How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

[Andyn86]

Well after many restarts I did another career lol. This time I'm in ligue 1 VAFC. I chose French league because the teams don't seem to be good in Europe and the league seems weak so I'm wanting to build it up and make it into a strong league like the English system or Germany. I will give you guys update soon

Hi guys i know this question is unrelated to the thread...but it is about fifa. I have looked high and low for an answer and cant find one anywhere. I love playing online seasons and co op seasons with my buddy and i play with germany. How do i get bastian schweinsteiger into the squad, and gundogan also? They are not even in the reserves, If anyone could help me out with this it would be much appreciated.

bought messi and ronaldo with arsenal, offered messi 750k/week; other than that he doesnt accept, ronaldo was quite easy though

trick is ozil + 37.5m for messi
ronaldo came for 66m + podolski

and you can save budget by making it a 0:100 transfer budget, in my 2nd season summer window,

Now about halfway through my third season with Club Brugge (Belgium) and I'm in the lead by 2 points. Had a somewhat middling performance in the opening round of my first CL competition, but pulled off a shocking 3-1 win against Juventus last night to advance!

The team is firing on all cylinders but I would really like to make the jump to a more prominent league. I've tried applying to a few jobs in England and Germany but keeping getting turned down.

I believe it is because they are still injured IRL and you use the most updated rosters.... Not like there isn't a plethora of quality mids to choose from. Try this lineup:

Neuer

Lahm, Boateng, Hummels, Schmelzer/Badstuber

Muller, Kroos

Gotze, Ozil, Reus

Gomez

4-2-3-1

makes use of Gotze and Reus' speed and passing abilities, plus Kroos and Muller are very good in the middle.

Schalke 04!!!!!!


Well we lost the Champions League in the semi finals to United....

Won the Deutscher Pokal and the League however!!!


didn't make much of a splash in the summer, however, January 2016 was quite an improvement.

I straight swapped Oscar for Hazard. Oscar was very good, but he wasn't clicking with my other players quite like I had hoped. He was rated around 56 mil euros, so I swapped back to Chelsea for Hazard. I feel as though I got the better deal in that one.

I also managed to snag a Bayern prospect for 10 mil. Joel Epstein (21 y.o/ 78 overall, RM) looks like he will be a future starting player. I noticed him on the German National Squad submission list (being a national team manager is a free way to scout talent. you can find youngsters and see their overall + stats for free). EDIT: He is way more valuable than I first thought. He can play RM/CAM/CM/ST 4*4*. What a steal. simmed a week forward and he grew by one point overall. This is going to be insane.

On a different note, I got 3 offers for Lamela, all of which I countered. Manchester City, Real Madrid, and Barcelona all offered around 56 mil for him. It suggested I counter with up to 97.4 million. I did, Real Madrid was the only one to accept, but negotiations fell through. Glad he didn't leave in all honesty. The money was too good to reject, but Lamela is a crucial part of my team.

My squad now looks like this:

Fahrmann (77)

Wolf (69) - Howedes (85) - Papadopoulos (83) - Willems (76)

Vidal (86) - Malanda (82)

Lamela (86) - Draxler (86) - Hazard (87)

Costa (85)


I feel as though I currently have one of the best attacking squads in the world right now.


My next matchup in the Champions League is against Manchester City. I'm not looking forward to that, although they have significantly weakened as a team from all the players growing old and not buying suitable replacements.

hey guys, my first post here. I just wanna know what you guys think about what just happened with my career mode.

I am the manager at Southend United from the league 2. In my first three seasons, I won back to back promotions into the premier league winning two league titles and an fa cup. However in my fourth season in the premier league there were speculations o my best player (a left winger) feeling homesick and wanting to leave the club. however he said he would be faithful to the club and play out till the end of his contract (another 2 years I think). so I finished in the top four that season and won the Europa League. He was my best player from the very beginning.
So in the start of my fifth season I had high hopes knowing I would play in the Champions League thinking until i he says to me he can't be at the club anymore because he misses his family and friends. he formally asked to leave and the board ordered me to sell him.
Now here is the problem, he is from Brazil and - according the the guy that helps me with the transfers - he was worth between £35-£70 million. i obviously didnt want to sell him but if a good offer from a Brazilian team came about, I would consider it. I was only getting offers from teams like Chelsea, Man United, and still no offers from a Brazilian team. next thing I know, I get a message saying that the club sold him to Tottenham Hotspurs for £35 million.
I WAS SO PISSED OFF THAT I STOPPED PLAYING MY CAREER MODE!!! NOT ONLY DID THEY SELL HIM FOR MUCH LESS THAN WE COULD HAVE POTENTIALLY GOT, BUT HE WAS SOLD TO AN ENGLISH CLUB WHEN HE WANTED TO LEAVE BECAUSE HE WAS HOMESICK!!! WE WERE ABOUT TO PLAY IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE AND SPURS DIDNT EVEN FINISH IN THE TOP FOUR!!!!
I see that as a terrible glitch by EA and I'm not happy.

I'm pretty shocked. Looks like I'm buying a new team lol. Just kidding. I need to definitely up my keeper. Fahrmann has performed extremely well. And I have been quite happy with him. I'm not sure who I will get to replace him. I have been contemplating bringing Neuer back to Schalke, although he is aging and I'd prefer a young keeper.

I also am thinking of buying a good LB and loaning Willems out. or making him a sub and loaning one of my bench players out.

Lamela had me scared for a while, admitting the weather was making him sad. He was nearing a transfer, then out of the blue he wanted to stay. So that is great news!!!! I might sell Costa (not improving in terms of overall or skills anymore) and buy Balotelli (always been a fan). I think Papadopoulos will be on his way out to make room for a better defender. Thinking Hummels or Boateng.


Will update more when I finish this window!
