[00:00:02] Hello, Footies, and welcome back to FUT IN REVIEW. Today it is Friday, December 13th when we are recording this and this is of course episode, I'm actually thinking which episode it is, I think it's episode 647.

[00:00:23] My name is John and I'll be your host today and joining me on this globetrotting adventure are none other than Yngwie.

[00:00:34] Good evening, good evening.

[00:00:37] And joining the packs once again wearing an awesome kit not from Paceway this time is none other than John Kirkham aka Talking Foot. Hi John.

[00:00:48] Hey guys, thanks for having me back on.

[00:00:50] Welcome back, you invested in some hardware and you're back?

[00:00:54] I am indeed yes, got my nice new laptop and treat myself a new football top so yeah spending all my Christmas money before Christmas.

[00:01:03] Yeah the thing's Black Friday is good for you.

[00:01:05] Yeah.

[00:01:07] And as every week, we talk the promotion, we talk the content, we talk our week in foot and that's also what we'll be starting with, with the

[00:01:19] This Week in Football Ultimate Team.

[00:01:23] Best topic of the show, well actually I don't know if it's the best topic but I like this.

[00:01:28] We rate this week in foot from one being abysmal, 10 being extremely good and you want to highlight one of your top moments or one of your nightmare moments.

[00:01:41] Yngwie let's start with you.

[00:01:43] What's been your week in foot?

[00:01:46] I can say one thing that was positive was that EA upgraded the Showdown Pedro card after the match yesterday and the Road to the Knockouts card after the round finished yesterday.

[00:01:59] So they were, well they actually upgraded when I was expecting them within 24 hours after the matches finished which is great.

[00:02:07] So I hope this is something that will continue because it's not fun waiting a week for a live player to be upgraded.

[00:02:15] So I'll give EA props for that one.

[00:02:18] Champions League promotion, upgrades were faster, right?

[00:02:22] Champions League, UEFA, Europa League and the Conference League, yeah.

[00:02:27] Yeah, these are fast so.

[00:02:29] Yeah, and the Showdown as well. So that was a very nice surprise to see today.

[00:02:35] That was also your highlight of the week? Yep.

[00:02:37] That's not very promising for the week. What was your rating then?

[00:02:42] Yeah, five?

[00:02:44] A ten? Did you say ten?

[00:02:46] Five.

[00:02:47] Oh, now you said it twice. Five plus five is ten.

[00:02:51] Sorry mate, had to be done.

[00:02:53] John, how's it been your week in foot mate?

[00:02:56] I'd give it a six. The problem is, it's not a problem.

[00:03:01] The highlight is I got promoted out of six back into five and I've not really played much on that account.

[00:03:09] The team is stagnating, so I just, like everybody else, I have done SBC after SBC.

[00:03:16] My club is super thin. I've got no goals over 81.

[00:03:20] I've got no specials unless they're in my team.

[00:03:23] And I've got no great teams.

[00:03:26] So I give it a six. Basically, because I got promoted, went on a bit of a win run, but my team is stale.

[00:03:31] So, six.

[00:03:32] You've got a pretty good team mate.

[00:03:34] You just went up the curve really fast at the start and I think that's what now brings you down.

[00:03:40] Yeah, I've said that before. I think Dan had asked a question, I think it was last year.

[00:03:45] Would you like a mega team at the start of the game and you can't improve it?

[00:03:49] Would you like to continue to improve your team? And I had said at the start last time, I'd love a mega team at the start.

[00:03:55] But no, realistically, what you want is you want continual growth.

[00:03:58] So every week you just want another new player.

[00:04:01] Not saying an Mbappe every week, but you know, I'm still running with 86 centre back, 86 full back, 85 winger.

[00:04:09] You're just thinking, I'd love to get that 87 or 88 upgrade.

[00:04:12] I'd love to just tweak one player at a time.

[00:04:15] So yeah, that's what I'd like to see happen.

[00:04:17] And that's not happening in the minute.

[00:04:18] Is that also the case with you, Invi?

[00:04:21] That if you don't upgrade your team every week a little bit, it gets still for you?

[00:04:26] Or can everything around just make that week still good for you?

[00:04:30] It depends on how, if the team plays well, I don't mind just keeping it and go along with it.

[00:04:37] But if I'm struggling in one position and then I can't upgrade it, it's really frustrating.

[00:04:43] I am actually running an 84 rated evolution Joffre at right winger, which is a really fun card.

[00:04:51] So he's still working fine.

[00:04:54] I'm using the 87 rated evolution, Ferlamendi at left back.

[00:05:00] So they're still more than good enough.

[00:05:03] It's just that I'm struggling to score consistently with my strikers.

[00:05:08] They are so much as in rush scores a lot.

[00:05:12] And then suddenly he stopped scoring.

[00:05:14] Then I used the Darwin Union card and he scores, but they still miss a lot of chances, which I think they should score with those stats.

[00:05:21] And then it's like, hmm, I should upgrade my striker.

[00:05:24] But then no, I can't afford any.

[00:05:26] So then it gets a little bit.

[00:05:29] What am I going to do now?

[00:05:31] Yeah, I can understand.

[00:05:33] Well, my week of foot has been a little weird.

[00:05:36] I've been busy, but also not feeling all too well.

[00:05:38] So I actually haven't played a single game, which is weird.

[00:05:42] And that means I can't really read this week, if that makes sense.

[00:05:47] I wouldn't be fair.

[00:05:48] And I think there's one player in particular that had an SBC today and a promo card today,

[00:05:54] and you could have packed this gold card today.

[00:05:56] I don't think it's unique that you can have three versions of one player on one day.

[00:06:00] Anyways, that player came out and I think I've got a controversial opinion about that card.

[00:06:05] So I can't wait to get into that conversation instead, Envy.

[00:06:09] Yes, we can just start with the SBCs, since I'm guessing that's what you're kind of hinting to here.

[00:06:15] Can first mention...

[00:06:17] We studied all this in and then I guess why you're doing it now.

[00:06:22] We can mention actually the end of an era Nani, which is the first SBC I want to talk about.

[00:06:29] Because he's of course a well-known player in the ultimate team legacy.

[00:06:35] It's around 195,000 coins.

[00:06:38] Usually very fun card.

[00:06:39] Double five star.

[00:06:42] Which we like.

[00:06:43] Trickster plus also quite nice.

[00:06:46] He has technical, flair, finesse shot, chip shot and trivela, which I think kind of represent his playing style.

[00:06:56] He has the roles winger plus plus as a left winger, false nine as a striker, wide playmaker and winger plus plus as a left mid.

[00:07:06] So that's also fair, I think.

[00:07:11] And stats are solid.

[00:07:14] They're not spectacular.

[00:07:15] But I think he could absolutely do a job out wide, I think, already.

[00:07:24] Yeah, for sure.

[00:07:26] Yeah, I like the look of him.

[00:07:30] So, maybe, well, chemistry, he's from Portugal and he plays in Liga Portugal.

[00:07:34] So it's not impossible to find any objective card you probably have in the club.

[00:07:39] If you need an extra link, if you have an icon or two, it's no problem to get him on full chemistry either.

[00:07:45] So...

[00:07:46] Do you think that's what keeps the price down, Evie?

[00:07:49] If that was like a Premier League player or a La Liga player, for example, that'd be probably another 50% more expensive.

[00:07:58] He would be.

[00:07:59] A double five star in the Premier League would of course be much more expensive.

[00:08:02] Yeah.

[00:08:03] But if you give him a hunter, he will have 98 acceleration and 92 sprint speed.

[00:08:10] So I think that should be fine.

[00:08:12] And the shooting would be very good as well.

[00:08:16] So then you can probably use him as a striker as well.

[00:08:19] Because he's got 87 strength, which is nice.

[00:08:22] Very good.

[00:08:23] 82 aggression, 87 jumping and 90 heading accuracy.

[00:08:27] Maybe that's a little bit over the top, but I'll take it.

[00:08:33] So it should make him a very usable striker as well.

[00:08:37] If you want to go 4-4-2, for example.

[00:08:40] Yeah.

[00:08:41] I really like the look of this card.

[00:08:43] And looking at the price, that is actually pretty cheap.

[00:08:46] I just wish it was a right winger.

[00:08:50] Well...

[00:08:50] Wonder why.

[00:08:52] So, but it looks like a quite fun card to use at least.

[00:08:58] So, but there's...

[00:09:00] He's got competition, of course.

[00:09:02] There's quite a lot of good left wingers, but for the nostalgia, I think this is getting done by many and yeah, it should be fun.

[00:09:10] So, rating the SSBC in fees, did they don't do a good do or should do?

[00:09:16] A good do.

[00:09:17] I think if the price was lower, I would make it a should do.

[00:09:20] If it was half price, I think that would actually...

[00:09:23] Oh, that would be a no brainer.

[00:09:25] Yeah.

[00:09:25] Yeah.

[00:09:26] It'd be silly.

[00:09:27] Everybody would do it.

[00:09:28] I would...

[00:09:29] If it was going to be maybe perfectly price or closer to it, then 150k max, I think.

[00:09:36] But it's not bad with the 195k either.

[00:09:39] But yeah, for a must-do, it should have been a little bit cheaper.

[00:09:44] Nah, I just...

[00:09:45] I think for the must-do, it would just be the chemistry links.

[00:09:48] I think that's the reason it's not a must-do.

[00:09:50] I think it's a should do.

[00:09:53] Could do.

[00:09:54] Yeah, fair enough.

[00:09:56] I think that's fair enough.

[00:09:57] It's...

[00:09:59] There's so many options though.

[00:10:00] Will you get a left winger SBC twice a week these days?

[00:10:05] At least it feels like it.

[00:10:06] I didn't actually keep count, but we got plenty of options on left wing as well.

[00:10:10] So I think that's the thing.

[00:10:12] But hey, card design, pretty awesome again.

[00:10:15] Yeah.

[00:10:15] And five star, five star.

[00:10:16] Well, you don't see those cards every single day.

[00:10:18] And looking at this playstyle, I think the trickster is awesome, right?

[00:10:22] On cards like this.

[00:10:23] Yeah, it's very fun.

[00:10:25] Don't need to be a good skiller to get some cool skill moves.

[00:10:28] Just press down the right stick and move the left stick in one direction

[00:10:33] and it will do something really cool.

[00:10:35] So I think even me could look like a skiller using that card.

[00:10:38] Well, I don't understand yourself, but I do think it's a fun card.

[00:10:43] Yeah.

[00:10:43] Yeah, it's a fun card.

[00:10:45] Yeah, cool.

[00:10:46] What else did we get though?

[00:10:48] We got the Premier League Player of the Month.

[00:10:50] Hey!

[00:10:52] And the winner was Mohamed Salah.

[00:10:55] Had a really, really good month.

[00:10:57] SBC is around 455-60,000.

[00:11:03] Which is kind of expected the price, but I have my opinions about the card rating, etc.

[00:11:17] So...

[00:11:18] I think that's good though.

[00:11:20] Yeah.

[00:11:21] It...

[00:11:22] First of all, the card is 90 rated.

[00:11:24] He already had Rush card 90 rated.

[00:11:27] He had an Inform 90 rated.

[00:11:31] And if you compare the Inform with this Player of the Month, it's pretty much the same card.

[00:11:39] And the Inform came out a month ago.

[00:11:42] And that one is, at the moment, 380,000 coins.

[00:11:49] It went down, of course, after this came out.

[00:11:51] But for an untradable Salah, he should...

[00:11:56] If the Inform was probably around this price, 450-60,000, they should have released...

[00:12:02] Since EA insisted on releasing a 90 rated card, I think it should not be more than 300,000 coins for an untradable version.

[00:12:09] That's just me.

[00:12:11] I still think EA should have made him a 91 rated.

[00:12:14] And then, since we got the promo card, could have made the promo card 92 rated.

[00:12:18] But that's me.

[00:12:21] Oh, I agree.

[00:12:22] If you think the Player of the Month should have been a plus one on his latest in form.

[00:12:27] So he should have been a 91.

[00:12:29] Yeah.

[00:12:30] But they've obviously coded the promo card.

[00:12:33] Already, yeah.

[00:12:35] And that's the problem.

[00:12:37] I don't...

[00:12:38] I don't even understand why Salah is in the Globetrotter promo already when he was in the Rush promo, which wasn't that far ago either.

[00:12:47] So...

[00:12:47] And this is coming from a Liverpool fan, eh?

[00:12:49] Yeah, I am a Liverpool fan.

[00:12:51] I love Mohamed Salah.

[00:12:53] It's cool that he gets card, but I...

[00:12:55] It's just too soon to put him in a non-performance promo already after the Rush one.

[00:13:05] And they don't make...

[00:13:07] If they made the Player of the Month card really special based on what he did that month, I would really love it.

[00:13:13] For example, he scored a few penalties during the month.

[00:13:16] His penalties are 82.

[00:13:18] Why don't just make that 90 at least to make it a little bit more different than the other cards?

[00:13:23] If he scored all the goals as penalties, just boost that stat up.

[00:13:28] And he's still got three-star weak foot.

[00:13:30] They could have given him a four-star weak foot.

[00:13:31] Or five-star skill moves.

[00:13:34] Something different from his previous two 90 rated cards.

[00:13:38] It's just...

[00:13:41] I think it's lazy work by EA, to be honest.

[00:13:44] I'm really disappointed that they do these things with the cards.

[00:13:50] It's...

[00:13:51] He's been a really good player for a month.

[00:13:53] It's not like a one-off match.

[00:13:56] So, he should be kind of rewarded with a better card than what he's gotten today.

[00:14:06] Fairish, I think, John?

[00:14:07] Yeah, totally agree.

[00:14:09] I totally agree.

[00:14:11] I totally agree.

[00:14:11] So, is this a good-do shit to or must-do, Invi?

[00:14:16] Don't do all this.

[00:14:18] You don't have any Sala card.

[00:14:20] I heard what you said, but I ignored it.

[00:14:22] I know.

[00:14:23] Good.

[00:14:25] I did it.

[00:14:26] I did this SBC.

[00:14:28] Now, why did you do this SBC, John?

[00:14:30] Yes.

[00:14:31] Well, there's the thing here, though.

[00:14:33] Two reasons.

[00:14:33] One, we did a community vote for which formation we would be releasing for the Patreon supporters in December.

[00:14:42] And everyone knows I don't like playing 4-3-3 in this game, or in previous games, honestly.

[00:14:48] So, everyone voted for 4-3-3.

[00:14:52] Which means I need a right-winger.

[00:14:54] I prefer the one that cuts inside and has a financial.

[00:14:57] There are, Invi, and we checked this out before the show.

[00:15:01] I just didn't have any right-wingers to put in that team.

[00:15:06] The best player I found in my team was Orso Lini.

[00:15:10] I got him on tradable.

[00:15:12] I have, I don't know, I'm looking at my team.

[00:15:15] I think I've got about 19 different left-wingers.

[00:15:18] Also a couple of SBCs.

[00:15:20] And the best right-winger I had was, I think, Cole Palmer.

[00:15:25] Or Orso Lini.

[00:15:27] So, when this card came out, I'm like,

[00:15:29] Yeah, I agree with everything you guys just said.

[00:15:33] But I'm still doing it because it's a right-winger Salah which I can put in my team.

[00:15:36] And I like the 89 red as well, but I don't like having gold cards on my team.

[00:15:41] I know it's silly, but at this stage of the game, it just looks weird.

[00:15:43] You could just have bought the gold card and put one of the cosmetic evolutions and it would look special.

[00:15:50] Yeah, but not this dynamic image.

[00:15:52] But I don't have, the main point is I did not have any coins.

[00:15:56] Like John, I spent it all during Black Friday, Thunderstruck week.

[00:16:03] So, I was like a 20k or something.

[00:16:05] I had 250,000 left at the start of the week.

[00:16:09] Then the Ronaldinho thing came out.

[00:16:10] Now I don't have anything left.

[00:16:13] So, this was my Hail Mary to get a right-winger in.

[00:16:17] And of course, I haven't tested him yet.

[00:16:19] But I'm glad, I always say this with player of the month, I think.

[00:16:22] I'm glad the option is there.

[00:16:24] And if they don't make it special, at least make it reasonably priced.

[00:16:27] And I do think this is reasonably priced.

[00:16:30] Looking at this inform, you can't really do it much cheaper than the inform.

[00:16:33] Because if you would have the inform, you would be bombed out of it.

[00:16:36] And I do also understand why they don't make the 91 since they already had the promotion ready.

[00:16:42] And EA does not decide the player of the month themselves.

[00:16:46] No, but they know probably a few days before they announce it in game or the leakers get it.

[00:16:53] Yes.

[00:16:53] This was leaked to three days ago that he was getting a player of the month.

[00:16:57] And if EA can't reprogram a 91 rated card to a 92 rated card, then they need to redo their whole upgrading system.

[00:17:06] Because that should be doable in one day at worst.

[00:17:10] So knowing how much the full through time we sometimes have on the graphical departments, especially when you have to print cards to give out to displays, which they do, right?

[00:17:23] I don't really know if that's an option.

[00:17:26] Well, I totally get where it's coming from.

[00:17:29] Personally, I don't care much about the rating itself.

[00:17:31] I've said that before, but I agree with your feedback.

[00:17:34] But I did do this card.

[00:17:38] No, no.

[00:17:41] I'm sure it'll be a great card to use.

[00:17:43] We've already talked about it.

[00:17:45] I think it's unfair that he didn't get a 91, but there we go.

[00:17:49] True.

[00:17:50] But at least now I could afford him.

[00:17:51] And there are little to none right wingers coming out as SBCs.

[00:17:59] Yeah.

[00:18:00] Like we got Frija Damat-Starvi, which is right midfielder.

[00:18:05] And we have a left winger every two weeks.

[00:18:08] But there's almost no right wingers.

[00:18:11] Like if you look at today's team as well, there are a few right wingers in it as well.

[00:18:15] So EA should release some kind of evolution that gives a right winger as a position, for example.

[00:18:23] I wouldn't mind that.

[00:18:24] I mean, I do have Son and Barnes and a whole lot of other left wingers who wouldn't mind switching to the other side either.

[00:18:31] But I will.

[00:18:33] It is what it is.

[00:18:35] Of course, you could always see if you can buy one of those new fancy Dembele's instead.

[00:18:39] Oh, wait.

[00:18:42] Bargain.

[00:18:43] Yeah, exactly.

[00:18:45] He comes in at, I don't know.

[00:18:46] 2.4 something.

[00:18:48] 2.4 million.

[00:18:49] Yeah.

[00:18:49] So there's the...

[00:18:51] Oh, well.

[00:18:52] I think we all agree on the card.

[00:18:54] But I'm just saying I did it because of that.

[00:18:57] Have you seen that new upgrade Mexican Striker by the way?

[00:19:01] Mexican Striker.

[00:19:02] Yeah.

[00:19:03] From PSG?

[00:19:04] No, for 5 minutes.

[00:19:06] Yeah.

[00:19:07] Rotor Knockout Jimenez.

[00:19:08] Yes.

[00:19:08] Yes, sir.

[00:19:09] Also got upgraded along with some amazing cards like 2RAM for example.

[00:19:15] Yeah, finally Juventus managed to win a match in the Champions League to get the 2RAM card upgraded.

[00:19:20] Versus City.

[00:19:22] And this will show you how thin my club was.

[00:19:25] I actually put the 2RAM card into an SBC during Black Friday because I had no cards and no coins.

[00:19:31] And it's like, oh dear.

[00:19:34] He would be...

[00:19:35] He looks usable now.

[00:19:36] Yes.

[00:19:40] So...

[00:19:41] True.

[00:19:42] Yeah.

[00:19:43] So the Globetrotters promo based on players that's moved around the world,

[00:19:49] which gives them increased chemistry with club, nation and league, all giving 2 chemistry points,

[00:19:57] which is of course nice.

[00:20:02] But...

[00:20:04] I don't think players like...

[00:20:25] I don't think players like,

[00:20:32] I don't think players have a match.

[00:20:33] I don't think players like the league,

[00:20:37] they don't think players like the league,

[00:20:37] they don't need...

[00:20:37] any boost. This should be a

[00:20:39] promo from

[00:20:41] lower leagues

[00:20:42] in England, and

[00:20:45] leagues like the Polish

[00:20:47] League,

[00:20:49] more like

[00:20:50] even the Norwegian League.

[00:20:53] Maybe, I don't know.

[00:20:56] Maybe

[00:20:57] we'll see a few players as well

[00:20:58] from not normal

[00:21:00] nations. We have

[00:21:02] Lozano, he's from Mexico, so

[00:21:04] that's okay, but I still think they should

[00:21:07] have chosen a different player than Lozano,

[00:21:09] because I'm getting quite

[00:21:12] used to it.

[00:21:13] He's played two matches these two years,

[00:21:15] mate.

[00:21:16] He's been unlucky

[00:21:18] with injuries, but

[00:21:20] they could have selected a different PSV player,

[00:21:22] I think.

[00:21:25] So, there

[00:21:26] are some players from Argentina

[00:21:29] and South America, etc.,

[00:21:31] which is cool,

[00:21:33] but I still think that

[00:21:34] you need to kind of put the brakes

[00:21:36] on these

[00:21:38] top five league players.

[00:21:40] It's like recycling

[00:21:42] players that's been in the rush

[00:21:43] promos, now starting to come into

[00:21:45] this

[00:21:47] Globetrotters,

[00:21:48] and Kante as well.

[00:21:50] We don't...

[00:21:51] Kante doesn't need help with

[00:21:52] chemistry now,

[00:21:54] because people have so many French

[00:21:55] cards,

[00:21:57] icons,

[00:21:58] there's no problem getting them on chemistry,

[00:22:00] so...

[00:22:02] Yeah, I don't know.

[00:22:03] I don't know why EA

[00:22:04] does these things.

[00:22:06] I know there are well-known names,

[00:22:07] but

[00:22:08] there are

[00:22:09] other fans

[00:22:11] liking other players from other leagues

[00:22:13] as well in the world,

[00:22:13] and I do think EA

[00:22:15] need to kind of

[00:22:15] give them something as well.

[00:22:17] I think it's

[00:22:19] getting a little bit

[00:22:21] boring now,

[00:22:22] seeing the same players

[00:22:23] recycled in promo

[00:22:24] after promo.

[00:22:26] Joel?

[00:22:27] I agree.

[00:22:28] I agree.

[00:22:29] I mean, there's a bit about

[00:22:30] fan-favourite,

[00:22:31] Lozano,

[00:22:33] etc.,

[00:22:33] Carrasco.

[00:22:35] Then you've got your

[00:22:36] money cards

[00:22:37] that, you know,

[00:22:38] will drive some

[00:22:39] potential FIFA point

[00:22:40] purchases,

[00:22:41] like people open packs,

[00:22:42] salad,

[00:22:43] and belly,

[00:22:43] etc.,

[00:22:44] but

[00:22:45] Cristiano Ronaldo,

[00:22:46] fantastic cards,

[00:22:47] but

[00:22:47] where are the,

[00:22:49] as Evie said,

[00:22:50] where are the

[00:22:51] Scottish Premier cards?

[00:22:52] You know,

[00:22:53] people at Celtic have played

[00:22:54] for multiple leagues,

[00:22:56] yeah,

[00:22:56] multiple countries.

[00:22:58] Where are they?

[00:22:59] Where are the

[00:23:00] English Championship players?

[00:23:02] My assumption is

[00:23:03] it'll be all tied

[00:23:04] into sponsorships

[00:23:05] and,

[00:23:05] you know,

[00:23:06] Liverpool are one of the

[00:23:07] EA clubs,

[00:23:10] you know,

[00:23:11] Real Madrid are one of the

[00:23:12] EA clubs.

[00:23:13] There'll be

[00:23:14] stuff like that in it.

[00:23:15] I get it.

[00:23:16] It's a balancing act

[00:23:17] for EA to get it right,

[00:23:19] but for me,

[00:23:21] not going to pack

[00:23:21] the big card

[00:23:22] and I don't want

[00:23:23] the low cards

[00:23:24] because there's no

[00:23:25] affinity in it,

[00:23:26] but where do you

[00:23:28] go?

[00:23:30] It's a no-win

[00:23:31] situation for them.

[00:23:32] If there's no big cards,

[00:23:33] if there are no big cards

[00:23:34] like a salad,

[00:23:35] then belly,

[00:23:36] Ronaldo,

[00:23:36] people aren't interested

[00:23:37] in the promotion

[00:23:38] and then,

[00:23:40] but I'm saying I want

[00:23:41] Scottish Premier League

[00:23:41] players,

[00:23:42] but that's,

[00:23:43] I want those players.

[00:23:44] Most other people

[00:23:45] don't care about

[00:23:46] those players

[00:23:46] and it becomes

[00:23:47] a balancing act.

[00:23:48] I don't know what

[00:23:48] your thoughts are,

[00:23:49] John.

[00:23:50] So,

[00:23:51] I think I agree

[00:23:52] on most of those

[00:23:54] stakes.

[00:23:56] We do have cards

[00:23:57] like Laren,

[00:23:58] Oscar,

[00:23:59] Caceres,

[00:24:01] Mari,

[00:24:01] of course,

[00:24:02] Advent Kula.

[00:24:03] I actually played

[00:24:04] a cool-looking card

[00:24:05] on it.

[00:24:07] They're 20k now,

[00:24:08] so not much.

[00:24:10] Piazon,

[00:24:11] there are those cards

[00:24:12] in there

[00:24:14] and,

[00:24:15] like,

[00:24:15] it does,

[00:24:16] we don't need

[00:24:17] a Deleuze card

[00:24:18] or we don't need

[00:24:19] another Erdogan

[00:24:20] or another Conte.

[00:24:22] I definitely agree

[00:24:22] with that.

[00:24:23] I think in a sense,

[00:24:25] and it's fine

[00:24:25] to put some of these

[00:24:26] high-hitting cards in,

[00:24:27] right,

[00:24:27] because of their

[00:24:28] club allegiance,

[00:24:29] but do it like

[00:24:31] they did with Kare,

[00:24:31] put in a Kare card.

[00:24:32] That's fine.

[00:24:34] I mean,

[00:24:34] still sell,

[00:24:35] still,

[00:24:36] still,

[00:24:36] oh,

[00:24:37] almost went wrong there,

[00:24:38] still Chelsea

[00:24:40] and still a card

[00:24:42] definitely worked

[00:24:43] back in.

[00:24:44] And I get

[00:24:45] there's no cards

[00:24:46] left at PSG

[00:24:47] that people

[00:24:48] buy packs for,

[00:24:50] but

[00:24:52] these cards

[00:24:53] you want back

[00:24:53] anyways.

[00:24:55] yeah,

[00:24:57] this,

[00:24:58] Yngwie,

[00:24:58] am I correct

[00:24:58] saying there are

[00:24:59] two teams

[00:24:59] coming from this?

[00:25:02] The EA

[00:25:03] didn't say

[00:25:04] anything

[00:25:05] about

[00:25:07] that,

[00:25:08] actually,

[00:25:09] not officially,

[00:25:11] but I do

[00:25:12] think

[00:25:13] there's

[00:25:15] going to come

[00:25:15] a lot of

[00:25:16] SBCs

[00:25:16] and objectives,

[00:25:18] et cetera.

[00:25:19] So,

[00:25:20] but nothing

[00:25:21] saying that

[00:25:21] this is

[00:25:22] team one

[00:25:22] from what

[00:25:23] I've seen

[00:25:24] on their

[00:25:24] news page

[00:25:26] about the

[00:25:27] promotion.

[00:25:28] The thing

[00:25:29] I actually

[00:25:30] like is

[00:25:31] that there

[00:25:31] are 30

[00:25:32] special

[00:25:33] cards in

[00:25:34] the packs

[00:25:35] now.

[00:25:36] And although

[00:25:36] we don't

[00:25:37] agree on all

[00:25:38] the selection,

[00:25:39] there are

[00:25:39] definitely,

[00:25:40] like there's

[00:25:40] Nagasato,

[00:25:41] Cameroon,

[00:25:42] Savino,

[00:25:43] there are

[00:25:43] really cool

[00:25:44] cards in

[00:25:45] here that

[00:25:46] are very

[00:25:47] much

[00:25:47] affordable

[00:25:50] and I

[00:25:51] think are

[00:25:51] very much

[00:25:52] worth packing

[00:25:53] and are

[00:25:54] from leagues

[00:25:54] that we

[00:25:54] don't see

[00:25:55] much.

[00:25:56] So,

[00:25:57] I get if

[00:25:58] you look at

[00:25:58] the main

[00:25:58] team,

[00:25:59] the feedback

[00:26:00] you just

[00:26:00] said about

[00:26:01] the same

[00:26:01] players

[00:26:02] repeating,

[00:26:02] but there's

[00:26:02] actually a

[00:26:03] lot of

[00:26:03] people,

[00:26:04] players in

[00:26:04] there that

[00:26:04] I actually

[00:26:05] never heard

[00:26:06] about.

[00:26:06] Yeah,

[00:26:06] so I'm

[00:26:08] not sure

[00:26:08] I'm as

[00:26:10] down on

[00:26:11] negative on

[00:26:11] this promotion

[00:26:12] as the

[00:26:13] feedback you've

[00:26:13] just given.

[00:26:15] I've seen

[00:26:16] a few of

[00:26:17] these faces

[00:26:18] on the

[00:26:18] promotions

[00:26:19] on older

[00:26:20] games.

[00:26:22] Yeah,

[00:26:23] but let's

[00:26:24] go,

[00:26:24] let me

[00:26:24] do it.

[00:26:24] I don't

[00:26:25] know Lou,

[00:26:25] but that

[00:26:26] could be

[00:26:26] me.

[00:26:27] I don't

[00:26:27] know

[00:26:27] Barkos,

[00:26:28] Cameroon,

[00:26:29] Nagasato.

[00:26:30] I've not

[00:26:30] heard of

[00:26:31] Savino,

[00:26:31] but I

[00:26:32] guess if

[00:26:32] you're

[00:26:32] City fan

[00:26:33] everyone

[00:26:33] knows.

[00:26:34] Laren is

[00:26:35] he's been

[00:26:36] before.

[00:26:38] He's been

[00:26:38] last year,

[00:26:39] wasn't

[00:26:39] there?

[00:26:39] It's been

[00:26:40] a few

[00:26:40] times.

[00:26:41] Advin Kula

[00:26:42] has been

[00:26:43] before as

[00:26:43] well.

[00:26:44] Savit's

[00:26:44] been before,

[00:26:45] Piazzone

[00:26:45] has been

[00:26:45] before,

[00:26:46] Kacare has

[00:26:47] been before,

[00:26:47] Podolski's

[00:26:48] been before.

[00:26:48] Okay,

[00:26:49] but I don't

[00:26:49] know,

[00:26:50] like I

[00:26:50] only remember

[00:26:51] what I've

[00:26:51] eaten this

[00:26:53] week.

[00:26:54] So I'm

[00:26:54] looking at

[00:26:55] what's been

[00:26:55] out in this

[00:26:56] game so

[00:26:57] far.

[00:26:58] Yeah.

[00:26:59] And I

[00:26:59] don't think

[00:27:00] it's that

[00:27:00] bad.

[00:27:00] But Ryan

[00:27:01] getting a

[00:27:01] card,

[00:27:02] I think

[00:27:02] that's

[00:27:02] brilliant.

[00:27:03] I'm not

[00:27:03] going to

[00:27:04] use him,

[00:27:04] but the

[00:27:05] fact they

[00:27:05] give him

[00:27:06] a card,

[00:27:06] I think

[00:27:06] that's

[00:27:06] pretty cool.

[00:27:08] He fits

[00:27:09] the

[00:27:09] Globetrotter

[00:27:10] promotion,

[00:27:11] yes,

[00:27:12] he does.

[00:27:13] And I

[00:27:13] like the

[00:27:13] design once

[00:27:14] again.

[00:27:15] Yeah,

[00:27:15] I think

[00:27:16] the card

[00:27:17] designs are

[00:27:17] awesome.

[00:27:18] Usually

[00:27:19] very nice

[00:27:20] cards,

[00:27:21] yeah.

[00:27:23] The graphic

[00:27:23] designers are

[00:27:24] doing a

[00:27:24] really good job

[00:27:25] this year.

[00:27:26] If you guys

[00:27:27] have any

[00:27:28] spare time

[00:27:29] left,

[00:27:30] I mean,

[00:27:31] do

[00:27:31] know,

[00:27:31] podcasts

[00:27:31] that could

[00:27:32] use some

[00:27:33] help at

[00:27:33] something.

[00:27:34] That's a

[00:27:35] different story

[00:27:35] though.

[00:27:36] No,

[00:27:36] I don't

[00:27:37] dislike this

[00:27:38] promotion.

[00:27:39] I don't

[00:27:39] think the

[00:27:40] whole Globetrotter

[00:27:41] thing,

[00:27:42] players that

[00:27:42] moved around

[00:27:43] a lot or

[00:27:43] actually twice

[00:27:44] in their lives,

[00:27:45] I'm not sure

[00:27:46] that's like,

[00:27:47] that's a

[00:27:48] thing.

[00:27:49] And they

[00:27:50] could have

[00:27:50] upped it,

[00:27:51] like players

[00:27:51] that have

[00:27:51] five clubs.

[00:27:53] Yeah,

[00:27:53] I think that

[00:27:54] would have

[00:27:54] been more

[00:27:55] unique,

[00:27:56] John,

[00:27:56] is to say

[00:27:57] this select

[00:27:58] group.

[00:27:59] I mean,

[00:28:00] Salah's

[00:28:00] from Egypt

[00:28:01] to Rome

[00:28:01] to Liverpool.

[00:28:02] I don't

[00:28:03] think he

[00:28:03] moved around

[00:28:04] that much,

[00:28:05] right?

[00:28:05] He's been

[00:28:05] in Italy

[00:28:06] as well,

[00:28:06] in Roma.

[00:28:07] Yeah,

[00:28:07] like I said,

[00:28:07] he's been

[00:28:08] in Egypt

[00:28:08] to Rome

[00:28:09] to Austria,

[00:28:11] sorry,

[00:28:11] in Switzerland

[00:28:12] he's been

[00:28:12] as well.

[00:28:13] okay,

[00:28:14] he gets

[00:28:14] support.

[00:28:15] But Dembele

[00:28:15] has been

[00:28:16] in France,

[00:28:16] he's been

[00:28:17] in Germany,

[00:28:17] he's been

[00:28:17] in Spain.

[00:28:20] Yeah,

[00:28:21] I guess,

[00:28:22] it's alright.

[00:28:22] So,

[00:28:23] that's,

[00:28:24] well,

[00:28:25] there are

[00:28:26] many lower

[00:28:26] league players

[00:28:27] that has

[00:28:27] been traveling

[00:28:28] around the

[00:28:28] world,

[00:28:29] lots of

[00:28:29] them.

[00:28:30] He takes

[00:28:31] a real

[00:28:31] desert

[00:28:31] from Rangers.

[00:28:33] For example,

[00:28:34] if they made

[00:28:34] him 92

[00:28:35] rated with

[00:28:35] the same

[00:28:36] stats as

[00:28:37] Kerr,

[00:28:38] I'm pretty

[00:28:39] sure people

[00:28:39] would use

[00:28:40] the coins

[00:28:41] because there

[00:28:41] would be no

[00:28:42] problem with

[00:28:43] chemistry

[00:28:43] either.

[00:28:44] So,

[00:28:44] if the

[00:28:44] card has

[00:28:45] the stats

[00:28:45] and the

[00:28:46] play styles

[00:28:46] and roles,

[00:28:47] they would

[00:28:48] use them.

[00:28:49] And we

[00:28:49] would see

[00:28:49] a little

[00:28:49] bit newer

[00:28:51] faces

[00:28:51] on the

[00:28:54] opponent's

[00:28:54] team screen,

[00:28:55] which I

[00:28:55] think is

[00:28:56] fun.

[00:28:57] But now

[00:28:58] we'll see

[00:28:58] Sala,

[00:28:59] Dembélé,

[00:29:00] Ronaldo,

[00:29:00] Kante,

[00:29:01] Degor.

[00:29:03] Yeah.

[00:29:04] The only

[00:29:05] thing is

[00:29:05] we'll see

[00:29:06] them less

[00:29:07] than we'll

[00:29:07] see

[00:29:07] Ronaldinho.

[00:29:10] And Mbappé,

[00:29:11] I'm facing

[00:29:11] Mbappé every

[00:29:12] match pretty

[00:29:13] much.

[00:29:13] I don't

[00:29:13] know how

[00:29:14] people have

[00:29:15] been packing

[00:29:15] him,

[00:29:15] but I

[00:29:16] guess I

[00:29:16] wasn't

[00:29:17] online at

[00:29:17] the time

[00:29:18] that happened.

[00:29:20] You're getting

[00:29:20] Mbappé from

[00:29:21] the store,

[00:29:22] Evie.

[00:29:24] Ah,

[00:29:24] okay,

[00:29:25] then I

[00:29:25] understand why

[00:29:26] I don't

[00:29:26] have him.

[00:29:27] Yeah,

[00:29:27] exactly.

[00:29:30] Fair enough.

[00:29:31] Ah,

[00:29:31] well,

[00:29:31] anything fancy

[00:29:32] you want to

[00:29:33] discuss or

[00:29:33] any players

[00:29:33] you want to

[00:29:34] highlight here?

[00:29:36] Are there

[00:29:36] any Bundesliga

[00:29:37] players in

[00:29:37] here?

[00:29:37] I'm suddenly

[00:29:38] realizing.

[00:29:41] No,

[00:29:42] I don't

[00:29:42] think so.

[00:29:45] Team 2

[00:29:45] then.

[00:29:47] Nope.

[00:29:48] There is one

[00:29:48] player I

[00:29:49] would like

[00:29:49] to kind of,

[00:29:50] I think it

[00:29:50] could be a

[00:29:51] little bit

[00:29:51] of a

[00:29:53] hidden gem,

[00:29:54] even though

[00:29:54] I've heard

[00:29:55] about him before,

[00:29:56] of course,

[00:29:56] and since he's

[00:29:57] a Blackburn

[00:29:58] legend,

[00:30:00] Rocky

[00:30:01] Santa Cruz.

[00:30:01] Santa Cruz,

[00:30:02] yeah.

[00:30:03] So,

[00:30:05] great stats,

[00:30:06] I think.

[00:30:09] Don't you?

[00:30:10] I don't know

[00:30:10] if you looked

[00:30:11] at him.

[00:30:12] I'm looking

[00:30:12] at him now.

[00:30:13] I needed a

[00:30:14] little bit of

[00:30:14] time to just

[00:30:15] find him in

[00:30:16] the list,

[00:30:16] but he's

[00:30:17] here.

[00:30:17] He's here.

[00:30:18] 12k,

[00:30:19] 13k,

[00:30:20] 4 star,

[00:30:20] 4 star.

[00:30:22] Huge.

[00:30:23] If you put,

[00:30:24] you can give

[00:30:24] him an

[00:30:24] engine,

[00:30:25] for example,

[00:30:27] because the

[00:30:29] attacking

[00:30:29] position,

[00:30:30] finishing,

[00:30:31] composure,

[00:30:33] is more

[00:30:34] than good

[00:30:35] enough.

[00:30:35] Powerheader

[00:30:36] financial and

[00:30:36] power shot,

[00:30:37] press proven

[00:30:38] technical and

[00:30:38] first touch,

[00:30:39] and aerial.

[00:30:40] Aerial and

[00:30:41] powerheader

[00:30:41] plus.

[00:30:42] with 63 and

[00:30:44] 96,

[00:30:45] hidden accuracy.

[00:30:46] So,

[00:30:47] he could be a

[00:30:48] very good target

[00:30:49] man.

[00:30:50] He's also

[00:30:51] target forward

[00:30:51] plus plus.

[00:30:52] Yeah,

[00:30:53] and he has

[00:30:54] all the other

[00:30:54] ones as

[00:30:55] well.

[00:30:55] So,

[00:30:56] as plus.

[00:30:57] So,

[00:30:58] I think he

[00:30:59] could be a

[00:31:00] fun player

[00:31:01] to use

[00:31:03] if you like

[00:31:04] to play.

[00:31:05] Unless you

[00:31:05] want small,

[00:31:06] agile,

[00:31:06] fast strikers,

[00:31:07] then of course,

[00:31:08] I don't think

[00:31:08] you will get

[00:31:09] on with this

[00:31:10] card.

[00:31:10] But if you

[00:31:10] like a little

[00:31:11] bit of

[00:31:12] Darwin

[00:31:13] Nunes type

[00:31:14] of players

[00:31:15] hold on,

[00:31:16] I think this

[00:31:16] could be a

[00:31:17] really fun

[00:31:17] card to

[00:31:18] try.

[00:31:18] Because

[00:31:20] I'm pretty

[00:31:21] sure if you

[00:31:21] just throw

[00:31:22] him in the

[00:31:22] team,

[00:31:23] you'll get

[00:31:24] a full

[00:31:24] chem anyways.

[00:31:26] So,

[00:31:29] I just put

[00:31:30] him in mine

[00:31:30] and he fit

[00:31:31] with full

[00:31:31] chem without

[00:31:32] putting a

[00:31:33] manager or

[00:31:34] Paraguay

[00:31:34] anything.

[00:31:35] Has there

[00:31:36] ever been a

[00:31:36] player in

[00:31:37] this game

[00:31:38] in a team

[00:31:39] we use

[00:31:40] that's

[00:31:40] actually

[00:31:42] this old?

[00:31:43] The dude's

[00:31:44] 43 years

[00:31:45] old.

[00:31:46] I just

[00:31:46] checked.

[00:31:47] I think

[00:31:48] there was...

[00:31:49] And we're

[00:31:49] not talking

[00:31:50] about heroes

[00:31:50] or legends

[00:31:50] or icons.

[00:31:51] No,

[00:31:52] no,

[00:31:52] I was

[00:31:52] thinking

[00:31:53] about the

[00:31:53] guy that

[00:31:57] he plays

[00:31:59] for Celtic.

[00:32:01] Was he

[00:32:02] from Japan?

[00:32:04] Well,

[00:32:05] it could

[00:32:05] be.

[00:32:05] I think

[00:32:06] he's...

[00:32:08] Nakamura

[00:32:08] I think

[00:32:09] was...

[00:32:10] Him as

[00:32:11] well,

[00:32:11] but there's

[00:32:11] another one.

[00:32:12] He's still

[00:32:12] playing in

[00:32:13] Asia and

[00:32:14] I think

[00:32:14] he's like

[00:32:15] 53 years

[00:32:16] old and

[00:32:16] still playing

[00:32:17] professional

[00:32:17] football there.

[00:32:18] He's not

[00:32:18] getting a

[00:32:19] pro on

[00:32:19] card.

[00:32:19] I don't

[00:32:20] think he's

[00:32:20] in any

[00:32:20] of the

[00:32:21] leagues,

[00:32:21] but he

[00:32:21] was,

[00:32:22] I think

[00:32:22] a few

[00:32:22] years ago

[00:32:23] when he

[00:32:23] was around

[00:32:25] 40 plus

[00:32:26] plus plus.

[00:32:27] So

[00:32:28] Ronaldo

[00:32:30] is...

[00:32:30] Not

[00:32:31] 43.

[00:32:32] No,

[00:32:33] but

[00:32:34] he's

[00:32:35] getting

[00:32:36] older.

[00:32:37] How old

[00:32:38] is

[00:32:38] Ronaldo?

[00:32:40] Cristiano

[00:32:40] Ronaldo?

[00:32:41] Yeah.

[00:32:42] Isn't

[00:32:42] he 39

[00:32:43] or something?

[00:32:44] No,

[00:32:44] that's

[00:32:44] really

[00:32:45] old.

[00:32:46] No,

[00:32:46] it's

[00:32:47] not

[00:32:47] old.

[00:32:47] That's

[00:32:48] my age,

[00:32:48] so it's

[00:32:49] old.

[00:32:50] No,

[00:32:51] it's

[00:32:51] not

[00:32:51] old.

[00:32:52] It gives

[00:32:52] me hope.

[00:32:54] Yeah,

[00:32:54] you're

[00:32:54] going to

[00:32:54] do a

[00:32:55] comeback.

[00:32:55] I was

[00:32:56] going to

[00:32:56] see a

[00:32:56] football

[00:32:56] in

[00:32:57] career

[00:32:57] comeback.

[00:32:58] A little

[00:32:59] bit too

[00:32:59] late,

[00:32:59] though.

[00:33:01] But I

[00:33:01] agree.

[00:33:02] Santa

[00:33:02] Cruz is

[00:33:02] actually a

[00:33:03] really cool

[00:33:03] card.

[00:33:04] So cool

[00:33:04] that I'm

[00:33:04] going to

[00:33:04] put him

[00:33:05] on the

[00:33:05] thumbnail.

[00:33:06] I

[00:33:06] think

[00:33:07] it's

[00:33:09] 91

[00:33:09] ball

[00:33:10] control

[00:33:10] 91

[00:33:10] composure.

[00:33:11] Just do

[00:33:11] this card.

[00:33:12] Just pick

[00:33:12] him up

[00:33:12] 12k.

[00:33:13] Yeah,

[00:33:14] you can't

[00:33:14] go wrong.

[00:33:15] It's

[00:33:16] the worst

[00:33:16] to discard

[00:33:17] him and

[00:33:17] lose 2,000

[00:33:18] coins.

[00:33:20] So with

[00:33:20] the place

[00:33:21] cards and

[00:33:21] everything

[00:33:22] and rolls,

[00:33:23] I think

[00:33:24] it's worth

[00:33:26] trying.

[00:33:27] Who's

[00:33:27] Ian Rush,

[00:33:28] mate?

[00:33:28] I'll just

[00:33:28] try Santa

[00:33:29] Cruz this

[00:33:29] weekend.

[00:33:30] Yeah,

[00:33:31] bye

[00:33:31] Ian Rush.

[00:33:33] You're

[00:33:34] now.

[00:33:34] Yeah,

[00:33:34] I might

[00:33:35] sell my

[00:33:36] Ian Rush,

[00:33:36] buy my

[00:33:37] Santa Cruz

[00:33:37] and give

[00:33:37] myself 20,000

[00:33:38] more coins

[00:33:39] in the

[00:33:39] game.

[00:33:40] That's

[00:33:40] a brilliant

[00:33:41] idea.

[00:33:42] If you're

[00:33:42] skinned,

[00:33:43] might be

[00:33:43] an idea,

[00:33:44] right?

[00:33:44] Yeah.

[00:33:45] And I'm

[00:33:46] skinned.

[00:33:47] Oh,

[00:33:47] sorry,

[00:33:47] don't worry

[00:33:48] about that.

[00:33:49] I just

[00:33:50] bought one

[00:33:50] for 11k.

[00:33:52] Yeah,

[00:33:53] I also

[00:33:54] think the

[00:33:54] Oscar card

[00:33:55] would be

[00:33:56] a good

[00:33:56] camp.

[00:33:58] Let's

[00:33:58] check out

[00:33:59] Oscar

[00:33:59] then.

[00:34:00] 57,000.

[00:34:01] Price is

[00:34:02] rising

[00:34:02] in the

[00:34:03] V,

[00:34:03] so you

[00:34:03] want to

[00:34:03] pick

[00:34:04] him up

[00:34:04] before

[00:34:04] things

[00:34:05] go

[00:34:05] south

[00:34:05] here.

[00:34:07] Four

[00:34:07] star,

[00:34:08] four

[00:34:08] star.

[00:34:09] Cam,

[00:34:10] 5'10",

[00:34:11] 179

[00:34:12] centimeters,

[00:34:13] half

[00:34:13] winger,

[00:34:14] plus,

[00:34:14] plus,

[00:34:15] classic,

[00:34:15] 10,

[00:34:15] plus.

[00:34:16] I also

[00:34:16] am really

[00:34:17] curious to

[00:34:17] try a

[00:34:18] classic,

[00:34:18] 10,

[00:34:19] plus,

[00:34:19] plus.

[00:34:20] Can play

[00:34:21] left wing and

[00:34:21] center mid as

[00:34:22] well.

[00:34:23] Great

[00:34:23] passing stats,

[00:34:26] 91 stamina,

[00:34:27] very good

[00:34:28] dribbling,

[00:34:29] good composure,

[00:34:30] good shooting,

[00:34:31] good pace.

[00:34:33] So,

[00:34:35] and he also

[00:34:36] has incisive

[00:34:37] pass normal,

[00:34:38] long,

[00:34:39] long ball

[00:34:40] pass normal

[00:34:41] and tiki-taka

[00:34:41] plus,

[00:34:42] technical,

[00:34:43] first touch,

[00:34:44] finish shot,

[00:34:45] dead ball

[00:34:45] and Trivela,

[00:34:47] so I think he

[00:34:47] could do a

[00:34:48] really good job

[00:34:49] as an

[00:34:50] attacking

[00:34:50] midfielder.

[00:34:52] This is

[00:34:53] pretty cool,

[00:34:53] no?

[00:34:54] I mean,

[00:34:55] there's,

[00:34:56] I mean,

[00:34:56] that's what I

[00:34:57] do like about

[00:34:58] these problems.

[00:34:58] When we stop

[00:34:59] talking about

[00:35:00] these expensive

[00:35:00] card-selling

[00:35:01] players,

[00:35:03] like pack-selling

[00:35:04] players,

[00:35:04] these cards

[00:35:05] actually are

[00:35:06] really cool

[00:35:07] to use.

[00:35:08] I've been

[00:35:08] using,

[00:35:09] I've been

[00:35:09] picking up

[00:35:09] one or two

[00:35:10] off every

[00:35:10] Friday show

[00:35:11] we've done

[00:35:11] and trying

[00:35:12] those for

[00:35:12] a week,

[00:35:13] except the

[00:35:14] previous week,

[00:35:14] of course,

[00:35:16] and it

[00:35:17] never fails

[00:35:17] to surprise

[00:35:18] me.

[00:35:18] And just

[00:35:19] coming back

[00:35:20] to Sonocruz,

[00:35:20] how fun is

[00:35:21] it if your

[00:35:22] 43-year-old

[00:35:23] striker just

[00:35:23] nails you a

[00:35:24] win,

[00:35:24] eh?

[00:35:25] Exactly.

[00:35:28] So that's,

[00:35:29] I think that

[00:35:29] looks like a

[00:35:30] cool card at

[00:35:31] least,

[00:35:32] so for a

[00:35:34] good price,

[00:35:35] I think if

[00:35:37] you wait a

[00:35:37] few days,

[00:35:38] I think it

[00:35:39] might drop a

[00:35:39] little bit more

[00:35:40] as well.

[00:35:41] He's now

[00:35:41] rising,

[00:35:42] so I wouldn't

[00:35:42] be too sure.

[00:35:44] but you

[00:35:44] never know.

[00:35:47] If you

[00:35:48] need a

[00:35:48] right back,

[00:35:49] that Advin

[00:35:49] Kulakard

[00:35:50] looks quite

[00:35:51] good.

[00:35:51] The only

[00:35:51] thing is

[00:35:52] composure is

[00:35:52] 80,

[00:35:53] but the

[00:35:53] rest looks,

[00:35:55] well,

[00:35:55] if you put a

[00:35:56] shadow on

[00:35:56] him,

[00:35:57] I think

[00:35:57] you'll be

[00:35:58] kind of

[00:35:58] fine,

[00:35:59] I guess.

[00:36:00] You don't

[00:36:01] really need a

[00:36:01] composure on a

[00:36:02] fullback,

[00:36:03] though.

[00:36:03] No.

[00:36:04] Wingback plus

[00:36:05] plus,

[00:36:07] that's decent,

[00:36:08] not much.

[00:36:08] He's got whip

[00:36:09] pass and

[00:36:09] power shot,

[00:36:10] but,

[00:36:12] well,

[00:36:13] he's got

[00:36:13] 94 stamina,

[00:36:14] so that's

[00:36:15] not going to

[00:36:15] be an issue.

[00:36:16] The defensive

[00:36:16] warrior is a

[00:36:17] little bit,

[00:36:17] I don't know

[00:36:18] if he's a

[00:36:18] proper,

[00:36:19] he's more of

[00:36:20] an attacking

[00:36:20] wingback.

[00:36:21] Yeah.

[00:36:23] But for that

[00:36:24] price,

[00:36:24] it could be

[00:36:25] at least

[00:36:26] fun to try.

[00:36:27] True.

[00:36:29] It's not

[00:36:30] bad,

[00:36:31] not badly

[00:36:31] priced at all,

[00:36:32] so.

[00:36:33] I don't

[00:36:34] dislike this

[00:36:35] promo so far,

[00:36:36] I'm going to

[00:36:36] be honest,

[00:36:36] like,

[00:36:36] so far.

[00:36:39] That's what

[00:36:40] I'm saying,

[00:36:40] it's not

[00:36:40] John,

[00:36:41] going back

[00:36:41] to your

[00:36:42] point,

[00:36:42] it's the

[00:36:43] big,

[00:36:44] big cards,

[00:36:45] which are

[00:36:46] potentially,

[00:36:47] not a nice

[00:36:47] thing to say,

[00:36:48] but are there

[00:36:48] to sell packs,

[00:36:49] right?

[00:36:50] If you took

[00:36:50] those ones

[00:36:51] out,

[00:36:52] put in some

[00:36:53] faces that we

[00:36:54] didn't know,

[00:36:54] that's all

[00:36:55] we're asking

[00:36:55] for.

[00:36:56] As we said

[00:36:57] at the start,

[00:36:58] these players

[00:36:58] at the lower

[00:36:58] end are

[00:36:59] actually,

[00:37:00] as you've

[00:37:00] talked about

[00:37:00] before in

[00:37:01] the pod,

[00:37:01] they're really

[00:37:02] good cards

[00:37:02] at a really

[00:37:03] good price.

[00:37:04] They're just

[00:37:04] maybe not

[00:37:06] what you're

[00:37:06] looking for,

[00:37:07] because you're

[00:37:07] either looking

[00:37:07] for an

[00:37:08] upgrade,

[00:37:08] so you're

[00:37:09] maybe running

[00:37:09] around with

[00:37:10] an 88,

[00:37:11] 89,

[00:37:11] 98 striker,

[00:37:12] and you're

[00:37:12] looking for

[00:37:13] that step

[00:37:13] up.

[00:37:14] That's not

[00:37:15] the step

[00:37:15] up,

[00:37:16] they're just

[00:37:16] a nice

[00:37:16] fun card,

[00:37:17] or you've

[00:37:18] got a loyalty,

[00:37:19] you're running

[00:37:19] a past and

[00:37:20] present team,

[00:37:20] and you want

[00:37:21] that Rocky

[00:37:21] Santa Cruz,

[00:37:22] or you want

[00:37:23] that,

[00:37:24] you know,

[00:37:24] and I think

[00:37:25] that's the

[00:37:25] balancing act,

[00:37:26] but they're

[00:37:27] actually good.

[00:37:28] For me,

[00:37:31] it's

[00:37:31] Di Lorenzo

[00:37:32] Evo from

[00:37:33] the 86 to

[00:37:34] the 87.

[00:37:35] Is Asvin

[00:37:35] Kulab

[00:37:35] better or worse

[00:37:36] than him?

[00:37:37] It's not.

[00:37:39] It's not

[00:37:40] exactly,

[00:37:41] it's sixes of

[00:37:42] one and half a

[00:37:43] dozen at that

[00:37:44] level.

[00:37:44] Yeah.

[00:37:46] So,

[00:37:47] like I said,

[00:37:47] there's lots of

[00:37:48] really good cards

[00:37:49] at this price,

[00:37:50] and what you

[00:37:51] would call

[00:37:51] old-fashioned

[00:37:52] fun cards,

[00:37:54] they're just

[00:37:54] possibly not

[00:37:55] going to make

[00:37:56] your team

[00:37:57] better than

[00:37:58] what it

[00:37:58] currently is,

[00:37:59] they will just

[00:37:59] be on par

[00:38:00] with what

[00:38:00] you've got,

[00:38:01] but that's

[00:38:02] fine,

[00:38:02] and that's

[00:38:03] what I'm

[00:38:03] saying.

[00:38:03] For me,

[00:38:03] if there were

[00:38:04] some Scottish

[00:38:04] Premier League

[00:38:04] players or a

[00:38:05] St. Johnston

[00:38:05] player,

[00:38:06] I would be

[00:38:07] desperate to

[00:38:08] get that

[00:38:08] player,

[00:38:09] versus if I

[00:38:10] pulled that

[00:38:11] player,

[00:38:11] I would go,

[00:38:12] oh,

[00:38:12] that's nice,

[00:38:14] and that's

[00:38:14] the difference.

[00:38:15] True.

[00:38:16] I won't open

[00:38:16] any packs

[00:38:17] because I'm

[00:38:17] afraid I

[00:38:17] took Lozano

[00:38:19] out of it,

[00:38:19] so.

[00:38:22] I'm just

[00:38:23] kidding,

[00:38:23] of course.

[00:38:24] I'm kidding.

[00:38:24] I got a lot

[00:38:25] of hate last

[00:38:26] time when I

[00:38:26] made the fun

[00:38:28] of a team

[00:38:29] wearing a

[00:38:30] final jersey

[00:38:30] here.

[00:38:31] I respect

[00:38:31] all things,

[00:38:32] guys,

[00:38:32] don't worry,

[00:38:33] if I make

[00:38:33] bad,

[00:38:34] it's just

[00:38:34] banter.

[00:38:35] I just

[00:38:36] sent you

[00:38:37] a comparison

[00:38:38] for Santa

[00:38:40] Cruz.

[00:38:42] You'll have

[00:38:42] a comparison,

[00:38:43] Evie.

[00:38:44] Yeah,

[00:38:44] you know

[00:38:45] me.

[00:38:45] You compare

[00:38:45] him with

[00:38:46] Cristiano

[00:38:46] Ronaldo,

[00:38:46] I'm not

[00:38:46] going to

[00:38:47] share this

[00:38:47] one.

[00:38:48] Yo,

[00:38:48] come on,

[00:38:49] if you

[00:38:49] compare the

[00:38:50] Santa Cruz

[00:38:51] Globetrotter

[00:38:51] with

[00:38:52] Cristiano

[00:38:52] Ronaldo,

[00:38:54] Ronaldo,

[00:38:55] he has

[00:38:57] 467 total

[00:38:58] stats,

[00:38:59] Santa

[00:38:59] Cruz,

[00:39:00] 479.

[00:39:02] Cristiano

[00:39:02] Ronaldo has

[00:39:07] 2296 total

[00:39:08] in-game

[00:39:08] stats,

[00:39:09] and Santa

[00:39:10] Cruz,

[00:39:12] 2312.

[00:39:13] In the

[00:39:13] game,

[00:39:14] we know

[00:39:14] play styles

[00:39:15] influence this

[00:39:16] game a lot,

[00:39:17] and we know

[00:39:18] players will do

[00:39:19] a lot of

[00:39:20] different things

[00:39:21] once they go

[00:39:21] into better

[00:39:22] rules.

[00:39:22] We're not

[00:39:23] comparing

[00:39:24] any main

[00:39:25] stats,

[00:39:26] mate.

[00:39:26] We can't.

[00:39:27] But I'm

[00:39:28] just saying

[00:39:28] that the

[00:39:29] Santa Cruz

[00:39:30] card has

[00:39:30] some really

[00:39:31] good stats.

[00:39:31] Yeah,

[00:39:32] but I already

[00:39:32] bought him

[00:39:33] for 11k,

[00:39:33] so you don't

[00:39:34] have to

[00:39:34] convince me.

[00:39:35] No,

[00:39:35] you don't

[00:39:35] need to

[00:39:35] pack

[00:39:36] Cristiano

[00:39:36] Ronaldo.

[00:39:40] You just

[00:39:40] don't want

[00:39:41] me to

[00:39:41] pack

[00:39:41] Cristiano

[00:39:42] Ronaldo.

[00:39:43] You'll

[00:39:43] pack him

[00:39:43] soon enough.

[00:39:46] I doubt

[00:39:47] that,

[00:39:47] and actually

[00:39:48] I don't

[00:39:48] really,

[00:39:49] I wouldn't

[00:39:50] mind it,

[00:39:51] but it's not

[00:39:51] like I need

[00:39:52] him in my

[00:39:52] team either,

[00:39:53] so it's

[00:39:53] fine.

[00:39:54] It's fine.

[00:39:56] True.

[00:39:57] True.

[00:39:57] What's also

[00:39:58] true,

[00:39:58] that we have

[00:39:59] a recurring

[00:39:59] topic every

[00:40:00] single Friday.

[00:40:01] We've been

[00:40:02] missing out on

[00:40:03] we haven't

[00:40:04] Jota a clue,

[00:40:04] so hopefully

[00:40:05] we'll be able

[00:40:06] to pick that

[00:40:06] up next week

[00:40:08] again,

[00:40:09] because I

[00:40:09] honestly am

[00:40:10] so lost I

[00:40:10] don't even

[00:40:10] know which

[00:40:11] player we

[00:40:11] had last.

[00:40:12] I know,

[00:40:12] because it

[00:40:12] was me that

[00:40:13] picked them

[00:40:13] and you still

[00:40:14] haven't got

[00:40:15] it sorted.

[00:40:16] They want to

[00:40:16] play it?

[00:40:17] I think

[00:40:17] did we

[00:40:20] answer?

[00:40:21] How many

[00:40:21] questions

[00:40:21] did we

[00:40:22] ask?

[00:40:22] We didn't

[00:40:23] know.

[00:40:23] We all

[00:40:24] forget,

[00:40:24] so we

[00:40:24] get four

[00:40:24] questions

[00:40:25] each.

[00:40:25] Let's put

[00:40:26] it like

[00:40:26] this.

[00:40:26] Four

[00:40:27] questions,

[00:40:27] we have

[00:40:27] to gamble

[00:40:27] on the

[00:40:28] fourth.

[00:40:28] Let's do

[00:40:28] it now.

[00:40:29] Okay,

[00:40:29] so we

[00:40:30] have a

[00:40:31] Jota clue.

[00:40:31] So we,

[00:40:32] or actually

[00:40:33] John picks

[00:40:33] a team,

[00:40:34] that player

[00:40:36] has to be

[00:40:37] 85 and

[00:40:38] above,

[00:40:39] I think.

[00:40:39] 87.

[00:40:41] 87 and

[00:40:42] above.

[00:40:43] He had

[00:40:44] picked a

[00:40:44] player,

[00:40:45] I think.

[00:40:45] I had

[00:40:45] picked a

[00:40:45] player and

[00:40:46] you'd

[00:40:46] asked some

[00:40:46] questions,

[00:40:47] but you both

[00:40:47] gambled and

[00:40:48] got it wrong.

[00:40:48] We don't

[00:40:49] know the

[00:40:49] questions

[00:40:50] anymore.

[00:40:51] Each of

[00:40:51] us can

[00:40:51] ask a

[00:40:52] question.

[00:40:52] The one

[00:40:53] that gets

[00:40:54] the answer

[00:40:55] correct gets

[00:40:57] a point.

[00:40:57] I think it

[00:40:58] was 2-1 in

[00:40:58] my advantage,

[00:40:59] if I'm not

[00:41:00] mistaken.

[00:41:00] Yeah,

[00:41:01] correct.

[00:41:01] All right,

[00:41:02] you can ask

[00:41:03] them first

[00:41:03] because John

[00:41:04] has picked

[00:41:04] a player,

[00:41:05] you can ask

[00:41:05] first.

[00:41:06] Let's go.

[00:41:07] You can only

[00:41:08] answer yes

[00:41:08] or no.

[00:41:09] Yeah,

[00:41:09] yeah.

[00:41:10] Does the

[00:41:11] player play

[00:41:11] in Europe?

[00:41:12] Yes.

[00:41:16] Is the

[00:41:17] player

[00:41:17] mill?

[00:41:18] Yes.

[00:41:25] Does the

[00:41:26] player

[00:41:28] play in

[00:41:29] Scotland?

[00:41:30] No.

[00:41:31] There's

[00:41:32] probably not

[00:41:32] many 87

[00:41:33] regions.

[00:41:33] I forgot.

[00:41:35] I was

[00:41:35] thinking like,

[00:41:36] who would

[00:41:36] that be?

[00:41:38] I had a

[00:41:39] brain freeze.

[00:41:41] Does the

[00:41:42] player

[00:41:44] play on

[00:41:44] the mainland

[00:41:45] of Europe?

[00:41:46] Yes.

[00:41:51] I narrowed it

[00:41:52] down there

[00:41:53] for you,

[00:41:53] two more

[00:41:54] questions to

[00:41:54] go.

[00:41:55] Yeah.

[00:41:59] Is

[00:42:02] he

[00:42:03] playing in

[00:42:04] Italy?

[00:42:05] No.

[00:42:08] There are so

[00:42:08] many questions

[00:42:09] you could ask

[00:42:09] him.

[00:42:10] Yeah,

[00:42:10] I know,

[00:42:11] but

[00:42:12] he's

[00:42:13] got brain

[00:42:13] fog.

[00:42:15] Yeah,

[00:42:15] I'm out

[00:42:16] of it

[00:42:16] now.

[00:42:17] Right.

[00:42:18] So,

[00:42:19] is the

[00:42:19] player

[00:42:20] playing

[00:42:21] in

[00:42:22] Western

[00:42:23] Europe?

[00:42:24] Yes.

[00:42:28] There's

[00:42:28] so many

[00:42:29] countries

[00:42:31] and now

[00:42:31] it kind

[00:42:32] of

[00:42:34] there's

[00:42:34] not many

[00:42:35] left now.

[00:42:35] There's

[00:42:36] many players.

[00:42:38] That's

[00:42:38] the problem.

[00:42:39] That's the

[00:42:39] position.

[00:42:41] No.

[00:42:42] I'll

[00:42:43] say

[00:42:43] which

[00:42:43] one

[00:42:43] I

[00:42:43] think

[00:42:44] is.

[00:42:46] Is it

[00:42:47] Mbappé?

[00:42:48] No.

[00:42:49] Is it

[00:42:50] Mbappé?

[00:42:52] Dude!

[00:42:55] We're not

[00:42:55] going to be

[00:42:56] able to

[00:42:56] guess it

[00:42:56] this time.

[00:42:57] If you

[00:42:57] think,

[00:42:58] listen to

[00:42:59] the show,

[00:42:59] watch

[00:43:00] Spotify,

[00:43:02] by the way,

[00:43:03] just let us

[00:43:04] know which

[00:43:04] you think

[00:43:05] it is.

[00:43:05] And if you

[00:43:05] got it right,

[00:43:06] I don't

[00:43:06] know,

[00:43:06] we'll toss

[00:43:07] in

[00:43:07] something.

[00:43:08] see.

[00:43:10] Is it

[00:43:10] Mbappé?

[00:43:11] I don't

[00:43:11] know,

[00:43:11] I'm so

[00:43:12] lost by

[00:43:12] that question

[00:43:13] that I

[00:43:14] don't want

[00:43:14] to just

[00:43:15] look.

[00:43:17] John,

[00:43:18] is the

[00:43:18] player a

[00:43:20] defender?

[00:43:26] Yes.

[00:43:27] Okay,

[00:43:28] so it's

[00:43:28] a center

[00:43:28] defense

[00:43:29] midfielder,

[00:43:29] right?

[00:43:30] No.

[00:43:31] Oh,

[00:43:32] that's a

[00:43:33] sneaky

[00:43:33] question.

[00:43:33] Okay,

[00:43:34] you can

[00:43:34] just take

[00:43:34] one gamble.

[00:43:35] Let's go,

[00:43:35] Yvvi.

[00:43:36] How many

[00:43:37] gambled?

[00:43:38] Just go

[00:43:39] one more.

[00:43:40] You have

[00:43:41] to name

[00:43:41] a player.

[00:43:41] Which one

[00:43:42] is it?

[00:43:45] Is it

[00:43:48] Virgil van

[00:43:49] Dijk?

[00:43:49] No,

[00:43:50] because it's

[00:43:50] on the

[00:43:50] mainland.

[00:43:52] Oh,

[00:43:52] fuck's sake,

[00:43:53] it's

[00:43:53] on the

[00:43:53] island.

[00:43:54] Sorry.

[00:43:55] Oh,

[00:43:55] fuck.

[00:43:56] Sorry.

[00:43:57] When we're

[00:43:58] saying

[00:43:58] defender,

[00:43:59] it's the

[00:44:00] defensive

[00:44:00] line.

[00:44:01] Yes,

[00:44:01] it's a

[00:44:02] goalkeeper.

[00:44:03] That's

[00:44:03] actually what

[00:44:04] he's

[00:44:04] saying.

[00:44:05] Yes.

[00:44:05] Is it

[00:44:05] Thibaut

[00:44:06] Courtois?

[00:44:07] No.

[00:44:08] Okay,

[00:44:08] that was a

[00:44:09] good question.

[00:44:09] It's a

[00:44:09] goalkeeper

[00:44:10] from the

[00:44:11] mainland

[00:44:11] Western

[00:44:12] Europe.

[00:44:12] Next time,

[00:44:13] let's go

[00:44:14] take a

[00:44:15] gamble,

[00:44:15] shall

[00:44:15] you?

[00:44:16] Yeah.

[00:44:18] Is it

[00:44:18] Virgil van

[00:44:19] Dijk?

[00:44:22] He can

[00:44:23] play in

[00:44:23] gold,

[00:44:23] both of

[00:44:24] them.

[00:44:24] We also

[00:44:25] have another

[00:44:25] topic,

[00:44:26] of course,

[00:44:26] on this

[00:44:27] show,

[00:44:28] and that

[00:44:28] topic is

[00:44:29] called,

[00:44:31] if I can

[00:44:32] find the

[00:44:32] right button,

[00:45:13] pick a

[00:45:13] team every

[00:45:14] single week

[00:45:15] from there

[00:45:16] and looks

[00:45:17] at how

[00:45:18] creative it

[00:45:19] is,

[00:45:19] how good

[00:45:19] it is,

[00:45:20] or how

[00:45:21] colorful it

[00:45:21] is.

[00:45:21] We've

[00:45:21] noticed

[00:45:22] last time.

[00:45:22] So,

[00:45:23] Yngwie,

[00:45:23] who got

[00:45:24] the Community

[00:45:24] Team of

[00:45:25] the Week

[00:45:25] last week?

[00:45:26] And also,

[00:45:26] thank you for

[00:45:27] sending in

[00:45:28] a screenshot

[00:45:29] of that

[00:45:30] one in,

[00:45:30] I don't

[00:45:31] know,

[00:45:31] it's 200p

[00:45:33] resolution or

[00:45:34] something.

[00:45:34] So,

[00:45:34] if you're

[00:45:35] looking to

[00:45:35] the video

[00:45:36] show,

[00:45:36] you have

[00:45:37] no idea,

[00:45:37] it's a good

[00:45:38] thing Yngwie

[00:45:38] will read

[00:45:39] out who

[00:45:40] is going

[00:45:41] to be on

[00:45:41] the screen.

[00:45:42] It's Adam's

[00:45:43] team this

[00:45:44] time.

[00:45:46] And,

[00:45:48] well,

[00:45:49] not the

[00:45:49] biggest

[00:45:49] screenshot,

[00:45:50] of course.

[00:45:50] He has

[00:45:51] the new

[00:45:52] before 87

[00:45:53] rated goalkeeper.

[00:45:55] He has

[00:45:55] the succession

[00:45:57] Philippe

[00:45:57] Lamas

[00:45:58] right back.

[00:45:59] End of

[00:46:00] an era

[00:46:00] Varane.

[00:46:01] He has

[00:46:01] the normal

[00:46:02] goal card

[00:46:02] for Van

[00:46:03] Dijk.

[00:46:03] He has

[00:46:04] the 87

[00:46:06] evolution

[00:46:08] Phanamendi

[00:46:08] with the

[00:46:09] red champs

[00:46:11] evolution

[00:46:11] skin,

[00:46:12] which looks

[00:46:13] nice.

[00:46:13] He has

[00:46:14] an 87

[00:46:15] rated evolution

[00:46:16] Kobe

[00:46:16] Manu.

[00:46:17] Looks

[00:46:18] really good.

[00:46:19] He has

[00:46:19] the famous

[00:46:20] Sissoko

[00:46:21] 86 rated,

[00:46:22] so he did

[00:46:22] an evolution

[00:46:23] on him

[00:46:23] as well.

[00:46:24] He also

[00:46:25] did the

[00:46:28] Cruyff

[00:46:29] 88 rated

[00:46:30] SPC,

[00:46:30] which is

[00:46:30] nice,

[00:46:31] and also

[00:46:32] managed to

[00:46:32] do the

[00:46:33] player of

[00:46:33] the

[00:46:33] month,

[00:46:34] Vinicius.

[00:46:35] But a

[00:46:35] positive

[00:46:36] thing,

[00:46:36] he picked

[00:46:37] Grealish

[00:46:38] and not

[00:46:38] Marlon

[00:46:39] that everybody

[00:46:39] else picked

[00:46:40] for the

[00:46:42] last camp

[00:46:43] position

[00:46:43] almost,

[00:46:44] because

[00:46:45] I guess

[00:46:46] he got a

[00:46:46] little bit

[00:46:47] lucky with

[00:46:47] a player

[00:46:48] pick,

[00:46:49] and he

[00:46:49] got the

[00:46:50] succession

[00:46:51] Ronaldinho.

[00:46:54] This

[00:46:55] screams

[00:46:55] meta,

[00:46:56] and also

[00:46:57] his coin

[00:46:58] balance,

[00:46:58] 2.4

[00:46:59] million.

[00:46:59] He still

[00:47:00] got a

[00:47:01] few coins

[00:47:01] to

[00:47:02] upgrade

[00:47:02] the

[00:47:02] team

[00:47:03] still,

[00:47:03] which is

[00:47:04] cool,

[00:47:04] though.

[00:47:06] There are

[00:47:07] some fun

[00:47:07] players,

[00:47:08] lots of

[00:47:08] evolutions,

[00:47:09] which I

[00:47:09] like.

[00:47:12] He's a good

[00:47:13] lad and a

[00:47:14] good player.

[00:47:15] He's a good

[00:47:16] lad,

[00:47:16] he's a good

[00:47:16] player,

[00:47:17] I just

[00:47:18] dislike the

[00:47:18] fact he

[00:47:19] still has

[00:47:19] called

[00:47:20] Virgil von

[00:47:20] Daikinen.

[00:47:22] I have the

[00:47:22] same guy,

[00:47:23] but I gave

[00:47:23] him a purple

[00:47:24] color,

[00:47:25] at least.

[00:47:26] I gave him

[00:47:27] the purple

[00:47:28] color as

[00:47:28] well,

[00:47:30] the

[00:47:30] struggling

[00:47:30] to get

[00:47:31] in my

[00:47:31] team

[00:47:31] now.

[00:47:34] Let's

[00:47:34] talk about

[00:47:35] the

[00:47:35] patch in

[00:47:35] the next

[00:47:36] episode,

[00:47:36] maybe that

[00:47:37] has something

[00:47:37] to do with it,

[00:47:37] but for me,

[00:47:38] it still

[00:47:38] works.

[00:47:39] I quite like

[00:47:40] this team,

[00:47:42] Buffon,

[00:47:42] of course,

[00:47:43] gets a bonus

[00:47:44] point for me

[00:47:44] straight from

[00:47:45] the start,

[00:47:46] but this is

[00:47:47] something,

[00:47:48] though.

[00:47:48] The only

[00:47:49] thing that

[00:47:50] doesn't tilt

[00:47:50] me is the

[00:47:51] fact that

[00:47:52] Vinicius is a

[00:47:53] striker.

[00:47:54] It just

[00:47:54] doesn't compute

[00:47:55] my head.

[00:47:58] I play

[00:47:58] mine as a

[00:47:59] striker,

[00:47:59] John.

[00:48:00] Of course

[00:48:00] you do.

[00:48:03] That's

[00:48:04] totally fine.

[00:48:05] I don't

[00:48:05] think Vinicius

[00:48:06] feels like a

[00:48:07] strike for

[00:48:07] me.

[00:48:08] Having

[00:48:08] Cruyff as a

[00:48:08] cam and

[00:48:09] Vinicius as a

[00:48:09] striker,

[00:48:10] it just

[00:48:10] does my

[00:48:10] head in.

[00:48:11] But that's

[00:48:11] it.

[00:48:13] I quite

[00:48:13] like the

[00:48:14] team.

[00:48:14] 43-1,

[00:48:15] it looks

[00:48:15] like a

[00:48:15] good

[00:48:16] formation

[00:48:16] as well.

[00:48:18] And

[00:48:19] Manu,

[00:48:19] yeah.

[00:48:20] Fun to

[00:48:20] see that

[00:48:20] guard still

[00:48:21] being around

[00:48:22] as well

[00:48:23] with

[00:48:24] Varan,

[00:48:24] of course.

[00:48:25] So Community

[00:48:26] Team of

[00:48:26] the Week,

[00:48:26] you didn't

[00:48:27] win anything

[00:48:27] except for

[00:48:29] fame.

[00:48:30] Well,

[00:48:30] no fortune

[00:48:31] this time.

[00:48:31] Kudos.

[00:48:32] Kudos.

[00:48:33] You get

[00:48:33] kudos.

[00:48:34] Yeah.

[00:48:35] As the

[00:48:35] young kids

[00:48:35] would say.

[00:48:39] John,

[00:48:41] to finish

[00:48:41] off the

[00:48:41] show,

[00:48:42] I have

[00:48:42] heard that

[00:48:43] you like

[00:48:44] to be

[00:48:44] tackled

[00:48:45] on the

[00:48:45] pitch.

[00:48:48] So,

[00:48:49] my

[00:48:50] bugbear,

[00:48:51] there's a

[00:48:52] couple of

[00:48:52] bugbears,

[00:48:53] so,

[00:48:53] through

[00:48:54] balls is

[00:48:54] one of

[00:48:55] them.

[00:48:55] This

[00:48:55] one,

[00:48:55] sit

[00:48:56] back,

[00:48:57] if you

[00:48:57] really

[00:48:57] just

[00:48:58] is

[00:48:58] good.

[00:48:58] However,

[00:48:59] the

[00:49:00] biggest

[00:49:00] bugbear

[00:49:01] currently

[00:49:01] for me

[00:49:02] at the

[00:49:02] moment

[00:49:02] is

[00:49:03] tackling.

[00:49:04] And

[00:49:05] it's

[00:49:05] not

[00:49:05] the

[00:49:05] fact

[00:49:05] it's

[00:49:05] people

[00:49:06] with

[00:49:06] successful

[00:49:07] tackles,

[00:49:07] it's

[00:49:08] people

[00:49:08] that

[00:49:08] spam

[00:49:09] tackling.

[00:49:10] And

[00:49:11] there's

[00:49:12] probably a

[00:49:12] skill level

[00:49:13] here,

[00:49:13] John,

[00:49:13] so somebody

[00:49:13] like you

[00:49:14] will be

[00:49:15] able to

[00:49:15] take

[00:49:15] massive

[00:49:16] advantage

[00:49:16] of

[00:49:16] that.

[00:49:17] But

[00:49:17] for

[00:49:17] the

[00:49:17] average

[00:49:18] player,

[00:49:19] the

[00:49:19] recovery

[00:49:20] time for

[00:49:20] a

[00:49:20] person

[00:49:21] who

[00:49:21] goes

[00:49:21] for a

[00:49:21] missed

[00:49:22] tackle,

[00:49:22] is

[00:49:22] really

[00:49:23] quick.

[00:49:23] And

[00:49:24] they get

[00:49:24] back into

[00:49:24] position to

[00:49:25] do that

[00:49:25] attempted

[00:49:26] tackle again

[00:49:27] and again

[00:49:27] and again.

[00:49:28] So in

[00:49:29] some

[00:49:29] games,

[00:49:30] as you've

[00:49:31] seen in the

[00:49:32] screenshots

[00:49:32] that I've

[00:49:32] shared,

[00:49:33] I'm

[00:49:33] having

[00:49:34] games with

[00:49:34] 60 plus

[00:49:35] tackles

[00:49:36] a game,

[00:49:37] 70 plus

[00:49:38] tackles,

[00:49:38] 80 plus

[00:49:39] tackles,

[00:49:40] I'm even

[00:49:40] getting games

[00:49:40] at 90

[00:49:41] plus

[00:49:41] tackles

[00:49:42] in a

[00:49:42] 91

[00:49:43] minute

[00:49:43] game.

[00:49:43] However,

[00:49:45] Marios

[00:49:45] trumped that

[00:49:46] this week

[00:49:47] somebody had

[00:49:48] 111

[00:49:49] tackles

[00:49:49] in a

[00:49:50] 91

[00:49:50] minute

[00:49:51] game.

[00:49:52] And

[00:49:52] generally,

[00:49:53] I just

[00:49:53] think

[00:49:55] 111

[00:49:57] tackles

[00:49:58] in

[00:50:05] 10

[00:50:05] tackles

[00:50:06] in a

[00:50:07] minute.

[00:50:09] The

[00:50:09] players are

[00:50:10] more on

[00:50:10] the ground

[00:50:10] than

[00:50:11] standing up.

[00:50:13] And

[00:50:13] I think

[00:50:14] for the

[00:50:15] average

[00:50:16] player,

[00:50:17] some games

[00:50:17] that work,

[00:50:18] so the

[00:50:18] last game

[00:50:18] I think

[00:50:19] I shared

[00:50:19] the graphic

[00:50:20] for was

[00:50:21] I won

[00:50:21] 6-4

[00:50:22] in 42

[00:50:23] minutes or

[00:50:24] something.

[00:50:25] It was

[00:50:25] the guy

[00:50:26] just

[00:50:26] spam

[00:50:27] tackle,

[00:50:27] got a

[00:50:27] player sent

[00:50:28] off,

[00:50:28] had two

[00:50:29] penalties,

[00:50:29] yada.

[00:50:30] But the

[00:50:31] game before

[00:50:31] that,

[00:50:32] I lost

[00:50:32] 3-2

[00:50:32] and the

[00:50:33] person had

[00:50:34] I think

[00:50:34] it was

[00:50:35] like

[00:50:35] 89

[00:50:37] tackles

[00:50:37] in the

[00:50:38] 90

[00:50:38] minutes.

[00:50:38] And I

[00:50:39] lost

[00:50:39] the game

[00:50:39] 3-2.

[00:50:41] Two of

[00:50:41] his goals

[00:50:42] came literally

[00:50:42] from sliding

[00:50:43] my defenders

[00:50:45] with his

[00:50:45] strikers and

[00:50:46] he up

[00:50:47] faster than

[00:50:47] my defender

[00:50:48] did to

[00:50:49] put the

[00:50:49] ball past

[00:50:49] my goalkeeper

[00:50:50] twice.

[00:50:51] The third

[00:50:52] one was

[00:50:52] just

[00:50:52] through

[00:50:53] ball

[00:50:53] and

[00:50:53] away.

[00:50:54] I

[00:50:54] just

[00:50:55] think

[00:50:56] the

[00:50:57] game

[00:50:58] is

[00:50:58] football.

[00:50:59] It's not

[00:50:59] slide

[00:51:00] tackle,

[00:51:01] it's not

[00:51:01] pull your

[00:51:01] shirt,

[00:51:02] it's not

[00:51:02] yank,

[00:51:03] yank,

[00:51:03] yank.

[00:51:03] It does

[00:51:04] my

[00:51:04] head in,

[00:51:05] it really

[00:51:05] does.

[00:51:06] And there

[00:51:07] should be

[00:51:07] more of a

[00:51:08] punishment,

[00:51:08] like a

[00:51:09] stall and

[00:51:09] a drain or

[00:51:11] something like

[00:51:11] that.

[00:51:13] If somebody

[00:51:14] does that,

[00:51:14] their team

[00:51:15] will tire and

[00:51:16] then you

[00:51:16] can take

[00:51:17] advantage of

[00:51:17] that possibly

[00:51:18] later.

[00:51:18] But at the

[00:51:19] minute,

[00:51:19] that's not

[00:51:19] happening and

[00:51:20] it just is

[00:51:21] an infuriating

[00:51:22] situation.

[00:51:23] And I've

[00:51:24] a couple of

[00:51:24] things on

[00:51:24] Twitter and

[00:51:25] other people

[00:51:25] are sharing

[00:51:26] the same

[00:51:27] thoughts and

[00:51:27] the same

[00:51:28] screenshots

[00:51:28] where it's

[00:51:29] 70,

[00:51:29] 80,

[00:51:30] 90

[00:51:30] tackers in

[00:51:30] a game.

[00:51:31] And it's

[00:51:31] ridiculous.

[00:51:32] I don't

[00:51:33] think you

[00:51:33] get that

[00:51:33] in elite

[00:51:34] div 1,

[00:51:35] div 2.

[00:51:36] It's

[00:51:36] obviously

[00:51:36] down in

[00:51:37] the

[00:51:37] lower

[00:51:37] divisions

[00:51:38] that we're

[00:51:38] having these

[00:51:39] challenges,

[00:51:39] but it is

[00:51:41] not a pleasant

[00:51:42] gaming experience.

[00:51:45] Yeah.

[00:51:47] So I get

[00:51:48] you.

[00:51:49] Here's the

[00:51:50] thing though,

[00:51:51] I don't get

[00:51:52] these matches

[00:51:52] at all.

[00:51:54] So I have

[00:51:54] no experiences.

[00:51:56] Like if I

[00:51:56] see someone

[00:51:57] tackle six

[00:51:57] times in a

[00:51:58] minute,

[00:51:58] I'm like,

[00:51:59] well,

[00:51:59] it's probably

[00:51:59] not going

[00:52:00] to be a

[00:52:00] really hard

[00:52:00] match.

[00:52:01] I'll just

[00:52:01] play around

[00:52:01] until

[00:52:02] do a

[00:52:02] tackle.

[00:52:03] I'll just

[00:52:04] pass my

[00:52:05] way around

[00:52:05] it and

[00:52:05] probably win.

[00:52:07] So it

[00:52:08] never tilts

[00:52:08] me or

[00:52:09] don't notice

[00:52:10] it,

[00:52:10] but I

[00:52:10] don't face

[00:52:11] it either.

[00:52:11] And I'm

[00:52:11] not even

[00:52:12] that much

[00:52:12] up because

[00:52:13] I haven't

[00:52:13] played much.

[00:52:13] I think

[00:52:14] I'm in

[00:52:14] Diff2

[00:52:15] currently.

[00:52:17] That's

[00:52:18] what I'm

[00:52:18] saying.

[00:52:18] I think

[00:52:21] it's

[00:52:21] twice.

[00:52:22] I think

[00:52:22] there's

[00:52:22] two sides

[00:52:23] of it.

[00:52:23] One side

[00:52:24] is I

[00:52:25] think it

[00:52:26] happens

[00:52:26] more,

[00:52:27] like you

[00:52:27] said,

[00:52:27] in lower

[00:52:27] division,

[00:52:28] lower,

[00:52:28] more lower

[00:52:29] division,

[00:52:30] not as

[00:52:30] high

[00:52:30] division.

[00:52:30] I don't

[00:52:31] mean to

[00:52:31] neglect

[00:52:31] anything or

[00:52:32] be negative

[00:52:33] about where

[00:52:34] you're playing

[00:52:34] it.

[00:52:36] So I

[00:52:36] think it

[00:52:36] happens

[00:52:37] less in

[00:52:38] higher

[00:52:38] divisions.

[00:52:38] Let's

[00:52:38] put it

[00:52:39] that way.

[00:52:40] The other

[00:52:40] thing is

[00:52:42] I'm

[00:52:42] also not

[00:52:43] bothered by

[00:52:44] what my

[00:52:44] opponent does.

[00:52:46] And I

[00:52:47] think that's

[00:52:47] the other

[00:52:47] part of it.

[00:52:48] You see

[00:52:48] 10

[00:52:49] tackles or

[00:52:49] you see

[00:52:50] 20

[00:52:50] through

[00:52:50] balls and

[00:52:51] you get

[00:52:51] frustrated

[00:52:52] by the

[00:52:52] fact that

[00:52:53] one of

[00:52:54] them could

[00:52:55] work or

[00:52:55] you're worried

[00:52:56] about the

[00:52:57] fact that it

[00:52:57] might work

[00:52:58] someday in

[00:52:59] that match,

[00:53:00] which tilts you

[00:53:01] already,

[00:53:01] which will

[00:53:02] probably make

[00:53:02] sure it will

[00:53:03] start to work

[00:53:04] soon enough.

[00:53:05] And I

[00:53:06] see six

[00:53:07] tackles in

[00:53:07] a minute and

[00:53:07] I'm like,

[00:53:08] look at this

[00:53:09] guy, I'll

[00:53:10] left it off

[00:53:10] and I'll

[00:53:10] win.

[00:53:12] So there's

[00:53:13] two sides of

[00:53:13] it.

[00:53:14] I think

[00:53:14] there's one,

[00:53:15] you see it

[00:53:15] more often,

[00:53:16] that is also

[00:53:17] why it might

[00:53:17] tilt you.

[00:53:18] Two, I

[00:53:19] think it

[00:53:19] tilts you and

[00:53:20] that's why you

[00:53:21] start noticing

[00:53:21] it more as

[00:53:22] well.

[00:53:23] Possibly.

[00:53:23] I do look

[00:53:24] at the stats,

[00:53:25] John, most

[00:53:26] games just to

[00:53:26] see.

[00:53:27] Oh,

[00:53:27] seriously, I've

[00:53:28] never noticed

[00:53:28] that.

[00:53:29] But some

[00:53:30] of it's like

[00:53:30] my possession,

[00:53:31] my passing

[00:53:32] accuracy,

[00:53:32] it's all those

[00:53:33] things I want to

[00:53:33] try and work

[00:53:34] on.

[00:53:35] But I

[00:53:36] think there's

[00:53:36] that, like I

[00:53:36] said at the

[00:53:37] very start of

[00:53:37] this conversation

[00:53:38] is there's

[00:53:38] twofold.

[00:53:39] People in

[00:53:39] higher divisions

[00:53:41] will be able

[00:53:42] to take

[00:53:42] advantage of

[00:53:43] people that

[00:53:43] excessively

[00:53:44] tackle.

[00:53:44] You just

[00:53:44] said it

[00:53:45] yourself,

[00:53:45] if somebody

[00:53:45] does six

[00:53:46] tackles in

[00:53:46] a minute,

[00:53:46] you'll go

[00:53:47] ha ha,

[00:53:48] laugh this

[00:53:48] off because

[00:53:49] I know I

[00:53:50] will be able

[00:53:50] to beat

[00:53:51] him.

[00:53:52] For that

[00:53:54] less skilled

[00:53:54] player, shall

[00:53:55] we say,

[00:53:55] the people

[00:53:56] under elite

[00:53:57] one, two,

[00:53:58] possibly even

[00:53:58] three, so

[00:53:59] when I was

[00:54:00] in four,

[00:54:00] now I'm

[00:54:01] in five,

[00:54:01] whatever,

[00:54:03] I feel the

[00:54:03] recovery of

[00:54:04] those tackles

[00:54:05] doesn't always

[00:54:06] mean you get

[00:54:07] the advantage

[00:54:08] because you're

[00:54:08] not that good

[00:54:09] a player versus

[00:54:11] players in

[00:54:11] div two and

[00:54:12] div one that

[00:54:13] will take

[00:54:13] advantage.

[00:54:13] So I think

[00:54:15] EA need to

[00:54:17] generally just

[00:54:18] look at that

[00:54:18] whole situation

[00:54:19] and say,

[00:54:19] how can you

[00:54:20] make 80

[00:54:22] passes in

[00:54:23] a game and

[00:54:24] 90 tackles?

[00:54:26] It's just,

[00:54:28] yeah, I guess

[00:54:29] it tilts me

[00:54:30] usually because

[00:54:31] the games are

[00:54:31] hard or,

[00:54:32] you know,

[00:54:34] you're right,

[00:54:35] sometimes it's

[00:54:35] like, oh,

[00:54:36] you know what,

[00:54:36] I'm so glad I

[00:54:37] beat you because

[00:54:38] you're just a

[00:54:38] tackling,

[00:54:39] spamming,

[00:54:40] whatever.

[00:54:42] But the

[00:54:42] games,

[00:54:43] I lose,

[00:54:43] yeah,

[00:54:43] you're right,

[00:54:44] I come off

[00:54:44] tilted,

[00:54:44] it's like,

[00:54:45] this shouldn't

[00:54:46] be allowed,

[00:54:46] what's going

[00:54:47] on?

[00:54:47] But it's a

[00:54:49] flawed system,

[00:54:50] you should not

[00:54:50] be able to

[00:54:51] tackle that

[00:54:51] often without

[00:54:52] a detriment

[00:54:53] to stamina

[00:54:54] or something

[00:54:55] else,

[00:54:56] that's all

[00:54:56] I'm saying.

[00:54:57] Inge,

[00:54:58] what's your

[00:54:58] thoughts about

[00:54:59] it before I

[00:54:59] go back on

[00:55:00] that?

[00:55:00] Yeah,

[00:55:01] I agree here

[00:55:02] that there

[00:55:03] should be some

[00:55:04] kind of

[00:55:04] punishment if

[00:55:05] your player

[00:55:06] is slight

[00:55:06] tackle,

[00:55:07] it should take

[00:55:07] a little bit

[00:55:08] longer to

[00:55:09] get up,

[00:55:10] be a little

[00:55:10] bit more

[00:55:11] realistic and

[00:55:12] it would be

[00:55:13] an advantage

[00:55:13] if the

[00:55:15] defender missed

[00:55:16] a slight

[00:55:17] tackle because

[00:55:17] he shouldn't

[00:55:18] be up in

[00:55:19] half a second

[00:55:20] and attack

[00:55:21] you again.

[00:55:22] So,

[00:55:24] I agree

[00:55:25] with that,

[00:55:26] it's very

[00:55:27] unrealistic and

[00:55:28] shouldn't

[00:55:28] happen.

[00:55:31] Sometimes,

[00:55:32] if you feel

[00:55:33] that you have

[00:55:34] three or four

[00:55:35] players around

[00:55:35] slight tackling,

[00:55:36] it's not

[00:55:37] always easy

[00:55:38] to keep

[00:55:39] your cool

[00:55:39] and get

[00:55:40] the ball

[00:55:40] away.

[00:55:41] So,

[00:55:42] I've been

[00:55:43] there as

[00:55:43] well,

[00:55:44] frustrated.

[00:55:45] So,

[00:55:45] it's not

[00:55:46] always easy

[00:55:47] but the

[00:55:48] best players

[00:55:49] have no

[00:55:49] problem with

[00:55:50] it and

[00:55:50] that's why

[00:55:51] they are

[00:55:51] the good

[00:55:51] players as

[00:55:52] well.

[00:55:52] And I'm

[00:55:53] not there

[00:55:54] so I'm

[00:55:55] with Mr.

[00:55:57] St.

[00:55:58] Johnston

[00:55:58] here.

[00:55:59] Well,

[00:55:59] I'm not

[00:56:00] against you

[00:56:00] as well

[00:56:01] either.

[00:56:02] John,

[00:56:02] I think

[00:56:03] I 100%

[00:56:05] agree on

[00:56:05] the fact

[00:56:06] that

[00:56:06] tackling,

[00:56:07] making a

[00:56:07] sliding

[00:56:08] tackle isn't

[00:56:08] punished.

[00:56:09] Right?

[00:56:10] I think

[00:56:11] you get a

[00:56:12] red card

[00:56:12] from looking

[00:56:13] at someone

[00:56:14] which is

[00:56:14] center defender

[00:56:15] but you

[00:56:16] can tackle

[00:56:16] someone in

[00:56:17] midfield

[00:56:17] from the

[00:56:18] back

[00:56:18] hitting the

[00:56:19] ball and

[00:56:19] the player

[00:56:20] and sometimes

[00:56:20] just easily

[00:56:21] get away

[00:56:21] with it.

[00:56:22] I do

[00:56:23] think

[00:56:23] tackling

[00:56:24] should be

[00:56:24] more risky

[00:56:25] or more

[00:56:26] prone to

[00:56:27] getting at

[00:56:28] least a

[00:56:28] card.

[00:56:31] I still

[00:56:31] don't mind

[00:56:32] it too much

[00:56:32] because I

[00:56:33] don't face

[00:56:33] it too

[00:56:33] much but

[00:56:35] I think

[00:56:35] the recovery

[00:56:36] time and

[00:56:36] especially

[00:56:37] the fact

[00:56:37] you could

[00:56:37] just keep

[00:56:38] doing it.

[00:56:39] You hardly

[00:56:40] see a

[00:56:40] sliding

[00:56:40] tackle in

[00:56:41] real football

[00:56:42] these days.

[00:56:42] You hardly

[00:56:43] see it.

[00:56:44] I think

[00:56:44] the way

[00:56:45] we defend

[00:56:45] an FC is

[00:56:46] more covering

[00:56:47] the lines

[00:56:47] instead of

[00:56:48] chasing the

[00:56:48] players down

[00:56:49] which also

[00:56:50] should mean

[00:56:50] tackling or

[00:56:51] sliding

[00:56:52] tackling.

[00:56:52] That's

[00:56:52] actually what

[00:56:53] we're talking

[00:56:53] about of

[00:56:53] course.

[00:56:54] Sliding

[00:56:54] tackles

[00:56:55] should be

[00:56:56] far less

[00:56:58] easy to

[00:56:59] pull off

[00:56:59] or far

[00:57:00] more risky

[00:57:00] to pull

[00:57:01] off just

[00:57:01] like it is

[00:57:02] in real

[00:57:02] life.

[00:57:03] You'll

[00:57:03] be fair

[00:57:03] John,

[00:57:03] a lot

[00:57:04] of it's

[00:57:04] not even

[00:57:04] it's just

[00:57:05] you'll

[00:57:06] see it

[00:57:06] as that

[00:57:07] in game

[00:57:07] it's the

[00:57:08] leg goes

[00:57:09] in for

[00:57:09] an attempted

[00:57:10] tackle but

[00:57:11] it's not

[00:57:13] always there.

[00:57:13] Slide tackling

[00:57:14] is usually

[00:57:14] high and

[00:57:15] there's games

[00:57:16] that you

[00:57:16] maybe are

[00:57:17] getting 90

[00:57:17] tackles

[00:57:18] it'll probably

[00:57:18] be 60

[00:57:19] tackles

[00:57:20] 30 slide

[00:57:20] tackles.

[00:57:21] But the

[00:57:22] whole thing

[00:57:22] is you'll

[00:57:23] see the

[00:57:24] hand goes

[00:57:25] the foot

[00:57:25] goes like

[00:57:26] the motion

[00:57:27] as the

[00:57:27] leg goes

[00:57:28] down

[00:57:28] misses the

[00:57:29] player but

[00:57:29] they recover

[00:57:30] really fast

[00:57:30] and quite

[00:57:31] often it's

[00:57:32] that whole

[00:57:32] momentum

[00:57:33] of I

[00:57:34] don't do

[00:57:35] that.

[00:57:35] I'm not

[00:57:35] a skiller

[00:57:36] as you

[00:57:36] know I'm

[00:57:36] very much

[00:57:37] a pass

[00:57:37] guy 150

[00:57:38] to 200

[00:57:39] passes in

[00:57:40] a game

[00:57:40] usually with

[00:57:41] quite high

[00:57:41] possession

[00:57:42] because I

[00:57:43] recycle the

[00:57:44] ball but

[00:57:44] it's really

[00:57:44] hard to

[00:57:46] go forward

[00:57:47] when bodies

[00:57:47] are literally

[00:57:48] just stomping

[00:57:50] around but

[00:57:51] that's just

[00:57:52] my mindset

[00:57:53] at the minute.

[00:57:54] I just

[00:57:54] wanted to

[00:57:55] raise it

[00:57:55] because it

[00:57:56] annoys me.

[00:57:57] And that's

[00:57:58] fair enough

[00:57:59] and if there's

[00:58:00] something that

[00:58:01] annoys you

[00:58:01] when you're

[00:58:02] listening to

[00:58:02] the show

[00:58:02] let us

[00:58:03] know because

[00:58:03] I am

[00:58:04] always looking

[00:58:05] at feedback

[00:58:05] and it's

[00:58:06] also because

[00:58:06] of course

[00:58:07] with food

[00:58:07] coaching

[00:58:07] there's

[00:58:08] things people

[00:58:08] find bothering

[00:58:10] or hard

[00:58:11] to work

[00:58:11] at.

[00:58:12] Just let

[00:58:12] us know

[00:58:13] in the

[00:58:13] food and

[00:58:13] review

[00:58:13] channels

[00:58:14] as well

[00:58:14] so we

[00:58:15] can see

[00:58:16] if we

[00:58:16] can maybe

[00:58:16] help

[00:58:17] with that

[00:58:18] once we

[00:58:18] pay attention

[00:58:19] to it.

[00:58:20] So that's

[00:58:20] always good

[00:58:20] feedback.

[00:58:22] Thank you

[00:58:22] for that John

[00:58:23] and hopefully

[00:58:23] it gets

[00:58:24] better.

[00:58:25] Fingers

[00:58:25] crossed.

[00:58:26] If I can

[00:58:26] get to a

[00:58:26] higher division

[00:58:27] I wouldn't

[00:58:27] have that

[00:58:28] problem

[00:58:28] to face.

[00:58:30] Well you

[00:58:30] sometimes do

[00:58:31] have it on

[00:58:31] like qualifiers

[00:58:33] and stuff.

[00:58:33] I see it

[00:58:34] there as

[00:58:34] well but

[00:58:35] those usually

[00:58:35] aren't the

[00:58:36] matches we

[00:58:37] I struggle

[00:58:38] with too

[00:58:38] hard.

[00:58:39] But that

[00:58:40] goes I mean

[00:58:41] I'm playing

[00:58:41] a 433

[00:58:42] this week

[00:58:43] so it

[00:58:44] might be

[00:58:44] a whole

[00:58:45] different story

[00:58:45] next week

[00:58:45] for me.

[00:58:47] Can't wait

[00:58:47] for that

[00:58:48] feedback

[00:58:48] unfortunately.

[00:58:49] So great

[00:58:50] feedback.

[00:58:51] We'll be

[00:58:51] back next

[00:58:52] week

[00:58:54] probably with

[00:58:54] one or two

[00:58:55] shorts depending

[00:58:55] on the content

[00:58:56] that comes

[00:58:56] out.

[00:58:57] Of course

[00:58:57] we've got

[00:58:57] the Tuesday

[00:58:58] show coming

[00:58:59] and another

[00:59:00] Friday show

[00:59:00] but then

[00:59:01] half the

[00:59:02] next Friday

[00:59:03] it is time

[00:59:04] for the

[00:59:04] holiday break.

[00:59:06] That means

[00:59:07] the team

[00:59:07] will be

[00:59:08] away or

[00:59:09] actually not

[00:59:09] recording a

[00:59:10] show until

[00:59:11] we're back

[00:59:11] in January.

[00:59:13] So two more

[00:59:14] shows at least

[00:59:14] until we take

[00:59:15] a little break

[00:59:16] but who knows

[00:59:17] how the

[00:59:18] feature look

[00:59:18] will be

[00:59:19] active on

[00:59:19] the discord

[00:59:19] will be

[00:59:20] active on

[00:59:20] the channels

[00:59:20] and of

[00:59:21] course

[00:59:21] we'll be

[00:59:22] making those

[00:59:22] new videos

[00:59:22] about the

[00:59:23] new

[00:59:23] community

[00:59:26] custom tactics

[00:59:27] but no

[00:59:28] shows in

[00:59:29] the week

[00:59:29] from Christmas

[00:59:30] and the

[00:59:31] week after

[00:59:31] Christmas.

[00:59:33] Thank you

[00:59:33] guys so

[00:59:34] much.

[00:59:34] Hope you

[00:59:35] have a

[00:59:35] terrific

[00:59:36] weekend.

[00:59:36] Don't keep

[00:59:37] getting these

[00:59:37] awesome shirts

[00:59:38] and also

[00:59:38] know another

[00:59:39] black shirt

[00:59:40] that's actually

[00:59:40] pretty cool

[00:59:42] looking at the

[00:59:42] video show.

[00:59:43] Talk soon.

[00:59:44] Leave us

[00:59:44] with one

[00:59:45] thing left

[00:59:46] for us to

[00:59:46] do and

[00:59:47] that is to

[00:59:47] drop it

[00:59:48] drop it

[00:59:49] drop it

[00:59:50] drop it

[00:59:50] you

[00:59:54] you

[00:59:56] you

[01:00:01] you

[01:00:02] you

[01:00:02] you
