I still think there's a chance that they bump his TOTY up when TOTS finally drops.

Have they ever done that before?
Although the date suggests that was due to ratings refresh.
I think his TOTS card will be exactly the same as this POTY card anyway. Same for Sterling. It would seem daft to keep a TOTY card below that rating, but then having 3 cards at 96 makes little sense.
I'm totally addicted to this SBC grind. I've nearly gone through the big 4 leagues again since Saturday.
The pack weight is disgusting, but it's almost impossible not to make coins from it when you factor in the big rated reward cards at the end of each league.
If you don't have many coins/loads of time/love a grind then bronze pack method.
You can then make bronze upgrades using off-league non rares, you can then put the rare bronze off leagues in the Icon SBCs, you can use the league SBC bronzes (CSL, Saudi, J-League and A-League mainly) to build those SBCs. You can then use the off league silvers you got from the other packs etc etc.
The most efficient (for time) method though is just going and buying the players ofc.
I ended up 2 tokens short (1 objective missed, and once I realised I could get what I wanted, I sacked off the last SBC) for the icon. I went for FUT Birthday Meunier and 87 Werner instead. I've also been sort of working on the league SBCs, for the Bundesliga in particular. Just Nürnberg to finish off but that'll cost 20-30k. I'm not sure whether to take the LM Gnabry or the CDM Delaney once I finish it off.
Ended up having my best ever Weekend League too. I was struggling at 8-9 on Saturday, but dragged it back and went on a good run to get to 17-10. Unfortunately I lost game 28 to prevent me from pushing for Gold 1 but it was a top weekend nevertheless. Eusebio scored 19 goals in the last 7 games alone.
Oh, and 86 Wass is amazing.
I'm still refining it Sincere, but Mahow has it broadly on the money.
The leagues that offer the best value are definitely the big 4 and BPM into the silver player upgrade packs definitely helps with some of the shitters. China, Saudi Arabia and to a lesser extent Japan are good for bronzes.
The French league is a bit moody and I've absolutely no idea what you need to do to pack the players to complete Liga Nos outside the big three teams.
I'm just heading out for a run, but I'll be streaming from 10:30 ish if you fancy a peak. It might be a tad dull though.
Ill have a look if you on. Flashback David Luiz causes so many issues for me. As soon as he is within 4 steps of you, he just sprints out at you and gets the card. I don't understand what it is about his card. It is mad. Its 8 months into FIFA and I still don't understand how my opponents can jockey my every move and follow everything I do and stick a foot in. I just can't do it.
Sorry for the delay, on now Sincere.

Packed Pique from an Icon Silver SBC Gold Players pack after you tapped out Sincere.
And one of the Huesca centre-backs to go with their striker I got last night.
And Phil Foden from one of the French league packs and Carvajal and Ibrahimovic from a Rare Mixed Players Pack.

Like I said last night, it's strangely enjoyable, grinding through the packs. I'm free to stick on a show or a stream in the background and while away time without getting annoyed at the game.
Packed 2 silver Genoa defenders in the first 7 bronze upgrade packs too - both would sell for 10k apiece so not a bad start.
I'd be finishing off the major 5 leagues again tonight probably were it not for the teams still left in the Champions League and the SBC potential from that.
I’m enjoying it as a mobile game whilst on my commute, or watching telly, hanging around etc.
It’s definitely profitable if you concentrate on club value. I finished Vieira last night with 850k in the bank. I’ve dropped 30k since then, but have added tradeable Alderweirald, Pique and 2 x Wiesel along with a whole bunch of 83-84 duplicates, more players for the grind and stepped about 20 teams closer to the various SBC reward players and never dropping below 2200 ‘on league’ players in the club at a time.
One last attempt at serious WL and if I can't finish elite 3 with Big Virgil, I officially give up
I notice that chap who died on the Turkish bus was going for 10k (base and transfer card) but EA have fixed it.
I really don't understand why people go mental and buy the player for max BIN when he dies.
Its depressing really.
Also, the new SBC. ffs.
Thats exactly it.
That SBC.
Just need to sort the bronzes on my trade pile (got about 60 duplicates) and no one wants to watch that, grab some food then I'll be back on stream. 30 mins to an hour.
UEFA MM's have turned up. At 8 I'm guessing... https://www.futbin.com/squad-buildin...lenges/ALL/663
I might just cash in as I'm not sure they're worth it for the price they'll inevitably be.
For some reason I don't have any UCL players.
Not sure if I should buy some in the hopes of pulling something big or just sell my players from the 4 teams.
Strangely players from said teams are not going for as much as I expected.
Every fucker probably has them.
Or it might be due to the odd time the SBC was released.
I opened my first two silver players pack today, and immediately got a Huesca keeper, who sells for 15k. Not to mention a 74 Strasbourg silver (3.5k). These have paid off already.
They are great, I will keep going until I a) pack an icon from the SBC and b) get enough silvers to do the Dutch league.
Huesca CDM.
People really can't be fucked doing auctions I've realised.
Since doing BPM I've been using BINs to try and move things quickly. I've had a Japanese bronze (who I bought for 650) listed at 700/2400 for 2 days, I just changed it to 850/2300 and he was snapped up instantly.
Someone could have had a bargain quite a few times over the last 2 days but they just couldn't be bothered.
It's a great way to cut the cost of this too.
Whack a load of bids on and then move onto the next team and come back.
Tbh, I'm also seriously lazy too.
I got lucky with this guy as I was planning on using him (tested via concepts) then realised he was 2.4k. Started looking for another RM using low BINs and found him there for 650.
I attempted to do the Yevrah method yersterday and it is too much work for me at this point of the game. I cant find a reason to do it as I cant do the best version of Vieira via SBC as its not available. I just dont have the energy for it.
At the start of FIFA 20, Ive already made up my mind to spend about £500 on FIFA points during week 1 of the game.
Well that escalated quickly.
My current plan for '20 is to ban myself from non-icon SBCs, save POTM. Try and have everything be tradeable. I'm toying with doing pack pulled only, until TOTY, but that could get quite limiting. Say I manage several good players but never get a 'keeper for example.
Either way seeing Yev tick it along nicely til TOTY then just casually buy Mbappe makes me want that.
You do have to do it from Premium Gold Packs though, which are absolutely tragic.
But £500 would get you over 500 of them.
Not at the start of the game. Only Gold Packs and Premium Gold Packs are available.
Yeah, the bigger packs are far too valuable at that point for them to be in the store.
Yep, IIRC it's at least a fortnight before even Jumbo Gold Premiums show up.
Where are Futswaps?
Looks like the cards are in concepts so should be out soon. Though no one is really sure
Edit: Delayed until tomorrow

That holiday cover lad is in charge of the SBC's again then.
Did MM due to the UCL upgrade SBC:
Pack 1: Dalbert
Pack 2: Herrera & Corchia
Pack 3: Thiago Silva, Matip & Santon.
Silva is going for 60k, Herrera 7k and Matip 3k.
The other 3 are shit.
I caved and did them last night. 82 and 83 Roma players were the best. I never get anything actually good from these UCL Marquee matchups. Dembele remains my best UCL pull and I got him on day 1 from the expensive version add ons.
