Getting unsure on my strikers for my new team, TOTY Lavezzi at CF, have about 560K and need a RCM, and both strikers...

Was actually considering wiping 180K on TOTY Hulk for RCM or IF Robinho (for LCM), people have raved about him for a long time, and I've never really given him a go which would leave ~400K, was thinking of a combination fo the following, obviously could slip a cheaper striker in such as Milito/86 Ibra/TOTY Pazzini with some of the more expensive options:

87 Cavani
88 Cavani
86 Pato
90 Messi
88 Lopez
89 Tevez
87 Ibra
88 Eto'o
Other options...
 
Yeah, hulk would play RCM which after customisation ends up as RCAM and would suit him perfectly, although just learnt that Pato is right footed, for some reason I alway had him down as a lefty..!

Half tempted by Tevez/Messi but wy are these damn argies so small? :D

i always pair a tall striker with a well rounded one. so for me it would have to be Ibra and any one of the others.
 
True, tbh with Lavezzi up in CF and having had most of the great Serie A strikers at some point or another I'm thinking Argentina is the way to go..

Which combo of (in the best IF guises I can afford at the time):

Tevez/Aguero
Tevez/Lopez
Higuain/Messi (I'm liking this one in my head)
Higuain/Lopez
Higuain/Tevez

Lopez / Messi? or is that too much coin?

Messi is left footed so put him on the right and Higuain/Tevez on the left, i definitely wouldn't pick Aguero he is a poor mans Tevez.
 
88 Lopez runs around 190k, Messi about 200k, so easily doable, only worry there is no real height, both are way under even 5"10, with Lavezzi at CF being very short, too..

Higuain, however, would carry Messi well as the bigger, stronger attacker, and also have both La Liga & Argie ties so better chem between the ST's...

Just trying to decide as well for the 3rd CM, Currently have IF Cambiasso & TOTY Asamoah, so its either TOTY Hulk (Chemistry with Maicon only) or TOTY Robinho to go in, both have amazing attributes to bring to it..hmm...

Hernandez 85 or 86? I know the obvious but is there a big enough difference to spend 80k more on?

I wouldn't mind IF Saha again, I like a right footed and left footed combo up front.

When I had IF Hernandez & TOTY Hernandez they both felt good, but the TOTY felt dramatically better, to me.

If you can afford the splash the extra cash, I would tbh.

MEssi is crap, get Ronny instead imo.

Read the rest of the post, as good as Ronaldo is, he would be in your words, instead of Messi, so on his off foot, positions as ST, playing RF card, correct formation, no chemistry from any other players aside from Higuain if I even got him, max of about 5 chemistry, which is the kind of thing I am trying to avoidn in this lineup, last time I had too many what ifs & maybes which left a fair handful of players under 7 chemistry and the team lacking overall, too.

Also, Messi is not crap, he has low (55) strength, which can be a very negative point in UT when you have 4 of the biggest & toughest defenders in X league/combo of leagues going at you, but that is his only "problem" aside from the height issue which is easy enough to work around.

he does have a point Messi is crap, even if i had the coins, i wouldn't buy him, he gets bullied by my players all the time, i have never found him to be a problem. Ronaldo on the other hand can pick a goal out of thin air.

Lopez/Milito, if i had to pick 2 argentinians, Tevez is good but Milito is much more well rounded. If Milito had an IF he would be insane.

or stick Menez as CF and put IF Henry and Anelka up front
 
TOTY Bent got a 10 minute hat trick in his first game for me last night. :D He is miles better than Hernandez. Bought IF Henry too but haven't had chance to use him yet, will probably be a supersub though.
 
Bought IF Beckham in CM for the lulz. His passing, Crosses and free kicks are amazing. If you can get him in the right posistion for a finese shot on the left corner out side of the box, it goes in.

Only problem is, he is very very slow and sluggish.
