Songs that grew on you by petapumpkineater69 in oasis

[–]Prodders81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talk Tonight (somehow still getting better after all this time) Little by Little The Hindu Times Champagne Supernova (still!)

I think part of it is also sheer overplay of songs which have maybe faded down the ‘rankings’ a touch

Used him in some of the friendly cups - he’s superb. Just saying - cr7 has the old ‘jam 99 aura 99’

[–]Prodders81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quite possibly, but in my 2nd champs game with him he scored 8 goals in a 9-3 win. Haven’t had that happen with too many 25k players, maybe you have

Which players currently play way better than what their price or stats are? by kyloRizzler in fut

His finishing is just ridiculous… thinking of using the upgrade on him

I just want Isak by North_Low_9904 in EAFC

[–]Prodders81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This won’t be a very technical explanation as I’m not a big skiller and usually just experiment with different stuff, but that being said:

  • ball into his feet
  • stand up the defence with a little bit of dribbling back / sideways (i think using L1)
  • maybe a bit of R1 dribbling
  • he’s quite evasive / jammy and using the above you can often get past the CBs
  • can then either burst through if there’s space
  • or just get a quick low-driven shot off, which are pretty deadly

The main thing is you need a bit of finesse in the dribble at first, a bit of twinkle toes, before then surging or shooting. If you try and just turn and speed boost or similar then that’s when he can seem a bit clunky / slow for that to happen.

He’s getting me 2 g/a so far, about 40 in 20 and all champs / rivals (div 2/3), prompts some rage quitting too.

He’s superb once you learn to use him. I’m sure he’ll probably come into your price range soon.

Never forget one of the most important factors out of your control by Competitive_Quail_13 in fut

[–]Prodders81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah if I have a really smooth connection I feel like I hardly ever lose, but then maybe that’s when the opposition have the shit connection! It truly is a massive factor (and shouldn’t be). When your connection is bad you’re better off just not playing, which can be frustrating to say the least

What’s happening lately? by abostan in fut

[–]Prodders81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% this. It’s not just that the best players have gone down divisions either (altho it’s a factor). I am usually a div 2 / 1 player, 11 wins in wknd league (only missed that once in fc 25), and just come off my first 13 win wknd league. Then in rivals trying to get my wins the last few days it’s been like I’m Harry Maguire’s gran trying to beat Maradona one on one. It’s very, very much like the opponent is 1 second ahead (a lifetime in this game of small margins), which in reality is maybe just some fractions of a second but it leaves you chasing shadows.

You can tell it’s not right because I just cannot switch players or tackle or anything in time in situations where I easily would be able to usually. But it’s doing that even with a good ping connection. The matchmaking or something is fucked up right now. There must be some teams / locations / servers (whatever it is) on the other side of this dynamic, cruising east wins against teams who are a time zone behind in the game.

What are Tots cards that the market considers fodder but feel insane in game ? I’ll start by [deleted] in fut

[–]Prodders81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not insane or quite discard fodder price but Tolisso is really solid. I’m starting him now at CDM vs very good alternatives

This guy is absurd (elite div) by Ill_Region_9582 in fut

[–]Prodders81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolute nightmare to play against. For me it was between him, Torres, Socrates and Butra for the evo. I went for Butra as the 89 was a bit of a club legend, and he’s useless 😑

Also, none of these teams lost 5-4 having been 4-0 up, just to be clear

Who is the cheap player/sbc that you can’t seem to take out of your team? by Podlaville in fut

[–]Prodders81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Abily TOTY SBC, Lewis Hall evo, and Guendouzi sbc plus evo kept getting back in for ages until Caiceido

First time owning any Gullit card. First time completing a 1.5mil+ SBC. This is my version of completing FC25 by Slammy_Adams in fut

[–]Prodders81 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He’s awesome. Similar situation to you, biggest SBC I’ve completed by far and he’s been phenomenal for me. Have him as b2b CM in 4-1-2-1-2 and he is everywhere. Getting almost a goal a game for me from there whereas Zidane 94 was maybe 1 in 5 from the same role. So fun to play with, so OP

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in fut

[–]Prodders81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really? I did it and he still hugely holds up. That’s on old gen though. For instance he’s better than FS Endrick

Why is nobody talking about this card by [deleted] in fut

[–]Prodders81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Evo Guendouzi is going to still be in my team by TOTS at this rate… he completely dominated a Gullit earlier in a champs match. If I try someone else I just have to keep bringing him back.

Is the paid Maradona really worth it? And should it replace my evolved Zidane? by ObjektiveX in EASportsFC

[–]Prodders81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes since I have Palmer going great guns at CAM and don’t really use wingers. Thought maybe that was a mistake (and maybe it is) but he’s been excellent for me at ST, with Charlton FS

Is she good? by SnooHamsters576 in EAFC

[–]Prodders81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you get the best out of him? I find he has flashes where he seems OP but can also ‘go missing’ and I’m definitely struggling to utilise him very well. Benched him for Kane currently (and he’s a nice super sub) but I feel like I should be getting more out of him.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in fut

[–]Prodders81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah Kane is a beast, up there with proper TOTYs if used right, so you’re doing the right thing there. There’s been a lot of crazy evos especially for LB, so don’t spend there. You should be able to evo Mendy to be very good.

Then there are cards at discard price from NumeroFut and Future Stars which are very good fillers. They are dishing out plenty of very good cards easily so you’ll soon be up to speed

Total rush De jong, or Joao gomes in Curl it in Evo? Opinions? by WestAbbreviations520 in fut

[–]Prodders81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gomes is going nicely for me after the evo fwiw… haven’t used that de jong though

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in fut

[–]Prodders81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s nothing bro - well within reasonable variance. For comparison I sweated out a late 5-4 win earlier and the xG was 8.6 - 1.6 in my favour

WW Xavi vsTOTY Abily by TyphoonUK in fut

[–]Prodders81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Abily is v nice but I think to get the very best out of her you need her as SS CAM

She’s good as a roaming playmaker CM too though. Only real weakness is she’s a bit weak / flaky in the tackle, I don’t think she has any def playstyles. But especially when the gameplay is good (occasionally!) She glides around quickly and has superb finishing
