FIFA 19: 10 Expert Tips To Play Like A Boss

5. Only Use Timed Finishing With The World's Best

Say your beloved West Brom are locked in an intense Championship six-pointer against someone like Stoke City, and the ball just happens to bounce off a defender's boot and land neatly in the path of Newcastle loanee Dwight Gayle. The tempting thing to do would be to fire off a shot as quicky as you can.

Not today, Baggies.

Gayle isn't a good enough player to take advantage of FIFA 19's flashy new 'Timed Finishing' system. Your frantic taps of the shoot button will only leave the timing metre in the red and have Stoke fans giggling as they watch the attacker trickle one wide. That timed mechanic should only be used with the game's best.

OK, so Man Utd man Jesse Lingard has a better chance than Gayle of scoring in the picture above. There's a good chance he won't however, and that's because 'Timed Finishing' is hard as bloody nails. Unless it's Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar or someone slightly further down the scale like Cavani, don't bother.
