Added in Paulinho at 8 chem and from my one game against Yev I'd say I like what I see.
Key difference between our game from today and the other day is Hazard at CAM. He's so bloody good there. I did move my keeper in the last game we had. I seem to remember Alisson getting a hand to one he really should have saved.
I don't know if you noticed me slow down once through one on one, seeming to delay the shot? That's a result of others moving their keeper. You'll be surprised how many times people will move before I shoot and I just pop it in the other side.
Oh and Keane is amazing.
He's like a terrier for me, constantly breaking up attacks with tackles or interceptions.
7.9 match rating is his worst performance thus far for me. He's even been MOTM in some losses.
I'm hoping they up the ante again tonight. Hoping to see at least 1 crazy card and Crespo.
I'm pretty sure they will.
It'll still be the usual +1 upgrade on the UCL cards, but there might be some value if the card is a good enough one and the requirements not ludicrous.
No Crespo, but there is a De Bruyne.
There is Raul though...
I don't know exactly, but 5 In Forms and an 88 rated squad is surely going to make that De Bruyne card cost an absolute fucking fortune.

Someone has done the De Bruyne challenge for 480K on FUTBin. If it ends up settling at that price I think I would do it, that is a card you could use until the end of the game.
Early estimates on Futbin have De Bruyne at 500k ish.
I may have to do that De Bruyne though and sell UCL Pogba.
For anyone wanting to get Kondogbia, I saw a tweet from an EA person saying they were going to change his nationality (think he recently got capped by Central African Republic). His value might crash after that as long as you then have to link him with La Liga players.
Kroos is going through the roof and I have 5 on the trade pile still.
Also done De Bruyne. Got in quick with the cards needed on that 480k solution. Was too slow on Modric before he doubled in value, but had an untradeable UCL Rakitic who will do just the job with a couple of tweaks elsewhere.
Cheers for the heads up Yev. Just shifted Lewandowski and Modric for nearly 100k profit between them.
I made over 400k on those 10 Kroos cards I bought before Futmas. It's nuts.
I'll be going bd on the high rateds next year when they're that cheap.

I've just seen that Raul is 2m. What an absolute piss take.
I was going to do it until I saw that. I'd even have sold Neymar and Mbappe.
He does look a fantastic card, but bloody hell.
Mind you, once these Futmas cards have expired (and there's a flood of Fifa points tomorrow) the market should hit the floor unless EA have anything else planned for the holiday season.
That KDB is such a tempter. Him and Pogba flanking Keane sounds like the stuff of dreams. I will probably cave and do it,
I don't know whether to do Boateng or just clear my club of 84 rated+ players.
KdB is indeed tempting, but I think I’ll prefer to cash in on my 87+ players instead and re-buy them on Monday.
I’ve a fair few to sell. Should hopefully make the money to bring in Kondogbia off the back of it.
Beware the forthcoming nationality switch there Merse.
If I sell Neymar and Mbappe I'll have about 1.5m. Unsure what to do here lads. Mahrez could take over at RW. He's fantastic on the ball, but isn't lightning in behind.
I could do KdB easily and have him at striker to get Mahrez chemistry. I'd then have about a million spare.
Alternatives are the Sterling SBC, or chipping away at Raul or more in my price range, Ballack. Either of those Icons would be a mainstay in the team probably til the end of game.
Surely the position change would only alter new cards? If they alter existing cards it will ruin so many teams.
I am doing KBD. I have put so many coins into untradeables over the last few weeks.
So I did the Roy Keane SBC a couple of days ago and the best pull from the packs was 84 Ruffier. I sold everyone apart from the 12 players from the silver pack (which I left unopened as I couldn't be arsed with it) and reckon in total I made about 80K.
I opened the silver pack this evening and sold the entire contents for 24K. Including this guy who went for 11,000 - https://www.futbin.com/19/player/285...20ter%20Avest/
Crazy to think the silver pack gave me the highest return.
Any of you regular weekend leaguers, that Subosic card is free to do as long as you have some discard rare cards kicking about the club and your useless FUT Champs reds.
Ive sold lukaku who im now sick off. His first tocuh is awful and even though he has super strength, he didnt cant hold off anybody. Who should i get. Ive had a look at an icon and lineker and shearer look the mould but im not sure?
If you switch formations, I would highly recommend RTTF Sanchez (might even be useful on reduced chem). He's genuinely brilliant and is constantly out-performing Aguero for me.
Ive tried him. I didnt like him. Whoever i put as a ST, they just dont deliver. My play style does not suit this game at all. I want to play slow football to a target man but that tactic is defeated as everyone i play, the opponeents players always seems closer to all my players than mine are to theirs.
Its like game forces you to play quick one-two touches passes. I may have to out the game down, its just not fun for me and every game is work.
What the fuck is up with mahows pack luck???!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?
edit: It doesn't even let me capitalise throughout!
I need to vent
Fuck it, Bold will do

Did KDB with that but used IF Kolarov instead of Vecino who has shot up.
@Sir Andy Mahowry
Seriously though, are you pumpin' points or picking these up from Sbc and Rewards packs?
Last few days I pumped some points in and got super lucky.
My packs from SBCs and rewards has been terrible this year.
Fair. You deserve it then! I thought you were pulling those from MM's (still wouldn't really be resentful, at least not after the initial rage).
What are you planning - use or sell?
Also, TIF Lala is expected that'd be me set for full backs for the rest of the game.
I've bought prime Desailly and RTTF Telles to replace RTTF Nacho and NIF Marcelo.
Also thinking about buying Crespo now rather than waiting for his SBC.
You fucking what Mahow
I'm more annoyed by that SBC solution you listed. I have 4 of the 5 informs there as red cards but can't use them because it wont register.
Congrats on the pack luck Mahow. Top packing.
I'd be tempted to keep Ronaldo if I pulled him.
Shame I only have shitty OTW ready for Jan.
I try not to get suckered into too many untradeables because you almost get forced into playing them.
Bought the standard KDB to try out before a potential purchase of his FUTMAS card. 10 games, 11 goals, 8 assists. Kicking the ball he is sublime, whether it be passing or shooting. However I noted 2 things when using him. 1 he is a little bit slow and sluggish which really hurt in situations where I need to be nimble, but 2, Hazard who was playing LAM only scored 2 goals in the 10 games KDB played. He's a goal a game himself when he plays CAM.
I just don't know if to do him or not. Keep flittering between deciding yes or no.
I have about 650k to hand with 100k or so hitting the club on Thursday. I'm willing to sell Neymar and Mbappe who are 900k or so about now, as I have Mahrez I'd happily use and can bring Aubameyang back into the team.
Fucking agent at it again.
Im now using gold aguero as my lone ST on a false 9 with a catylyst and within just a few games, He seems so effective. Those small, agile players eho are good on the ball just feel so much better. I still want to play a target man but you man are right, agility and balance is critical to it.
