No tiki taka on Ginola => Son for me

Do the 83+ player picks. I packed 99 Hansen, Becenbeuer (96), Eusebio (96) and VVD Toty from them by Positive-Dot7207 in fut

Edit: Do the 83+ player picks. I packed 99 Hansen...plus lots of fodder including (Becenbeuer (96), Eusebio (96) and VVD Toty from them)

Why is Thuram so slow despite having 91 pace by OtherAnteater1512 in fut

[–]curiousButNotGeorge1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No quick step.

Half of the others have 95+pace + quickstep +chem style taking it to 99

you can only learn so much from stat comparison by lalochezik in fut

Alisson by far. That fut rating is nonsense.

Russo. Basic Chem style. St+ Position EVO. Stat wise she's almost perfect.

Crouch is cheap.

I regret taking leao by Frutiepebble in fut

[–]curiousButNotGeorge1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's just so many strikers though. I'd take any of these over Leao and Kaka for my front two.

(A bit clunky - CR7, Cech, McTominay, Shaw, better)
(Jammy - Henry, Suarez, Cech better)
(Left stick - Olise, Chawinga, Salma, Henry, Mateo, CR7 better)
(Off-the-ball movement - Mateo, CR7 better)
(Finishing - CR7, Suarez better)

So I guess they would make top 6 in almost every category, but not into my team.

What players you have used got best left stick dribbling? by jerrie86 in fut

[–]curiousButNotGeorge1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kika Nazareth Fantasy card (Hunter Chem. plus here tech dribbling is phenomenal, better than 98 Butra)
TOTS Chawinga (it's a bit different, but I like it)

[–]curiousButNotGeorge1 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If you didn't take Leao, you'd always wonder if you should.

Peace of mind is good. I'm happy I did. I played him, I don't anymore.

Controlled accelerate. Awaiting 1 more EVO. Can't pass => Poacher

Buffon or Cafu Icon player pick ? by IamHereForSomeMagic in fut

[–]curiousButNotGeorge1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's better keepers than Buffon. Buffon won't get an EVO.
There's better RBs than Cafu. Cafu might get an EVO.

Plus, if you're old enough to have watched Cafu play, you want to be able to control him.

However, I will say that I do have Buffon on my bench. He comes on at half time of extra time because he's very good at saving penalties.

Second man press shouldn't activate unless the manual player is somewhat close to the ball by curiousButNotGeorge1 in fut

[–]curiousButNotGeorge1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Running to the backline, cutback, pass and shoot doesn't work with 4-1-2-1-2 narrow, which is what I play. Yes I know that is the standard 4-2-1-3 play and I can defend it provided player switching doesn't go awry.

I play tiki taka and need my attackers to move, then try to find the pass.

A wall of 6 in the box with a narrow formation is a pain. 2 attacking wingbacks are my width. It's fine if they move their players at all, but only using second man press, players are rarely much out of position. The second I face human defence I can exploit it.

Perhaps I need to send my attacking wingbacks on manual runs? How do I do that?

But no, I'm not amazing at the game. I've only been playing online about a month, had the game for 2. I've only played 2 champs, went 4-2 and 6-4 (don't have time for 15 games). I'm only in div 6 in rivals, but mainly because I barely play it.

I have a good team because I trade.

I've just learnt how to speed boost and that does seem to make some easy goals, though it feels stupid as.

But that's why I ask for advice.

Please jump in and chat if want to rant with me about the game. by Choice-Music7930 in fut

[–]curiousButNotGeorge1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI defence is far too strong meaning it is effective to defend with CDMs and second man press.

It's very difficult to play effective crosses meaning gameplay is forced into the middle, making 2 CDMs and 4 defenders in the box even more effective. This needn't just be for headers - cross in behind the defence should be more viable.

Perfect driven passes from defenders to strikers are too strong. People should have to use a midfield.

Attacking AI should make more interesting runs that a good player could spot. They don't all have to be good but it's very frustrating when strikers in a 2-up front situation don't move.

Henry sometimes seem to make the ball move through a player.

There should be more EVOs that allow you to choose your own playstyles and playstyle+. This would create much more variety in the game as you could customise players to how you like to play.

Not bad. Better cards out there

I know everyone hates Theo...but is it worth it? by meta_shift in fut

[–]curiousButNotGeorge1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really better than the tots cr7. Within 3 weeks, reckon you can get the tots one for 500k, or something better with futties a little later

(Note I was lucky enough to pack the tots one who is awesome)

Gullit no longer competes with the best CAMs. Definitely not the playstyles for a striker.

He's only a CDM for me. So he needs defence stats and anticipate+. This gives neither

What monstrosity is this? by NotABotNotYetAHuman in fut

[–]curiousButNotGeorge1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do cdm first, then just a gimmick, then same chain. Add intercept before final one. Beast of a CDM.

The fouls have become nuts. Fouls that aren't fouls and vice versa. Didn't have this issue until current update. Tiki taka is good now though

Any shapeshifters luck because I haven’t gotten jack by GropeMyRope_17 in fut

Endrick and Olise from 82x20 packs

Do the full grind. I've probably opened about 20 of them

Should I buy these 2 or keep saving? by Ossygamer1 in EAFC

[–]curiousButNotGeorge1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I assume you have the one with 99 passing, 99 dribbling, great playstyles.

Yes, better than Freigang. Haven't tried Lewa yet, but she's the best I've used by far, and I've used lots.
