I would say: No.

 

Zanetti is not a cost effective upgrade on Valencia. He has 4* weak foot, and better passing and defending, but he’s also slower and has poorer physicals. Not worth an extra 450k. There’s a reason most of the top 100 players use IF Valencia over Icon Zanetti, even though IF Valencia is more expensive. 

 

With the likelihood of Valencia also getting a TOTY Card today, the price of his NIF and IF card might drop as well.

 

Good reasoning there.

Looking at the current requirements for a Prime Icon and pretty sure there is no way I will be able to get him. The fact you seem to need one of there standard Icon cards to complete it is just hilarious. Right away thats minimum 450k as the chances of packing him are about as much as Caity Lotz asking if she could sit on my face.

 

Best I can hope for is to profit from the full Celtic and Sweden squads I have when it gets released.

I don't think the icon requirements particularly drive up prices as not many people look to complete them.

 

Nothing the extent of marque match ups which everyone gets involved in or repeatable challenges for in forms.

 

ps. I could be wrong!

Looking at Larssons expected stats for his Prime I don't actually think it is worth the investment if you already have his 87 card. Not from a playing sense anyway. His Prime will most likely have the dreadlocks, which I would happily pay 6 figures for on their own if I had the coins!

FIFA 18 can be a frustrating beast at times but it still has the ability to put a smile on my face when Icardi gets a 92nd minute winner after being 3 down with 25 minutes to go. 

50 goals in 38 games for him, Mertens on 46 in 33. Thanks for the heads up @Mitchell

 

It's funny*, but I bought him again recently (the 87 one) as I was struggling getting to Div 1 and thought I'd try to brute force it with his strength/heading, rather than tippy tap/speed it with Dybala/Mertens/Gomez.  I can't play with him anymore!  I've got so used to being in front of goal with the aforementioned 3, that I was useless with him.  I flogged him again and am still languishing in Div 2. :(

 

I'm gonna spend my coinage on Nainggolan for Marchisio.  See if that makes any kind of difference.

 

*It's not really funny.

Larsson does have the dreadlocks, he doesn't have 3 different player models as he was already in the game as a legend, only the new icons they added have 3 different models for each icon card.

 

So 87 Larsson card has dreadlocks?! Time to start saving!! :)

I am an idiot.

 

had 4mil coins after selling OTW Lacazette, Kante, IF Kolasinac and a few others, got caught up in the TOTY hype and spent 1mil on packs, didn't even pack 1 100k player in any of them.

 

So close to getting 95 Pele and having 350k left and now i need to somehow make another mil.

Fuuuuck me. If Gooner isnt packing you know something is wrong.

 

To be fair even if you pack now, the value of the vast majority of players even 88 rated players is on its arse in comparison to the cost of packs.

 

They really should reduce the cost of packs or something as the season goes on and values plummet.

I'm sure you'll pull another Icon soon enough and be right back up there!

 

I opened a 100k pack that didn't even flash, thats how shit they have been.

Annnnnd he’s outta here.

 

Put him up for sale, his card stats mean he should be like a turbo charged Neymar, but he’s so so weak, he’s also too short so doesn’t have the ability to take long enough strides to accelerate away from defenders and get shots off.

 

At least give him a full WL to try him out properly?

On the plus side, you got him so cheap, if you sell him for 3,650,000 you will actually end up making money on him even after the dirty EA tax.

 

I may have mentioned this before but WTF is that all about? Another ploy for EA to strip us of coins, especially on high value transactions and those coins go where exactly? What possible reason could the EA system have with that currency?!

 

Sickening the shite they get away with!!

Its a way to take coins out of the market. There’s always a way to earn more coins: playing games, objectives, rewards, SBC’s. Without the 5% tax, the total number of coins on the market will just increase massively over time. This would then cause the price of players to increase as well as everyone would have more than enough coins to buy players. Basically it helps stabilise the market as much as it profits EA themselves.
