       Good review Glad. Have been hesitant to use Cillessen but may
       just do so now :D.
       Cuz - can't comment on them bronzes (nothing new here :D) ...
       Erkin is definitely a good one! Did get some positive results
       from 451 at the start - was actually very potent! Like you say,
       that CM will just never stay back ::).
       Not had much playing time with Bundes players as yet, but the 2
       non-rare golds midfielders we used - Trochowski & Arnold - were
       good too. Both are definitely more attacking CM's with their
       long shots stats - better on Arnold. Arnold is bigger but his
       WR's for that CM slot won't be the best.
       [hr]
       What I have been trying to incorporate in our teams, is a higher
       balance stat. Anything over 1.78m tall must have 70+ balance.
       This is obviously for the midfield and forwards. Likes of
       Bonaventura (1.80m with 76 balance) Parolo (1.86 / 71) Pjanic
       (1.80 / 78) and the favourite CAM so far - Hernanes (1.80 / 78).
       These all feel better as they have higher dribbling/ball control
       stats, together with great passing stats too.
       Something like this, together with trying to get a 'balance' in
       the team, seems far more important now. Tried Reus-Robben as
       strikers with Muller behind them (supposed to Thiago but needed
       the chem for Reus). Muller outshone both 'strikers' - they felt
       weak, shooting was off, blha blah. Maybe the 7 chem is just not
       enough, or - personally my thought - the balance of the team was
       off and led to them feeling worse, whilst expecting plenty from
       the expensive/high-rated players.
       Even moving them to a 3421 front line did nothing. Out the club
       they went & will have to try them again when we look at a 433
       variant again.

       Interesting, Kiwi. I remember on 13, balance was a key stat I
       looked at and I've been doing it with these players too. Not so
       much the 1st stat I look at or judge by but certainly if they
       have high balance, I know they'll feel good to use. That said,
       if they have poor balance but good stats elsewhere, I'll ignore
       it.
       Marin has excellent balance btw, I think it's his best stat
       maybe.
       I just now built a bronze team based on long shot beastiness!
       Total cost of oooo, 2k tops. Couple CDM-CM cards will double
       that, lol. This is one of the things I love about bronzes, top
       players at rock bottom prices, good for trying stuff. Not that
       you'd ever find a game in the bronze cup, Kiwi...

       Will be an interesting exercise in pacelessness and also the
       4312. Also, weird unbalanced WRs.
       CAM and L/RCMs have long shot stats in the 80s, which is
       stupendous at this level. CMs also have appropriate inside
       foots.
       Ouedraogo and Seidl were immense on 13. Could've have had
       Sikorski, who was too, but he looks a bit rubbish this year.

       @ Cuz: I liked Kruse a lot in the demo. Seems like a all
       balanced player, very well suited for the Striker position in
       451 or CF in 4411.
       @ Cuz II: ah those bronse teams! Since I had so many
       difficulties in finding a game in FUT15 I more or less quited.
       Especially since whenever you finally got connected to an
       opponent in 95% of all cases you were staring into the face of
       an over-paced (is that even possible?) MLS team.
       @ Cuz III:Quadrago is now a striker????? Wow....
       @ all  ;D: never looked that much at balance but will have a
       second look at it. It does make sense what you guys are saying

       Ouedraogo was a striker in UT13, a really good one. Look forward
       to seeing what he's like now, he has similar stats to then.
       Noticed the other day that Kruse is left footed, which would
       make him an excellent RCAM in that 451. Just need to save a ton
       of coins for Muller now then....
       I don't have too much trouble with the wingers holding back in
       451. I think mainly because I use the full backs on the overlap
       into the channel and then the 2 mids on that side sort of hold
       the ball and work each other into the space. I'd quite like it
       if the wide men had their strong foot on the inside because with
       the possession I work on the flanks, I get them coming inside a
       fair bit. CAM and full back can draw defenders and create space
       there for a run in and shot. Always concious of being on the
       weak foot tho so I tend to delay and faff about before shooting
       with them, hence not too many goals from there.
       That CM thing, I've wondered whether using a pair of CAMs with
       defensive strengths and high defensive WR in combination with
       attacking CM/full backs/wide mids would make for a useful set
       up....
       I remember Tevez being an almighty LCAM back on 12, I think it
       was.

       Not really in a position to post pictures of teams at the
       moment, will try to update later.  But I have two teams and this
       is how they line up (normally)
       Serie A 4231
       Morata
       Felipe Anderson-Hernanes-Candreva
       Allan-Felipe Melo
       Radu-Jesus-Mauricio-Florenzi
       Lopez
       Quick review:  Enjoying the formation, this has been my go to
       team in ascent through divisions and working well so far.
       Hernanes is clubs top scorer and despite lack of pace always
       finds the position to score.   Special mention for De Guzman who
       is backup CAM who is an excellent deputy and scored couple fks
       as well.   Really enjoy Anderson and Candreva, very good players
       on the wing.   Lopez is excellent in goals too, really good.
       Upgrades:  Probably part with coins for Alex Sandro at LB and
       have urge to get Higuain into the team.  Although also keen to
       get Guarin into the CDM position too.   Not too mention Miranda
       or Barzagli at the back, Lichsteiner at RB.
       2nd team:
       Primeira Liga 433 (4)
       Varela-Aboubakar-Carillo
       Andre (IF)-Taarabt-Herrerra
       Jefferson-Indi-Maicon-Perreira
       Julio Cesar
       Quick Review:  surprised me by how good this lot are.  Aboubakar
       is for want of a better word... a beast.   IF Andre, my first
       and only IF so far, is class, dictates the midfield and just an
       all round good player for only 13k.   Julio Cesar has been
       pretty exceptional too.   Needless to say the super fast wingers
       have also been pretty good thus far.   Also got some good backup
       players.  Slimani up front is a unit, he's huge and good in the
       air.   Pizzi, the backup CAM is a solid player too.   Never used
       to be a big fan of 433 but seems to work really well with this
       setup, plenty of passing options and always carrys a threat.
       Upgrades:  not much to be done at the moment but rumours of an
       IF Slimani who apparently got a hat-trick at weekend would be a
       card i'd have to get.

       funny Eric I have just build a similar team:

       IF Slimani is almost a certainty , shame for Jefferson as he got
       3 assists in that game. Those shooting stats on Jefferson are
       insane. Will try this team next week.

       Very nice Glad.   I build my portugese team to replace my very
       first team which was a super lig one.  Wasnt sure what to expect
       from them in seasons but they won something like 4 of first 5
       games I used them in.
       I think you will like IF Andre, feels like a good IF lively in
       the midfield, good tackles and accurate passing.   He's a fav
       already.   I looked at IF Jonas but way too expensive at 100k.
       Why no Aboubakar?   I got Slimani as my backup striker and he's
       fun to use, bit like Mandzukic in that he wins most headers.
       Totally different from past Fifa's when the defenders won every
       header from goal kicks.   I'll def have to get his IF assuming
       it comes.   Hopefully be reasonably priced if the TOTW includes
       Aguero (which it will)
       If your GK doesn't cut it be sure to give Cesar a go, he's been
       really good for me.  Same with CB's, have found Maicon to be
       really good as well.
       I need to try Imbula too, for some reason I didn't pick him up
       when assembling the team.

       ouch, indeed, saw that they adjusted teh pricing of Jonas to
       100K  ::). Big chance that he will get an SIF, but I didn't find
       his upgrade that appealing:+ 2 shooting, +2 finishing only some
       nice physics upgrade. Not worth 100K at least IMO
       Did you had alook Danilo Pereiro? Looks like a great CDM (1,88
       high, M/H workrates)

       I will have a look aboubakar

       Hadn't noticed that guy yet.  As I'm using 433 (4) i've got 2 CM
       spots and 1 CAM.   So for the CM spots I've got IF Andre,
       Herrera, Mario (has nice stats) and Carvalho.    Nice physical
       stats on that player, i imagine will be quite similar to
       Carvalho but i will look into it.   Not used Carvalho much yet
       to have an opinion on his abilities.

       I've to build a new team later, already have IF Andre, IF
       Slimani hopefully will be cheap, plus there's bound to be a
       winger from an obscure nation in the Portuguese league, or a
       small club with a random gold player in that league as well.
