Near 5m. I was ready to full send if it was close to 3m but absolutely not now. I instead treated myself to an 89+ prime pack and got dupe Hugo Sanchez (yay!)

How is Ederson? I’ve got him but haven’t switched him in yet for chem reasons but I’m tempted.

Here’s the team now, was so pumped to get Prime Henry in this icon SBC since he’s probably my favorite player of all time. He’s so good, the lankiness seems to really mess with defenders.



Welp just packed gold Mbappe from the 80+ player pick so this will change



Will replace Xabi Alonso with the leaked Kante SBC once it’s out I think which should get to full chem

Swedish style? No.
Yugoslavian style? Of course not.
It has to be Zlatan-style.

Ederson is good, I replaced gold Courtois with him and the extra pace coming off the line and passing ability is really useful now we're getting into the sweaty part of the game cycle

Did the Kante SBC and goddamn that guy is great. Wiped out all of my fodder but I managed to play two games with him tonight and he totally dominated the midfield.

I did a bunch of SBCs and objectives and got handed tons of fodder and Prime Baggio. I played 7 games with him and just don't really like him. He was competing for the sole CAM spot on my squad and sadly the 90 rated Grealish card beats him out for me. He's been relegated to super-sub status alongside Bale and Di Maria.

Current squad starts at 4-2-3-1 for full chems then switches to 4-1-2-1-2 (2) in-game,

Tribute to my favorite striker this year, base Haaland. His card reminds me of some of the insane Modeste cards from some FIFAs ago.
I bought him for 27k and racked up 299 goals in 299 games, all online div rivals.
During my SBC/obj roundup, I packed Haaland. Being the cheapass I am, I decided to sell the card and replace it with the packed one. RIP bro,

Anyone have any clue if the FUT market is going to continue to crash? I'm going to be away for 3 weeks soon and contemplating selling everything but not sure if I'll screw myself for the endgame

Nowhere to go but down. Gold Mbappe feels like the signpost for prices and he’s been a one way train lower.

With this year winding down I’m pretty curious what they’re gonna do with EA FC next year. I’m sure they’ll just do the same poo poo because it’s working but it’d be interesting if they tried to do something new.

just as a heads up that new tammy abraham sbc is insane value already and if they win he'll get 5star/5star. if you also did diaby no matter which way the semi goes you'll have an absolutely insane player. both will also probably get a tots but whoever gets the upgrade will have a better card than the tots will be (unless EA goes crazy giving weakfoot/skill move upgrades for tots)

i converted from playing manager mode to fut recently and finally scored a goal cool enough i felt compelled to post it on the internet

from down 3-2 and with 10 men, to this winner from henry to bergkamp

So I got 97 Leao in my first pick. Then I got the choice between TOTS Hernandez and TOTS de Bruyne. I love KdB but Leao on full chem in my team was too tempting so I grabbed Theo.

Team looks like this now.



Last thing I need for now is TOTS Barella.

My current squad after finishing the Alba SBC,

I start in 4-1-3-2 formation to have full chem then change to 4-1-2-1-2(2) in game. I loving love these late game SBCs. Saliba is the only player I've bought, all the rest are untradeable from either packs (Kane/Beckham) or Objectives/SBCs. And Bale/Mullin completely dominate for late game subs. I had Lukaku but Mullin has been outperforming him so Lukaku went towards Alba. Milner/Ozil/Desailly have also been fantastic as late game subs.

Similarly glad for SBCs recently. Changed 7 of my starters after a disappointing 8-12 last weekend.

Also everyone should do the Milinkovic-Savic sbc, he's also cheap and is probably the all around best cm/cdm in the game and will likely remain so no matter what kind of overpowered ultra late in the year sbcs get added. He's just so incredible massive.

I’ve went from having behind the curve CMs to having SS Zambrotta, M-Savic, Busquets, Rodri and TOTS KDB within a week. Good problem to have.

I had a fifa itch and bought a EA Play subscription. Game is quite fun, the hypermotion stuff looks cool. I've seen animations that I've never seen before and sometimes players just clatter into each other and it looks funny.

Played some FUT draft to get a feel of the good cards in game, and lmao, TOTS Mbappe is a cheat code. Fast, strong, agile, great finishing... I feel like he's better than prime R9 I had 2 Fifas ago.

I've been doing the bronze SBC into the silver SBC into some other SBC into the 80+ player pick SBC. Got a ton of good players that way. Nice way to kill the time at work.
Sometimes it lets me choose between 4 81-82 players, but most of the time there's a 87-89 in there, even got some 90+ ones. Not bad at all imo

If you want to do the Zidane SBC, you better hurry up
The 84+ x 10 SBC ends in about 10 hours and I'm not sure they're gonna add it again. That SBC is infinitely repeatable and gives you a ton of high rated cards. Do that SBC, use some of those cards do do another 84+ x 10, save some fodder for Zidane. Rinse and repeat.
And maybe you even get a 99 rated Messi, who knows??

EDIT: I was wrong, they re-released the SBC!
