Wish I had never packed R9

Was going along fine with my Serie A team, then today packed R9

In the 12 hours since packing him have won 1 out of 22 Division rivals games. Probably the worst record I have ever had. It is almost like adding him had the same effect the other Ronaldo did when he rejoined Man U

Before I packed him all my shots did not hit the post, my passes did not all go astray, and my defence did not part like the red sea (not all the time anyway).

Well done FIFA, You have probably put me off buying the next edition

    There is a possibility...

    Try going to your previous team without R9 and see what happens.

    Spot on, Man United was tearing it up before CR7 joined. One trophy after another, just crazy.

    Really hoping he leaves this summer, he holding them back

    Must say he wasnt all that for me, mission accomplished so to speak when I managed to buy him for around 6mil mid june and yh of course he "did alright" but nah not like he took me to next level. Remember one wl game he missed sitter late on to get me a win then I lost in et, few games later i was 1 1 in 2nd half, he missed 2 chances bought toty mpabbe on and he got me winner. Sold immediately thought to at least try out eusebio via sbc bit nah bought back pim pele who is way more worth it coins wise. Right now still have 2 mil coins after splashing tonnes on packs as thought well y not.

    Same, can't justify putting on the bench so will make him work, took me a while to get used to the mid and Prime, so I know it will click, just trying to get a player that works with him

    I've found him & Zlatan to be a fun combo to play together. Currently using mid R9 & Shapeshifters Di Natale which is also very good.

    Don't know about this year, but last year thanks to the 85x10, I managed to do R9. and he was just not good.
    Can't find him on the pitch sometimes, and he is not clinical either. 99 CR7 was so much better.

    I got him a 2 years ago he was okay but Dalglish was better. Not every card plays the same way for every player.

    Agree, love to finally have the chance to try him.

    Are you high? Apart from DDG, Ronaldo was United's best player last year. If your a United fan also, then you should pick another sport to contribute to. And save us all from this kind of drivel
