I did the Begoviv and Butland SBCs too. Needed a sub keeper as I traded in my untradeable Begovic in for the Chelsea SBC. Figured I can keep one and use one in another Futties SBC as I want to keep the Bailly.
Got the 87 Smalling and 87 Kane from SBCs last night too.
Did the Smalling SBC with essentially the last of my reds and untradeable golds.
He's a proper menace. Seems to intercept everything. Comes away with the ball in tackles more too. I expect it might be closer between Butland and Begovic than I think. Still, Butland gets my nod. Also you can't use the kit you get with Smalling. You're just advertising you have him and people back straight out.
You'll probably see Sanches, but I'm not sure who else. Maybe Kante but he has lots of other cards. Mousa Dembele or Nainggolan. Possibly also Matuidi.
Never going to stop using my Ajax kits anyway
I can't imagine they would do another Kante. Would be madness
They've released some of the backdated SBCs. But they've gone and made them all loan rewards only. Kind of pointless.
That El Rondo SBC for a OTW is a cunt.
Especially as I only got Guedes
Loan only re-release SBCs?!
They've absolutely bottled the end of season stuff. Both TOTS & Futties have been disgraceful. I might not even bother getting the boosted Futtie cards at this rate.
Indeed. Twitter/Reddit is currently trying to take them to task over it, but they'll probably just ignore it.
It's a shambles. This end of season stuff is supposed to reward those still playing, not laugh at them.
The re-run SBC's being loans is a new low. What the fuck were they thinking?
How did you do it? I can only get to 61 chemistry so far, and I still have a shed load of wank golds in the club so must have the players in there somewhere.Originally Posted by Sir Andy Mahowry

Done it.
3 pairs of leagues.
Fucking Morgan Schneiderlin.
He's getting put into an end of an era SBC.
It was something like this:
https://www.futbin.com/17/squad/5071935
Basically 3 from one league, 3 from another and the final being a national link between the two.
At least you got an 82.
Guedes is only 77 so absolutely fucking useless.
I did it & got Sakho, so I'll probably use him for something at some point. Had to use two Futties cards (did Trapp just to bung him in) & an untradeable TOTS player in the Smalling SBC as I don't have any spare gold cards between 83 & 87 ratedAlso had to do the loyalty glitch to get up to chem. Not looking good considering I want to do at least two more (Butland & Sanches). I do at least have 350k+ in spare coins to be able to buy 85 rated players with though, so I should be fine, if a little poorer at the end of it.
Might do a couple of the SBCs, since they're pretty easy, but then half the players are shit by end of game standards so maybe I'll just do them if I have the stuff in my club,
If you're talking league SBC's and you have gold packs still on the table I'd do them. Due to the El Rondo SBC any old shit (from a reasonably well represented nation playing abroad) is going for hugely inflated sums. I have shitloads of players that were worth buttons previously that I hadn't been arsed to sell as a result. I made a cuppa and came back to find I'd sold 9 players for 17k. Wallace at Lazio for 3,900 coins, Defrel at Sassulo for 2,600.
Must be up to about 100k in the last half an hour alone.
Did the OTW with players from the club while on mobile. Going to wait until I am on the PlayStation to open the pack

Who is the best player that could be pulled?
Assuming it's all of them 93 Higuain

Pogba is the best pull, but good luck with that.
The amount of shitty golds that are selling right now
I'm averaging about 2k a player and I've sold 100 already.
Just picked up TOTS Keita for 154k.
Anyone used Ibra?
I am thinking about doing the loan thing and seeing how he is.
Current Squad
Toggle Spoiler
I am thinking I can sell Sanchez, get his 87 and chuck that out left in rotation with Martial. Then look to pick up Ibra/Aguero to play upfront. The fact I havent seen anyone use either of those worries me though.
Same with De Bruyne. Anyone tired him? I never see him.
Without silly money I am struggling to think where I can improve.
Don't see the point of the MM's this week.
Free Scream player? Unless they're going to boost them again it's bollocks.
I have a few Mexican players and a midgetland player so I'll probably do them
Just realised that I've never tried the draft mode so I plunged in:
Can't wait to try out that Nainggolan, Modric and Pogba.
Second go is even better:
I'm going to sell my team tomorrow and just keep playing this, doing SBCs and ripping packs.
Pirlo from ultimate scream so meh in the end.
I will however make more than enough back from the 8 fitness cards I got to break even before I sell anything else
I got Ziyech which is pretty shit.
Vardy was the best player in terms of coins I got.
oof.
The team is so good, but the chemistry makes my eyes burn.
Did Butland just now. I didn't realise I had a bunch of low rated untradeable golds left over from those league upgrade SBCs. I only have about 6-7 reds left now, with them all being 84+. The only player I needed to buy for this was Gray to link up with another Burnley player. I will however need to fork out for the actual SBC, but I'd sell De Gea(assuming Butland goes up to 85 or so) on to use him so it's not all bad.
They said a new FUTTIES SBC every Tues/Fri along with the winner too. So they next one should be up in half an hour. Might well have to wait til Tuesday for the winner SBC though. Unless they put that up later tonight.
Good lord.
That's what it looked like in game.
I made it a bit better by using Asensio and Benzema pre-match.
Current team is worse and with only 78 chemistry.
Edit: Also, woof.
Not too keen on the new Futtie nominees.
Bellarabi, Lucas and Sane? Meh.
Guess Sane will win.
Yeah zero fucks given to the RWs.
They also extended the time on those throwback SBCs that were loans. People are speculating this is to introduce permanent versions along side. I want to do Alonso as a Liverpool fan. I really really do.
I'm thinking about doing Lahm as I always loved the little man.
Another who doesn't give a shit about the RW here. I have Lloris in goal so won't bother with Butland.
I could actually do Lahm from stuff I have in the club if I wanted to
I'd like Bellarabi to win, since I could use another RF in that side, but there's no chance he actually gets the nod over Sane. Need to pick up a few more high rated players to be able to do the Butland SBC too.
Lahm has been upped to 99 stamina, which I thought was them learning their lesson. Then I see Alonso has 78 stamina. God damn it EA.
I was tempted by both actually, but now I've seen that Lahm is the only viable one.
And I used Sane a lot when I first got into this so I'd welcome an upgrade, albeit it probably won't be enough to make him usable.
All the cheaper end TOTS cards appear to be going extinct. Which is a shame as I quite fancy doing Lahm.
Part of me wants to flog my unwanted TOTS cards for some good money, but at the same time I know that if I do I'll end up needing them & they'll have gone extinct.
I've just noticed that Andre Silva, whose TOTS cards was regularly going over 100k not too long ago, is now capped at 85k max. Same for Semedo, actually
That's twice TOTS Semedo's cap's been changed then.
Pulled Bellerin Scream from MM. Could have been worse and I might use him.
De Gea has dropped 15k in price just today. I wonder why...
I've just played 5 games of the WL and won all of them. Kane has started to slow his goal tally down but Eriksen keeps going. Kane has 21 in 22 while Eriksen has 33 in 22. I sometimes even chuckle when he pops yet another one in. His shot is lazer guided with either foot.
This is bringing me to my next topic. 4 of those 5 opponents instantly paused and went in to make changes to formation/personel. I've been thinking about doing the same. It'd finally get Son on full chemistry(he's been on 7 chem for 190 games and he still seemed great). But it might allow me to bring in some players to try out.
I could get TOTS Salah in there pretty easily. I also wouldn't mind getting TOTS Keita into the side as an alternative, but he's a lot more tricky given his club/nationality.
Got Lahm.
Cost about 150k in TOTS and IFs and the rest I could do from the club.
Only played one game with him (with basic Chem) but he seems a beast.
With Kane on the bench of both teams.
Still a work in progress (particularly the left backs) but got just under 500k left, 90 Son on the trade pile and probably another 50k-100k of crap in the club, which is like a part time job sorting through it all.
TOTS Lewandowski seriously appeals.
I can't be arsed to change the picture, but Renato Sanches should be the standard gold card, not the OTW.
You need to create a TTH trading guide for FIFA 18. You've got better than me there and I've over a thousand games played.
How is TOTS Keita? I want to use him, but it'd mean a fair amount of jiggling about to pay that off and make it happen.
IF Leighton Baines and an IF version of Marcos Alonso are really the only decent options at left back (without murdering chemistry) it seems.
I struck a bit lucky with the El Rondo SBC coming back as I had about 200 players in the club that generated somewhere close to half a million coins as a result, and realistically I must have put £50-£100 into packs (if you add it all up), but the two things that have definitely made me shitloads since I got back into this are silver trading (which has zero risk) and the SBC's (I've done every single one down to Jumbo Premium Gold and most of the golds below that too), which are impossible not to make money from.
As for TOTS Keita, I love him. And at 154k was an absolute bargain.
