    10-7, not good enough really.

    Came up against the Varane Mendy Neymar Mbappe combination 5 times in a row earlier, how aren’t these people so bored of copying each other’s squads, zzzzzz.

    I got varane and mbappe untradeable. Makes sense to buy the other two.

    From 6-0 to 8-4. Just can't seem to defend tonight, I always get goals but can't defend to save my life it seems. Plus one for the boring teams. I don't think I've played a single team without mbappe.

    Went 4-1 with the one loss I should've won. They were comfortable wins, but I wouldn't say I was dominating. Then I came up against this team. https://futbin.com//21/squad/5034171

    I lost 6-0 and took a break to rethink my life

    Is it just me or is Varane the most annoying player to come up against in the game?

    He is the definition of autoblock but at least Varane is good in real life.

    Joe Gomez on the other hand.....

    12 games in and I'm ditching this 1. Too much lag, can't get into a match where it's not costing me. Punishes those who try to defend rather than leaving it to the AI

    Delay is really bad earlier. Tough as it is. I’m running in the mud while my opponents can glide left and right easily.

    7-8 now. Was 1-5 at the start and it was demoralising

    This weekend seems a lot tougher than last. I think everyone is trying to get packs for TOTY

    Managed to get elite 3 last weekend and now started 5-4 :| Played all week and the gameplay was fine and started playing WL and my players don't want to make runs anymore they just stand still even when i sent them with L1 they don't move. I think it is just one of those weekends again.

    Gold 3 with 3 games left, surprising since I haven’t gotten out of silver since I’ve had this game

    If I had them untradeable I’d use them too, but I wouldn’t buy the others, many other ways of fitting them into the squad without using the same sheep everyone else does, but as long as you enjoy the game it’s all good.

    4-3 last night which was enough to get the icon swap so will move onto friendlies tonight then maybe return to WL on Sunday.

    Strangest gameplay I've had in a while. 1 win was 6-5 against probably the worst opponent I played. I went 6-2 up in the 2nd half and he immediately changed to constant pressure, high depth and my players turned to stone - couldn't pass the ball and my defenders all suddenly had about 12 strength and defensive awareness. Just horrible to play but thankfully I was able to hold him off to win.

    2 losses were against people with the Mendy-Varane-Gomez-Semedo back line with either Pope or Allison in goal and Werner up front. Both just sat on defensive, crowding the box out with players and spamming through balls to Werner. Very frustrating.

    3rd loss probably the stupidest loss I've had all year. Went 3-0 up but didn't relax, tried to keep playing as I had, but basically straight after I scored the third goal the game swung his way big time. Suddenly I couldn't make passes, my players were making poor runs, my defenders were losing challenges, 50/50s etc all the time and he went 4-3 up. I equalised to take it to ET but he scored in the 120th minute. No exaggeration, every single one of his goals was either a direct rebound or the ball kept bouncing to him after every tackle or block until it fell to a player in space for an easy shot at goal. Nothing I could do about any of them.

    Positive news is that I've really got the hang of the 352 and can play against better players now, as long as the game behaves itself.

    2-3. First time I've ever won any of my first 4 games, was 0-2 then 2-2. Probably gives me a harder time for the rest of the weekend now.

    Lost the 5th game 9-1, to somebody who constantly spammed paranormally perfect driven through balls to Mane, with a full celebration every time. I switched to 1 depth drop back at HT just to try and stem the flow, but my players just played exactly the same way. When 7-1 up he subbed on Wamangituka, and still celebrated. Imagine doing that 30 games every weekend, what a life.

    Been weird this weekend, won a couple of games really easy last night, only had an elo of +3 then came up against 3-4 really good opponents in a row, lost to a couple bang average ones too, can’t settle with my team and formation at all.

    Need to win half of my last 8 for G2 which isn’t usually this much of a stress.

    We all had these games. It’s so hard to overcome it.

    9 out of 10 so far, only loss I was 4-3 up in 85th min and gave away two goals before the end of the match, a bit gutted.

    Went back to 41212 narrow and it seems to click very well so far. Still aiming for my first elite, so fingers crossed I’m not gonna choke it.

    Good luck all 👊🏻

    Yeah I've had that kind of thing happen before, but this was the first time literally every goal was a lucky bounce, usually at least one is a 'normal' goal.

    4-1-2-1-2 is what I used as well, really the only formation I actually like using and it seems to fare well against 4-4-2

    4-1 with a new team thanks to my Dutch right side.

    Ditched the team at 5-5, packed HL Hernandez, rejigged, 8-5.

    Good start this morning 10-6, then the kind of capitulation that WL usually brings. 11-10

    True and it also holds up against 4231 for me at the moment. Have been playing 352 for a while with mixed success and tried 442 but that’s not for me. 41212 is always my go to formation when I need to reset and go back to basics.

    Can only get games in today and it’s now 2-10. No way I’m getting the 7 wins I needed. Every game I’m coming up against people far better than me. I might not even worry about the icon token and go back to rivals.

    Do you quit when you’re losing? I find that whenever I quit I get another rough match. Better to rubber and and relax and play another game after, imo.

    Brand new midfield 3 this week - RTTF Wijnaldum, SMS and Rijkaard so looking forward to see how this week goes. Comfortable Gold 1 last weekend but would like to kick on a bit this week,

    J5JfY23.jpg

    Nice to see someone else without Gomez and Varane.

    Pope
    Bellerin
    Gomez
    Varane
    Mendy
    Mbappe
    Kante
    Neymar
    Rashford

    Literally 9/10 games I see this

    Get ready to add Robben and Klaiber to this list. Seeing them more than every other game atm.

    Yes, don't ever quit out, u need to see it through for it to count as a loss in regard to your next oppositions record

    I just got absolutely robbed of gold 1 in my last match.

    Game ended 1-1 at full time

    End of the first half of ET I am attacking in the final third, 3 vs 2 with one minute of injury time and the ref ends it bang on 106 minutes.

    End of the second half, my opponent is in his own half, with one minute of injury time. When the clock hits 122 minutes he launches a massive through ball to his striker and he's clean through on goal to score in the 123rd minute.

    This game is total BS sometimes
