Hi mate, from UK too! I was new to Madden about 5 years ago, and spent the first 2 years on Madden starting off with the Skills Trainer. It'll give you a starting level of defensive and offensive concepts (how to read what sort of formation the defence is in, and what routes will beat that defense). When to run, when to pass. It'll give you a base understanding that you can then continue to grow. I was also lucky to play a lot of online games vs a friend to continue understanding it, so try and do that if u can. However it is not an easy game, it'll take a couple of years to fully understand it, minimum, but that's what makes it so exciting for me... learning and improving every year.

Hiya mate! UK represent hahaha where can I find the skills trainer? Sounds like something I need tbh none of my friends like the NFL so I don't think they will wanna play haha, do you have any player suggestions on who I could pick up?

It's not in mut - it's in the main menu. OK no probs - just play as many H2H games (not MUT, but maybe Draft champions) try out the different playbooks for different teams to see what works. No player suggestions, not played any games this year myself barr Solos, but you can try some out when you play H2H /draft champs and see what works for you?

Ah right okay, I'll have a look tomorrow then when the game is out... is the gameplay similar in those modes to MUT?

Yes :) draft champions won't have superstar abilities however.
