Do you mean the discard value for packs?

Go to the pack you want on that list to see. From a quick scan through you can probably only expect about 50k back at absolute discard value on something like Keanes SBCs. However you'll almost certainly get 83s and 84s and they sell for a fair amount more than discard value especially when in demand as they are now.
The way I look at it, is would you do it if you got literal discard value back from the packs? If yes, then go get it now. Any pack pull then is a big bonus.
Opened my reds and got nothing. Simeone and Pepe. Gutted to miss out on Fabinho. The luck improved after that though and pulled David Silva followed by Mo Salah. Just under 300k pulled in there.
Decided to take untradeable Rank 2 in Rivals. Got me 4 x Jumbo Premium Gold packs, 2 x Premium Electrum players packs and 2 x Rare Mega Packs. Got myself a couple of 85s in Brahimi and Milinkovic-Savic and 1 discard TOTW item in Sousa. Lots and lots of yummy consumables though.
Gutting out some of the unneeded stuff from the club. I've got Salah on my bench now and sold off my bench Mane and Mertens. Even with that and with still having UCL Sanches I've got close to 300k on hand and I want to move Griezmann on. I've noticed myself making changes about the 60th minute and it tends to always be him that I bring off. Selling him would take me to 500k.
I've knocked this up with it for now, but I'm not too sure on the right side of that defence...

Rivaldo out too. Needs an icon
Kroos up to 70k. I'm going to make 300k clean on him.
Tempted to do all of those Futmas players.
Fuck Rivaldo.
He's made it more expensive for me to finish Keane.
Speaking of Keane, I don't know what to do when I get him.
Run him at CDM, keep UCL live Lingard at CM and sell UCL live Fabinho or sell Lingard and play one of Keane/Fabinho at CM with the other at CDM.
Lingard isn't likely to get an upgrade whereas Fabinho is but I'm not sure how effective Keane or Fabinho would be at CM.
Was hoping for a really good English player today but Alli looks a bit meh unfortunately. Not sure he is worth the 100k outlay.
I've not played for the last few years, have the FUTMAS cards always been average. Only one I've done so far is Torreira because he was cheap and a big upgrade.
FUTMAS has been trash if you ask me. Most people have players in their teams that are already better. I want mega upgrades. Still want KDB on xmas day.
Yeah, I won't be doing Alli having seen his stats and requirements and I don't need Bailey having done League SBC Gnabry.
Lukaku looks pants, but I'm only tempted because he has a strong link to the Serbian beast.
I've done Lukaku as he was so cheap.
Rivaldo's prime being LW is a bit shit. I wanted a CAM.
May just sell up my high rated stock, walk away with a couple of million and buy some Icons. I really want Petit.
Stuck Lingard, Sanches and Fabinho up for sale.
Will complete Keane and then get the baller Pogba or KDB.
Keane is done.
Think the best I got from my packs was an 84 or two.
Let me know how he is. He's seriously tempting me. I did want Gattuso but Keane looks better in almost every way.
Switches to a 4-1-2-1-2(2) in game with Sanchez and Aguero up front, Salah at CAM and Keane at CDM.
He's brilliant and despite being a little lacking in the height department (and not brilliant at jumping) I find he wins a hell of a lot of headers. Played 2 so far (rivals and SB) and he's scored a goal in each from a corner.
Drew 1-1 in the SB game despite being completely overrun by a high pressure guy but he couldn't get past Keane. He had to go via the wings because Keane was just locking shit down.
I still need to tweak my custom tactics and I feel like he'll be Vieira-esque. Backbone is also perfect for him, he breaks stuff up and then can start attacks.
Went a bit too mental with my tactics.
Lost the first game 2-0 in a proper hectic affair although I should have won and then in the second I won 5-4 after going 4-1 up and then having a proper wobble. This counter was class though:
All United affair (bar Marcelo) too.
I don't think I can play on fast build up attack. I'm so susceptible to counters and I get killed with them, back to possession for me I think which helps a lot.
For the love of god, turn fast build up and constant pressure off of all your tactics. Your players will be charging forward too much with both of those. Attacking wise for the former, defensively the latter. For what it's worth I play balanced on both and have no problems scoring in almost any game.
I've been playing about with the squad a bit more, mainly because I wanted Ramos in the team, but also to see if I can get more defensively stable full backs in. I barely use them going forward when both a clearly designed to be getting up there. I tried using only teams that would keep my favourites(Neymar, Mbappe, Hazard and Auba) in the team but the range in nationalities is a little tricky.
I came up with this, which I could afford now:
Neymar already plays off chemistry for me so it would be the same here. The downside to this one, although I've never used him, is Kondogbia. He looks very OP, but I'm not sure if he actually is.
There is another option on the right in Serie A. That would involve having Chiellini, Cancelo and Matuidi, but I'd then have to lose De Gea. If I wanted to, I could swap Matuidi out for Dybala in the triangle, but that would mean losing Aubameyang.
And speaking of him, his tonne is up. 100 goals and bang on 50 assists too in 94 games. Not too shabby considering they're all Champs/Rivals games.
This is the team ive managed to put togeether so far. De Bruyne is really good. I want to move him to the Fabinho posions and put him on get forward from CDM. It sounds like it could work but I need to add a CAM as a replacment. I want to get a legend but im not sure which one. Nedved looks different but henry and vieira is probably what ill save up for. Is De Gea worth getting over Allison?

I've heard that De Gea isn't as META as he was last year but he's been solid for me.
Heard good things about Ederson though, might want to try him.
Looks like Ederson has the comes for crosses trait so ill test him out on balance chem style.
Listed Matthaus up for 890k, which is the lowerst BIN by 10k and would see me make 10k if he sells.
He's fun, but a bit too short and slightly lacking to be worth that level of investment.
Matthaus sold and just packed Aguero from a Jumbo Gold Pack. Not even a premium one.

Seriously tempted by Rodrigo. I will go for the Cazorla as well in a bid to make my La Liga team.
Won't be doing any of those. None of them fit into my squad except Kovacic and he will not displace any of my players.
I nearly went utterly postal when I saw there was another swap deals token available for scoring using players from x league, but I've calmed since I noticed you don't have to win the games.
I'll be getting all those done over the weekend and will have Gameiro by Sunday night.
Those Futmas cards are bobbins.
Rodrigo is great but I don't run a La Liga team and the requirements are a bit of a dick.
He's bang average and 135k+ for him is a joke.
This, however.

Fuck me.
I loved his NIF when I used it at the start of the year.
That new Van Dijk upgrade
+1 speed, -2 shooting, -2 passing, -1 dribbling and +1 physical from his TOTW 87.
873k compared to 421k on PS4 right now...
Edit: Oh shit, it's a UCL Live item.
Bang an anchor on both, the UCL had 5 extra IGS where it matters.
https://www.futbin.com/19/compare/17...&schem=100,100
Yeah, he's amazing, but I've used him for the last 3 FIFA's running so must resist.
If Gameiro's crap I doubt I'll be able to though.
Still not worth it. Next upgrade is February. Maybe.That new Van Dijk upgrade
+1 speed, -2 shooting, -2 passing, -1 dribbling and +1 physical from his TOTW 87.
873k compared to 421k on PS4 right now...
Edit: Oh shit, it's a UCL Live item.
I meant Rodrigo but I do have fond memories with Ben Yedder last year at times.
It would be in February yeah and they only need to win the first leg for an upgrade.
I might get it in a couple of weeks before the match depending on the price.
https://www.futbin.com/19/player/174...m=10&schem=100
I'm tempted by this as I'm not feeling Walker.
I'd be all over it if my Walker was tradeable.
Just packed Hagi. First Icon I've ever packed
Which version?

I didnt realize that. Interesting. Still wouldnt touch it for months though!
I quite liked his 82 so that card looks like a lot of fun.
Alves on 7 chem at left vs 84 Robertson
https://www.futbin.com/19/compare/17...schem=100,null
84 Robertson vs 86 Aurier
https://www.futbin.com/19/compare/17491/17252
That makes it look like its worth playing Alves at LB off chem over Robertson and getting Aurier in. Especially at 80k cheaper.
Matthaus sold, up to 2.1m coins and still have Aguero, 10 Kroos’ and a shitload of other crap in the club.
I’ll be cleaning it all out over Christmas.
Just had my earliest quit this year at 11:21.
Salah had scored two and set up Aguero following by the quit mid way through the second pause.
Good lord. So many cards I want just came out.
Somehow got 250k to play with. Anyone got suggestions?
Paging @Yevrah because his beginner squad suggestion was (and remains) class.
So just today, I want Arias, Kondogbia, Aurier, Ben Yedder and Van Dijk.
oh and to clarify i mean 250k to play with for an entire team
