Yeah that sounds like a shriek and I have to "git gud" but I'm fed up with being poor in this game, I've never felt better in anything, and I have a very good team as I was very lucky with the packages, I have 700,000 coins that I hold II Always instead of spending it as I always think "I might need it" or any players I buy I sell after a few games because "Coins are king"
I must have tried every formation in the game and people always say "use what suits your playing style" but I can't have a playing style because everything in the game is 100 mph or a skill that you can't approach, and for attacking everyone just still stands
I tried all the advice that the professionals say, sorted out my camera angle, and don't raced into the attack (which is useless because the enemy is running directly to you and taking the ball)
It may be only because I am in my mid-thirties and my reactions have gone, but I honestly win one game and then lose 4-5 all the time while they are being pushed and wet by people who may be young enough to become my son
I'm constantly thinking of things to try to relax and enjoy the game again for me whether it's a squad or a marquee (s) player then I look at some YouTube users getting 30-0 in the league, and I think how hell does they do that in the game and they come out, I don't I say I want to win every game, but I know I like to get to the point where I go to every game, thinking that I can win
Any advice (or no aversion to patients) no doubt is welcome in the comments
I found watching a YouTuber called fifa analyst to be quite helpful recently. My team is only average at this stage and this year I seem to hover between low d6 to high d8, but in the last two weeks I have been winning most of my div rivals matches and I think for the first time this year moved into d5. Still not good but I feel like every game I have the control.
I am also in my mid thirties. Yes reflex is lower and does affect but it’s possible to do better.
Hey people. Is it a joke? )) this post and every coment)) like i found myself )) exact same thing to me. Div5 too and with family and atc… sometimes team just doesn,t work. Sometimes all players run like a beasts. It turns me mad too sometimes. But, u know u kinda go with fifa like a pro and mastering all the hidden things in the game, like to play not a football but fifa. I really think that pro fifa and football are way too far feim eachother.Other way u can go for fun, just play football, have your childhood star in your team and have fun.
Good luck bros
If it’s effecting your mental health, particularly to the point where you think it could get to the stage where you lose the will to live – take a long break and do something else. Fifa is a garbage game and not worth the stress
I think this fifa is mostly about how you defend. No matter how much you try in the opponent’s side a counter attack from a good defend has higher chance of getting a goal than trying your best to pass around to get a goal. Try your best to defend and get the ball in the middle . Dont rush into interceptions and play it slow.
Gameplay is extremely inconsistent, whether it’s scripting, servers, etc it doesn’t matter. First step is to realize that there’s a strong element of luck/ things you cannot control.
Being in mid 30s isn’t an issue imo. I’m 32, used to play fifa religiously as a kid (98 – 06). Stopped and just 3 months ago picked it up. Was mystified at how different it became but slowly improved (div 8 to 3 almost 2 now).
How: know when to turn on the ball/ ball roll/ pass to the side and then work my way into the middle. Slower build up means more runs by your players, but don’t lose focus, make sure you keep the ball moving, between your CMs, and get the wingers involved. On defense, don’t overcommit CBs but use them to force the attacker away from goal, I find it works best with two cms or cdms, 4 or 5 width and 4 or 5 depth.
I live with my gf and work so I cannot play much, but try to watch the highlights games I lost to see how I conceded. Also texted a couple of players whom it was impossible to score against and asked them for tips.
I don’t even bother caring anymore , I went 18-5 in WL then can Barely win a game in rivals and feels like a different team. I concede just As many now with icon defenders than I did with a 85 rated defence.
i absolutely feel u, im in kind of a similar situation. Almost all games i loose in wl i dont feel that im worse than the opponent. And all the time im asking myself if im just too stupid to recognize that im worse (why else would i loose). And honestly, i think its just the game.
E.g. this week, im playing with my 25 mil coin team and an untradable gold player team to not spend coins on squad fitness cards and every game with the cheap team feels easier than playing with the expansive squad. Its no coinsedence
My solution to this: i picked to very offensive formations and just play wl without trying to hard. Ending up in gold anyways and its so much more relaxing if u stop caring that much
Spend a couple hours watching videos from these 3 channels…

As a guy that played fifa from 09-13 and was actually really good, i took a break from fifa until this year and i had these same thoughts the first 2-3 months. Best advice i can give is use a formation with atleast one CDM(i use 4231) and stick with it. Constantly changing players anf formations makes you over think. Keep a simple play style and master fake passes?fake shots before getting into skill moves. GL HF
If you are on ps4, I’m happy to add you as a friend and we can play some friendlies together and i can help u out man.
I’m an average div 4 player, so don’t expect Professor Fifa here😂
what made me losing alot of games were my goalkeeper alisson gold, this guy is pure thrash, i changed to van der sar and started to win more and more games just by this.
Play a 424 with all strikers (90+pace). You will probably win some, at least more than you’ve won so far.
Play it like me. One day in month 🙂. It is enough to realise that fifa is no fun shit.
Wait… you can change your camera settings ??
I’m in my 30’s as well and I feel the same. I see the names of people and most say 01, 05, 07 etc which means they are my daughters age and they whoop me. I’m in div 5 and yesterday I won 5 games in a row. Logged off for a few hours, went back later and lost 7 in a row. No joke at all. I think ea scripting exists. I swear to god, when I went back to play the second time every touch my players took was wrong, every shot was a joke, my keeper wasn’t stopping a single shot and I honestly believe the players I beat earlier in the day were much much better than the ones I lost to.
play the game for fun, if you’re not enjoying it take a break.
possession wins games
