FIFA 14

can i ask a few questions regarding this squad please, so i understand players better.

why you using Abdoulay Konko over Ignazio Abate? I found Abate just quick and a liability elsewhere. Plus Konko has M/M work rates. You can get away with two H/M full backs if you've got 2 CDMs or 3 in midfield but I like one of them to stay back generally...

why you using Kévin Constant over Stefan Radu? Constant is miles better other than -3 to 4 on the defensive stats.


also i always use de rossi and vidal as cdm (i just switch between them for fitness) why use both of them together? not another cam? both seem very high on def? The CAM is Totti. Legend does not sum this guy up. He's also really good as a CAM in a 41212. I find you don't need pace at CAM in a 41212 and his M/M work rates work well there.

I think I am getting the hang of this now, well kind of anyway. I still have trouble with those players who just keep banging the lofted through ball at me, I just can't seem to change quick enough to track their forward runner, and usually they end up with a one-on-one with my goalkeeper.

My squad: http://www.futhead.com/14/squads/10253503/

I have other players, but these are what I would say are my main players.

I really want to use Ozil, but find him far too weak. He is quite good coming off the bench though with 20 mins left, especially if I am winning, using him as a wide right or left player, can tear the opposition apart.

I'd like to save for Neuer, Reus & Schwienstiger - but gonna take ages to get them I think.
 
its not random rubbish tho guys

all players cannot control ball so instantly u have players just taking the ball of u

when its fine your players can control and move or pass ball on

anyone in the north east of England?


Have you tried holding L2 just before the player receives the ball?

I would recomend Rues first over Schwienstiger he will give Lewandowski 10 chem, he is great fun to play with I sold Schwienstiger didn't find him worth the coin to be honest.

Gotta love FIFA, Nani wiped out in the box and no penalty. Opponent runs up the other end and Eto stops Luiz from getting to the ball and it's a penalty to him. There was no tackle made on him, he simply without no word of a lie touched his back and a penalty was given.
 
It's such a joke isn't it. I took the ball around the keeper with a flick of the right stick and his keeper barged me off balance (no idea why he didn't go down to try smother the ball like they usually do) and got no penalty.
 
I get slide tackled taking me out after doing a Ronaldo chop in the box quite often and... nothing. Makes me angry.

GGs ak, 433 is a beautiful formation, learn it :p
 
GG mate I will give 433 another chance it was good fun not sure about Muller on the right with this H/H work rates I wish the was striker. Might have to get robben instead in neymar.
 
Its the only formation I can play in this years Fifa.

funny you should say that, i'm looking back at whats been going wrong and i was using 433 and scoring loads of goals and making great progress, but was also letting in loads as well. most games ended 3-4 or 4-5 so on.

it allowed me to pass the ball, had space to create goals and movement.

then i went to 4-1-2-1-2 and 4-2-3-1, to try and stop people scoring but it also hurt me scoring.

now i'm understanding players work rates better and how things work, maybe i should try 433 again.

time to play happy_2008 i think and test it out, pretty much playing worst fifa ever, as everyone telling me :P

thanks

what i'm doing wrong is having lb and rb both as h/m in 433 or any formation thats got less then 2 cdm players

its allowing me to attack, but players are attacking me on counter attack.

makes sense thinking about it.
