What Fox said, that and discard price IFs are the way to go.

Oh and the UCLs shouldn’t have been in packs
Maybe i'm just not cut out for this shit outside of dumping dozens of dollars into it every paycheck.
I have no idea what I'm doing with my team. No real direction whatsoever.
Right now I'm lining up 4-2-3-1(2)
Kepa
Tagliafico
Otamendi
Maguire
IF Aurier
Blind
Torreira
Depay
Promes
IF Malen
Bergwijn
Notable otherwise:
Lukaku
Muller
Ozil
Lemar
Hummels
Diego Costa
got a nice handful of 83's and a few 84's
Ilicic
Kampl
Pavlenka
Nico Schulz
I technically have 457 players but they're all basically useless.
I was trying to stack my duplicates on my Transfer List but ended up just trying to sell as many as I could at whatever price point.
Idk. It sounds like first world problems typing this out but anyways. Feel myself slipping into the abyss of fifa points and wanted to vent.
Are people still saying it's best to open your packs on the console? I have my two rare golds I just realized.
Bruh, there isn't a single player in the game that's useless. There'll more or less all have their day for an SBC at some point.
Might self sacrifice down a level or two in Rivals just to try and help with the Ndombele objectives.
Only have 1/10 for the midfield maestro and 0/3 for the Ligue 1 scorers (I did have Atal score 1 in my last match off the bench but he couldn't get a second).
I did it all in Division 9 (probably the equivalent of someone good at the game being in Division 6) and it was a joy.
The system is fucking stupid and with all the XP/Icon Swaps on offer it's only going to get worse as the game goes on.
EDIT: To give you an idea, I used Loric Remy for the Ligue 1 scorers one. No chance am I doing that in Div 4/5. For the assists one I didn't need to win so I chucked games to keep me in Division 9 too.
I'll be managing things so I stay there for as long as I can.

I went for a front 6 of:
Bamba Cavani Di Maria
Ndombele Torreira Lo Celso
Took me probably 5 games to get used to them and get it completed.
Bruh, that looks like a fun team, maybe need to ditch Maguire and Blind though. They seems too slow. Van Der Beek might be a more mobile option
I suppose I should add that not being able to buy players would see me even more fucked and frustrated in the higher divisions than last year.
Vardy is pretty intensely overpowered at the moment.
In fourteen games for me he has twenty six goals and ten assists, with all of those games having been played in rivals. He's basically unstoppable when he gets running and something in his stats, I suspect his high defensive work rate in concert with his good for a striker defensive stats make him win the ball off defenders far more often than is decent.
Ill grap this sometimes this week.
Picked up OTW Joelinton, OTW Maguire, IF Orban and IF Brozovic. All at pretty much discard.
I can’t shake the urge to do potm Martinez. His base card is so good even as sub. Must resist.
Specific request I know, but does anyone know of anyone doing a fut let's play with pack only and not spending money?
Decided to spend 100k on a few random high-rated players in the hope I can make some decent profit when they're needed for an SBC
Finally finished league and nation hybrid and got a double walkout from the rare mega.
Bernardo Silva who is, surprisingly, going for buttons. Second walkout was Isco.
He left first owner in the run up to tots though. I’d love to see him do a proper pack only.
It's amazing how shit people are.
Changed my team name to 'FREE WINS' and started tanking to get to division 9.
Just had a guy who instantly paused letting all time go then he refused to shoot when I moved my keeper away and then after I score an own goal he does the shush celebration whilst running to the corner flag.
I was so close to just deciding to fuck him over which wouldn't be hard as I think I won every division 7 game I had last week by at least 4.
You probably won’t need to drop as far as 9 Mahow, I’m only there because I threw all my placement games, but when I see an up to date list of what the rewards per division are I’ll make a move to it if it’s better than 9.
EDIT: Providing I can still complete objectives easily.

I don't mean to be a pain in the ass but if you guys could remember to possibly post which players you bought when you make these posts about hoarding them for future profits I'd really appreciate it.
I realize it's a little more work for literally no reward so don't mind me necessarily just saying if you think about it.
I have a stupid question.
In your passing options... are you guys using assisted, semi-assisted, off....
I used to play with my through balls being completely off back in the day and I feel like I was fucking lethal but then when I got back into playing xbox (Fifa 16 or 17) for some reason I just left all of them on assisted.
I'm beginning to think if I could just take the time to adjust my brain to the manual settings I'd fare much better.
There's one I made early. A bunch of discard specials. The OTW are going to take a while. IFs should climb soon.
Outside that check out the cheapest 84, 85s and 86s on futbin. https://www.futbin.com/stc/cheapest There is just no way some of those 84s stay that low. They would get close to 10k quite often last year when the right SBCs dropped.
Take Illarramendi last year. Look at the spikes on his chart. We are in the early 2k stages now (less for some)
https://www.futbin.com/19/player/104...r+Illarramendi
Or Verratti. You can pick up 86 like him (Bonucci, Parejo or Verratti himself) for under 10k. This time last year he was 7k, by the end of October he was 30k.

3/4 on All in, 2/3 on Origin Story and still 1/10 for Midfield Maestro.
Right now I'm just forcing the ball to IF Atal who comes on instantly but for a few games I had him on basic chemistry and his finishing was atrocious. For my last game I put a deadeye on him and he was lethal.
When I finish with the Ligue 1 one (hopefully in my first match tomorrow) I'll then just have to keep spamming through balls with my midfielders.
How's the self relegation going?
Having used him for a bit Ndombele is sadly not that good. Hopefully he gets an in form tonight.

Went down to 9.
First game I played in the division was against someone who had also self-relegated because they were division 6+ quality and I struggled to a 2-2 draw.
The other 2 games that I played were a puddle of piss. Had an early rage quit (with Atal scoring twice) and then I won 7-0.
Yeah, I’ve come up against a few people who were clearly doing the same thing, which is quite nice actually as it provides a tougher test and keeps the elo down.
Yep yep. They aren’t going to be instant profit but you should see decent return on those. On the back of looking at that I went and picked up a couple of each of the cheap 86’s myself.
We should get Prem player of the month soon too, hopefully that will start to move the price of these players since we aren’t getting icon SBCs
Ndombele SNUBBED.
What a shocking TOTW that is.
I just did the Playstation FC SBC not realising it was for just a kit
Also the new squad add in for SBC is both better and worse.
What have they done to it?
You can now add players easier and move position to position like before. However, when you press the button to preview selection the requirements list is covered up.
Pointless.
In watching from afar and im not impressed.
Packed Handanovic from my first pack from the European MM and nothing afterwards. I really need to save the packs for later when my first is a decent pull as the following ones are always shite after that.
Pavard is extinct on PC. Easy 20k
Yeah, all the lower rated Bayern players are due to the European Marquee Matchups. I had him and Martinez untradeable and whacked them both in.
Ah cool, I dont do any of this SBC stuff. I should follow it more for the profit I guess.
If you can be arsed you can check the solutions on here and see who/which leagues are selling for coin.

Cheers big man
Oooh that's a good idea.
Last night I chucked like 50 of my 75 rated golds onto the transfer market.
I generally kept the lowest potential price at 300 but then would bump up the buy now to 450-500 or something like that.
I was surprised to find almost nearly all of them sold at the buy now price :\
This also makes me feel relatively silly because I notoriously quick sale'd most of my lower rated cards I didn't think would get me anything other than the quick sale amount anyways.
Everything is worth something.
Yup I've followed the bronze pack method, got.em all listed and made about 6k off selling them, having spent 3200 on packs. Small but easy profit.
Up to 74k now.
I'm starting to think it wise to just hoard every card rated above 82 or 83 and try to sell everything else for a (relative) premium.
I also had this Bundesliga 2 player from Germany that was a 75 gold sell for like 2500, luckily having checked his other cards on the market before throwing him on there.

I've been spamming the bronze packs to buggery and am up to over 1,000 players now.
Think I've just guaranteed Rank 2 in Div 9 Rivals which is 2 Prime Electrum Packs and 4 Jumbo Premium Gold. Not worth the extra effort vs the 2 Mega Packs for Rank 3, but I was a fair bit of the way there after doing the Ndombele objectives.
Just got the 10 rivals matches with midfield assists left (8 in total) for Ndombele.
Annoyingly, I thought it was assists total not assists in separate matches. Got 6 in my last match and then realised
