R1+L1 headers are also the most effective.
Fuck whatever that is for the Xbox.

Tried LB crosses and find them absolutely useless too.
I was scoring headers for fun a couple of moths ago as well.
I can't say I've ever had much success crossing to be fair, corners non-withstanding. I'll maybe score 5 from crosses in a 30 game WL run.
I've just caught up on this new Icon Moment bollocks. I'm taking that as a slap in the face for every one they release that I've done the SBC of. Hearing those who are in a position where they aren't allowed to be critical of EA trying to justify this is quite annoying. This is nothing else but a pure money grab. Anyone who has done one of these Icons SBCs should get the upgrade on that card too. Whether for free, or a small fee and trading the old card in.
Cech looks a very good goalkeeper, but his nationality and club makes him hard to fit into something that isn't a pure EPL team. Howard is a nice touch and cheap, but again is hard to link.
Great for SBC's though.
Oh and I was opening bronze packs earlier for the Icon SBCs (I need to complete Nakata) and I pulled Nketiah who sold for 4.4k
For the Bronze squads in Icons, the Chinese league is very easy to link up and cheap.
For the Silvers, use the Norwegian league.
I’m trying to plan an upgrade to my team and can’t decide what to do. What would you guys recommend?
Get Headliner Rashford and eventually Foden, with the way Rashford is playing I guess he could be an end game 90+ card:
Get some of the better NIF cards, would be playing a 4222 with one of Neymar or Mbappe alongside Ibra.
Or finally do the Owen Prime SBC which would put all my players on 10 chem and get me some packs too.
What would you do?

Bronze packs are impossible not to make coin from at the moment, particularly with all of the Icon SBC's you can get silvers from. I've packed 2 La Liga players doing that who've sold for 10k+ each.Originally Posted by Sir Andy Mahowry

I'm one Spurs or Dortmund player away from being able to do those UEFA MM's.
Gutting.
So, my options are.
Spunk 58k of coins on packs in an effort to get my man
Do the Man Utd one and pray
Recycle over 1,000 bronzes into silver packs (should get me about 200 silver players) and then recycle some into gold players.
Decisions, decisions.
I do hope ratings refresh is included in this. I have a fair few players in the club that could make it in/out of my team based on them.
Winter OTWs make no sense to me. I know it is a promo they have done since introducing OTW players but there were no real major transfers this winter, and does anything really believe that these players are going to be receiving informs to make them worth using?
Prime Icon Moments is a load of bollocks too (in my opinion), so the only really interesting thing from this is a ratings refresh, which hasn't even been confirmed yet.
'Later in FUT19' isn't too promising given they haven't even released close to all of the current icons in the game. I imagine you'll need to submit team(s) on top of your current icon when it comes out also.
Existing icons are already out of reach for most people that don't spend coins/play the game excessively, this does feel like an unimaginative promo just for the 'whales' that are dropping hundreds or thousands on the game.
It's an awful, awful idea, but it now makes sense why none of the icons were ever 99 rated.
I've been thinking about it and I'm thinking this could a response to what we saw earlier in the year. By that I mean people being "too prepared" for Icons dropping. I still believe that's why we haven't seen any of the most desirable ones yet as well. By this point last FIFA we had all Icon SBCs available and they weren't time limited.
We'll get them soon, but I bet there about double the cost they were going to be. It wouldn't even surprise me if they dropped the Icon trade-in requirement and replaced them with something more expensive to stop us prepping that way.
I'll judge them based on the trade in they're going to offer on those upgraded that have already had Prime SBCs. If you're having to pay 100k and trade your card in, I suppose that's fair enough, but putting it into a whole new set and needing 1m+ to get it would be a scumbag move.
Pogba in the totw
That will mean his headliner goes to 91.
Cavani has risen about 100k
Anyone have an idea how quickly they upgrade?
RIP Kondogbia
https://www.reddit.com/r/FIFA/commen...d_will_change/
ffs.
He won't work in my team anymore.
https://www.futbin.com/19/player/177...m=10&schem=100
I think I'll go with Arthur to replace him.
Still works for me if I can convert Griezmann back to Striker, Cavani to CM and shuffle even more players around at KO than before. Ball ache, but no major issue and works in the eventual team I want still too.
So back when the POTM came out I bought a Sterling for 180. He wasn’t needed and tanked like 90k. This upgrade means I could sell him for a profit
Finally.
Is that a 3 jump for Reus? Jesus
I think I'm going to skip Arthur, I've just realised I can start like this:
https://www.futbin.com/19/squad/1469664
I thought I wasn't able to bring in Aouar on full chem but I can with a different starting formation.
Can you not do that same formation, swap Raul into the Aouar slot and leave Kondogbia out left AM?
Surrounded by two icons and a shared league.
I could have it appears but I've already sold him and Aouar is fucking mega.
I loved it when I had De Bruyne at CM (he works better for me there than CAM for some reason) with Aouar at CAM.
Now that I've seen Aouar can come in again I'm more than happy that they ruined Kondogbia.
Good to see the ratings refresh hitting.
Anyone who did the latest POTM Reus could well see their 91 rated turn into a 94 rated. Sterling confirmed up to an 87 gets things off to a great start for me, my POTM could well get itself up to a 90 rating. It matches what was said on SoFIFA.
SoFIFA also has Van Dijk moving to 88 rated, Alisson at 87 and Aubameyang up to 88 to name a few.
This means I'm saving my 100k packs for Friday. I'll just open my reds tomorrow.
I wasnt sure if you had already ditched him.
It took me ages to shift him as the price would keep lowering by 10k whenever I put him up.
Sold him in the end for 430k and instantly his price starting fucking rising. He's back to 480k now.
Ffsdone that a few times.
Took Laporte (86) and Pizzi (85) from the pick packs for the ratings alone. Also took the tradeable packs from my DR rewards with the promo there. Will add the MM packs tonight, and have 15 odd packs saved for an opening tomorrow evening.
Got Adan and Moreno from my DR rewards.
Was going to hold fire until the promos but the lure of packing a Dortmund or Spurs players was too great to resist. I didn't pack one.
Dante as my red, ugh.
Bellerabi 85 and someone whose name I cant remember as an 81 for me. Haven't yet touched my rivals rewards or opened any other packs.
Is anyone still bothering with Futswap? If have thought the player quality would be ramping up, but that much effort for a 86 rated card doesn't seem to be worth it.
Picked up FIFA19 for £20 so hi boys!
I do the easy SBCs and challenges but that’s it’s. I don’t do the challenges that require me to change my team or slog a mode.
I just go for the rare mega pack and then get the silvers with whatever I have left.
What the hell, why do EA have to give Rashford 5 star skills tonight. Finally reached being able to afford him after days of trading and he goes up in price because EA decide to update this today!
Rashford HL up 150k from when I bought him.
That'll probably sway me into the Rashford POTM. It'll help if he gets a refresh tomorrow as well.
105 Rare Gold players coming tomorrow. Even just a rating refreshed player would satisfy me.
I completely fucked the finish up (I think I was a little surprised it came off) but I really need to try and use this in WL:
I'm assuming that'd the headliner version you have there? In which case how would you compare him to say, Raul?
The 5* upgrade has pushed his headliner to 640k on xbox, whilst his POTM can currently be done for 480k and you get some packs back. I'm almost certainly going to sell Marcelo back and then bring in him and Mendy/Varane etc.
I have a sneaking feeling that they're going to release the refreshed players in stages, rather than all at once. I do hope I'm wrong though.
So ... there's a bundle on PSN with the last three games for £35. It's ... potentially good value, I guess.
EA are adament ive been involved in coin distrubtion and i am a fraud. They are refusing to unban me. I will continue to fight my case though and email and call them daily.
What, exactly did you do that you think you've been banned for?
