Just started my third season.

My squad:
GK: Vermeer

RB: S Kelly, Flanagan (on loan)
CB: Vortenghen, Tomkins, R Bennett, Sam Magri (out on loan), Jaidi
LB: Fox,

RM: Kightly, Redmond
CM: Karacan, Cork, Schneiderlin
LM: Lallana

ST: Lambert, Sharp, M'baye Niang


Very hard to build a squad when prices are so inflated and so little money is provided.

Means I've had to wheel and deal, Del Boy style...

(Note: my team is very similar to the team I have on Football Manager 2012)

I avoid playing as Saints in Career Mode. I don't know why, I just love every player too much to let them go.

My Newcastle team (9th season):

GK: Courtois, Fielding

RB: Caceres, Van der Wiel,
CB: Phil Jones, Diakite, Tomkins, Kalas
LB: Coentrao, Glen Johnson

RM: Reus, Cuadrado, Lallana ;)
CM: Moutinho, M'Vila, Draxler, Fedor Ogude (He's a tank check him out)
LM: Ola John

ST: Leandro Daimao, Cisse, Erick Torres, Victor Ibarbo.

Team has been good enough to win the title 7 out of 9 seasons.
 
I bought this last week and was about to ask for questions on this , like I am probably the crappest player on the planet , I am more a FPS or RTS than this , is it cheating to go on semi pro for a while ? And why does the default Saints team always pick weaker players , Hammond ha ha ?
Where is Lee as well , would like to sign him but can to seem to see him .
 
Finished my first season in the Premiership in about 8th. Knew I wasn't gonna qualify for Europe so played a lot of my youth players in my last few matches.

Bought Armand Traore and a player called Ze Eduardo. Might need a need a new goalie and central midfielder but I think I'll feel bad if I replace Henderson or Norris, does anyone else ever feel the same when replacing their players? :(

Why I don't play as Saints! Cant bear to replace anyone.
 
Wondering what you guys make of Youth Academy? And what your best players you had from there was? Have a Japanese winger who is rated 67 now, potential to be 85-91. Do you use it a lot? I make sure to get a scout at the start of every career.
 
My first game on well semi pro and I beat Ipswich 2-1 woo hoo ! The only thing is I updated the squads and they have reset , I presume because this is before they signed in Jan so therfore will they automatically do this when Jan comes around ?
 
I indeed have access to it, only Saints though. We look good.

Then you can have the honour of announcing the Saints stats before they come out next year :D

My mate has access to the full database (I think) so I'll be able to get stats from other teams.. just not many because I can't be arsed and I'm sure neither can he
 
My seasons so far:

Any of you that still play UT:

Adam Lallana's in the most consistent but not IF TOTY which is out tonight. It was chosen by the community and I had to fight against a load of Leeds fans to keep him in instead of McCormack. ;)

His stats are somewhat underwhelming though.

Yeah I still play ultimate team, the only part of fifa I get any joy out of, just finished my reformed saints team, I did have one which I played loads with but decided to break the bank:

4-1-2-1-2

Gk- IF Davis
Rb - Richardson
Rcb - IF Fonte
Lcb - Hooiveld
Lb - Fox
Cdm - Cork
Rm - De Ridder
Lm - TOTY Lallana
Cam - Iago Falque
Rs - IF Guly
Ls - TOTY Lambert

My live has run out so am not gonna get more until after my a2 exams but played some offline with them and they are unbelievable, lambert and Guly have 99 shot power. Think it's a real injustice that Lallana and de Ridder don't have 4* skills (get on it sfcjordi)
