FUT Birthday will be coming up soon and that weird Captains thing with boosted heros apparently.
https://www.goal.com/en-us/news/fifa...61j03awov4t43o
Last year we had What IF, FUT Birthday and then TOTS next. You get fodder packs for this promo or for FUT Birthday really.
It also goes without saying, check the club for silver Germans in the Dutch league. You can knock it down to 12 SB games if you have 11 of those and a first owner Liga NOS team.
If you don't mind selling those and playing 6 extra games, you can make stupid amounts as most are going near max BIN.
Now I'm back on the main account it's all in for a trip to the casino for me. 3 x fodder packs and the Prime Icon pack.
I thought about Xavi on the other account Fox, but there's a reason he's that cheap and we could all have him by the weekend, he'll be appalling.
Is anyone else getting a load of DNF's at the end of games when the screen just hangs?
Can't say I have. Is this only in that sweaty friendlies mode or across all game modes?
Had it in SB last night and in a game of the sweaty friendlies mode again today, which is twice now.
That Greaseman looks very good.
Sherriff reckons a bunch of Silver Stars coming, including Elanga and Joe Linton
I was hoping for Elanga.
VVD from the UCL MM's but I probably wont touch that "german power" sbc. Seems a bit of a rip off.
I did it thinking it was a Rare Players Pack. It was total shite
It's a stinking con.
Greasy looks good but I really don't get on with left footed central forwards.
He used to have that special something in game that made him annoying as hell.
Now why the fuck did they have to release that Greasy bastard. I want…
Also gained my first token before. Did the Serie A team(Martinez felt great) and even got my first message from the community. They scored first and proceeded to pause for me. 3 times running. On the 3rd one he sent me a message saying “First goal wins”
I sent him back a simple “Nope” and scored straight from kick off. Wonderful stuff.
Erm....
Guess that has to be a flashback, flashing back years and years. I like it.
Same. It sounds like a great promo so far.
That's actually a quality idea.
That would be ace. I really enjoy playing with my silver team. Kinda wish there was more to play for with it
Also - I heard a rumour of an Origi vs. Mount showdown for the final on Sunday
Oh come on. You can’t dangle an 88 rated Origi in front of me.
Saw that too though a few questioned is as there was a Liverpool vs Chelsea showdown already this season
Got the One League swaps done. Left the Ligue 1 guys til last and good lord is that Neymar on another level to anything I've used. I thought Martinez was good but if you like to dribble a lot with your attackers, get that Neymar done.
I've now ticked off the Liga NOS/first owner tokens. I'll have to try and get the needed 4 Rivals wins tonight for some rewards. If I can do that quickly, I'll give champs a bash.
Those games also took me over the threshold for the WW pack in Year in Review. It was not the Zlatan I demanded, but I don't think I feel like this was still good:

EDIT: Rumours are several Silver Stars this week. Many of them established players but with throwback 74 rateds.

Nice. Not used him but he's meant to be great
He is one of the cards I considered using as Box to Box. Bit of a bastard to come up against
I can't believe they've given us an 89 rated Origi.
Always good for an undeserved card.
Have to give them to Liverpool somehow but want to avoid the big hitters.
I'll take slander about many players, but when it comes to my boy Divock you wash your fucking mouth out.
RTTF Telles out of a league SBC pack. Timely
Nice.
Atletico have been in rotten form so there's a decent chance he goes up. (assuming it's not an immediate sell)
Untradable - I was thinking of selling Cancelo and picking him up to link to Fred/Neymar and this might have forced my hand. Can plug Mbappe/Yedder or an icon into the team instead.
Do you have enough to get Divock? He looks bonkers, even without the upgrade
Now see. This guy had made his mind up about taking Xavi and Cafu.
Now I've been given Guendouzi by the FIFA Gods, I am unsure. That Greasyman also looks outstanding. Then all of a sudden ultimate rat Yedder fits straight in.
And this is assuming any fodder packs would contain nothing of use as well. Alls I'm saying is, I'm now unsure.
Got up to 8 rivals wins earlier on today so decided, with silver beasts being back, that I would buy the German Eredivisie silvers and hammer through that. A couple more games and I should have 5 tokens done.
Havent touched that live friendly mode in two days, need to look at getting the last 6 wins.
Edit : Emre Can from the silver beasts

Red 86 Fekir today and not much else from the packs so far other than a bunch of dupes
Looks kinda meh, even for a Silver. Would be cool if he's 4/5 though.Originally Posted by Danny
SMS the best from my 84+ pick
I got RTTF Bowen from mine. Had him tradeable thankfully.
Smalling (tradeable) and Gomez (untradeable) from MM's/rest of my rewards.
It's a very cool concept but I cant help but think there's an objective for using these cards down the line. Or else where would we ever use them?
On this point I think they really need to go a bit old school. In FIFA 17 and maybe 19, they had weekend leagues in which there were certain restrictions. Some had no Icons allowed, some where league specific etc. I'd love for them to bring that in. Imagine a WL where you could use first owner cards only, for example.
As for rewards, it was looking a bit flat and like Thommas boy Mitrovic was going to have to go into Origi, but the last pack provided me with 2 x 84 rated IF cards and then recycling the shit into the picks gave me Ito and one from Celtic.
Thanks to that I got Divock into the club for free(it feels very satisfying doing this). I still have not built a team yet though. I played Rivals with gold Lopes, Denayer, Sanches and Atal. Still managed 8 wins in 10 games and I'm now nicely into Div 3.
I'm going to have to relook at that option sheet for swaps and decide what to do over the weekend. I'm still leaning Xavi, but need to weigh up the options. I have 350k to hand which is almost exactly the cost of that Greaseman. They really didn't put him up for long though so I need to decide quick if I'm to do him.
I think there is going to be extra red picks for winning with silvers in WL, though I am not sure if they will tempt people.
I cant see myself using him but the Greizmann is giving me serious FOMO. His cards are usually way too good.
I still need to use my Future Stars tokens. Imagine missing the deadline and having done all the SBCs and objectives for nothing...
How many you holding?
Hope you used them....
74 KDB out. 86 rated CM before chem style. 82 rated team + IF. Instant complete.
Loads of objectives too. Talles Magno and Joelinton + some packs milestones.
Thankfully I did use them. I had 23! Ended up doing the Future Stars Team 1 player for 12 (Joao Pedro so not too bad), and the 3 lowest fodder packs. Neither Frimpong or Gallagher really took my fancy.
Same. Gallagher looks good but I havent seen anything from anyone to suggest he was remotely worth it.
Very impressed by the change up with this. Hopefully it’s not this and then for the rest of the cycle we hear nothing more of it.
Love the chance to get back the previous silver stars too(great for me potentially). Though what is the point of the 71-74 upgrade?
I think it’s probably to help people build a team if they didn’t do silver stars.
Though I am thinking it’s going to be a Prem silver printer for the league SBC.
What Danny said and for league SBC grinders it's great value. 4 cards compared to 11 needed for the standard bronze upgrade and you're getting 3 cards back instead of 2.
I tried a few out for science and yeah you're right. Got the two silver stars done. Surprisingly more difficult than before because everyone has figured out what I learned tonight. Get the ball to KDB and shoot from 25 yards. His shooting is so good that it just goes in. Silver keepers cannot cope.
Going to try and combine silvers and Eridevise to try and get 2 swaps tokens and the Talles Mango card done at the same time. The difficulty is going to be no super subs off the bench. I was going to try WL but that can wait I guess.
I also put the very last of what I had into player picks before they went away and managed 4 picks. Got a random 80, then Ruben Dias, then Sterling and then TOTW Auba. Great fodder and likely puts me in a position to do the largest part of Greaseman, which is almost half of his price. He's becoming more than tempting now.
