How to unlock the "Big Cup" Squad achievement in FIFA 12 - Definitive Guide

This achievement is for getting a squad rating of 85 or higher and then entering and playing a match in any tournament.

Basically you're going to need mid-high 80s rated players to earn an 85 rated squad. Subs count but reserves don't. Having said that make sure you put your highest rated players in the first 11. (You can have multiple goalkeepers in the frst 11, doesn't matter where you put them).

To get a squad rating of 85 you will need all of your players ratings to add up to at least 1521. The example squad below adds up to 1521. Having looked around the market, i think this is the cheapest squad to assemble. I have also included a rough price guide of how much each player usually goes for. It will definately earn you the achievement because its the exact squad used for mine.

Good luck :)

ive actually still got a 77 st, 79 rb,80 cb,80 lb and my squad rating is 84 so far,its not just about the player rating its also about your squad all being the same formation as if i take my 77 st out for a 84 forward my rating goes down to 83 because that player has a different formation to what my team plays

Just created a squad rated 1521 and it was still rated 84. Identical to the one in the solution but with two 85 goalkeepers.

So I'm thinking that you can't put two goalies in the starting 11 without affecting the rating. Gonna have to sell one of them and get an outfield 85 instead.

Hurball- I played Buffon as a GK and Stekelenburg as a RB so you can get it with two GKs. Make sure all the highest rated players are in the starting XI. I originally had Farfan [84] at RB and the rating was 84 but when I put Stekelenburg at RB it went up to 85.

I agree it has to be more than just top ranted players. Everyone I have is in the correct formation 4321. I'm at 84 but I have Anderson 77 on sub, I can't change him out for anyone or it drops to 83. I've tried 83s up to 85s, any position and still goes down.

Shop around and pick a shitty formation that nobody plays with as you'll find cheaper versions of most of the players listed.

I picked 3-4-2-1 and instead of using buy now I searched for specific players (by inputting their position, nationality and club) and bid on low valued ones near their time limit. Set a limit in mind based on how much he usually goes for and don't exceed it, another one is probably just around the corner.

I managed to build my 85 squad for just over 31,000 coins using this method. It may take a little longer but the spendthrift laughs last and longest. Now I'm trading most of them back in for pretty big profits.

I'm wondering if the Manager also has to be a gold card? Because i have team rating 85 and a bronze manager, played 1 game and ach didnt pop for me :(

Or another theory, do the players have to be for for the "exact" spot - for example does a CB has to be placed on a CB slot or can you out a GK there?

thanks

You should put the players actual positions. Like Nesta is a CB and Farfan is Midfield. Gets confusing. Im trying it now though as I want this achievement and I have 100k :)

Used this team to unlock mine. Can't be bothered creating a new solution so I thought I'd add it in here.


GK- Buffon [85]- Juventus- 5,500
GK- Stekelenburg [85]- Ajax- 3,100
CB- Nesta [85]- Milan- 3,900
CB- Chiellini [84]- Juventus- in a pack (7,500)
DM- Cambiasso [85]- Inter- 3,600
RW- Reyes [85]- Atletico- 4,800
CM- Sahin [85]- R.Madrid- 3,600
AM- Hernanes [84]- Lazio- 1,900
RM- Cazorla [84]- Malaga- 1,400
CF- Rossi [85]- Villarreal- 3,900
ST- Gomez [86]- B.Munich- 6,500

GK- Adler [84]- B.Leverkusen- 1,600
GK- Akinfeev [84]- CSKA Moscow- 1,300
GK- D.Lopez [84]- Villarreal- 1,500
RM- Farfan [84]- Schalke- 1,100
CM- Moutinho [84]- Porto- 950
AM- Danny [84]- Zenit- 1,700
ST- L.Lopez [84]- Lyon- 1,500

Total: 55,350

Use Götze, Hummels or Samuel instead of Chiellini if you're buying all these players from the market as it will be cheaper.

This achievement can be extremely frustrating to get as you need to have players with ratings in the mid to high 80's.

To find out how your doing with your squad theres a number next to you rating and this tells you what rating your squads currently at.

My team i put together to obtain this achievement consisted of :-

GK - Stekelenburg (85) Roma
RB - Daniel Alves (86) Bareclona
CB - Alessandro Nesta (85) Milan
RB - Sergio Ramos (85) Real Madrid
CB - Walter Samuel (85) Inter Milan
RW - Jose Reyes (85) Atletico Madrid
CAM - Frank Lampard (87) Chelsea
CAM - Hernanes (84) Lazio
LM - Nene (84) PSG
CF - Giuseppe Rossi (85) Villarreal
CF - Robinho - (84) Milan

Subs

CB - Vermaelen (83) Arsenal
ST - Benzema (84) Real Madrid
CAM - Aimar (83) Benfica
CAM - Renato Augusto (83) Bay Leverkusen
LW - Malouda - (84) Chelsea
RM - Farfan - (84) Schalke
GK - Diego Lopez (84) Villarreal

Hopefully this will give you some idea of what you have to assemble as a team to get this. If your having no luck buying packets to get players you can pick some higher rating players on the trade market for between 600 coins - 1000 coins (Or even cheaper depending on what time your doing the markets and how busy it is)

How did you find 85+ rated players for 1000 coins? Whenever I find any cards rated 85 they sell for at least 6000 each.

I believe so yes , As the total seems to change when i put a lower card on the subs bench. As i say this was just the team i assembled to get the achievement. Im guessings theres 1000's of other combinations that can be used you've just got to get the right combination with high levels

Im not saying all of them , some of the players in the list there i got in packets (I dropped lucky with a couple of them). Certain players such as Nesta , Samuel you can pick up cheap. The bigger the name of the player the more coins your going to have to spend.

Allright I just want to add something.
I started working on the squad OlsAbsss x made.
It is a really nice one.

My final team was this one which has a rating of 85.

CF: 85 Rossi (Villarreal) 3k
ST: 86 Gomez (Bayern Munchen) 5,5k
RW: 85 Reyes (Atletico Madrid) 3k
CM: 85 Sahin (Real Madrid) 3,3k
CDM: 85 Cambiasso (Inter) 2,8k
CAM: 84 Danny (Zenit) 0,8k
CB: 85 Nesta (Milan) 2k
LW: 84 Malouda (Chelsea) 1,6k
CAM: 84 Hernanes (Lazio) 1,2k
RM: 84 Farfan (Schalke 04) 0,7k
GK: 85 Steklenburg (Roma) 2,2k

SUB: 85 Buffon (GK - Juventus) 3,5k
SUB: 84 Diego Lopez (GK - Villarreal) 1,3k
SUB: 84 Adler (GK - Bay. Leverkusen) 1k
SUB: 84 Hamsik (CAM - Napoli) 1,2k
SUB: 83 Pazzini (ST - Inter) 0,8k
SUB: 80 Olic (ST - Bayern Mun.) 0,5k
SUB: 78 Medel (CDM - Sevilla) Got it in a pack.

Of course the 80 and 78 player are really cheap to get.
I will do the math for you, this team cost me 34,4k.

Especially keepers are very cheap to get.

For this, you must finish an UT tournament match with an overall squad rating of 85 or higher. Please refer to this thread for the cheapest team to reach this amount. Thanks to DerFuhrer for the thread.

Note: Some of the posts from DerFuhrer's thread are somewhat old. Realise that certain player's prizes may have increased/decreased. Do not blindly follow any given squad in the thread, but try to get the cheapest one (watch out for only buying 84's though).

We go to Ultimate Team and create a team of the best football players in the world (with overall indicators of at least 85-86, including reserve players), and monitor the team rating there (in the upper right corner above the teamwork). As soon as the rating has increased to 85 or higher, we enter the tournament (it doesn’t matter Online or Offline). And we finish the match until the end. You don't have to win. (A simple match won't work.)

not necessarily with scores higher than 85. In my team there were 11 players with a rating of 85, 2 players with an 86 rating and 5 people with a rating of 84. Everything was a success.

opened the trophy with ONLY 11 players on the team with an 85 rating. In general, the 83 biggest were sitting in the reserves.... There was no money to buy a defender with an 85 rating and I bought a GOALKEEPER for his position.

Composition of the trophy team

VRT Skekelenburg Roma 2400

VRT Valdes Barcelona 1200

PROTECTION Nesta Milan 1700

PROTECTION Samuel Inter 3500

PROTECTION Ferreira Real Mdr 5700

PLZ Farfan Shalke 1000

PLZ Mascherano Barcelona 4400

PLZ Sahin Real Mdr 2000

PLZ Cambiasso Inter 1700

NAP Pedro Barcelona 3800

NAP Rossi Villarreal 2400

the price for the auction can be either higher or lower. It’s more profitable to search for a position directly from the club - beginning players are cheaply draining valuable players due to inexperience. I have a rating of 81-83 in stock

I will add that reserve players do not have to be 85+; they can be taken weaker, since they have less influence on the overall team rating. It is also not necessary that the players’ roles correspond to the position on the field - this also does not in any way affect the team’s rating or the receipt of the trophy. So you can include at least five goalkeepers in the starting lineup. I achieved a rating of 85 with six players in the starting lineup with a rating of 85, two with an 86 and two with an 84, and in the reserve there were four players 81, one 82, one 83 and another 85. We simply buy the cheapest players with such ratings, not looking at the schemes, club and nationality, we sail them for one match, get a trophy, and put it back up for sale (with some luck you can even make money )

I noticed that if you add the rating of all the players on the team (with a rating of 85), the total will be 1519 or more. It turns out that in order for a team’s rating to be 85, the total of the starting and reserve players needs to be 1519. When buying players, you just need to go to this amount, and it’s not difficult to calculate..

I also noticed that it is not at all necessary for everyone to be 85 or older. For example, one player with a rating of 86 allows you to have several players with a rating of 84 (and 84 costs much less than 85). Here is my lineup for this medal.


Higuain 85

Rossi 85

Robinho 84

Pato 85

Cambiasso 85

Sahin 85

R. Carvalho 84

Nesta 85

Humels 84

Mascherano 86

Stekelenburg 85

The shop generally has a maximum of 84

Farfan 84

Michel Bastos 83

Welliton 83

Helton 82

Hernandez 82

Weidenfeller 82

Boateng 82
