If I could get Depay or Gnabry for free I'd love it, but meh.
Sanches will go to 84, then 86 if Bayern go through again. That's one hell of an upgrade for what you're buying now.

He says they're in a special discord channel but i think he adds you in manually so you may have to wait for the morning.
Ive been testing my theory on pressing and it is too strong. It is super effective on getting your players once they lose the ball to be touch tight to the player receiving it. It also helps you tackle as your defender will just auto still sprint to the ball and somewhat auto-tackle. The difference between playing the team press and not is huge.
It really is annoying to play against. Down and right on the d-pad. I have no choice but to play it as I have no other way to combat it. Nerfing the stamina will not be enough as it is a tactic that can be turned on and off. It needs to be toned down. If the long ball was effective, it could counter it but the long ball does not work either.
Expected, but this is quite scummy from EA:

They do that every year and through the promos. It’s clear as day and they are scum.
Ive got every player from the Japan league as I thought the price would have been an Iniesta or Torres but the 84 Podolski and 84 Jo, just isnt bringing hype to the card. I suspect they have other plans for Iniesta and Torres. Probably flashbacks. A cool idea would be flashforwards thinking about it. Imagine getting a flashfoward card of his youngster who is scouted as the next big thing under the same idea as a flashback
Schalke and Porto players going for 4-5k. I’ve got 16 so I’ve comfortably got enough for the SBC and 50k income
Fortunately I’ve been using the Imaduckquack methods (big league players and 82-84’s at discard prices) since he was a fledgling in the reddit boards doing the MM predictions, off my own back as from a couple of months into 17 it was clear it was the way to go. There’s always value in a player eventually.

Packed a duplicate IF Olsen from the MMs. Not much else exciting, but a Parma GK worth 3k and the other duplicates worth 1.5k means I’ve not regretted trading in the other 4 schalke players I would otherwise have sold for 16k. Decent night of profit.
Some of these RTTF Prices have exploded
Sanchez and Kimpembe up over 200k right now. Lingard and Telles are up 50 from when I bought them too. Even Renato Sanches is up this week.
Did a CL upgrade back for shits and Giggles and got Fabinho. Time to sell mine.
I have 11 FUTSWAPS and zero urge to actually play the game right now.

I've done so fucking many and IIRC my best was a Lucas Vazquez.
I was going to do more recycling the shit ones but they don't count as a rare, despite being RARE CL PLAYERS.
Anyone ever sold their coins? I found a website willing to pay almost $250 for 3m coins. According to FUTBIN my squad and tradepile are worth about 4m
I think the general idea is to be ready to be banned. So sell up everything so you can create a new account if needs be.
Oh yeah without a doubt. I probably won’t do it. Was just shocked by how much!

Do the Desailly one
Played my first game with the squad I posted and Sterling was brilliant. Hattrick on his debut and he was just a nuisance to the opponent all game.
5-2 win in division 5.
Bought a clean UCL Fred to replace Fernandinho.
Anyone used him? He looks amazing with engine on him.
Only ever used the normal Fred but he seems a kind of budget beast.
Going to hop on and hopefully play 3 or 4 games to get me into Rank 3. Not a lot of playtime since Friday so Gold 3 and Rank 3 rewards are welcome. Should add about 100k into the club.
Not holding out any hope for the red picks this week. 2 lots of 1 x 3. Just looking for a supersub really.
After moving to Div 3, every game thus far has featured Ronaldo on the other team. I don't think I've ever seen him miss the target either.
Just played another crazy game that ended 5-4 in my favour. I went 4-3 up in the 88th minute too. I also hate what they have done with stamina. From about the 70th minute, both sides are dead on their feet. It does however make substitutions more effective.
It's also a little easier to slip a through ball in now. It being auto-cut out has been toned down a little, however I've got so ingrained into not playing the pass for that very reason it'll take me a while to get used to it.
Had 0 points tonight but I decided to play a handful of games and I'm at rank 3 (with 4190 points) and should stay there.
Really liking the team bar Arnautovic who I'm just not sure about. Kroos has been firing in goals today and Anderson and Sterling are a constant threat.
I was shafted by Flashback Sturridge in my last match and it's a shame his SBC is done now as he'd have fit in nicely.
Might try IF Kane or UCL Firmino next I think.
I played about 5 games last night with the new patch and it now appears you are rewarded for my defending style which is trying to cut passing lanes. I didn't win every game, but the games that I lost. I didnt feel like I was out the gaem from minute 1 becuase of the high press and clossing down. It maybe early, but I liked it. Im still in division 5. I havent been releagted or promoted from it yet.
What’s the timeline for potm? If it’s Sterling then surely his if will be needed?
It'll be what, an 88, 89 rated card? Without the IF I can't see how they'll make it pricey enough.
He has three 86 special cards right now. I dont think it will be an 89 rated card. Thats a mega jump. He does have lots of special cards floating around though so one may be needed. Ive just bought 8 special Sterlings for 90k. Should go over 100k once POTM day arrives.
Took the untradeables and best I got was Banega, ugh.
Take the coins
I took tradeable and the best I got was Spurs Dembele. Also pack addict.
FUTBIN listing Robertson at his new max bin (190k)
Kimpembe up 70k since I packed him
Sanchez up 80k.
This market is insane. Not sure if I should sell those two before any hype dies down on these cards
All desirable cards have sky rocketed. Glad I bought my team in the week before Black Friday.
Took tradeable Rivals rewards and got sod all.
Then opened my red players and got Mooy and a Santi Mina. Nothing amazing there, but then I moved onto my packs and:
G fucking G.
Fuck.
Using him or selling him?
2.2m coins as a min BIN. Might go to 2.3 or a little more if I don't use him.
Using him would mean re-doing my team entirely. However I know how good he is.
I have seen people drop him back into CM and hyperlink to Cancelo. Then they go for the in game switch.
Oof. Know the feeling as I packed him early doors in 17 and I struggled to contain my inner KSI.
Good time to do it too if you’re going to sell. He’s still valuable enough but you’re not paying such a heavy premium for players. I spunked mine away building teams on vastly inflated month 1 prices in 17 and regretted it a little as their relative values dropped like stones
Alexander-Arnold from the MMs.
Pogba’s now nearly 100k more than he was before Black Friday. Mental note to self to remember that the crash on the bigger players is before Black Friday.
Still sat on 1.6m with a shitload of investments and untradeables
Also added IF Sane and Mahrez to the first team over Black Friday.
I’m loathe to spend it when prices are this high, so could really do with a baby icon sbc or a set of icons that don’t require one to do.

It’s just the trend of the last two years. The traders just regurgitate an edited version of everything on reddit where there are guys doing a pile of free work. Just as Imaduckquack was until recently going premium.
Apparently the next icon set is incoming, so I’ll wait for that.
Not sure whether I can be arsed with weekend league this week too.
Only just calming down after buzzing my tits off with that pull. I've not yet touched the big man, but there's 3 choices for me.
1. Plug him into the team in the manner Danny suggests, with me probably having to move to 4-1-2-1-2 in game to keep Aubameyang going.
2. Sell, then turn that into close to the best premier league team money can buy and keep some savings
3. Sell, then go mental and move my current team to be my B team, get in the likes of The Brazilian Cunt and Mbappe, or get a full La Liga side with Messi, Bale Griezmann and Co.
What did you do with your 2m @Yevrah ?
Hope its not the same guy calling it as last time
I have about 1.8m of investments, 400k in coins and according to FUTBIN 2.3M in players.
These RTTF's
Toggle Spoiler
I was just looking at what I have via the club in game and I reckon if I sold everything I’d have 3.5m+ coins, maybe pushing 4m.
It’s quite tempting. The side I could build with that.
Or I could buy 1,000 William Carvalho’s and hold him until the next TOTW sbc.
Sell up, spunk the coins on a MEGA player and put budget guys around him.
It's quite fun.
