Just noticed that online seasons is way better for me, in terms of server lag and connection. I have no lags whatsoever in online seasons, but in fut champs there is this 1 sec input lag delay.

pisses me off so much -_-

How good is MOTM Casemiro? Does he add anything offensively?

In my 4-3-3 (4) I have 4 CMs (since I rotate between 2 XIs): Kroos, SIF Iborra, SIF N'Zonzi and IF Franco Vázquez. I've been wanting to drop the latter one for some time now because his defensive qualities aren't as good as I'd like them to be. I've been planning on getting Modric for some time, but his price on PC has been fixed to 130k (before xmas it was half of that...), which seems like a silly overpay, so I'm considering getting Casemiro instead. I don't care about pace on my midfielders, just want them to be well rounded and be solid defensively while at the same time providing offensive support, with goals, assists, build up play, coming in from behind when I hold the ball, etc.

In any case it's not going to happen soon though, I'm completely broke after buying SIF Carrasco and TIF Isco :D


Only just saw this :wallbash:

Casemiro is good, I used a shadow card on him to speed him up a bit and he was alright, I much preferred the IF Kovacic though, if you haven't tried him you should give him a go, was only 26k on xbox. Definitely wouldn't pay 130k for modric, very underwhelming for me.

Did you try the IF Kovacic yet?

Think I'm going with this:



No doubt will change my mind between now and tomorrow though :/

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give Kovacic a shot. He's currently 45-50k on PC, I'll probably sign him after the WL because I'm currently broke :D

I actually bougt a few Kovacic's back when his IF was released, and sold them for 4-5k profit... but I never tried the guy because his defensive stats didn't seem great, so he wasn't as well rounded as I like my midfielders to be (and that's the problem I have with Franco Vázquez). Now I see he has been upgraded... damn, should have kept him :D

What chemistry style did you use on him? My first thought was Sentinel, but that seems like a bit wasted on him... Backbone or Powehouse seem better I think? I don't think I need any more pace on him.

I used powerhouse on him. Otherwise his sliding/standing tackle is shite.

If you like well rounded midefielders you need to hop to a PL team, kante and gueye look monstrously well rounded.

Well SIF Iborra and N'Zonzi are pretty well rounded. As long as the physical, passing, dribbling and defending is good and balanced, I'm ok. Don't really care too much for pace on CM.

I'm a bit put off by the fact that 90% of the players use one (no hipster, just don't want to make things boring), but I will make a PL team eventually, I guess. Want to do one properly though and use actual players instead of running donkeys. Fernandinho was one of the few players I liked out of the team I improvised in the PL-only WL. Will ofc use Kanté as well.

But now I still need to finish my Liga squad first.

Currently looks like this:




Remaining Objectives:

TOTGS Varane to replace his regular card (300k)
Griezmann to replace Bakambu (300k), unless some good IF pops up as an alternative.
A replacement for Franco Vázquez (I'll give Kovacic a shot, that's 45-50k)
Bale to replace Iñaki Williams (800-900k), unless a good IF pops up as an alternative.
A better LW to replace Piatti (guess I'll have to wait for an IF)

I'd also be looking forward to cards like SIF Marcelo, IF Carvajal, SIF Filipe Luis, SIF Diego López, etc. as I'd be happy upgrading those cards, even though I'm very satisfied with them so far. IF MArcelo and IF Filipe Luis are 500k and 300k respectively on PC, which is far from worth it imo.

Honestly don't know how your midfield doesn't get overrun with only 62 and 58 pace there. I'd get destroyed every game. :lol:

And the prices really are insane on pc, 800k for bale is robbery. :mellow:
