What's triggered the plummet? 

 

Me spending 2.7 million coins. Fucking EA.

[Baring]

It’s a mad drop on a lot of players like but you bought them to enjoy don’t worry about it. 

[sbrandon111]

Had a torrid time online with this tonight. Probably shouldn't have tinkered with my formation and tactics. Just couldn't seem to make any space to get any shots off, and when I did, I hit a post or crossbar. More practice needed....and maybe some YouTube videos

[sbrandon111]

Am I right in thinking that the new Morelos challenge is all done in friendlies, and the online part can be done against a friend?

[Baring]

I watched a how to defend video, it felt ok but I conceded 8 in 2 games. 3 at back not working I’m going with this now spent rest my dollar on Alba. 

Prob get Ter Stegen when I raise 60k. 

[Steely]

That is a mighty fine looking team!

 

442-4-Life.

 

 

[Baring]

McGinn will be on 8 in a couple of games and the keeper/full backs after 10. 

 

 

[Baring]

@Steely who was that tactic guides man? The one you sent me for 3-5-2.

I believe it's the first time they've ever announced an SBC ahead of time like this. Can only try to imagine what the requirements will be.

 

 

[Pants McSkill]

EDIT: Wot Timmo said.

[Baring]

They need time to think about it properly so the whole world doesnt have him. 

It will affect the market massively. 

[Steely]

I'm going 2.4M cost est.

 

He certainly wont be in most teams.

 

I predict alot of people will have sold up in preperation, only to balk at the price or relise they cant afford it, then go running back to the previous high rated players who have plummeted. Driving them back up.

[hannay]

Yeah it will be nothing short of extortion. 
 

given the cost of Aubs early on and the lower prices of cards in the version I think it will be on similar levels to higher icon cards in 19.

If hes ST then I'll get him, if hes RW then i'll prob pass.

His tradeable 96 costs that so it won't be that. I'm thinking 1.5ish.

Surely his RW is way easier to link, just pair him with Semedo in a 451.

[Pants McSkill]

My (completely wild and un-thought-through) guess is it will require 8 different SBCs, ranging from 83-89 ratings. 

All prices of all 83s, 84s, 85s+ go flying.

It costs (to begin with) just over a million, so the entire market of highly sought players crashes hard, losing everyone coins on their best players they would sell to do Messi. 

Everyone spends all their remaining coins, all clubs get drained... And then we'll see shitloads of promo packs at Futmas.

[Keiths_Dad]

Think I might invest in some high rated La Liga players for this bullshit. They'll shoot up in price, I reckon.

[Pants McSkill]

You're well behind on that. Pique is already up 10k.

[Keiths_Dad]

Balls. Just bought one each of Pique, Courtois, Kroos, Casemiro and Benzema without bothering to look at price trends.

[Pants McSkill]

Keep an eye on their prices, especially Thursday lunchtime. If they're up a bit then you can still make a few coins.

 

[Keiths_Dad]

Yeah, with Thursday rewards I'd still expect them to rise. Thought I was going to be rich though, so rich I could buy my own Messi.

[sbrandon111]

Morelos TOTT get! Got 3 goals in the first online friendly game, buzzing

Im a Rangers fan so this was a must get after the disappointment on Sunday.

[gooner4life]

 

[Baring]

Oh do one.

[Jerec]

Took you long enough.

[Steely]

why always Gooner?
