I was thinking about doing ronaldo potm but have also been looking at Vieira or Maldini or Cantona to grind out and upgrade my team. Any suggestions?

    PIM Henry is amazing. Doesnt have 5*SM but his shooting and unique animations make the game so much more. There are many CBs with similiar or even better stats than Maldini.

    You can’t go wrong with Cantona. Very unique.

    None, there's better players under 350k for all of them

    Vieira, Maldini and Cantona are the only icons I am doing, finished Vieira already and currently on Maldini.

    If you only want to focus on one then I would say Vieira, out of all the PIM SBCs, he’s the only one that’s at or close to the best in slot for his position.

    Complete CR7 if you can. When you compare the prices his POTM is best value for money. From scratch he will cost you 650k, but if you can even get one of the 2 big SBC done with fodder he will drop below 500k. Thats great value.

    I completed his card yesterday.... 'crafted for free' ;)

    I know, i used up tons of fodder but early indication for me is that he isn't too far of his TOTY which i used for about 100 games.

    Vieira. He's helped me link many players to try, albeit with 8 chem, and he's one of the best in his position so that's one position locked for you for the remaining fut22.

    Cheers, will probably do Ronaldo and Vieira once I complete some more icon swaps. Hopefully and upgrade sbc comes out too as that would help too 😂

    I tend to operate on a lower stratosphere to most on here but I have been really pleased with Rooney since I did him. He's clinical

    I’m tempted by Rooney..I used him in draft and he was a lot of fun. Like a bull in a china shop kind of fun.

    Lol just no.

    Fred is H/H, he's better as a b2b and not a stayback CDM. Plus the way he plays is similar to Kante, Vieira is a different type of player.

    I don't think Vieira is worth the coins, there's a few that comes close to his level and don't cost much at all, but nobody is better than Vieira in that mould.

    H/H doesn't mean box to box if you tell them to stay back, Fred can't shoot yet is 90-99 in every important area

    Like you said, a Kante type DM, juiced up, will win every tackle and get to every pass to intercept it

    Doesn't have the long legs of big pat but as a stay back DM he's one of the best you can get for a fraction of the cost

    All three in my squad & if I had to choose one to keep it'd be Vieira & that's just because he's a 6'4" midfielder.

    Don't bother with Maldini. Not as good as previous years imo.

    I can only warn you that this is one of the worst ever PIM Vieira in UT history

    Tots Sangare is basically Vieira with bad links. Monster of a card if you can fit him in.

    No, the reason H/H is not ideal for a stayback CDM is that even with instructions, the way they position themselves is still higher up the pitch than someone with M/H that has the same instruction.

    With players like FS Tchou or PIM Petit, they have some saving grace in that while they're H/H, they are at least very physically dominant, so even if they have to chase down an attacker from behind, they can still knock them off balance. With Fred, when the attacker get their body in the way, he can't really do that much since he's small.

    Is Fred a good CDM? Of course, but he isn't a top tier stayback CDM, his aggression and tackling are excellent, but he doesn't shield the backline nearly as well as someone with a better workrate.

    Now a follow up question: is Vieira good at CB? I packed Alaba today and he looks like a cracked CDM

    Have u used big pat??

    He just decapulates attackers for fun

    Intercepts with his 8 legs 🐙

    His long passes are homing missiles

    N his distant shots are 🚀

    He wins all aerial duels

    Tell me one quality besides fast turning that Fred has

    😤

    I hv said it before also,,Vieira will b wasted as CB,,a CDM's job is to prevent attack from reaching the back line n he is best in that business

    Just as an example,I've never conceded <1.5 goals/game in WL,,but this week I did n it was a debut tourney for Vieira,, now m not saying it's all cause of him,but he was a definite factor involved
