pm aggro or anyone else from nobrain :p
Well, you get your players from the starter pack and they have contract for X games left, when they play that amount of games you can't use them anymore, pretty simple. Same with fitness (it always goes lower and you sometimes need to use the training drill card)...

You gotta recycle, start off by selling some players and buying better once while trying to find a bargain, first try to sell them only for like 50 (1 more value) then you bought them, or if you don't wanna go the hard way, just buy packs which costs shit loads of money and people get too addictive to it :D

Also build Brazil only squad from the beginning, they usually have the best cheap players, and use 3 at the back with one really fast defender and one really strong :D
xbox packs > ps4 packs
http://www.futhead.com/15/squads/28781723/ - one of my teams, got plenty. :) (playing on PC with XBOX controller)

use this site to know FUT better, most UT players use it, learn chemistry, know good players, the cheap ones as well.. I can help you build an excellent cheap starter squad or you can just search in this website for such squads.. make money by winning titles and cups, don't waste coins on packs untill you have a decent team to be backup and a main team that you like to play with.

Aim for 2 squads at first because that way you can save buying fitness cards, do a rotation and put on the bench and reserves the players from the other squad to gain fitness without losing coints on cards.. do so on both squads and you'll only have to buy contracts but those are cheap..

send me a pm if you need help in building a cheap and awesome starter squads :)
you've go an awesome team :D hell yeah it'd be nice if you could help me to collect some nice composition for the beginning :)

i'll definitely pm you mate, but tomorrow okay if you got time to help :p

As mentioned previously by destiny, use two teams, rotate for fitness. Player rating matters more than earlier fifa games, but low-rated golds are still good enough. Just make sure you've got players with key stats in the right positions and chemistry matters. Strong, tall & fast defenders + Strong, tall & fast attackers isn't exactly gonna hurt. Ultimate Team has always been nothing like H2H, it's turbo FIFA.

Get at least one defensive-minded player in the midfield. An underrated aspect of the midfield is aerial ability imo, some people just boot the ball from goalkicks straight up the field and winning aerial duels there is useful and it's difficult if you've got 3 hobbits there.

As for workrates, it's not crucial but avoid defenders with derpy workrates such as high/low (quite a lot of fullbacks have these, e.g Dani Alves). Strikers with med/high workrates can be annoying depending on your playstyle, but I used Kenwyne Jones, (Silver with med/high) to great effect as he made late runs into the box for easy headers. But that was a long time ago and since then they have nerfed headers afaik.

If you're using a 3-man midfield, I personally loved box-to-box type players with all-around stats. Kevin-Prince Boateng is the perfect example. Don't underestimate the importance of weak foot ratings. Players with 5 star weak foot are generally godlike and it's nice not having to bother too much with player positioning because of weak foot. If I was a person who liked to cut inside a lot and use finesse shots or something I would rather have a 64 rated bronze LW/LM/LCAM with 4-5 star weak foot than David Silva , Lukas Podolski or Angel Di Maria in in the same position for that reason, seriously.
hey! I've just seen your message.. journal gone from main page and i forgot about it :p

thanks for the tips! i'm kinda got some knowledge now, since the journal was craeted.

i've quite much free time recently and I played like 50 games already :D 40-4-7 so far, and I'm already in 3rd league. destiny helped me with the team at the begining and now i'm just upgradeing it. if you are interested to check it out, here is the link: http://www.futhead.com/15/squads/32141348/ + few more backups like Onuoha, Clyne, Fekir. Do you think I can upgrade it some more to keep the cohesion + boost the level of the team? its getting kinda hard to get france/BPL players that fit to this team and are better than those :D

I got some coins left still and Im thinking about making another team, I thought about Brazil with something like this: http://www.futhead.com/15/squads/32427383/ (not the final team yet, made it quite quick). Or you think I should go for some other team with other nations/league players? ;)

For French players I would consider at least trying some of these players to see if you like them or not:

Pogba: (obviously) goes without saying, expensive but a monster.

Benzema: You already have beast strikers in Lacazette and Remy that are both cheaper and potentially more OP. Rémy especially has always had crazy stats, both insane jumping/heading ability, pace and finishing. But Benzema has always been beast in FIFA so I would try him if you have the coins.

Gorcouff: 4* skills 5* weakfoot, High/Med workrates and great all around stats. Only defensive stats are somewhat lacking but they're still above average for such a player. I would play him at CM. I have liked him in every FIFA game. The only problem might be stamina, in earlier FIFA games stamina was always replaced by fitness in Ultimate Team so it wasn't an issue. But I think it might be different this year, you should ask destiny about stamina. I haven't played much UT this year.

Sissoko: Received an upgrade on his base card to 77. If you can get past his 2* skill moves and *2 weakfoot, he looks like an all-around monster.

Diaby: Has always been good, great all around stats

Hidden Gem: Steven N'Zonzi. I would consider trying him instead of Flamini at CDM, just because his stats would be perfect there. Tall, strong, good defensive stats, good balance, agility and dribbling for such a tall player.

As for your new team, there's a lot of different leagues that are cheap and good. But Brazilian team is always easy (especially if you're looking to win as much as possible :D). I don't have too many complaints about the team, coutinho is weak defensively and weak physically but he has ramires and fernandinho to back him up so it's np :D

If you want a real striker for the Brazilian try I would seriously consider Ari from Krasnodar, see if you can get his in-form card for cheap (http://www.futhead.com/15/players/40441/ari/)
He was such a monster in FIFA 14, I loved him (was a silver at that time). Now headers aren't as good but he should still be amazing. Adriano is also an option, I tried his first IF but it wasn't that great, he recieved a second one though so he might be viable now.
