Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

Are you going to make any other signings, apart from Hummels,Reus and a CDM?

No, I won't. If I sell someone who I need to replace I will buy other players. Reus and Hummels were aigned for free in January which means that buying a CDM is the only target.

Phil against The World

Season 2

Milton Keynes Dons

Strongly dislike your career. Yep all of it. Even putting the word "Dons" at the end of Milton Keynes insults me. HOWEVER, you're doing really well and I must say I like your in game pictures. Real nice touch!

[_ChicoBass]

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

Ill definitely give it a go. Thanks for the help man.

No problem. If it doesn't work out we'll think of some other stuff. Let me know what you ended up doing and how it went!

Anyone know if you can win the treble in North America or South America in fifa 15?

Sorta, but not really. In real life it is possible, as most nations have league, domestic cup, and a shot at continental cups like the Copa Libertadores (equivalent of Champions League) and Copa Sudamericana (equivalent of Europa League but not available in FIFA). From what I've read FIFA still hasn't added Mexico's domestic cup, but you could still win a treble there since Mexico, and Argentina, have two short league tournaments in a year and also the continental cup. Winning two back to back league tournaments is already very rare. Since Mexico changed to it's current format only two teams have been able to do it, UNAM and most recently Leon. So yes you sort of can win a treble, but not like in Europe. MLS doesn't participate in any continental tournaments.

Haha, respect for that. I know I probably won't win you over right now, but maybe Phil goes somewhere else in the future. :P

Sent To Coventry
Season 3
FIFA 15

Match 11

West Brom 1-3 Coventry
Agard 56
Nouble 62
Dorrans 76
Fleck 78 (PEN)
In our first derby match of the season, the deadlock wasn't broken until the second half when Agard slid in to knock the ball home from a low ball in by Nouble. Nouble then made it 2, running clear to curl home before Dorrans pulled one back with an incredibly powerful free kick into the top corner. Fleck made it 3 from the spot when Nouble was brought down in the box after cutting inside his man. Victory in our first derby!

Match 12

Coventry 1-0 Manchester United
Nouble 84
In a match that no-one expected us to win, we surprisingly came out on top, if with a few scares. We had the first real chance when Lindergaard pulled off an incredible save to deny an Agard header. Rooney managed to curl an incredible shot onto the post and Marshall made an incredible point blank save to deny Hernandez. Lindegaard then made a massive error, getting tackled 30 yards out but Hughes curling effort managed to be clawed away with an incredible stop to make up for it. Smalling then had a goal ruled out for offside, smashing in on the rebound of Jones effort that was parried. Nouble then finally broke the deadlock, heading in from a corner. Fellaini came close to an equaliser, smashing off the post with an outside the foot curler.

Match 13

Aston Villa 0-0 Coventry
In our second derby of the season, it was quite a bland nil-nil draw. Villa had the majority of the chances, Edenilson and Weimann both missing sitters while we came closest with a shot by Nouble that was saved spectacularly by Pantilimon.

Match 14

Coventry 1-1 Southampton
Agard 31
Long 90
Agard opened the scoring in this match after an outstanding passing move between himself and Nouble. Southampton then dominated the match from then on but we were holding out until Long smashed in an equaliser in the last minute of the game.

The 4-1-3-2 or 4-4-2 diamond is working fairly well for me. I've more wins since I've switched!

January window is also open now, anyone have any good players for League 1 teams? Any suggestions are welcome.

Bard Finne from Norway. Great young striker to try and bring in on loan if interested. I think he's like 66 or 69 overall. Hyndman from Fulham is good for a loanee for half a season. Those are a few that I could think of off the top of my head. Not sure if you'd be interested in those two.

Simppu have you ever thought of moving to a 4-1-4-1? Just wondering because I feel like Kroos is not being utilized right, right now by playing DM instead of CAM.

I actually have thought about that but for some reason I have never tried it. I will test it out soon. The formation worked really well for me in FIFA 14.

Thanks Chicobass you cleared that up perfectly for me. Right I have quite a few CMs going on and one in Mexico so hopefully I will get a chance to do what you mentioned to me, but that will be while from now.

Ok so I found Finne so will try to sign him, looks decent with good potential. Hyndman doesn't seem to be in FIFA 14 but thanks for name anyway. Any other ideas from you or anyone else?

If you're looking for a striker try to sign Poulsen from the 2nd Bundesliga (not sure about the team). Barca's Munir or Sandro could be good, too. They shouldn't be too expensive and if you can't afford them you can loan them. Embolo from Basel is another option. Newcastle's Gael Bigirimana is a glitched player so he could do well for you.

For lower leagues Max Clayton is a good striker to sign if you like short, pacey strikers. I'm not 100% on recommending him because I haven't played '15 so I don't know if he's still good or not.
