FIFA 16 Newcastle Career Mode Guide: 11 Things You Must Do

6. Don't Play 4-2-3-1

Newcastle's default 4-2-3-1 formation is too negative going forward on FIFA 16. Without a more skilful number ten the system is slow, rigid and unrewarding and Georginio Wijnaldum - despite having an 80 FUT rating - doesn't pose enough of a threat. The Magpies struggled to create chances and were unable to pose enough of an attack going forward during my first season at Newcastle. If you continue to play with only one striker you will struggle to finish in the top 10 and you should look to play a system that gives Aleksandar Mitrovic a partner.
