IF Lichsteiner is 120k+ on PC :(

I need Pogba too but he is back up to 71k.

It sucks that Serie A teams consist of at least half of Juventus's players.

Sell all my FUT players now or keep them in case they fix this miserable poo poo game with a patch? Thoughts?

Ligue 1 is good for a relatively cheap team. I use:
41212(2)

Sirigu, Bedimo, Nkoulou, Marquinhos, Aurier, Mavuba, Cabaye, Moutinho, Pastore, Lacazette, Cavani

Luiz/T.Silva are available as more expensive CBs, there're other DM options, but the above is stacked

Maybe learn to play without relying on what worked before? I'm having tons of fun with this patch, games are more tactical and not a mess of through balls back and forth. Also try not to get very mad at video games.

Just went on a five game win streak in seasons, followed by a five game losing streak where my team felt like they just hopped off the short bus the entire time. I don't understand. All I know is this game blows unless I'm winning!

I got him for 37k in the crash and he's already back up to 53k. Not many good LB/RB options in Serie A so he's perfect if that's how you want to build your squad.

I'm using Maggio over Maicon lately and while him being nonrare and 76 rated, almost all his skills are over 70. Really well rounded RB.

Tevez is still pretty cheap at 35k. He was 50k before the crash.

I got him from the special 25k 12 rare pack the other day and he was going for less than 25k on Xbox One.

This is the squad I am finally fully happy with and anything beyond this doesn't really feel necessary, nice, but not needed. No real money was spent making this squad.

Was playing a 4-4-2 for the longest time with Ramsey and Wilshere in the middle and pulled Ozil and Fabregas. I realized buying Matic for like 2k coins was a good idea and playing a 4-1-2-1-2.. which has made me much more dominate now.

Just had a Classic FIFA Experience where I was playing an opponent who had his mic on and was yelling into it the whole time and talking to someone who was there with him. I was gonna mute him but I got up 1-0 early and he got really mad and it got too funny to mute. It was one of those games where nobody can seem to pass to the person they want to on either side so I kept hearing him go WHAT SEE EVERY TIME I GET IT, IT WON'T PASS WHERE I WANT IT, THIS GUY IS SO LUCKY. SEE AND NOW HE JUST GIVES THE BALL BACK TO ME BECAUSE HE'S poo poo.

This guy never thought for a second that maybe I was having issues with the passing also?? Anyway I got a lucky PK and went up 2-1 and I didn't showboat or watch replay or anything but he basically yelled YOU LUCKY human being into the mic for the rest of the time. He was so mad about video games, it was great. He spent half the time explaining to the other person how poo poo I was and how much he was dominating me (I had 52% possession and 1 less shot than him lol)

Basically that, there's literally no way to mute them through the actual console because why would you ever want to turn off someone screaming human being at you?

What he said with the headset is the only easy solution. I also can't believe Sony hasn't patched in a way to mute people yet. On 360 all you had to do was hit the Xbox button and go to their thingy under the "people you met" and hit mute. Took maybe 10 seconds.

You can do that too under "recent players" section of friends but it's a huge loving hassle mid game even pausing so yes the mic in and not put on your head or volume down is the easy solution.

On PS4? I've tried to look under recently players on PS4 and it never populates with any names so I assumed FIFA just somehow didn't register those people in UT. I've tried to look out of curiosity to see what division people were or send "gg' after a really good match but can never find it.

Xbox One, oops. And now that you mention it yeah maybe any H2H games they don't even come up on recent players because of all the rage quits, name calling, etc people do when they are bitter about a games result.

I noticed this year I never once get an angry message saying how I got lucky or any bullshit like that. It's an EA choice.

You can do it on PS4, just the network is slow to populate the list. I've definitely done it.

Press L3 while you're in the kit selection screen to list players, then tap X (or A on Xbox, I think?) twice to mute your opponent (I think the first is to select the player, the second is to mute.) Make sure that you haven't readied up yet because if you do it will not let you click L3.

Well I got bored last night, found a gold buying website and now I have 4 (Evra, IF Chiellini, Barzagli, IF Lichtensteiner) - 1 (De Rossi) - 2 (IF Pogba, Vidal) - 1 (IF Hamsik) - 2 (SIF Tevez, IF Higuain) with Handanovic in goals.

Wondering whether IF Pjanic would make a better CAM than IF Hamsik but I expect more abuse than advice.

are you still playing off-line?

here is some advice, actually get better at playing the game and not trying to game UT, since all your input/output on your squads is based on playing poo poo AI games and low tier on-line games...just a thought
