Bollocks, I did the SBC last night. I'm going to be one short.
Seems like a lot of work just to get a 50k pack or whatever the reward at 10 players is.

Made my Serie A team last night and gave it a test in Div 4. Lost 4-1, 5-0 and then won 6-0 so god knows. The players in general being slower is taking getting used to.
It's the flip side of the EPL team. Everyone is tall and strong minus Mertens. Perisic isn't quite as strong as I'd hoped though. In any case I'll give it a try. The idea is to try and play 5 game chunks here and there.
If I make it beyond 10 wins I'll be happy.

First shapeshift. Looks like one stat stayed the same and one changed for a lot of them (so I presume all).
Blind is weekly obj. Currently has 90 pace and 91 pass.

Oh and fucking Fellaini now has 91 pace ffs
Shifted Laca for 298 this morning and he is already back down into the 270s. Bit more of a drop and I will probably get him back. Got greedy on Keane though and he never sold for the inflated price

Rio and Lamps
I desperately need a decent 83 / 84 SBC. I took the advice via Reddit and invested in a mountain of 83 / 84 players and they have all dropped in price since.
I can't open any packs because I have so many unassigned players and I am desperate to improve my team. If nothing comes out tomorrow I think I will have to take the hit and sell.
I'll have won FIFA if I could score the goal that Nepenthez does at 6 minutes 20 in this video:
What moves is he rocking there?
I'm also interested. I know the full dragback is RB, but the shimmys he does left and right look really useful.
5 games down in the WL. 5 wins and only 2 goals conceded. I'd say in the first 4 games I was the better player, with the last game requiring the most skill. However after I went 2-1 up late in it, my opponent devolved his play into looking for space for finesse shots on the edge. That allowed me to read him relatively easily.
I've no misconceptions of myself going 30-0 here, but it's always fantastic to go 4-1 or better in your first 5 games. I'm still only looking to get into double figures. If I can make it into Gold anything that would be a dream first stab at this.
That goal/video is infuriating. I get distracted just listening to a podcast while I'm playing FIFA, never mind describing what I'm doing and talking about other things while recording myself.
Looks like a dragback and maybe la croqueta?
He did say la croqueta.
Ah I watched it with sound off. Settles that one

Forgot to renew weekend league. Played rivals and im on 9 game winning streak. I need someone to blame. Fuck you all
Blame whoever is getting married (that was you and this weekend right?)
Loads to do today:
Get 4 division rivals wins which will take me to Lalllana
Hit the 2,000 FUT Champions Qualification points
Marquee Matchups (look worth it for once)
Secure Elite 1 in Squad Battles
Bronze packs
Gut the club of shit
Go through all the bronzes and see where we are
A good wind could see me to 1.2m coins today,

What's that Merse?
I wasn't, no.
5 more games down and I've been knocked down to 7-3.
All but one was competitive with a blowout loss in there. I probably should be 8-2, which would look a whole lot healthier, but it has shown me things about my side.
Milinkovic-Savic has been pretty disappointing. He's sluggish both on and off the ball and I really need to have Matuidi or Nainggolan in there. He was being useful for his height, but in my last game I was 1-0 up and the other guy used a player controller corner. In trying to get over to his man he got stuck on another player and gave him a free header. He then switched to a 4-3-3(4) and suffocated the life out of me.
I can't afford Matuidi until Wednesday either, so for now it's either soldier on, or look at IF Pellegrini, IF Fabian or IF Vecino as a short term replacement.
20 games left and the aim is to try and win half of those.
16-12 in Champs this weekend after committing the cardinal sin of playing most of my games on Friday, against many an R9, but pleased with it so far. Will get the final win to make Gold 2 and ensure my player picks are choice of 4’s from my last three games tomorrow I’m sure.
I might try buying and running a ethernet cable and see it is improves any. I'm only 10 feet or so from my hub, but it does that slow down/speed up thing at least once per game.
Another 5 games, another 2-3 session. I really really should have gone 4-1. Now 9-6 in total.
Is there something which gives away where you are putting your penalty? I've missed my past 4. The last one hurt too. 2-0 down. Despite being better. Brought it back to 2-1 and then got a penalty with a red card. He saved it then kept the ball in the corner for 15 minutes.
Moved into Elite 1 for Squad Battles and have 4 games in hand still to play.
Won 2 division rivals games as well so halfway to Lallana and 1/6th of the way to Scream Blind.
I see the Futbin app still has the same problem as last year in that it tells you a player is on the market for xk and there are actually loads for 200 coins.
Since day 1, I’ve always found Friday a struggle, matching up against a lot of difficult opponents with big teams. I always assumed this was due to matchmaking being weighted on performance in the league itself and no one yet having put together much of a record, along with that I’d start early after/during my usual work from home day, and that would likely mean facing a lot of the other accomplished players who started early to get the full 40 games in.
Pitch notes (EA’s new method of communicating all the shit players want to know, and a massive step forward for community engagement amongst the hardcore - not that the ungrateful shits are much appeased) recently clarified matchmaking in Fut Champs, and it seems that I was right to some extent -
https://www.easports.com/fifa/news/2...weekend-league
TL;DR, it’s all based on form, and on Friday, no one has form outside of the allowed differential. So I could face Nepenthez or Faze Taz or AA9Skillz etc
Add to that I still think the real hardcore types dominate Friday Fifa and it becomes a real nightmare of a day. Saturday morning through to Sunday morning, by contrast, sees me tearing apart people.
Problem is, that’s the most difficult time for me to play due to social, Arsenal and gf commitments. Bah. Life.
It’s all based on Bins. Given a lot of players on open bid are listed at 10k max, it gets skewed. The easiest way to filter it out is to only look at High chance of selling. Med and Low normally mean they go on open bid.
It mainly cuts down time for me in focusing me on sale candidiates which I then check out in game, as opposed to being a real pricing guide.
I didn't realise they've got rid of monthly rewards for these weekly reds. I'm not sure I like it, but then I guess it takes the pressure off having to go every week.
Does mean I can stop when I reach a point of it not being possible to get the next reward set.
Up to 1.4m in the bank, with 250k of items to sell.
Need to figure out what the hell to do with the side.
Much better IMHO. It makes each W/E league more valuable. I’d normally get a couple of Gold 1 finishes and then not be able to play the other couple of weekend so end up with crappy silvers. This, along with being able to choose the player you want, is far far better.
Also nicer having a quicker turnaround.
I've been thinking about mine and Kante and Pogba are seriously appealing.
Got Futswap Lallana. The card looks very nice.
Only planned on playing 5 games, but got on a roll with some peace and quiet. I'm done at I believe 18-11. This has also pushed me up to Rank 1 in DR too. 65k coins if I stay there.
I'll have 2 player picks, a rare gold pack, 2 rare mega packs and 45k coins coming my way. There's potential of a Ronaldo TOTW item this week, as well as Mané, but in truth I'll be greatful for any player of use.
I will add that 30 games, combined with the non-monthly rewards, makes this so, so much better.
Aubameyang POTM potentially incoming. I would go all out for that.
