I think Bateson does his objectives in Div 7 and he usually finishes Elite in WL. Plus all his objective team are stacked as he owns almost every player in the game.
So yeah, I imagine lots of people are doing the same to get objectives done. It sort of ruins Rivals, although if I'm honest I'm not sure what else Rivals would be used for if not objectives.

What happened to people wanting to play games for the fun of it!

The worst bit about it is once you do finally play someone that hasn't self relegated, you feel bad for slapping your opponent. The weekend league barely causes me any stress compared to Rivals now, that wasn't the case last year.

I think Fifa would be hell of a lot better if the YouTubers all ****ed off tbh.

Yep.

FIFA has just become everyone playing WL in hope their opponent rage quits, rinse and repeat.

Nick Pope 82 rated is the worst keeper I've ever used, in any FIFA, he wasn't a long term option, but I was just trying out a team. Is 88 Henderson usable? I found 97 Alisson crap half the time so I'm not sure the rating actually matters.

Gold MATS if on a budget.

I had red 92 of him, I wasn't impressed. I assume you're talking Ter Stegen..

I have Ben White, who is proving to be a beast along side VVD. Hence the need for an English keeper ideally.

Cazorla I'm also using too who is actually extremely usable.

Right, had enough of the ****ing fraud. Messi's a goner when the next SBC appears.

Stop playing at 3 in the morning!

Do you want a game tonight? Having a rest from Warzone. You can see my silly new team.

Two games, two Alisson mistakes. Diego Carlos saved that penalty

Messi lasted 15 minutes in the second game, subbed him on at HT and off after 60 minutes after he finessed it in to row Z.

I went to sky that penalty as it was BS but it went on target instead lol. I noticed Messi got subbed after coming on 5 mins prior

.

Good games dude

You attack very similar to the last time we played but you seemed to defend a lot deeper and were much harder to break down. I should've slowed down and passed it around more but kept sprinting around

I'm playing a draft with his POTM card and he's so good in comparison. Far easier to dribble with and has scored two already.

Edit: Hattrick. Robbo's right about this card, the difference is night and day.

I just have both things on balanced and 5 bars, I have had a good night in rivals for once, trying to be a bit more composed rather than gung ho, pass and run.

White is so good at the back, so happy I did the SBC for him.

I didn't notice him, I only noticed VVD. Is that his NIF or another version?

Lost 7-1 to another verified player in the second round of the draft. Much easier to take when it's not Division 8, 9 or 10 in Rivals.

I think he was the reason you subbed Messi, haha. It's his TOTTS

Thanks Pigeon

Yes it would be interesting what I can do if I sack off warzone and dedicate some time to the WL.

Discard Messi and upload to YT

Andybtsn · 20 May 2020 at 22:54

What are these packs everyone is doing? Not that I have any players for SBC anyway

Andybtsn · 21 May 2020 at 00:35

Why has it taken 6 months for everyone to suddenly be able to score from FKs?

Andybtsn · 21 May 2020 at 01:22

If only I could be arsed to look up how to do it

Andybtsn · 21 May 2020 at 13:25

I think Son is the best striker Prem wise. Even the gold is rinsing most players I’ve tried.

I’m speaking to myself here, just trying to work out who to play up top with Sane.

Andybtsn · 21 May 2020 at 16:54

I got the RTTF Son, Sane although having a terrible weak foot is unreal up front, so I’m not changing him yet. 89 Mahrez LM seems great, I hated him in every other position before putting him there. Bergwijn’s stats were way better than Traore so he’s going to be RM. Again, the weak foot helps tenfold.

This community. Playing a friendly to get the assist for the Draft Token, go 4-0 up, decide to let him score, he scores a second and then a third, immediately shushes me then pauses the game and I get a message telling me if I don't quit my family are dead. WTF lol

what’s his username? Report the **** and we can all do the same. He will get a few days off

Andybtsn · 21 May 2020 at 20:01

Is that a slow defence?!

Bought 91 VVD to use instead of Maguire. Been wanting to see how VVD actually is in this game there is always a lot of hyper about how his body and animations are.

Simply put, WTF.

He is ridiculous really, I know if I'm one on one with him both attacking and defending then there aren't many players who can beat him, even pace wise he always gets a foot in.

Why does anyone play the weekend league?

my first for months and it’s just drag back after drag back after drag back.

Games so far

5-5 lost on pens
4-2 got hammered
3-0 up drag drag drag lose 4-3
2-0 up drag drag drag lose 3-2
Rage quit.

5 games in and 5 losses due to drag backs. Seriously how is it even a thing you don’t see a single pro footballer do it ever?!

It is boring but doesn't really single handedly win games, it just opens up space, granted for a through ball or to get a player on their strong foot but it's quite easy to read eventually. Everyone does it regardless of their skill. La croq was more game breaking last year.

WL > Rivals
