That futbooster app is quality... been looking for something like that for a long time as I’m so **** at getting my team full chem.

Futbin has a similar feature. Very handy!

Mr Moon · 19-05-2021 03:55PM

Caved and done the Bundes guaranteed TOTS SBC, out pops Coman, not what I wanted

There's a little chemistry button in the squad builder. Think it could be a premium feature though.

They released the bundes guaranteed sbc again today.

Fodder going to be through the roof with so many desirable sbc’s going on.

Giving the bundes a miss altogether as hoping for a good icon sbc Sunday and we should get a united showdown or rttf sbc before the Europa league final next Wednesday

I haven’t even done the first Bundasliga Guarantee and now they dangle another one in front of me. Literally there is too much going on in this Bundasliga promo - off the top of my head I want to do the two Guarantees, Topsoda, Wama and Bellingham but realistically I suspect 3-4 of these ill fail to do due to lack of time and fodder

I sure hope they do. Probably Greenwood again. They've really put two fingers up to the PL this season.

83+ X5 gets Sabitzer
Tots pack- gets Sabitzer.

Yeah I just about managed to scrape together enough fodder in the club to do Waman + Bellingham. Had to use the 90+ TOTS fodder I had and the 83s :pac: next to nothing left now. Would do the guaranteed if I had enough fodder.

Thinking of running something like this for the weekend.

All the untreadabe are marked with a tick so only need to get sancho and do the two sbc for Bellingham and the cb.

If I don't like Haaland I can try Muller up front with a hunter card his stats look great.

Osmosis Jones · 19-05-2021 07:31PM

Mostly just doing swaps stuff but having fun with this team of cards I like in Rivals

I think they’re just being very clever, prem came first, didn’t give much in the way of content.

Superb content for la liga and probably even better for bundes, people start shift towards bundes teams.
Then a united card for the final, a chelsea and city one for ucl the following week, plus probably more during ultimate tots and those who went bundes start getting tempted back to shiney juiced up prem cards.

Haaland is absolutely awful this year. They really done him dirty.
You’d be better off playing with 10 men than having the 11th being Haaland.

I know I've read hahaha I want to try him tho to see if I can get any use from him. I got him in the 85 pick so I may as well give him a try.

Donno of sancho is worth the cost tho would I be as good going with the cheaper alternative and get lewandowski instead

Lord TSC · 19-05-2021 08:26PM

Used Haland a bit today.

He's falling foul of the "He's not Ronaldo" issue for me. Same as others.

He's big, tall, strong. If you're knocking balls constantly into the box, he'll get on the end and absolutely bang them in.
But I'd imagine anyone who wants a pacy, skillful striker will be disappointed. He's one dimensional. If you play to his strenghts, he's great, but he probably needs you to play a specific style.

The problem with the game though is that shielding the ball just doesn't work as it should with bigger players.

I remember back around 2010, I used to clip long balls to my strikers and often use someone like him. Flick on headers to the others or in and pass.
Loads of crosses as everyone takes the inside front.
I entered a tournament for the WC 2010, I ended up with Slovenia who's only good player was an 80 odd Giroud type and I walked the tournament.
Wouldn't be doing that anymore.

It's just atrocious trying to play like that now, they get the ball through you and then the crosses are miserable and if you are lucky enough to tick all the boxes the headers go straight far too often.

The engines due a big overhaul, they're using this one for years now.

I think like 2k, theres been such little innovation in sporting games the last 7 or 8 years as we used to have from 1996 to 2014 where a big change would come every few years.

The same engines are being rehashed across the board with minor tweaks.

I can’t even throw him into a damn sbc as my young fella is now fixated on him after I sold Puskas.
I tried to use him for the tots one today and he started crying ffs.
I need Puskas back so I can get rid of Haaland.

This is too funny hahahaha.

19-05-2021 09:14PM

Did the Roussilon objective and both the Tapsoba and Showdown Zagadou SBCs. Bundesliga defenders look unreal. Not sure whether to do Mbabu or not, he looks ridiculous but I have that untradeable Baku and could also buy Mukiele for cheaper. Anyone done him?

dmigsy · 19-05-2021 09:29PM

Couldn't resist blowing all my coins on getting Lewa back. Gold Davies for now, hopefully have enough to get RTTF version at least tomorrow.

Boulders8 · 19-05-2021 09:44PM

Did the first of the Bundasliga TOTs guarantee and came away with Muller- happy enough with that.

Came across a old list the other day I made for FIFA 20 and what TOTs I was packing them:

First 3 last year were Henderson J, Gerard Moreno and Davies - this year it’s been Son, Benzema and Muller so an improvement in my book.

Things went a bit south in the Seria A and Lique 1 Guarantee though with an 88 and 89 so hoping for more of this years luck this time round

RedRochey · 19-05-2021 09:49PM

Was there no PL young player of the year SBC last year?

Put your young lad into an SBC and be done with it lol. What age are we chatting Blazer?

But he has that perfect chem link to Blazer, can't underestimate the value of that.

Hasn’t been announced yet I’m pretty sure. Same with POTY.

Think my next target is TOTS Suarez or Benzema. Came up against them in 3 of the 5 games I played and Jesus they tore me a new one. Also Bellingham and Waman are very good... Enjoying using them so far and managing to score goals but still getting battered in div 1.

He’s 6

First time he’s shown an interest in Fifa and Puskas was his favourite. When we started playing soccer first he was roaring Puskas as he scored a goal etc.
Lovely to see in fairness:)

BrentMused · 20-05-2021 08:33AM

If anyone like me has completely rinsed their club and barely has a gold or common rare under 83, it might be worth cycling through upgrades. I don't even have enough to do Marquee Matchups now FFS :pac:

Put 11 unwanted bronze cards into the bronze upgrade which gives you 2 silvers.

Do this 6 times and you obviously get 12 silvers.

Put 11 silvers into the silver upgrade and you get 3 common gold players.

If you want rares, you can repeat and put 11 of the above common golds into the gold upgrade for 2 rare golds.

It's a long and arduous process but if you are struggling for common or rares it may be worth a go as I would guess most people have near 1,000 bronzes that will never see the light or day or sell.

Beats paying 1,400 for a rare gold anyway and there's a small chance of packing something half decent for fodder, but at worst you'll turn your useless bronze players into golds that you can use for upgrade picks during TOTS.

93 Hummels
88 Otamendi
91 Silva

89 Coates
95 Neuer
89 Oliviera

Very happy to get Neuer. Had been planing on buying him anyway, and had said on here about giving him a whirl.

Tradeable Sabitzer, and an untradeable Grimaldo in WL packs too. Took the Red Hummels too, and can use the other Hummels I have now to finish Tapsoba.

Mr Moon · 20-05-2021 09:11AM

G2 Rewards:

92 Sabitzer
93 Hummels
88 Otamendi
91 Andre Silva

90 Lacroix
92 Pedro Goncalves
88 Baku
91 Andre Silva

Gave Lacroix a miss as Goncalves looks like a great super sub.
