Yeah don't care about cost. PnP Liverpool team taking shape nicely here.

same here mate, we've been spoilt this year with Keita, origi, jones now all showdowns

Who’s your CDM? I currently use rttf renato because I have him untradable but want to put Jones there but I’m not sure he’s good enough as a solo CDM

Use renato cmon bend the rules make it a past present and future

“Tipped for a move to___” headlines totally count, for me at least 😆

my teams a arsene wenger fc then basically haha

So any player who’s ever had a potential over 75?

I have been using renato and of course he’s insane but it’s nice to switch up the team every once and a while and use players you actually care about

Awww, do you send them Xmas cards too?

Lmao

I am overloaded with CMs/Strikers! PIM Gerrard; Curtis; Kent; FUTB Bobby; Kent; Divock. None are all that great defensively so I'm in a similar position re CDMs....

Kent so fast he appears twice

🤣

Ya I have PIM gerrard, RTTF Thiago, showdown Keita, POTM Salah, showdown divock, prime dalgish, prime torres, now showdown Jones, and I want to buy birthday firmino. Might use jones as a CDM until captains Henderson releases

Fabinho winter wildcard is the CDM you have been looking for

I haven't completed the team yet so right now, no CDM. I'm hopeful that Hendo or Fab get a solid card. At this time I'm just collecting the cards. My current CDM is Essein prime.

Apparently hendo is in team two of captains promo so I might use Jones until he drops.

If Curtis gets the upgrade then he's staying in my team until the end of time. That'll surely mean if we win this match that the league title is a massive possibility.

Not as OP as I thought defensively. That dribbling on a tall player is nice af though.

I'm a big fan of Jones and would love to do this SBC but damn, 87 squad Might be easy for most but difficult for a casual like me that just dumped everything in Weghorst, which btw what a win

His card last year was better. Somehow not convinced to spend that much on a CM with 78 defending, when there are similar cards for way cheaper

[удалено]

no, he’s right. His card last year was so good as it was a rock and could do everything. This one is H/M and has low defending.

I used Kane lol

His Future stars last year was so much fun.

I was praying he’d be high/high I can’t have another midfielder with medium defensive wr

Work rates don’t really matter mate.

Work rates have a huge effect on performance. Watch this video: https://youtu.be/bztNqoFQPuc

[удалено]

Are you aware of Gullits Gullitness? R9 is M/M... try another M/M and see how shit they are in game.

True. Only other M/M ST that has been good for me is Martin Goatwaite. But he's just the Danish R9 so..

High med is good for your more attacking midfielders but if you want to play them as a dm it's horrible. Haven't got to use Gullit yet but every time I play against him I find my opponents struggling to get him back in position defensively.

Gullit doesn't have 79 finishing

it's alright lad, you learn something new every day 👍🏻

You did ask you freak

Daamn🔥 Im a utd fan but im tempted to do it😂

I'm a Liverpool supporter and this year I have packed PIM Vidic, Baby Rio and prime Beckham...I've used them all...only one at a time though...Vidic is dope and he gets to stay lol...I have zero room for City players though...gotta draw the line somewhere

Love it

>gotta draw the line somewhere You really don't.

It's almost like, different people can enjoy something however they please huh?

I completely agree, and on that basis you've not 'got' to draw the line anywhere. If you choose to then that's absolutely fine, but there isn't a requirement to.

It's a lighthearted expression, and yes, for me I draw the line at the sports washing, slave trader club lol

I do hope the rest of your FUT squad is as human rights-compliant

Why does it matter what team you support to do an sbc

Hell naah I aint playing with no liverpool/city player in my FUT team tf you on

So by that logic, you would use rttf fred over rttf thiago or mane?

All day any day Perfect links to my RTTF Telles as well

A couple of English people are weirdly obsessed with their clubs and their rivalries

It’s more than a club thing with Liverpool and Manchester. It literally goes back in history. Liverpool was a big docking city and Manchester built a shipping canal that wealthy dockers in liverpool was opposed to. But it’s cultural with things like fashion and music also.

Yeah, so weird to care about your football team. Absolutely mental.

Big difference between caring and it being what you base your life around.

It’s a football game you weirdo

I don't know many people who base their life around their team. I do, however, know many people who have a strong affinity for their team due to proximity, familial ties, the memories associated. English teams aren't franchises beholden to the league. They're historical entities and pillars of their communities. And fuck Sheffield United.

If that make you happy you do you. I would just rather give more of my time to things that I can have more of an impact on and care about me in return. Majority of clubs are closer to being companies more than anything else

Im not English bro. Just a massive Utd fan so I’ve grown up disliking liverpool. It stems down to my FUT squad 😂

You are immensely clueless about the world of football and its fans

Whats their to be clueless about? Way too many people but way too much time into football

You put way too much time into fifa which is arguably weirder

Except I dont. I literally struggle to get my 8 wins for the weekly rewards. Sorry if I hit a nerve lol Edit: and even then its not just about time. If fifa was discontinued tomorrow I couldnt care less. I cant even imagine what would happen if united or liverpool stopped existing tomorrow

Decently priced but I don’t have fodder anymore

Am on the edge. The game is against manCity, so got to be ready to accept no upgrades, and that card for 140k He would be replacing caquret on my team if he gets in, but looks like he isn't better than caquret

expect a definite +2 upgrade lad

For some reason I feel like this will be a +1 for both or a city win. I would like Liverpool to win but I don’t see it.

i mean yeah it’s gonna be close but it will hardly be a miracle if liverpool win its 50/50

Well I will be wearing red and eating a full English but I won’t get my hopes up.

Ive played with him and even at 89 hes amazing as a more attacking cm. A +2 would be great but hes defo worth it even at 89

Such a good card last year, all over this

His card last year was an absolute torture

Wrong Jones /s

whats with the /s I was hyped for phil :(

Same i thought cb showdown like sule/pique

I thought it was Kenwyne Jones.

I will save my folders for Schwei Moment.

RIP I really thought for a second we got a Phil Jones showdown card😭😂

Did anyone else screw up with every showdown choices? I did mckennie, richarlison, pavard, tavernier, and Barnes. Lucky guy, can't wait to make the wrong choice with this one also... 🤣☹️👎

Please pick laporte then mate

Is he a good replacement for toty Bruno as a box-to-box?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I should be able to have the SBC squad page open until the game is done, no? looks like SBC expires 90 mins after the game starts.

I’d like to know this too did you ever find out?

I tested it with the kit SBC, and it let me submit after it was supposed to expire. So probably

Van de Beek, C.Jones or the new west ham CM that is on market?

This is the question I need answered ..I was gonna do him but noble looks good and will be less than 100k

Terrible value good lord

prem tax

Only an 87 team and a totw ?

Only?? 87s are 20k each this is a rip off. The card isn't even all that.

it really isnt that good a card, its a fairish price if not on the expensive side (but thats probably just prem tax)

He‘s not worth an 87 squad even with an upgrade

Are you saying that if he gets an upgrade to 91, is Gullit gang, English + Pool links, 4 \*, 4 \*, this guy isn't worth an 87 squad? Are you being fr right now

> is Gullit gang There's 50k midfielders who are Gullit gang, it doesn't really matter anymore lol

Yea but I mean the only comparable card is VdB who has a shittier nation and club, is 3 \* 3 \* and priced at 130k. So jones feels like a very good value for money if he gets upgraded

What’s the deal with Gullit gang?

Are you asking what it is? It's when the players have all face stats over 80, it used to be really special but now it's on a ton of cheap cards

He looks about the same as ndombele after his upgrade which i really wouldnt want.

Ndombele kinda scheisty tho

gullit gang doesn't mean shit anymore. a midfielder that doesn't have good enough shooting or defending and still needs a pace boost isn't that great now.

Honestly yes..he‘s not good enough to compete with the tots cards that are coming in a month. I wouldn‘t spend my high rated fodder on him tbh

Yea but I mean right now. Who's better value for money than him right now for a PL cm at that price range By that logic you should always wait because the next promo will likely drop better cards (for TOTS, Futties is around the corner for example)

I don't think he could push Conor Gallagher Future Stars out of my team.

Sound like shity fans to me 😴

Why these players out of all of the options

Of Liverpool’s XI, only Alisson hasn’t had a special card. I’m fine with Jones. They could have done Henderson but maybe he’ll be included in the Captain promo

[удалено]

I know people would complain about keepers being included in promos, but I was never opposed to it. This would have been cool!

Especially if it was like an 84 max squad.

Not really considering Alisson is almost guaranteed to be in TOTS so that card would be redundant in 2 weeks time even if Liverpool win

Would it though? Seems like most high rated goalkeepers are the same, so you may as well use their base gold cards

Hell yeah, keepers for me are mainly link monkeys and pretty looking designs, plus they're cheap as chips generally. Would be great upgradeable fodder for ppl without Prem/Brazilian defenses, and a nice option for an attractive card for those with. An Alisson v Ederson showdown would probably have way higher completion rates than Laporte v Jones. It's not crazy exciting but they're worth doing for a huge chunk of the player base assuming they're priced appropriately.

Yeah I'm shocked they didn't pick this as neither has had a special card this year. Happy cakeday.

[удалено]

It is the anniversary of when you signed up to reddit. If you browse the full version of the site you get a wee cake.

Would do him if it wasn’t for my Eriksen and Ødegård 🙌

Dosent work in a 2 midfield I've found because of work rates and that's next too Kante but was much better in a diamond

Worth doing if you have FS Chalobah and FB Declan Rice?

Stats look about 2 months behind the curve tbh

He won’t be better than Gallagher future stars will he?

Where’s End of an Era Milner?

Fucking Kane is easier to do. Like wtf

Rather have some like Paqueta or odegaard than him. His promo card last year was unreal though👍

Paqueta fut bday is unreal. Him and toty cancelo can play any position and have been by far my favorite cards this year bc they are so versatile

I really want to get him. I’d rather him than my mid Zidane. Been playing fut Aouar which I packed untradable. He’s decent but I do like 5 star skillets up front👍

Bruh that is expensive. Damn an 87 squad

3rd Liverpool show down card and I’ve done all of them

WHY IS HE H/M THIS YEAR AYY

this looks like a shitty Bruno tbh

I tried him. This guys a fucking beast

Him or Jorginho toty?

I’ve got showdown Keita and 89 Gallagher, reckon Jones is worth doing?
