FIFA 19

So while Prime Maradona is amazing, good players are forcing me onto his weak foot all the time and it's getting annoying.

So, hello Prime Cruyff! Wanted him for ages. Used the 89 a few months ago and he was one of the standout players I've tried.

I got absolutely squelched this afternoon, passes intercepted, shots blocked all over the place, couldbt do a thing, thought I'd do rivals instead, average BPL team, should get some faith back! Lost 7-1!

Will .... Not...... Rage. ... Sell...... Team

This happened to me earlier as well and I e just won a couple on the bounce this evening, gameplay earlier was shocking

I do ok for a while then I hit a run of decent players and just cannot get the ball. (or game is shafting me...

)

I vowed never to sell Van Dijk but struggling to build new team around him, he's so damn good and always stands out for me and the opposition. Argh

Finishing tonight with 12-3 got outplayed in my losesl so can't complain. Back to using 41212 narrow and seems to work for now.

Anyone got any tips for penalties? I literally get the majority saved, I had 3 (THREE) pens in two out of 9 games tonight, I missed 4 of 6.

Watch player head movement, when you aim, the players head faces the way you're aiming. So aim to the one side - make it really obvious - then when running up, go the other way. When your opponent is taking a pen, watch which way they aim, most players don't seem to know about it... I save the majority of penalties due to this.

Practice too so you can hit them max power into the top corner.

Andybtsn · 19 Jan 2019 at 22:28

Yeah I know the head movement thing, problem is the opposition seems to read it too!

Rids · 19 Jan 2019 at 22:38

I stutter step all my pens

NooBish AbbZ · 19 Jan 2019 at 23:44

I've started putting no direction on my penalties until towards the end of the run up, because of the 'look'. Instead, just apply your power with B without touching the stick. Then give it your direction late in the run up.

Crespo sbc is out. Anyone used him? Not sure I can get 1 mil coins in the month to finish it that's my only worry.

Dabbled back into WL, 2-1 and already done, the loss was the worst game of FIFA I’ve ever dealt with. The other guy was absolutely trash but Casillas was stopping everything and Ibra hit the post/crossbar 8 times with 2 clearances off the line. Had to check the deadzone on my controller afterwards to see if it was off as he missed some absolute sitters on top of that.

Lost 3-1 with 70% possession, 21 shots on target to his 4... I played exactly the same as my 2 wins where everything was flying in nicely.

Not used him but i have been thinking about getting one of his cards in order to use Flashback Tevez up front with full Chemistry. My only concern with that is I love having Lukaku as my Left Striker in order to drive shots across the keeper, rather than cut in and finesse. I do it on the right side too, but it's a lot easier to find right footers

chroniclard · 20 Jan 2019 at 09:39

So right stick switching, I thought you just had to push towards the player you wanted but its not doing anything for me or it goes to some random player miles away.....

Jimbeam3678 · 20 Jan 2019 at 09:53

The pressure you apply dictates which player as well.

GreenMint · 20 Jan 2019 at 10:01

I think yesterday I applied zero pressure to my opponents, in years gone by I'd have rage sold by 10pm!

Sod it, using an old xbox controller, off to buy a new controller, thats bound to be the reason i lose a lot right?

Yeah, that'll be it! :cool:

So Baresi's 93 prime doesn't need an icon but Crespo's 90 does, hmm...
