Who is currently winning the European Powerhouses?
Rijkaard
ADP by 9% over Raul
Rulebreakers Talisca for an 85 rated squad. Physical down 4. Pace up 7. He looks like a good card.
Out for 6 days so I will probably end up doing that.
Might have to do that Talisca. Haven’t been able to find a way to keep him and upgrade the team elsewhere sufficiently, but he’s bloody brilliant. I could run that 84 on 8 Chem and he’s still be good enough.
Where do you play him Merse? With those workrates it looks like you could play him anywhere in the attacking third.
I have him behind Alex Teixera (who is also boss) in my Brazil team in a 4-3-3 (4). Could probably get him into a decent hybrid without too much faff.
Yev - I haven't played SB against a decent team...far too much trouble than it's worth. I just mash the crap teams on it.
CAM in 41212, CM in 433(4) and CDM in 4231 though I‘lol likely drop the 433(4) soon. He’s a cracking CAM. Also played him at striker before I got Gabriel Jesus and he was superb there too. Scored 31 in 27 games this weekend league and doesn’t feel like one of the players that are behind the power curve (Llorente, Neto, Texeira somewhat).
Finally doing the silver challenges.
Scored 2 quick goals in my first two games and 2 rage quits.
Still need 1 more assist (I tackled the second guy from his kick off with Vydra and ended up scoring) and 1 more goal.
Edit: Another quick 2-0 ragequit. My Silver side is actually quite decent.

Rivals for a bit.
https://www.twitch.tv/chemicallocust
Need to secure Rank 1 and the final 123 Weekend League points. Albeit they're probably a formality now.
EDIT: Oh and Rulebreaker cards count as 'rare' now.
Beat me with the edit
I also did Niane the other night and even in Squad Battles he seems disappointing, which is a shame.
Still haven't done that.
No rules mode is, on the whole, shit but not much better than fouling someone's Mbappe in the box, breaking down the other end and then dinking his keeper with a probably offside loan R9
Just rage quit like a little bitch after failing to win for the third match in a row. Hate this fucking game sometimes.
I wish they would:
- make midfielders chase back
- make players try to get back onside after a set piece
- make players tackle with their dominant foot
Friendlies done in 7. Thank god.
Played a couple of rivals games. Scored another one
3-0 rage quit and that's weekend league qualified for.
Nice, I'll be keeping an eye out for that this weekend. Had a day away today (other than some BPM). Need to work on Mukiele next, and open up about 70 silver upgrade packs, hopefully in prep for league SBCs in the near future.
Rivals seemed really easy tonight. I assume because everyone's ditched it in favour of weekend league.
I probably need to play some tomorrow night. Get some points for some rewards. I actually miss objectives being in rivals for that reason.

Its going to be so disappointing if Kane gets it with his RB out. Unless they make it dirt cheap
Today I finally discovered how to search for all bronze/silver/gold rather than the individual type on the console \0/.
For anyone who doesn't know, just use your right thumbstick to scroll on the quality bar instead of selecting it with X.
My defence just decided to completely not bother in a match.
Lost 7-5 in a game where I was so much better but my defenders would just step out of the way and/or he'd get every single bounce.
This game is fun in it's current state but it's also infuriating.
A good chunk of TOTW was leaked
Wilfred Zaha
Federico Valverde
Luis Alberto
Paulinho
Patrick Bamford
Lassina Traoré
Joshua Kimmich
Joe Gomez
Paulinho Talisca Hyperlink incoming.
I have also packed Gomez twice already. A 3rd would be nice.
I think I'm going to make this team.
I can then change in game to 4-4-2 (with Kramaric up top, Son and Sancho wide) or a 4-2-3-1 (Kramaric behind Hwang).
Edit: Taken out Boateng for Klostermann and I'd like to bring in Delaney but the fucker is at 70k now.

Nice team that 'how.
Decent content tonight.
I already have to bring on Vydra as a sub in my silver team. Kean is going to kill me!

Back on with the silvers.
Played my first game with the team and it went ok.
I went 2-0 up early but then he scored a corner and we shat the bed and were 3-2 down by the end of the first half.
He then had someone sent off as we were pushing hard and Son ended up assisting a goal as well as scoring one to give us a 4-3 win.
Edit: Bought IF Delaney. I can't stand Lucas Hernandez and H/H anymore.

Just played the best player I've faced on the game thus far.
Lost 5-0 and he dominated from the first minute.
I probably should have scored a goal or two but he could have easily had more too.
Down 4-0, I come back to lose 4-3.
Down 5-0, I come back to lose 5-4.
Its more that I spent ages figuring out how to get Mukhtar on 8 chem along with all but one other on 10. I then have to bring Vyrda off the bench because I couldnt make it work with him in the team.
Doing this No Rules stuff against my better judgement and I hate it.
2 wins down though, so am annoyingly committed now.
Lack of offside makes it the pits.
Get any decent rivals rewards gents?
Went untradeable again and the pack stockpile is now at 54.
Went untradeable got fuck all.
Much, much better rewards. Took the coins from Rivals (70k) to add to the 45k from Champs for me to afford Auba, and managed to get Paulinho (85) from the player picks - I enjoyed his 83 so with 84 Talisca looking awesome for me, he may find his way back into the team. Got Rafael Guerreiro (86) with the other pick.
Also packed Diego Carlos, who I was looking to buy already at 20k, along with Rodrigo who looks a decent supersub and a few 83s. Not bad at all.
Had Diego Carlos for a while now (150+ appearances) and he's really good.
Auba and Alba in, with Paulinho. Probably be staying away from buying players for a while now, waiting for Futmas. Auba and Jesus up front, Talisca behind, Paulinho at CDM in the 41212(2), Jesus drops to CAM when in 433(4) and 4231 modes, Talisca into CM/CDM when required.
I never could get that to work on XBox.
It only ever worked about 65% of the time but I hated doing it. I'd rather keep playing.
I used it practically every SB game. 5-0 and then do that and either carry on working, watching something or do something I need to do in the house.
