I think the update may have totally screwed over Arsenal. After making it to division four with never getting relegated before the update.. I have yet to get a single point since the update has come out... Probably just in my head but definitely missing the old overpowered Gervinho among others. I'm not sure if Mertesacker's stats have changed but he has seemed alot less affective than before too.
Oxlade Chamberlain still underpowered.

But the main thing that I can't understand is Torres didn't get nerfed enough to even lose a stat point. Still 86 and one of the best strikers in the game. WTF? it's been 2 years since he was in good form. There's got to be a point where they realise he's just not as good a player as he used to be.

LOL at Carroll, Agger, Henderson, Adam and Gerrard given 5 star skills. Must be a Liverpool fan at EA HQ.

You've gotta be joking... Carrol is a klutz with the ball at his feet and Agger is a f$!*ing centreback!

I know it's fucked up! Check for yourself.

was wondering what is everyone's best and worst deals on ultimate team.

My best deal is buying IF Pirlo for 2K and then selling him for 25K.
My worst deal was when i was searching for IF Mertesacker and found one for 50K put a bid on it and then checked my watch list and it turned out to be a non-form. No idea how that happened as i'm 100% certain that it was IF but it wasn't. So basically I lost 49K.

I never have enough coins. Always struggling for contracts and never really get above 1k coins, ever. So the most expensive player I have bought would of been Mata for about 4k...

What division are you in for H2HS. Divi 6 for me.

That's a shame don't you like trading?
BTW was thinking of making a cool hybrid side with ronaldo/messi and eto'o can't think of many players that would link any tips?

:lol: How can you be struggling for cash with the new tourneys? They're basically giving money away for free. I've played only 3-4 tourneys and already been able to buy a few jumbo gold packs + build a whole 80+ EPL side. AND Player values have absolutely plummeted! Suarez 5k, Reina 2k, Sagna 2k... they used to be so much more.

I can never beat my brother in exhibition when he plays with Zenit. Any other team I can beat him by at least two goals, but with Zenit, I can go whoever I want and he still wins.

EA admitted that was an error and I believe if you update again it's been fixed.

U buy packs :shock:, do u trade much?

Opening packs = Fun

Trading = tedious and boring. I don't play FUT so I can make the most money, I just do it because it's fun.

I'm talking with coins, not MS points... don't do that (much) :lol:

No, I do a lot a trading but my profit is minimal because the players I'm trading are just not very expensive players.

In regards to imnofreak's answer: As much as it seems weird, I have abosolutely no contracts. When I play my match and get my 500 coins that pretty much goes straight to buying a shitty bronze pack so I can get like 3 contracts and a few fitness cards. That happens after almost every game. I know I can go buy a gold contract but half* my team is out of contract, EVERY GAME and if I bought for only 1 player it wouldn't be effective.

+ how is it so easy to open Premium Gold Jumbo's? Advanced Cup win = 1900 coins?

Div 4. Got here straight with no relegations so far :D
But I played alot of career mode before I started H2H.
Finding Division 4 suddenly alot harder though, partly because of the update I suspect.

any tips im only on 15k atm

You've probably heard this many times. But buy players on the cheap and sell higher for a profit. But this is what I do and I have around 450K.

The new featured tourneys are just handing out money. I dusted it off the other day and played a bit and was amazed... if you play that one that needs 11 different nationalities, you will get at least 750 coins per game, and then 3500 when finished.

Also - dont buy bronze packs. Ever. Waste of money.

What would you suggest I do then? I have currently 2 squads. An EPL and a Bundesliga team. ATM I have no contracts, no coins and my EPL squad needs contracts?? BTW I have never bought a gold pack in my FUT career, I've just never had enough coins...

Sell one of your teams, get yourself about 3000 coin, buy 12 GOLD contract cards, play two tournaments, and that's about 8k.

Seriously, buying bronze packs is dumb. The only half useful shit you'll get is contracts and fitness, and you're better off buying two gold contracts, getting 13 games on a player, as opposed to spending the same amount for 2-3 bronze contracts that give you like ONE extra game for a player. Everything else in bronze pack is useless (unless you get lucky and get a 94 pace winger or something)

If you are extremely desperate you can buy 78 to 82 normal rated gold cards for 300 coins and then discard for a twenty coin profit. So this is more about quantity. Buying 50 players would give you a 1K profit. You will not make big profits from this but you may be able to save up for contracts.

I recommend when you buy contracts buy gold 200 BIN.
Once you have 1K dabble into the silver market it's a good way to make coins fast.

By Buying 400 coin bronze packs I found that I would always make at least 100 coins form each pack. By selling the players and contracts.

Yeah, but I'd bet my left testicle that nhub just discards everything other than fitness/contract cards.

Some bronze players are incredibly valuable. Especially lower league english players with epic pace.

RE: Your earlier post - Before FIFA came out and I only had access to FUT online, that's what I used to do - buy for 300 and sell for 308 or something. And later, with shiny cards, buy for 600, sell for 624 or whatever. You get the odd bargain too, like a shiny for 350 which you discard for 600+ which helps.

Cheers for the help. In regards to discarding the contents of a bronze pack. I will always put the players up for 200 buy now unless they are like 47 rated and now one in there right mind would buy.

Also, I do the shiny silver coin making tactic. Buy 72 rated + for 250< and then you can sell for like 400 or if no one's buying you can discard for a little profit of like 6 coins. But usually you can get a good profit.

Yea but it is very time consuming but once I had enough coins I gave this method up.

I got bored of my team so decided to build a new one.

Couldn't come up with a theme, but Funky gave me an idea and we built on it to make this team, and I couldn't be happier.

Suarez and Friends FC -



Everybody except Sakho has 80+ pace. Four 90+ too. And just, the hilarity. Can't wait to start playing online with it.
