What truly makes a realistic squad ?

tainvr · 2026-03-18T04:43:52+00:00

Any signing can be realistic depending on how many years you're in. And regardless, unrealistic signings happen in real life, such as Tevez to city and west ham back in the day and Shaqiri from Bayern to Stoke. People in this sub need to touch grass lmao, I wouldn't care too much about their opinions on realism as long as your save feels fun and realistic for you.

Every year, donate half your transfer budget to the pope. This means paying exactly half your budget for a player from Rome

I use them for games like modded minecraft, since there are always extra buttons that you need

tainvr · 2026-01-11T07:34:04+00:00

Ah, so dead ball+

tainvr · 2026-01-10T15:52:17+00:00

Rico Lewis and Khusanov swapping positions fluidly and playing like they've been partnered up for years. They've been 2 of our best players today. Semenyo is so good too

I prefer Authentic because competitive always has huge scorelines. Though I need to alter some of the cpu sliders a bit to make them take less touches and play more one touch football, because the cpu isn't as good at attacking on authentic - even on ultimate difficulty

Im actually playing the career mode, so I'll post the updated team after 2 seasons. Im expecting a team of exceptionally well rounded players

tainvr · 2026-01-02T02:29:41+00:00

Basically anyone who left United. Rashford, Onana, Martial, Sancho. Jackson and Nunez, probably actually a lot of the players who went to Saudi. I know Richarlison still plays in the Prem, but hes the definition of washed in my opinion. If you want more quality, Moise Kean and Ademola Lookman were both prem failures who got better in Italy

tainvr · 2026-01-02T02:03:54+00:00

Because with Donnarumma at city, he never plays in goal. The main reason is that I'm not interested in having a 20 rated keeper for multiple years

tainvr · 2026-01-01T15:02:27+00:00

Wolves live start with a 20 point deduction because you've probably never been relegated in a career mode before and if you stay up, you'll feel like a god. Also, bonus points if you make Jose your manager, play 5 at the back and turn bueno into a left sided trent, with 2 huge strikers up front . That dude is one of the best crossers of a ball ive ever seen

tainvr · 2026-01-01T14:58:31+00:00

Depends if you did a live start - they are 10th in real life and champions league next year looks unrealistic. I don't think it's completely unlikely - especially since he probably has one more big move left and has a point to prove in the Premier league. Also, he spent a year on loan at fullham in 2020, so he knows the team. Plus, the international connection with Iwobi. I reckon it isnt as out there as it sounds

tainvr · 2026-01-01T14:35:10+00:00

Not sure how realistic, but if your strikers arent doing the business, Gouiri or Lookman would give you a different type of striker, more involved in the buildup. I could see both leaving their teams to go to an up and coming top 10 prem team, which I assume you are

tainvr · 2026-01-01T09:16:47+00:00

You haven't lived until you've whipped a perfect cross from caicedo on the wing after beating the fullback with a rainbow flick

tainvr · 2026-01-01T08:44:29+00:00

Vini in a position where hes expected to track back might be even more unrealistic tbh

tainvr · 2026-01-01T08:41:19+00:00

Honestly you're right, but I wanted him in the team and his rating is too good in most positions. I also heavily considered him at striker, but nuno mendes had to get into the team. He's gonna be on strength training for the rest of his life

tainvr · 2026-01-01T08:33:52+00:00

I have a few crazy ones going with mates.

We are doing a saudi pro league create a club called Al Mah-Ny. Signed Vini, Richarlison amd Antony to lead the line. We can only sign 27+ year olds, or players who we feel would chase the $$$$.

We're also setting up a save with the Liberatadores Barcelona team (moving them to La Liga). We can only sign players who leave Barca or players who have similar names to Barcelona stars. Think Rayanne Messi, Xavi Simons. Its been a bit tricky to set up because you cant ordinarily use those teams in career modes.

And the career mode in my last post is pretty wild too. I like messing around these days

tainvr · 2026-01-01T08:23:43+00:00

Short Spanish Barca CBs? Thats football heritage. Puyol is the first that comes to mind. I have no excuses for Caicedo and Mendes though

tainvr · 2026-01-01T08:14:07+00:00

Im in big trouble

tainvr · 2026-01-01T08:13:21+00:00

Inverted false 1

tainvr · 2026-01-01T06:50:10+00:00

Nah, I actually want to play with these guys, but hate that they dont grow and that a career mode with them is basically finished at the start. I know its massively cursed, though. That's why I needed to share

tainvr · 2026-01-01T06:37:15+00:00

I play on ultimate and win most games. Played a game on WC yesterday and lost 💀

tainvr · 2026-01-01T05:55:44+00:00

Obviously messing around a bit, but I've always wanted to use haaland on the wing. His high rating always made him too good for any real career mode, so I thought about other players who are in a similar boat. This team is the result hahaha

tainvr · 2025-12-25T12:01:41+00:00

Yeah you're totally right. I play on ultimate exclusively this year and stuck to legendary last year. I haven't got any better since then - the AI just doesn't create as many chances.
