FIFA 12 Ultimate Team

TOTY Nene or Hazard?

Penalties are rarely satisfying when I win, I just feel relieved. Losing on the other hand...

TOTY Nene then IF Hazard as a CM

Been reading it for a bit, I think after a few more matches with my shit 433 team.. I'll sell up my loveys of 4231.. and see what I can build.

Navas is really good, but he doesn't really suit the 4321 as the wingers are coming in a lot.. like strikers.. so Ronaldo really works well with that obviously.. but Navas is more of a winger, will have to use Sanchez RW.

Hmm just had a look through it.. Diarra at CM.. I really do not like that guy much but if he does a job I may have to get him.

Using this for now:

To be honest I get the opposite, I usually play with a team shit at first until I get used to them, so if I start out well with them I usually carry out well. Like with my Bronze BPL team I was struggling to win 5-0 against starter pack teams at first, and now I can pretty much score at will against starter pack teams.

With that said won 6-1 with my MLS team in their debut. 3 goals for Keane, 1 for Henry, 1 for Donavon, 1 for Marquez. Beckham with 3 assists, his passing is ridiculous, don't think I've ever played with someone on UT with 91 passing. Wynne is also ridiculous, he is so fast. But on the goal I conceeded his speed actually fucked me over, when I defend I rarely use contain unless I'm against someone good or in certain situations. So I was going to defend someone and totally just ran around them like a spaz with Wynne. I sent Wynne on goal one time with beckham but he bottled the chance.

Eternal 2, get Reyes.

He is cheap, left footed on the right, and will give you endless moments of joy.

Only three of my first team are NIFs. Handicap, active.

Just tried this team and it played shit. Although it was kind of obvious with the low chem on Ibra, Lavezzi and Falcao.


Probably best if I sell him.

Everyone's backing out.

20 failed attempts. Fuck this, I'm reluctantly trying the tournament.

Going to try IF Llorente in a 4312. Although it might not work with being alongside Falcao and Ozil being the CF.

Ronaldo really is incredible.. was 3-1 down and he scored 3 in 10 minutes to get me infront, then assisted one for Reyes.

I've only played 4 games with this team but won them all.

Better than 10 minutes..

Wow, you really bottled it in the period leading up to & immediately after halftime.

Yeah.. I was in control of the game for 20 minutes, I tackle his player and it runs through to Silva who scores.. from then on it feels like my defenders are all over the place.. my team feels worse.. until the goal I scored then we got momentum back, it's a real bitch that momentum. 2 of his goals were passing across too.

That is momentum, my friend. Once he took the 2-1 lead, you were very lucky to even stay in the game, your team probably ran around like 11 Jordan Hendersons.

Im going 4-3-3. It makes matches so much more fun.

Sort of went like this.

My opponent said..."team like that and u still hold A loool"

Beat him 4-1 in ET, reply along the lines of "Enjoy your pace abusing team. You're welcome."

A few more volleys since then. He's using every weapon in his arsenal. Spending real money, he apparently leaves his house to socialise and therefore doesn't spend real money on a game, blames my parents, I retort saying his only friend is his right hand....we are going places and this is utterly fascinating.

I though they took out holding down the A?

What do you mean? It's how I defend, just press opponents without making defenders miss their targets like spastics. Don't see what's wrong with it, I can't think what else to do.

I defend with A on some occasions where I don't want to commit to a challenge in a dangerous position.

I though you could only have that option for offline?

I done it on Fifa 11 and I just thought they took it out this year.

That was different, like your player would chase there's down and try and take the ball, this one just basically stays off the attacked whilst trying to keep some sort of shield towards your goal, it's different.. I think it's called the "contain button"

Containnnnnnnn

Nooooo...A to contain, not A to tackle the ball.

I don't really know how often I use it, but since I have most of the possession I'm pretty sure I use it mostly against wingplay and in and around the box.

Seriously, how else do people defend. I'd rather not just go around my final third with 'X' to tackle while not being able to lock onto the opponent. Not to mention skills. If they try to pace it, I sort that out the usual way.
