Any recommendation of team I should use for career mode? Preferrably a team that plays in one of top 5 leagues, with nice history, young/fast players and nice kits.
I found that Grealish and Burke at Villa turn into major goosers, but as Villa's main export is melts I wouldn't pick them.
Other than Everton, I can't really reccommend any teams in particular. I only pick teams based on it being 'X' number of years since they did something.
For instance, on FIFA 14 I started at Swindon and won three titles in a row (even the Prem) as it was 20 years since they had "graced" the top flight. Blackburn this time as they won the Prem 20 years ago but they do have a decent squad, nice kits and rich history so maybe give them a try?
However, there's definitely some players to look out for.
For instance I got Blackburn up in the first season with 100+ points, then came 2nd in the Prem behind an unstoppable Chelsea. When I finally won the title in 2016-17 my squad was (from what I remember, original clubs in brackets).
GK - Alex McCarthy (Reading)
RB - Nathan Clyne (Soton)
CB - John Stones - captain
CB - Eric Dier/Jason Denayer (Spurs/Man City)
LB - Andrew Robertson (Hull)
CDM - Victor Wanyama (Soton) - vice captain
LM - Lucas Piazon (Chelsea)
RM - Breel Embolo (FC Basel)
CAM - Ravel Morrison (West Ham) - 88 rated by 2020!
ST - Jordan Rhodes (Blackburn)
ST - Luc Castaignos (PSV)
Bold players are must-haves. Buy them immediately when you start career as they go over 80+ quickly.....
You've no idea how many tvvattings I handed out with Rhodes and Morrison playing off each other.
Robertson only peaks at 79 but he's fast, hard-working and has a deadly tackle. I did use the "investment" booster from the EA Catalogue a couple of times, hence being able to afford them.
