The FIFA 23 Coins you play in October does not always match the one you play by the following August. This is the amount of post-launch tweaking that is carried out by EA in the course of players figuring out what the games strengths are and weak points. At present, there's a noticeable fluidity to the way FIFA 23 plays, thanks to the smoother movement and precise application of the speed button , giving you more time and space as opposed to last year's slightly congested matches.

They are more adept at looking for spaces to provide you with passing alternatives, which encourages patience when attacking, however it is still necessary to play with a decent tempo to get through an organised opposition defence.

They are also more difficult to get off than normal shots, allowing defenders to get a block in and the camera moves in slightly to warn your opponent of what you're up to, which is a long way away from a goal.

Set pieces are now requiring an understanding of the basics of physics, with the game giving players full control of where the taker strikes the ball. It's much easier to grasp corners than free kicks, as you must be more precise and it's a lot more sense than the bizarre stick-flicking system that was used within FIFA 22. Penalties are also being revamped with a brand new timing-based system that puts more pressure on the taker in a way that is perhaps how it should be.

The most confident and high-quality centre-half in football in the last 10 years, and it's not all so far. Liverpool have made the most successful, most shrewd purchase of their recent history by acquiring Virgil for a reasonably paltry cost from Southampton all those years ago. In the air, almost unbeatable, and FUT 23 Coins buy hugely composed on the ball, even up to it was a particular William Saliba this season, VVD has set the bar for all EPL defenses.
