Is it just me or does any one else seem to struggle against teams play 4-5-1? I always tend to think midfields to crowded to play football and get it out wide and end up playing through balls over the top. Not to bad when you have Martins, Agbonlahore and Bent on your bench though

The only formation I really struggled against was a 5-3-2 when the guy went to ultra-defensive from the start, so his defenders never moved up at all, and it was a really tough defensive line to get through. Still won 2-1, but I've never had as much difficulty getting through a defence than that game.

Just got creamed 31 - 1 lol

Guy had a stupid team though.
4-1-2-1-2

..............Reina
Maicon..Lucio...Vidic...Evra
..............Fabregas
....Messi.................Hulk
..............Ronaldo
..........Villa..........Torres

Somehow it had 100 chem too, which seems impossible ? anyway, really falling out of love with UT, its really time (..real cash..) influenced and you can turn a good team into gods if you blow consumable cards every game to boost all their stats.

The only way I can see that team getting 100 chem is for everyone to have the 4-1-2-1-2 formation as their preferred, as well as having a Spanish manager who is also 4-1-2-1-2.

Christ. That person needs to get a life.

How can playing with that team be fun?

Think he was down by the corner flag, on the floor, getting stomped on by Maicon

He was wandering off round the edges with the rest of the midfield, parting of the Red Seas!

Buy a CDM Tim, it'll help you no end

It's not quite that extreme though.

roband · 22 Mar 2011 at 11:27

Also, the day Tim beats me 31-1, I will eat my Xbox

Getting Xabi Alonso & Mascherano trained up, have also changed formations and first match was a 5-2 win with 4 David Silva psycho misses

It could be if he spent what he has left rather than saving for Messi as well

Anyone up for a UT league? Or is one already running?

roband · 22 Mar 2011 at 11:58

I was thinking about suggesting a league, last night. Not UT though, I'd wanna do clubs.

Davey_Pitch · 22 Mar 2011 at 12:12

I had my first game of Pro Clubs last night, with my Virtual Pro, and I have to admit, I loved it! I have an 87 rated Striker and he played up front, and I really enjoyed it, trying to break through the defence, making runs, closing defenders down. I even scored and got MOTM, was well happy

GazD · 22 Mar 2011 at 12:13

Right is X.Alonso worth the coins? I currently play 4222 and have Masch and Diarra with Keita as backup for the CDM position. Looking at around 18-19k which will wipe my coins out to get Alonso in the side.

I was in the 360 club but left last week, I think they are always busy with UT or other games so thought it was a bit pointless staying. I don't mind joining another club if people want to play clubs instead, I actually find it to be more enjoyable on the whole than UT, and it also isn't as time consuming or addictive. I can play most days/nights.

Are you on PS3 by any chance? I paid less than 10k coins when I got him. I do like him, he's got a good range of passing and is pretty solid defensively, but he could do with being a bit quicker if I'm honest, that's his only downside.

Roband means a Fifa 11 League using club teams chap.

Which is more of a logistical nightmare than Fifa Clubs is as well

Yeah, this.

I've never played that 11-real-players-per-team thing.
Sounds scary

J4K3 M · 22 Mar 2011 at 13:17
