Oh, sweet. Got Bowen, who I was going to buy after someone pointed out on here he could be really good with some upgrades. Noice.

Rock Lesnar · 21-02-2022 9:17pm

Back to 532 formation, Diaz and Salah as CM's, qualified for champs without losing a game then cruised through div 3 yesterday and now im cruising through div.2 tonight, i honestly dont understand this fifa anymore

Lord TSC · 21-02-2022 9:38pm

Did 10 of the 80+ player picks.

KdB, Suarez, Szczesny, Griezmann, Carvajal, Tadic, Brozovic, Muniain, Angelino and another Bowen card, lol

Still, that's quite a haul for 10 PPs. I'm wondering if I properly invest into doing Zidane now, or if it's not worth the coinage...

Calvin · 22-02-2022 3:08am

Packed RTTF Havertz from a 75+ single rare gold player pack from swaps. Not half bad. Won’t make it anywhere near my squad but good to have in case he gets some nice upgrades.

Ha I had the exact opposite luck. One 84 from 5/6. Was having some good luck with the last 81+ and was hoping it would carry forward!

piplip87 · 22-02-2022 10:12am

Is everyone doing the Silver and bronze SBCS from the Icon SBC's. Did them all last week and pulled about 500K from the sales of pulls. Got a couple of FS players from them seem to be loaded.

mutley18 · 22-02-2022 3:16pm

81-87 sbc seems decent. I just got Pogba, Muller, Bernardo Silva and IF Gameiro from 7 of them.

Frisbee · 22-02-2022 4:34pm

Just looked and I have 11 first owned German Silvers in my club. Dead handy as can knock off 3 Swap Tokens at the same time.

Boulders8 · 22-02-2022 10:16pm

Yeah I’m going the same route.

Quickest option was Silver-German-Eredivisie for 3 tokens (6 games) and then First Owned-Portuguese league for 2 tokens (6 games) so 5 tokens for 12 games. Shame I don’t have any silver German players from Eredivisie players so I’ll have to play an extra 6 games

Blazer · 22-02-2022 11:58pm

Completed Griezemann completely by accident. Used duplicates with lower cards and then did the 82x25 which gave me about 4-5 86+ cards. Ended up costing me 39k in coins to finish him out.

FB Neymar can sod off now.

Kimbot · 23-02-2022 9:11am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118673254#Comment_118673254

I got IF Gameiro twice and DMOTM Gray amonst a few high fodder.

Lord TSC · 23-02-2022 1:43pm

Sweeeet, packed Telles from the Glory Road objective. I was tempted to buy him anyway, cause he’s usually awesome in game and he’s a United fan, so that’s a big W for me.

martyos121 · 23-02-2022 2:10pm

Oh didn’t even notice that Griezmann SBC, he’ll fit perfectly into my team. I don’t really need or want to upgrade on RB Suarez but I fear he’ll become obsolete soon so I might as well take the opportunity to upgrade with Griezmann. His toxic celebrations might result in a few more rage quits and save me a bit of time playing this god awful game. 😂

Boulders8 · 23-02-2022 3:02pm

Anyone done or close to finishing that Fanatics objectives in friendlies? I’m getting totally smashed every game, clearly match making is not in place and I’m coming up against players far better than me. It’s all I can do to stay in a game and keep it close but ultimately will lose even then by a few goals.

Switch back to rivals and no problems picking up wins but no chance in Fanatics at the moment - hopefully the elite players will be finished with it by the weekend and give the likes of me chance :)

awec · 23-02-2022 3:21pm

Got Kramaric in my SS pack, meh.

Osmosis Jones · 23-02-2022 4:15pm

Haven't posted in ages but here's the team, still using a lot of the same players. Been loving big bully strikers all year and there's none better than Mitrovic with his 99 Strength, Jumping, Heading, and Aggression.

Starting formation:

In-game:

The next month should be big for me though with PIMs (Roy Keane), upgraded Heroes (Robbie Keane), and Paddy's Day coming up.

are people doing golden goal no?

Boulders8 · 23-02-2022 5:34pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118679092#Comment_118679092

A couple of times at the start got a couple of golden goal wins but since then it’s been a full on sweat fest - people using every skill in the book and getting pounded. Did go 2 up in one but he didn’t quit and proceeded to score 4 in a row!

Rivals was like a walk in the park in comparison - one game I was 1-5 and 2-6 down, had Varane sent off, changed to constant pressure tactics and got a 6-6 draw.

Fanatics mode just feels completely overmatched

Mr Moon · 23-02-2022 6:32pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118678470#Comment_118678470

Yeah, I’ve14/15 wins. I only started it yesterday and got ten wins, have another 4 from my 5 games today. Come 6 o’clock, I’ll have another 5 games I can play, just need 7 more wins. I don’t understand why people are quitting at 0-0 though.

Mr Moon · 23-02-2022 6:32pm

I just got a game in ligue 1 liaisons 😳

AdamD · 23-02-2022 7:37pm

This game is in a dire state on PS5, attacking is a complete chore, defending ridiculously easy.

False Prophet · 23-02-2022 8:26pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118679630#Comment_118679630

Persume they are just toxic in that they prefer to lose, rather then give you the win or try and win themselves.

Seen the same in wl, maybe I'm just biased but it seems to be Liverpool fans (based on stadium, team name etc) that do it over the last 2 weeks.

It is kinda funny at times because some of these types try the run from kickoff goal or try the sideline cutback. Its like they throw in the towel after you stop them scoring from those ways and look for easier fish to beat up.

Lord TSC · 23-02-2022 10:08pm

I’m getting two wins a day on the fanatics objectives. It’s sweaty.

im not doing golden goals, mainly cause the limit means I can’t afford too. Most of my wins are from people playing ultra high pressure and trying to force golden goals, but that means they’re wrecked by 60 mins and you can bang in a few goals unopposed.

if I GGd, I’d likely never win a game. I don’t mind doing it on icon swaps where you’re not punished for quitting but in this mode, just can’t afford it.

Mr Moon · 23-02-2022 11:09pm

I actually completed the ligue 1 liaisons objective 🥳

awec · 24-02-2022 12:54am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118679987#Comment_118679987

Really not enjoying it.

Finding it very difficult to get the ball from my midfield to my attack, my attackers and midfielders always seem to be totally swamped or the passes will be absolute garbage for no real reason.

In fact passing full stop is rubbish. Doesn't flow properly, feels really clunky and slow.

Mr Moon · 24-02-2022 1:15am

Do you have the PS4 version?

Blazer · 24-02-2022 9:40am

packs seem a bit juiced this morning. Got rttf Tolisso, Pogba, a few MoM and totw cards.

Tempted to do Varane now before he goes.

awec · 24-02-2022 9:53am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118682324#Comment_118682324

No PS5.

awec · 24-02-2022 10:29am

88 Donnarumma and 88 Suarez in my packs today, better than last week.

I have 1 step to do on the HM Martinez SBC, but I'm not convinced it's worth finishing. Anyone here used him and have any thoughts?

BrentMused · 24-02-2022 10:59am

Some good fodder again this week from option 2:

Ruben Dias (87), Parejo (86), Smalling RTTF (86), Ndidi (85) and TOTW Danjuma (84).

I probably have just enough to do the mid icon pick now after stocking my club up over the last few weeks and there seems to be some good weight on those icon picks from the videos I've watched online.

Anyone on here done it?

Blazer · 24-02-2022 11:27am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118683793#Comment_118683793

I've 600k to spend on it too...very tempted... I bought Hakimi to switch him in game with CDM Lahm but I just don't gel with him at all. And I'm not paying 600k for a RB :)

Might as well blow it on a icon pick.

Lord TSC · 24-02-2022 11:45am

Yo, what the….

You've some pack luck this year! 😯

Calvin · 24-02-2022 11:59am

Got a French RTTF from rewards… Tolisso. No Kimpembe for me… the only one that’d make it into my squad :(

Club is absolutely stacked now with so many good cards that I can’t fit into my team.

Blazer · 24-02-2022 12:02pm

apparently Puskas's moments got leaked.

They're saying he's 5* skills and 4* weak foot. It will be without a doubt one of the best cards ever in fifa I think with his work rates. I always found R9 to be a underwhelming card.

I've gotta have that Puskas card

I’ve had an insane week or so, in terms of fodder. But that’s Telles and Mane from this promo which is brilliant.

doing a mid icon pick now to see if the luck holds 😂

awec · 24-02-2022 12:21pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118684335#Comment_118684335

An insane week?

Your pack luck this year disgusts me. 😁

Lord TSC · 24-02-2022 12:22pm

Blargh, it didn’t.

Not really sure what to choose. I love baby Soc so could upgrade. But being realistic, none of the three really make much of a difference in my squad. Stoic doesn’t bench Neymar, Socrates isn’t beating Mane/Rooney, and Essen isn’t benching Flashback Kante, I think…

awec · 24-02-2022 12:27pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118684373#Comment_118684373

I'd take Stoichkov.

That 90 rating be useful for SBCs.

lol I was waiting for you to do it 🤣

Rock Lesnar · 24-02-2022 3:21pm

1 win from div.1, took a few days break again, the 532 is still working perfectly, and Daka is still scoring lots of goals, i done showdown Origi and put him up front along with Daka, Origi 9 in 4 games, maybe i need to take breaks more often

BrentMused · 24-02-2022 3:27pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118684748#Comment_118684748

Cafu/Rio/Hierro.

Meh.

It doesn't work out too badly though because I can move Zambrotta to LB on 7 chem with his 5 star weak foot, use Cafe RB and sell SIF Theo for about a 100k profit on what I paid for him.

Plus I get to try a new icon I suppose.

Blazer · 24-02-2022 3:43pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118685650#Comment_118685650

I was going to go for Cafu for the 11 tokens and the 83x25. Let me know what you think of him,

mutley18 · 24-02-2022 6:04pm

Anyone looking for a LW forget Neymar and get Prime Nedved for 211k on PS and stick an engine on him. So underrated.

His finesse shots are actually disgusting. One I scored actually angered me earlier, "How?! how the hell has that gone in?!" I wonder what the other player thought 😂

Mr Moon · 24-02-2022 7:57pm

Did I miss an update in the last couple of days? The gameplay is shocking, passing not going anywhere near where I want them to go.

martyos121 · 24-02-2022 8:13pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118687141#Comment_118687141

Same as that, played a lot of rivals lately but it feels absolutely painful to play. I find all my players are moving like oil tankers as well, everything just feels off at the minute.

Rock Lesnar · 24-02-2022 8:42pm

1st game tonight, i win and im back in div.1, cant believe the run of results im getting, i love fifa 😄

As I (and others) said yesterday, the game is a total mess on next gen right now. Passing is a disgrace.
