Yeah, I played a 4222 myself mate. Had only 1 CDM on stay back though but played on 7 depth the entire WL. Just thought I’d try to keep the PTB users pinned in their half with pressure 😂
I think its not so much about the depth. If you keep that many players back it doesnt matter how deep your defensive line is imo.

Thanks bro. 352 is actually decent I heard as with the right custom tactics it becomes a 541 when defending. Drop back is annoying as. My advice is just to keep moving the ball and only pass when completion looks guaranteed. Eventually people lose discipline.
My play is far too rushed to pass accurately tbh, every time I change from default tactics I end up getting roasted haha. I can get like silver 1 in WL and hang around division 6. My dribbling is terrible too, no smoothness at all.
I’m glad you are out there destroying it with that team and tactics though, safe in the knowledge all the PTB merchants are getting beat.

Try to get use to dribbling with L1/LB, will buy you so much time. If you’re trying to play too fast then I have no suggestion for that 😂😂 Find myself doing that sometimes when I play against opponents playing like that though
Did Positano objective so ended up in div 8, was trying to get back up to 6 today and played some lad with literally 10 men behind the ball, took me nearly all game to sneak a goal and he had 1 shot by the end.. I messaged him and told him get a grip playing like that in div 8, it’s pointless. He said it’s cos my team was better, like that ever mattered... can’t even have fun in the amateur divisions haha.
I need to do the dribbling tutorials I think, I think I’m too harsh on the analogue stick, like either all or nothing, no finesse.
Haha that Politano objective I gave a miss 😂 Too much work for a player I wouldn’t use. Helped some guy who I played in rivals though who I noticed was trying to do it
Ah nice one, I had a couple of games with help. I use Serie A anyway so just stuck some random silver CM up front and some other obscure players (still had people with Vardy and Rashford dabbing and watching replays ffs), managed to do it on Friday night/Sat morning so wasn’t too bad and was actually fun trying to score against people taking it so seriously.
Let us know what players you get from rewards, be good to see if you get some high end.

Congrats!
After forgetting to qualify before Saturday I've honestly had my most enjoyable weekend in weeks. Yes its a pity that I won't get the red picks when the TOTW looks like it could be really good but chances are I wouldn't have got any of the good ones anyway. So my answer to your question is no, I definitely do not find it enjoyable.

1st time I played this weekend mate, I can’t do it to myself, it’s like a completely different game style to me, I’m not the best in rivals, div 7 but even when I lose I have fun and score a few, weekend league I can’t score but get 8 put past me. I won 3 games lol. I will honestly never play weekend again.

Haha it’s defo a different game mate. I actually enjoyed FIFA 19 but this year I cannot say the same. When the fun stops, stop 🛑 😂
I used to get silver 1 or gold 3 every weekend in 19. I had a better team in all fairness, refusing to spend this year. Although even if I had a good team in 20 I don’t think I could do it this year I’m that ****

It got to much for me last year with working silly hours all week then trying to cram the games in around time with my family so this year I refuse to play it. Don’t miss it at all but congrats on hitting that

Don’t know how they do it tbh mate. When I’ve tried it I just have to much gap between attackers and midfielders
