Could you go for headliners Gnabry instead?
That’s not a bad shout actually. I’d have to play him off chem, on the left cause I’ve Figo on the right, whom is a also a link to Darmian. Though I do worry about Gnabry’s sprint speed. Seems like I’d have to wait for a couple of upgrades before it’s decent.

Or could you go for something like this?

I’m really funny about using players off-chem. I couldn’t justify spending nearly 900k on Lewa and not using him on full chem. I seldom do it. Only with POTM Vini which I just use as a sub now.

I was thinking more along the lines of this until I get bored inevitably.

Makes sense and I can definitely empathise! I just think most of the TotY players are good enough with their base stats that I'm ok with using them off-chem slightly.
 
Lads. 80+ player pick in SBC. Get on it! Don't do the 84+ player one. It's crap. Perfect time to dump some useless cards.
 
Did the mid to prime icon SBC and packed mid Larsson ffs.

Luckily to soften the blow I effectively got the SBC done for free (had 200k ish worth of fodder and packed future stars Cunha in one of the reward packs) so it wasn't too bad, if I wasted the best part of half a million for him......
 
Has anyone tried the Vlahovic FS card? If I can get 160kish or so for SS Skriniar, I'd have enough to get him but not sure he's actually worth 600k+ when I compare him to HM Lautaro on futbin. Only real difference seems to be Vlahovic is 6'3 compared to 5'9 Lautaro. I know in game that means he'd feel less agile, but I also feel like it will mean he feels stronger, and with FS Damsgaard on the LW, HM Chiesa at CAM and moments Verde on RW I have enough dribbling and agility around him

Seems like every fresh/some old SBC and promo cards are completely cracked and Vlahovic FS is another one. Played against it in WL and it didn't miss a shot
 
Not liking gold Cr7 tbh. Feels pretty clunky. Thinking about completing lautaro Martinez but after Muriel debacle, I am not sure I want another SBC striker. Will pair him up with gold Neymar.
 
Made 50k whilst the VAR decision was being made in the Varane goal. Bought for 208k sold for 260 a minute later. :lol:

I absolutely loved Ronaldo golf card but I think he only suits certain players/styles. He’s still the best player I’ve used this year though.

I can’t for the life of me get used to his TOTY card. I scored 60 goals in 40 in divisions/champs with his gold card. Now I’ve only got 24 in 31 with his TOTY. :(

Funilly enough I had the same issue with his TOTY loan card in friendlies. I didn’t think he seemed as upgraded as I expected!

Blew my load too soon. He’s going for 345k now. :(

I think maybe because he’s already so cracked, it’s hard to notice that much of a difference? Don’t get me wrong he’s still getting goals it’s just that I feel like I need to play through him at all times since he’s by far and away the best player I have.
 
Did that weird SBC for previous FS with my last fodder and was hoping for Davies, got OTW Upamecano which was ok value I guess. Hopefully he'll get another upgrade or 2. Also got WW Guenduozi (sp?) as one of my choices but won't use him but all in all a decent SBC for me.

Just tried him, and did not like him one bit. Was so heavy, and never seemed to make any runs. Maybe he is good as a target man type striker, but compared to even RB Arnautovic he isnt worth the 600k price
 
Did you check futbin which chem card to use on him?

I was using catalyst for the pace and passing boost (doesnt need shooting boost on paper). I have just tried him again with engine and he is as broken as you said. 6 goals 2 assists first game in an 8-2 win.

Meanwhile in defence the HL Koulibaly with a double upgrade is just a brick wall. Have him paired up with moments Kjaer and they are about as solid a duo as I have ever had
 
15 goals in 6 games for Vlahovic in D1. 2 wins from elite now

It's insane that card. I've not got it but played against it and it didn't feel that far off TOTY Lewandowski. Which is another ridiculous card to play against.

They've done a good job of making non meta players more useable this year. I used the Jiminez card for a while and, whilst it wasn't overly fast or great at dribbling, one you got used to it you could bang goals in for fun.
 
Is De Gea POTM any good? Or worth it. Have both his required teams buitl already but holding to see if he's any good. I already have (Untradeable) Allison as my GK, so I don't want it to be a waste of players if I get him. Allison is very hit and miss for me.
 
So after doing lautaro Martinez and those scam party bag sbc, I now have zero fodder in my club. Played with lautaro in div 2 who is another garbage striker. Had to get back gold Cr7 and kante back and now I have 1000 coin left. I am not trusting anymore player reviews on new gen for PC.

Is PC new gen now? Who do you use for reviews?
 
Sorry I meant it is still old gen. Player reviews are not very helpful when comparing two different gen. The AI on old gen is garbage.
Ah alright fair. Yeah I’m on new gen but I’ve PS4 copy installed and the difference is night and day.

Lautaro is immense. What are you doing with him? Use hawk chem style, he finishes everything and is really good in build up play too
 
Decided to test my luck with those x2 mid/prime icon packs

First was prime Zanetti, absolutely useless considering I've got at least 5 RBs that are better. Put him immediately in the second one and out popped mid feckin okocha literally the worst icon possible.

Put mid okocha into Calvert-Lewin who is decent but What a truly awful 30 mins of fifa that was for me.

To be fair mate you’ve had enough luck to get a couple of rough draws. Those kind of pulls are all I’ve managed this year.

Yeh he’s brilliant for me. I bought TOTY Mendy but De Gea outperforms him for me. Great speed off his line and pulls off some decent saves. At this stage in the game though, everyone has such good attackers I’m not sure it matters who is in net!

That sounds concerning I was debating doing him soon as I’m not convinced by my strike options.

Yeah I bought TOTY Mendy earlier and he's a bit shit. Left in goals my gold Allison would never concede. Gonna try De Gea out.

Has anyone tried Damsgaard? Was thinking as a Felipe Anderson replacement. He's only about 40k.
 
Flashback Varane is colossal. Tempted to do Maldini now but not sure.

Yes I love him. Bought him friday when he was 120k so have lost a ton of coins on him, but he is so good. He has the glitchy dribbling like Abedi Pele, only issue I have is how far back he comes on defence. He is usually too far deep to get involved in counter attacks, which doesnt make sense given his work rates. But once he is in the opponents half he is magic and well worth the 40k he goes for now
