Did you pack Drogba or decide to buy him?

I loved his card in FIFA 20. Ended up getting him in one of the icon upgrade SBC's and was gutted at first but really enjoyed him.

Bought him, was really enjoying having a target man next to Keane (before this it was Morientes) and needed someone to link with Fofana too. Past couple years on the side I've done an Ireland/Japan and then Ireland/Mexico team so this year I'm thinking Ireland/Ivory Coast.

Yeah when I joined Elite division, starting at 1800 it had me in the top 30% of the division, which just doesn't make sense.

According to the leaks there are 3 Ivorians in Team 2 so that's a nice start :D

17 different types of packs earned this week from rewards, objectives and SBCs. Will open them all for Rulebreakers second team after 6pm tonight.

I look forward to quoting this message later to let you all know the best pull was Robin Gosens.

I'll be all over that leaked Kessie card!

Cyrus · 05-11-2021 2:39pm

Starting to really see the best of Neymar now as a cam on stay forward in 4231 behind morientes .

Adamcp898 · 05-11-2021 2:57pm

Anybody know of a less painful way to do squad battles? I know in 20 there used to be a way to do a fake cross in the opponents half and so long as you stood still the AI never pressed you so you could go afk until the match was over.

Up to Div 2, rank 2.

while there’s some toxic people in terms of celebrations, I’m actually finding the vast majority are trying to play fast, attacking football. Which suits my game down to the ground. It’s actually fun, end to end stuff.

I'd say that card will be worth a fortune as everyone with a Serie A team will want it.

Best I've got is rubber band your controller so you're doing ball rolls in a circle in or near your own box, doesn't work perfectly but even at worst you usually get about 15-20 in-game minutes in peace.

This does feel like the most enjoyable gameplay in recent FIFAs, which is good fortune because other aspects of the game (market, SBCs) have been pretty terrible so far.

Mr Moon · 05-11-2021 5:48pm

Tempted to go with this for the weekend. I can buy Mendy and craft Verrati. 4231 in game.

Adamcp898 · 05-11-2021 6:07pm

Connection ridiculously bad for anybody else?

Rock Lesnar · 05-11-2021 6:21pm

How is that the keepers in this game can make ridiculously fast reactive saves but hit a shot straight at them and they find ways to dive every way around the ball to concede a goal

I just battered a team, and won in ET from a shot, straight at him, easy save but he practically ducked to let it in

Rossi IRL · 05-11-2021 6:24pm

2nd week in a row that I got absolutely nothing....dead red picks and discard totw pack and discard 100k pack

Qualified for next week so I must enjoy the pain

Aguero and Dybala in the same pack being the highlight.

And my beloved Gosens is the Rulebreakers player pick so I couldnt even pack him. 😭

awec · 05-11-2021 8:16pm

I wouldn't mind that Kulusevski card.

It’ll be the one week I don’t pack him too after getting him at least twice a week since the game started.

Guarantee I'll pack the La Liga right back or something. Untradeable too.

Rock Lesnar · 05-11-2021 9:01pm

My god, tried to do the reece oxford objective, an utter sweatfest in there, 4 matches im 1 up, through on goal and my opponent pulled the plug

05-11-2021 9:12pm

Did anyone see the Southampton goal there?... reminds me of a lot of goals I concede in this game 😂.

Was always going to swap VVD out so between getting Varane and wanting to upgrade Sterling/Robertson, I was able to go French... gave me a way to use Fekir as well.

Im not overly fond of Barella unless I play 4222 but I'm mainly using a 41212 and using him as a winger.

Also not finding Salah that good up front, think the stats are ok but he misses loads. May need to make him a winger.

If he was tradeable I'd sell Di Natale and get Ronaldo in.

I'll have to just make that change at some point though, maybe even find another Italian central player.

I know most are using Mendy but after checking the stats for the 3 French options, that Marseille lad had the most stats with a stab at an upgrade if they win their next game(likely win the last if they get the next).

I could also get Diaby, but it doesnt give me any more chem over Dembele.

Mr Moon · 05-11-2021 9:29pm

Oooh just packed my 2nd tradeable Son from MM, only worth half of what he was the first time I packed him but that makes my decision to do Verrati easier.

(I also got Lloris)
