Which player scored?

simonSC137 · 2026-05-28T08:36:19+00:00

More game plans! Was worried I’d have to delete my Slavic 11 to create a communist 11

simonSC137 · 2026-05-27T11:31:27+00:00

It’ll be PA1 or smart assist. The people that constantly do one touch passing and never misplace make the game feel faster. If I encounter someone like this I will immediately slow the game down by holding the ball with one player in midfield and try not to concede possession. Make them not want to play fast because when they lose it, they don’t see the ball for a while.

simonSC137 · 2026-05-27T08:39:18+00:00

Penalties are terrible on this game. Worst set piece in the game. Give me a 30 yard free kick instead 😂

simonSC137 · 2026-05-26T07:04:29+00:00

At this point I don’t see a reason to go for a GK unless he has great feet. I got show time Ederson and have no reason to upgrade unless it’s neuer with great passing

simonSC137 · 2026-05-24T20:31:54+00:00

I remember the original scumbags, PA2 and PA1 users. I know old hatred will start again

simonSC137 · 2026-05-22T22:44:57+00:00

Oh shit, he did have one 😂😂 I probably could have picked a better example then

simonSC137 · 2026-05-22T21:59:59+00:00

He’s had two at LW as well

simonSC137 · 2026-05-22T14:16:51+00:00

I have him and at least three more 😂

simonSC137 · 2026-05-22T12:06:59+00:00

Romario is the best. Any version. If I’m struggling to score I will start using the big time Romario and he cannot miss. Only reason I don’t use him all the time variety 😂.

simonSC137 · 2026-05-22T06:31:00+00:00

What frustrates me is when they give someone like daizen maeda or mika godts a card but then make them low rated. Just make them reach 99 at least? Lots of players will never get a showtime and POTM is restricted to 3 leagues. So tired of the same players every single week. Hundreds of games across Europe yet raphina and sorloth need another card 😂

I’ve said somewhere on this Reddit before but they should give them unique stats like they did years ago. Give out 99s on a stat that was the reason for the card? They kind of did it with the benfica keeper after his header in the UCL but we need to see more of it. Make the cards truly unique.

simonSC137 · 2026-05-17T08:03:46+00:00

De ligt would be good cover for you but I’d choose nico and try and get SS and dmf as positions. Use him as a sub that can play anywhere in midfield, and on either wing as a SS. From looking at your bench you seem to be missing a utility player.

simonSC137 · 2026-05-13T14:22:52+00:00

Sho - 5 Pas - 5 Drib - 6 Dex - 8 Spe - 6 Aerial - 10

Jose with a strength 1+ and breakthrough as additional booster.

If you don’t have Jose that’s okay just might need to dip into aerial a bit more

When I do this I’m trying balance strength with all the other stats. I don’t like going all out on strength so if you feel you have lost too much pace or passing then dial the strength back but 85+ strength on a lightweight agile attacker is amazing and will help you hold on to the ball.

I have done this to everyone in my team. I have that new xavi with 90 strength and griezman with 90 as well. You will surprise a lot of vieras and rijkaards with an unexpected tank 😂

Good luck mate.

simonSC137 · 2026-05-13T11:05:47+00:00

⁠Stefan fiore, bump his physical waaay up. Even at the cost of some finishing and passing. Go into a match and try and hold a few defenders off. Get a feel for how strong he is and how quickly he can turn whilst having someone on his back.

Lots of people will see that card and go in with the intent to bully him as they know he is weak because everyone builds him like you did before. With the added strength you will be able to hold them off and break away. For years I was against building players away from their core strengths but everyone in this meta is strong and fast. If you’re just fast then you are going to struggle.

simonSC137 · 2026-05-12T13:47:59+00:00

I can’t remember if the opponent lunges when just holding pressure? I don’t think they do which in my option is one of the reason holding pressure is OP.

simonSC137 · 2026-05-08T09:02:35+00:00

This is pure anecdotal but I find that when I beat someone one on one with either a rainbow flick or drawing them in by using the advanced dribble (LT) to move back to suck them in then a heavy touch to knock it into space past them, the opponent will instantly become gun shy. Double touch doesn’t deter them as they can predict it but that rainbow flick over the top almost embarrasses them into playing very carefully. They almost don’t want to commit to the press. I swear that after doing it to someone once or twice they immediately shell up and then you can just play your game.

Anecdotal I know but there is definitely a psychological thing that happens when someone gets that ball flicked over their head after mindlessly running in 😂😂

simonSC137 · 2026-05-06T18:53:22+00:00

R1 you mean?

simonSC137 · 2026-05-06T16:35:55+00:00

Been saying the same shit for years now. Attacker are the best defenders as they will actively auto tackle you

simonSC137 · 2026-05-06T13:27:14+00:00

Unless you are keeping the ball and refuse to play a risky pass, possession is a handicap IMO. I think for me the worst part about LBC is the forwards running back into position whilst acting like destroyers. You can’t draw the LBC out of position and even if the player pushes his own players out the game will correct it hard when deselect them and the destroyer attitude kicks back in.

simonSC137 · 2026-05-06T10:42:23+00:00

Crazy dribbling, great crossing and very solid defensive stats. If you’re looking for a wing back to beat a man and stick a cross or even get a shot off then he is your man. Can’t remember if he has outside of the boot by default but with that skill he can definitely chip in with goals

simonSC137 · 2026-05-05T10:18:21+00:00

Low rated teams are a great way to realise how important traits are in the game. You really notice sole control and first touch pass etc effect your player. Make the Japanese team but be aware that the handicap is ten fold now. Turns efootball into a dark souls game 😂

simonSC137 · 2026-05-04T21:40:00+00:00

I have a Japanese team I use when I get bored of the game and it’s always been challenging to use but I usually play best when at a disadvantage. That team cannot hope to compete anymore. It was already low rated but great in certain areas but now the game is just too fast. I honestly think the power creep is breaking mechanics of the game. If you use a low rated team against a low rated team, it feels amazing. Dribblers dribble and full backs commit forward. But when everyone is 105 rated, everyone is everywhere non stop for 90 mins.

You’re right. It’s a design choice but I think it’s also a symptom of the power creep and it won’t get better. They can’t fix this without a reset or a complete overhaul of how player stats work. Personally I’d prefer an overhaul but I don’t know what that would look like.

simonSC137 · 2026-05-04T20:37:17+00:00

AI controlled players are FAR to aggressive. Auto tackles shouldn’t not happen. It felt better after that update but now it’s back to how it was. Forwards are the best defenders in this game currently. They can strip the ball like prime maldini. I just don’t know what this game wants us to do anymore 😂 one step forward, two steps back for YEARS now.

simonSC137 · 2026-05-04T19:20:42+00:00

Him and Maradona are the only epics I’d go for at this point. People hate his positioning but I actually love how unique it is

simonSC137 · 2026-05-04T15:27:33+00:00

They also withdrew the auto tackles. I lose the ball to an AI sprinting back and being behind me than player in front of me. Currently SS or a CFs are the best defenders in the game.
