    I'm not selling those that I bought, I'll wait until they're relevant.

    Will be able to make at least 30k on Courtois though.

    For those wanting a bit more help defensively in squad battles (it doesn't work online), you can turn the defending in settings from tactical to legacy.

    Legacy puts it back to what it was last year.

    I just won 4-0 on legendary with absolute ease.

    Traded this today. Had my fun with it but I haven't played an actual match in about a week and had no desire to, and was just dicking about on the transfer market. FM soon, too.

    Was slipping into full on market addiction, getting those "just another £50 mate and you'll make millions" thoughts so slapped meself out of it and dumped it. I'm a weak, weak man.

    Estudiantes.

    Not in UT though.

    This suggests that he is in the rest of the game though.

    But for what? They don't do Player of the Month for other leagues and at best he'll get the Bundesliga SBC (Aubameyang is more likely this year) and that will need Bundesliga players.

    I'm up to just over 30k points in squad battles this week so should get Elite 3 at least.

    Stockpiling players is all well and good, but they're going for so much right now that for me it's worth cashing in if you do have players who're going for silly money.

    The league SBC's, for example, cost a ludicrous amount of coins to do right now.

    That’s why I’m stockpiling ESP1 and GER1 players - I’ll want those players. I’m also selling a lot too, but am up to around 900 now and have another 400 odd Bundesliga and La Liga players to go. Marquee Matchups got me a lot of IFs and walkouts last year too so I need to be prepared for them. This weeks cost me just 10k as I had everything except an extra Melbourne player, I made the 10k back selling duplicates and consumables and pulled some good players which if sold would net another 60k but again, I’ll hold on. Worked well with the Liga Nos silvers I kept - only 5 or 6 but made me 20k.

    Squad battles

    Im currently playing on professional difficulty in Gold 3. Is there a cap on how high i can rank up or do i have to increase the difficulty in order to get to the elite levels?

    You can hit Elite 3 on Professional but you need to play every single game (you can't miss a squad update) and, more than likely, win them 5-0.

    I play about 80-90% of my games on professional. I make sure to do all the shit teams on legendary (those with like 76 rating and 70 chem or something) as they're piss easy.

    Weekend league started badly with me at 5-9 after the first session last night, recovering to 8-10 by the this morning and then a 16-17 with 7 games to go. The upward trend as I got back up to speed left me confident of hitting the minimum target of 18 wins for Gold 3 and automatic qualification to next weekend, but a 5 game losing streak has potentially killed that. I’ve been playing pissed off after a couple of penalty losses and being ahead in almost all of the games I’ve played today, wth losses coming after 2 and 3 goal leads were surrendered to all our attack onslaughts. Given I’ve only played two seasons and a single DKT this year I should be less disheartened, particularly as I’m surrendering about 3 or 4 on team rating to my opposition too but I really can’t hekp but feel bereft at the thought of finishing Silver 1 as the rewards just don’t stack up to almost 20 hours of FIFA in 2 days.

    I had no idea that Lukaku had that many assists until I just checked.

    LF: Martial (66 apps, 73 goals, 28 assists)
    ST: OTW Lukaku (66 apps, 74 goals, 43 assists).

    Really tried to get my full backs more involved and they have, especially Walker who has a mean cross on him.

    Was also a race between Bakayoko and Smalling to see who would be the last to score in the outfield. 'Mike' won/lost and was the last which he managed today in my last run of squad battles.

    I'm starting to find legendary easier than World Class and, at times, professional.

    I got caned on World Class but I won three on legendary in my last 2 squad updates 5-0, 5-1 (I went 5-0 up before half time) and 2-1.

    With professional I find myself desperate to win the ball back right away because I'm better which leaves loads of openings in the back and I always seem to get superkeepered. I won 4-1 in my last match but Karius made about 6 world class saves, then I conceded. Luckily I got one back right after (It was the 70th minute or something) and then they went more attacking so I had more space.

    Is that legacy defending trick still working?

    Think it's gold 1 for me this week. Missed too many games to land Elite 3 playing on professional difficulty.

    Yeh, I’m a bit peeved with so many games being at the weekend. There’s no way I can commit to both FUT Champs and the sb’s, so I’ll likely settle for SILVER 1/Gold 3 this week.

    Played and one another game I FUT Champs so just need to win my last game to get Gold 3. So that’ll be Silver 1 then.

    Jesus. Everyone has better squads than me. I need to sell up a bunch of cards, but don’t see hoarding as the reason - I’m just not hitting any big names in my packs for an instant financial reward.

    In Serie A, I like the look of Belotti.

    https://www.futbin.com/18/player/314...m=10&schem=100

    Looks like a nice all rounder with 5* WF.

    Wener in the Bundesliga possibly:

    I’m just going to have to ignore Serie A until I can afford Dybala/Mertens. I’m absolutely useless without 4* skills n shit load of agility.

    Ive played with wanger. He is good as a target man with his back to goal. He is real slow though. Decent strength abd awful in the air.

    I have gone park the bus/counter attacking and i'm not as shit anymore. I'm not proud but it's working. I'm using a cheap Russian league side, and have saved 120k. Any ideas for squads I could put together with that?

    Werner is phenomenal. Grabry and Bruma are nice strong links out wide, Poulsen is massively OP alongside him as a false 9.
