I can see why people do that, but for me it's a bit like only doing the lottery when it's a rollover. I'd take a Gold rare Ronaldo/a £3m lottery win any day of the week.

Marquinihos is in the TOTGS predictions. Somewhat tempted to pick up a couple of his PTG's
Annoyed I didn't do the Rigoni SBC as he looks nailed on.
In terms of who I am up for this week, IF Rooney, SIF Young and De Gea (any version) are all options if they appear. As for TOTGS, Ben Yedder will definitely be being purchased if he gets an 84+ card and Kimmich would take some turning down.
As for the next normal card target, Suarez is up next, but going to wait for his price for a clean card to drop a bit and try and shift some consumables etc in the meantime. I'm back up to 1800+ players again, so could also really do with Futbins player BIN valuation tool coming back.
Me too. I’ve got 2000 after buying a few bronze and silver player packs for coins to re-stock my oddity commodities.
Will be filling in gaps with a spare 10k after FUT Champs rewards land tomorrow too, making sure I have 2 players per championship and ‘other’ leagues (e.g. Argentina, Poland etc) clubs.
Same. Especially as with each special set of cards released, the normal and rare golds drop in value a little more.Quote:

Assuming this is right there is no Lingard but Young, De Gea and Rooney make it
Yeah, it's legit.
I'm going to need that Young and I might even upgrade my De Gea to his 1IF.
Was really hopeful of Lingard, if nothing more than for shits and giggles. That Young looks very good though.
Edit: Just dawned on me that Ozil is 89 like his scream card. Would figure it would have been 90 instead.
How did ozil even get in? He wasnt great in the man utd game.
The mid week game, they counted this TOTW.
Also why Young was in (for the 2 against Watford) but I'd have given it to Lingard.
Thinking of trying out the 4-2-3-1 narrow formation as I'm not liking the 4-3-1-2.
Would mean that I give up on Pogba as I feel that Hero Eriksen would work a hell of a lot better as the central CAM with Martial and IF Son taking the slightly wider CAM spots.
Is it me or is Eriksen just not that good in this game.
Depends on where and how you're playing with him.
If you're using him as a CM then he's completely wasted.

New No loss glitch apparently and Krasi was caught up in it. He was banned but seems to have been unbanned right now.
Also looks like Ovvy might be involved too as he wasn't coming close to the top 100 and now is going 40-0.
I've tried him for a few days now and testing has been good. Not much to say as every time he gets on the ball, he is clean through on goal and double tapping square with any player is an easy finish. There isn't any stat for it but i feel his touches per goal ratio is super high.Quote:

Just played 7 SB games with this (81 Young though):

Started well with 5 wins but then I lost the last two. It feels a little better than 4-3-2-1 defensively but there's something not quite right about with it when attacking as I really don't feel like it plays to my strengths. I was playing against HIGH fucking pressure teams though so 5 wins for me in those isn't too bad.
Think I might go back to 4-3-2-1 but that would mean selling Eriksen who is absolutely brilliant in the CAM role plus I also feel that Son is wasted when he's pushed too far out wide.
Apparently these icon images were found in game files, might mean nothing but it could mean that EA will be releasing them as icons sometime later in the season:

Giggs, Scholes and Ruud would be fucking ideal for me.
Whys there two of them?
They’ll have two versions of them @Baz
Young and old.
I've decided to sell Messi and replace with Suarez and Bale.
Messi up for sale, so let's see how we go.
Messi sold, for a loss of about 30k. Which is actually less than the tax.
Tempted by Pires as I could do him now and swap in for Martial, but Martial is ridiculously effective for me, so I may just need to trial the loan version.
Gortetzka will be upgraded to his IF for this weekend more than likely as I’ve got 310k sat idle. Tempted to save for Pogba too but Goretzkas price continues to sit very high as a real Meta player so I might as well buy him and sell to bring in Pogba when I have another 200k in the bank and Pogba deflates a bit.
Decided to sell Eriksen as I will be going back to 4321 (what a hero he is as a CAM though) and I'll also try to get an Icon in.
Salah should be nailed on for TOTGS upgrade so I'll sell his OTW when he's announced hopefully tomorrow.
Only played one game with Bale and Suarez. Instantly loved the former, but the latter felt really sluggish. Only 1 game and I normally need about 10 with a player to know for definite, but it's odd as I loved his SBC card in FIFA17. I've now whacked an Engine on him to see if that helps.
Lads. First clean sweep on legendary without changing the controller settings to legacy mode :cool:
https://s33.postimg.org/74byfbtsv/IMG_2400.jpg
Good stuff Sincere.
Decided to sell Suarez overnight as in the excitement yesterday I'd completely forgotten about TotGS and I'll definitely be getting an upgraded Ben Yedder if he gets one.
Bale is awesome. Much better than Messi, at least for squad battles gameplay anyway.
I havent played with messi yet, but given my play style. I think he would be pretty ineffective. As a forward, I need strong players before pace.
The problem with him is that his strength's already so low that when you factor in whatever wankery is applied to your players when you play squad battles on legendary, he becomes borderline unusable when he's in anything other than a decent amount of space. I thought an Architect card might fix it, but it didn't.
An 84 Ben Yedder is appearing in all of the TotGS predictions. :drool:
I binned Suarez off pretty quickly, but him aside (it was too early to judge) Ben Yedder's normal card is better than any other striker's I've used.
235 games, 223 goals and 207 assists.
No Salah ffs.
POTM thoughQuote:

Just got a proper look at it. That Ben Yedder will be awesome.
No idea how much he'll cost, but if I can afford him that Ronaldo will be sorely tempting too.
Doesn't help the OTW card though.Quote:

I've got his 86 card which I like, but doubt there'll be enough of an upgrade in the 87 one to make it worthwhile for me.
Ive 32 packs saved, not including todays challenges to open. Chances of getting anyone decent is slim but ill wait and see.
Nothing but an IF Beto from the packs I had saved up.
I got Hazard.
Unfortunately it was only his shit brother.
Awful packs.
Has anyone ever won a penalty shootout? I think my convertion rate is like 33% in shootouts.
I got two higuans. Given my luck, ill take that.
Bought Pogba for 532k :eyemouth:
https://i.imgur.com/sefXTO4.png
Just played two quick legendary squad battle games and Pogba is brilliant. I've been changing my mind in the last few days about if I should bring him in or someone else (was going to bring in 85 Blanc had Salah been in the TOTGS) and I'm so glad that I bit the bullet.
He's pretty much perfect for my style and exactly what my team needed. His defensive stats look shit but his pace (hunter card), strength and height make up for it. He's effectively a brick wall but he provides so much going forward. He only had 2 assists in the 2 matches but he created another 3 or 4 that I should have finished. 91 stamina too so he'll just keep on going.
I really hope that some of my OTW/PTG investments (looking at you Salah, James, Walker, Douglas and Sane) get some IFs quickly as I'd really like to get that 85 Blanc in there in place of Bakayoko.
Edit: Oh and Son is on 7 (loyalty and manager) and he's still fucking lethal. I'd say more so in this formation as I've been cutting in a lot more with him and Martial.
Opening several bronze and silver packs. Managed to gather 4 players between Ipswich and middlesbrough which was nice. I already had one at my club From the packs, i got an IF mahrez and sold the other two championship players for 8k. Nice.
Anyone having a go at the 125k pack? I am thinking of buying one
SIF Kimmich price is down under 80k for the first time in about a month.
IF Gnabry has his price plummeting too.
Also, Sincere Lewa is well under 200k now for his normal card. I bought him early this week for 210K :face:
Yeah, I bought two earlier. The first was unbelievably bad, but the second had Griezmann in it.Quote:

Ended up fucking about and missing them. I had all my coins out on bids any by the time I remembered to check they were gone.
They're back again now.
Which is very tempting with coins.
I have 12k coins. Not enough for him. Although i want hia IF version. Other Wanted players are nice and cheap now i seeQuote:
