[@lm_Cray]

Ever since I started watching your tutorial videos I've become such a better payer. Up I have by far the best fifa tut vids on the internet and deserve way more subs. You're my favorite fifa youtuber and I just want to say thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos and thank you for helping me become a better player. I'd love to play against you one of these days to see how well your tuts taught me. Keep up the good work Mike!

[@MikeLaBelle]

[@mongagiorgio]

For the manual cutback do you change your auto switching to manual? Because mine is on "air balls"

[@MikeLaBelle]

I dont change the auto switch.. air balls for me also

[@16blank45]

I need to know: how are you able to record the gameplay from the Playstation? I have a PS3, and I would love to be able to do it.

[@TAEHSAEN]

Great video as always boss!

[@MikeLaBelle]

Thanks G

[@EviLTrickzHD]

Great Tutorial Mike, the Early Cutback is so effective especially when you combo it up with the Body Feint. Keep the awesome vids coming bro :)

[@MikeLaBelle]

Yea I love mixing that into the matches

[@aaronleonard641]

when i use down the line cross or any of the others it doesnt matter how much power i use it never comes off what am i doing wrong it always goes over to the other side of the box. what am i doing wrong? thanks mike :)

[@MikeLaBelle]

what are your crossing settings?

[@JeffHartle]

Thanks for this video mike. Ronaldo's early cross today vs USA made me wanna watch this tutorial. Good content here. Loved it

[@kamalakarreddy92]

how much power am i supposed to give?

[@terrencetwynham4373]

You are awesome bro...really know what you talking about...

[@MikeLaBelle]

thanks - yea I take pride in understanding the game well :)

[@striker045]

this was actually pretty helpful, most people would take a crossing video for granted

[@MikeLaBelle]

Thanks brother, I know people enjoy the crossing techniques even if some of them don't wanna comment about the potential sweat ha.. You need to be able to play up the middle & cross to be a complete FIFA player imo

[@striker045]

sweat is a word created by people who cant adjust to the way people play... so when people get goals scored on them, (in their heads) its not their fault and they dont feel bad as a madden pro, ive been told i was a cheater for things we do like jumping up and getting huge consistently on user catches, being able to consistently blitz and have a guy run free at the qb (without sending more guys than there are blockers) and dropping 9-10 guys in coverage which is highly effective but highly unrealistic anyways, i guess i used to think headers were cheap goals back in the day, then i learned that i could click onto the defender in the box and cover more than one cross option by myself at the same time, on top of being more aware of the numbers i have back, who's covering who, and knowing when to go in for the tackle in a split second #endrant professional madden has given me such an advantage on fifa, i really am feeling myself on this game... friendly paypal or gamersaloon $ game? i doubt you wanna play any freebies mike, i asked a while ago i have too much to discuss on this god damned game and nowhere else to go with it hahahaha

[@MikeLaBelle]

You know what's funny, I actually was a madden pro prior to getting into FIFA

[@striker045]

won anything big? how long ago?

[@striker045]

i used to watch madden nation and never think i could be that good, now im friends with most of em lol

[@p11471721]

What's your opinion on 4141 mike?

[@MikeLaBelle]

too defensive for me, but a lot of people enjoy using the formation.. depends if you attack w/ slow build up or quick counters imo

[@imp0rtt]

Love the vids mich. Just wondering how do u aim when your trying to score a header

[@MikeLaBelle]

with left analog.. the jostling & timing is key to scoring headers

[@p11471721]

I've been playing it with Bayern in h2h and it's a really good over lapping team... I was wondering mike if you could do like a new series running though each formation making a new hybrid each time

[@MikeLaBelle]

Yea I was thinking about full formation reviews & how to showcase it the best

[@p11471721]

I would love to see what formations you like or not... And I'm pretty sure your other subs would like to see it aswell :)

[@MikeLaBelle]

exactly, could be a good look

[@crackheahjones2725]

great video can you do the top 5 strikers who cost more than 10 000 last time youve done the affordable strikers

[@MikeLaBelle]

Yea I was just thinking about that

[@furioustariq540]

its been helpful thx bro :)

[@MikeLaBelle]

right on :)

[@coltenparker999]

What formation do you use

[@doolyskating]

Early cross goes hard aha especially to Give a little extra hangtime for a bicycle/scissor kick. Nice vid, mr. Consistency lol

[@MikeLaBelle]

Yea for sure bro, thanks homie

[@oliverbarrett7388]

Your tutorials are epic

[@MikeLaBelle]

thanks man!

[@keesh7]

Hey man can you do a finesse tutorial if you already haven't? I haven't been able to use it as well as I have in the previous FIFAs.

[@MikeLaBelle]

Yea let me see what I can do

[@keesh7]

Thanks bro :D

[@wlouisharris]

I am going to try some of the techniques. So far the cross has been pretty useless for me. I keep crossing yet the ball goes straight to a defender. The only way I can score goals is attacking the middle of the field near the opponents goal box. I can start the attack from the wing but have to work it inside. Also I don't get how you are saying you don't have to aim. Maybe I am still aiming by accident as I am using it to run. It would be helpful if you had video showing the players joystick movements. Still I think this is a pretty solid game that is challenging. Any game that is too easy gets old really fast.

[@MrZOZOTHEGOD]

How much power should you apply?

[@acitboy77]

Awesome vid subbed

[@MikeLaBelle]

cheers bro

[@DRAGONswag33]

fifa 14 is great when you don't cross! it's a real game that takes skill... anyways good vid mike :P I hope people try playing with no crosses or corners with yer mates, some great goals, and a way better game.

[@oyindenyafatarakeme]

what direction you should hold while delivering the cross?

[@MrBeastyBaker]

Hey man! Thanks for the Sub means alot! Love the tutorials! Keep it up :) followed you on twitter!!

[@reesecarter5275]

Do u have a Liverpool squad on fut

[@prithwi1000]

can u give me your defending tips and how to beat 5 defenders brother ?

[@NotHurtYet]

You never really explain how to do the other crosses....do you still use LB + X?

[@FunkyMonkey576]

can someone please help me? when i got to the practice arena where the goal is in front of you and its just the goalie i have no problem performing skill moves. when i go go into the actual playing field where the goals are on the side i would do the same move but it doesn't work? is there a way you position the player or what?

[@joehart8945]

do the same kills so if its a rainbow flick in the practice arena it will be down up up but in game if your trying to score on the right hand side it will left right right i dont know if you get it but yeah

[@graham11545]

ok back out was out of fifa for while but now back in i have alot of video catching up 2 do but it is worth it

[@MikeLaBelle]

awesome bro - good to hear it

[@SamyyJr]

Wait so how do you do the 2v1 sweat? XD

[@Seph.0]

Did you watch the video?

[@bigbal80]

Ragna Uchiha Im new to FIFA and i was wondering also. is it just LB and cross? or something else? just curious..

[@86Qura]

whenever i cross it ALWAYS goes to my other winger, no matter what i do. Im an experienced fifa player and i consider myself a decent player, but i cant fix this! can someone tell me what to do?!

[@MikeLaBelle]

what are your crossing settings?

[@86Qura]

i've set everything to default and changed the crossing to semi

[@MikeLaBelle]

this is what I use EASIEST WAY TO MAKE EXTRA COINS! (My) Best Gameplay Settings in FIFA 14 Ultimate Team (FUT 14)

[@MikeLaBelle]

are you using the early cross a lot ?

[@86Qura]

not at all, could it be that im aiming upwards? (when im running on the right wing)

[@Guimcu]

Thanks for the tips Mike!, Still, I don't know if i got it right for the 2v1 sweat... Is it an early cross (L1) aimed to the far post using the left stick with more power?

[@xPOSTALx]

So we can aim with the L stick for the cross

[@hondurenio4life]

How about a tutorial on dribble moves that are helpful, cuz I would really like to be able to beat the CPU on world class difficulty consistently or at least close to it

[@MikeLaBelle]

Yea I have multiple skill move tutorials - have you seen them?

[@hondurenio4life]

I actually haven't I'm new to the channel. Didn't know u had skill move tutorials

[@MikeLaBelle]

Check out my tutorial playlist

[@TheLonelyFreddo]

gained a sub :)

[@MikeLaBelle]

Glad to have you :)

[@montatheralamyal4070]

What formation does he use

[@Lewis2145]

Kind of almost near first!

[@PepsiFIFA]

Gotta love that 2v1 sweat. No chance :p

[@MikeLaBelle]

Dirty Pep Attack

[@Hadifele]

Smi assisted how can i change it ?!

[@melodies5369]

Don't worry, by default crossing is semi-assited

[@ridemooses]

I'm assuming these are all LB + X.

[@MikeLaBelle]

not all - but prolly around 75%

[@ridemooses]

What are the rest?

[@MikeLaBelle]

regular cross

[@dariy1999]

thanx)

[@irsubber]

Sem eye assisted

[@MikeLaBelle]

yes

[@zaldare]

Thanks for teaching me this. Im a fucking idiot for not figuring this out! I mean, i've played FIFA for so many years and just recently i reached Div 1 on UT but i've never used Early Crosses, Low Crosses, complicated dribbling or anything other than the basic manoeuvres.

[@fifabandit4026]

BULLLSHIT ALARMMM

[@MikeLaBelle]

zaldare Right on brother

[@zaldare]

FifaBandit Its the wholehearted truth, yes im an idiot :)

[@12chapiman]

gotta absolutely #useandabuseit

[@MikeLaBelle]

yes sir

[@Fruitdev01]

MLAPA JOHNSON SANTANA=PERFECT FOR CROSSES XD :D got esswien and hurrmann crossin them in as well xD :P :)

[@drmoiz1989]

Jesus the sell out in the start

[@kevow999]

I never win the headers... Rarely with a cross :(

[@gustasmisenis9086]

get a player who has high header stat

[@Chiller_ruben]

I bought 25k on fifa coins today. Payed for it thru paypal. Gave them my player info and transaction id and still haven't received it. I bought it about a week ago

[@MikeLaBelle]

shoot me a message, w/ the transaction information.. But I thought the minimum purchase was 50k??

[@Chiller_ruben]

Dirty Mike (michs09) - FIFA 14 Tips / Tutorials Thanks. I sent you a pm

[@omarr876]

Jesus navas ?

[@MikeLaBelle]

yea solid crosser in FIFA

[@ignaciomendia4435]

No mike, please just don´t. At least the clips didn´t include Christian the one that shall not be named

[@MikeLaBelle]

haha, he's automatic

[@alexanderpedersen4094]

MILAN

[@mileschicken1]

FIFA 14 you require no technique for crossing all you have to do is abuse X and then press B and you'll score.

[@NotHurtYet]

You are dumb if you believe that.

[@Playmaker14]

Meh..

[@hajy642]
