Unless they reelease two FUT SWAP cards over the next 28 hours. I will be short for Lallana which is annoying. We should have a schedule on when they are available.

By my calculations there's 1 still to come (as I've definitely used 13 of them), but I agree, they've handled it really poorly. The opportunities to earn them should be labelled as "Futswap Card x of 14" and there should at least be some idea of when they're coming.
The annoying thing is they've not announced them when they come out. Wasn't there a card that was only available as a daily in the first 24 hours?
There was. You had to win 3 division rivals games to get it as a daily objective reward. You have to at least be semi looking for them to find them some of them.
Ridiculous. So badly implemented but there is time and room for improvements. After reading the notes, we should have had 14 SWAPS during October. We haven't had that many and we are now in Novemember.
Servers down?
Went to claim my rewards and can't get on.
I was kicked off just after 6pm and haven't been able to get on since. Very annoying because I was hoping to get 3 wins tonight to qualify for the weekend league.
I've just got on and been able to collect my rewards.
First player pick was a choice of: Mancini(78), Zardes(79), Willian(86) and Hilton(82)
Second player pick was a choice of: Marquinhos(86), Sharp(78), Bellarabi(83) and Hilton(82)
Delighted to add Marquinhos and Willian to the club. I don't know quite where they'd fit into the team, but I'll have to figure that out. I've at least gained 2 super subs.
Nothing from the packs unfortunately, but plenty of fitness card goodness.
Weekend league is going to be delayed by 24 hours and extended 24 hours on the other side. Someone fucked something up big time on their end. All matchmaking has been disabled too.
Also along with the weekend league rewards they handed out kits from a bunch of the eSports teams. Some look quite tasty to be fair.

This weekend league shift is odd, but might work out for me. I’m at a wedding tomorrow in Brighton so won’t be back home until midday Sunday, so fitting in 8-10 hours over Sunday and Monday night should be do-able.
I would've been happy with just Pato to be fair. I kind of feel obliged to get them in the team now! I've been told by countless people how lucky a sod I am. Hell of a lot of reports of people with better packs than me getting a little bit shit on.
How is Douglas Costa? I've been planning on buying and using him as a RW on 8 Chem. He seems perfect right up until the 67 finishing.
This is the current team:
I have 160k on hand to improve it.
I'm torn between adding a big player or 2, or spreading it out. Alex Sandro would pretty much wipe out the whole budget, but would likely set my left back for a long time.
Nainggolan would be just over 60k if I sold Hamsik back on to fund it.
Elsewhere I'd like to improve the keeper to Handanovic and I'd consider moving Allan on and switching to the 4-3-3(4) in order to bring in a more physical presence up front. The RW spot is a tough one in Serie A, hence wanting to play Costa over there. Insigne is also an option.
Benatia also seems like a fair upgrade on Skriniar. Both have the same sprint speed, but Benatia is much stronger and better in the air.
No consideration for Koulibaly?
He has a high attacking workrate, so would leave a gaping hole in the defence now and then. He also seems to have lost 3 inches since FIFA 18?Beyond that they're very similar with their in-game stats.
So I've started trying to play my squad battles on Ultimate and can I just say it's really annoying how the game doesn't actually become harder it just forces your players to do dumber shit to compensate for the skill difference.
Edit: Maybe it's Legendary? Whichever is the one above WC.

Serie A and Japan League SBCs just dropped to a tonne of disappointment. Dzeko and Skriniar with tiny upgrades are the rewards for Serie A.
Fut swap for october is still live with an additinal 30 days. Wtf. Same rewards. Lallana is still available.
Edit: not days hour. It says 30 hours. Im 100% sure i saw days though..

It did say days for a little bit. They've given people an extra day to claim and use the last item that was there via SBC.
Giving it an extra day because of the server downtime. Makes sense.
A League and Serie A SBCs up. Makes me think we will see the “main” leagues very soon but the cards will be meh.
Did half of the Serie A SBC’s for the better packs using mainly players in the club. Pulled IF Sancho, IF Nani and David Silva amongst quite a few 83-84’s which I’m saving up for Black Friday and Futmas SBCs.
Few comments from me.
The rewards for the new League SBC are bilge, but I have quite a lot of players for both so I'm tempted to roll the dice and do them all and see what the packs bring.
I redeemed my entry for Fut Champs (which I wouldn't have done had I known I it wouldn't be available tonight), so I'll be making my debut tomorrow.
I still love Ousmane Dembele.

Hopefully the link works.
I put together a tab for each of the prem teams (I didnt grab all players, decided to keep it reasonable). I have highlighted the ones I will looking to buy. I think City and United are going to cost a bomb.
Alright, should be public now.
Cardiff could be a money maker. Only 4 golds in their squad.
Did you export that from Futbin or type it all up?
Either way, great job.
I ask about the exporting because I'd love it for La Liga too.
On the new League SBC's, a lot of the players I'm missing are silvers, so this might be a good time to recycle my bronze players into upgrade packs, selling any that I can get decent coin for.
I've got about 1,800 of the fuckers, so that'd be 300+ silvers and some decent wedge from sorting through and selling those I can.
Went on futwiz, searched for Prem and I had to go page by page coping to excel.
When you copy over you can click one image (player pics copy over) and press ctrl + a to select them all and delete. Then I unmerged, unwrapped and stuck a formula on end to get a team name on the end for easy sorting.
I've also just listed 7 De Rossi's for 2.2k each. I've had them on the trade pile since the early access so enough is enough.
When they sell I'll hit the 1.3m coins mark, but watch an SBC land tomorrow that whacks them up massively.
Hmmm.

If you can accommodate the switch into midfield, he's an absolute bargain, surely?
The other thing I'm looking at is the PotM Eden Hazard, partly because he's an end game card and partly because I'm due some pack luck and the packs are pretty decent. I've already done 1 of them as well.
Has anyone used him?
I looked at who I could swap him into midfield for. Obvious answer is Desailly, but the best budget choice seems to be Matuidi, which I doubt would work. Mind you, I am rocking Kehrer at the back at the moment.
As for Hazard, so many comments saying he's weak, so if I'm going to take a punt on a weaking it'd be Messi. Well, were it not for the Hazard SBC packs. Damn packs.
Right, we're going in.
We open with a 3-1 loss.
He completely bossed the first half, but I was still level until the 42nd minute when I won a free kick just inside my own half. My players pushed forward for me to take it leaving me exposed on the counter when he stole the ball. 0-1. Any free kick I get in no man's land is just getting booted straight out of play from here on in.
Second half comes and getting frustrated he starts with the sweaty pressing, which strangely gives me more space as he's not very good at it. I break and Guerrrero whips a ball across for Dembele to nod in. 1-1. I literally screamed yes and punched the air at that point.
Sadly he gets another with Jesus and with 15 minutes left I go all out attack for him to steal a third in the dying seconds.
Still, not an awful experience and 400 Division Rivals points in the bag.
Lost my second game but won my third! So nerve racking, but held on for a 2-1 win in extra time.
Fuck knows how people do this for a living.
1-2 and 1 win away from my first target.
I am 2-1 after 3 games. Losing on penalties in my 3rd game.
I am aiming for 11 wins and hoping for 14. As much as I enjoy FIFA and the rewards the weekend league brings I do find it taking over your weekends. I didn't really want to play last night but felt like I had to because I needed 175 points to qualify for this weekend league, took me 6 games.
1-3 now.
Really should have won the last game. Lucas denied in the final seconds of extra time with a wonder fingertip save when 1 on 1 from the 45 degree angle that one always scores from.
Went to penalties and well, what a complete shitfest that is. Is there a way I can practice them? Without the direction bar I have no clue what I'm doing.
It's absolutely exhausting me so far. I'm knackered from work anyway, but 4 games of this is has been so draining.
My ultimate target was to get to Silver 3 as I'd love the chance to get a Fut Champs card, but whether I'm good enough/will be able to play enough games to do so I'm not sure. The last guy was the worst opponent I've faced so far though, so things seem to be getting easier as my form bombs.
Oh and on Icon watch, another cheap but cracker is baby LB Maldini.
About 700k ish and looks a beast that you could also move into the centre.
Thats what a lot of people did early on last year with his LB. Many even started in him there on 7 chem.
