Got back from some customer visits - chatting to the kid on whether we open his Top 100 packs or not. Whilst we're contemplating that, open the packs on First Owners club.

Firstly - Mega Pack #1, IF Tolisso - not too shabby. 2nd Mega Pack - walkout ... Argie ... Messi! So stoked as this club has seriously needed someone special, for me to actually keep playing with them.

Main acc ... 100k packs weren't the best & Isco was the walkout on the Ultimate TOTW pack. Overall haul of around 450k - again, not complaining, but a Dybala would have been really appreciated!!

Not bad Kiwi, you are like one of the games elite with all your coins. I managed to get SIF Hernandez from one of my mega packs, which goes straight in as my best pull all year.   Sold for 100k, half an hour later he was selling for 120k - d'oh!

Even that didn't take shine off it though.  Got more coins than I ever had this year, but all sat in the bank.  Dunno who id want to buy, probably guys for la liga side, but they are all inflated so not going near any of them before weekends out.  Prem might be the smart move as their prices are all dead low but I'm not sure.  Think ill just go with what I've got for now.

Was pleased to see my IF Kovacic got upgraded, had grown to like the card anyway but hopefully even better now.  Also from my B team, trigueros and asensio both got upgraded so had to get their new versions.   Also need to upgrade Fernandez the RM centre back too.  Hopefully the raft of upgrades wont lose their 'underdog' status in matches.

My rewards weren't the best. Got Gabriel Jesus and Mahrez as the players of any worth. Sometimes think that Gold 2 rewards are worse than Gold 3 apart from the coins.

The target for me this weekend is 19 wins to reach gold for the month. Not looking like I'll have as much time to play as the past two weekends so despite not feeling rough and rundown like the past three weekends, time could be my biggest obstacle.

Picked up an IF Fernando Torres this morning. He had been extinct as late as last night due to being the cheapest way to get the Atletico Madrid SBC done, but the threat of a MotM Saul at some point which would make IF Torres unnecessary for the SBC, caused panic and undercutting. There's a thread on the PS4 section od the forums where guys had dozens of them but were waiting for EA to raise his max bin. The smart ones had already sold. Reckon there's people lost over a million coins overnight by not selling after reading through it!
Had made a couple of teams last night, but this signing could change my plans. Not sure now what I'll be using!

Yeah Eric - some amazing pack luck this year - got to say! From never pulling a legend, to getting 2 in 1 day - the 2nd being arguably the most OP "used" legend. Pele is rarely seen, whilst Gullit everyone really wants him.

Given the influx of players in the last 2 weeks - with some other packs bought too - decided to re-look at SBC Suarez. Previously had completed 7 of the teams - more for the packs than the actual thought of finishing the SBC off. So, used up all the non-rares in the club, bar La Liga, Calcio A and Bundesliga - result was 16 La Liga Premium packs.

Then, only needed to spend about 11k on players - predominantly 500-900 coin range, and completed another 8 teams. Rewards from those packs were pretty crap other than about 10 squad fitnesses - essentially paying them back. Have another 2 more to do, before contemplating to do the big 3. Did see that IF Torres was around 32k on Xbox, and UP Carrasco is currently at 20k. Might need some more incentive though, to spend 200k+ on those big 3 (do have a few high-rated cards for them already in the club).

Would really like to do this on the First Owners side!! So, starting chipping away at it ... but gonna need some REAL GOOD pack luck on that side!

Good stuff kiwi, pele and gullit, presume you'd never sell them?

Made a mixed start as usual to league last night.   Bad start followed by a 6 or so game win streak has took me to 11 wins from 18.  Made a few signings and lost plenty on a quick flip of likes of SIF gameiro, if jovetic and if Alves.   None of them done it for me.  Gameiro was good for goals but just didn't feel good on the ball.  I decided to get griezmann instead and now I wonder why it took me so long, he got 4 goals in first half of a game last night, he's hit the ground running  :). Replaced Alves with ter stegen, 2 games with Alves made me think he was like Claudio bravo in real life, he saves nothing!

Last night started with 4 games. Won 3 of them, but even with Messi, the First Owners club team, is still pretty much crap. Hate them.

Something had to change as the games today, was a case of the Jekyll 'n Hyde team. One game it's tough / sluggish / every bounce against you ... the other is a rage quit in 30 min. Even the kid came in and played 2/3 games - same story ... 26 min 4-0 rage quit & the next game he's 0-3 down in 26 min.

With me starting to work through the Suarez SBC, it became evident after the midday session, that we needed to complete that SBC to get a more consistent strike-force ....

I played a bit last night but it was dreadful. The whole thing felt shocking. Slow, unresponsive, and several games where I might as well not have bothered tackling as every single thing would just bounce straight back to the other player.
Got to 4-5 and was like having teeth pulled. Need 19 wins for gold monthly but can see that not happening if the game is as awful as yesterday. Also pushed for time.

Sorry - wasn't clear there - pulled Bobby Moore on the Saturday, then Gullit on the Sunday. Not pulled Pele myself, that honour belongs to Simmo :D.

And no - will never sell. Gullit will always stay.

It's Sanches literally every game. He's more OP than Kante ffs! Gameplay is still horrendous. Never seen so many random rebounds straight to my opponent. Nearly every tackle! Players can't control balls, feel so so slow, take extra touches despite telling them to pass or shoot. So so bad this week.

I'm 8-10 needing 19 wins for gold monthly. It's going to be tight at this rate!
Some serious BS goals against me and every tackle and loose ball going to every opponent each game so definitely up against it this weekend.

Damn! Good luck mate. Seems like every week it's the same with results my side ... always struggling to get better than the 50-50 ratio.

I have completely collapsed this weekend. Absolute capitulation! Am current 12-18! And I've won the last two games, scoring 11 goals in the process, so it was even worse half an hour ago. So six from 10 to qualify next week, 7 from 10 for gold monthly. A very bad weekend.
