At last managed to win Gold Cup number 15 with my TIF Kane team:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/squads/10202092/
Kane is fantastic. Was already great but since he got upgraded
has got even better. Hugely recommended.
Bolasie was the third left winger to play in the team. IF
Arnautovic and Max Gradel were before him. Arnautovic will be a
good LF, Gradel never really was in a good position, but Bolasie
is very good. Seemed to get in better positions and his strength
was a huge plus over Gradel.
Liked the Portland Timbers right hand side. Darlington Nagbe was
a good silver winger. Wasn't out of his depth against golds.
Hero Diego Valeri was decent. At times could disappear a bit,
but decent passing, shooting and dead ball skills. Powell at
right back was also pretty decent.
Ryan Mason was a surprise. Came up with many a spectacular goal.
Never realy scored a bad one. Fine for 350 coins.
Cambiasso at CDM is always a decent underated player on FUT.
Biggest disadvantage is that he is always half dead by 90
minutes. No chance of him playing in extra time.
Cesar Azpilicueta is a solid LB as ever. Roberto in goal made
some good saves. Heard bad things about him, but never really
let me down.
The centre back pairing of Sergio Sanchez and IF Alberto Botia
was good. Never let me down. Could occassionally get done for
pace, especially late on in a game, but did their jobs.
Liberia, Jamaica and DR Congo crossed off the nationalities
list, Portland, Olympiacos and Panathinaikos off th clubs list.

16th Gold Cup winning team:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/squads/10291384/
What a team it was. So good in attack.
IF Aduriz is wonderful. Heading, strength, finishing in the box.
A great striker. Raul Garcia is also wonderful. A great CM and
700 coins. Probably the biggest bargain this year. Passing,
shooting, can defend, good on the ball. A complete midfielder.
On the wings, Ntep is overpowered as hell. One of the best I've
used this year. Bangoura I thought would be pace and little
else, but he has extremely good dribbling and put in some great
crosses. 5 assists for him in the 4 games.
Other midfielders were Remy Cabella and at CDM, Alex Song.
Cabella is another very good player, non rare but great. So
dangerous coming forward from LCM, but at CAM I could see him
being almost undefendable in the right hands. Song I've used a
couple of times so far and does a good job.
The defence was Benjamin Mendy at LB, a transferred Montoya at
RB and a West Ham pairing of IF Winston Reid and IF James
Collins at CB. Was worried about Collins, but he is solid enough
and wins everything in the air. A bit dodgy on the ball and
turns like a tank, but good defensively. Reid's IF's are always
good cards and this was no exception. The fullback performed
very well and Cech in goal we all know about. Makes saves no
other keeper seems able to make.
Every player was very good. Just of those teams that works in a
big way!

Things seem to be going quite well at the moment, third cup win
in five days (and also a few final defeats in that time as
well). Gold Cup number 17 with this team:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/squads/10461019/
Not quite a one man team, but not that far away. Breel Donald
Embolo scored 13 goals in just 10 games with this squad. Without
doubt the best non rare striker I've used this year. Up there as
the best striker of any that I've used on 16 in fact. Guy is
absolutely incredible and the best 400 coins you can ever spend
on a striker. There is nobody as good as this for 400 coins I'd
say.
The wingers weren't great. Boetius is ok, but is dead by the end
of the match. Berardi did absolutely nothing whatsoever. Never
be using him again in 16. Complete waste of space.
Marchisio is obviously very good, and was also pleased with IF
Kallstrom. Did well, scored a few, assisted a few. Tidy and a
nice player to use.
The CAM, Matias Delgado was a nice surprise. Upgraded to a gold
after being a 71 rated silver originally, he was good. Got 4
goal and 4 assists. A threat from behind Embolo.
The defence did well. Martin Olsson was a decent LB, no
complaints for 450 coins. IF Jonas Olsson did better than I
expected. Only in to give Kallstrom chemistry, but good in the
air and fairly solid. Mexes was decent enough and at RB, Abate
is predictably decent because, like Walker, his pace gets him by
with the way FUT works.

Tried to build a NR hybrid a while back with Embolo.. Couldn't
get anything resembling a quality side.
You have re-kindled my interest now :D

His is one of those that players much better than his rating
suggests. Finishes like a 90 rated player should!
Off the top of my head, it would be a massive struggle to get
him in a NR hybrid team. I know he'd link to Kallstrom and
there's a LM NR, Belgian, in the Swiss League and Barnetta at
CAM in the MLS. Think there's a few NR Swiss midfielders in the
Bundesliga but on the right nothing springs to mind. Suppose it
depends what formation you use. Actually, Kerzakov moved to the
Swiss League, he may be NR? It'll be hard though unless you use
451, 4312 or something where you can keep him away from the
right side of the team.
The amount of time I've spent messing around with players and
teams on concept squads, trying to get Swiss League hybrid
teams, I know this without looking! 451 would definitely be
easiest, but the lack of any wide links to Barnetta in the MLS
might mess that up.......

The 18th Gold Cup winning team from a couple of nights ago:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/squads/10574551/
Gets Ghana and Finland off the nationalities list, completes all
the Gold player clubs in the Colombian League, plus Stoke.
IF Dzyuba is as strong as anyone I've used. Great targetman.
Eremenko was very good at CF, and SIF Jack Butland is up there
as probably second best keeper I've used after Cech.
Everyone else did their job and no complaints.

The latest success, this time in the Three Star Cup:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/squads/10692367/
This has removed Antigua and Barbuda, Gambia, Uruguay and
Georgia from the nations and Nottingham Forest, Burnley,
Whitecaps and Rubin Kazan from the clubs list. Some more welcome
red as we approach the half way point of this Fifa.
Stars of the team were the Georgian pair, Revishvili in goal,
who was better than many gold keepers I've used and Kverkvelia
in central defence. His stats combined with his size are
interesting for a silver:
HTML http://www.futhead.com/16/players/2062/solomon-kverkvelia/
Biggest disappointment was the highest rated player, Pedro
Morales. He did very little. The Gambian LF, Kekuta Manneh is
extremely quick and outpaced Bellarin in one game. The other
forwards were Dexter Blackstock at striker and Chris Burke at
RF. Blackstock has a 1* right foot but is lethal if he gets his
head on anything. Otherwise a shadow of his FUT12 card. Burke
was another I used in 12 and I liked him then and he is still
pretty decent. Joey Barton is an aggressive hard tackling CM who
can actually score if the ball gets to him around the goal and
is useful for his penalties. He linked with Darikwa, who I
remember being a 55 rated rare CM in 13 I think. He's now a
right back, tall and quick. We know what that means in FUT.
Completing the defence were bronze pair Lemos at CB and
Getigezhev at LB. Getigezhev feels like a big CB that has a LB
card and with his L/H is like an extra CB. Lemos wasn't bad
alongside the miles better Kverkvelia.

I've used more than half the nations now with that last cup win.
75 out of 148 if i've counted right. That'll slow down though.
Barbados, Faroe Islands, Greneda ect ect will be like hell to
do!
