Did get a few games in last night only 6
done the offline draft on pro as i got a token in my deluxe
pack, 5-1 & 6-1 in the first 2 handy rounds then got Juve and
was 1 down by 8mins thought shit but got 3 quick goals and ended
winning 7-1, bet PSG in the final 3-1 got 1 jumbo and 2 premium
packs
Have to say really liked Cavani 11 goals in those four offline
games
Switched to seasons for the last 2 lost first on 2-1 to a 70 odd
chem team with 3 loan legands Carlos, Matthaus and Inzagi :o
Won the second 7-1 Perotti getting 4 boy oh boy what a player,
have to say not getting much out of my striker in the 3-4-2-1
more coming from the 2 wide forwards.
Did also play 6 games of clubs winning 5 drawing 1 leaving us
near div 6 8) a long way to get back into the top 200 clubs
like last year.

Had my first 6 games. Started in draft using my free token. Got
to the semi final but lost to Aubameyang. My fault though, not
running and lobs. Got nothing decent in the packs, but Atsu
being fast and BPL went for over 2k. Would have been very
annoyed to spend 15k, get to the semi and get what i got.
In the Gold Cup, won both games easily. As I expected, people
still trying to lob and sprint straight through.
The seasons game however showed where the main problem i can see
for this game will come from. Ridiculous high pressure, almost
certainly has everyone set on aggressive interceptions. Was a
bit stupid how his pacey wingers were able to kill the ball
stone dead out of nowhere. Also spammed crosses like it was 14
again to Giroud. One i get better maybe it'll be easier, or will
it be widespread and they get better at doing it?

Benat and Al Soma are the best two players so far. Benat scored
a 30 yarder and 35 yard free kick in my last match. He also has
excellent passes up his sleeve. Al Soma is like a budget Ibra.
Destroyed the guys defence and grabbed a couple of decent
strikes in the same match.

Yeah TWS - one game (could've been the last one of the Draft)
the high pressure was insane. Was tricky not to get caught in
possession, but it still feels like the it's not sustainable for
the 90 minutes - or less effective in the last quarter of the
match. Could quite possibly have been the reason why we got a
late winner.
Come to think of it - there were a few of those. Almost like
'patience paid off' if the opponent is continuously sprinting
all over the place. Probably does need to be looked at, e.g.
high pressure = effectively continuous sprinting, so recovery
should be slower?

Ah .. Free kicks - interesting you scored 2 in a game.
Personally, I've took 2 yesterday - scored both. Both were
driven - the long one from Hernanes and a 32-yd one with
Ronaldo.
From memory, have only conceded 1 & did play against someone who
probably had 3/4 of them from good positions. Fortunately he
sucked at them hopelessly ballooning all of them.
Wonder if this is going to be a bit too easy to slot them home.

Free kicks seem exactly the same as 15. Absolutely no change at
all.

Picked up my first two division championships.
It took me 6 games to get out of division 10 with my pack only,
low chem, starter pack. and 7 games to clinch the div 9 title
with two bronze teams I build. record 7-5-1.
Record looks better then I feel I'm playing, at least I
remembered how to find the far corner :D
my verdict so far:
Good
-matchmaking; played 11 games against opponents with about the
same squad-rating, mostly some gold players in the mix but also
low chem bronze defenders
-good passing and crossing is really difficult.
-defending is difficult, strenght>pace (atm ::))
-playerinstruction
Bad
-random defending screw-ups (bad touches, keepers suddenly
rushing out)
-quicktactics (were did they go?)
-players not responding,
Ugly
-referee, sometimes I had an Aussie rules referee, tackles from
behind when I'm holding up the ball without a problem and
sometimes for looking you already got booked,and such easy
penalties
(got 4 against and hold them all!!! :o 8))
In the middle of building two teams for div 8. one is with that
bronze IF RM, prices are great for bronze players ;D

I've reached my first Gold Cup final of 16 with 7-0, 1-0 and 2-1
wins. Apart from the first match, two tough battles.

Interesting thoughts Beuk. Really am liking a lot of aspects to
the game play at the moment. But, do realise that nothing is
perfect & there are some frustrating aspects at times.
Nice TWS - does seem like some very tight games at times.
[hr]
Bit of a shake up around teams today. Sold off a bunch, bought
Neymar. Later in the evening, we sold off a few more, and bought
Tevez. Was late but played the one game with Tevez ... simply
put - he's a monster! Felt amazing in-game.
Diego Costa has been very good. Kinda what he kept doing to us
in '15, we managed to do now with him. He ended with 16 in 17
games with 8 assists - but has now been sold off. The big guys
feel better, but that low balance stat still makes it hard, not
to feel a little too clumsy. Has shown great strength at times &
will use him again later.
