Yep. I'm just playing single player seasons in UT now, the Div 1 Ultimate League is quite challenging. 8 games on legendary and 2 on world class against the best teams on the game. You have to win all 10 games to win the title and also get 7500 coins and a free jumbo gold pack. I'm 4 games in so far, won them all (just) but I can't see myself getting all 10.

Pochettino is blaming a small pitch as the reason for our poor form this season. Bullshit. Maybe he should look at the dreadful football he has asked our players to play this season, or maybe his constant poor team selections.

I like the idea of an "unbeatable monster", also Paul Heyman is awesome. But they should throw different people at him (like Orton), rather than just having him face Cena again and again.

Lesnar - Orton could be an awesome match, Orton carries his fights with Cena and Reigns, he's so good.

Orton scheming and cheating his way to try get over Lesnar would be good to watch rather than "Can Cena beat the odds again?!?!?!"

I'm just not keen on Lesnar. Agreed Heyman is awesome though, and Orton would definatly be the best opponent for Lesnar.

Well we have just had Cena vs Orton XXXVIII so it could be worse!

Pathetic. I knew it'd be bad but not this bad. Don't know why Lennon never gets a start, Lamela has done nothing to justify his constant selection. He cuts inside every time, tries some pointless tricks and loses the ball. Dembele, Kane & Lennon should be starting. Don't really understand how we took 7 points from Arsenal, West Ham and Southampton this season with the utter crap football we play.

Messi was pretty quiet which was a shame, but it was a decent game overall.

Managed to watch the game on a stream, although the commentators were really annoying. The only English language stream working for me was from USA and the main commentator kept talking like it was an NFL game. The co commentator was a strange bloke, he was some over excited geordie shouting random shit the entire game, like "He's as sharp as a porcupines backside" and "He tore away like toilet paper from a toilet roll". Never heard commentary like it.

Got a feeling we'll end up with a draw. I know Newcastle are shit, but i've not been convinced by Pochettino at all so far. Can't go to the game but it would've been nice to be able to go to see the Bill Nicholson tributes.

Just played 6 online games. My opponent rage quit in all of them but I only got 2 wins and somehow got 1 loss. So basically my online form is almost totally decided by whether the game gives me a win or loss from an opponents rage quit. I'd say a majority of my games fail to reach 90 mins, which is making the game almost unplayable for me.

Update on Cabella: He is awesome, so awesome that i've actually dropped the mighty Ronaldinho for him to play. He's quite cheap as well, only a few thousand coins.

Good result for the other teams in the group then.

The return fixture will be interesting viewing. Good luck whoever refs that.

They'll probably restrict the amount of people in the crowd. It'll just be another riot if they don't.

I was there last night. I don't think anyone really knew what happened at first but then as the replays played on the big screen you could hear more and more "wows". Easily the most ridiculous goal i've ever seen live.

Pochettino's press conference after the game: "One time I scored a goal like that myself. You will find it on YouTube."

I got the achievements for knuckle shot and toe poke in my first few games. No idea what I did to get them though as I certainly didn't hold LT + RT for the knuckle shot.

You're overstating how bad Tottenham were. A better striker and a better defender than Kaboul and it would have been far, far closer.

I'm not trying to say that we were bad, more like how we have a lack of quality and constant poor team selections.

In the summer everybody except Pochettino and Levy could see we desperatly needed a striker. So what did they do? Buy a goalie, 3 defenders and a defensive midfielder. Our transfer business rarely makes much sense to me.

So looking at the fifa subreddit its looking like EA has started to reset youtubers who advertised coin sellers

Good. Coin selling defeats the point of UT. Maybe it would encourage youtubers to actually play UT properly and make some decent videos rather than just buying a load of coins, getting all the best players and then doing a load of pointless wager matches.

Yeah, I thought the scoreline flattered City. Okay maybe not flattered cause they played well, but looks harsh on Spurs, they weren't 4-1 bad.

By bluemoon. | On 19 October 2014 - 13:37 PM

I was there and I'd agree with flattered. We weren't bad but at no point did we control the match, our passing was pretty dodgy and our defending was terrible.

Even Aguero didn't have a brilliant match, ridiculous as that will sound, he scored 4 and could have scored at least 6 or 7, if he hadn't insisted on trying to score the perfect goal so often.

So despite Citys dodgy passing, terrible defending, Spurs not being 4-1 bad and Aguero not having a brilliant match, they still beat us 4-1 with Aguero getting all 4 goals. That is why I am disappointed. I'm not saying I expected to ever get anything from the game, but the fact that we couldn't take advantage of City not being at their best is further proof that we really need a decent striker, probably a winger and a good defender to partner Vertonghen. Still at least we only conceded 4 this time, thats an improvement I suppose.

He is probably a high attacking work rate card. Thats what you have to watch out for with CDMs. Theres quite of few of them with it

He's got a medium attack work rate and low defensive. Its the low defensive work rate that stops him ever being seen in his own half.

Having fun with Ronaldinho on UT, just won 6-0 with him getting all 6. He's a lazy shit who stays in more advanced positions than my striker most of the time, he's got no pace and no stamina, but its so easy to dribble around players and score with him. Bargain at 750 coins!

Don't get how anyone can play online as a 5* team, it's fucking boring as fuck playing Real Madrid every single game. 4* is where it's at

Don't know why but I love using Santos Laguna from the Mexican league. I used to use them all the time back on Fifa 13. Playing as 4* or lower teams usually makes for more entertaining games I find.
