Does anyone know what the cheapest possible squad is that will net you the "Big Cup" Squad Achievement? I looked around the market and came up with this squad but not sure if it will unlock the achievement or if it will unlock the achievement, if it is the cheapest squad that will.

 

ST: Rossi (Villarreal) – 8k

ST: Pedro (FC Barcelona) – 12k

RM: Reyes (Atletico Madrid) – 7k

CM: Sahin (Real Madrid) – 9k

CM: Cambiasso (Inter) – 8k

LM: Hazard (LOSC Lille) – 15k

RB: Nesta (Milan) – 5k

CB: Samuel (Inter) – 10k

CB: Lucio (Inter) – 25k

LB: Ashley Cole (Chelsea) – 25k

GK: Buffon (Juventus) – 10k

 

SUB: Akinfeev (GK – CSKA Moskva) – 3k

SUB: Diego Lopez (GK – Villarreal) – 3k

SUB: Adler (GK – Bay. Leverkusen) – 3k

SUB: Gotze (CAM – Bor. Dortmund) – 3k

SUB: Santi Cazorla (RM – Malaga) – 2k

SUB: Nene (LM – PSG) – 4k

SUB: Hamsik (CAM – Napoli) – 3k

 

TOTAL COST: 155k

 

Notes:

Hazard and Reyes should be bought as LW and RW respectively

 

Rossi should be bought as a CF

 

Pedro should be bought as a LW

 

Cambiasso should be bought as a CDM

 

Nesta is a CB playing out of position

 

This has a Starting 11 with all players at 85 and all 84 rated players on the bench which is what I was told was needed to unlock the achievement.

 

EDIT 10/30/11: I went to the liberty of price checking Bergentz's squad with the market as it stands at the end of October, THIS IS BERGENTZ SQUAD, all credit for it goes to him.

 

GK - Stekelenburg (85) 4k

GK - Valdes (85) 4k

CB - Nesta (85) 2k

CB - Hummels (84) 2k

CDM - Cambiasso (85) 3k

CM - Nuri Sahin (85) 3k

RM - Farfán (84) 1k

RW - Reyes (85) 3k

CF - Rossi (85) 4k

ST - Lisandro Lopez (84) 1k

ST - Gomez (86) 7k

 

Subs (all 84):

CM - Joao Moutinho 1k

CAM - Danny 750c

CAM - Mario Götze 1k

RM - Santi Cazorla 1k

CAM - Hamsik 1k

GK - Adler 1k

TOTAL COST: 40,750 coins

I just unlocked it using this squad:

 

GK - Stekelenburg (85)

GK - Valdes (85)

CB - Nesta (85)

CB - Hummels (84)

CDM - Cambiasso (85)

CM - Nuri Sahin (85)

RM - Farfán (84)

RW - Reyes (85)

CF - Rossi (85)

ST - Lisandro Lopez (84)

ST - Gomez (86)

 

Subs (all 84):

CM - Joao Moutinho

CAM - Danny

CAM - Mario Götze

RM - Santi Cazorla

CAM - Hamsik

GK - Adler

GK - Akinfeev

 

The most expensive player was Gomez for 15k, everyone else was cheaper than 10k. All 84 players cost around 3k, and the 85 around 6000-9000. So around 100,000 coins for the whole squad.

 

EDIT: It doesn't matter which positions everybody plays in, it's not affecting the average rating, so I didn't buy any LB och RB because they are so expensive.

Thanks for replying man, I revised the squad so it is comparable to yours in ratings, and it cut 50k of the price tag.

Awesome :D I'll try it out when I get enough coinage.

Is that like the cheapest possible squad or no?

Depending on which one you are talking about, I think Bergentz's squad is pretty close, the market fluctuates as well, all the prices I put by my post were done at like 7 pm GMT when a lot of people are on, but it may change depending on when you try and buy the players.

No problem. But I would change Ricardo Carvalho for Farfan (RM - Schalke, usually goes for about 2k), Hummels for Hernanes (CAM - Lazio, 3k) and Nene for Danny (CAM - Zenit, Russian League, 2k) to cut the price even more. Other than that it looks like the cheapest team if I'm not forgetting someone.

 

EDIT: Also change Samuel or Buffon for Stekelenburg (GK, Roma, 8k)

I am stuck on 84.

 

I dont get the maths on this one as i have to put in a lesser rated player, which results in lesser chemistry, yet the rating rises with the better player on the bench. It prefers Abiati over Steklenberg.

 

I am struggling to get a decent RB and LB, who are currently 82 and 81.

 

I can make a squad from 83's and above but the rating is higher when i include those full backs and drop a couple of 83's.

I was having the same trouble also when I first started going for this, I would try and put van bommel (82) and leidson (83) onto my subs bench in place of 81 rated players and it would drop my rating from 84 to 83.

 

I am still only on 84 now, but i have alot more 84s and 85s now so it doesnt seem to happen anymore. I am saving up to buy lham as I need a rb, and I am hoping his 87 will do the trick!

From my experience of playing UT put the highest rated players on the pitch regardless of position, the second highest on the bench and the rest as reserves. I just got the achievement with this squad and a chemistry of 44.

Walter Samuel CB 85 (acquired in one of my free packs)

Joao Filipe CM 84 (bought for 2500)

To my surprise I got the achievement last night. I have a number of players rated 82 and 83 but the chemistry is in the 90’s, so I wonder if that did help;

GK Stekelenberg 85

LB Fabio Contrao 82

CB Nesta 85

CB Samuel 85

RB Sergio Ramos 85

CDM Mascherano 86

CDM Alonso 86

CAM Hamsik 84

CAM Hernanes 84

CF Suarez 85

ST Forlan 84

GK Abiati 83

CB Toure 83

CDM Vidal 83

CAM Boateng 82

CF Cassano 83

CF Muller 83

ST Barrios 83

My squad can get a chemistry of 90 with a rating of 85, or chem at 97 but the rating goes down to 82 or 83 (using lesser rated Milan LB and CB I think). I am using a 4-2-3-1 formation (which is faulty in the game if anyone's noticed).

 

Half of my squad is most certainly cheap, i did have to pay big money for Suarez, Masch and Sergio Ramos.

 

Samuel, Forlan and Muller were all middle ground (10-15K)

 

The rest I am sure were under 10K, a few of those were under 5K.

 

I did get Alonso and Toure in packs, so i would estimate my squad may take around 200K to assemble.

This is an excellent thread. Ive got a suggestion that would make this cheevo easier to attain.

 

Do it in a group. The more the merrrier. If theres only two of you the cost is halved, four of you and it will only cost 26k (the guy said it would be round about 104k).

 

You all buy certain players, trade them to your mates, then sell or keep when your done. Make sure its done with people you trust however or you could get burnt.
