currently using this team, Son 88 LF is a miracle worker. Scores 99.9% every shot.

Have Musa, Martial & Kante as subs around the 70th min.

Have around 150k to spend on a striker? I have been using Sanchez as ST.

Any recommendations? I am not too good as a player but this team feels good.

Quite a strange team that, particularly the midfield, does it work?

OTW cards presumably don't go up for TOTS? Just looking at the Mané OTW price and it hasn't gone up at all so I assume not?

Yeah it seems to work ok, may alter the formation and have son as lm with 4 midfield and one striker and one cf.

Whats strange? Interested to know your opinions.

SBCs for TOTT are out. Eeeeeek.

Oh yeah, regionals stream here https://www.twitch.tv/easportsfifa

Casemiro looks even more ridiculous.

If you can get that Dendoncker in your team then get him. Or sub him on, whatever. His 84 card was better 87 Casemiro for me.

I like to have a physical midfield with high aggression.

But that's just me

You've got three attack-minded midfielders when it's good to have at least one 'holding' in the middle, a Can or a Matic, and then probably one engine like a Kanté or Dembele. You've also got a right back that can't really defend. Good top 3 but I'd definitely recommend Aguero if you can afford him.

Just me or is Smalling trash? Feels so cumbersome on the ball and constantly takes bad touches which go straight back to the opposition. Once he messes up I sub him out immediately for red 86 Perrin who ***** all over him in every conceivable way. Shame there aren't any decent PL CBs.

Bday Ogbonna is a stud for me.

Got to agree with this, although I starting to dislike smalling more and more because of the reasons above

i have a love hate with Smalling, i drop him then miss him so end up fetching him back in. I picked 88 Schmeichael up not sure what i think seems very fast though.
How you doing in the WL Jim?

our servers are tempory down on the FUT web app & were experiencing high traffic volumes message on the Xbox One ?

Dannyb01y · 21 Apr 2017 at 22:37

Probably high traffic because its now on ea access

Its happens most Fridays with the Xbox. I have checked ea forums and its not just me.

Dannyb01y · 21 Apr 2017 at 22:49

Oh well that's disappointing. I've stopped buying Fifa every year but like to dabble when its on ea access. You'd think the servers would be ok on the less popular console.
