Placements finished 4-1, now find myself in Div 3 with an incredibly off-chem team. Ahahaha.

Anyone else struggling with through balls? They seem much less effective this year, or i'm not holding triangle down long enough to get enough power on it compared to fifa 20.

Mine are hit and miss, when I started playing the early access I'm almost certain I felt they was improved and more effective. Now I'm noticing easy through balls to be made to pass the defence just going directly to the defender instead of finding the gap.

Im at 1850 skill rating and pretty much found my level, I'm pretty bad at both attack and defence atm.
My patterns of play are so ingrained from FIFA 20 where everything was developed for near post strikes it's hard to adjust.

I don’t really ever do sbc packs but I did one last night and managed to pull Son

probably my best pull for the last couple of years. 270k. Still just going to try and save and wait for prices to reduce before building a ‘proper’ team. 4222 is working quite well.

Hi, anyone interested in Pro Clubs?
Also I’ve been using this guide from Reddit https://reddit.com/r/FIFA/comments/j7qwym/412122_d1_guide/

it’s a 41212 (2) and uses a CM to drop back into CB. I’ve found it’s working insanely well for me. I started the game with 15 defeats in 20 but now I’m undefeated in 10. Worth looking at.

Does everyone else find this FIFA extremely high scoring? (I play fut division rivals)

I haven't played in a less than 6 goal game yet!!

Anyone on Xbox want to do some co-op objectives? Need to play 2 Squad Battles games and 1 Rivals. GT is dontlosetouch, will be jumping on now to do some account stuff...

Just got promoted to division 4 and got 0 coins, whats up with that?

Feels good though, i didn't get into 4 at all last year and i spent about £50 on points. This year i have spent nothing and just watched loads of videos to improve my game and im there already having bought the standard version and 0 points.

Good on you. Could you share the vids which helped you most?

Believe the coin bonus in Rivals is a one off thing

The main channel i follow is the Fifa Analyst, really helpful videos, he even does 1 2 1 training sessions if you want to do that.

Then there's a few others i have a look at like, Krasi, Neal guides, Ovvi. It really does help.

Oh and coin selling. Irritants, the pair of them

Anyone having issues with Rivals on PS4? Constantly getting ‘connection to your opponent has been lost’.

Anyone got an idea of how the xbox to series X upgrade will work? I game share with my nephew, I've got a series X hopefully on launch day but he's sticking with his xbox one for the time being. Does upgrading to the series X version disable the original xbox version or?

Thanks, I like the look of the one you linked to as crouch is in the video thumbnail with mbappe

Can just about afford Mbappe, tempted to buy him and then start with a cheaper team again... anyone got him?

Did my Rivals placement matches. Lost the first, won the next 3 and drew the last one. Got placed in Div 4 and got 64k coins. I was robbed in that draw too.

Something seams wrong, I played Fifa 19 and 20 and didn't get above Div 5 now I calibrate in Div 4?

Packed Alisson and ter stagen in the same pack earlier, easy 130k. I also started a new account and won all 5 placement games so I transferred over the 120k to my main account.
