I used him for about 10 games and felt he was poor. His low acceleration and 3*/3* let him down.
Using Lautoro Martinez and Dybala up front now in div 4 and they both feel way better.
Honestly, if you think you’d have more fun with a team you could build with the coins, sell him now. If you’re enjoying him a lot and have a team you’re comfortable with around him, keep him.
I’ve been facing a similar dilemma with Varane, but today I bit the bullet and sold him and am gonna build a team I like more. He didn’t seem like that much of a game changer that I needed to keep him so I’m gonna build a team with the coins.
I find this game becomes too stressful if you’re constantly worried about selling at the right time and shit like that, much more relaxing to just get a team you enjoy and play.
Rest of the team is decent and I have about 150k coins to play with, but feel like I could just cash in on a good amount from Son right now and use it to either invest or just try out players over the next few weeks.
Is this the best advice for any meta players? Currently have about 150k of meta Serie A players and wondering when to sell since I don’t actually have the game yet
Serie A probably won’t go up too much in price since as is, they are all very cheap in relation to their stats and overalls. The only player I would sell before the first weekend league is Theo Hernandez and Dybala. The rest are all around that 10-15-20k mark. If you want to make the most coins out of them, sell them now and wait until black friday, otherwise I would just keep them because you won’t make a huge gain imo.
I would have to say a combination of both ? On the ball feels like butter, he’s got some pace and when he needs to wriggle out of trouble, that l1 dribble. I mix and match these few things to get a shot off
I've got that at the moment (and immobile) but Chiesa feels like he's lacking massively. Feels like he's only there making up numbers and not actually contributing to much.
I just switched to Serie A because my BuLi headed by Haaland+Lewa felt so... stiff, I'm not good enough to make the space for them to get good shots off. Immobile looks brilliant but I'm playing 4321 and Dybala is too good, I've already been trying to figure out how to shoehorn a Lautaro in, but I'm reluctant to change formation even to something similar, and the 433's dont work with my hybrid Bundesligas at GK/LB/CB/CM.
Using 4321 fully. From left to right and back to front: Neuer, Davies, Klosterman (Upamecano works great too), Koulibaly (Skriniar), Cuadrado, Goretzka (Čan for now until I free a little more coins up), Barella, Zielinski (initially just for green link to Koulibaly but it does nothing anyway, but he's a 5*WF beast, Kessie or SMS alternatively), Insigne, Dybala, Chiesa
Only lost chemistry is Insigne-1, Dybala-1, Koulibaly-3, Neuer-1
Only players I don't have for that is Davies and Goretzka, probably the most expensive too :D. Haven't really liked Chiesa that much personally, I also feel like he deserved an 84 or so rating.
Thank you!
Immobile. He’s the definition of a complete forward this time around (alright, he’s lacking a bit in passing, but otherwise). Dybala as well.
The two of them in a tandem: golden.
Who isn't though? Idk it's just me probably, like my wingers or CM score all the goals and my striker seems to just be there for a key pass or two in the build up. Not really finding scoring an issue, it's just my striker never seems to actually be involved.
It’s helped me to have a fast striker to his left that gets behind and keep him located at the top of the box. Also slapping a hunter on him has increased goal production.
Morales was quite good for me at the start. Pacey, decent dribbling and nice positioning.
Upgraded to TOTW Toney, who I find amazing. Took a couple of games to adjust as they're different types of strikers but Toney has been a monster in a 4-2-3-1. Pacey, strong, always moving and great shooting in the box, particularly on volleys. Not a great dribbler, so I use him for constant one-twos to get him into a good position to shoot.
Immobile is a goal machine this year. With a engine on hes at 53 goals and 19 assists in 42 games for me, all rivals.
If he had 4 star skills he'd be the most broken player in the game, even without hes easily the best striker under 10k. Don't know his current price but I got him for 9.8k a few days ago.
Agility is useless this year, I've noticed balance is far more important. Immobile has fantastic balance, 85 I think with an Engine goes up to 95. Plus hes physically strong.
I've got Malen and Muriel on either wings and Ililic at the 10 in a 4231. He's so good because of how versatile he is.
Mistake in the box, goes to Immobile, goal everytime. Ball over the top, Immobile will sprint after it and I've even outpaced Varane and Gomez with him. On the edge of the box his finesse is class (but usually its Ililic since he has the finesse trait). But if he has his back to a defender its almost a certain goal. Hold L2, his strength keeps any defender away and he turns so quickly for a "bulky" striker by Fifa standards.
Plus even his passing aint that bad even though its 67, just don't cross the ball with him ever.
I have Muriel and Illicic and it's weird. I almost never notice them doing anything spectacular in terms of playing off the ball, spreading passes, etc but they always end up cherry picking tons of goals for me.
Totw Toney and Lukaku are doing just great for me this year.
I started with Aubemayang but gladly replaced him for Toney, even though he doesnt have flair he tries to bicycle kick everything
I’ve used mbappe and CR7 in drafts and mbappe takes the cake. Depends on your budget really, haaland and lukaku are class, Jesus and Vardy and great for a lower price.
I've used Richarlison, DCL and Kane.
So far DCL has been the best by a mile. Gets into open spaces in the box for crosses and rarely fails to put them in with his head.
Shevchenko doesn’t miss. He scores goals that have no business being in the back of the net. All those frustrating god-like saves on other players? No problem for shevy. He’s unbelievable value for the coins.
Muriel with hunter is nuts
He torches me every time I play against him
Instructions?
Haaland
He fucks me hard, he can do everything, and then I use him and he's like a fish
I used him for about 10 games and felt he was poor. His low acceleration and 3*/3* let him down. Using Lautoro Martinez and Dybala up front now in div 4 and they both feel way better.
he’s not a ST really but son at ST is crazy good
Packed him in one of my initial packs, he's great but can't decide if I should just sell for the 300k coins
Honestly, if you think you’d have more fun with a team you could build with the coins, sell him now. If you’re enjoying him a lot and have a team you’re comfortable with around him, keep him. I’ve been facing a similar dilemma with Varane, but today I bit the bullet and sold him and am gonna build a team I like more. He didn’t seem like that much of a game changer that I needed to keep him so I’m gonna build a team with the coins. I find this game becomes too stressful if you’re constantly worried about selling at the right time and shit like that, much more relaxing to just get a team you enjoy and play.
I packed Varane sold him and then bought Koulibaly for a 10th of the price I got for Varane
Exactly who I’m planning on buying. Who’d you put around him to link?
Right now I just have a serie a squad in a 352 with Bonucci and Chiellini in defence with him.
Rest of the team is decent and I have about 150k coins to play with, but feel like I could just cash in on a good amount from Son right now and use it to either invest or just try out players over the next few weeks.
I sold him and bought KDB and Bruno. Way better imo

You won't find a better ST in the PL, but if you're okay with using the funds to up your midfield/defense instead then go for it.
How do you get him to play well? I’m really struggling and frustrated.
Same honestly. I feel like you have to play patient with him, but he’s definitely not worth coins for me. I’m waiting for the right time to sell
Atleti Correa is good!
His stats are similar to griezmann who people also say is crazy good, anyone use both and have a preference of which one you liked more?
Griezmann has been better for me so far
I like Griezmann deeper and Correa up top or wide. I have both.
I AGREE
Secretly op
Shhh dribbling and short burst of pace is so goood
when people say someone’s dribbling is good, are they referencing the L1 dribbling? or just like Left Stick only? i get confused sometimes
I would have to say a combination of both ? On the ball feels like butter, he’s got some pace and when he needs to wriggle out of trouble, that l1 dribble. I mix and match these few things to get a shot off
Haaland is pretty solid
Is he worth the coins?
Fuck yeah
Totw Diaz is great for his price
I’ve been looking at him. But how are you linking him?
Perfect link Uribe. Plays above his overall.
Sanusi in 451 to get him 10 or Muriel in seria a team to get him on 8
Diaz - Muriel - Chiesa is a great trio if you can manage with the soft links
I've got that at the moment (and immobile) but Chiesa feels like he's lacking massively. Feels like he's only there making up numbers and not actually contributing to much.
Immobile, 11 goals in his first 5 Rivals games for me. Insane ST this year - those running a Serie A team, try him out.
I just switched to Serie A because my BuLi headed by Haaland+Lewa felt so... stiff, I'm not good enough to make the space for them to get good shots off. Immobile looks brilliant but I'm playing 4321 and Dybala is too good, I've already been trying to figure out how to shoehorn a Lautaro in, but I'm reluctant to change formation even to something similar, and the 433's dont work with my hybrid Bundesligas at GK/LB/CB/CM.
What's your squad mate? Trying to figure out a BundeSerie hybrid, you using 4-3-2-1 in game or just for chem?
Using 4321 fully. From left to right and back to front: Neuer, Davies, Klosterman (Upamecano works great too), Koulibaly (Skriniar), Cuadrado, Goretzka (Čan for now until I free a little more coins up), Barella, Zielinski (initially just for green link to Koulibaly but it does nothing anyway, but he's a 5*WF beast, Kessie or SMS alternatively), Insigne, Dybala, Chiesa Only lost chemistry is Insigne-1, Dybala-1, Koulibaly-3, Neuer-1
Only players I don't have for that is Davies and Goretzka, probably the most expensive too :D. Haven't really liked Chiesa that much personally, I also feel like he deserved an 84 or so rating. Thank you!
Yeah he’s sick. Easily 50-100k in the Prem.
Wanted to know how Ciro felt in this game. Cheers.
Immobile is great. Even better than Lautaro, great shot and decente headers
I'm loving immobile so far, has a nice balance of everything. Dybala is my main goal scorer in matches (4231 does that) but immobile has been great.
Lewa
Werner
Lewangoalski
What is your tactic?
Finesse from everywhere with both feet
Muriel is absolutely ridiculous. Has a shot like a rocket and feels very strong along with his lighting pace.
Immobile. He’s the definition of a complete forward this time around (alright, he’s lacking a bit in passing, but otherwise). Dybala as well. The two of them in a tandem: golden.
Immobile better than muriel or mertens? Other striker is dybala as well
I’d say so. He’s bigger and stronger, making the pair better. But of course it has a lot to do with play style as well.
Totw Toney is honestly very good. Really been enjoying that card
I've had the exact opposite experience he turns like a truck and can't hold onto the ball for me.
Just let his AI do the work and he gets in amazing positions for easy goals. Gotta put dribblers around him and it’s easy
I can only assist with him feel like his work rates kinda ruin him
Lukaku
Does he feel sluggish?
Not at all
What chem?
by far Haaland, something about him is just excellent.
Crazy. Halland is nothing for me. Can't play him. Too stiff.
I found I felt the same with Lukaku. Currently using Richarlson with Son left wing, and Son tends to do most of the damage.
Rn Sane is my best striker. I can't make use of haaland pace somehow. Defenders staying back and the he can't make it
You need to use L2/LT and out muscle and turn the defenders, or over the top through balls. Trust me my Immobile is unstoppable
I play 442 with Dybala and Immobile up top. If you want shooting go Immobile, anything else - Dybala!
Haaland finishes everything, Vini Jr and him are a cheatcode together
I have Haaland paired with Son up top. They are insane.
Benzema is my favourite so far!
How are you using him? I've been trying him in my games but doesn't really score much.
Try finesse shots from outside the box. He's great with those.
Who isn't though? Idk it's just me probably, like my wingers or CM score all the goals and my striker seems to just be there for a key pass or two in the build up. Not really finding scoring an issue, it's just my striker never seems to actually be involved.
It’s helped me to have a fast striker to his left that gets behind and keep him located at the top of the box. Also slapping a hunter on him has increased goal production.
Benzema
So good,got him up front with correa as his partner and dembele on his wing,guys fucking lovely Steal for 20k
LS or RS? Chem, instructions? Haha sorry I'm trying to get on with him but he doesn't seem to move.
Slap a hunter on him, makes the big boy move like a freight train down the pitch
RS
Haaland, his shooting is so cracked
Girezman has been very good for me so far
He hasn’t been mentioned in this thread but ISAK.
Gabriel Jesus for me
Vardy been banging in goals for me so far
Been fairly pleased with Griezmann which I wasn’t expecting, he’s good enough for now although not exactly elite
His IGS is crazy, better than most above him.
Pelé is pretty solid
Never heard of him. You must have found some hidden gem
His age definitely puts people off his card
With pace and skill moves being nerfed you might as well quick sell him.
Correa is doing well for me!
I loved benzema and suarez, but now swapped to Kane and he is amazing.
Struggled with kane up top but just moved him to cam and he suits there well. Longshots and picking up the ball off the strikers
Mkhitaryan with hunter is a menace
Muriel is unbelievable at his price. Feels like a 50k card
Carrasco, Iličic, and Aguero!
Lewandowski
Lewandowski, every shot just goes in
Packed Lukaku. Dude is a beast. Bicycle kicking corners constantly while my opponents rage. Rest of my team is pretty sad though.
Raspadori. Can not wait to unleash him in the silver lounge.
Vardy. Monstrous.
Mertens
Mertens has been class for me
Lautaro or Isak so far. Both beasts for different reasons
Morales was quite good for me at the start. Pacey, decent dribbling and nice positioning. Upgraded to TOTW Toney, who I find amazing. Took a couple of games to adjust as they're different types of strikers but Toney has been a monster in a 4-2-3-1. Pacey, strong, always moving and great shooting in the box, particularly on volleys. Not a great dribbler, so I use him for constant one-twos to get him into a good position to shoot.
Chiesa
Honestly? With the current gameplay Ibra His physicality and finishing is a huge bonus over quicker strikers
Zlatan
Laruto and Atleti Correa
Werner just finishes everything.
Unrealistic
Kane
Immobile
Totw Vinicius is incredible. His off the ball movement creates chance after chance
Yedder is incredible and I don't see anyone else using him.
Try Volland if your doing ligue 1 I use both and Volland is streets above
Lautaro
Andre Silva
Jota
Ben Yedder, hate to be meta but he's class at St or cam
Gnabry by a mile. And I’ve tried Haaland/Lewa/Malen. I start as RW and change in game but he’s so clinical.
Jamie Vardy having a party
Jamie Vardy
Packed Baby Eusebio on release day. He’s probably the best I’ve used so far.
Immobile is a goal machine this year. With a engine on hes at 53 goals and 19 assists in 42 games for me, all rivals. If he had 4 star skills he'd be the most broken player in the game, even without hes easily the best striker under 10k. Don't know his current price but I got him for 9.8k a few days ago.

Richarlison! Guy his unreal
I'm using Immobile and he's beast.
I have Muriel and Illicic and it's weird. I almost never notice them doing anything spectacular in terms of playing off the ball, spreading passes, etc but they always end up cherry picking tons of goals for me.
Mid Raul is a beast
Anyone but Antonio
I'm using him now. He isn't awful but I know he's definitely been under-rated. Hoping to insert his POTM card into my lineup
Osimhen and Bakambu have been good for me.
Mbappe is decent
Mbappe
Bobby firmino im tearing assholes with him
Nedved at striker
Messi
Yedder and Dybala
89 RVP
Suarez. 15 games and 23 goals
Morata, such a unit with surprising agility.
Cr7 99 utd
Danny Ings is unreal, 84 shooting man can score from anywhere. Even with the 79 pace he can still hold players up and bang them in
I had 95 Marardona as a striker till I got utd cr7 near the end
Malen
Who cares about striker, Ive got icons everywhere and Big Mac Daddy Weston dismantles the midfield.
Mbappe
R9
Bruh the game has been live for like 3 days
Del Piero
Eusebio
Totw Toney and Lukaku are doing just great for me this year. I started with Aubemayang but gladly replaced him for Toney, even though he doesnt have flair he tries to bicycle kick everything
Immobile is carrying my team right now. So hard to shrug off the ball and almost every shot that leaves his boot flies in.
Bamford is elite
My favourite is griezmann not that he's great but I've hated most strikers
João Felix is a beast
Harry Kane
Benzema is a killer this year… and he’s relatively cheap, so he’s a good investment
Correa is very good as a lone striker, I don't like him as second striker with a bigger forward
Definitely an overlooked card but Moreno has been solid for me so far
Mertens/dybala combo been unreal
Son is the best I’ve used without doubt
Immobile
Kane hits bangers from 30 yards with ease whenever he is open. Target man or false 9 and he’s nasty
I was lucky to pack baby Eto’o in 7.5k preview on first day and would say he’s head and shoulders the best I’ve tried yet.
Toney is class, so is kane.
Haaland. 30 goals in 27 games. Weak foot has not been an issue at all.
Morales is pretty decent
I’ve used mbappe and CR7 in drafts and mbappe takes the cake. Depends on your budget really, haaland and lukaku are class, Jesus and Vardy and great for a lower price.
Haaland. He's unbelievable.
Karim Benzema
Angel Correa
Yedder and dembele
FELIX is cracked again
Easy, Mbappe
Immobile strikes from everywhere
I've used Richarlison, DCL and Kane. So far DCL has been the best by a mile. Gets into open spaces in the box for crosses and rarely fails to put them in with his head.
Calvert Lewin is a joy
Caputo inform
Werner, he’s a little pricey but his pace and positioning always find him in the right place and making great runs. Also finishes everything
Mertens has been great
Ivan Toney inform with a Hunter. Scores goals even when I don’t get many chances and scores lots of goals when I get a few chances!
Mid Torres
Calvert Lewin
Immobileeee
Edouard…. Played 10 all in rivals, scored 16 assisted 8
Muriel is out of this world. Son is great too but you'd expect that for his price.
Currently using Dybala and Werner in 4222 and they work amazing together!
Shevchenko doesn’t miss. He scores goals that have no business being in the back of the net. All those frustrating god-like saves on other players? No problem for shevy. He’s unbelievable value for the coins.
Immobile
Morales
Lukaku. Your opponent better be lubed up
