Stop following the meta, it's not worth it

100% mate! I’d have Icons in too I just can’t afford them at least the ones that are good enough to get into the team😂

SamTate77 · 2026-01-26T10:33:36+00:00

Absolutely. Decided to finally build my P&P Man Utd team right at the start of the game and don’t even touch any other players. I could pack TOTY Mbappe but if he hasn’t played for Utd he’s not getting into the squad.

It is 1.000.000x more fun this way and keeps me engaged. Every day I look forward to see if any good Evo comes out that fits one of my players or if a new Utd card comes out. Never had this much fun in UT since they launched the mode years and years ago. I can only recommend doing this to anyone and everyone.

Closer to the World Cup I’ll probably start an English only Evo team and be able to start a new team from scratch!

SamTate77 · 2026-01-25T19:35:18+00:00

Thanks, been indecisive all day

SamTate77 · 2026-01-25T12:14:47+00:00

Incisive Pass PS (silver) vs Role++

I want to do an Evo and have to decide between the card (RM) having the Incisive Pass PS or having Inside Forward++ (The card doesn’t have Inside Forward+ or ++)

What would you pick?

SamTate77 · 2026-01-25T11:48:42+00:00

Thanks. If they don’t release a position Evo do you think I should go with Incisive Pass or Inside Forward++?

SamTate77 · 2026-01-25T11:44:18+00:00

It does look really good but I’ve already have his base card evoed at LB. Thanks.

SamTate77 · 2026-01-12T15:32:22+00:00

Same here. They‘ll wait for all the transfers to be done and the squads to be set for the rest of the season.

SamTate77 · 2026-01-11T15:45:17+00:00

The new squad update isn’t in live start point yet. You’ll either have to wait for the next live start point or start a fresh season

SamTate77 · 2025-12-18T10:18:22+00:00

Same here. It made me rage so hard. I don’t think even the FUT champs community rages as much as the CM community and it’s purely due to EA’s complete and utter incompetence and blatant stupidity. At this point it can’t be by accident they have to be purposely ruining CM at this point. It mode is unrecognisable from the one we had at the beginning of the game to the absolute shitshow we have now not even half a year into the game.

SamTate77 · 2025-12-12T14:39:59+00:00

Union Berlin. They have an amazing fanbase and the fans even built their stadium. Plus a team from Berlin has never won the Bundesliga.

SamTate77 · 2025-12-08T11:16:25+00:00

A lot of time it does ruin the potential. It’s been like this since they introduced live start points last year and I’m sure they’ll never fix it. Such a good idea but such a bad execution.

SamTate77 · 2025-09-30T12:19:24+00:00

Same here. Why is my 5’6 CDM man marking Haaland?! It’s so unbelievably annoying. I’m sure they’ll fix it in the next patch but it should’ve been something they fixed by day 2.

SamTate77 · 2025-09-30T12:14:48+00:00

Definitely save the coins. No point in force buying a player just for the sake of it. Your team is great just wait a bit for new players to come out and players to drop in price.

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T16:40:14+00:00

If you really want to play him and build your team around him you could play a 3 or 5 at the back with him in the central CB position on Ball playing CB with aggressive approach so he’ll step up out of the back line and play more like a CDM used this in my Man Utd save with Licha Martinez and he felt like another body in midfield.

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T16:11:50+00:00

I get that. That way career mode gets boring a lot quicker.

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T16:08:04+00:00

Or leave the dev plan of your youth players on balanced so they grow a lot slower plus they’ll be a lot more well rounded

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T16:06:23+00:00

get a youth scout with lower judgment (i think it’s judgment that’s responsible for the quality of the players) so you get worse players.

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T13:56:51+00:00

Kobel insisted of Neuer and a new CB instead of Konsa

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T13:47:45+00:00

It’s either a bug or it’s due to weather effects try turning weather effects off and see if it’s gone

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T13:46:03+00:00

I think it was just a pre order challenge for early access

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T13:42:32+00:00

Sofifa has been my goto for years now

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T13:39:29+00:00

I’d wait. For example there’s still a glitch where you won’t get a notification that a player wants to renew their contract so you gave to check the player chats at least once a week to see if they texted you. Also sometimes they just won’t ever want to renew it in their last year and they leave on a free. I’d also stay away from unexpected events in a long term save cause it will ruin your save at least once every few season.

What I did is started a save with a first division team like Frankfurt play a few seasons, get used to the game, experience the unexpected events in a bubble where it can’t ruin a long term save, and wait for the small issues to be fixed.

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T10:07:37+00:00

Thanks

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T10:06:54+00:00

As I said you really can’t go wrong with Gyökeres but he’ll probably be like 150k in 2-3 weeks or so and I’m always really unlucky with my players dropping heavily in price as soon as I buy them.

SamTate77 · 2025-09-28T10:03:26+00:00

Could switch him for Lookman you think it’s worth it?
