(+) Yeah! (+)

got a season pack and got my first walk out from it, casemiro lol

niiice, i have a main la liga team so dis will help, his pace is meh doe
---

Big Cas is shit. sell him
---

He's untradeable ._.
---

rip
---

Now that I'll have a decent team, I need to learn how to play lol. I think playing all those squad battles made me a better passer but I gotta practice skill moves. I noticed these pros are very patient in the box. They will fake-shot, ball roll, drag back, etc until they get a perfect shot. Whereas I tend to see the slightest opening and go for it. My problem isn't moving the ball up, its creating chances.

I need to watch more pros tbh, I feel like they play the game very differently compared to us mid-gold level players.

Yeah. Gotta be slow and patient going forward in this game

I've been holding off on SBCs this past week since they've all been too expensive.

What do you think about Mata?

Loving my defense with keane/allan/scream pique/lenglet.

I'm liking gomez' dribbling. Dybala has better dribbling overall but gomez has better balance and agility and its noticable. I feel like I can make quicker cuts and changer of direction. And the pace is noticable as well. I think its worth the upgrade. Cost me 97k, dybala was in the low 50s.

I think I've played like 6 games with my new squad and have 5 wins 1 draw, up to division 7 now.

Last year I think I got to division 5 but couldn't go past that in FUT. But before I even started playing FUT I was playing regular online seasons alot and got to division 2 with PSG.

Yeah, small forwards with agility is the meta. I'm gonna finish getting Pep tonight then my squad will be this.

You like konate over lenglet?

Nvm, looks like Leipzig is gonna advance

Not right now but Leipzig are top of the group and should win their first knockout at least so should upgrade pretty decently. Plus I need some pace next to Pique
---

I'm doing small time investing to just play around and get some experience.

I bought 4 Chilwels at 1k each this morning. He's going for 1.5k now.
I also bought a Kane at 24k. I think he's at 25k right now.
Also packed a Rashford that I'll try to sell on friday night

Both Chilwel and Kane are TOTW locks

This might be dumb but I just bought 4 Allan's for 22-23k, hoping to sell them thur night for maybe a few grand profit

I need a fut financial advisor lol. I know runthefutmarket deals with high priced trading, but his advise was don't be liquid mom to we'd, buy up cards even if ur uncomfortable, sell em thur night and Fri.

Between all my transfer list cards I probably have about 200k investments, and I have about 30k sitting in the account. Again I'm completely new to trading. I never did this last year

There are people who solely trade to earn coins instead of playing, just spend their days watching the market and shit but i honestly wouldn't be able to do that lol
---

I see the fun in that tbh, I'm just sick of grinding for coins. It's getting irritating

I started doing bronze pack method, my second pack I got a bronze gold player that sold for 4k

Pochettino :(
---

This year they're doing everything they can to fuck over investors/traders. You really gotta know what you're doing.

That POTM Gnabry looks good
---

The other thing I was thinking is just waiting til thxgiving night to sell off Allan, Kane, and Rashford just cuz so many fuckers are gonna be on I feel like the demand will be high

5 years was long enough

They'll drop on thanksgiving

Only the ultra meta cards rise on event weekends
---

wow can't believe luis suarez is sooo cheap right now lol
---

cause he sucks in this meta

slow and clunky

What are your thoughts on:
scream laxalt vs douglas costa (both deadeye)
https://www.futbin.com/20/compare/43633?chem=deadeye&pchem=10&schem=100

and LB - Sandro vs Alba vs if Telles (with gold militao as opposed to lenglet) vs if hernandez vs other?

This is actually my exact team right now:
https://www.futbin.com/20/squad/10654682

I haven't bought a RB or LB yet. I think Semedo is probably best at RB. Cant decide on a LB.

Man, that laxalt always rips me, I hadn't actually looked at his stats. Awesome.

IF Telles > Alba > Sandro
---

With telles u think it's better to go with gold militao or gold lenglet

Militao for the link
---

I'm so annoyed, I've been eyeballing telles for a bit but his price keeps rising. Was 110 when I last looked, now its 150. If it goes to like 120 I'll grab it.

You think thiago silva is worth the 85k for the sbc? I can get him to 8 chemistry with loyalty and manager.

Or is it more worth it to do the Konate sbc for ~110k

Cant wait to start doing WL. My average finish last year was 15-17 wins.

My first one will be on thanksgiving weekend. What should I expect? I imagine fifa is gonna be a shit show.

Also I know its expensive but if you put Kante at CM, swapped Ronaldo and Pep, and put Henry at LF instead of Coman, you'd have 9-10 chemistry everywhere and you'd have Kante and Henry instead of Coman and Matuidi.

I got no coins at all. Only way I can make any changes is getting lucky on rivals rewards or buying packs and I'm not buying any more packs this year (except at TOTY). Or sell CR7 but I want to keep him all year. This is probably the last year he'll be really elite, next year he should be downgraded to 88-89 really. I watch a lot of Serie A (as you know), and he really doesn't offer much.

New patch looks interesting. Buffing passing and shooting, and trying to fix player switching. Hope it's good.

So I'm still shopping around for a good LB+CB combo, I came about this card:
https://www.futbin.com/20/player/42955/marcos-acu%c3%b1a

With shadow he's 92 pace, 90 defense, 87 phys, he's 83 agility and 87 balance...for only 15k

Ronaldo and Messi have been the 2 most OP players in this game for the last 5 years at least and I rarely use either. Even when I didn't play fut and just did online seasons, I never picked barca or Madrid. I don't think I can appreciate how OP they really are. Ijuat last year I started using neymar and he was damn amazing to play with. If I end up saving up enough, neymar is my goal.

Ready for Mourinho? XFD

I got ter stegen in one of my 25 win squad battles pack lol, awesome
---

Bro, u have the best pack luck, I dunno how. U got neymar last year

And also, I've been grinding SB every week and I barely passed the 50 win mark last weekend lol

Rumor has it mourinho is gonna try to get bale. I know bale is sorta over the hill but that'd be pretty awesome. Son, Kane, Bale, with Erikson, Sissoko, Alli. It'll be fun to watch.

Yes i've packed Neymar like 3 times and a few icons too throughout my years lol
---

Acuna is sick, has some of the highest in game stats in the game
---

Honestly the more I use scream pique the less I like him. At first I loved him but mostly against nubs. He's kinda clunky. Since he'll be part of my team for a long time still as I have other upgrades to make first, I'll probably put shadow on him.

the telles price inflation is crazy. Nick (runthefutmarket) thinks it'll keep rising tomorrow and friday even though its already inflated. he's trying to get in on it at 145k. Currently its 160k. I'm really liking this guys videos. Even though I cant afford most of the shit he's talking about, Im understanding the market alot better. Anyways, Ima wait on this telles card, I'm not going past 110 to buy it.

Also, looks like theres no cap on chemistry styles, shadow is going for 13k.

Also, tried Laxalt versus costa. Its hard to decide on who is better. Costa feels quicker and more agile, even though laxalt has better agility with sniper. I think cuz costa is shorter he just feels smoother. Costa also has noticably better speed, although laxalt is usually good enough. But finishing wise, laxalt is much better. Costa's shots were sorta unpredictable. With laxalt, I'm putting much more in than before. When it comes to their shooting attributes, laxalts finishing is 94 with sniper and costa is 79 with deadeye. Big difference that I think makes Laxalt better.

Yeah Nick is easily the best content creator imo. He's amazing at trading, but amazing at playing as well - it's usually one or the other. I think he was like 139-11 in the first 5 weekend leagues this year. Basically pro-level.

I just saw his rant video posted about a month ago how theres a bunch of pros in a secret discord that screen snipe him or whatever and basically end up matching up against him to prevent him from going 30-0. Its worth checking out.

But yea he keeps it real. Love how he trashes EA constantly.

Yeah I watch every one of his videos haha. that was a great vid
---

people are doing the 5k packs for hunter and shadow cards lol, might not be such a bad idea tbh
---

Meh, i know bronze pack method definitely works but its a grind. if i'm bored i just do it. I check my phone every few hours and keep listing the bronze garbage for 200 and it does actually sell. And sometimes you get bronze players worth 500, and I got one worth a few thousand.

Also, I just started L1 dribbling, I didn't realize it was so OP til now lol. Against nubs they can't even touch me.

Try L1 +ball roll

yup thats my preferred ball roll.

This fucker online....I'm up 1-0 (i didnt watch the replay), but I know i'm dominating him he can't get past my mids (keane and allan) I'm dominating possession. He gets a goal kick and does a simple pass right into my defender who has a clear shot at the net. I actually didn't shoot it thinking ima be a bro and let him have a mulligan, so I juts fucked around with skill moves and his goalkeeper got me. Next possession he scores and watches the entire replay. I then immediately score again and watch the entire replay.
