glitch with a load of YouTube tutorials and one is a play style choice.

I don't cross spam but if the opportunity presents itself... It's up to you how you want to play the game. I used to glitch back at people who did it to me but I stopped that after about a week as I found it mind-numbing. The principle of doing it bothers me more than the outcome. Personally I find it pathetic however it's dressed up and or justified.

Doesn't sound like Kanifee was too bothered though :).
 
Anyway, here's my current favourite team to play with. I haven't heard much talk about Hulk on here this year (probably after his 60 pace episode in 13 :(?) but he's been amazing for me so far. I need to sort out the angle I come in from on the right as I think I keep over exaggerating the angle making it too obtuse / square on and the shots are sometimes a but rubbish. Whereas in a diff team with Reus at LW I don't have the same issues.

It's almost impossible to get games where people don't either disconnect glitch, kick off glitch or cross spam when I'm using that team. Team isn't very fun as a result. He's taking a rest. Team is still there though even renamed it for Tim :D. Which reminds me where's his Aguero vid? I'm hoping one of his goals was worse than my fake shot fail to cross!

I'm going to re-buy Bale for CM when I'm done messing around with some new teams I've got on the go.
 
Blasphemy. Cavani is immense there - defensively as well. You wouldn't think it but then you try it and you become surprised.

Cabaye could slot in but I really need H/H for that position. I can't handle 433 without the work rates right. It took me a long time to play OK with 433 so I don't wanna erode the balance. I have to have H/M M/H H/H. All my 433s follow that same pattern haha. OCD :(

I didn't use 433 last year. I was a 4231, 442 and (gulp) 5221 man so 433 took a while...

Edit: ignoring Matuidi as he's rank
 
Who do you guys use in LM for BPL?

Willian but Schurrle is good as well. Hazard wasn't great for me as a LM. Would imagine he'd be a decent LW though. He's small weak and good at dribbling so probably not the best bet for you at the mo. Both Schurrle and Willian are good at LM but Schurrle is probably slightly better suited to LM.

Well re-named, Chav :)

Video is on the way, half term from work and off the rest of the week, would have done it tonight but gf's family was round.

Although the way tonight on Fifa is going, I might just rage sell everyone :D
 
Well, it all went a bit hairy in here last night didn't it :D

@ rusty, Neymar seems to be causing me loads of problems when i face him at the moment, hard to deal with that acceleration and shot, makes me want to try him out sometime. Hulk on the other hand seems easy to contain, you might be a lot better with him but he hasn't impressed me when i have faced him.

Do 5* skillers pull of 4* skills easier than your average 4* players? I only ask as when i have the likes of ronaldihno on the ball he does seem far easier and more fluid to pull them off with. Who else do you lot find this with if at all?

Most 4* skills, ie, Berba spin, have a 5* equivalent (McGeady Spin) so a 5* skiller will pull off a different move altogether.

Neymar is great at times, I found him amazing at RCAM in 451, the only downside, was being using 451, but might try it again at some point, I have a few ideas floating round! :D

Yeh i get that. just seems some players skill far easier than other players rated the same. Just wondering which stand out as more natural skillers.

Im not always great at expressing what i mean :D

They are but I'm still not winning enough games and I'm not sure why. Just lost lots of form so I'm going back to basics.

Eto is pacey and jovetic is just an all around beast.

I think you need to start looking at other aspects of your game and not trying to fix it with squad changes. You obviously have a play style that has reached the end of its life span, either it is something small like for example the way you receive passes/tackle/dribble or not dribble or it is something more fundamental like you overall style, charge and barge, wing play, swarm play ( bombarding the in possession player with as many of yours as possible) or the way you defend/man marking/gap cover etc. Im not criticizing your game play at all mind i'm just saying that spending money in the search of the perfect combo isn't working for you so its more the way you play than who you play with.

Remember it takes games to settle in to a player so changing your play style or formation will take even more. Have you tried a single striker? This gives you the benefit of greater midfield presence and allows for more of a build up play style IMO, do you rely heavily on constant forward attack, do you play a slower pace of game? maybe look to speed things up at least just to create space so you can implement a slower more focused move. if vice versa slow things down.

if you scored more goals with eto'o and jov use them, you know you have a performing pair so then you can concentrate on other things without questioning the usefulness of your strikers.

If it was me i would sell rvp, build a second squad with suarez as a lone striker, use a different formation and practice a total different game play with that.

Yeah Neymar is really nice. I packed him and this is his team as I didn't really have any way to use him before this.

As Tim says some 4* moves become different with a 5* skiller but the execution of a genuine 4* move with a 4* player will be the same as a 5* player (if their other stats were equal too)
 
Can you tonk Rybo89 for me please? He's becoming the new Sonny :D

Edit: only joking Rybo - you're a good lad

Don't worry, my mate does it every other day. Out of about 20 games, I have been humiliated every single one them by him :(

I just can't do all this Trigger business, fingers and brain can't react quick enough to do it right :p
