         Try to get some coins to improve your back line: Vermaelen, Kaboul, Ramires (you need one CM with good defensive attributes) and Enrique, for example.

       What do you think of my team(4-3-3)?

       Starting 11
       De Gea
       Walker-Kaboul-Kompany-Clichy
       Mata-Toure-Carzola
       Young-Torres-Walcott

       Subs
       Cech
       Vermaelan
       Lampard
       Ramires
       Gervinho
       Tevez
       Robin Van Persie

       Reserves
       Cole
       Richards
       Valencia

       I havent tried out RVP yet. Is Aguero worth his price? I am also planning on getting Hazard, David Silva and Nasri. What do you think of them?

         You are in the rigt way, planning to buy Aguero, Hazard, David Silva and Nasri.
         You have some players on your bench or in the reserves that are better than the main 11. For us, Cole is better than Clichy, RBP and Tévez are better than Torres…
         Good team anyway. It will be much better with your new signings.

       Hi. It’s good to be rich.
       You already have a fantastic squad. If you don’t like your CAM, you can try to put RVP as CAM and Rooney as ST. Other option is to buy David Silva to this position.
       In our opinion, you should improve your CB’s and buy a better GK (Lloris ?). Kompany is faster ans a good CB. If you think that you don’t need a faster CB, then you will love Vidic. He is wonderful but slow.

     Hey guys,
     i was wondering where sturridge is; hes got 90 pace guys, but hes not listed in “fastest attackeres”, just sayin`…

       Hi.
       This guide was published before the launch of UP cards. Sturridge wasn’t an attacker on that time. That’s why he is not in the list. You don’t find Remy either.

           Hi.
           Kaboul is a good fast CB that you can try.
           Touré is one of our favourites BPL players. Mata is not so good and don’t defends as Touré. But you can try him and see how you play with him.

           Hi.
           1) For us Agger is better. Rio is a good defender but he is too slow. You have a formation with 3 defenders which means that you need fast CB’s. You have 2. You need one more.
           2) Ramires play well as CDM. Tioté is also an option but not so good.
           3) Hernandez and Remy are faster than Tévez but, in our opinion, the City player is better than these two striker. In fact, we think that only Rooney, Aguero and maybe RVP are better than him.

   Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.
   I just wondered if i bought Walcott as my formation does not use wingers (4-1-2-1-2) which would be the best place to put him and change his position with a position card?
   I am worried about his wrong foot and don’t really understand it all yet, I am new to the game.

   Brilliant guide by the way has helped me loads

     As you can see, the best that you can do is to put him as CAM without cards. You will loose 4 chemistry points.

   Aguero + Rooney was too expensive, so I was thinking of Aguero + Van Persie, do you think those 2 will work good together? Thanks!

   My team: 4-1-2-1-2
   ST: Aguero & Rooney
   CAM & CDM: Cazorla & Ramires
   RM & LM: Valencia & Young
   RB & LB: Glen Johnson & Enrique
   CB’S: David Luiz & Kaboul
   GK: Céch

   Do you think it is a good team? Please tell me improvements, that would be very much appreciated!

     Hi Frederik. Thanks for your contact. We are sure that they will play well together. We have both in our squad and they play well together. For your budget you have a nice team. I bet that Ramires is a very important player in that team. As soon as you get some more coins, there are some good buys: Ashley Cole, Touré and David Silva

         • Frederik PG says:

           4 December 2012 at 15:46

           And if possible: Balotelli and Torres?
         • FIFA U Team Administrator says:

           4 December 2012 at 18:17

           Koné is fast but the other attributes are not so good as other players that you can buy. He is a cheap option. Cissé is a better option but Koné connects better with Touré. About Balotelli, he is a great player. We don’t like Torres very much because he is not so strong physically.
       • FIFA U Team Administrator says:

         4 December 2012 at 18:11

         Toure is superb! Sorry about David Villa. We meant to say Davis Silva!

           Thanks for the quick and amazing good answers, I really appreciate it.
           1 last question:
           Van persie doesn’t seem to have the pace that I feel is needed nowadays in FUT, so I was thinking of replacing him with Balotelli, what do you think of that idea? Thanks in advance !
         • FIFA U Team Administrator says:

           4 December 2012 at 20:31

           Hi again. First of all it is important to say that there are no better players. We can prefer Ibra and you Messi. That’s the beauty of FUT. It depends of your formation, your type of play, etc… We agree with you about Van Persie. He is not so fast as we like on a striker. Since he has a good pass, we put him as CM. Van Persie has the second best shooting of FUT13 (Ronaldo first) but if pace is more important to you, chose Balotelli. You will need to test him to have sure if he is what you really expect.
         • Frederik PG says:

           4 December 2012 at 19:27

           And with Davis you mean David right ?
         • FIFA U Team Administrator says:

           4 December 2012 at 20:25

           Yep… DAVID Silva. This time is correct!

           I hope not to get on your nerves or anything, cause I feel really stupid to ask another question (sorry) :/ but I hope you can forgive me:

           Should I get Yaya Toure or David Silva first for 4-1-2-1-2? Since CAM is the Key position in that formation according to your formation guide.

           Goodnight and I’m once again sorry and I will see you tommorow (hopefully lol)
         • FIFA U Team Administrator says:

           4 December 2012 at 23:56

           Hi. We are here to help. And your question is a good question. It’s up to you, but in your case we get David Silva first. Ramires should be OK to CDM until you get some more coins do Touré.
         • Frederik PG says:

           5 December 2012 at 11:09

           Okay, and what do you think of Mata vs Silva in that CAM position 4-1-2-1-2? I heard from a lot of people that Mata is superior to Silva, but I’m not sure which one to get.
         • FIFA U Team Administrator says:

           6 December 2012 at 08:02

           In our opinion Silva is much better. We have both but Mata is only to the bench.
         • Frederik PG says:

           5 December 2012 at 20:27

           Or even Nasri.

      Hi. The best thing to do is to play with Rooney as a ST and as a CAM. It’s up to you to decide the best position. We agree with Rooney as a CAM. With 300k we would buy David Silva and a goalkeeper.

          We will publish a chemistry guide very soon. In that article you can learn how to build hybrid teams.
          You can also take a look to MY FUT 13, where we have a hybrid with hazard. Replace the more expensive players by some more cheaper.

    What do you think of my team? (Standard 4-4-2)

    Lloris
    IF Evra – IF Hangeland – Vidic – Micah Richards
    Hazard – IF Cleverley/YaYa – Kagawa – Valencia
    Rooney – RvP

    Got Hernandez, IF Welbeck, R. Ferdinand, Walcott, De Gea, Rafael and Wilshere that I can remember on the bench.

      We think that you have a nice team but you can get better than Kagawa. Maybe David Silva. You can also do what Jackorus suggest: bring Rooney or RVP to CM and put Aguero as ST.

      Hi. You have a nice cheap team.
      Between these 3 players, we would choose Bale. With some more coins we buy a new LB (Cole for example) and maybe a new ST (Tévez).
      About the formation try to find here the pros and the cons.

      It depends on the position you’re feeling weaker, your style of play and your wallet. We suggest to buy a faster CB and a stronger ST. The best thing to do is to buy some potential players and try it.

    Great analysis, almost scary as I thought just like you when I built mine, but i think that you forgot to mention one important thing which is the height of the defenders which, in my opinion, more important then their heading, since they will reach the ball first in corners or crosses. Anyway my 4-1-2-1-2 team:
    Hart
    Maicon. Kompany. Kaboul. A.cole
    Yaya
    Nasri. Hazard
    D.Silva
    Aguero. Rooney

    Bench (Worth Mentioning) : balotelli,Marcelo,hulk,di maria..
    Something is missing and I can’t figure it out, Rooney gets outstrenght very often which really irritates me and and both of them never made a header from crosses or corners(always kompany, yaya or kaboul). Balo saves my ass all the time as a supersub.. kaboul, makes horrible mistakes but his height has saved my ass many times As he reaches the ball first..

    Do you have any advice on how to improve this squad? Changing formation? Faster forwards? 200k for vidic? (is he really worth the money?)

      Hi. Great comment and great team.
      You can see our comments about these players in MY FUT13.
      Rooney never gets outstrenght with us but we never play more than 3 matches in row with him. But we already notice what you said about heading. In FUT 12 he scores a lot of goals from corners and crosses. In FUT 13 he can’t do it, we don’t know why. Vidic is to expensive. We have him in our squad but we send him to the bench because he is too slow. A fantastic player but too slow. We recommend Thiago Silva (that link only with Maicon) or Sergio Ramos. But you need to see if it affects the chemistry too much. About your team is almost perfect. We prefer Lloris as GK and a better CB to Kaboul place. Regards

    Hey I was curious as to why you had Valencia on your best team. I definitely prefer Lennon as he has two better pace and two better dribbling. These are surely stats that you want in a winger?

      True. Lennon has better pace and better dribbling than valencia but only for 2 points. Valencia is much better passing and crossing, which is also very important in a winger. That’s why we choosed him. Regards.

    Hi guys,
    I’m about to blow your minds because I do not have an all premiere league squad, but I seek your thoughts on the bpl striking core of my hybrid. It is as follows:
    352 formation
    GK: Casillas
    CBs: Pepe Pique Mascherano
    CDMs: Xavi and Xabi Alonso
    LM; Lavezzi
    RM: Di Maria
    CAM: Tevez
    STs: Van Persie and Aguero

    I need tevez as the CAM to have 9 chem with di maria and lavezzi, so my question is with my strikers. Van Persie is AMAZING, i have 18 goals with 10 games online with him, but Aguero is not performing up to par. (I think I have 8 goals in 18 games with him) Should I sell aguero for Rooney and play Rooney with Van Persie up top? There will be no speed, but I’m thinking lavezzi and di maria will make up for the lack of speed from the Man U squad. Your thoughts

      We love hybrid squads! You have a nice one because you have the best of two sides: the defence of BBVA and the attack of the BPL. About the strikers it isn’t easy to answer you. You will keep chemistry high with Rooney or Aguero. We love both. It isn’t easy to choose. Aguero is faster and Rooney stronger. You can always sell Aguero, buy Rooney and if you don’t like him, exchange again. One more thing: to make a perfect team you should gather some more coins and buy Sergio Ramos to Mascherano place.

        Ah thanks guys I appreciate it. I bought Rooney today and love him! I have no speed up top, but Lavezzi and Di Maria somewhat make up for it. Rooneys High defensive work rate is the only annoying thing. And my plan was to get Serigio Ramos next, but I would have to replace Pique or Pepe because I need the Argentinian Chemistry of Macherano. Thanks for your reply though and I love the guide!

      Thanks! There is team chemistry and player chemistry. The important is the first one. If you have chemistry 100 even with players in wrong positions, your team will be fine. But not 100%. If you have players chemistry below 9, these players will not play the best they can do. But again: the important is the team chemistry.

With your currently budget, you already have one of the best teams you can have. About the tips, the best thing to do is to buy lower and sell higher. We will publish some coins guides soon.

    Im currently playing with

    Czech
    Clichy-David Luiz-Kompany-M. Richards
    Y. Toure
    Mata Nasri
    Inform Chicharito
    Inform Defoe Rooney

    Id like to know how i could strengthen my defense and another EXELLENT CF instead of IF Hernandez, cause he aint keeping up. He has 90 pace but still he get beaten by any defender, also he is so weak and his shoots are not that good.

    Aalso would like to add that IF Defoe is the best striker a team could have. H es amazingly fast he has goot shoot power and accuracy, only weakness is he is horrible with his weak foot but aside that he is the best striker i had.

      Thanks! If you don’t like Hernandez, you can sell him and for that money try another good player. You can play with RVP as CF. He has a great shot (the second best of FUT 13), excellent pace and he is fast enough. The best thing to do is to try him and if you remain unhappy try another one (Rooney as cF and Tévez as ST ?). About the defenders, the truth is, in our opinion, BPL defenders are not the best ones. You can not do much. You already have two of the best BPL defenders. To improve it you need to hire defenders of other leagues which means weaken your chemistry.

    Rooney (CF);
    Nani (LM), Cazorla (CM), Toure (CM), Valencia (RM);
    Cole (LB), Kompany (CB), Vidic (CB), Sagna (RB);

    Bench:

    Can I have your opinion on my team and how can I improve it? I know stuff like replacing Sagna for Maicon, Hart > Lloris, Nani > Hazard, but maybe you can tell me other stuff. Some people have players from other leagues in their team and still have 100 chemistry, how can I import (for example) Sergio Ramos best and still have 100 chemistry?

      In our opinion, you already have a nice team. Our first tip is to not buy any IF. They are really expensive, not good value for money. For us, RVP is better than Balotelli and you should improve first your main 11, not the bench.
      You can try Lloris to replace Cech or Maicon to Richards place. Neymar for Robinho place seems to us a great improvement. Specially if you love skills moves.

      Our suggestions is to replace Cisse (+ 0k) or Dzeko (+300 coins) by Mirallas.
      You already have a nice team for your budget. You need more coins to great improvements.

    Hi. I have premier league squad in the formation 5-2-1-2 with:
    Lloris
    Cole-Terry-Kompany-Vermaelen-Maicon
    Mata-Toure
    David Silva
    Van Persie-Rooney
    The problem is that I feel like silva is not playing to his potential as a cf. I am therefore wondering if it is smart toget silva down to cm and get rid of Mata, place Rooney at cf again and buy Aguero for st? Or should i play some more with Silva and focus on getting Vidic as a replacement for Vermaelen first?

      Hi. What a wonderful team!
      It is very smart to get Silva down to cm and get rid of Mata, place Rooney at cf again and buy Aguero for st. We think that it is the best solution.
      About Vidic, it depends of your style of play. He is the best defender on the area, but he is very slow. if you often suffer counter-attacks, Vidic isn’t the right man for you.
      It depends of your style of play, your preferences, etc… but, in our opinion, buying Aguero is a lot more important and 120k is enough for that.

    I just dismantled my 4-2-3-1 BPL Team as I have way better results with my 4-2-2-2 Serie A and 4-3-3 La Liga Team. My problem was my attacks just never seemed to have any space to work unless they were moving toward the corner flag.
    I was using:
    GK- Lloris,
    Cole, Kompany, IF Koscielny, Maicon
    Toure, Tiote (I tried Gerrard here too)
    Tevez, Nasri, Aguero
    Balotelli (also tried Higuain and IF Milito) they were worse.

    Is going 4-1-2-1-2 with the team in your article the best way to find more attacking strength or should I repeat the formations I use in other leagues? My 4-3-3 Spanish team has lots of space on the wings and Falcao finishes well but they still aren’t as strong as my 4-2-2-2 Serie A.

      Hi. No one said that 4-1-2-1-2 is better. Us, for example, prefer 4-4-2 formation. We think that you should repeat the formation that you more enjoy. You can try other formations before to chose, but you will be more comfortable with the ones you have played more.
      You already have a good BPL team. Have you tried Ramires on Tiote place? And David Silva on Nasri place?
      About Spanish team, 4-3-3 is a very offensive formation. If you are not scoring as you do with Serie A, you should try to replace your attackers.

      In the attack, you could give a look to Cissé if you like fast players.
      In the defense, the weakest position in our opinion, you can give a try to Jan Vertonghen, Michael Dawson or David Luiz.
      The goalkeeper can be improved too, even with a low budget. Julio Cesar is a good choice but Wojciech Szczesny is also better than Vorm, in our opinion.

      You have almost the perfect BPL team.
      Our suggestions are the same that we showed in this article: you can buy Rooney to CAM, Vidic to CB (only if you don’t care about pace on the defender), Maicon to RB, Aguero to ST moving RVP to CAM.
      But, if you really want to make great improvements on this team, you need to buy IF’s (we do not recommend it because it is an expensive solution) or to transform your BPL team on a Hybrid one. You can take some ideas with our MY FUT 13 squad.

    I have no problem making money and I was wondering if u have any suggestions for improvements or other players to buy e.t.c.

      Hi. Sorry for the delayed answer. We were moving our server.
      We do not have many tips for you since you already have a fantastic team, as you know.
      Vidic is a great great defender but some people dislike him since he is a bit slow.
      The advice about Hazard makes sense. Some people prefer Hazard, and others prefer Bale. Bale is a bit more faster and it makes all the difference for some players. It can be your case.
      If you have enough coins, you should try to keep with Aguero and with RVP. For us, Aguero is better but RVP is also a wonderful player.
      If you have more coins and what to make great improvements, you can try the IF’s cards (very expensive) or transform your team in a hybrid one.

    I know this is way down the comment lost and I will post my team pick tomorrow because I added gotze and rues to my “chelsea/Tottenham” team. I have four other teams and I love 4-2-3-1 so I wanted to give some advice I have learned. If you have good CDM/cm use this formation but they have to have high works rates each way in order to get the most out of them. The cf acts like a second striker and when u attack bring one of the two cam into the middle to control the play with the CDM that steps up. My teams wouldn’t work in other formations because of who the players are and how I play. I suggest playing the leagues on world class or legendary to test your teams before going online and if u have questions just test it offline. Also to help new people remember that forward isn’t the only way forward in FIFA. U can pass vertically and backwards or just hold up the play while the comp makes runs. The best players don’t make the best team. Long winded but here is my team: cech cole terry Kabul ivanovic Fellani Ramires gotze rues mata Torres. Kabul and cole have the speed to help the back line while Fellani wins the headers and Ramires does everything else. My front four only attack so I don’t need my fullbacks for that. I don’t like my lack of height up front so I use lewandowski sometimes although it drops my chemistry to 95

      It depends. We think you can put a better player than Mirallas next to Balotelli. But it’s up to you. You should try him in some match and see what’s happen. The best way to see if a player fits on our team is to try him. He is really fast but his heading is weak and he isn’t strong in finishing.

      We can’t advice well because it depends of your budget, your style of play, your preferences, etc… The best to us can be the worse to you.
      You can take a look at Ramires to Fellaini place. To make more improvements you will need more coins…

          In your place and with 58k coins, I would buy Ashley Cole and Touré or David Silva. It depends if you prefer an attacking player or a more defensive player.

    Hi I love this guide, it is really helpful and I’ve been following it pretty closely except I am using a 4 5 1 formation. I have no problems making money so pretty much an unlimited budget and I was wondering what improvements u could suggest for this team I have at the moment:
    GK: Lloris
    RB: Maicon RCB: Kompany LCB: Vidic LB: Cole
    CM: Yaya Toure
    RM: Valencia LM: Hazard
    CAM: Rooney CAM: David Silva
    ST: Aguero
    Is there any improvements you would suggest? Also someone said Hazard is wasted as a left mid so should I replace him with Bale, would he be better? Should I swap Rooney and Aguero or replace either of them with RVP or someone else? Would Hart be a better keeper than Lloris because of hes taller?

      Hi!
      It depends of your style of play and your preferences. The best players to us can be the worse to you.
      You already have a top BPL squad.
      You can improve it with:
      1) Some better players, like David Silva to Nasri place or Rooney to RVP place;
      2) Some IF players, like IF Bale or IF Kompany;
      3) Transforming your BPL squad on a hybrid one.

      The first one is the easiest, the second is too expensive and the third is the best one.

      Hi again Henke.
      We researched your questions and it seems that we forgot to answer you to the last one. Sorry about that.
      About your nice 4-4-2 squad:
      1) Moving M. Richards to CB seems to be a good option if he keeps the 9 chemistry (he keeps?) since BPL CB’s are not the best BPL players.
      2) Hart vs Lloris. Lloris is better than Hart. No question about that. He is better in almost every attributes. Specially in reflexes and diving, the two most important. The question is: Lloris worth paying the double ? It’s up to you.
      3) You already have a very nice team. It depends of many factors as your play style, your preferences, etc… In our opinion, the next transfer should be David Silva to Nasri place, and then Aguero or Rooney. You also can try buying Hazard to RM and keeping Bale as LM.
      Best Regards

        M.Richards as a CB is genius in my opinon, good pace good defense and good header.

        bought D,Silva yesterday so next step are a forward next to tevez?

          Every players should have 9 in individual chemistry. If you have 7 it means that he will no play everything he knows, affecting specially the non-physical attributes. But it is still a good option.
          In our opinion a ST should be the next buy.

      Hi. Cool team.
      You already have a very nice team. To improve it you will need more coins: Aguero, Rooney, etc.
      To us the weakest player is Valencia. If you buy Aguero to ST, you can Replace Valencia by Di Maria. It will not affect your chemistry too much since he has only two links.

      Hi. For us he is the best CAM of BPL even being slower than some other players. No one is better than him. His ball control is the best of entire FUT 13.
      If you wanna find a replacement for him you can try Rooney in that position. If you don’t have money for Rooney, you can try Tévez or even RVP and Tévez as ST.

      You will need money to improve that team because you already have a good team. With some more coins you can buy one of the three players: Touré, David Silva or RVP (or Tévez) . They are our choices to replace some not stronger players.

      Reina seems a bit better than Cesar. But if money is really important to you, there is no big difference between both.
      You already have a nice team for a small budget. In order to build a better team, you will need to collect some more coins. It’s not so difficult.

    Aguero Messi
    Tevez
    Bale Hazard
    Gerrard Toure
    Kompany Vidic Valmaren
    Lloris

    I feel it was worth the chemistry drop to play hazard out of position rather than Walcott or Valencia. No-one is meantioning Tevez here. I think he is far superior to Silva. I really didnt like Silva. Aguero can be frustrating too but I have to have him so Messi can fit in!

    What do you guys think? Would you change anything. I won the 1st division in straight games with a spanish league team but struggle to survive relegation with this team!

      You have a fantastic team (and very expensive too) but it’s not good if you got best results with a weaker one.
      We really like Tevez. But we prefer David Silva. Everyone is different!
      Placing Hazard on the right seems to be a good move. You are not the first doing this.
      If you dislike Aguero, you can try Higuain. He link well with Messi and Tévez. We don’t recommend this because we are Aguero fans…
      If it was our team, we will sell Messi and use that money to get more good players.

      Hi.
      Having a great team as you have is good but also bad. It’s good because we play with the better players and have more chances to win. It’s bad because we get upset everytime we loose with a weaker opponent. It happens with us, too.
      You have almost the perfect BPL team, so there’s no much to improve. But you need to buy a GK.
      Well, what we can say about it ?!
      First, Vidic is a great great player. But he is not the right guy to everyone. If you attack constantly, Vidic is to slow for counter-attacks. Verify if it happens to you.
      Secondly, did you tried every single formation before building this team? If you are a average player and you have a fantastic team, maybe the problem could be the formation. 4-3-1-2 is suitable for those who like to play through the middle. If you concend many goals, you need to do something about it. Maybe changing to a formation with 5 defenses or, at least, with one CDM to cover the CB’s.

      Walcott IF can play as ST and as CF (loosing 2 chemistry points).
      Walcott NIF will loose up to 6 chemistry points since it doesn’t exist RW, RM, RF or LW on a 4-2-3-1 formation.

    GK: lloris
    RB: Maicon
    CB : Vidic

    I had rooney and torres in place of RVP before and neither of them scored many goals, RVP has done good for me so far, i persume my weakest area is carzola-podolski? But i’ve had them both since day one and i’m kind of hanging onto the arsenal link and they’ve both scored loads and podolskis shooting and carzola’s 5 star weak foot to cut inside with. Any idea?

      We agree with you. Carzola-Podolski are your weakest area. But if you want to keep them, it’s up to you.
      Aguero was a good option to Podolski place.
      If you already tried Rooney and you didn’t like him, the only option is to transform your team into a hybrid one. See here our hybrid BPL-BBVA squad.

      If you have some coins to invest, David Silva and Touré might be great improvements since your midfield seems to us the weakest area. It’s a shame to have RVP on the bench. If you don’t need him, you can sell him and buy one of the two suggestions.

    tevez, podolski -cams
    balotelli-cf
    toure, fellani- cdm

    my bench has bent, hernandez (one of my favs for speed), valencia, david luis, enrique, richards, tiote, and i recently got neur in a pack.

    i am considering my next moves and am thinking about aguero as a st, david silva as a cam and kompany as a cb. Who do you think I should go after first?

    Also i was considering converting my team to a 4-1-2-1-2 hybrid team with adding defenders from the liga bbva, who do you think would be the best fit with my current players? and do you think switching to the 41212 over the 4231 would be a smart move?

      Hi.
      Fist of all, it’s nice to have you here with us.
      You have a good squad which can be improved. And you are thinking well. Aguero, David Silva and Kompany are the right guys for you. In our opinon Kompany is cheaper, so should be the first one. Then Aguero and finally David Silva.
      Making a hybrid with BBVA defenders are a very good move. Who can fit? Depends of your budget. If you have money, Casillas, Pepe and Sergio Ramos. If you buy these three players you will keep a high chemistry. Take a look to our hybrid squad.
      About the formation, it’s up to you. You should choose what you like more. Take a look here.

      It depends of your style of play, your preferences and, of course, your budget. The best for us can be the worse for you.
      The first thing is Giovinco. In this team he has bad chemistry, so you should find a replacement.
      We recommend also some defensive midfielders, as Ramires, since yours are all midfielders with high attacking work rate.
      If you have enough money, try Kompany, Toure, David Silva and/or Tévez.

      If you really want to make a BPL squad, we think that Kompany is the right man for you. You can buy him by 40k. If you want to go to Hybrid BBVA-BPL, you have good defenders in La Liga as Ramos or Pepe.

    Hi guys! what do u think of these players?
    Iv tried with D.Silva, are there any beter players for counter attacking fotball?
    *iv noticed that 7 of 10 goals i conceeded where through balls, thats way the speedy back 4, are there better players to defend against that, i think I have the best? I tried with kompany and Vermalen but they have no chance against trough balls.

    Midfield are rather defensiv but i cant play with D.silva tried 100 times, (have S.Gerrard on the Bench)

    Attack : Chicharito fantastico ! but torres?? who would u buy?

      Hi.
      You already have the best GK of BPL.
      About the defense, if your problem is the counter attacks, Kompany should be the right man to join to David Luiz. If you didn’t like him, you need to go outside of BPL. But it will a bit tricky to keep the chemistry high. Our advice: since your GK have a hiper link with the CB, both don’t need any more link to get 9 chemistry. So, you can buy Pepe to CB, Joao Pereira to RB, Di Maria to RM and Aguero to ST. And you have enough coins to do it. You will not get chemistry 9 to all of them but you you will fix the CB problem, the ST problem and the RM problem (Walcott is fast but not fantastic as Di Maria). And you will love Joao Pereira. If you don’t like David Silva, try Nasri.He is much faster.
      Please, give us feedback.

    Hey guys, just one quick question. I play a 4-1-2-1-2 and i dont believe that valencia is of high enough caliber to play on my BPL team. I was just wondering if you guys think that mata would be a good substitution even though he is a center mid.
    Also money and chemistry is not an issue
    Also i was just thining maybe Bale for valencia could be a good replacement. SO just wondering what your opinion is . Valencia Mata or Bale at rm
    -Thankyou

      We agree with you. Valencia is not a top player to a BPL squad. The RM positon is possibly the weakest on BPL. If money isn’t a problem, Mata IF is the best solution. He was released as RM. Bale is also a nice option but it willl be very difficult to keep him with individual chemistry 9. Another option is to convert yout squad in a Hybrid BPL/BBVA team. Check it here how to do it.
      Our coice goes to Bale. He is very nice player and he isn’t so expensive as Mata IF.

      Hi.
      As you know, it depends of your style of play, your budget and your preferences.
      In our opinion you have a good team. We know that Ivanovic defends better but we prefer Sagna. We think that your midfielders have a low defensive work rate. Putting Toure on Mata pace seems to us a very good improvement. Valencia is either a great great player but on BPL the RM’s are not so good as LM’s. You can play with Bale on the right if you want. Finally, we don’t like Torres. Tévez and Van Persie are much better.
      But it is only our opinion.

      Almost everything seems OK to us. But we think that your CB’s are a bit slow. If you have that money, Kompany will be a great improvement to stop the counter attacks.
      Did you tried David Silva as CM ? We think that he can replace Nasri or Mata (keep with Toure on your team because he helps the defenders).

      Hi.
      The LB is a easy choice. Ashley Cole is a better player but Clichy is much faster. So, you will love him.
      About CB the decision isn’t so easy. In our opinion, BPL don’t have great CB’s. IF Koscielny isn’t a cheap card but if you have enough coins, he will be the right choice for you. He’s fast and have very good defensive attributes (heading and defending).

      It depends of many things as your preferences, your style of play and, of course, your budget. The best players for us can be the worse for you.
      Analysing your team, it’s obvious that you need some improvements to RF, ST and maybe CM.
      You can try Tévez or RVP as ST. David Silva is a great player and he can play as CM. Toure is also one of our favorites but, if you think that you don’t need any more player with high defensive work rate, you should keep with Mata or Nasri.
      As RF you can try to adapt a CF/ST to that position. If you have enough coins you can put Aguero as ST and Tévez as RF. Both will keep a high chemistry.

      If you have coins, Kompany will be a great improvement to your team. Also, we think that if you like dribbling, you will love Tévez. He is better than Defoe for sure.
      If these players are too expensive to you, why no try Ramires to give a help to the defenders? If Hazard is not as you expected, you can try Bale and save some coins.
      Anyway, nice team.

      In our opinion, you should try another CDM, as Toure (the best one) or Ramires (cheaper), and another CAM, as David Silva.
      If you have enough coins, you can try also Kompany and Tévez.

       Hi.
       David Silva is fantastic but he is not a fast player. Totally agree. He fits perfect in many formations but, in 4-1-2-1-2, the CAM plays far away from the other players (in 4-2-2, for example, David Silva as CM has the company of other CM).
       If money isn’t a problem, you can try many good players like Tévez or Aguero. We know that you have Aguero as ST, but you can buy RVP or Rooney (what happens to yours?) for that place. Podolski and Torres are not our favourites…

       It is absolutely true: rm position is one of the hardest to find a decent BPL player.
       Valencia is good and is under 4k. If you can not afford him right now, you can try Aaron Lennon or, even better and cheaper, Adam Johnson.
       If you want someone more cheap, try Jermaine Pennant. We played with him and we loved him.

       Yes, he will. Since he don’t have a good pass, you should try him and replace him if you dislike him.
       ” will try pennant as he will link well with etherington on the other side” are you sure that both link ? If one plays in one side and the other one in the other side they probably don’t have any connection.

     Hello ! thx for the tips about some new player, heres a rewiew:

     J.PERIRA – decent just like G-Johnson but i understand why you recomend him, because of pepe and maria.

     A.MARIA – i dont know how to play with him, he just a man i in the squad, nothing special with him? or how should i play with him?

     S.NASRI – very nice player ! nothing to say about him

     S.AGUERO – wonderboy

     PEPE – Great defender, decent pace

     thx for the tips !
     anyways i sold IF chicharito and bought in M.Reus – two words, outstanding and cheap.
     so my Current squad:

     H.Lloris
     G.Clichy Vincent Kompany Pepe J.Pereria
     G.Bale Y.Touè C.Tiotè A.Maria
     M.Reus & S.Aguero

     (Nasri on the bench, jumps in every match thats are tied in 60 minutes or when i need to score goals.)

     and now what? :p i A.Maria works fine but he is not at treat.
     then i wondered, Maicon? but the chemistry will go down then, because of Pepe and A.Maria.

     On paper its either G.Clichy or J,Pereria, but i think its rather, J.Periera or A.Maria?

     suggestions?

       Hi.
       We can give you a different suggestion. Try to play with Navas instead of Di Maria. If you didn’t like Di Maria you can try the spanish. He is very good to run into the area box. He is very very fast. With him you can stand with Pepe and João Pereira. They are all very cheap. The BPL players are too expensive.

         + he is just a little bit better on defending.
         Im pretty happy with my team and thx for the help!

           We still don’t understand how M. Reus link with the others. He has no connections. We know that you already have chemistry 100 but it is important to have good individual chemistry. In fact, it is more important.

From what i have and with about 60,000 plus the players to spend what would you to improve the squad ? I use pace and crossing when attacking and strength in numbers defending.

     Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated thanks

       Hi Patrick.
       You gave us enough details to help you.
       First of all: why do you spend coins on fitness cards ? Our advice is to have two good teams. When one plays, the other rest. We never spend coins in any consumable card (except contracts). You will see that you can save a lot.
       About your team, there’s no much to say. You already have our BPL dreamteam. Almost…
       We don’t love Valencia but you don’t have any RM/RW/RF better on BPL. And if you love pace, you love him for sure.
       We don’t love that formation either because Aguero, Hazard and other good players don’t fit on it. But we understand why you chose it: fast RB/LB to cross, good defense and wide attack.
       You can not improve much more this formation without going to IF players which we don’t recommend. They are too expensive. Try to improve your bench in order to have a rotation system or migrate to a hybrid squad.

           Hi.
           Maicon worth the money if you are rich. You can use that money to improve your second team. It’ probably more important.
           5 star rating is the higher. You can’t improve it. We do not know if we understood…

     i run a 4-3-2-1 formation and have had my share of ups and downs with this team and wanted to know if i should resell and go for a bpl team or la ligaments team. This team is great but very weak when attacking because they lack a physical presence when attacking and surprisingly defense has poor man marking which makes it difficult on neuer soo was wonering if i should go with a la liga
     La liga team or a bpl team unless you have suggestions in helping my team unless

       You have a very nice brazilian team.
       If you want to move, try BBVA. BPL is too expensive.
       You should know that you will spend more coins to have a BBVA team as good as the one you have right now. The difference is that with La Liga team, you can always improve because there are more quality players.

     Hi guys,

     Thanks for the great guide.
     I have a BPL squad in 4-3-3 formation. Like to play down the flanks, cross or cut in.
     My team:

     De Gea
     Cole
     Vermalen
     Koscielny
     Sagna
     Silva
     Ramires
     Arteta
     Young
     Hernandez
     Walcott

     I have about 70k in the bank. Also thinking about selling Silva as he as not as good for me as he expensive. Where should I spend the money on upgrades? ST, LW, CM, CB, GK?

     Thanks

       Hi.
       You have a nice team that can be improved.
       For us, Arteta, Young, Walcott and Hernandez are the weakest players.
       If you don’t like Silva, you can sell him. Your new budget will be something like 120k plus the money of some other sells. With that money you can buy Tévez, Bale, Valencia, Touré and Mata (or Nasri).
       If you love to play down the flanks, Bale is a must have. Tévez is better than Hernandez and he is not slow. Touré is one our favourites. He defends and attacks.

       Hi.
       We don’t have much to say since you already have probably the best BPL team you can afford.
       Lloris is better than Hart but he not worth so many more coins.
       The defenders are all OK. Strikers too. The only thing we don’t have sure is Mata. If you liked, keep with him. If you don’t, you have another players to that position. Nasri is one of them. But there are people who use Tévez in that position.
       Best regards.

       1) Slow CB’s
       One of them should be faster.
       2) CDM
       You should save to buy Ramires. He is much better.
       You can do better than changing Torres by Suarez: sell Torres and buy Tévez. But it is only our opinion…

       Hi.
       We think that you are talking about “Barclays Premier League Squad for FIFA 13 Ultimate Team with an Unlimited Budget”. We never build this entire team. But we bought almost every player of that team. Our team is this.
       We build our squad very early and the prices are now much more accessible.
       We pay something like: Lloris 60k, Vidic 105k, Kompany 55k, Maicon 50k *, Ashley Cole 20k, Touré 50k, David Silva 70k, Valencia 10k *, Hazard 110k, Rooney 150k, Aguero 150k. * are players that we didn’t buy.

       Assuming that you have one goalkeeper the second option is the best one. Touré, Silva and Tevez are our choices.
       Later, when you got more coins, you can try Kompany and Aguero. And then Bale.

       The attack is very good. If you get some more coins, you can try to buy David Silva to Kagawa place. Since you said you play down the wings, it shouldn’t be a priority.
       We don’t have any improvement for a low budget because you already have want you want: LB/RB with high pace, RM/LM with high pace too, Touré to give defensive support to CB’s and top strikers.

       Hi.
       You have a nice squad but we have to make you a question: is it so important to keep English players on the 11? We are asking this because we love some of the players of your bench. More than some of the 11.
       Kompany is a good example. You already justify that pace is not the more important. In that case, Rio and Terry are OK as CB’s.
       Keeping David Silva on the bench is a bit more difficult to understand. It’s up to you, of course, we think that he is much better than Lampard and Gerrard. If you are concending many goals, Touré could be a good option.
       But the more important is how you play with these players. If you are winning, you don’t have to change anything.
       Good games!

       Hi.
       In our opinion Toure would be the more important improvement on your team. And we explain why. You don’t have fast CB’s and a good CDM with high defensive work rate, as Touré, will help them. In other hand, he will make your team more compact, helping Mata and others.
       Mata and Hernandez could be the next to be replaced. Maybe by Silva and Tevez…

           Great improvements.
           Besides Touré, Kompany was a great buy. Now you have a fast defence.
           You bought Hazard too but it is stange to have a player as Bale on the bench. If you sold him, it’s OK. But if you still have him, you can try to put him on Valencia place.
           With 140k to spend you can try to buy Silva and Aguero to Mata and Hernandez place. What a team!

     This mite bee a silly question but I just cant get i out of my head.

     Scott Parker VS Yaya Tourè

     An easy choice for 9 of 10 players.
     But recently I tought i through and i just gotta ask u guys. is it in my head that I play better with Parker then Yaya? can a 82 overall beat a 86 overall?
     maybe ha think to much when i have the ball with Yaya, he has much much better stats than parker.
     Understand the question?, is it possible that Parker are better for me??? :S

       Hi swedish FIFA player! There are so many FIFA players on Sweden.
       The answer is yes. When we suggest players, we always say that the best player to us can be the worst to you. And you confirm us.
       For example. On FUT 12 we played better with Lavezzi IF than with Ronaldo. The overall is only a number.

       The best players for us can be the worst for you.
       You have a balanced team.
       You can take a look to Nani, Hart or David Silva. In our opinion, the LM should be the priority number one. But only you, analysing your matches, can say if this is true .

     Hi, I was wondering what the best formation is. My current is 4-2-2-2 but I struggle to make crosses and I can never pass too great.

     I was also looking for improvements on my team.

     GK: De Gea
     LB: Cole
     CB: Terry
     CB: Lescott
     RB: M. Richards
     CDM: Gerrard
     CDM: Fellaini
     CAM: Nasri
     CAM: Cazorla/Sessegnon
     ST: RVP
     ST: Torres

     I’m happy with De Gea, I’ve had over 100 matches with no problems but I do intend to buy Hart soon.

     Are there any tips apart from adding Arsenal players since they are in my 4-3-3 arsenal squad. Also I can never seem to score with rvp, I try switching the st positions but Torres usually gets the goal or Balotelli when I bring him on… Sessegnon gets more goals than van Persie!

       Hi.
       We don’t know your budget but Kompany would be a good improvement to your defence.
       About RVP, if you can’t score with him, sell him and buy another one (Tevez for example). There are no best players. There are players that suit better on our teams.
       In our opinion Touré to DCM should be the great improvement to your team. And if you love ball control, David Silva can be the right choice to Nasri place for only more 10k coins.

       There are better formations than 4-2-2-2 to crosses. 4-4-2 and 4-1-2-1-2 are good examples.

         Another question, if I were to buy Toure who should I put on the bench, Fellaini with a great heading and decent pace or Gerrard with all around good stats but not a great stamina?

         The same question with Kompany, Terry has amazing defence & header but Lescott has a better attack.

         By the way do you know of any great ways to make coins fast?

           Hi.
           It is your decision. We think that Toure can replace Gerrard and Kompany can replace Lescott. Why? Because Toure defends well but also attacks very well and because it isn’t very important that a CB attacks well.
           The best way to make coins is to make trading.

     Hello,
     First I have to say, this is a great site! It helped me a lot! Keep up the good work!

     Next, I would like some suggestions, because I struggle with making the decisions to buy some players in addition to this 4-1-2-1-2 squad:

     GK: Lloris
     RB: Maicon
     CB: Kompany
     CB: Vermaelen
     LB: Cole
     CDM: Y. Touré
     RM: Valencia
     LM: Hazard
     CAM: David Silva
     ST: Tevez
     ST: Aguero

     Bench: Courtois (GK), Diakité (CB), Tioté (CDM), Nani (RM), Donovan (LM), Nasri (CAM), Defoe (ST), Kolarov (LB), Konko (RB)

     Now my questions:
     Diakité –> Vidic, Kaboul or Luiz. I see Vidic has 89, but he hasn’t got the pace & that’s what worries me. Your opinion?
     Nani –> Bale? and put Nani as RM? Or should I buy Walcott as RM?
     Donovan –> Walcott? (see previous question)
     Kolarov –> Clichy or Evra? I kinda like the pace of clichy but the overall stats of Evra are better..
     Konko –> Richards?
     Defoe –> Balotelli?

     I struggle with making the decision between pace and overall stats..
     Thx for helping me out!

       Hi. Thanks.
       It is a difficult decision: pace vs overall stats.
       The answers to your questions:
       1) We bought Vidic to our team but we already sold him. He is very good defence. The best one. But he is slow and we conceded many goals for him. Kaboul seems a good option. The BPL don’t have high quality CB’s in our opinion.
       2) It is important to have good individual chemistry, 9 if possible. But for this position maybe it’s better to put a good player out of position, as Bale, than keeping with a ordinary player as Walcott. If you get 7 with Bale (try with Nani) as RM, you should try that option.
       3) Walcott to the bench can be a good option. Not for the 11.
       4) In our opinion, Clichy. We have Ashley Cole, that is the LB with best overall in FUT 13, and Clichy. And we can say that is not a easy choice.
       5) Richards and Balotelli seems ok to the bench.

       About your team:
       We noted that you are making one great thing: you improve your bench instead doing that to your first 11. It is very important because you will be able to rest some players when others are playing. This is a very smart option.
       About your team, you have almost the perfect BPL team. RM is the weakest position. Rooney are the only good player that you don’t have.

         It’s amazing you keep answering so fast to all these questions, not only mine. Just amazing..

         Owh well, that solved a lot of questions for me.. Now I’ll buy Clichy, Balotelli and Kaboul.

         But you say I should put Bale as RM. On SoFIFA, his card says RM isn’t one of his favourite positions. Does this matter? Does he still play good as RM? Moreover, Nani’s card says RM is his second favorite position. And if you should choose between Nani and Bale for RM, which one would you choose?
         On the bench for RM, you say Walcott, so you state he’s better than Valencia?

         Next.. I forgot to mention Kyle Walker for RB. So I still have to choose between Walker and Richards. If no other players are on the team (so just looking at the player himself), which one would you choose?
         If I look to the whole team, I have Kompany so Richards would be better.. On the other hand, I could have Kaboul (Spurs) and Bale (Spurs), so that links better with Walker.. Oh I hate these tough decisions Thank God I found this site.

         I think the same way about the bench. I try to keep my players 90+ fitness. If they drop lower, I swap them with my bench. But is that a wise decision? Shouldn’t I buy Rare Bronze Fitness (+10) cards, so I can play with my best squad every time. Or do you think this is a waste?

         Sincerely

           Owh and I forgot another thing.. You say the only good player I don’t have is Rooney.. But I wonder why everybody says he’s so good. The 78 pace as an ST bothers me. Now I have Tevez which has 84 pace. Is this a big difference? Isn’t Rooney to slow? I think Kompany, Kaboul, M’Bia, Vermaelen and lot’s of LB and RB can catch him easily. Moreover, Tevez has a great shot as well ..
           So my question is: should I buy Rooney, or should I buy Balotelli? I like the pace in front, but I know from experience a long distance shot fits my play good as well..
           Thanks for answering

             Hi.
             It depends of your budget.
             Rooney isn’t a very fast player. True. But he has another skills. He shoots better and he is very strong. If money isn’t a problem, Rooney is better than Balotelli.

           21 January 2013 at 23:39

           Hi.
           Forget SoFIFA. Seriously. In FUT 13 it doesn’t work like that. All the players that are LM, as Nani and Bale, have the same second position and third position. It is false that Nani plays better than Bale on right side. It is a very complex subject that we will explain better very clearly on our chemistry guide that we will publish very soon.
           If is is matter? Yes. Instead having Bale or Nani with individual chemistry 9, they will have 7 or 6, depending of their links. We think that is better a Bale with 7 than Walcott with 9. But it’s up to you.
           Richard defends well and Kyle is faster. You should decide what is more important to you. About their links, we think both will get 9 individual chemistry. If it happens, it is the same to put one or other.
           Finally: It is a waste. Don’t spend money on training cards.

       Hi.
       “I like to rotate my squad so a strong 22 is required” – Very good decision.
       Our suggestions depend of many things: your preferences, your style of play, etc..
       In our opinion, you should have a better LB (Cole, Clichy or Evra). Also, David Silva can be a good improvement in your midfield. These are the two main problems of your squad. But you have a good team, with a fantastic ST.

         I like to play down the wings and crossing but I find my midfield key to set up with through balls and late runs. Think I will go for Silva and remove Wilshere (he doesn’t have the shooting capabilities I require). Also who do you think is best between Evra and Cole, don’t know whether Cole is worth the extra 10,000 coins or so.
         Aguero is the best striker in Prem in game in my opinion. Has a fantasic all round game that I require from a striker in my team, recommend him as a must buy

           Evra vs Cole ? It’s a good question. But we think that there is a better one: Evra vs Cole vs Clichy. It isn’t easy to say which one is better. We need to play with the three to decide.
           And yes, we love Aguero too.

       We love the GK and the ST’s but you can improve a bit the others positions. For us, the most important is to replace Parker by Touré. You will see that he is worth every coin. And he plays on a very important position.
       All other improvements will cost you many coins. So, this is the only improvement that we think that you should do as soon as possible.

     it’s important to say i’m noob in FUT and i started only 3 days ago. I don know what to buy and i don’t know if my team is good, or what can i do to make it better with good cheap players.
     I play with a 4-3-3 with:

     De gea
     Glen johnson – Cahill – Smalling – Gibbs
     Barry – Scholes – Wilshere
     Sturridge – Berbatov – Chamberlein

     i think i have troubles with my midcamp or not? what can i buy? i like keeping the ball to the box or keeping the ball in my mid camp waiting for a space to make a “deep ground pass”. and i rarely shoot from outside the box. the formation is good? i think it’s a good idea playing with a 4-4-2 too, which is better in your opinion? That’s all, i aprecciate your answer. Bye.

       Hi!
       Until now we understood everything that people with “bad english” said.
       If you are starting FUT we can advice you: it is a bit more complex that most people think. You should read our articles. We explain almost everything, including how to earn coins, chemistry, etc…
       About the formation, you should try to take a look to our formations guide. 4-4-2 is better for who is starting but if you feel comfortable with 4-3-3 go ahead. It is important to try some formations before choosing one but it also important to take this decision quickly because you will need to apply formations cards to your players (or buy them with the right formation) and changing it cost you a lots of coins.
       About your team, we prefer Dzeko or Cisse to ST. Berbatov is a bit slow and on FUT 13, as you will discover, pace is very very important.
       If you decide to try 4-4-2, take a look to Jermaine Pennant and to Matthew Etherington. They are really cheap players that we enjoyed.

       Hi.
       You can’t compare two players only by their six basic attributes. There are more than 30 others items to compare. For example: Balotelli has 4 star weak foot and 4 star skills and Defoe has 3 star for both. Defoe has better defensive work rate. Balotelli has more 22 points on Strength. And so on.
       The important when you are choosing a player is to decide which is the most important to you: pace, star skills, shoot, work rate, stamina, etc…
       For us, Balotelli is better.You can make Balotelli a cAM applying him a ST-CF card and then a CF-CAM card.

             So the 6 attributes or skills that are shown are essentially the most important though? Also by 4 star skills do you mean skills that you can do by pressing multiple buttons at once or are they just easy to do skills?

             Hi, Bill.
             You are thinking well.
             1) Yes, the 6 attributes or skills that are shown are essentially the most important. But there are others that can be important too depending of your style of play.
             2) Yes, 4 star skills are advanced skills (5 star is the higher). You can see here the list of 4 and 5 star skills players.
             3) To convert a CAM to ST you will need to buy and apply the following training cards: ST-CF and then CF-CAM. You can find these cards on auction – training search – position.

       Hi.
       We never played with Balotelli as a CDM or a CAM because we think that he will not be good in these positions.
       A CDM needs to have good defensive attributes, and Balotelli are very weak on defence. A CAM need to have a good passing. This is not the strongest thing on Balotelli either.
       If you want to try it, you can make him as CDM applying him ST-CF, CF-CAM, CAM-CM and CM-CDM, and you can make him as CAM applying ST-CF and CF-CAM.

       We think that the most important thing is to ask: what will I make with my team and how much can I get to my budget ?
       If you think that you can invest something like 600k coins on your team, you can try BPL. Otherwise, you should try Bundesliga. For the same price, we think that is better to have a 86 overall Bundesliga team than a 84 overall BPL team.

       Easy one. David Silva. But it is only our opinion.
       There are some St’s that can work fine as CAM too (Rooney, RVP, Tévez).

     Hi, i started FUT today. I read all your guides so i’m not soo noob, but something are pretty hard, heh?

     I took your advices and my squad is, with a 4-4-2:

     Szczęsny
     Rafael – Dawson – Jagielka – Ekkoto
     Pennant – Bronze guy – Bronze guy – Bronze guy
     Sturridge – Bronze guy

     As you can see, i have troubles in the mid. I can’t find Rosicky or Sahin anywhere. I don’t have money so i’m saving coins to buy Giggs or Ruiz, but i think is a bit slow.. isn’t that a problem? (i like to keep the ball sometimes, but also some fast – vertical play in some moments is part of my style. Which player do you recommend to that? as alternatives to Giggs and Ruiz (cheap players please xD).
     Forward, i really like Sturridge, and Cissé or Dzeko are out of my wallet in this moment, what can i buy? Sturridge is fine for now, or not?
     That’s all for now. Thank you very much for this page, it really helps.

       Hi Bruno.
       If you started FUT today, you need to be patient. You can’t build a great team in one day.
       Take your time, PLAY, save coins and then you will be able to buy some stars. If you have not already did, be sure to read our article about how to begin FUT 13. It is important to plan very well whet you will do with your team.
       About your questions: pace is a problem, yes. Without pace players, it’s more difficult to win. The players we recommend are the players that you can afford. James Milner can be a good option to CM. He is under 1k, have good pace and pass, and his Work rates are both high. Sturridge is fine.
       Good games!

         I have winned the division 1 a few times now. I learned how to play well and that’s all thanks to you. This page helped me a lot !!

         Now i have a 4-4-2 with

         Cech
         Sagna – Kompany – Vermaelen – Cole
         Valencia – Nasri – Yaya – Ashley Young
         Tevez – Podolski

         Is good right? i love it. But i think is very poor in my LM and RM. do you know what can i do? I’m doing well with the other players (I tried David Silva for Nasri and it’s pretty good but doesn’t work for me in my play style)
         But i think that LM and RM are pretty weak. Especially Valencia

           Hi. Thank you very much.
           About your team, it doesn’t matter what we think. If it works for you, great.
           In fact, we think that you have a good team. RM/LM are the weakest positions. You have better LM players (1st Bale, 2nd Hazard, 3rd Nani) but probably they are too expensive for your budget. RM BPL players is a bit more complex. Valencia is the best one (except Mata IF). We think that you can’t improve your team without more coins.

     De gea
     Rafael – Vertonghen – Jagielka – Ekotto
     A. Lennon – Cabaye – Wilshere – Etherington
     Cissé – Welbeck

     is that good? what do you recommend me to buy now? i feel Ekotto – Etherington is my weak part, do you recommend buying Chamberlein for LM and Gibbs? I don’t have money to Clichy or Cole xd. Also, it’s really importante Glen Johnson? i’m doing well with Rafael, but i don’t know really. Lennon > Pennant, right? i have them both and i like them equally.
     I think i’m going to buy Dzeko now, i have some troubles with Welbeck and his defense rating, sometimes i see Cisse very alone in attack.

       If you are going fine with Rafael, you don’t need yo buy Glen Johnson. The same happens with Pennant and Lennon.
       Welbeck has a high defensive work rate and a high attacking work rate. That’s why he is out of position so often. Dzeko should be your next buy. LB/LM can wait…

       In the back line, you can try Clichy instead of Ashley Cole. We think you will like him.
       On the midfield, Nasri can take the Cazorla place.
       Your strikers are fast players with good shoot. In the future you can try Aguero if you have enough coins.

       Hi.
       There are great teams on division 1 and 2. You don’t have a bad team but, if you are not a pro, it will be a bit difficult to win the title.
       We don’t know how you play or your preferences but we will try to help you.
       You have a almost perfect low-budget BPL team. To improve it, you will need to save some coins. Ramires, for example, can be a important player into your squad. Trading is the best way to collect coins. You should try it.
       You should also verify how are the morale and the physic of your players.

       BPL is very expensive. To have David Silva on it, you should try BBVA. Take a look to our guide.
       For your budget, our suggestion is:
       Diego Alves (4k), João Pereira (2k), Pepe (18k), Pique (20k), Alba (22k), Xabi (15k), Navas (9k), David Silva (53k), David Villa (7k), Benzema (47k) and Falcão (37k)

         Individual chemirty 7 is not so bad but the good is to get 9. In order to do that, you will need to buy some BPL players. And it wil be a more expensive solution. You can replace Benzema and Falcão by Aguero and Tévez.

     I like Silva, but I think it’s a waste to put Rooney on the bench. Otherwise I like the pace for my ST’s so I don’t think Rooney is a better option as ST than Balo/Tevez. Or do you think otherwise?

       We had the same problem with our team. Aguero vs RVP vs Tevez vs Rooney. The CAM position is for David Silva. But the other two positions is a bit more difficult.
       After some matches, we choose to put Rooney + Aguero on the 11. Pace is very important but it isn’t everything. It depend of what is more important to you. We chose Rooney.

       First of all, you need a LB. If you don’t want to spend much coins with this, try Jose Enrique or Baines.
       Vermaelen can be a good cheap improvement too.
       The starting 11 it’s up to you. It depends of your preferences, your play style, etc… In our opinion CAM’s are Podolski +1 and ST’s are Balotelli +1. Defoe shoots better but Hernandez has better heading. To us, Gerrard is beter than Lampard.

       Hi. Thanks.
       300k coins is a very good budget. Let’s spend them.
       You already answer to your own question. The defence is OK. You can change something on the attack. Aguero is the untouchable.
       Pace is really important but it isn’t everything. To us, the right choice would be David Silva – Rooney – RVP. But if pace is almost everything to you, you should try as you said: Nasri – David Silva – Tévez.
       Our final advice: buy one by one and try them. There’s nothing better than play with a player to see if he fits on our team or not.

     Also pace seems to be the main asset of a 41212 team and really fast players such as sessegnon and nzogbia seem to be more effective than mata and nani… I’m unsure of how to use them to the full advantage.

       It will become awesome with Aguero. He is probably the best striker of BPL. We love him.
       If you have enough coins, Bale can be a good improvement too since you love pace. Are you happy with Ashley Cole? If not, try Clichy. David Silva isn’t fast but he is much better than Mata.

       Hi!
       It depends of your preferences, your style of play or your budget.
       You have good defenders and good strikers. We think that the weakest positions are on the midfield. Your CM’s are a bit slow. You should try Ramires. He is fast and he will make your team more compact.
       If you want to build a better team you need more coins. Or, as you said, you can sell your BPL team and buy a BBVA one. It’s cheaper. With the same money you can build a better team.

         i think I am going to stick to my team. But, I want to change the formation. I have a very fast team, but am wondering what formation out of these is best for a fast team that likes to do thru balls?
         4-1-2-1-2 4-2-3-1 5-2-1-2

           4-1-2-1-2
           4-2-3-1
           5-2-1-2
           Which one do you suggest with the team I posted above?

             Hi. You can’t play on a 4-1-2-1-2 with these players, since you don’t have any RM or LM.
             Our choice is 5-2-1-2. It fits better with your players and it is suitable for fast attacks.

       Balotelli sign by AC Milan. True. It’s official.
       But the players with Balotelli Manchester City cards will continue to have him on their clubs.
       The only difference is that these cards will no longer be available on packs. From now on, Balotelli will be released on Milan cards.

     I play 4-1-2-1-2
     Hart
     Richards Kompany Vermalean Cole
     Toure
     Valencia Bale
     Silva
     Ageuro and Rooney

     The problem is people still get past my defence -
     Always have a lot of goals in matches
     I could buy VIDIC but that isn’t going to solve anything
     My goalkeeper is superb – lollris was too small in height and couldn’t save most penalties even if you dived the right way and long shots also

     I need a good cb that runs fast any recommendations please and also advise on any others would be great

       Hi.
       Your team is almost the BPL dreamteam. Congratulations.
       About your defence problems, you are absolutely righ: Vidic will not solve anything. He is brilliant but he is too slow too.
       The right thing to do is to change your formation to avoid your opponent pass through your defence so easily. We can imagine that it is not a good solution to you because you already have a formation which you like to play and changing it cost you a lot of coins. But it is the right decision.
       It isn’t easy to solve this problem with players because you already have the best two BPL CB’s that you can have. You can try to buy Sergio Ramos + Pepe + Casillas but it will affect a bit of your chemistry (think about it!).
       About the other players, in our opinion, Valencia is the weakest one. Some people put Bale on the right side and Hazard on the left side but it isn’t the perfect solution.
       You should try to think on a hybrid squad.
       Regards.

       Hi. Sure. But it depends of your style of play, your preferences, your budget, etc…
       The first thing that we have to say is about your CB’s. They are good but a bit slow. Vermaelen is a good cheap option for that place. Playing with only 3 defenders you need that they have good pace.
       Rooney is superb but for the same money some players prefer Aguero. It’s up to you. We you get some more coins you should try Bale to Young place. He is superb!

       Hi Jordan. Nice to have you here with us.
       You have a fast team for your budget.
       Maybe you could try Vermaelen as CB. He is a bit more expensive but it’s so difficult to get more 4k coins. He will be a great improvement to your team.
       If pace is almost everything to you we can’t suggest you anything more.

       Hi.
       It isn’t easy to help you since it depends of your style of play, your preferences and your budget. The best players to us can be the worst to you.
       On the defence you suggest to take a look to Vermaelen. He is better than Skrtel. We know that it is a bit more expensive but it isn’t so difficult to get 4k coins.
       We also think that you have very good players on the bench. Some of them are better than the main 11.

         I just bought Vermaelen for 4,3k and I got to say that it was a really good advise.
         Which players do you think of when you said I had better players on my bench them in my starting11?
         My budget ain’t really a problem…
         When I play i use my wingers the most.
         I am thinking of selling Torres and buy Tevez insted, is that smart?

       A RF can be modified to RW and to RM. In a 4-1-2-1-2, you can apply RF-RW and RW-RM card to your Walcott. It should be cheaper to sell RF Walcott and buy a RW Walcott (if you get RM Walcott better).

       It isn’t easy. Your team is very similar to our team. And we have Falcão too. But it is very difficult to get more than 6 on his individual chemistry. We did exactly the same you did: Navas as RM connecting with Silva and with Falcão. But it isn’t enough.

     Hi! First, I’d like to say this is a really good page for people interested in FUT, and I’m really looking forward to any future articles on coin-making. Now, I’m builiding a, basically, EPL team with Benzema. My first squad for it is the following:

     Formation: 4-1-2-1-2
     GK: Mandanda
     CB’s: Kaboul/Koscielny
     RB: Walker
     LB: Clichy
     CDM: Tiote
     LM: Bale
     RM: Ben Arfa
     CAM: Nasri
     ST’s: Remy/Benzema

     As you can see, it’s a team that doesn’t really shines for it’s defensive unit (I’m thinking of Sagna for RB, but I’d have to change him from another squad) but right now I don’t have the coins to buy someone like Lloris. Apart from the “obvious” change of Tioté to Touré, how could I improve the team, without changing the strikers, Nasri and Bale? I was thinking in Toulalan for CDM and then playing with some CB partnership like Rami-Pepe, but then I’d have chemistry issues with one of the fullbacks…well, I hope to receive some advice, and thanks in advance!

       Hi.
       We have so many subjects to our articles. Coin-making is the largest and we decided to split into several articles. Every week we will publish one or two articles about this theme. The most interesting ones are saved for the end.
       ” “obvious” change of Tioté to Touré” You read our commentaries!
       Building a team with different nationalities and leagues, and keeping a good chemistry, it’s a big challenge. And you are going well with it.
       If you want to put Toulalan as CDM and CB partnership Rami-Pepe, you will need to buy a BBVA golakeeper as Madrid’s Diego López or as Valencia’s Diego Alves. Both give to your team a weak and a strong link. More important is the fullbacks problem. You can try Joao Pereira as RB. He is very good and connect very well with Pepe or with Rami. Sagna is a better option since he connects with everybody.
       Regards

         You got me there, I read like…half of the commentaries on this post haha
         Back to the team, in a sense, Touré is (at least on paper, haven’t had the opportunity to play with him) an evolved Tioté, and it’s like…the “natural” improvement. Although I’ve been thinking in the Pepe – Joao Pereira link, and I got this:

         GK: Diego Lopez (Madrid)
         CB’s: Kompany/Pepe
         RB: Joao Pereira
         LB: Clichy
         CDM: Touré
         RM: Ben Arfa
         LM: Bale
         ST’s: Remy/Benzema

         With those exact players, everyone remains on 9 chemistry (but, say, if I put Tioté instead of Touré, both his and Kompany’s chemistry goes down to 7) although I’m finding it hard, budgetwise, to complete that squad. Anyways, thanks a lot for your advice, I found it really helpful, and I will surely get back to you once in a while for help

       With 30k we suggest to sell Lampard and buy Touré. He is a great player that will make your team more solid thanks to his high defensive and attacking work rate. It will be a great improvement unless you don’t conceded many goals.

       Hi.
       Out of Nani and Bale, the better one is Ashley Young. Clint Dempsey and Matthew Etherington are good cheap players.
       You can hire a LW to LM position. The better ones are Arshavin, Gervinho and Malouda. And Hazard, of course.

         Thanks for the quick reply. You said ‘Out of nani and bale, the better one is ashley young’. Did you mean that instead of nani or bale i should get ashley young or is this a mistake and you missed out who was better out of bale and nani by accident?

     And at cb in 4-5-1, should i get terry or vermaelen because terry is rated higher but from looking at their stats vermaelen seems to have better stats. Who would you recommend, or is there someone else i could get

       In our opinion, Vermaelen is better. Much better. Having a better rating doesn’t mean anything. Terry is a great defender but he is too slow.

       We love hybrid teams.
       We don’t know your preferences, your style of play, your budget, etc… It isn’t easy to help you without that.
       Some suggestions that we can give you:
       1) Navas is, at least, as good as Sanchez and connects better with Alonso/Silva.
       2) Pepe isn’t playing at his best as RB. Even if you have team chemistry 100.

       If you have coins to invest:
       2) Bale is better than Nani and the effect on the chemistry is the same.
       3) Aguero is better than RVP and the effect on the chemistry is the same.
       4) Sergio Ramos is better than Pique.
       5) Casillas is better than Valdez.

       Xavi is a good option. We don’t agree with Vidic since he is too slow. Great CB but too slow.

           It’s a bit complex to explain it here. We will publish a chemistry guide very soon.
           Until there we can try to give you some tips.
           To get a good chemistry, there are more solutions than putting players of same league. It results too with players of same nationality. It is a bit more difficult but you can do it too with players of different leagues. Just group them, two by two, with hyper links (same nationality and club).

     Hi,
     I was wondering if you can recommend the best players to for the blank positions in this 4-5-1 bpl team, and any improvements on the players I already have:

     RB: Maicon RCB: Kompany LCB: Vermaelen LB: Cole
     CM:
     RM: Valencia LM:
     CAM: CAM: David Silva
     ST:

       We totally agree with you: In Form cards are too expensive. Not good value for money.
       About your team we don’t know what is your play style and your preferences but we will try to help you anyway.
       Let’s put names on the blank spaces: CM – Touré LM – Bale (or even Hazard) ST – Aguero
       You have a nice team. Vermaelen and Valencia are the weakest players. You don’t have any other good players on BPL to these places. To improve this team even more you will need to turn it on a Hybrid squad. See here our BBVA/BPL squad.

Do you think its worth it for the extra money it will cost and also who would you recommend as the cam here,david silva or rooney and who would you recommend as the second striker alongside aguero?

             In our opinion, if you feel much better with 4-1-2-1-2 and you have no great difficulties to get more coins, then you should do it.
             We think that David Silva can play as CAM and Rooney as ST alonside Aguero. He isn’t fast but he has other great skills.

       Hi.
       You have a nice team for your budget. Toure will be a great improvement to it and RVP too. But we think that you are thinking well saving for Toure first.
       There is no big secrets on trading. There’s no better cards to trade too. We will explain better in some articles that we will publish soon.
       Until there, you can try to buy some cards from 1am to 9am and sell it from 4pm to 10pm. It’s a very goo way to make profit.
       Final note: our team is THIS one.

       Hi.
       We love hybrid squads but we have not sure if yours are all right. You should verify if you have team chemistry 100 and, most important, if your individual chemistry is, at least, 7 for all your players. We think it’s not. For example, Sneijder doesn’t link well with anyone. We can’t suggest improvements since you should rebuild your team from the start. They will not play all they know. Sorry.

     I have about 250k coins after recently selling my bpl team – which I have done a countless number of times since I started playing FUT. Any suggestions for a good bpl formation / squad? I was thinking something like a 4-1-2-1-2? That seemed like the best experience I had with using bpl teams except I destroyed the team after I started to concede a lot of goals and go on a losing streak.
     I was thinking:
     ST Balotelli-Aguero
     CAM: Nasri
     LM: Bale
     RM: Valencia
     CDM: Toure
     LB: Clichy OR Cole
     CB: Luiz / Kaboul
     RB: Richards OR Walker

     I would love to hear your suggestions for this team and what I should do!

       Hi.
       Nice to have you here with us.
       The first thing to decide is which formation you will use. If you are getting a good experience from 4-1-2-1-2, continue with it. It is a good formation for a BPL.
       About your team, you should start by hiring a GK.
       We have no great recommendations about your team. It is great as it is. Both RB and both LB fit on this team. The only thing that we don’t agree 100% is the CAM. Nasri is great but David Silva is better. But he can be better to us and not for you. He is a bit slower but he has a great ball control. He is a more expensive but for us he worth all that coins.

     Hi
     First of all, Thanks for you great website. I learnt too many things from you. I have one question. My formation in ultimate team is 4-3-3. And this is my squad right now:
     GK Hart
     RB Sagna
     CB Terry
     CB Lescott
     LB Baines
     CM(Right) Ramires
     CM(Middle) Toure
     CM(Left) Wilshere
     RW Walcott
     ST van.Persie
     LW Arshavin
     I played more than 15 games with this squad but RVP only scored once and he’s not playing well in my squad. But Arshavin play very well and scored 13 goals so far(as a LW). Walcott plays very well too and make so many chances for other players and scores many goals. But i don’t know why RVP doesn’t play well. when i use Balotelli instead of him as strike he play better and score more goals. My first question is what kind of striker should I use in this formation to score more goals? I mean I thought RVP is great and he really was(in my former squads and formations) but in this formation he doesn’t play well. And my second question is do you think if I buy Rooney (as ST) and use him instead of RVP could he score more goals and be a better striker than RVP?

       First of all, thanks. We work hard to bring you good original content about FIFA Ultimate Team.
       You are thinking well. There’s no better player than others. RVP can be good for some formations and for the play style of some gamers, but not for everyone. If you have enough coins, the best thing to do is to try some players and see who fits better on your team.
       We think that Aguero is the right striker to a 4-3-3 BPL team. It is important to have good pace since he is alone and a bit far from the RW/LW. RVP is not so fast and it is the same problem that Rooney has. But he can work for you. Try him. You can always sell him and buy another one. Tévez is also a cheap solution for that position on a 4-3-3 but we think that Aguero is the best one.

       Hi.
       Starting by the end. When you say that Bale doesn’t mess with your chemistry you are talking about keeping team chemistry 100. But the individual chemistry is more important than that. You can play with bale on the right side, and we understand why you do that, but be careful: his individual chemistry should be, at least, 7.
       About your team, you have almost the perfect BPL team. For us, the weakest players are Agger and Suarez. In our opinion, David Silva is better. But it is only an opinion.

       To build the best hybrid squad possible, we need time. And we don’t have it now.
       We will try a basic hybrid for you.
       Buffon (50k), João Pereira (2k), Pepe (15k), Chiellini (30k), Alba (15k), Navas (8k), Xabi (13k), David Silva (40k), David Villa (6k).
       We didn’t test it but we think that it will have 100 team chemistry and individual chemistry 9. And yes, we know that there are no strikers. You can put anyone you want and it will not affect the chemistry. Just one rule: choose two players of same club and same nationality (example: Tévez and Aguero).

         Thanks for your attention. Two more question. I built my new BPL squad with 4-4-1-1 formation. Here it is:
         GK Hart
         LB Evra
         CB Terry
         CB Lescott
         RB Sagna
         LM Young
         CM Fellaini
         CM Wilshere
         RM Valencia
         CF David Silva
         ST RVP

         What do you think about my squad? I mean you think what should I change in this? and my second question is do you think for CF if I use Rooney instead of David Silva my squad get any better? I think with myself that Silva has better dribbling skills and better passing ability. But his shoots are not better than Rooney. In general view David Silva is a very creative playmaker and midfielder but not the best in front of the goal and Wayne Rooney is one of the bests in front of the goal but not very creative and good as a midfielder. A Central Forward(CF) should have both of these attributes and I don’t know which one should I choose. What do you think? David Silva or Wayne Rooney as CF in my team?

           Hi again.
           You have a good BPL team. But you can improve it. Vermaelen, for example, is very cheap and can be a good addition.
           About the CF, you already said everything. You should decide what is more important to you. We don’t shoot far from the goal, so we prefer David Silva since he is more creative. But your play style can be different.
           In our opinion, you can try David Silva as CM and Rooney as CF. Then, you will be able to decide.

     GK – Handanovic
     LB – Cole
     CB – Vermaelen
     CB – Agger
     RB – Sagna
     CAM – Mata

       You are in the right direction, saving for David Silva, Nasri, Rooney and RVP. But don’t forget Touré. He plays a lot.
       You can also try Vermaelen. Cheap and better than your CB’s.

       Our suggestions depends of your play style and your preferences. But we will try.
       You have a nice team Lbut let’s spend 50k
       You need a pacey CB. Vermaelen is a good choice for most of people (4k).
       On the midfield, Toure will be a great improvement (36k).
       On the attack, if you are going right with Torres, you can leave him on your team. Otherwise, try Tévez that have the same price.
       And you keep with 10k to improve your bench. Rotation is very important on FUT 13.

     Hi guys awesome site
     I currently have this team (4312)
     Lloris
     Maicon Kompany IF Koscielny A.Cole
     Cazorla(CM) Toure Silva(CM)
     Rooney
     Aguero Van Persie

     Subs: Vermaelen, Lampard(CF), Gerrard(CM), Mata(CM), Nasri(CM), Balotelli

     I’m thinking of switching Van Persie and Rooney’s positions, since as a CF with high/high workrates Rooney is out of position on the counter a lot, and van persie has decent passing. Also Rooney is better at heading so he’ll be a good partner for Aguero and won’t be able to get too far back as a ST. Do you guys think this is a good idea? Also is Nasri a better option than Santi? I know pace is important, but Santi’s 5* weak foot and awesome longshots have me divided. Comment and let me know what you think. Thanks

       Hi. Thanks.
       RVP is a good option to CF. We play with him as CM! He has god passing and shoot well outside the box. As you said Rooney is good as CF too but he can get out of position often and has a better heading. He is a good partner to Aguero (they are our strikers).
       If you played with Santi and Nasri and you prefer the first one, who are we to say anything to you? We prefer Nasri.
       You don’t have any more improvements to suggest. Great team by the way.

     Hello again. Here is my new 3-4-2-1 BPL squad.
     GK: De Gea (IF)
     CB: Lescott
     CB: Vermaelen
     CB: Terry
     CM Fellaini
     CM Wilshere
     RM Valencia
     LM Young
     RF Walcott
     LF Arshavin
     ST Rooney
     Bench: Smalling, Johnson, Ramires, Ben Arfa, Balotelli, Gervinho, Mikel Arteta, Ferdinand, Dempsey.
     I have a good team but in every game I can’t score more than 3 or 4 goals and with 3-4-2-1 formation I know I should score more. I thought Rooney would be a great player for this squad but apparently he isn’t and a normal rare player like Gervinho scored more goals than him in this formation and squad. So my question is who should I use instead of Rooney in front of my goal as a Striker? (no matter if he’s not from BPL but his price should be less than 80k)
     Thanks again

     and Aaron Lennon or Valencia? Valencia is a a little bit slower but i think is more complete.. or not? And which LM can you recommend me? better than Ettherington but not very expensive.. I think ashley young is good but it’s too expensive in ps3.. i can’t find it for less than 9k and i can’t afford that right now.

       It depends of your play style and preferences.
       We think that Fellaini is better but if you want to save some coins, Parker will be OK too. They don’t have many differences. Fallaini has better heading which can be important on goal kicks and something like that.
       Arteta is better than Kagawa in almost all the attributes but not in the most important one: pace. Besides that, Kagawa has high attacking work rate what makes him the right choice for you attacking CM.
       Valencia is a better option to RM. he is much better in almost everything. Taking the example of crossing, he has 87 and Lennon only 79.
       Ashley Young is only 6k on PS3. Try to search him again.

       If you are getting problems with the Rami, cause his pace, you can try to get a fastest player as Miranda. Only if you are conceding a lot on counters.
       The midfield and the strikers are OK. If you have enough coins, Ozil can take the Modric place.

       We suggest Ashley Young. For his price, he is the best one.

       In order to make it better you need to transform it in a hybrid squad. But you are fine like you are. You can buy In Form cards too (Kompany, Silva, etc) but, in our opinion, that cards are not good value for money.

       Hi.
       We don’t know your play style, your preferences and your budget. It isn’t easy to advice without that.
       In our opinion you have a good BPL squad. Arfa is the weakest player. We think that Valencia is better.
       There are another thing that you should be careful. You play with only three defenders and all of them have medium or even high attacking work rate. This means that they can be out of position many times.
       If you are going well with Nasri, keep him. Otherwise, you can try Silva, Tévez or RVP for that place.
       Check the players morale to be sure that they not affect your players performance.

         Anyway I was wondering, do you have any recommendations for a formation using a bpl team – also do you think it is better to have wingers or 2 strikers? Lately I have been using Balotelli & Aguero and for me, it seems that Balotelli is scoring more often in most circumstances. Thanks

           Hi.
           There is no better formation. One can be better to us and the other one to you. We think that 4-1-2-1-2 is great for BPL but it is only our opinion.
           The same happens about wingers and strikers. We, for example, love to play with wingers and two strikers (4-4-2).
           When things go well we do not have to change. Keep playing with Balotelli and Aguero.
           Regards

             Thanks for the quick reply again! I have actually used 4-1-2-1-2 twice in a row ( scrapping teams and then coming back… ) Sad thing is I actually used cards on all my 41212 players to get 352! But that’s fine heh I thought 4-4-2 was deemed as a bad formation for attacking or something? Though it is similar to what my favorite team uses – Man U / England’s National team – isn’t it harder to use when facing the usual pace whores etc.? I am definitely looking to get out of the 3 defenders in the back scheme so I will probably try either of these. Since you support my idea of keeping balotelli & aguero – who else would I fill in for a 4-1-2-1 and a 4-4-2? Thanks again! (I kept hart because he seems good/nani/valencia along with aguero & balotelli) Let me know what you think

             You already have almost every players to 4-4-2 or 4-1-2-1-2. You just need Bacary Sagna or Micah Richards to RB, Clichy or Cole to LB and Silva to CAM or CDM. Regards

             21 February 2013 at 21:06

             Would you say its better to use a CAM/CDM than having 2 CM if I usually play against people who are good at skilling / pace whores ( I tend to concede a lot of goals resulting in a long line of losses before I attain a win )
             So 4-1-2-1-2 or 4-4-2
             St: Balotelli (left) Aguero (right)
             LM: Nani RM: Valencia
             CAM: David Silva ( Do you think RVP would be better in the 4-1-2-1-2)
             CDM: Toure
             LB: Cole or Clichy?
             CB: Who? Kaboul? and?
             RB: Richards? Walker? Sagna?
             GK: Hart

             The positions I listed with multiple names are what I am stuck on deciding, who do you prefer for those situations given the other players in the BPL formation?
           • FIFA U Team Administrator says:

             21 February 2013 at 23:24

             There are not right answers. The best to us can be the worst to you.
             We prefer 4-4-2. It works fine if one of the CM’s have high defensive work rate (as Toure, in your case).
             Our choices: Sagna, Kompany, Vermaelen, Cole and David Silva (not RVP).

             22 February 2013 at 02:47

             Thanks I am going to convert to a 4-4-2 team. Just to clarify:
             LEFT TO RIGHT
             ST: Balotelli – Aguero
             LM: Nani
             CM: Toure – Silva
             RM: Valencia
             LB: Cole
             CB: Vermaleon – ( don’t have enough money for anybody yet lol )
             RB: Sagna ( once I get money )
             GK: Hart

             Most of my players, the attackers, are still in a 3-5-2 formation – is it better to sell them and then re-buy them in a 4-4-2 formation? Also do you know of any good websites to buy fifa coins or players from?
           • FIFA U Team Administrator says:

             22 February 2013 at 21:18

             Yes and yes.
             You have a nice team. Check if your players have individual chemistry 9. If they have, you don’t need to waste money on formation cards.
             A 4-4-2 card costs you something like less than 3k. That’s the only thing you need to know to decide if you should re-buy or not.
             Buying coins and players can be extremely dangerous since most of the sellers are not honest. Be careful. We can advise you a seller that you can trust 100%. Just click on the BuyFIFAPlayers banner that we have on this page, on the right side.

             Okay I got Kompany – thanks for the go-ahead for buyfifaplayers – my security suite kept saying it was a phising site so I was unsure, but I did it and got rooney/walcott from them and sold them for coins

             Last question, to finish this team off strong; is maicon worth it or sagna? RB is the last position to fill. Also Why do you say vermalen for cb with kompany? Is he the best partner for him or is vidic?
           • FIFA U Team Administrator says:

             24 February 2013 at 00:26

             Hi.
             Vidic is too slow. He is like a wall. No one passes by him but in counter attacks he loses every time.
             If Sagna didn’t fit on your team, try another one. Maicon is a bit expensive but, if you have enough coins, go ahead.

             Sorry… Just really frustrated with another row of losses with the new team.. Seems like Sagna didn’t do anything, I would always see the opponent’s cf like podolski sprinting past him… Conceeding 3 goals every game

     Hey guys loved your article.

     I play a 4-3-2-1 formation and i really like it, it means i can have 3 strikers who dont run on the wings and instead take shots at goal, as im not really a wide player. i have 100k and will soon have 140k, so who would you recommend to go LF? i need a player with good pace, pass and finish and i cant decide between bale hazard and nani, who would you recommend? i also wanted some extra coins left over to perhaps buy kompany to upgrade me defense and possibly gk

     and also who would you play RF and ST? i have hernandez up front and ben arfa/ sturridge RF, would you recommend anyone else? perhaps IF mata or walcott?

       Hi.
       As LF we recommend Hazard. We really love Bale must he plays better as LM. We agree with the opinion of most of the people: on BPL, Bale is the best LM but Hazard the best LW/LF. Nani is not so good as these two players.
       As ST we recommend Aguero. Since you have not enough coins to him, Tévez would be a great improvement.
       To RF, the BPL don’t have many good quality players. IF Mata is too expensive. Not good value for money. We think that the best option is Valencia but you should try to find him as RW or even better as RF.

     hey guys thanks for your quick reply.
     i got hazard and i absolutely adore him! he’s so fast and has a way better finish than his card says, more like high 90′s.

     forget the money, who would you say is the best LONE ST in the bpl? i have about 50k left over, thinking about replacing sturridge with valencia which leaves me about 45k, and i dont mind saving for for players such as rooney or aguero or rvp?
     or perhaps in simpler terms, which BPL ST would perform best on his own without another ST in support?

       Aguero! He is the best striker of BPL. Alone or not, he is the best one.
       You will love him, for sure. It is no coincidence that he is the most expensive, even don’t having the higher rating.

       Sometimes a player can be very good but can’t fit in our team. In that case, the important is to try another one. Our opinion: get Toure if you need defense support or get Silva (CM) if you need attack support.

     HI, i have a 4-4-2 with

     Szceny (I know it’s cheap but it’s just a beast for me, i tried with De gea and it was bad.. so i keep with Szce)
     Sagna – Kaboul – Koscielny – Baines
     Valencia – CAM Kagawa – Ramirez – Ashley Young
     Defoe – Hernandez

     The team works for me. A lot, i had a trouble with Kagawa, he is good but the CM version of him costs like 14k!! and as a CAM just 3k. So i can’t have him in his major form but it’s not very bad. But i will regret with this thread later.

     My biggest problem now is Ramirez. He is obviosly good but everytime he is with Low fitness. I put him on Reserves some matches when he was bad, then i put him again when he was with perfect fitness and morale and after 1 match he was bad again. I can’t afford fitness cards everytime and Ramirez is currently being a pretty dissapointment right now. He is like the biggest star i have and i can’t enjoy him. I can’t afford Yaya.. by the way.

     What do i should do? Buy Tioté? I was reading he was like a mini Yaya. Fellaini is the bench of Ramirez and i just don’t like him.
     And which player can you recommend for a more ofensive CM? the bench of Kagawa is Milner. He is good but i feel i lose some explosion when he is playing. Doesn’t fit in my playstyle (Pretty agresive attacking, fast recuperation of the ball when i lost it and always being in my oponnent’s side of the field.)

     I think that’s all. I would reallly apreciate your answer Great blog, i love it!!

     Oh, i don’t have a very good budget right now.. so i would apreciate cheap players (not very cheap.. like 5-10k is good)
     I play on ps3.

       Thanks for your comment.
       Sometimes a player can be very good but can’t fit in our team. In that case, the important is to try another one.
       The best choice to replace him is Toure but he is too expensive to your wallet. If you don’t like Fellaini, you don’t have many more options. Tioté seems to be the right guy but you will need to find a CM Tioté since he is CDM. He is a good player.
       There is another player that we are a bit curious to know how he plays. We never tried him and we don’t have feedback of him, but he has great stats: Sandro UP. We can’t suggest him but if anyone have a opinion about him we really love to know.
       About a more offensive CM you can try Santi Cazorla, Jack Wilshere or Mikel Arteta.

             Hi again.

             I tested Sandro. He is good, but that’s all. He has good short passes and in that way he is very good to control the game. He has a bad dribling and is a bit slow and weak with the ball on his feets. But the most important thing is that you just can’t use him as a more defensive CM. For some reason he is often out of position and he was not a help in my defense. And he is not very good attacking.. by the way.

             So, i bought Tioté and he is just perfect. He is always in the right position in the right time. He helps a lot in defense and he is an option to attack too, he is everywhere in the pitch. And he is very agile. He just don’t feel like 77 Pace, it feels almost as fast as Ramirez. His tackle and recuperation of the ball is awesome too.

             I had an idea and i put Tioté and Ramirez. That was just insane. Amazing control of the ball, speed and the two were defending and attacking at the same time. Ramirez more offensive.
             Is just great

             Thank you for your advices!!

       The weaker positions are CAM and LM. To improve it you will need coins. With your currently budget you already have a great team.
       To LM our suggestion is Bale. If he is much expensive to you, try Nani.
       David Silva is much better than Suarez as CAM. If you got enough coins…

     Hi Guys! Great guide, very informative and it’s great to see that you’re so quick and efficient to answering everyone’s questions! A good job well done!
     I just have a few questions regarding your squads. Is there a way I could possibly adapt your 25k team into a much better team? I currently have quite a healthy wallet (200k) and I thought that buying your 25k team in a 41212 and throwing Giggs or Silva in CAM and then buying Ramires into the CDM? That would leave me with about 130k, who would I buy then? Perhaps upgrade my defense with Lloris and Kompany and maybe throw in a pinch of David Luiz or Vermaelen? Or maybe I should go straight up to the attack/midfield and maybe buy Nani (I quite enjoy 5star skillers) or Toure, maybe even Aguero/Rooney/RVP etc for the attack? I CRAVE the pace in all areas of the field except GK? And sorry for my long post which I have just made even longer *facepalm* but I really need help LOL. And btw, I’m on PS3.

       You can try something like: Hart (Lloris is too expensive) – Glen Johnson – Kompany – Vermaelen – Clichy – Toure – Valencia – Nani – David Silva – RVP – Tévez. Ok…you will need some more coins. Or try Giggs on Silva place.

       Hi.
       It is a fantastic BPL team. Probably one of the best you can buy.
       What we want to say about your team:
       1) Vidic is superb but he is a bit slow. You should pay attention if he fits on your play style.
       2) Cole is probably the best BPL LB. Not the fastest, but the best. We don’t recommend to buy IF Evra. In fact, we don’t recommend to buy any IF unless you have lot of coins, since they are not good value for money.
       3) RVP is very good. But not for every players. Rooney can be a good option too.

     LW – Assaidi

     I did buy van Persie, but I didn’t like him, because he was left footed and had less pace. Aguero seems like a good option for me, but he is very expensive. Is he worth the price? Wilshere in CM, I normally sub out for Scholes, because his shooting is terrible. And I use Assaidi in LW, because of his skills, and his pace. I was planning to buy David Silva, Hazard and Rooney. Are they good? And which other improvements should I make? I have 49k budget, and I like pacey forwards, and pacey LW, RW, LB, RB.

       With that budget you can not buy Aguero, David Silva, Hazard and Rooney. But yes, they are good. They are the improvements that you need. Plus Kompany. With those players, you will not need anyone else.

     I don’t know if my question was send so i send it again

     i was asking for a 65-70k budget BPL team, 4-1-2-1-2 on ps3.

     i like keeping the ball and have the control of it. with fast strikers waiting for a deep ground pass from my cm’s. also if i can’t enter in my oponnent’s defense i like crossing.

     if i’m sending this for 2cnd time i’m sorry

         Hi, i don’t know what to do.

         Buying the players in 4-1-2-1-2 is so much expensive i can’t afford that team you recommend. Vermaelen is at 10k, Jose Enrique at 6k .. etc

         what can i do? The cards to change player formation’s costs like 7k each..
         And i search for the players a lot of time. And i could’nt fin them in cheaper prices in 4-1-2-1-2..

       Hi.
       You have a great team and we do not have any recommendation to improve it. You should pay attention to the players that are playing worse on your team and try to replace them.
       Hybrid is a good solutions but it is also a bit difficult to keep the individual chemistry high. Take a look to our chemistry guide to know how to do it.

       Hi.
       Ashley Young on Hoilett place. He has almost the same amazing pace but he is much better on the other attributes.
       This is the only improve that we suggest since you will need coins to more changes (Touré on Parker place and Davis Silva on Gerrard place, for example).
       You shouldn’t choose your formation by your players. If 3-5-2 is good for your play style, it is all that matters.

       Hi.
       You have a nice low-budget team.
       We have lots of suggestions but most of them requires coins.
       Without spending many coins, you can try to hire a faster CB. Jan Vertonghen, for example, is a bit better for the same price. If you have more 1.5k coins to spend, try Younès Kaboul. He is really fast and has better defensive attributes than Cahill.
       It seems to us the weaker position.

       Hi.

       If you not realized the last line, go ahead with our comment.

       About your team, we usually think that CAM’s don’t have to be fast players unlike the players of other positions. In a 4-2-2-2 is different. You need pace because they also play as wings.
       Replacing Suarez by Tévez seems to us a really smart move. We love him. And he is a bit faster than Suárez.
       If Podolski is not working for you, you should sell him as soon as possible. Since you love fast players, you can get a try to Loïc Rémy. He is really fast and costs almost the same of Podolski.

         I build the team with the intention of playing counter attacking football, but that didn’t really work well for me. I’m playing possession football instead, and think there could be some changes made.

         Cole for Baines
         Vermaelen for Kaboul
         RvP for Remy
         Ben Arfa for Walcott
         Hazard for Bale

         How do those alterations sound, could you suggest something better? How much would it affect hazard to play RF?

           In our opinion, Cole is much better than Baines. Vermalaelen seems to be better than Kaboul too.
           Remy, Walcott and Bale sound fine. More suggestions? Tévez and Valencia.
           As you can see at this table taken from our chemistry guide (http://www.fifauteam.com/pt/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/A134-10E.jpg), it will affect a lot. If you really want to do that, at least try to turn him a LF. The chemistry will be not affect so much if you put him as RF.

I have some decent players in reserve Mertesacker, Wilshere, Parker, Dembele, Kagawa, Giroud and Bent among others. I can’t settle on my best 11 and I’m also looking for replacements. I have about 60k to spend plus any money from sales. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks, Lloyd

       Our suggestions depend of your play style, preferences, etc..
       We will try to help you anyway. 60k is a good budget for some improvements.
       Our first concern is your CB’s. Terry is a slow defender. If you are having problems with that, try Vermaelen for the same price.
       Essou-Ekotto is our choice for the 25k budget squad but, since you have some extra coins, you can try Leighton Baines or, even better, Jose Enrique.
       Depending on which plataform you are playing, Touré can cost something like 30k. We know that he is a bit expensive for your wallet but he will be a great improvement. Otherwise, you can try Ramires.
       Finnaly, we personally don’t like Torres but it’s up to you. You have enough coins to Tévez for Cazorla place. He is much better.

       Hi.
       It isn’t easy to win only with 9 players. You forgot your RB/LB.
       You have a nice team for your budget. Your weakest position is LM. Try to save to Ashley Young.
       The problem isn’t your players. Check their morale. Maybe they are with low morale since they lost several matches in row. If it is the problem, we recommend you to buy a team talk card for the whole squad.

     I tried with Ashley Young in N zogbia’s place (“obvious” improvement) and for some reason he just sucks for me. With Zogbia i score always like 2 goals per match, i found him awesome and Ashley Young just doesn’t fit in my squad.

       If a player doesn’t fit on your team, forget him. If you play better with Zogbia, keep him.
       You have a nice team. Very balanced squad. The only suggestion that we have is to buy Touré to Fellaini place. He will be a great improvement.
       It depends on the player that is playing worse on your team but, if you get more coins, you can try Tévez on Podolski place.

On your BBV guide I asked about a BBV team so you could just answer it here or there. I enjoy using 4-4-2 or 4-1-2-1-2 Which ever one you think works better with a new team etc.

       Hi.
       Our suggestion is to a faster CB. In a 4-4-2 your defence get exposed often. You need pacy CB’s. Maybe Vermaelen or Kaboul.

     Hey guys, I’m currently using a 4-1-2-1-2

     GK: Diego Alves
     Defenders: Walker, David Luiz, Kompany, Clichy
     CDM: Ramirers (working on Toure)
     LM: Nani
     RM: Ben Arfa
     CAM: Silva
     ST: Aguero, Podolski

     I think I have a great team but it just feels like I can make some improvements, any suggestions?

     other info: I rarely cross, If my wingers have the ball I usually cut into the middle and look for the shot or a through ball for my strikers, I love shooting from far, and i prefer my players with a bit of pace. I had Gareth Bale and he was a great player but i felt like I could put the 75k I bought him for to better use so I sold him an upgraded from Mirrallas to Aguero.

     Thanks in advance

       Hi.
       You have a great team. True. And if you are happy with it, don’t change it too much.
       In our opinion, your weakest player is Podolski. But again: if you are going well with him, don’t sell him.
       We think that Diego Alves doesn’t have individual chemistry 9. You should pay attention to it. Learn more about it HERE.

       That’s a good budget. We love to spend money.
       We don’t know your preferences and play style but we will suggest some players anyway:
       Hart, Kompany, Toure, David Silva, Aguero and RVP. 300k will be enought to it.

       Hi.
       GK: Lloris is a great GK but you can try to strat hiring Hart. Later you can sell Hart, if you wish, and buy Lloris.
       CB’s and CDM’s: Five of the best BPL CB’s / CDM’s.
       RM: Walcott is good but Valencia is a bit better and he is fast player too.
       LM: We love Bale.
       CAM: Nasri is faster than Silva but do you really need a fast player in this position? It’s up to you…
       ST: Hiring Aguero will be one of the best improvements that you can make.
       Hazard is good but we don’t have sure if he will be better than Bale.
       Regards

     I can’t make up my mind! I am selling my liga team because today I lost 4 in a row conceding at least 3 goals and scoring 0… I want to re-make the perfect BPL team. I have about 360k coins to spend remaking the perfect BPL team – this time with substitutes!
     Still not sure if I want to go back to 4-1-2-1 or keep doing the 4-4-2 formation. What would your ideal BPL team be + substitutes? Thanks again for your help, I look forward to your suggestions again.

       No.
       It is good when we don’t have any suggestions. It means that you have a nice team for your budget.
       If you can live with the low pace of Vidic, you don’t need to change anything else. Since you have Luiz and Kompany, it should be OK. Otherwise, buy Vermaelen and buy Rooney to RVP place.

     Would you say a Liga/BPL team is a good hybrid? I’m looking for a new kind of team to play with, sold my team and got 200k – fifa glitched and I lost aguero after I bought him for 90k… It took my coins and didn’t give me the card so I lost 100k…
     Any idea, I was thinking 4-4-2 – not sure what I good hybrid team is?

       Liga/BPL hybrid team is probably the best you can have. But it is very expensive.
       You can take some ideas from our BPL/BBVA hybrid squad HERE. It is a 4-4-2.
       About Aguero, you should complain to EA. See HERE how to do it.

         Yeah I contacted them but they haven’t replied in a week… Anyway I see your team “http://www.fifauteam.com/pt/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/A077-8.jpg” can’t really see the substitutes. I see rooney is in the pack. What if I split the team down the middle bpl/liga?
         For instance:
         Left ST: Van Persie (unless I can get aguero back)
         LM: Hazard or Nani
         Left CM: Toure? Or Silva?
         LB: Cole or Clichy
         Left CB: Kompany (Vermalen sub)
         THEN
         GK: Casillas
         Right CB: Pique or Ramos (pepe sub)
         RB: Dani Alvez – If I can afford if not then Joae Pereria
         RM: Di Maria
         Right CM: Either Xabi Alonso (if no toure) or Xavi or Cesc or Ozil
         Right ST: Benzema or Falcao

           You can do it! It is one of the techniques to build hybrid squads that we teach in our chemistry guide.
           In Episode 10 of MYFUT13 you can check all my players, including a short review. Now the team is a bit different…

             For the 2 cms (1 from liga /bpl)

             Should the cdm (CM) be Toure or Xabi Alonso?
             Then the cam (other CM) should be?? Silva or Xavi or who do you think?

             LB: Clichy RB: Joao Pereria
             CB: Kompany/Pique
             GK: Hart
             For substitutes should I have: ST: Balotelli or Aguer AND Falcao
             LM: Nani RM: Jesus Navas
             CM: Toure/ Ozil or Fabregas ( who is the best cam in liga to pair with toure)
             LB: Cole or Jose Enrique RB: Juanfran
             CB: Vermalen/Pepe
             GK Diego Alvez or Casillas is I can afford

             Okay I have the team and the substitutes as listed EXCEPT NO CASILLAS OR OZIl – instead my GK are Hart/Diego Alvez / CM for liga is Xabi Alonso/Cesc Fabregas

             I have ~80k left, do you think it would be better to get cassilas for Hart?
             My st are: rvp, benzema sub balotelli/falcao

             8 March 2013 at 16:24

             Yes. We love Casillas. Most of people ignore the importance of a good GK.
             It will be a good investiment, even if you do not notice it.
           • lynxl says:

             8 March 2013 at 17:06

             So I should try to get Casillas
             What about for the backup strikers for RVP/Benzema
             I have Falcao/Balotelli/Suarez (which 2 should I keep / sell)
             Also is it worth it to have cole as a backup for clichy or should I just stick with jose enrique – if i keep cole I won’t have enough to get casillas.
           • FIFA U Team Administrator says:

             8 March 2013 at 18:18

             Hi.
             Falcão and Balotelli are the best two of these players. In our opinion, you should try to keep with Cole. Later, when you got some more coins you will be able to buy Casillas.
           • lynxl says:

             8 March 2013 at 20:54

             I really must thank you for all your help – I also want to apologize for my large amount of questions, sorry if I am annoying. Okay so I guess I’ll sell Hart/Cesc Fabregas/Suarez and see if that will be enough for casillas. Something I noticed was Diego Alvez is getting 7 chem with my cbs (kompany/pique or vermalen/pepe) – Same as RVP unless I play nani on the wing instead of hazard – you think it matters?

             Just to go over everything for a final question:
             GK: Casillas (once I can get him atm HART) – Sub Diego Alvez
             LB: Cole – sub Clichy
             RB: Joao Pereria – sub Juanfran
             CB: Kompany – sub Vermalen / Pique – sub Pepe
             LM: Hazard – sub Nani
             RM: Di Maria – sub Jesus Navas
             CM: David Silva – sub Yaya Toure / Xabi Alonso – sub Ozil
             ST: RVP – sub Balotelli / Benzema – sub Falcao

             How does that sound (4-4-2)? Thanks again
           • FIFA U Team Administrator says:

             8 March 2013 at 22:37

             Sound pretty nice. You have two good teams.
             About Diego Alves and RVP it isn’t too serious. Less than 7 is not recommended. But like this, you can live with it.

       You have a nice low-budget team. And you have a nice bench which is very important to make you stop wasting coins in consumables cards.
       The next step? Maybe a natural LM, like Nani.

       Yes, it is a good team but with 50k can be much better.
       It depends of your preferences and your play style.
       In our opinion, Toure to Toulalan place, Vermaelen to Rami place, Ashley Young to Nzgogbia and Valencia to Biabiany place would be great improvements. And 50k will be enough to it.
