I figured some of us are playing it, better to have a place to discuss it without clogging the homepage.

Anyone else on FUT?

by Fluxy Tue 13 Nov - 10:35

I am playing it at the moment. What is your current line up like?

by Marky Tue 13 Nov - 10:41

Got two squads at the moment, one all English, one "Rest of the World" squad;

First:
Rashford - Vardy - Sterling
Lingard - Henderson - Chamberlain
Delph - Stones - Smalling - Trippier
Pickford

Second:
Sinclair - CL Sturridge - TOTW Sancho
Lallana - Wilshere - Milner
Shaw - Maguire - Mee - CL Clyne
Butland

------------

First:
Diego Costa
Asensio - D Silva - Lucas Moura
Saul - Fred
F Luis - T Silva - Marquinhos - D Alves
Neto

Second:
Werner
Coman - Mkhitaryan - Malcom
Tolisso - Lucas Leiva
Grimaldo - Benatia - Glik - Juanfran
Ruffier

by Marky Tue 13 Nov - 10:43

English squad, need to save up for Kane, also wouldn't mind TOTW Pickford

by Fluxy Tue 13 Nov - 10:52

Good two squads!

I only really have a Premiership based side:

Zaha - Lacazette

F. Anderson - Fred - Dembele - Pedro/Shaqiri

Mendy - Bailly - Stones - Walker

Kepa

Subs: Kovavic, Shaqiri/Pedro, Shaw, Lingard, Mignolet, Lozano, Kimpembe

Got about 40k in coins, but not sure where I'd want to invest.

by Marky Tue 13 Nov - 10:57

I've learned quality > quantity, just save up and don't be impulsive like me Laugh

Save up to bring in someone world class, either in CM or upfront ahead of Dembele/Zaha I'd say.

I converted Lingard to CM from CAM, he's been superb, worth considering if you're staying with 4-4-2.

by Fluxy Tue 13 Nov - 11:09

Yeah definitely. My team on the last FIFA was decent, just plugged away on the SBCs and picked up some decent players.

I'm thinking of getting Mahrez and then seeing what I can get around that in CM or up front.

by nadeem2099 Tue 13 Nov - 13:12

Good teams there lads.

I'm waiting for the Black Friday crash to get Bale and Griezmann in. But I'm rocking a serie A team atm, nothing special.

Donnarumma
Hysaj De Vrij Jesus Ghoulam
IF Pellegrini N'Zonzi Bonnaventura
Gomez
Icardi Mandzukic

Also get online pass marky you tightwad! We need to have a match against each other to see who's better.

I don't have time to justify it, playing Fifa like 2 or 3 times a week tops.

by Marky Tue 13 Nov - 13:48

By the way, TOTW Sancho is bae, pricey but awesome. Better than Walcott for that backup RW slot anyway Laugh

by nadeem2099 Tue 13 Nov - 15:35

Do the Rooney sbc marky. He looks a good card

Actual Fifa 19 thread FIFA-19-MLS-SBC-Rewards-85-Rooney-85-Piatti-FUT-Cards

by Marky Tue 13 Nov - 15:51

Interesting

by nadeem2099 Tue 13 Nov - 16:00

You have to buy a starting 11 for all the mls teams and submit them separately into sbc's to get him tho. You do get rewards for doing each team so you could theoretically make your money back from buying all the players.

Don't know how much it'll cost but mls players shouldn't be too expensive.

by Fluxy Tue 13 Nov - 16:11

That sounds ruddy expensive!

by Marky Tue 13 Nov - 16:12

Still talking tens of thousands surely

by nadeem2099 Tue 13 Nov - 16:36

It may seem expensive but you have to take in to account that the Rooney card is a massive upgrade from his 80 normal card. It's like a second/third inform with those stats. If it were on the market I think it would go for about about 100k maybe more. And who knows, you may even pack an icon from the rewards so it's definitely worth doing imo.

by Marky Tue 13 Nov - 16:37

Futwiz tells me his card is 85 rated

by Fluxy Tue 13 Nov - 16:47

Yeah but the Rooney card is untradeable, so once you get him, you may end up getting an icon to replace him anyway laughing

by nadeem2099 Tue 13 Nov - 17:02

Rooney would be a top super sub then Laugh

I wouldn't mind him as a gamechanger off the bench.

Also I'd invest that money in OTW Richarlison fluxy. Dirt cheap atm and I can see him getting at least one more inform soon.

by Marky Tue 13 Nov - 17:05

I thought about TOTW Richarlison, with my Spanish/Brazilian side, but ended up going for the much cheaper Diego Costa.

by nadeem2099 Tue 13 Nov - 17:29

Richarlison looks great tbh. 5 star weak foot, 4 star skills, good pace and strength. Although I prefer him as a winger instead of in strike.

by Marky Tue 13 Nov - 17:51

I fancy a bit of the Hulk TOTW ST, his normal RM card is meh.

by nadeem2099 Tue 13 Nov - 20:33

Maybe if he were 100k cheaper think 200k is too much for him.

by Fernando Tue 13 Nov - 21:28

My side is

--------------De Gea
Walker -- CL Sanchez -- Virgil -- Alonso
----------Kante --- Pogba
---Mahrez ----De Bruyne --- Hazard
----------------POTM Auba

Got IF King, Suso, Demirbay,Valeri,Chilwell on my bench from WL rewards

*Got Vieira in rewards and paid for that squad at the time Actual Fifa 19 thread 3559488474

Had Salah but he's trash

I agree he's too expensive, I just want it Laugh

Started the MLS Squad Builder last night, 13k gone on one and most of another one, of the twenty three squads Laugh

but gold packs rewarded per squad, first pack got me Casillas, all I need now is a time machine...

That's how much i sold him for angel

With Black Friday coming up everyone's price is crashing by a 1/3 angel

by Fluxy Thu 15 Nov - 13:36

What games/modes are you guys playing most regularly?

Divisional Rivals, Squad Battles, online seasons?

by Marky Thu 15 Nov - 13:42

Mostly Squad Battles, bit of Seasons when no opponents available.

As Nadz alluded to, I don't have an online pass at the moment, can't help but feel it would be a waste of money when I don't have enough time to play everything I want to offline Laugh

I did complete The Journey and get my 82 rated Alex Hunter card, but sod using that. And started a Crawley Town career mode I probably won't devote much time to.

by Marky Sat 24 Nov - 17:43

Sold a load of my Spaniards and Brazilians, got a PL side and improved my English side.

Rashford - Kane - Sterling
Lingard - Henderson - Alli
Delph - Stones - Smalling - Trippier
Pickford TOTW

Sinclair - Flashback Sturridge (loan)/Vardy - TOTW Sancho
CL Lallana - Dier - Oxlade-Chamberlain
Shaw - Maguire - Mee - CL Clyne
Butland

Saving for TOTW Chilwell, drop Delph to second team LB.

PL side (that I'm not playing with) is England influenced

Rashford - Kane - Sterling
D Silva - Fred - Kovacic
Robertson - Stones - Sokratis - Bellerin
TOTW Pickford

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 26 Nov - 3:30

I have FUT and generally forget what I’m doing, but Payet and then zone out

by Marky Sun 9 Dec - 13:50

FUT, I signed Ultimate Scream Fellaini to be my DM, rated 80 but ridiculous unrealistic stats like 99 ball control, 91 pace, 95 composure and 90 dribbling!

73k well spent hopefully.

Also, sold TOTW Pickford to buy normal Ederson (who was cheaper), same with TOTW Chilwell for normal Mendy.

by Marky Mon 10 Dec - 1:52

Got Ramos in a pack, doesn't fit my EPL side, so I sold him and have brought in Eriksen, CL Sane, Ultimate Scream Shaqiri, Walker and Davinson Sanchez. All of a sudden my side is looking good. Just need to win the occasional online game now Laugh

He's stats will change every full moon so it'll go from Pace & dribbling to shooting & defending so if get wrong ones he'll drop a fair bit Smile

Just buy Fabinho like everyone f**king else Laugh

by Fluxy Mon 10 Dec - 13:38

I'm saving up for Fabinho. Transformed into a 352 formation now, with Dembele and David Luiz as my midfield combination, until Fabinho is bought or found in a pack!

by Fernando Mon 10 Dec - 14:57

i hate fabinho in every form at Fifa. Changed my side from epl to seria a since prices are sinking

-----------------------Sif Chesney
OTW Cancelo -- CL Koulibaly -- Chiellini -- Alex Sandro
---------------Naingolan -- If Bakayoko
---SIF Suso -----------Zola ----------CL Douglas Costa
----------------------IF Mertens

by Fluxy Mon 10 Dec - 15:08

I have TOTW El Shaarawy, so just sits on the bench for my side.

by Fernando Mon 10 Dec - 15:59

Fairs i have my Weekend League rewards on the bench so got Alexander Arnold,Alisson,SIF Lozano, EL Alonso & Mkhitaryan, IF King & POTM Auba got some other red cards in my club

It's been an easy year of making $$$ fifa wise.

by Marky Mon 10 Dec - 16:30

How did you afford Zola? Laugh

If Fellaini's stats go awry, I'll play Fernandinho again. No biggie.

Current side;

CL Sane - Kane - Sterling/US Shaqiri
D Silva - US Fellaini/Fernandinho - Eriksen
Mendy - CL Stones - D Sanchez - Walker
Ederson

Did the Icon SBC when it was fairly cheap Ok!

EA haven't updated the scream cards in a while through sheer laziness so you may be alright Laugh

by Fluxy Mon 10 Dec - 17:29

I saw the current Icon SBC for five untradeable Icons, looks tempting, although you lose an actual Icon, which would be the only downside.

by Marky Thu 13 Dec - 12:25

Ended in Gold 2 on Rivals this week after a bit of a marathon last night, chose two Mega Packs over the 35k prize, got Donnarumma TOTW which sold for 29k, so after quick selling the chaff that came out of the packs, I made more than 35k and got a load of contracts and fitness things too Actual Fifa 19 thread 3559488474

Was hoping for TOTW Salah or Kante though, hence the original gamble of choosing Mega Packs over money. TOTW Salah is a striker too, instead of winger, so that's gonna be one expensive card.

Anyone wants to consistently beat someone, I'm Wilko1304 on PSN

Xbox users can suck a fat one.

by Fluxy Thu 13 Dec - 12:39

Got the coins for Rivals and completed the Championship SBC and got the 84 rated Curtis Davies.

Moving onto MLS to try and get the Rooney one. Picked up Icardi in a pack for doing one of the SBCs. Also got a TOTT Dabbur card.

by Marky Thu 13 Dec - 12:41

I've done 3 of the 23 MLS ones, can't be arsed to carry on right now Laugh

Dolphin Ziggler wrote:Anyone wants to consistently beat someone, I'm Wilko1304 on PSN

Will do. You can't be any worse than viva the self proclaimed best fifa player ever.

I want that Salah card too marky. Was hoping he'd be going for 700-800k but he's going for about 1.1m which is too expensive for me.

by Marky Wed 2 Jan - 1:17

Did two SBC Icon Loans tonight, no chance I'll afford them properly without throwing real money at it, so will just use Roy Keane and Sol Campbell for 20 online games.

Side currently

CL Sane - Kane - Sterling
D Silva - Keane/US Fellaini - Eriksen
Mendy - CL Stones - Campbell/D Sanchez - Walker
Ederson

Subs: K Schmeichel, Trippier, Sokratis, Fernandinho, Ozil, A Sanchez, Lacazette
