It's only fair when Fellaini knocks out 5 opposition players a game and gives them concussions with his elbows

His 90 physical stats and his high work rate are quality, I played against him loads, he was always all over the midfield bossing it, so I signed him, I've just got kante aswell as he's got more pace.

I think the best strategy you can apply to trading is this:

Buy low, sell high.


You're welcome.

Wednesday is a good day to buy. As is any other time special packs come out as more are opened then so there's more players on the market. Friday evening is a good time to sell.

You could also watch matches as they happen/keep track of who's scoring and then buy a load of who does well. Then if they get an IF the following Wednesday their price rises for the next few days because their base version is out of packs

Never been able to do a 3 ATB formation. Even when the 352 was overpowered as hell back in...fifa13? I couldn't use them

Played a few games last night safe to say 3 ATB isn't for me managed to scrape promotion needed 3 points from 4 games took all 4 games! But my god i conceded a ridiculous amount of goals need to swap things around today also Carroll was garbage Rondon was a much better option up top

Some FUT Champions reward info. I think I'll probably get into either Gold 2 or 3 unless I get screwed over in matchmaking.

This weeks TOTW. IF Costa ruined my plans for the team I was gonna make for this weeks FUTChampions ;(

 

[Relentless]

On the plus side I bought a OTW Giuliano for 22k the other day. Saw his stats how well he's doing so sure to get an IF before long and 5star skill Brazilian is always going to be in demand

 

[JimJams]

I thought about getting his OTW but even his TOTS would cost fuck all. The prices on these OTW cards is ridiculous. Giuliano is now at 100k on PS4, but nobody will pay that for his best IF.
It's like when Pogbas was going for 2.5mill! His TOTS wouldn't cost that and there's no gamble on him getting it.

On the Giuliano thing, he got a goal and an assist. Not usually enough to get an IF in the sub leagues. EA pushing the OTW cards a bit? The Brazilian has jumped up by +3 overall. Breel Embolo has gone up a whopping +5!
After the Swiss got 2 goals at the weekend he went from 30kish to 120k. Now he's confirmed he's at 200k.
He's never gonna be worth that.

I just sold his OTW for 100k so I'm happy with that

 

[JimJams]

Good move. I put in a few lowball bids for Embolo last night but missed out. At 200k I wish I'd done it now. But I just don't get why people are paying so much, they won't be worth it.

 

[JimJams]

Pjanic is probably the one card that looked worth a go on. He's about double his standard card and I'd expect his current price is what any first inform would go for anyway. And he's bound to get some.

Hype at a new card type.
Hype can make a tonne of difference in price, just look at the fact that Rashford has been going for like 6x what Wilson does despite them being about the same ingame.

 

[Relentless]

The team I was planning on using for FUTChampions anyway until Diego Costa got a bloody IF and now gone up 40k

 

[HarvSFC]

Too much Chelsea in it anyway. Better off without it.

 

[JimJams]

380k? Fuck me lad!
Get Pjanic!

 

[Relentless]

Another team I was considering.

Will try working Pjanic into one quickly but the formation isn't really good for hybrids so think it might end up being Serie A

 

[JimJams]

I just meant get the OTW Pjanic.

 

[Relentless]

I just meant get the OTW Pjanic.

Yeah but if I'm gonna spend that much I want to use him in my team.
Speaking of which

The midfield trio is tempting me in all honesty.


That's with the OTW Pjanic which basically eats up my entire coin total

 

[JimJams]

1 IF and you'll get it all back and more. And he's definitely getting one. Might be worth waiting til after the Internationals though to see if his price drops. Unless you think Bosnia will do Belgium over!

Looking at the OTW cards I think Pjanic and Milik are two that will get themselves a few IFs over the course of the season, but the latters price has already increased to 90kish. Gaitan is one that tempted me as he was so cheap, though he's shot from 35k to 50k now. But he's not a guaranteed starter, but with his normal card costing 20k anyway, he looks like 1 IF would make it worth it. Maybe down the line.

 

[Stevencc]

I've put this together for relatively little cost...

Perez is crap. Couldn't finish anything for me so I swapped him with Morata who scores goals for fun. But a good BPL Striker is Callum Wilson. Runs through defenders and can score with his feet and head.

 

[Stevencc]

Perez is doing pretty well for me so far.

Haven't really had the time to play much since I've bought it, only just breezed through to div 8. But I've got two starting XI's to rotate between, both feel on point. Fitness goes down like a biatch innit.

 

[Big Bird]

I've gone to shit in div 7. Switched to a back 4 which has made me more solid but can't score for shit. I've ditched wingers as they contributed next to nothing and gone for 2 CDMs and 3 CAMs playing off Origi or Benteke instead.

Vorm

Coleman
Williams
Van Dijk
Bertrand

Wanyama
Coquelin

Lallana
Alli
Barkley

Benteke/Origi

Everyone seems better than me at the moment, got a lot to learn!

The manager looks like he can't believe his luck!

 

[Relentless]

Currently at 41-4-20 in terms of WDL.

If only I didn't go on that 8 game losing streak

 

[JimJams]

Embolos OTW BIN has shot down to 90k and Giuliano has gone down to 45k.
You'd be pissed if you missed out on that cash in!

 

[Relentless]

I'd much rather a SIF or TIF Embolo if he gets one at ST.

Quite ok with selling my OTW Giuliano now. Even wrecking people with my fitness team atm which is a Bundesliga side where everyone cost 400-500coins.

Bring on FUTChampions.

So, what's the black cards all about then?

 

[Relentless]

So, what's the black cards all about then?

They upgrade to match the highest version card of that player that exists (so TOTW, TOTS versions and stuff)


Statwise anyway. Not positions as shown by Embolo.
