Trying to get this going again. Got an Xbox One a few weeks back, my progress didn't transfer across from 360. I've got very little and I'm not going to put packs on again, this late into the game.

I'm going to start playing this again when I get my internet sorted out next week.

I've put together a cheapish Premier League side on the web app in the meantime...

Lloris
Shawcross Williams Skrtel
Shaqiri Herrera Fernandinho Nasri
Ozil
Falcao Defoe​

So FUT's been broken for loads of people over the last week I believe with various different problems being reported. It was working mostly fine for me except the transfer market shorted me about 4-5k coins profit I should have accumulated from trading players. Rang the fifa help service to see what was going on and a kind lady named Linda compensated me 90k coins for my troubles. Pre-tt-y pleased with that :bg1:

Now it's a matter of Hazard or Aguero :pond:Have Sanchez on the LW but his high/high work rate does my nut in sometimes.

The only downside to having Hazard over Aguero is that Aguero is really the only top 4* striker in the premier league. There's no real alternative for him. Hazard on the other hand is very good, better than Aguero in their respective positions I'd say, but Hazard can be replaced by Sanchez or for me, Sterling, who is an excellent fast skillful 4* winger. If you were to choose between Aguero and Hazard as an LF I'd probably go with the Belgian.

I officially have an addiction to 7.5k packs. EVERY SINGLE TIME I GET 8K COINS I WASTE IT.

Wait til you get to 15k then and FUTDraft it. At least then you can try out some top players, and you get better value for your packs.

Or is the temptation just too big?

Can someone please tell me if there is a great technique for penalty's on this fifa? I miss nearly all of mine when I used to be clinical.

I would, but there isn't FUT draft on iOS. It is horrible and bad and the worst thing ever.

JimJams Good point about the 4* striker, my first choice has been Remy up to this point who's been absolutely beastly with his pace and 4* skills. But when he needs a rest Sturridge takes his place, who is pacey and has a great left foot but when I'm up against tough defences he feels quite limited. Ball rolls, no touch dibbling and that's about it.

So I opted for Aguero in the end. I did have to sell Sanchez, but his productivity in numbers just wasn't all that for me anyway. Great dribbler but I never warmed to how he 'felt' and his positioning often left a lot to be desired. Replaced him with Sterling (who I got rid of before cos of shooting and weak foot) on your recommendation JJ.

Got a strong and formation-versatile squad now, getting shorted by the transfer market was the best thing that could have happened :bg: I'd have had to wait forever to raise up for Aguero.

Keepers: Courtois, Begovic

Defenders: Clyne, Walker, Cahill, Koscielny, Otamendi, Clichy, Moreno

Midfielders: Matic, Schneiderlin, Rooney, Yaya, De Bruyne, Coutinho

Wide men: Willian, Shaqiri, Memphis, Sterling

Strikers: Aguero, Remy, Sturridge

I've got a decent Premier League team currently, solid in division 1 but I haven't cracked the league title yet.

Cech

Nyom
Alderwiereld
Vertonghen
Azpilicueta

Schweinsteiger
Fernandinho
Wilshere

Shaqiri
Depay
Amrabat

In a game yesterday, I was 3-1 down after 60 mins. I'd brought loan Ronaldo on at half-time, and I came back to win 9-4! Ronaldo and Depay got 4 goals each.

Just started, somehow lost in the final of the starter cup, now trading bronze and silver players and trying to get lucky by getting a 71 rated Jamie Vardy.

Somebody literally just bid his buy now price after i bid the start price of 250... 5,200. Can't wait until I get my hands on him.

Are you hell bent on getting Vardy, cos there's a lot better silver strikers out there for less. Wilson of Bournemouth being one.

The point is I want to get Vardy and then sell him for 5k or something so i can build a decent squad. I've given up though, tried multiple times and got outbid.

Just play tournaments and single player seasons. Open 7.5k packs and free packs until you get a decent gold team.

In div 2, got bored of my Prem team so sold it and built a Serie A squad. Much more solid.

Handanovic

Juan Jesus
Miranda
Barzagli

Marchisio
Nainngolan

El Sharaawy
Pereyra
Cuadrado

Dybala
Higuain

Caceres, Kondogbia, Medel, Candreva, Mertens, Insigne, Morata.

Quite content with the squad at the moment so going to try and start saving coins and building a Bundesliga or LA Liga squad. Tough not to give into the draft though, makes a nice change from endless season matches.

I would sell Dybala for Mandzukic. Dybala is like 40k or something.

Got Mandzukic in the reserves. Don't find him or Bacca prolific enough. Balotelli is a good impact sub for me.

Taken me 7 seasons to get to Div 4 with near enough the same team from Div 7, with some rotations. Rondon is caning in the goals for me, thinks he's got 50. Wondering whether I should start to strengthen but I keep wasting my money on the draft even though IM SO SHIT AT IT. It is literally the most frustrating game mode of FIFA I've ever played.

Bagged 85 rated in form Aduriz from a draft pack last night. Should fetch around 50K. Won the first two then lost on pens in the third. The only other half decent player I've had in a pack before was Griezmann who sold for 9K.

I hate the way formations are so restricted on draft. Should be given the full selection to choose from as I never get the one I'm used too in season mode (352).

In FIFA 15, I got TOTS Otamendi, who was 400-500k at the time, in a 5k pack. But it was a free pack. :(

Firstly brought the upgraded Auba but he was awful kept missing easy chances then sold him went for the downgraded one and he's hit 27 in 28. Any recommendations to improve? I'm currently in Div 2 but keep swapping between 1 and 2. I'm thinking Alaba.

I'm currently on iOS, which has no draft and the gameplay is worse in general. There are also a lot of small features missing, like searching for a player by name. There are also no legends or loans. I'm thinking of switching to Xbox, but FIFA would be pretty much the only thing I play. Would it be worth it?
