Amen to that last sentence. There is some very good stuff from the FS but if nothing else Neymar should be in.

Sentiment is well placed, but I'm gonna need 87's/88's to get over the line with Neymar given I can't buy anyone. My fear is opening it and Hummels is the face card. Did it on my main account a few days ago and got the Italian FS, Neuer and Oblak, would have taken that all day long on this one.
EDIT: Also need another IN Form from somewhere too. Could really do with there being a few more tokens to come so I can open the Ultimate pack too.

Supposed to be 30 in total
We need icon swaps next week.
I've just twigged that I also have that 88 Di Maria TOTW to chuck in if needs be.
I do detest these objective cards having the score in 10 separate games tagged on all the time. It's such a shit grind.
Tried out Neymar this evening (only in SB) and he feels pretty good. Nice and responsive and the stamina is good enough that he doesn't run out of steam too easily
Packed Kabore from an 81+ pick and then finished off Silver Stars, getting Lewa and Immobile from the Rare Mega Pack. Huge fodder.
Very nice fodder.
After a slog tonight I think I might change up the team and get rid of Cancelo and Jorginho. Feeling like I am wasting a lot of coin using Cancelo at full back and dont think I have a way to move him into midfield. Jorginho just feels like a bit of a passenger.
Leaves me very unsure where to go from here. I could do with a French LB for Ginola and Varane so Hernandez or Delaine look like the best options.
Needn't have worried about the 85x10 as it came up with the goods. FS Adams, Benzema, Bruno Fernandes, Lukaku, Kroos, Di Maria, Barnardo Silva, Chiellini, Thiago Silva and Gomez.
Adams slots straight into the side in place of Nnunku and Bruno is probably a better bet than 85 Chalobah, making the side and bench now look like this:
I've got enough fodder in the club to do Neymar now and I get to keep all of the first 11 above, but it does mean binning off Pedrinho and using a tradeable dupe Lloris, so I think I'll hold fire for now in the hope of getting some more fodder and another In Form.
The rabble will make their Rivals debut tonight.
Apart from your RB being bobbins (and you can fix that by just bringing on Kabore), it's not the worst team I've seen. I'm sure I've played worse in Rivals.
@thommo
Another Mitro IF coming according to the Twitterati.
Should be a record breaker, no?
Smashed through 7 games of Rivals at lunchtime in under an hour due to rage quit city/starting in Div 10 and am up to Div 8. Want to push for Div 7 and better rewards tomorrow but got DC'd in game 8 which means the streak has gone, so might not be arsed tonight beyond getting win 8 before I jump back on Skyrim.
Either way, so proud of the boys and loving Lewa. I think I need to appreciate the wardrobes more.
No confirmation either way Fox.
Div 7 hit and with it 50 Rivals/SB games and the Signature Signing card.
I got Jimenez. Goes into my Prem team so could have been worse. Need a Hunter or something to make him usable mind.
It was definitely better than any team I faced in Div 10, 9 or 8. I didn't expect it to be this easy to get a vaguely competitive team this quickly from a "no buying anything from the transfer market" game. I haven't even unlocked 88 Chalobah, Sarr or the French chap either yet.
Party bag in 10 mins. Ill be suckered in as usual.
Showdown Bailly vs De Paul next week.
Mid Rio, Prime Vidic, God Varane and Showdown Bailly. Can I play 6 ATB in my United P&P?

Another academy player out too Nunes from Sporting. 88 top rated card.
I'll give the PB a miss at an 85 rated, but that Nunes looks banging.
Delaine for me. 200k card so a win in overall I would say.
Another token in the silver star. Ill likely pass. I dont need the token and the card is tragic.
Bit of a result that Danny. Agree on the silver star, absolute shocker. If I don't pack another IF I'll do him just to kick him into a Neymar segment.
Probably the only reason he is worth it, that and maybe for silver beasts goals every two weeks.
The amount of 86s in that TOTW is lol.
It does however have me worried for my 85+ x10 pack. Could do without a lot of those in it.
Been in a rivals grind again tonight and got to within 1 win of Div 4, with a crap EPL team to do the FS token at the same time. Div 5 seemed to be the trigger point for the good teams to emerge. There’s been several Neymar and even some TOTY sightings.
Kroos up to 40k ~12k profit per card.
He looks immense. I need that TIF in red.
Only equalled the Champ record at the weekend, surprised he got it though as they must have taken the 2 goals at home to Millwall in midweek into account. Maybe they save the record breaker for if he breaks 42 goals.
The final card of that Nunes being upgraded to a 44 is very nice.
Hope no one started on Nunes
I was doing something else and I noticed it only recorded one goal-per-game rather than letting me do it in one go
Swaps looks like it has moments Gerrard in it. Build around him Yev
Packed FS Salisu and Kabore in the space of about 5 player picks/packs. Tried out both in Rivals and Salisu in particular is a rock. It's only Div 4 but he absolutely pocketed POTM CR7 in the last game I had.
HM Lautaro is now up to 21 goals and 10 assists in 8 online games. If you haven't done him yet, I would highly recommend doing so.
I may very well have to choose between that Lautaro and Neymar as my star to build around.
I now have 13 FS tokens. The silver star one should be easy enough to get but then it's a choice of trying to get the one from Nunes or paying up for the pack one. I really need to finish it tomorrow too as the FS players are out of packs by then. Even the tiny chance of a Pedri or Ferran Torres is enough to gamble on.
It was such a waste of time

Cracking fodder from Rivals this morning.
Sancho, Ruben Dias, Ginter, Ibra, Ramos & Hazard.
And also packed the following, which all help hugely:
IF Beukema (77 rated) Catalyst, Shadow, Kounde, Bernat (strong link to Neymar when I do him) and a Deadeye (for Neymar when I do him).
It's cracking opening packs while playing the game this way, there's some form of good news in almost every one.
The rumoured RTTF team includes Renato and Kimpembe
Would utterly love either of those obvs.
Today's preview pack has Busquets, Capoue (can replace Foyth and get Niakhate on 10 chem ), a finisher and a deadeye in it. Need to grind for the 7.5k coins mind, but I am loving this.
Marquinhos from a 75+ player pack. I have no idea what is going on.
Are you planning on taking them to the WL anytime soon?
Absolutely. Sat on about 400 qualification points, so think it'll be next weekend before I attempt it and providing I can qualify of course, which is far from a done deal.
First league SBC completed, the Prem (by a mile the easiest given bpm and no single team requirement), didn't pack much of note in, but more players in the cloob. Might complete MM's tonight and then hammer the 81+ picks.
Giroud as my red and then 86 JWP and Muller in my packs. A few dupes went into a could of 81s and I got 85 Lautaro from those so I did another party bag which gave me a dupe Cheisa. A great result coin wise but not the best for me.
I am the 85 squad away from finishing Tanganga and need to decide if I actually want to. 2 days left on him to maybe see what we get over the next couple of days of content.
91 POTM muller out for around 60k.
Cheaper than other 91s.
Fodder and Henry probably.
Unless I decide to push on for the prime pack.
Might have to do that Muller.
Seriously need to start packing some in forms mind.
As for icon swaps, I might have to do 82 & 83 packs and Gerrard.
