[Dredz06]

When you next on Dredz i'll give you a game

Ps. Whats been happening with pro clubs wiffer fc - no one seems to be on playing it hardly ???

We was on last night! I've been too fixated with UT to play clubs lately but now ive got the squad i want we'll be playing clubs much more, plus the cup windows open!

What times is everyone usually on at so I can get on and swing some off my sexy crosses in that you love so much

 

[Scutch]

I had RVP and couldn't get on with him either. Also, word of caution with AGUERO, he has a nasty habit of shooting with his left when you've lined up an right-footed shot. I prefer Tevez.

Both Aguero and VP have been great for me thus far.

 

[Si]

When you're through on goal as often as I am you soon realise his flaws.

Budget Premier LW required:

Dempsey - good shot - average speed
Gervinho - fast - average shot

Both have same overall rating.

 

[RDH]

Pace beats all. End.

Ive got Dempsey and he's ok, Gervinho is good though ive played players with him and he left Micah Richards for dust

 

[JJ!]

Assaidi (cheap as chips) and Gerviho both have pace 88 so will pick up one of those two, or both.

Market is slow going tonight. Cant play until my players sell so can get a full team!

 

[Scutch]

Just won an offline tournament - Platinum Trophy on Legendary. Played Real, United, Milan and then Chelsea in the final. Valencia won me the game in the 90th minute. Was relieved and Buffon saved me on countless occasions!

 

[TimR26]

I've just won promotion in Seasons Ultimate Division 2, need to beat Milan for the title.

I've had both. They're both ok at LM but Gervinho doesn't have the first touch to be a good LW. Scrape together enough cash and find an LW Ashley Young (or play one with yellow boot) or... Arshavin. I use him as a replacement now. Pace isn't great but his shot, touch etc makes up for it.

 

[Si]

Got Robben in one of my free packs. Not bad I guess.

 

[bright]

Not bad? Everytime I see him for sale he's up for about 200k. :/

 

[JJ!]

Anyone tried Rooney in midfield? Wondering how well he would work in a 4-3-3. Then again, his defending stats are pretty average.

probably work well as a cam in 4-1-2-1-2 though.

 

[Chapppers11]

Anyone else having issues where the trade pile won't clear?

It's clearing, but then adding really old items that I've sold weeks ago!

 

[Philip.]

My budget German/Russian team is done for now, built on about 5k! Got some real bargains, Bender cost me 300 coins etc.

He works very well as a CAM in a 4-1-2-1-2 yes

His defensive workrate is excellent, as well as his attacking workrate.

 

[Nick172Cup]

Not bad! I'm using the same league as you, just got a few different players. Mine came to just over 8k coins including subs and reserves. Will try and get a picture of the lineup later.

 

[Scutch]

I'm not sure what else I can do with my team now, other than buy some decent reserves for the second bench and replacing Javi Garcia. Could actually do with some defenders, too! I've got 170k in the kitty:

They're all on 9 chemistry except Kompany, which is odd. My Bronze team isn't too bad either, most of them are rares. Don't have a silver team so may look at that.

 

[Nick172Cup]

Also what's the deal with having numerous shiny gold managers? Even if they just sit in the club it still helps with contracts or something?

 

[Scutch]

Apparently so. They stack, so if you get loads with 3% contracts, when you apply the contract cards to a player, the % of games increases accordingly. Same with % team talks for morale etc. Then if you have loads of coaching and fitness staff, their % stacks with performance increasing cards (heading, keeping etc.)

 

[El Marko]

Kompany is only 7 chemistry because hes connected via 2 red lines. Valencia is pretty poor, much prefer Ben Arfa and would of suggested putting Nasri as CAM to get him 9 chem, but you now have Rooney. You cant really improve that team tbh.

Why not try and get ibrahimovic in there? would be a v nice hybrid.

Sweet!
I still need a few more reserves but I will win a few more games with my bronze team first for the coins

Once I win a good stack of coins I will start buying better German players, really want Gomez or Klose.

Ibra's chemistry would be 5 or 6 at best, though? Also, Valencia has been pretty good for me. He's quick (90 pace and strong too) and his crossing has set up a fair few goals. Ben Arfa on the bench with his 5* skills.

 

[JJ!]

Get Vidic is there and kompany will be up to 9.

How is the 4-1-2-1-2 working out? If ea sort my coins out I may go that way. 4-3-3 has been great for attacking, but getting caught out in midfield and defence when up against some pace.

as for the shiny managers - get 10. Any of them, formation does not matter as long as your main manager matches.

Reason why?

10 shiny = 30% on contracts.

If you apply a 28 game contract the player gets 37.

Getting Vidic is fine, but for a few things:

1) He's nowhere near as quick as Chiellini, who is fantastic at getting back and winning the ball when caught out of position.
2) Vidic wouldn't have 9 chemistry with Buffon and Abate, meaning I'd have to sell them both as well.
3) Vidic is 140k.

 

[JJ!]

Didn't realise how slow he was lol! If ea sort my account out I am not sure whether to go premier league or go Spanish. There are some seriously good players in that league to make an awesome 4-1-2-1-2 squad!

Yes.

IF Alba -- Pique -- Ramos -- Dani Alves

------------ Casillas

That ain't a bad back five!

 

[Revels]

Pique is s**t. He does this stupid lunge thing all the time and doesn't get anywhere near it. Then it's too late.

I have Alba - Ramos - Puyol - Juan Fran

Puyol isn't fast but he's strong and you just have to position him right.

150k up atm. But I'm buying 20 packs tomorrow Then I'll buy Alves.

 

[jonzz]

Im bored of UT.

 

[Chapppers11]

Any advice on how I can get my midfield to work?

I've got around 70k in the trade pile so can spend that if need be.

I quite liked Pique in my team before I went mad and sold the entire team.

Im bored of UT.

I've been enjoying the offline side of UT over the past few days. I want to try the tournament which wins you a gold pack, but the difficulty is Ultimate, so I'm not sure how I'd fare in that given winning the Platinum Trophy on Legendary was a slog (four 1-0 wins in a row and backs to the wall defending).

 

[Chapppers11]

 

[Pulsator]

Still need Buffon, Chiellini and Di Natale though

 

[Pulsator]

Can anyone even see that pic I just posted :s lol

 

[Scutch]

Yes. You've got Cassano in a ST role even though he's a CF. Either convert him to a ST with a modifier card or buy a different striker. It'll raise his individual chemistry to 9.
