My Dutch Silver Squad:



General suggestions are welcome on improvements to the team.

Anyone got some Advice for the other CB? I tried IF Zwaansvike but he was just too slow.

The midfield looks a bit meehh put Fabs in their and Antonis is a 4 star skiller last time i checked but beware all his other stats are rubbish tho and Isaka Cernak has 81 pace which may come in handy

This weeks TOTW, just wish Og played an awesome game before leaving

Got into a manager mode with Swansea. Just finished my first season, on Legendary, finished 2nd to United. UCL group has Bayern AND Inter. FML :lol:

Squad atm:


Velthuizen 81
Beck 77
Bocchetti 80
Forlin 77
Navarro 76
Fernandtank 80
Drincic 77
Kasaev 80
Guberti 76
Sinclair 76
Saviola 79

Can't wait to pre-order FIFA13 Ultimate Edition. OzGameShop's got the normal one for $68 (great value), and for $5 extra, you can get the Ultimate edition that entitles you to TWENTY-FOUR GOLD PACKS =p~ =p~ =p~

Saying that, I know OzGameShop is dirt cheap, but does anyone know where I can preorder for cheaper than $73?

remember these will be the bad gold packs with only 1 rare and you will get 1 per week, still worth more than $5 but not amazing.

I think I just jizzed everywhere
$73 is fucking cheap!! Eb games it's like $120 or more for ultimate edition

I never buy packs simply because I know the chances of getting something decent is minimal. But when 24 are thrusted upon you, I reckon thats a sweet deal. A simple discard as well gets you coins.


OzGameShop is bloody amazing. Did I mention free shipping as well?

Biggest letdown ever. Bought a pack, and I saw De Rossi. Thought to my self "lots of coins here". Turns out he is worth 25k :(

$60 off Amazon but just the regular FIFA 13 not the Ultimate team edition I think

Best ive ever got was hazard worth 6k at the time be happy

I've only opened about 5 gold packs and the best player I've got is Krul.

So I started a new manager mode with Newcastle (EPL). Decided to play on legendary as I wanted a challenge. I started off really well but I'm about 23 or so games in end and I'm in a bit of a form slump. I really don't know what to call it. I've dominated all the games except for one against Chelsea. My record is 8 wins 13 draws and 2 losses. All the stats are in my favor and it's becoming quite frustrating. I've scored the 8th most goals and conceded the least.

I've notice several things in the game which have become far to repetitive. For instance there is only three ways for my opponent to score. One is that they run down the sideline they whip in a cross and 9 times out of ten the comp wins the header. Secondly is how my CB's just disappear. When it comes to little chips and once the comp regains the ball and they are one on one against my keeper and they never miss 1 on 1. The last way they score is through a bumbling effort. Where my players manage to trip and bump into each other in which I have no control of.

This would manage to happen at around the 90th minute giving me no chance to regain the lead. It is very frustrating.

David Villa \:d/ \:d/ and this was from the free packs.

Hopefully my final team:



Got 500k for a back up team, any ideas?

Why such a shit LB? :lol:

You guys take this FUT stuff waaaay too seriously :lol:

Story of my life! Godi hate that. I swear the comp just decides that you should lose in the 90th

Started a manager mode with Spurs - with the aim of making them the new Man City of the EPL. Board and Gameplay is set to Legendary and I'm simming most league games, only playing against the big 4 and cup/UCL.

Into my third season with them - the line-up is as follows:

------------------------Rui Patricio (83)

Walker (80) -- Yanga-Mbiwa (83) -- Agger (85) -- Joao Pereira (81)

-----------------Sandro (83) -------- Belhanda (83)

Bale (88) ----------------- Modric (88) ---------------- Hulk (86)

--------------------------Lewandowski (84)

Depth:
GK - Roberto (81)
CB - Naldo (81)
Wingback - Assou-Ekotto (80)
DM - Javi Garcia (82) , Mulumbu (82), Fernando (81)
AM/Wing - Lennon (83), Martin (85)
ST - Defoe (81)

So as you can see, not really the most-feared squad at the moment - however the depth will let me focus on bringing 1 or 2 top quality players in each window now.

Dzeko... really?

Why not go for Tevez or Aguero, they are heaps better and will link with Pastore.

Anyone been noticing the FUT market slowing down a shit-tonne in the past few days? It's impossible to sell players quickly. :/

I chose Dzeko as I didnt want to have an 88 attack rating. Makes it near impossible to find games.

I've had the same problem as well

Similarly to Vaughn, started a new manager mode, been playing with Swansea. Finished 2nd in the EPL in my first season, made semi of league cup, KOd early in FA Cup.

In about March in 2nd season, coming 3rd, and just KOd Barca in the 1st KO Round of UCL. Difficulty is WC, board as well. Got Juve in the quarter, and Chelsea in the FA Cup semi.

team:

and you have no control over it at all. It happens way to much.
It happened once again. After some fantastic form including a three nil drubbing against the Spurs. I played the gunners and lost in the 90th minute to a very sloppy goal. Defenders bumping into each other and a stupid rebound. It is so frustrating.

I'd keep Guberti - I had him in a previous save and towards the end of the second season his overall was up around the 79-80 mark.

Yeah... surprisingly Dyer has been the disappointing one in the front 4. He dominated last year but ot so much this time around... only 4 goals and 4 assists, whereas Kasaev has 8 and 11, and Guberti 6 and 11.

I didn't realise Kasaev was doing so good... I thought he'd been kinda average, didn't realise he was involved in so many goals :lol:

Yeah Kasaev is tank. I looked at signing him, but he is only 80 :p

Next window I'll be looking at either Dzagoev or James Rodriguez, and then look at getting a solid Wingback to push Walker onto the bench.

Yeah. I'll probably sign a new LB and LW, and put Dyer and Lora on the bench. Depth is important.

If I have any money left I'll go for a DM but dunno if I'll have enough.

Yeah, depth is crucial. Especially with some of the wack scheduling - 2 games in 3 days etc.
