Scoring from 6 crosses by an American player was tedious though.

100 times this. Crosses are not the way I usually play, mainly because the AI win a disproportionate amount of headers, and whenever I'm ready to cross it my forwards are usually ten yards outside of the penalty area.

This swaps friendlies mode is wank.

I've been sticking to the offline tokens so far, but decided to do some of the online ones today. Managed to win 6/10 matches quite quickly with the England players, and now I'm moved to the Netherlands. Got to 2/6, and the last 3 games I've scored the Golden Goal, but got a "request could not be processed" message at the end and it exits UT, like EA are preventing people from doing too many, too quickly. Saw others posting about it on Twitter last week too.

So I have 8 WC tokens now, but should be on the verge of 9. I want to get to 10 for the 20x84 rated players pack.

Have EA updated the the international squads for the WC yet? I saw they did Brazil a little while back but last I checked, no one else.

EA automatically ban accounts that play a certain amount of games in an hour to prevent too many DNFs. Apparently when these challenges started the Golden Goal games triggered this and loads of people ended up with their account suspended for 24 hours as a result.

Way to go @Brandon Cutler Fan Accountis he tradable or untradable? Hopefully will fit into the team you have or used as a super sub.

Improved the team. Thankfully packed a lot of 85-88 sellable player's I won't use to bring into the England set up I'm having on FUT. 

Oh I also packed this. 🙂

Untradable but he's one of those players I probably wouldn't get rid of anyway. Behind Haaland he's been the most annoying player to come up against this year for me.

The rating will also help for late game SBCs anyway so I'm sure I'll get use out of him before then.

So TOTW is stopping because of the World Cup, seems like the current TOTW will remain in rewards this weekend but by next weekend will be removed and the rewards will change to gold packs etc. Apparently FUT Champs rewards arent really anything to shout home about most of the time

[Baddar]

There does seem to be a lot of complaints, but I did see a counter argument from someone last night who'd done every Champs so far this season, and their best card was an 84 rated player. You end up with a decent coin bonus regardless when it comes to Champs, so some 86+ rated cards just for competing can go towards future SBCs.

I've seen some videos of rewards for being 20-0 on the weekend and still ended up with bottom book players as picks.

[Dang117]

Alot of it comes from the content creators which then filters through the community

There's a black Friday pack for 10 coins that's only around for a couple if hours. I did it packed a duplicate Muller one of the better packs I've seen. Someone on twitter posted that they got TOTW Haaland from it so they look like they are OP packs

[Baddar]

I got 3 dupes. Want my 10 coins back.

Well, I got a Kulusevski out of it, so...

[Baddar]

Finally got to 10 WC Swaps tokens so I could open the 84x20 pack.

Bernardo Silva and Ruben Dias my best players, and 7 dupes which is disgusting considering I don't have much fodder. Ridiculous.

Ooh that's painful.

I'm probably just saving up to get 3x20x84, I don't really fancy having Viera, but I might switch to Fabinho if I'm tempted. 

[TheGrandAvatar]

Just packed Klose. 

Packed some good sellable fodder. So here is the updated team and bench. 

Also 89 Alan Shearer is on the bench. Forgot to take a screenshot of that one. 

[Benjamin]

Can't wait for these Swaps to be done. Probably not going to get Viera because I won't know how to utilize him correctly, Probably going to be 84x60, maybe a WC Icon player pick as well. If not I might just get Fabinho and Coman, maybe?  

[Chris2K]

I'm really enjoying the Golden Goal friendlies still, I seem to be better at them than 90 minute games. I haven't decided what I'll use my swaps on yet, I think it'll depend on how many I get from the Squad Battles milestones.

[TheGrandAvatar]

Think I'm going for Mason Mount on Swaps. If I can't do it or have some left. Will probably just get some packs with them I don't know. Think I did the same last year with the Winter Player Tokens.
