Best Things In FIFA 15 Are Free Transfers

The best thing in life is free, do you think so?

Since a manager is as only as good as his signings, if he has no transfer budget to make any, it’s unlikely he’s going to be particularly successful with the just the previous manager’s favorites at his disposal. Particularly if those same players got the predecessor sacked.

But even with no money, when taking over a new club, a manager needs to put his own stamp on things, and there is good news for FIFA managers looking to do just that without the luxury of playing with a moneybags side where embarrassingly expensive signings are an inevitability.

The sacred Bosman ruling has changed the game of football for the sneakier, allowing players to talk to other clubs and engineer transfers without a fee six months before the deal at their current club expires. So with that in mind, it’s worthwhile looking through the list of players who are in the last year of their deals at the start of career mode. All are talented, and all should be considered genuinely good contenders to offer pre-contracts to in the January 2015 transfer window. And bear in mind, don’t go blowing all of your wage budget when you could have any of these lads a few months down the line.

So if you’re taking over a cash-strapped club or merely love a bargain these are the 20 best players you can pick up for absolutely nothing from the first January in your new game.

FIFA 15 Web App Down Yesterday: Crowded

Following EA servers going down just the day before yesterday, we notice thousands reporting FIFA 15 web app problems within the last 30 minutes and this is impacting most regions. Other issues being reported yesterday morning are for Xbox 360 and One owners, although it’s not clear if the PlayStation platform is having similar outages.

In regard to the FIFA 15 web app, EA hasn’t confirmed any outage or minor problems for January 28, 2015. This is pretty normal considering the downtime has taken place within the last hour, so they might be trying to figure out what’s going on before leaving a tweet answering many complaints.

One Product Reviews reader said, “the web app won’t load, I think it’s down”. Another added, “I’m having the same problems for xbox 360, it is a joke following the servers not working yesterday”.

The Down yesterday website is also receiving status updates for both EA servers on Jan 28, and the Ultimate Team online mode. This is what one of their readers said, “I’m connected to servers on Fifa 15 Xbox 360 but it won’t let me go onto ultimate team? What’s going on EA?”.

Update: The error message being displayed states, “there was a problem communicating with the FIFA Ultimate Team servers”.
