Just played a guy. And enjoyed the game. I lost 4-2, but the game was lag free, didnt involve ❤️❤️❤️❤️ play, no time wasting, no shushing, no replay watching, just an actual enjoyable game with a decnet human being. Sent him a gg message and he even replied in a civilised manner.

Shock horror, normal people still exist in this game. There is hope for all of us!!

    There are few of us, but we do exist. Considering the rotten community this game has developed, i'd day we're only 1%, though... Sad, but true...

    I had one of these games in divisions last week... was such a great game, brilliant chances at both ends, game play was lag free, nothing untoward going on in game.. like you messaged the guy and he had already beat me too it. Discussed how much we both enjoyed it and wished all games were like that.

    Ended a draw btw ;) 2-2.

    I'm 6-10 atm mate.. one of two extremes going on- either I'm getting absolutely battered (we're talking 4 and 5's :joy:) or I'm the one doing the battering. Had one tight win yesterday, snatching it 2-1 late on, but apart from that no other close games. Had a load of 4-0, 0-4 that sort of thing.

    Finding if i don't concede in the first 30 minutes I'm generally okay, but as soon as they do score and go more defensive can't utilise that pace and my bronze players become completely useless ;)

    Left my phone at work last night so not been able to update my thread, otherwise I'd still be spamming screenshot of those marvellous victories. Haha.

    Best of the bunch had to be tonking a guy with Blanc, Veron, Petit and Van Basten 3-0 with two goals from Billy Sharp then a swift Devante Cole break away.

    That felt good :joy:

    Couldn't recommend it enough mate, is the most fun I've had with Fifa in months.

    It's actually put a lot of things in to perspective for me.. have been in such a slump with the game of late, getting angrier and more frustrated with it, putting pressure on myself to do better and meet unrealistic targets but you know what... if I'm good enough to beat people in the Weekend League with a bronze team then I really have very little to complain about.

    I'm never going to be Top 100 or anything like that, am happy holding Div 1 with the occasional title, so just need to relax and enjoy the game a bit. Play so much better when I can allow myself to do that.

    I've beaten Grannec this year ffs (admittedly on pens after a 2-2 draw in which he absolutely battered me :joy:), to then go lose the very next game to a guy probably in division 4 who can barely string three passes together. This actually happened, could barely believe it.

    It's going to be easier said than done, not letting losses effect me, when I go back to using a stronger side but for now am enjoying the ride and benefitting greatly from it.

    Nice. Defo guna try this. I'm div 1 but never won it. Only ever hold. But wud like to give the old bronze team a try just to see how far I can go with it. Have a couple of red bronze IF too wud be good to use them.

    Oh btw, giving it a go next week using my Reading side... perhaps you could do the same with Bolton. That IF Wheater card is a beast ;)

    Will be interesting to see how the results compare with the bronze side. Though my Reading team is all silver, with Illori being gold at CB thrown in for good measure, their physical stats do not quite match up. The League One side has a lot more pace, especially at full back, LW and ST as well as more favourable workrates at CM.

    Could so with Jem Karacan back but you lads have him atm. He'll run around all day long (not checked him out but I imagine his H/H)! Shocks me that Danny Williams is only a M/M for us really. He tears around the place most games!

    I lost a game 2-1. I'd had a good game and his keeper made 13 saves, a few of them were superb.

    First shot he had on target was 89th minute, followed by a winner in the 92nd :D was a proper gutting result but he sent a message after, conceding he was lucky to win. We exchanged a few messages and added each other.

    Tbf, I've added a few people from weekend league, there are a few good eggs knocking about.

    Saying that, I did have the worst messages I've probably ever had. The kid was vile, before eventually letting on he'd found me on twitter :D a bit shocking and funny at the same time to have a stalker. Whoever the lads parents are, they're failing miserably.

    I did have a Bolton team set up but sold them when potm alii was out.

    Will have to have a gander at who I have but think I will go for the Bolton team. When I had wheater he was brilliant at CB.

    I will go for it next week. Wil be nice to go Bolton spesh if your going reading

    Was funny and a bit creepy at the same time. Sent photos of the messages to a bunch of lads, who all thought the same.

    He did also say something along the lines of 'you cancerous **** ***, go and get **** cancer and die' several times :lol:

    @HelloDearie - thought I'd give you an update bro.

    Signing off tonight at 11-16 - Devante Cole now has four hatricks for me which is 1 more than I got with George Weah in 30 games a few weeks back :smiley: It says a lot for the state of this game really.

    Games are starting to get a bit tougher though. Had a run of three straight wins earlier but then lost four on the bounce and decided to call it quits for the night. All four of the beatings were pretty comprehensive, really good players i just couldnt live with. But on the bright side I did troll some poor lad by slotting a pen past Neuer to make it 3-1 in my favor in the 90th.. you know, just because. Figure it's payback for all the dabs I've had to endure :joy:

    Still an outside chance at reaching gold tomorrow which in all honesty I'll be delighted with - after all since dropping Matty Taylor for Kyel Reid my squad rating dropped to 65, and that's with more silvers on the bench than in my starting 11. Haha.

    Switched to the boxing instead.. you watching the fight tonight?

    I'm encountering more and more, I use weirder teams, and even though I play 5atb I've had a few people recently send me friendly messages after games, which in turn I've responded to. Even played a draft game I lost on pens where the guy sent me a sincere message saying it was a horrible way to lose etc. These people do exist!

    @PelzyWelzy
    Superb. Yes its best to break off when u feel u r in a rut. I have always found i just play worse when im in a mood after losing. Think i can break my way out of it and it never happens. I have only played 8 this weekend, and highly doubt i will play more tomoz. Gotta watch the wanderers get promotion tomorrow.

    The fight was superb. Genuinely thought klitschko had it when he floored joshua, but great bout overall
