Ndidi is a beast. Definite upgrade on my Essien. 

 

 

[Steely]

Why on earth would people do that upgrade I thought to myself.... Swap 11 rares for 4. Good one EA.

 

Ahhh go on then just one go.

 

Spoiler

 

[hannay]

I did 4. Best was an 82. 

[hannay]

i hate the way the release a shit league at the same time!! I got blue and it was a crappy 85 rated Brazil defender from whatever the league they have added tonight for TOTSSF. 

[Steely]

It's so they can fuck you come red picks on Thursday. 

 

Looking forward to a line up of no names from the Saudi league, maybe throw in a Dean Henderson if you are lucky. 

 

[Timmo]

Not sure if everyone here is aware, but if you get Gold 2 or above then at least one of your red picks (for each of them) is guaranteed to be from the major league that week. Could be Henderson twice but at least it's something.

[Steely]

God damn it. I did not know that, I stopped at Gold 3. 

[Timmo]

Sorry, I only found out Saturday and should have posted.

[ryanski]

Did one of those 4 epl player packs and got traore. Already have perez, bergwin & James. Ah well it's 89 rated for the epl guaranteed sbc. 

[Timmo]

I did five with all my untradeables as I've been picking untradeable rewards for ages.

 

OMFG.

 

[Jerec]

Nice, I did about 8 and got the CB from Leicester, but that Aguero is the one I want.

[hannay]

Nice one mate. I think I’ve had my luck. I did 7 in total and didn’t get higher than an 82.

Oh dang. Sensational.

 

For those who are paying to do them, getting expensive now. 2.5k as a minimum seems to be the going rate for prem player, if you aren't going to do them may as well sell up.

[hannay]

I sold up in frustration but now have 4m coins and this line up:

 

 

4231 in game, Ndidi and Essien def mids. 

upgrading next: Essien and Sane.

I have 7 lol 

 

last time I did 100 packs I ended so disappointed!! Good luck with it though, are you going to stream @Pants McSkill style??

 

Alright lads.

Didn't want you to think I was ignoring you all after getting tagged in here. And let's be honest, it's not like I don't pop in and keep an eye on this thread once or twice a week anyway.

 

So! I haven't played in months. With the combo of the above, and my friend's little boy getting into Fifa and them challenging me to a couple of games, I thought I'd test out the old 'you get good picks if you don't play for a while to entice you back in' theory.

 

I had some packs knocking around, and did some SBCs here and there quickly to rustle up 22 packs.

 

And what a haul!

3x83

1x84

1x85

 

That was it. 

That was everything I got of note.

 

We can probably knock that old theory on the head then.

 

 

[hannay]

Anyone else have the Premiership SBC primed ready for the premiership TOTSSF pick and then realise they’ve chosen Harry Maguire? 

[Jerec]

Yep. Just claimed him, lets hope the other 4 have a better selection.

 

To be fair, although the pace is shite, most of the other stats look good, I'll have to see what hes like compared to the Leicester chap I got.

[hannay]

He’s not gonna get in my team past Maldini or Rio though. Ramos 93 on the bench as reserve!

 

think they’ll release another or that’ll be it for this version?

[Jerec]

Reckon that's it. Still, worst case 90 SBC fodder.

[Timmo]

Anyone else do the rip off Prem TOTS?

 

Got Wan Bissaka. Great looking card but I have no links.

[hannay]

I have it ready to open, knowing I’ll get either a duplicate untradable Allison, a third Dean Henderson or  the chap from Leicester. 
 

I’ll update which shortly. 
 

 

[Steely]

I can't not do it.  So expensive though. This one is going to sting.

[hannay]

Salah!!

 

 

sold Mahrez for a profit too. 
 

so have a Salah and 4.7m to play with. 
 

Jordan Henderson looks ace as an Essien upgrade. Anyone used him?

[Jerec]

Got the 88 keeper. Brilliant.

[gooner4life]

I wasn't going to do the prem guaranteed TOTTSF but I done a prem upgrade just before 6pm and got Robertson and Jordan Henderson so thought while the dice are hot i'll have a roll of it....

 

Soyuncu.

[ryanski]

Got Jordan Henderson. Happy days. 

[hannay]

You Henderson owners please give me some feedback! Good CDM?

 

 

[Steely]

Robertson. Could have been worse category. 

[hannay]

He’s good! Didn’t think I’d prefer him to Fuchs but he’s a bit more fluid and a solid left back. 

[Steely]

It just means I have to drop my Ultimate Scream Pique. After 500+ games.

 

He's been an ever present since Halloween. 

 

Fingers crossed now for a something nice and red tomorrow to play alongside him!
