Remember kids no matter how bad your pack luck, nothing is quite as bad as having this happen.... Castro blind player pick

Love that he thinks his chat is winding him up too and he mocks them until he realises his mistake.

Feel like I’m playing Tekken with all these button mashed for skill moves :pac: looks very good though, basically a stronger fake shot.

God Castro is so ****in annoying.
But he only does it to bring in the viewers. The younger fans love him apparently.
He was giving Marshal tips on increasing his subscribers and told him he needs to overreact more etc and hype everything up.
I don't blame Castro..he's only feeding into his audience and what they like.

That's honestly the same with almost all big twitch streamers. Any of the super popular ones tend to put on a show to keep people interested, when you consider peoples attention spans nowadays it does make sense. That's why they are all super obsessed with engagement with the chat and doing polls etc.

There are plenty of good streamers out there that don't overreact in this way but unless they have something really special they won't hold the interest of the casual viewer.

I’d do it as well if I was on >6 figures a year for FIFA :pac: I don’t tend to watch streamers at all... usually just stick to YouTube and RTFM or Inception/Marshall if I need a review on a player.

He's a tool.

But it worked out well for him, the amount of views etc he'll get off this is well worth it.

Might be a blessing in disguise, if there were actual usable players we'd end up with 3x 76 rated picks. This way there is a chance to snag some high rated fodder.

oh yeah...I'll leave base icon sbc off till tomorrow then

As for Garrincha...I was originally delighted to get him but he can't unseat Alessandrini.
His workrates are awful and you really have to work to get the little bastard to move so he's been benched.

oh that's a shame, have you tried him as a CAM? Maybe the work rates wouldn't impact him as much in that role.

But yeah Alessandrini is unbelievably good, I still hate myself for missing his SBC.

yeah he's ok at CAM but better as a supersub really.
Although I do have freezer Aouar as well as a sub.

Calvin · 30-12-2020 05:59PM

As much as I wanted to love alessandrini, I couldn’t get him going at all. Played CAM, ST and RF but he just didn’t do anything and missed sitters constantly. Bench player now and I hardly play him as Van Bergen is miles better.

Yeah he blows hot and cold for me. Still better than Garrincha.

Rock Lesnar · 30-12-2020 07:25PM

Lads im thinking of buying €20 worth of points, if i were to buy packs, would the 35k mega pack be the best? Or 50k packs

Flashback Ben Arfa... ooh yeah.

Careful now, those are the same workrates as Garrincha...

TOTW not as bad as feared. Red Rashford would be nice....

I know

But I’ve always loved his cards especially as I’m a magpies fan.

Iago · 30-12-2020 08:40PM

Just packed Messi in a ‘2 rare player 75+ pack’ reckon that’s a winner.

Not sure he fits in my team though

Mr Moon · 30-12-2020 09:06PM

Did we get pre order packs on Sunday? I’m saving packs and can only see the first 30 packs, I’ve checked the web app but none say pre order just not sure if it would say that on the web app.

No, none got last Sunday.

I eventually picked up fifa 21 as another lockdown was looming and figured I’d get it now to get the icon swaps.

I’m very much going at it as a casual, not going to trade or anything so no super teams like I had the last 3 years.

Headliners starting Friday I see so toty will be another week or 2 away

I've done this Hogey, picked it up a few weeks ago, played a couple of nights but other than that, it's turd.

Edit: also, just pulled the wired connection and went onto wireless for an unrelated reason ...... the speed up lag is still there over wireless, what a company. Disappointed I bought it tbh.

Haha thanks, I blame Lord TSC for my return, when I seen him talking about getting Cantona the other week it gave me a craving to start playing again

Ah sure if it can keep me occupied a bit for this next lockdown I’ll take it. Def not getting sucked in like other times.

They always come back

I fully expect your TP to be over 5m by the time TOTY rolls around

I did fill my transfer list with the Inter version of Joao Mario before my 10 hour trial expired as he had just got a transfer, they’re all selling at 5-6k now so at least it gives me a few hundred k for a starter team

But other than that I’ve no big plans, it’s too time consuming

Osmosis Jones · 31-12-2020 01:20AM

Just put together that Base/Mid Icon SBC...
