Trent POTM. Pretty much the same card as his TOTGS.

No SBC up yet, its coming 17th Dec for some reason but the TOTGS is like 70k.

Absolutely smashed the shit out of the new league SBC's last night and 300 packs have been hit:

Overriding thought at this stage is how much I wish I'd done Fekir to save myself half a million on Ben Yedder. Hate the cunt. First half of my games done, enjoyable enough. Alcohol wearing off and hangover kicking in, time for bed.

Game 1: 4-2 Loss (0-1)
Identitikit FIFA 20 4-2-3-1, Fekir, Benzema, Vieira; proper counter attacking cunt, zero ability or want to play with the ball, he won with 28% possession. Unbelievably frustrating.

Game 2.1: 1-1 draw, RQ from opponent (0-1)
Identikit 4-2-3-1, Fekir, Benzema, Inaki Williams, tried to play without the ball, scored a KO goal then quit after 30 mins of me having 9 shots on goal ended in an equaliser.

Game 2.2: RQ at 0-0 (0-1)

Game 2.3: 2-1 RQ win (1-1)
4-1-2-1 narrow; Icons, Fekir, Monteiro

Game 3: 4-1 RQ Win (2-1)
4-3-2-1 Robbie Keane, De Bruyne, Mahrez, Upamecano. Very unambitious player, but competent in defence, his de Bruyne barely passed the half way line. Scored brief equaliser from corner whilst conceding 73% of possession to me and 0.4 XG vs 5.2. Once I went 2-1, we came out of his shell and got eaten up for breakfast.

Game 4: 3-1 Win (3-1)
4-3-2-1 Benzema, Pele, Salah, Ginola; Loved this guy- he attacked and pressed from minute one like in the first month of the game. Posed a lot of questions, lacking in quality.

Game 5: 4-0 Loss (3-2)
4-2-2-2 Kante, Martins, Fekir, Benzema; Another frustrating one, that would go either way depending on the events of the first 30' rather than the blow out it reads as. His first two are off the back of one of those inexplicable EAids moments with my TAA miscontrolling, the second a massive deflection off a 30 yard hit and hope and the 3rd from a tackle of my player turning into an OG. I had 5.4 XG to his 1.2 and he didn't touch the ball in the second half, but this 4-2-2-2 meta is so hard to break down when the AMs are set to come back. He played well, and deserved it on balance in a FIFA sense, but fuck me, this is anti-football.

Game 6: 6-2 Loss (3-3)
4-4-2 Bundesliga, Haaland, Goretzka, Koller; It had to happen - totally outplayed in this one by a tight, pressing and expressive in attack player. Enjoyed it more than most of the wins so far. Lovely player, proper attacking football and a true FIFA scoreline.

Game 7: 3-0 RQ Win (4-3)
4-1-2-3 Premier League; Lukaku, Mane, Salah, de Bruyne, Kante; Came out swinging, not bad pressing in midfield but didn't manage a shot, awful in defence and it was done within 30 minutes.

Game 8: 4-1 Loss (4-4)
4-4-2 Mbappe, Icon Ronaldo, Roberto Carlos, Messi, Neymar; One of those games where you know it's going to be a bitch when you see the line up and a red Mbappe. Who spent most of the game in his own half. Proper FIFA player, highly efficient.


Game 9: 2-0 RQ Win (5-4)
4-2-1-3 Chiesa, R Ferdinand, Zidane, Osimmhen; Good player, good team, threatened plenty before I grabbed my goals and then he scythed me in on goal to get his Cancelo red carded and end the game as a contest.

Game 10: 7-3 RQ Win (6-4)
4-3-3 Mane, Ronaldo, Salah, de Bruyne,. PSG backline; felt tighter than 7-3. Super confident timed shooter, scored a couple of belters including with Shadow Onyeka from 35 yards.

I took Ice Tagliagifo and Fire Everton. Just realized with the SS we got two LB's this week for Eredivise.

I wont be touching Pulisic. Dont see him as enough of an upgrade over Gold Rashford/Sterling.

I missed the window last week but I really should have realized, and sold, Adidas MATS. Might wait for the first boost now before I do it.

This Is The Way (I think). There's not much difference on the Tagster and being more agile will make him feel nicer in-game. Everton's passing on the other card is bobbins and you can fix the shooting to about the same level with a Hawk or something

Second WL stint - this time commencing at 3:30 off the back of a 10 hour post-Emirates sesh. Fortunately this time I've already started my sobering up with a 2 hour stint in a casino.

Game 11 4-1 RQ Win (7-4)
4-3-3 Garrincha, Gattuso, Salah; much better player than the scoreline suggested who went one up early, but gambled hard after I equalised and was exploited.

Game 12 4-1 Loss (7-5)
5-3-2 Mane, Vieira, the Ajax Brazilian; more of a 7 at the back, 3 up top affair, but he outclassed me. Not at all fun.

Game 13 4-2 Loss (7-6)
4-3-1 J David, Claude-Muarice, Nkunku; closer than suggested, really good defender who was clinical.

Game 14 5-2 Win (8-6)
4-2-2-2 Benzema, Vinicius, Chiesa; Absolute bellend who was great at running directly with the stop-start-knock it on stuff that gave him back to back KO goals, but otherwise was total shite.

That'll do for the weekend as I'm off to Bristol tomorrow for another sesh, sans-Xbox. Time to give away some wins.

League SBC's are so good - I'm not even opening the 'good' packs either. Have sold 300k of consumables I accrued from them so far today too, so coins are back up to 400k and got another 100k ish of contracts to shift.

I hope they never change them.

Danny
12-12-2021, 06:02 PM

Base or Mid Icon Pack, Vieria and Keane are out (both Base). If you still need to shift the Oblaks, thought maybe not with consumables, next couple of days may be the time.


Edit: Its Mid Keane.

Danny
12-12-2021, 06:05 PM
Keane is probably like 160k. Vieira like 1m. Shows what EA think about them :lol:

Cheers Danny. Looks like he's hit 60k now, which would be more than double my money.

If I hadn't packed Essien I'd have done Keane or Vieira. As it is, that brings me back into the room for Vini J.

Started to get a little bit of the itch for this for the first time. Funnily enough this is about the same week last year I caved, however I see the game is still full price. I'm sure I got it for £30 or £35 this time last year, so what gives?

League SBCs starting to pay out. First time I’ve ever packed Messi, though he’s untradeable.

Yevrah
13-12-2021, 10:33 AM
If you do enough of them they will, through sheer weight of numbers. I've now packed 4 promo cards (3 of which worth over 200k), but I must have opened about 500 crap packs from the league SBC's.

Raoul Duke
13-12-2021, 11:50 AM
I've not packed anything big from them yet but they've been ok for building up fodder. The key seems to be rinsing the ones you can do with what you have, use that to build up the required silver/bronze cards and then use coins to pick-up what you still need. Then hope that what you pack covers the cost of what you've spent. With enough repetition you'll hit something big + tradeable and be able to use that to get to pure profit.

Yevrah
13-12-2021, 12:10 PM
Yeah, I should add bar a few 86's and maybe a Toni Kroos, I haven't packed anything decent that was tradeable from them.

I think I'll just do 11 tokens to get the packs. No interest in Casillas as I have Cech and 18 tokens is going to require a Weekend League qualification, which I'm not going to bother trying for again until after TOTY.

Vini is class. Best player I've used so far by a country mile. The burst of pace he has when he goes on a dribble just leaves people for dead and that was with a Deadeye on him. Now moved to the Marksman to try that.

Nice Merse. Liked his card last year a lot.

I normally don't get annoyed at playing Squad Battles but they've nudged the difficulty up just a notch this year meaning playing it on WC is just the wrong side of frustrating when you're having to use these bollocks players. On the plus side, having a First Owner/Silver/Argentina squad reduced the number of games a fair bit.

Who's winning out of Vieira or Keane on PS btw?

Danny

Keane. I picked Vieira.

Sow looks like a nice card.

Yevrah
18-12-2021, 09:17 PM
He does indeed. Wish even more I'd done Sule now and bought an Mbabu.

Back on to get Elite 3 SB and with it some more icon swaps tokens, push for 500 TOTY packs and open all the shit ones I have.

Horrific start to the weekend - 1-4 from my first five, but have steadied the ship to end the night 10-5. 2 wins tomorrow from the remaining 5 and we're all good.

Baffling, and annoying number of people quitting at 0-0, one going to so far to actively stop me scoring before doing so, no one giving away wins - has something changed in what streamers/reddit/et al are banging on about to discourage folks from doing the good thing?

I can't see myself playing for a fortnight or so after this weekend so will likely sell the saleable assets - Ben Yedder, Salah and TAA should go for a million, and buy back for less than that after FUTMAS.

I'd say it's Karma for going 8-1 in qualifying Merse but I suspect it's just a much higher proportion of awful sweats and far fewer casuals playing WL now.

Opened all the packs last night and packed Taraabt and some decent fodder, my trade pile is also now rammed with 83s.

Smashed through the 500 pack, 15m coins and £2k barriers on the packs too.

I got Taraabt in SB rewards this morning.

It might be a little late but I am thinking that Graham/other cheap WW cards are a good investment. I am thinking we will see an SBC with them required. That always spikes the price

I'll still be giving away my spare games, providing I have them.

Hoping for a seriously good Arsenal special cards and legends team to emerge soon - always been good on the Icons front, Ljungberg is back, and White/Gabriel/Ramsdale have IFs, with Saka and ESR onto SIFs and Martinelli likely to be next after his 2 goals whilst the rest of the league cancelled :happycry:

This Friendly Frost has to be the worst game mode I've played in FIFA all season. Slogging through it but every game is against a Div 2 standard player at least, usually playing like an absolute twat.

Danny
19-12-2021, 08:58 PM
Thank god the requirements arent too stupid on the card.

I did manage to get some of the next gen stuff done once I had my wins though.

That'll fucking do.

2 more wins in Fut Champs means I've ended on 12-5, with a run of 11 wins from 12 games to finish.

Waffdon
20-12-2021, 03:37 PM
I see they upgraded WL rewards to stop people stopping at 12 and/or giving out free wins. Probably fucks the decent players the most who tried to go for 8-12 wins. If you’re really good at the game it’s good and if you’re really bad it’s also good

Yevrah
20-12-2021, 03:43 PM
Are you still playing Waff?

Waffdon
20-12-2021, 04:28 PM
Nah, just like to watch. I do drafts to try build the best possible team but that’s about it.

Danny
20-12-2021, 04:57 PM
Rattled through all the online swaps last night. I have 7 of the 9 tokens now.

Thinking ill open the 81 x 25 to hopefully get some nice fodder for these SBC's and save atleast the 83+ for TOTY even if I'll get fuck all.

Yevrah
20-12-2021, 05:23 PM
Got 5 of the tokens so far myself. Got a couple of games left on the Messias objective, three rivals, Silver Stars and the Serie A League Player to finish then I'll crack on with the online ones.

Yevrah
20-12-2021, 06:04 PM
Bronzes are about to bang. :drool:

Danny
20-12-2021, 06:19 PM
Will probably do that Champ CB. Looks a little pricey but nuts pace/agility wise.

Edit: Prime pack is out. I got Sancho and Jorginho in the main pack and then Navas and Szczesny from the picks. 12 game Messi loan is nice to get when I have 1 Arg SB game left.

Yevrah

It doesn’t. It encourages folks to push on, but people like me that routinely hit 8-12 were only giving away a few games a week. Eg, this week I hit 12 then gave away three. Under the new system I’ll be incentivised to push for another couple, but I won’t, and I’ll still need to give some wins to get a point from each of the losses.

I like it. For me, most weeks, it’s one less red pick but an ultimate pack added to the mix, which is is of much greater value now TOTW is so dead outside of making fun teams.

Another Winter Wildcard token buried in milestones. Lasts for 13 days and need to score in 8 separate matches.

Danny
20-12-2021, 06:36 PM
Great shout I didnt see that.

From the current available content I will be doing Sow, Magloire and Davies. Imagine there will be more to come that tempts me.

Yevrah
20-12-2021, 06:43 PM
To be fair I might not bother with it. It's a minimum of 8 games, in fucking mystery ball, for one token (+ a mega pack). The mismatch between the ones in the menu vs. gameplay are unreal. I can spend seconds chucking some bronzes up an SBC to get a token or 2 hours playing mystery ball.

Yevrah
20-12-2021, 06:50 PM
WL qualification is now 10 games and you need to go 4-6.

EDIT: That might be bullshit.

Yevrah
20-12-2021, 07:09 PM
It's true fax. 1,250 points needed to qualify now too.

Ligue 1 player added, with crosses needed.

Pretty sure people are going to golden goal this. Based of reddit anyway.

Edit: Yeah I have had 4 GG wins already. When the one guy didnt leave I just left. Quicker this way.

20-12-2021, 10:43 PM
Went home for Christmas this past weekend, so no gameplay for me for over a week. How many tokens for this new promo are locked up in objectives?

Been on the web app a fair bit in the evening instead, working on the league SBCs and some of the Foundation ones I'd missed and I've had some decent luck. On Friday I got de Bruyne, Ice Pereyra and Luis Suarez in back-to-back packs, and today I've had IF Courtois, Lloris and the Wildcard Acheampong.

Danny
20-12-2021, 11:29 PM
2. One expires Friday (alongside that Messias) and one in milestones which I am not sure how long it there for.

That’s some nice luck. Tradables? Not that anything but the main meta is worth anything…

thommo
20-12-2021, 11:40 PM
De Bruyne and Suarez are tradeable, the rest aren't. But I think I will use KDB as I've never used him before and I'll try him in the Prem Icon Swaps games.

I packed a lot of 83-85 cards as well so I should be able to do the Sow card, who looks fairly obscene, and I think I would like to do Pandev just because I love his real life story with Macedonia.

Yevrah
20-12-2021, 11:47 PM
Milestone one is there for 2 weeks.

Danny
21-12-2021, 06:03 PM
Party Bag is out, needs an 83 with 2 X IF and comes with the pack and a token.

Aouar gets his usual card. Looks nice though.

Yevrah
21-12-2021, 06:05 PM
Putting a token in a party bag full of vomit is a low move.

Danny
21-12-2021, 06:08 PM
My Toko Ekambi agrees

Danny
21-12-2021, 06:12 PM
Opened an 81+ as theres some stuff I want to look at doing.

Lloris the main card. Followed by Mahrez, K Schmeichel, Walker, Henderson, Maguire and a sneaky WW David :drool:

Danny
21-12-2021, 08:36 PM
:drool: not sure how many IF's I have

1473347861152677892

not sure about any of those after Aouar. Only Etebo if its a silver as I love his card right now.

Yevrah
21-12-2021, 08:40 PM
Disappointing. I was hoping there'd be one coming that would bang the Oblaks.

Same. I have so much shit I need to sell

Yevrah
21-12-2021, 09:05 PM
OTW Ramos from my bag of vomit. Worth more than the pack I guess.

thommo
21-12-2021, 10:22 PM
Like you've said, a bit shit to stick a token in that Party Bag SBC, but the requirements weren't too shabby and I completed it comfortably mainly using unassigned fodder and some untradeable IFs.

OTW Correa, which I'm not too unhappy about. Loved that 86 RTTF he had last year and his stats look good.

Danny
22-12-2021, 06:09 PM
Token in silver stars.

Etebo is out, 86 rates and looks very cheap. Just kinda useless for me with untradeable Kante and KDB being my prem options.

Yevrah
22-12-2021, 06:38 PM
Rivals, Silver Stars and Mega Match Up to finish.

https://www.twitch.tv/chemicallocust

Might have to do that Etebo. Got loads of fodder on the tradepile after opening a fuck load of shit league SBC packs again last night, he's cheap and looks nuts, so why not.

Danny
22-12-2021, 06:51 PM
The cost is the only reason I would be tempted.

Jesus, what a beast.

How many tokens have there been? I've got 11, is that all of them so far?

Did you get a shit tonne of people with crap silver teams leaving after you'd scored first today?

The Merse
23-12-2021, 12:05 AM
Did Aouar the other night to rid myself of Dups mainly, knowing he'd be a good fit for me. I can't fit him in without someone dropping chem, got me thinking on a few other possibilities too, as I like the look of that David.

Could bring in:
Abedi Pele > 89 Salah, (LM) - shooting (with chem) and dribbling upgrade, physical downgrade and work-rate, WF upgrade
87 Traore > 89 TAA, (RB) - physical upgrade, small downgrade in attacking
86 David > 88 Banza (ST) - dribbling upgrade, small physical upgrade, WF upgrade
87 Auour > 86 Galeno (RM) - shooting and passing upgrade, dribbling downgrade, WF upgrade
89 Marquinhos > 88 Pique - pace, passing and small physical and defence upgrades, dribbling downgrade

Doesn't look like it's instant, so will play out my rivals wins tonight and tomorrow and then sell up my tradeables ahead of being offline for a week or so over Xmas, keeping these in mind for my return.

Danny
23-12-2021, 12:37 AM

The opposite today. Three sweaty games but two did leave. Normally people leave after 2 leaving me short of goals :lol:

Danny

Aouar has felt nice for me while doing next gen. Granted its SB but I do like the card so far.

Also quietly impressed with ice Claude Maurice. I might try him as a box to box (with an anchor on him)

Yeh just stuck him at CAM for a couple of games, dropping Banza to the bench to switch Ben Yedder up front, and he was very very good. For now, I've sold Ben Yedder and Salah, using 85 Saka and Aouar in their place and bringing Banza back in, in case I get the odd game in over the next few weeks - shouldn't be too much of a drop off.

His IF was filth to play against early on so I would be expecting good things.

Raoul Duke
23-12-2021, 10:54 AM
Been away for a week or so and have missed out on the playable WW promo stuff. I've picked up a few tokens and got Aouar in the club (who slots nicely into the team and can link up with Fekir).

How do I actually swap these tokens? Doesn't seem to be a place to exchange them anywhere

Yevrah
23-12-2021, 10:57 AM
Think the places to exchange them are coming on 26th December, which is odd as the genuinely awful Mystery Ball one doesn't expire for another week after that.

Danny

Dupe untradeable David from my first pack this morning. :moop:

Danny
23-12-2021, 04:19 PM
Some decent cards for the objectives this season.

Think I will keep them unclaimed for a while until we see how things go with Objectives/new foundations but my initial thinking is Nathan (MLS CB) and Browne (Champ CM)

The Merse
23-12-2021, 04:26 PM
Nice! Let me know how he is. I have him but haven’t used him yet.

His IF was filth to play against early on so I would be expecting good things.

Yeh I’m looking forward to him. Hard to fit him into the 4 league hybrid I have right now, but now I’ve sold Ben Yedder and Salah I’ll play around with the team in the new year and give him a go.

All depends what comes up in Futmas. I re-invested the 650k or so from sales into all the best value 85-91s in duplicate, so hopefully can make some money back whilst completing whatever looks tasty.

Up to 1900 players from the league SBC comps only in the club, aside from Some off league golds, so looking to whittle down all the untradeable masses SBCing over futmas before going back through the leagues again during TOTY. They’re undoable for me now as I just end up having to bin 88+ Duplicate untradeable players. The league SBCs are good this year for grinding, but only really if you’ve got active targets to push those players into, and only as SBC fuel and the odd promo player that makes your team rather than making coins back, as the packs that pay out are all untradeable.

Danny

Very nice. I've still not packed a single winter wildcard, having opened a tonne of shit league SBC packs, loads of bronze packs, a fuck load of silver and gold upgrades and the 81-89 pack from the tokens.

Back on, so maybe that will change. https://www.twitch.tv/chemicallocust

New party bag with a token and then a 'normal' SBC with a token.

I got WW Morales from level 14 season pack. He looks like he could be fun, if hard to get in my team (ahead of Benzema/Fekir).

My Party bag had Reyna in it.


Mid Best, Mid Puyol and Prime Zola SBCs are up.

Got Capa out the Party Bag. Pretty happy with that as I like his cards, even if he's not top tier

He looks reasonably priced. Not sure if I will do him having done Beckham.

Looks like todays TOTW will include 4 OTW upgrades (Lukaku, Dumfries, Hakimi and Kluivert)

Stuck between two options right now. Thinking option 1. Either way its looking nice. Pregame and in game below.

I'd probably go with the second as it's got better chem on the players who you'll feel more of a difference on (I think). Also, you're missing Henry at LB and a better keeper possibly too?

Danny
29-12-2021, 10:33 PM
Will have to compare Henry to Bryan. Bryan is there mostly for Deeney so is somewhat dispensable.

I do have Butland but I always stick the rare in. Even though I am 99% sure silvers dont count to the SB milestone.

Yevrah
29-12-2021, 10:35 PM
I'm pretty sure that's the case too Danny, can't seem to get them to count no matter what I do.

I picked up Teze earlier so my Eredivisie team is now pretty much complete. Will need to give them some games in Rivals

After 12 days away from the console I hopped back on last night to get the Silver Star done and start some work on Trippier. I’ve also done the Pandev and Orsolini SBCs, just for the hell of it really.

Helping my Serie A squad come together is WW Maignan who I packed in an untradeable 82+ player pack from a milestone of some description. I then packed a tradeable version in the next pack (Small Gold Players Pack) who immediately sold for 55k. :D

Pack luck seems to be in (I also packed a tradeable Oblak, Bruno and Kroos) and I’ve got a number of packs still saved up to go. Might get me towards an icon. I also need to decide what to do with the WW tokens…

I'm pretty sure that's the case too Danny, can't seem to get them to count no matter what I do.

I checked just now and I am still on 157. Meaning the 2 games I played with the silver team didnt count. So looks like Butland will be in. Maybe I can make some coin on this silver.

I do have Henry in the club too so may try out both and see what I like.

He looks disgusting with a shadow. I really should start rotating my teams in rivals but I always go with the 'main' (Ronaldo, Ginola, 90 Silva etc) to get through my 7 as quick as possible.

If you have 15 of them, the 85 x 10 for this promo (or headliners) might be banging for a fresher club.

Brought in a load from the current promo, as it includes some reason perennial faves for me in Ben Yedder, Aouar and Allessandrini and allowed me to fit in the freshly packed David.

Div Rivals - going after the 7 x first owned objective:
https://i.postimg.cc/4NPYY3PM/58-BDD10-C-BA43-499-F-AE07-EA3-F84337-D16.png

Weekend League:
https://i.postimg.cc/v8WgdhVG/59-D41-EC5-D6-E0-4290-9-BAE-B2101-A1-C6453.png

Both switching to 4-1-2-1-2 wide as usual. Aouar to RM, Allessandrini to LM.

David is brilliant, Allessandrini is an upgrade on Salah for sure, and Guendouzi is obscene for his price tag. He’s very much up there with Vieira and has given me an edge from midfield I was lacking a bit of late with Kante, through his ability to pick a pass and also physicality.

Raoul Duke
30-12-2021, 10:15 PM
Nice teams Merse. That Yedder/David 5* WF pairing must be filthy.

Aouar has been great for me, really like his card. Also really liking Sow/Davies/Upamecano as a back/left side

Yevrah
30-12-2021, 10:29 PM
Indeed, quality teams Merse.

Yeeting my entire club into 78+ picks, doing a couple of icons and maybe restocking the club afterwards.

Yedders busy body cuntiness at CAM is superb.

Having everyone except my centre backs and right back be 4 and 5* WFs is immense in general. Hoping to get a nicer right back at some point, but right now I’m very happy across the board.

Atal/Zambrotta FTW. I have SS Atal and he's pretty great - although his stamina is too low for an attacking fullback, so I have him on stay back when I play him.

I like the look of Attal, but stamina is a big deal for me - I overlap and use the full backs a lot, so I like them to be higher.

Cafu is the one that looks ideal. But I’m open to anyone that I can get in an SBC as the club is overly full of untradeable players I’m not using and need to get rid of.

New promo out.

- Kieta vs Kovacic showdown (former looks good to me, but I don't really need another Prem CM)
- Felipe Anderson Objective card (stamina kills the card a bit but he's decent)
- Reece James/Acuna with some more mega cards
- Nkunku gets another promo card :cab:

With on all of that. Ill be passing on the showdown, neither will displace Kante, KDB or Silva.

Nkunku is a funny one. He has to get into this promo as one of the better players. Rulebreakers is probably the only 'unearned' card at this point.

If it helps anyone I can confirm the Winter Wildcard players now count in the 200 Rare Battles objective. 32 to go for me.

Did Best and Puyol yesterday. The former feels pretty good (albeit you may as well just buy Messi) , while the latter feels genuinely disabled on the ball.

Got on for a bit after 2 o’clock and perhaps a bit much whiskey and ginger, 7-2 for the night, so easily on course for the 11 wins I’m after.

This team just sings - Allessandrini is ridiculous. You spot his runs a mile off and they’re fucking brilliant, well worth it if you can fit him in a wide position.

The Merse
01-01-2022, 06:23 AM
Got to the 11 wins I wanted in 14 games total before RQing from there as I need to be in the Emirates in 6 hours time.

Got the Saka I wanted from the red picks, along with Ward Prowse and Lafont. No biggy, it’s a shit week.

Fuck all from TOTW pack, Modric and Ndidi from the others. Bit of a shit week all around.

It doesn't make much sense, and I can't easily fit him into my team, but I think I need that Acuna card

He does look filthy. Didn't realise Alessandrini was H/L (cheers Merse), so I've just bought him. Making the team:

Hakimi and Aouar on the wings in a 3-5-2 in game. All first owned bar Romain and Hakimi. The latter from red picks this weekend please EA.

I was, just before Christmas, knowing I had this week off. I was hoping to see it down to £30 or so, as it was when I got '21 at the start of December last year.

Sadly it was still near full price. Not really had the itch since.
