Just signed in and saw Zidane. I dont think ive ever had him unless in draft so i will do him. Ive got quite a lot of fudda so i think i may only have to buy one of the 88+

Apparently Kane is coming as an SBC/Objective for TOTGS.
Packed his gold dupe untradeable today. So that going to block packs for a little. I have a Lewa I need to save from the gulag tomorrow too.
Club is begging for a massive SBC but I am not fully set on Zidane.
For my playstyle, Trailblazers Kane should be mega for me. I like big Strikers with excellent passing but he just isnt it. Some cards have secret stats. Gold Haaland makes some crazy runs against the defenders. Its like he has a playstyle called "tries to beat the offside trap". He can't pass though.
Kane can pass but he does not make those defense-splitting runs. If Kane comes, ill get him and try him again and try agian
The new Tesco Value Haaland is pretty much better than his gold card. Just crushes defenders
Ahha. Maybe ill try him on conservative interceptions. I use that on balance fullbacks so they run back into position once they are forward. Not sure if it works that way though.
Ronaldo spiking, seems like there might an EVO he fits in coming.
Its been "confirmed" a max 84 evo for any position is coming too.
Shoretire and Bennett (United Bronzes) finally made it into packs. If I had known that I wouldn’t have wasted marauder on Martinez from Barcelona (to make fodder)
Invested in Shoretire, Pellistri and Diallo for this new Evo.
First two are practically extinct. I should have trusted my gut and bought more than 30 of them. Total that is unfortunately
Winter Wildcards going to be crazy
Is Zidane any good? His stats look suspect for a 92 rated card but I’m now overburdened with fodder and need to do something with it.
I haven't had a chance to use him all that much but he's been good so far. Other option you have is either Eusebio or wait for the new POTM Mbappe.
Eusebio looks the opposite really, amazing stats but suspect playstyles. Have you used him?
Unless I go BD in FIFA Points or no life it (I don't want to do either), I doubt I'll have the fodder for Mbappe v2.
Nah, not tried him. There's a loan (for both actually) if you want try before you buy
Same here fodder wise. Large amounts of big fodder but no middle of the road.
Sitting on a large stack of packs behind dupes too.
@thommo do you have Wilson IF? Looks solid through the TOTW upgrade followed by midfield dynasty
I put him into another upgrade already unfortunately.
I haven't been on to see the requirements, is it any IF?
New season is just hella 83s and some shit players. Cheers Geoff
Yep, that SBC roadmap looked lame as fuck as well. All hinges on how good/expensive they make Gullit and I'm going for a bit shit and overpriced.
Yeah, some absolute shitters there. They go out of their way to make sure you can't get any decent strikers. It's always a load of CMs or CBs.

Rarity: Team of the Week
Overall: Max. 86
Pace : Max. 84
Physicality : Max. 86
Playstyles : Max. 8
New evo coming:
All positions, all ratings
Max. Pace = 80
Max. Shooting = 75
Max. Dribbling = 91
Max. Physicality = 80
Max. Defending = 80
Max. Playstyles = 9
Will either lead to a quick triple chain of Hannibal or get added to the stack for Shoretire.
lol at that Mbappe price. If Gullit is shit tomorrow I’ll probably crack on with Zidane.
That Hannibal triple evo (like a rock, detail orientated and growth spurt) is going to be nuts
The list and buy objective is broken.
Complete it one by doing 50 of each. Then it takes one of each to complete the refresh.
I bought a bunch of silvers to do it
8 to go on Mbappe and packed Cantona along the way.
Huge! I used Cantona and Mbappe a few years ago and they were fun
This "Pep's Legacy" Evo is a bit nuts. Can get Shaw/Malacia up to a decent level or even Gold Cancelo into a 5/5 beast. Not sure which to go for
Mbappe done, but having just gone into the Winter Wilcard cup I don't know why I bothered - I've never been worse as a FIFA game than this one.
4 losses and 1 solitary win, which was a game I should have lost. My players all congregate in the centre of the pitch no matter what I do with the width setting so I have no space to work in, they make utterly retarded runs, offer no passing options whatsoever and lose the ball if they so much brush against an opposition player. As for my opponent, they seem to be all over the pitch at once, have acres of space and are impossible to get the ball from. It's like I'm playing a different version of the same game.
Any tips welcome.
If you have TOTW Alaba he becomes and absolute monster through the TOTW evo
I can’t help too much as I haven’t bothered to play online unless required for evos. Everyone is probably still using the 71 depth thing, it got nerfed but not enough from what I saw.
Would day maybe check out Hashtag Harry or Boras to see what they play?
Adeyemi gold price is up. No concrete leaks of an evo but I am buying Shoretire and Pellistri since they play LW.
Getting them for like 200 and 500 coins. Fuck all to lose.
Apparently that Year in Review player pick has all base icons in the pool and it's an 84 and 85 squad to do.
Yeah, it's definitely got all of the base icons in it....

Dinho a little better than my Xabi Alonso
The 4-3-2-1 from last year still works a treat.
Whenever the cups come out, the first day or so is a nightmare because you've got all the hyper-sweaty fuckers in there until they get their wins and then it evens out a bit.
Mbappe + Ronaldinho in the space of a couple of days is some top work.
Just got Alaba from the TOTW player pick.
That double evo
Indeed. Aim is to get a team of players that will do me until TOTS as soon as possible, so with Mbappe, Dinho and Alaba that's 3 spots sorted.
How do you guys go about creating space in the box? Mbappe is obviously mustard, but as my furthest player forward he's constantly marked so hard that when he does get the ball in the box the option I have 9/10 is to take a shot that will inevitably get blocked.
SB Legendary or people who can actually defend in rivals is where this is most apparent.
Against human left stick dribbling with no pace button being held is often enough to wriggle enough space.
The AI fall for the bait less often, especially on legendary. So its mostly about moving the ball across the box until a space opens up.
Ta. I think I'm getting a bit better now. One thing I cannot get down at all though is player switching. What in the fuck is up with this? The left bumper doesn't pick who you want and the right stick, well, I've no idea what that's meant to be doing.
Never is this more present than at corners, where by the time I've fumbled control to my tallest player their tallest player has twatted it into the net.
The "Buy 50" objective is glitched, if you haven't seen it.
1. Buy 50 bronzes and list them to complete the objective
2. Claim all
3. Open picks
4. Buy another bronze and list it
5. Claim all
Etc.
I got WW Dybala out of one, who's pretty tidy
Yeah, it's mad. I've finished SB this week, played about 10 games in rivals and cheesed Alaba to a 93 and I'm still bennefitting from the match coin unlocks.
That's the cup finally done. Don't get the benefit of my super team in it so was quite pleased to close it out with three wins tonight. Feels like it's made me a better player over the course of the week, albeit at the cost of several burst blood vessels. I think I had about two easy games from however many I've played to get the 10 wins. Everyone else was either disgusting at left stick dribbling (why isn't this just dribbling?), pressing, countering, or all three combined.
Have you/anyone used Eusebio? I'm torn between doing him or Gullit
He's on the list, but got 7 squads left on Zidane to do first and I'm wavering as I suspect TOTY cards will leave his 18 squads looking seriously overpriced.
If it helps, Gullit is good but he's going to be behind the power curve within weeks. Cards with mid 80s for everything are ten a penny these days, compared to when Gullit was first in the game, albeit he does have good playstyles.
Oh and on Eusebio, I also packed Butragueno from the centurions Icon pick SBC which has cooled me on him somewhat.
Does anyone else dread opening an untradeable Jumbo Rare Players Pack for all the dupes and no decent cards it will inevitably bring? Mad when you consider how sought after they once were.
