Gold Cup winning team number 5:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/squads/4160383/
A quick win for this team, taking only 5 games to win it, and
then on the winning run scoring 12 and conceding 0.
Not a formation I often use and rare to start without a big
target man type striker nowadays.
Star man was Darijo Srna. Every year he is the best all round
full back you can possibly use, and this year is no exception.
The guy is fantastic. Attack, defence, passing shooting, free
kicks, corners, penalties. The guy does everything. Will again
be the best full back I use all year. I have no doubts about
that at all.
The strike force was ok. Bifouma is pace, but IF Charles is a
strange one. Got a hattrick but did little else, but still
enjoyed him strangely enough!
Taison was the main attacking threat and top scorer with 4
goals. A steal at 1000 coins. Rafinha was good at LCAM, but I
suspect would be better in a different formation. Fred and
Danilo were good as CDM and both popped up with a goal. Danilo
was a true CDM while Fred roamed forward more to good effect.
The defence was solid despite all four having high attacking
work rate which did worry me initially. Amavi was a 75 non rare
350 coin player and is average. Kaboul iis always good on FUT
and no exception this year. IF Rakitskyi did what he had to do
well, but wasn't really massively tested. IF Pantilimon seemed
very good in goal and saved everything that came his way. His
height helps him.
A nice team with the goals spread around seven players in the
four matches. Got to come up with another team now!

Gold Cup winners number 6:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/squads/4273852/
The second team so far to win it first go. Not a great team
though. The defence felt weak and didn't feel strong of secure
in the air. Paulo Oliveira is decent but the defence was saved
on a number of occasions by Julio Cesar in goal, especially in
the semi final where he was superb.
The two central midfielders, Tiago and Manuel Fernandes were
both very good but would probably be best not playing together
in a two. Some one bigger with a more physical presence would be
great with the two of them in a three.
The two wide midfielders were IF Musa and the silver Zhang
Chengdong. Zhang was ok, didn't really do much apart from
getting the opening goal in the final from a header. IF Musa is
very quick, and would be better as a winger of LF. The way FUT
works though, he did ok defensively despite terrible defensive
stats, but of course due to his 94 pace!
In attack, Manucho was pretty bad and didn't really get a sniff
of goal in the four games. He was ok at holding the ball up but
not one I'll use again. Doumbia is still stupidly OP this year.
He's had a drop of 3 in his rating but have made him a H/L work
rate. He seems perfectly positioned at all times, will pop up on
the end of everything, normally unmarked. And he finishes
everything! I think the thing with him is that people crap
themselves when he's on the pitch and he just causes mass panic.
And when he scores which was every game, people just allow
themselves to become frustrated and that is the end of you in
fifa. Only four matches but he is so so OP that it's stupid
really.

Gold Cup Winners number 7:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/squads/4686982/
Finally managed to win it with my remaining starter team.
Haven't really used it much recently but decided to give them
another run out and managed to win it after almost 120 matches
with them!
Some decent players in there. Marco Matias is a decent winger
with decent stats for someone not playing in the countries top
division. All the Eredivisie players are good. I hated TOTS
Ziyech on 15. He just didn't contribute anything. This time he
was involved in everything, scored a load of goals and is my top
assister. He always popped up in the box in dangerous positions.
Locadia assisted a lot of goals for him and scored 49 himself,
but sometimes he went missing. Decent.
El Ghazi is a big strong winger. 4* skills and weakfoot and
enjoyable to use. Vejinovic scored a decent amount and scored a
lot of free kicks.
Lopez and Damia weren't great. Lopez didn't do much and Damia
felt awful on the ball and has suspect distribution.
All the Portuguese league players were pretty average. Oliviera
was the best at CB and RB Jaoa Pereira is ok.

Thanks. Yeah, my luck in finals has been good this year so far.
After that 17 final defeats without winning one in Fifa 15 where
the most ridiculous stuff would often happen, I've done better
than I expected so far. If I keep up my recent success rate,
there'll be a lot more red on the list than black!

This is really impressive stuff mate. Love the hybrid challenge
you've set yourself, good to know there's some proper creative
teams being showcased in the cup.
My feed is constantly 'TWS has won a major tournament', lol.

Managed to win the El Clasico tournament that is on this weekend
first attempt with this team:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/squads/4837735/
A pretty suspect defence, but IF Bruno in the middle CM spot was
really good. Excellent passing and very good tackling, coupled
with M/H work rate. Perfect player for the role.
The other CM's were decent, with Oguzhan Ozyakup a very useful
non rare.
The attack was dangerous. Pato seems very good again, not quite
the level of old, but still good enough to be a constant threat.
Michel Bastos is as one footed as ever but useful still, and on
the right, Gokhan Tore showed why he is pain in the neck to
defend against whenever I face him. He put away a fantastic
first time shot into the top corner to level at 1-1 in the
final.
Can't see myself using any of the Madrid or Barcelona players
again. Sergi Roberto was good, and Adriano would be handy to
link a hybrid. Navas in goal was thankfully better than last
year!

Gold Cup number 8:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/squads/4940089/
Took me a while to get used this team, and struggled to score
initially.
Paloschi was decent up front, put away some good shots, but just
felt he was missing something. Behind him was Mane. He scores 3
in his first 25 games and 8 in his next 4! Decent player but
again, he is missing something. Pepe on the right was limited
and didn't do much. On the left, Gervinho was a danger but
finishing lets him down. His 4* skills have gone this year as
well.
Wanyama is a rock as the defensive half of the midfield. Doesn't
contribute much attacking wise but is excellent defensively.
Didn't score once in 29 games, so no repeat of his 25 yard
header that caused an instant rage quit last year! IF Steven
Davis got up and down well, but only scored once. He struggles
to finish, but did get a number of assists and enjoyed using
him.
The defence was strong though. Ashley Cole is a shadow of his
former self but still pretty decent really. Did some good work
with Gervinho. IF Verhaegh is excellent and was more dangerous
in attack than Pepe in front of him whilst still being good in
defence. Also excellent with penalties.
The centre back pairing of Klavan (another decent one for the
non rare thread) and the underused but excellent Howedes made
this a strong team defensively. I don't understand why he never
gets used! And IF Fahrmann is very good in goal. Recommended.

Latest winning team, this time the Movember Cup:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/squads/5126410/
Crossed a good few of the more unused nationalities with this,
Togo, Korea, Canada and Albania done. Also surprisingly the
first Argentinian used as well in the 10th cup win. Frosinone
also done in Serie A.
An ok team. Didn't really do much with IF Son. Not really a
surprise though. He's one that has never really delivered for me
in FUT. Adebayor got himself some goals as he always does for
me. Opposite of Son! Quaresma is good, and scored one nice skill
type goal but another that I know I don't get the maximum out
of.
The midfield was ok considering. Ki is an excellent NR, Sosa
opposite is another good NR, perfectly fine for 400 coins. IF
Hutchinson was decent at CCM, performing the screening role.
Very good option for a Turkish League side I would have thought.
Excellent if you ever feel the need to make a Canadian side!
Diakite are both big, strong CB's. Pretty bad distribution but
solid for discard price. Tabanou at LB was distinctly average,
and the Albanina RB Hysaj, pretty much the same.
Perin in goal is pretty damn good! Had already used him in my
seasons teams and he has games where he is absolutely
unbeatable. Just makes impossible saves more than any other
keeper I've used in 16. Played like this in Division 6 and again
in this team, he WILL win you games. A huge, huge recommendation
for him!
