I play a RB Ramos as CB and he is great in the air

Thats what I used to think when I had RB Ramos at CB, maybe I was expecting miracles after dropping 280K on him, I dunno!

 

[Stewy]

is that more expensive than IF Pepe? I always found Pepe so much better than Ramos when I did la liga, is the same true of the IFs?

 

[GreenMint]

I think IF Pepe is ~140K?

 

[GreenMint]

Keep thinking about building a cheap IF EPL 3-4-2-1 side? IF Park, IF Bellamy, IF Huth, etc..

Any ideas?

 

[Stewy]

I wouldn't recommend IF Huth for a 3 man defence!

IF Park's stats are actually pretty good, was contemplating buying him myself.

 

[GreenMint]

IF Park looks a real beast tbh, as does Bellamy, I dunno about Huth, his size & physical stats could make him a good central defender of the 3, looks a bit of an iron man lol

or mix in some frenchies, IF Valbuena, Ribery, etc..

Just fancy doing something random alongside the main team, its that or blow 300K on SIF Neymar.

 

[Stewy]

Who would you have as the other quick CBs though? Richards and Luiz?

 

[GreenMint]

Possibly, yeah.. hmm..

 

[Hilly]

So, I've stuck up all of the La Liga players this morning, sold around half or so.

Should have 300-350k at the end of it, though no idea what I'm going to do with it. I might pick Rooney up and see how he is, would have a front 2 from any of: Torres, Tevez, Aguero, Rooney, Carroll, Agbonglahor - As Rafa would say, many options no?

The only thing I wish the EPL had more of, is Right Wingers. There's just a massive lack of decent RW's.

I might try IF Ben Arfa see how that works out.

 

[Stewy]

I just use Nani and Young there with a dark green boot.

 

[topher]

anyone tried IF Alvarez LM in serie A? was thinking about trying him at LM in 41212
NIF Lavezzi is probably better

 

[GreenMint]

Not tried him, but I think you'd struggle to beat Lavezzi for usability as a LM in 4-1-2-1-2, loved him there

 

[Metalface Mark]

Just had the joy of playing a Sturridge / Agbonlawhore 1-2 spammer, literally the most frustrating thing in the world, nothing I can do with Vidic and Kompany when they can literally just run round me.

Just stand off them?

 

[Stewy]

On the break it's impossible.

 

[SMlFFY]

What's IF Nocerino like, anybody know?

 

[Jimbeam3678]

On the break it's impossible.

Not saying I'm an expert but I just set my team to defence mode and stand off. Not an exciting game , but not much else you can do against those sort of players.

Got this info from EA forum: http://forum.ea.com/uk/posts/list/1348405.page

EA are really milking these updates/TOTY this year it seems! Sad thing is I actually dont care - shut up and take my money!

[Stewy]

Presumably upgraded versions are still to come?

Didn't realise that Hleb was still at Barca, is he just contracted there then sent out on loan all the time?

 

[GreenMint]

They should be there indefinitely though, so give them time and they'll be cheap & abundant!

Although if you pull Henry tonight I'd expect 100k+
