FIFA 21: Featuring the FUT 100

**Gray Fox** · 09-05-2021, 10:46 PM

Much, much more enjoyable weekend league this time around. After fixing the defence it was time to crack on and I did that well.

I was using this:

Lining up in a 4-2-2-2 in game. The obvious odd one out is Deco. He was the CDM with a licence to push forwards but he's really exposed at the back. He mostly ended up coming off for Vidal or Jones.
I ended up 17-4, much improved on the 17-11 of last week. The defence came in clutch many times.

Isak ended with 29 goals and 15 assists from the 21 games. He felt pretty damn good and he won a fair share of back post crosses. Bailey was his first full chem outing. He was okay, but his dribbling didn't feel that great with a maestro on. Perhaps he needs the finisher for me to properly judge.

The cards I really want to try now are Vazquez and Coutinho. After that, no idea where it goes from here.

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 09-05-2021, 10:51 PM

Got to 10-3 and thought I'd finish with my best 11 win finish. I was playing well and feeling really good so EA obviously decided to take a massive shit on me.

In comes a guy who was using directional nutmegs more than my previous 13 opponents combined and I have to walk at 4-0 down after 27 minutes. Then comes another sweaty prick abusing nutmegs.

Then another one using an all time Chelsea 11.

I then get matched up against someone and go 2-0 up. He then pauses and changes his tactics to constant pressure. He makes it 2-1 almost straight away as he puts a corner on Isak's head. I then hit the post just before HT but I'm all over him in the second half and I make it 3-1. He then comes back to make it 3-3 with 2 in the last 10 minutes. I then hit the post with the last kick of the game.

In ET his players are all dead and yet I keep fucking up passes and it goes to penalties. I miss my first two but I manage to get it to sudden death where I lose and then he sends me hate mail.

I was then matched up against a mega team with TOTY VVD, TOTS Dias & Cancelo, PIM Kenny, PIM Essien, POTM Messi & mid Pele. He takes the lead as Cannavaro runs into a man who had stopped instead of taking the ball (it was harder for him to not take the ball) but I end up making it 4-2. He pulls one back in the 73rd minute but I hold on.

Rough end to an otherwise really good WL run.

Edit: Oh and I really think that Cantona will be done this week. It means Puskas will be sold to fund him but I think with those coins, what I have in my club and from hammering out some upgrades I can get him done.

**Raoul Duke** · 10-05-2021, 05:14 PM

Holy shit there's a lot going on right now. Icon Swaps III with some banging options.

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 10-05-2021, 05:14 PM

**Danny** · 10-05-2021, 05:17 PM

Griezmann? Nice!

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 10-05-2021, 05:27 PM

As for the swaps I'm torn.

There are some amazing options in there but 9 swaps come in 39 days (assuming the drop the second half as soon as the new season drops) and realistically will I still be playing the game by that point?

I'm leaning towards the 81+, 83+ and 84+ packs and then dumping them into Cantona.

**Raoul Duke** · 10-05-2021, 05:31 PM

TOTS Kounde out of the 85+ PP. Other two options were shitters

**Danny** · 10-05-2021, 05:32 PM

I am realistically only getting 16 tokens (unless I play some WL) so I am thinking packs the first round (during ultimate tots) and then not sure what to do with the other 10. One weekend of WL gets PIM Best.

**Gray Fox** · 10-05-2021, 05:46 PM

I need to see the spreadsheet of the options. Worth nothing we only have 9 tokens now and they're a lot more grindy. 20 rivals games on top of the rest is a lot.

That 84+ pack would likely pay for Coutinho itself and has the chance of a TOTS in there. All of those Icons are very desirable too.

Correction. Its only the Prime Best.

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 10-05-2021, 06:31 PM

You can do all the packs, the PIM pack and the 92+ PIM Mid/Attacker pack for 18 tokens.

**Danny** · 10-05-2021, 07:57 PM

@Gray Fox

**Danny** · 10-05-2021, 07:58 PM

IMO, like Mahow said, it has to be second from bottom if you play WL

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 10-05-2021, 08:16 PM

Yeah that's what I'm going to do.

I'll open the packs this week and get Cantona done (still need to sell Puskas too but his price is sliding, I'm hoping it goes up a bit in a day or two when supply goes down) and then if I'm still playing when the next load roll around I'll have another 2 PIM's.

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 10-05-2021, 11:01 PM

Based out the Portuguese silvers and did the 83+ x25 pack.

Biglia baited me HARD. Not too shabby but nothing amazing, will help towards Eric though.

Edit: Went into some Rivals to start knocking those off and I lose my first match 2-1. My opponent had 3 shots total, 1 of which was on target... I turned it off after that.

**Danny** · 11-05-2021, 05:05 PM

96 Flashback Pique is out for an 85 and 86
Another TOTS Moments.
5 x 85+ pack
SuperLiga Guaranteed too

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 11-05-2021, 05:22 PM

I did the 5 85+ pack:

My luck has run out.

**Danny** · 11-05-2021, 05:24 PM

I did the one from yesterday and my best was Busquets

I did get Navas from an upgrade pack to make up for it.

Dont really have the fodder for this one but I will prob end up doing it.

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 11-05-2021, 05:30 PM

Worst part is that I obviously used resources that would have gone towards Cantona in the hopes of getting something even better.

Luckily I just did some PP's and got Courtois and Hazard back to back.

**Raoul Duke** · 11-05-2021, 05:30 PM

I'm saving fodder for the Guaranteed TOTS (assuming that's coming)

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 11-05-2021, 05:32 PM

I also got an ultimate pack for scoring in 200 Rivals games, no walkout with my best being two 84's.

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 11-05-2021, 08:50 PM

Also had another Ultimate and a Jumbo Rares from finishing the live friendly milestones, only walkout was a Keylor Navas.

**Yevrah** · 11-05-2021, 09:00 PM

That Llorente TOTS card alone is making me want to play this again...

TOTS 90 Aboubakar
TOTS 87 Fajr
TOTS 86 Bakasetas
87 Son
85 Koke

Some nice fodder there.

**Raoul Duke** · 12-05-2021, 11:16 AM

Packed my 3rd untradable Navas just now

**SincereTheRebel** · 12-05-2021, 04:41 PM

Ive been gifted the game for Pro Clubs purposes. Has there ever been a TTH version?

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 12-05-2021, 04:56 PM

IIRC there was a PS pro clubs but it didn't last long, the Xbox clubs lasted longer but not by too much.

This was years ago though, maybe 2016 or something.

**Danny** · 12-05-2021, 05:20 PM

yeah that was a long time ago.

If we were all on the same console

Todays content is La Liga TOTS for an 87 squad. 85 player pick pack is back for an 85 and then 94 Courtois for an 80 and 84.

**Danny** · 12-05-2021, 05:27 PM

Casemiro from the TOTS pack.

I think I will end up doing Courtois too. Thats a great price. Probably wont end up doing Pique though

**Danny** · 12-05-2021, 05:31 PM

I did the 81+ pack and got TOTS Fekir

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 12-05-2021, 05:53 PM

Moreno from the 85+ PP and Alba as my guaranteed.

I also got a TOTS Navas from an upgrade.

**Raoul Duke** · 12-05-2021, 07:16 PM

Nothing exciting from the 85+ pick but Alba from my Guaranteed pack. I've now replaced 3/4 of my La Liga defence with Alba, Kounde and Navas. Shame they didn't give me the one who'd actually be a big upgrade

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 12-05-2021, 07:37 PM

Moreno?

**Raoul Duke** · 12-05-2021, 09:09 PM

Cheeky Varane would have been nice. I don't ask for much

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 12-05-2021, 11:54 PM

Thought it was Varane

Not bad but not great.

Edit: Some of that went into Cantona's 88 with 2 IF segment and out popped a TOTS Fekir from the pack plus Harry Kane. Tradeable too so Fekir will be sold and Kane will go into another segment.

I've now packed 9 of the 15 La Liga TOTS players. Just missing Messi, Benzema, Suarez, De Jong, Casemiro and Varane.

Futbin says I have 1.72m left towards Cantona now. I still haven't sold Puskas (I'm hoping he rises to 1.6m for WL, if he does I'll use him this week probably and then sell him), I'll also have around 500k when Fekir sells although I want to buy TOTS Ruben Dias.

**Danny** · 13-05-2021, 01:11 AM

I hate Fekir. Selling him is the right call. He is out of my team and Cucurella is back in.

Fekir will go into Pique.

Also did the 85+ pick and got Vasquez.
@Yevrah, didnt you like Vasquez obj card last year? He would draw you in more than Llorente, he can do everything!

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 13-05-2021, 01:49 AM

Vazquez is a brilliant CM.

I was going to buy him but packed him and I've been using him there as I've switched in game to a narrow diamond. He's amazing.

**Danny** · 13-05-2021, 02:01 AM

I packed Navas and Casemiro but I am considering starting him at either RB or CM on 7 chem and dropping whoever he comes in for.

I quite like the free Correa on the right.

**Yevrah** · 13-05-2021, 08:19 AM

I did indeed love that Vazquez last year, this year's looks nutty!

**Gray Fox** · 13-05-2021, 11:40 AM

It seems the La Liga TOTS are hiding from me this week. I've opened both picks, both 85 x 5 packs, the 84 x 20 and the 83 x 25 packs. The only La Liga TOTS in any of them was Kounde who iss pretty useless for me. Still it got me Coutinho completed and I've got Big Willy from objectives in my team.

Did the guarantee and it was Navas, also pretty useless. My 2nd player pick did have Moreno in it, but I took Ter Stegen in case of anything big later. I've also done quite a few 80+ picks to exactly nothing back. A bit deflating.

I've got rewards for this week to come and I'll churn the ultimate packs into more picks. Vazquez is the one card I need to finish my team for this year now. He looks nuts. I'm not sure how much longer the grind carries on but we'll see. I may get lucky and get a card that makes me want to use it a lot.

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 13-05-2021, 11:49 AM

My red this week was Navas who will go into Cantona and I got nothing above an 84 in my packs.

However recycling them into the 80+ PP's got me another TOTS Kounde.

**Yevrah** · 13-05-2021, 12:21 PM

If this is the standard of 'free' stuff on offer I am so hyped for a no transfer market/no FIFA points game next edition.

**Gray Fox** · 13-05-2021, 03:30 PM

Rewards were interesting to say the least. Kicked off with the reds. First pick gave me a choice of Oblak, Navas, Davidson and some no mark. I already have Navas from the guarantee so I took Oblak. The next pick had Llorente and 3 Turks, so I took the Spaniard.

Onto the packs and in one of the tradeable packs I got a flare I've never seen before from a walkout. People who have followed me over my FIFA journey may know I have something of a "bucket list." Packing the likes of Messi, CR7, Mbappe etc have all been done. Even TOTY twice(both Ramos) but never an Icon. Well that changed today:

One of the worst ones going, but it's one ticked off the list. Sold for 210k. This pushed me very close to the price of Vazquez and I managed to get one. Fresh for 310k. That should be my team sorted for the rest of the game now.

I'll try and get that 81 x 25 open for the end of the La Liga TOTS. Not expecting anything in it, but it's the last real chance of a TOTS.

**Danny** · 13-05-2021, 03:41 PM

Nice!

Is that the moments for 210k? Thats madness.

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 13-05-2021, 03:47 PM

Is packing Neymar on the FIFA bucket list?

**Gray Fox** · 13-05-2021, 03:51 PM

It is indeed. Had I packed him in say February I'd have tried him out.

I've never heard of this "Neymar"

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 13-05-2021, 04:57 PM

Bought Ruben Dias for 320k to replace Cannavaro who has been getting progressively worse the last few weeks. He's been struggling to keep up with the faster attackers and he keeps giving away penalties when I use him to put pressure on an attacker.

Dias fits in like a glove chem wise and I'm hoping he brings what my team is missing.

**Sir Andy Mahowry** · 13-05-2021, 07:53 PM

That was rough but The King is here.

I also had 1.1m left so I bought 6 Jumbo Rares. Alejandro Gomez, TOTS Fajr, IF Sanchez and Bernardo Silva as my walkouts. 600k down the shitter...

**Raoul Duke** · 13-05-2021, 08:07 PM

Enjoy. He seems like the ideal type of striker you like to use. I had his 90 earlier and he was great

**Danny** · 14-05-2021, 01:43 AM

Ended up doing Pique as I had a few dupes (and each of the big 3 La Liga keepers sitting in my club). Moreno popped out of the second pack so that helps
