u/Agius91

I’ve played FUT since the second year it came out, I’ve played fifa in its iterations since like 1998 (I’m old)
I took a 2 year break between fifa 24 and FC 26 and came back this year since toty cause some friends of mine decided we should play again.

Specifically for UT, I’m a simple man.
In the old games with position and formation modifiers, 41212 wide and 433 were king, then I played 352 and 433(4) and finally the last few futs were always 41212 narrow, 4231 if i *needed* wingers against someone.

I like small strikers, cams and wingers, tall or stocky cm, cdm and full backs and absolute units at cb, that always worked for me!

This year I don’t have a clue what’s going on, i still haven’t picked a formation and it’s almost end of the game for me (I leave at futties) some days it’s 41212(2) some it’s 4411 or 4231 or 442 and I’m never comfortable.

I didn’t like strikers till I packed 93 Muller, before I used Zidane at St and Kaka at cam and swapped them in game, so tall.
Then muller was my hero for ages, unstoppable, but he’s 5’9, then I packed Mbappe who took me ages to understand, he then ran the line till just now.

I have evo’s with worse stats that perform better than their tots (Cherki my best example) I have huge CDM’s with intercept who never latch onto a pass but 5’5 wingers who could stop Vesuvius erupting.

Do my fullbacks need jockey, or intercept, or bruiser or quickstep or anticipate or whipped pass?
Yes.

Does my striker need tiki taka?
Can I pass more than 6 yards without it?
Why is my 6’5 lengthy fullback absolutely rapid, but my 99 pace explosive 5’4 winger can’t outrun his feelings?

Wtf is this game
( I like the friendlies this year tbf, even if a lot of y’all are sweats)

Glad to see Ea carefully crafting each cb to have a unique set of PS+

You guys remember the first year of PS’s, when trickster+ was bugged and people would literally walk the ball into the goal?

Surely this should be a penalty?

Don’t let that man sleep
