Is there any other idea that would be better?
I'm still rocking FIFA 14. Love FUT, but the market has gone to hell since '16 came out. I've been focusing on a couple of career players. Got a CAM that's worked his way up to Man U first team and a striker trying to make the Arsenal first team. The striker is currently dominating the Championship at Bournemouth. I should probably up the difficulty, considering I'm on pace to score an insane number of goals. And by insane, I mean 60+ is within the realm of possibility. I'm already over 50, if I'm remembering correctly. The problem is there just aren't as many achievements for strikers to complete as midfielders. Plus I suck at using skilled dribbling. If I could do that, I'd be completely unstoppable.

Btw, here's a helpful trick to make your career player progress faster: Start him off at an MLS club and decline loan options during the summer window. Odds are your team will suck early and the manager will give your player a shot. You'll likely find yourself starting really soon. Then play through the MLS season and gain ridiculous experience against a fairly bad league. Request a transfer or loan during the January window and join a lower division Euro league team. You could be mid-70s easy by the time the second summer window rolls around and have a legit shot at playing for a club in one of the top Euro leagues.
