What would you expect these guys to rise to in the coming months?

I purchased a lot of Azpilicueta's at around 13k last week which seemed way to good to be true.

My only worry is that so many people are getting the TOTW packs from Champs rewards now, which were unachievable for most last year (myself included). Also, the drop rate for IF's in packs seems hugely buffed this year too.

Don't know what your chemistry situation or budget is, but Koulibaly or even Skriniar would be a huge upgrade on Chellini.

Theo Hernandez at LB.

If you're using OTW Locatelli as a purely defensive CM, gold Kessie would be better for a few thousand coins.

Honestly I think I'd just switch completely to some form of Serie A squad and for the coins you have you could put something lovely together.

Normal Koulibaly is 10k and arguably the best gold CB in the game right now. Kessie is 3.7k and miles better than OTW Locatelli, gold Barella is 2k and much better than OTW Saul. I've used Sancho a bit as I packed him early on and have found Chiesa (2.4k) to be way better as another example.

Casemiro could be used to get Vinicius in on 9 chem.

Something like the below maybe? Everyone on full chem. Have Casemiro as CDM in game, Barella box to box, Dybala CAM.

You're looking at about 70k due to the cost of Dybala and Casemiro:

Yep you can, you can play any day during the week apart from if you are competing in FUT Champs during the weekend (until you finish your 20 games).

Good thing about trying on Monday is there's plenty of time to build up another 1500 for another stab at it during the week if you fail to qualify (although be mindful there's a limit on the amount of entries you have per season).

What does the term "discard" mean in this context?

5-1 in the playoffs and gave the last 3 away.

Again started 0-1 after conceding a last minute winner, but knuckled down and got it together. It was an Irish bloke with the St Pats jersey with a squad called Larkview who beat me if it was anyone on here? 🙂

There's no way ELO is in use for the playoffs and again I'm convinced matchmaking for same is completely random.

Getting a lot better at being patient in the final third and observing the movement of the attackers. I've always struggled with that and keeping an eye on the ball carrier at the same time so I'm really working on that.

Absolutely loving RTTK Vidal and RTTK Tonali. Vidal is the definition of a proper box-to-box midfielder and Tonali is a brilliant CDM. The advantage a CDM with good passing gives is so valuable. Tonali won't get an upgrade but Vidal has a shot at at least one so I'll be a big Inter fan for the next few weeks! 😅

On another note, I've given away about 12-15 wins in the last week or so and have received one message saying thanks. I know it's up to me if I want to do it, but come on, it takes 30 seconds to send a quick message to say thank you. 🙄

Nice man, that looks great and very similar to what I was running up to this week. Really balanced. Just watch out for Spinazzola as he is actually right footed, so if you get your full backs forward a lot he can let you down on the crossing. Theo Hernandez is amazing for me at LB if you're looking for your next upgrade 🙂

Have you tried it out yet?

I use the PS app on my phone and find it way quicker than using the console.

Unfortunately not. I believe once the Champions League group is done the potential for those RTTK cards to upgrade is done. Either way Tonali is still worth it IMO.

Agree on Lautaro. I was expecting that he wouldn't be all that great but I've had him since almost the beginning and have found him to be really effective. He just seems to be in the right place at the times for me and his shot power is excellent. He definitely outplays his stats.

You should try Insigne for Lozano. I really like him on the left.

Hernandez is so, so good. He's easily a top 3 LB in the game aside from Icons.

Opinion on Pogba is really split this year but I don't like him at all.

In fairness I've only tried him sparingly, but he doesn't really suit my style of play.

I think if you're a skiller or someone who plays a more slower build up style and looks to utilize his passing and shots outside the box he's ideal, but for someone like me who plays a direct, fast, counter attacking style he's a bit too clunky.

If he was untradeable I'd sell him in a heartbeat.

Has anyone used Leon Goretzka? I’ve played against teams recently with him and he has been so hard to get around. And he seems to contribute in attack too.

I'm thinking he could finally replace Tielemans who had been in my team since week one.
