Nep's gone big on Twitter with a lengthy post about how league SBC's are now broken. We're not even out of Feb yet.

They do seem really expensive for not much reward. Everything has been turned down this year.
It’s killed the game for me really. Such a shame.
People are packing tomorrow’s informs already
Got Essien last night, then with the coins from selling all the shit I'd been using to complete the Swap objectives I bought SS Kondogbia and FS Emerson. First impressions on Essien aren't great, but I'm sure he'll be shit hot once I get used to him.
Going to need that 88 Fernandes to tank the WF 89 version.
Kent upgrade on the way
Militao has lost over 200k in value since Man City took the lead and the red...
Damn, I wish I had done Kent. He will be the most overpowered 84 now. Hoping for Wolfsburg, Sevilla and Sporting wins. I would love Porto to get a win but they need to turn it around against Leverkusen and I'm not confident about that.
I haven't logged on for the last two days now. The apparent death of the league SBCs have hit me hard
Finished Verstraete last night. Will have to look at Havertz (picked him up when I started) but I think it took my around 10 games for the other 16 teams. Only really trouble was Harit being dogshit. Even Padeborn silver went quicker.
Packed Shapeshifters Gueye in my FUT Champions rewards today. He looks an absolute beast for an 87 rated CB - I can't believe he's going for 30k or under on the market. He goes straight into my first owner Ligue 1 side. Also got a bunch of 83s and 84s, all of which are worth basically nothing for now. Hopefully they will be dropping a Mid Icon SBC or something that causes the prices to rise back up.
Gueye is a midget, that's why he goes for buttons.
They've been hacked.
Who has?
EA, by some group called Lizard Squad. Saw runthefutmarket and duckquack reply to it on Twitter.
Apparently they hacked it to unban Kurt, lol.
RW Ronaldo, CM Trent and CB Kante the predictions based on the new loading screen.
Matchmaking is disabled on some funny shit
Managed to finish off Acuna late last night. Needed 7 wins so it took a little while and I played against some real dregs of the community. I also came up against someone in Div 6 with the best midfield I've ever played against in TOTY Kante and Prime Moments Desailly. Seriously, I couldn't get a pass through and barely made a chance for myself, it was a little depressing how outclassed I was.
The worst was someone I faced when I required just one more win. I went 2-0 down to goals from POTM Neymar and POTM Ben Yedder and he immediately paused and made subs, bringing on Argentinians for the objective as I presume he thought I was going to be a pushover. Second half, I turned it around and dragged it back to 2-2 and I was all over him. A couple of goalmouth scrambles in the 80th minute with the ball so close to going in and he was out of there - instant connection loss even with the score at 2-2, just to stop any chance of me getting it done.
Moments Sane looks the cheapest he has been on this market slump. For anyone eyeing him
I sort of keep forgetting he's there and was planning to leave him to extend the life of the game beyond the usual game cycle, but I do like the look of him.
Loved his standard card in a central role. The combination of agilty and power is cracking.
Zakaria looks like a good card if a little expensive.
Objectives Bartra looks like worth grafting just for an SB
Zakaria far too expensive and irritatingly similar to Akanji. SBC's have been so dead of late.
Bartra is a brilliant centre back. Which is odd as you'll be putting a shapeshifer in the team only to shift him again.
You have a lot of options for CB in the Bundesliga. Given Zak is an off nation for an off team. I get why he is 200k. Kabak who has been a beast since his future stars card came out has been around 200k
This month has been mad. Akanji, Hummels, Kabak, Zakaria and Alabas S.S
Figure this weekend I will upgrade that Bundesliga player and do Bartra at the same time. Latter needs 8 wins vs the upgrades 6 but should be able to get 3/4 done together.
Have EA given any indication as to when the RTTF players will be upgraded?
I think they have now. It would be good if we got new players added now we are down to the final 16 next week
Anyone used Lucas RW?
WL is hard. People are defending extremely well. I have no space to operate at all, yet man can cut through my team easy work.
Did Zakaria & Kimmich sbc. Want to try something different so let's see how I try fit them in.
And with this new Ramos sbc I instantly regret doing those.
That Ramos is incredible. Even on 7 chem at CB
Yeah, that Ramos is filth and another card to work towards once the game cycle has stopped.
Hit level 30 today and took Akanji. Also finished Bartra while doing Moi Gomes update. 3 of the upgrade milestone players left to do, but I'll leave those for when they can be combined again with a season objective.
3/4 wins needed to secure Squad Battles Elite 3, so I'll polish those off and that'll be it for the weekend.
Oh and Messi and Ronaldo now have 1,000 goals between them. Messi on 493 from 371 games and Ronaldo on 537 from 452 games.
Akanji does look sick. Surprised they released so many Bundesliga CB options.
I am like 1k away from Akanji and finished the Bundes milestone upgrade yesterday. Think I only squeezed out one of the Bartra objectives so might have a look at those today.
I think I haven't played for a week now.
The league SBCs were keeping me into it. I need them to be fixed or a new patch to drop which changes the gameplay.
It's so hard now it's bonkers. People are so good defensively.
Calling @Yevrah Flashback Rooney
Toggle Spoiler
So because of problems with EA servers this weekend, there were problems playing games at their official eSports qualifiers. Players couldn't invite each other to games.
So they literally made them play rock-paper-scissors to decide the winner and are using that as an official result. I thought it had to be fake at first but sweet jesus.
Rooneys card with basic chem has 5 90+ stats
Just done him, all from what I had in the club, bar buying a couple of 82's. He looks the bollocks. Now to fit him in.
Upgraded Kent looks outrageous.
Anyone else finding the servers to be absolute bollocks at the moment?
Yeah, they're really quite bad.
Another duplicate untradeble Thiago and Lucas Hernandez from some of the packs I this weekend.
Might finish Bartra and throw them into a leg of Ramos this week. Tempted to hold on though in the event there is a shout for Bruno POTM.
