       So beat an Aubamayang high pressure lobber in the semi final
       with my 4222 team, with a Steven Gerrard hattrick and a
       thunderbolt by Bernard only to get "sorry there has been an
       error connecting to the FUT servers". Back to the 1st round
       again.

       Still trying to win the GC with the 4222 and 41212(2) teams.
       Just can't do it at the moment. Lost a few early on this
       morning, but got into my stride, with 3-0 and 5-0 wins with the
       4222, SIF Srna scoring and Eduardo on fire too this morning. A
       semi to come but I hope I don't get the aftermatch disconnect if
       I win the semi like last time. Still have a 4231 team planned
       and did have something else but I've forget it.

       Lost a final on penalties yesterday after a 4-4 draw, his goals
       were scored on 45, 90, 105 and 120 minutes and 3 of them were
       undefendable crosses and headers and one my goalie saved it
       straight up into the and of course it somehow went into the
       goal. Got to the stage you have to laugh at this shit.
       Tonight, won all but one of the matches I played, losing to 3
       backpost headers in one game.
       The final match of the night played someone with a guest. I
       scored early with IF Stokes, but they scored after about 10
       minutes after a crazy deflection landed at one of their players
       foot in front of goal. One of them shushing and one gangnaming
       was enough. They didn't have another shot, and I scored SIX
       cutbacks when through on goal. Had to be done. Won 9-1. 3 for IF
       Stokes, 2 for IF McFadden, 1 for TOTS Commons, 1 for James
       Morrison, 1 for Inan and 1 for Chedjou.
       Also played a single match against U Mad. A full Brazil team
       TOTS Thiago Silva and co. When 3-1 down the squeky 10 year old
       starts giving it. Was very different after I went 4-3 up and
       held on! Why do I always get them?

       at least you won TWS!
       not sure why but at the moment 90% of my opponents are okay.
       Happy about that as the game is much more enjoyable. Most of teh
       time no replays, unless it was a world class goal. Even got a
       'unlucky mate' message after a 90th minute deflection equalizer.
       If only you were able to play against the sporty gamers out
       there

       To be fair, since I started playing again after me week or so
       break, I've not played too many idiots and spammers. Think they
       are all playing the WC mode.
       This morning was perfect FUT. Good games, played some really
       good stuff as good as I've played for a long long time. Lost a
       couple and won 5, in the process winning the gold cup with the
       41212(2) side which I didn't expect to happen before the 4222
       team. I was absolutely cutting teams apart, patient passing
       moves to pull the oppo's players out of position. IF Stokes and
       IF McFadden were getting goals left right and centre. Opponents
       weren't terrible at all, I was just in the zone I guess! If only
       I could happen more.
       Also in the 7 games I played, all 4 fullbacks from the two teams
       scored from open play, Hubocan even getting one and hitting the
       woodwork twice in the same match, Evra getting a well worked
       strike in the final to put me two up, Sarioglu tormenting TOTS
       John Terry at LCB in a 3412 and SIF Srna with a low rocket.
       The Winners:

       So that's 41212(2) done also the Turkish League and SPL
       completed from the Leagues. Will now be getting a 4231 (2) team
       featuring A-Bundesliga, Liga Adelante and A.N.Other.

       The 4231(2) team just isn't working. Think it's the formation.
       Just do not like it, I don't seem to have enough players in
       dangerous positions. It's just too defensive in FUT but at the
       same time, as I found out when I used it before, it seems the
       worst formation to stop lob spammers. So many get through your
       defensive line. Have won 2 out 4 games with it but they have
       both been penalty shoot outs after a 1-1 draw where I have had
       way more possession but not as many chances as I would normally
       create.
       Another problem is that I don't think SIF Alan is suited to
       playing at striker in this formation. His M/M and not the best
       positioning mean that I often have nobody anywhere near the
       goal.
       I'll stick with the team, but may have to rethink this formation
       and try the players in something else.

       played a lot of 4231 during FUt12, a great combo I had at that
       time was Ibra - Di Natale. worked pretty well. Think a big
       strong striker is essential to have. M/M can work as long as the
       CF has H/M or something simluar

       Soriano at CAM has M/L, so not too bad there. Played another cup
       today and have won 5-1 and 4-2 in the quarters and semi with the
       final still to play, so have been doing much better with it
       today. Just felt like I was playing a bit better today, using
       the CDM's Barkero and Gundogan much better in attack if that
       makes any sense? TOTS Jonatan Soriano is very good but the star
       of the team, today at least, is Paco Montanes at LM. Feels so
       good on the ball and keeps popping up with goals.
       I have 3 in 6 with SIF Alan, and still think he'd be much
       better, even deadly, in a different formation.

       As for the 4222 team, played 44 games, got to 3 finals with it
       but still not won the gold cup with it. Will stick at it because
       it is a fun team to play with, but might change the 3 Liverpool
       players at LCDM, LCAM and LST. Evil though are taking over and
       thinking it might be time to change it to Eto'o, Oscar and
       Ramires or worse still, Aubamayang, Mkhitaryn and Gundogan! LOL!
       If I did that it would be like when Cesc Fabregas said a few
       years back, "If you ever see me in a Chelsea shirt, you have
       permission to kill me!"
