[00:00:38] show. Hello foodies, the grind of the year is over with team of the season premier league
[00:00:47] behind us but is the bundesliga team of the season worth having another go for as well?
[00:00:52] We'll find out today what the premier league thoughts has brought us and how long can we keep
[00:00:57] this grind going. My name is John and I'll be your host today and we are FUT IN REVIEW episode
[00:01:03] 609 and I'm not making this show alone. I am joined by Mr. Halahola or how do you want to
[00:01:10] call it? We call him Mr. FUT database. It's not all that then, Yngwie. Hello hello. Hello
[00:01:18] and of course we are joined by Mr. Teddy Bear and if you're wondering why he's called the teddy
[00:01:23] bear well you gotta go to Crete next week to find out. It's none other than Chris.
[00:01:29] Guten Abend folks. Oh a German even mate. No I just looked up google translate hope
[00:01:36] for that's how you say it. Guten Abend, it's not that bad actually. We'll practice some
[00:01:42] Greek with you next week. No problem mate. You have to do it now during team of the
[00:01:47] season. This has to be a recurring item though. Do it in the language of the
[00:01:52] team of the season that's available mate. Nah let's do that then. As long as it's not
[00:01:57] English I'm fine. I can't wait for you to get a proper team. Yngwie, you are wearing an
[00:02:04] amazing kit. I see it has arrived. Show it off for the camera for a sec. If you're
[00:02:10] listening Yngwie is wearing this special 600 episode anniversary jersey so looking good on
[00:02:16] my friend. Glad it finally arrived almost at 610 in Norway. Yeah that's good. Happy.
[00:02:26] Awesome awesome. So guys team of the season Primalink is behind us now. I can't remember
[00:02:34] the time I spent so much time on the actual app. I've spent so much time on the app that
[00:02:40] actually got some soft bands. I didn't actually didn't know it was there. There was something
[00:02:46] called a soft band but Yngwie has taught me that's actually the case. So there is something
[00:02:53] like too much grinding. If I'm quite honest guys after this week I am so done with opening
[00:02:59] packs trying to do player exchanges seeing duplicates flying around tossing team of
[00:03:05] season players into duplicates to get even more duplicates. I might sit this one out.
[00:03:15] How has your week been in Primalink team of the season and how do you go to go at
[00:03:22] Bundesliga Yngwie? It's been awful for me. So Mr. Positive is back. Yeah but I just wanted
[00:03:33] a McAllister but of course I never got and I think I got four players from the
[00:03:39] Premier League. I might have got four McAllisters on my own. So yeah that was really annoying
[00:03:45] that I did so many player picks and a premium upgrades etc and exchange packs and
[00:03:52] yeah it wasn't anything good and I got a few of the Ju-Ju and Anders and those
[00:04:00] players. Russo I got a few times but other than that there was pretty much nothing so
[00:04:10] it's a little bit demoralizing. Red picks, what did you get in your red picks?
[00:04:15] Was it worth playing Wickeling for? No and nothing good there. Nothing good from
[00:04:21] squad battles. Nothing good from rivals. Well rivals no the only thing I got something good
[00:04:27] from was the Premier League guaranteed one. I got the cold Palmer that's a good card
[00:04:33] other than that it's yeah dark. Chris how's it been for you? It's been okay. I've been grinding
[00:04:45] like I'm in a rap video to be honest with you. I have to say I've got a Juke McAllister
[00:04:52] at the moment who's sitting alongside two S-Jupans there's nothing really to do with them. That's
[00:04:57] the problem I've found. I've had too many Dupes. I'm sick of exchanges. I was thinking about the
[00:05:06] Lauren, no it wasn't Lauren card. What's the card doing with the right winger at the
[00:05:09] moment? English out at the moment. Chloe Kelly. Chloe Kelly. I was thinking of potentially
[00:05:13] doing that one but I've got a problem in that I can't really fit around the team so
[00:05:18] for me it's the Dupes is the problem and not having the players. I've packed Alisson twice.
[00:05:24] I bought Hemp who's really good, really enjoy that but I have to say star of the show
[00:05:28] is definitely Havertz. He has those extra long legs which should be a play style plus on its
[00:05:35] own. He sits there with Socrates you know you've got Paddy the baddie. These guys who are tall
[00:05:40] and skinny just seem to really fit the game. I was thinking of putting him back his left
[00:05:45] pack. I play him wide left but he's been tremendous. He really helped my weekend
[00:05:49] league. I was struggling to start with and then done him, finished the SBC and brought
[00:05:53] him into the weekend league and managed to live and win so I think it was mostly down to him.
[00:05:59] It doesn't sound too bad though honestly. No I enjoyed it. I must admit I didn't pack a
[00:06:04] Virgil van Dijk, didn't pack a Harlan but didn't actually do the Prem Tots guarantee pack
[00:06:10] either because I had so many of those cards already. How did you do John? I'm sure you're
[00:06:14] on the red list. Come on who did you get Virgil van Dijk, Harlan, Sain. No no none of them.
[00:06:21] I did pack anyone everyone else quite honestly so my red pick was Sonne Garnaccio. Garnaccio,
[00:06:29] Garnaccio sorry didn't mean that one. Both in my team Sonne is brilliant. I really like Garnaccio
[00:06:36] as well so far. Got Conte but I got that on a Friday night already I think. Got Harnsko
[00:06:43] anyone still remind I have to remind about the fact I said last week that Harnsko is probably
[00:06:49] very underrated. Well he tripled in price and I think more people saw it was actually really good.
[00:06:55] So Dest right back. Loved Dest so far. Packed a whole lot of Greenwoods, McAllister's,
[00:07:04] Gabriel's which Gabriel I didn't like. This is my player in review.
[00:07:09] I didn't find them too good and if people don't like Kunate with his circle of turning
[00:07:15] then you don't like Gabriel either I think. One player that really surprised me was Deuce Berry
[00:07:22] Hall. I've tried him for about 10 matches got a whole lot of him pretty cool and one of my
[00:07:28] favorite subs this time around is Dreyer the right winger. The Danish one. The Danish one
[00:07:35] pretty cool and very fast with the bench as well. I've seen more Kuchos and Andes than I
[00:07:41] can count for so I think I probably did about seven in an exchange. Alisson is in goal.
[00:07:48] Well he's still the excellent keeper and don't see much different with the team of the year.
[00:07:53] One player that excited me when I packed him was Olly Watkins but after my seventh time
[00:07:59] I pulled Olly Watkins I was a little bit disappointed by Olly Watkins and now
[00:08:04] every time I sub him in it's sort of a painful marriage there. He's a good striker John. I use
[00:08:09] him up front I've done him in the upgrade so he's 94 rated for me. I really like him.
[00:08:14] I don't think he's actually bad but I think well Son is just way better. I think Son is
[00:08:18] definitely one of those cards which stood out. One of the cards I tried is Salem
[00:08:25] from United. Excellent honestly really good. If I didn't have Kunate she would probably play
[00:08:34] but I want to see him is enough so Kunate plays for me. And I packed Malar the left winger
[00:08:42] from United I think although she might play some different position now anyways we all know.
[00:08:49] I think she's pretty cool but my team is so stacked I haven't tried her yet.
[00:08:53] So she's on my list but I could pack a couple and Santos which we discussed in the first
[00:08:57] week of the season arrived. She got an upgrade as well but that card is pretty fun.
[00:09:04] And on recommendation of Invi I did the Havertz SPC. Havertz was pretty good so can't complain
[00:09:12] there either. No that sounds a really good team I mean I have to say I think Hanschko
[00:09:17] he made way for an SPC into the Havertz one. Any league that has Sam Lammers as the
[00:09:25] player of the month is definitely a farmers league. Maybe you should just try him in a
[00:09:29] proper position instead of. He's the worst player I've ever seen in my life. He's as
[00:09:33] worse as Carlos Peña and Carlos Peña loved a bag of Kansas so I can say that one.
[00:09:40] Well that's not going into too much details there but hey Bundesliga I see. I think guys
[00:09:44] seeing that we've got the Greek defend coming up seeing that IAF actually played way too much
[00:09:50] this week. IAF crying away tomorrow. I think I might say this weekend league out at least.
[00:09:57] Yeah I would. Fair enough. I need a little bit of a break in between.
[00:10:03] Shall we dive into the Bundesliga teams themselves Invi and the content that brought
[00:10:07] along with it? Yes we can do that. There's a little bit of this and that here trying to
[00:10:16] find out about the player objectives and
[00:10:22] SPCs here. We got maybe the best objectives player so far. Fun intended. No fun. Nobody
[00:10:33] got it I guess. I've checked the chat so I just have to wait until you finish that punchline there.
[00:10:37] So well not the best of players to be honest. Easy to unlock of course. He's 90 rated.
[00:10:51] There's no truth in the fact that they've used Nath's face for that dynamic image of
[00:10:55] the... If anybody's seen Nathan the touch line as we as John and I seen when he's
[00:11:01] coaching his team that's Nath's face on the touch line so if you ever want to wonder what
[00:11:05] Nathan looks like just look at the best card that's Nath shouting at his players.
[00:11:10] Yeah I'm pretty sure people are going to use him as either in the Bundesliga cup or a father
[00:11:19] I guess if they unlock him. There's nothing really super exciting about that.
[00:11:25] Bet Cor actually. So here I am again. This is a four star five star weak foot player,
[00:11:32] high medium with excellent finishing and pretty fast and you can get him for free
[00:11:36] with financial pink paws and tiki-taka. Pretty cool player
[00:11:41] and he does look like Nate so that's a plus. That's probably the most exciting thing about
[00:11:46] it I was gonna say but for me it's not the best solution to be honest.
[00:11:53] If you by the way are in the Patreon or in the Discord you can join in
[00:11:58] while we're recording and well Archom says in chat if you are talking to me if you play like
[00:12:04] yesterday's co-op session you should actually take a break for this weekend.
[00:12:09] Oh that's a bit severe. I think Archom is preparing for the beating he will get next
[00:12:15] week when we are in Crete having the live tournament. Yeah if anybody's wondering if
[00:12:21] we're going to Crete next week just look at John's haircut. That is a holiday haircut
[00:12:25] that one. If you're listening you need to go on YouTube to see John's holiday haircut.
[00:12:31] Yeah so go to youtube.com slash foot coaching and just to show you I'll
[00:12:35] make sure I put my headset off for a minute. Smiling.
[00:12:43] So best is not so best so let's continue from best. Not the best no. We got an SPC of
[00:12:49] course and that's one of the kind of well-known ultimate team players. Lira Sane has had
[00:12:59] several good cards the last few years and have a good season now as well so right mid
[00:13:06] or left mid or right winger. Fais das Girmes, Forster Wigfurt, high medium work rates with
[00:13:13] Power Shot Plus, Rapid Plus and Trickster Plus. Also got the normal incisive pass,
[00:13:21] ping pass, whip pass, technical flair and quick step. So with solid stats all over pretty much
[00:13:28] very good no super weakness anywhere I guess. Unique body type 450k though it's a bit
[00:13:38] well I don't know it's not a bad price but it's not a position I need anyone at the moment though.
[00:13:47] Yeah he's six foot so he's tall he's good for going to the back page.
[00:13:51] That's Forster as well. Yeah so I mean it's a decent card I mean I think
[00:13:56] you know not meaning to do down on any of these SPCs you know I really enjoyed the
[00:14:00] Habits card and I really enjoyed the hemp card so if you're looking for a right winger
[00:14:04] you know Sane is your man you're maybe hoping that you pack someone else to get that chem up
[00:14:10] I don't know if John feels that this card needs full chem or not. I'm playing Conte on one chem
[00:14:16] I don't care at all so yeah probably good enough to play this one low chem as well
[00:14:21] also should be too hard to get him at least on two right.
[00:14:23] Yeah that's true and we got another SPC player from the Frauenbundesliga.
[00:14:36] Thank you and Google the Google pixel one this is Aniomi she plays for
[00:14:44] Frankfurt Forster's game at Forster Wigfoot high attacking low defensive work rates
[00:14:51] she gots powershot plus quickstep plus and acrobatic plus and of course normal finesse
[00:14:58] powerheader jockey technical flair trickster and aerial I don't know why she needs jockey but
[00:15:04] okay nice job but that looks like a fun card very cheap to do 28k. I used the inform earlier
[00:15:18] and that was a really fun card to use so this one could be a very nice super sub I guess if
[00:15:25] you have lots of duplicates and don't know where to throw them I would just do this SPC I think
[00:15:30] good value. That's signed towards you Chris. Super cheap 28,000 for an integrated card
[00:15:37] who knows what's going to come up in terms of cups or objectives or anything like that
[00:15:41] with these cards so no it's um it's a fairly cheap the only thing again is I know people
[00:15:47] think I'm heightest and being quite a small man myself she's five foot seven you know so again
[00:15:54] you know I just worry about these cards you know I know it's not an issue we can take
[00:15:58] because he's exceptionally strong and this card is strong itself you know it's
[00:16:02] 94 rated strength and got 99 jumping but 99 jumping on a five foot seven striker is
[00:16:07] no much use really is it. Well why are you going for a striker eh? Well but then again if
[00:16:13] you've got this I know Angbeith talked about him last week and I'm glad he did you know you've got
[00:16:17] six foot nine Triore who got upgraded and then can go on the showdown upgrade as well
[00:16:23] I mean he is an absolute colossal player that one yeah but if he struggles it's like a dinosaur
[00:16:29] turning around like insanely slow. Well he's faster than Kunate on the turn so it's not
[00:16:35] too bad. Yeah but that's more about Kunate than this speed of this player. Yeah but you
[00:16:40] just body people with that player you know yeah if you should get close to him it's just
[00:16:44] he's got he's so big he's got his own gravitational pull honestly it just pulls people out.
[00:16:53] Standing next to Pop is fun though if that will. Yeah so I don't even know my
[00:17:01] opinion about crossing this game but a pretty cool card quite honestly nice prize why not.
[00:17:09] Yeah yeah and yeah the teams probably just jumped straight into it. I'm guessing people
[00:17:19] have seen the Bundesliga Cup and everything so a few players to unlock some fodder there and
[00:17:25] some packs by playing I think you need to win six matches so it's not too bad and it's
[00:17:33] no cap on the Bundesliga Cup so also good and yeah the teams are out and
[00:17:43] of course some standouts some extinct and some very cheap and we know
[00:17:50] Koble's gonna be in a lot of packs I guess coming from what I've seen so far.
[00:17:56] It's Tal Goalie though I started the game with him in goal. Yes six with six. Yeah it's like
[00:18:05] there's definitely a presence in goal if you have him so I think again one of those goalies
[00:18:11] where you don't like pretty much I think I've tried Musliarra this week as well just for
[00:18:18] Kegels yeah also I couldn't win a match yesterday so I thought while playing with
[00:18:23] Arshun might as well try him as well. Also just good goalkeepers I think all these goalkeepers
[00:18:30] you can just slot them in if it fits your team and try it but this one has a way different
[00:18:37] build than most of the other goalkeepers which I do think is pretty fun to try so don't
[00:18:42] discard them straight away or put them into an exchange I'd say but give them a shot if he
[00:18:46] if he fits your team. Yeah you never know some goalkeepers just click in the team and work so
[00:18:53] there's like yeah you can get lucky it might just turn up for you maybe not for your opponent
[00:19:00] but for you then just use it. Yeah exactly interesting cards there's a lot of cards
[00:19:06] presence I think we won't go through all of them but if I ask you Engvi which is the
[00:19:14] worst player you've seen here? The worst player. Yeah I thought I'd do it a little bit different
[00:19:20] this week like that's absolutely and you're gonna say Koval probably. No I think maybe that
[00:19:30] Anton card he kind of threw the short straw but he has good play styles
[00:19:40] yeah so I think that Anton card is interesting he's currently well recording
[00:19:43] this on a Friday evening about one hour after release about 75k something like that yes yes
[00:19:50] yes it's three star three star from fine defender doesn't matter too much medium medium
[00:19:55] which preference not I don't think it hurts control lengthy I mean you can even you can
[00:20:03] make him mostly lengthy as well he's fast he's got almost maxed out defending stats
[00:20:10] I don't see anything wrong with this card plus he has long like the anticipate plus and jockey
[00:20:16] plus on him. And long ball for those who likes to switch sides of course that's yeah and he's
[00:20:22] 6-2. It's hit and miss with the medium medium on the defenders some of them work fine and
[00:20:29] others for some reason with similar stats nope so it's kind of that's the stats are fine but
[00:20:37] for some reason I have a feeling that he will not play to the stats and then people said that
[00:20:43] about Hansjko last week mate yeah I did but he didn't turn up for me so good so it was okay
[00:20:53] the first matches and then not so good so also we're trying to send him to Liverpool so
[00:20:59] just hype him up a little bit I'm kidding I'm kidding now I can get behind on but I like
[00:21:06] this team I don't see there's much wrong with any of these choices no there's it's a good team
[00:21:15] Harry Kane I thought he was going to be much cheaper than he is he sounds much better than
[00:21:20] I thought he would be I don't know if he jumped up to 15 million now so I don't know
[00:21:27] something must have happened there he was six points something and now it says according
[00:21:33] to fit been his 15 minutes I think that must be wrong I think that's just a little
[00:21:37] it does not pack much yet yeah well there's not much tradable packs either so
[00:21:42] yeah that's probably why but it's the first one that has 99 shooting on everything in shooting
[00:21:48] stats yeah I think so I've never seen this ever 99 composer as well so five star weak foot
[00:21:58] I think he's going with finesse plus technical plus incisive pass plus so he can probably drop
[00:22:07] down into camp position as well and still do very well doesn't have relentless so I don't
[00:22:16] think I would use him as a center mid 92 sent 92 stamina so that 92 yeah but for some reason
[00:22:24] even though they have I've had midfielders with my overnight stamina and no relentless and they're
[00:22:29] like pumped after 70 minutes so that is that is actually true but if you give this card an engine
[00:22:36] hey yeah because you don't need to give any attacking boost if to someone that has 99 in
[00:22:42] every single thing including volleys but when like with an engine he's also got 94
[00:22:48] agility 99 bands 99 reaction 95 ball control 99 dribbling 99 composure and max out shooting stats
[00:22:57] this feels like one of those cards from like actually I wouldn't mind packing him
[00:23:06] yes I think it's what I think is a car we're not going to see much of which is really good
[00:23:09] I think for most of us you don't you know it sees just going to be a click and shoot button
[00:23:15] and then that's a goal but it was 99 99 if he gets anywhere with a clear sighted goal
[00:23:20] it's likely going to end up in the back of the net and to be fair it's deserved he's a great
[00:23:25] player even though he's Scottish yeah and he's actually been really good he's a good player
[00:23:31] and I'd be interested to see how they do in the euros so no it's a great card I'll be
[00:23:37] honest with you that the Bundesliga team is probably one that we don't get hyped about
[00:23:41] let's be honest it's maybe the one that lacks that world star you know we've had that with
[00:23:46] Harland and Virgil van Dijk the Prem Ligue 1 we're going to have you know Elise D'Embappé in
[00:23:51] there and La Liga you're going to have Benesius jr Bellingham those type of players so this
[00:23:56] one potentially the Bundesliga essentially the way that Bayern Leverkusen have absolutely
[00:24:00] dominated the league this year you know you look at the frimpong card right winger ex celtic
[00:24:07] player unfortunately I've got to mention his name though it looks like a really good card as well
[00:24:10] right yeah right back as well right right right back yeah but right midfield sorry says RWB but
[00:24:17] that looks a great card could play anywhere again if we take what John says don't worry about
[00:24:24] Kem on that card I just think it's you know the only thing is he's got a four star weak
[00:24:31] foot which is a wee bit disappointing but if you look at his playstyle pluses as well
[00:24:37] they're all good ones whip pass rapid jockey you know ping pass all that stuff but everything
[00:24:42] just looks great on that card and I think it's relentless as well so with 99 stamina so I think
[00:24:47] even though it's not relentless plus I think he will last 120 minutes sprinting pretty much
[00:24:52] the whole time I'm wondering though is the fact that we're not hyped for Bundesliga actually
[00:25:00] is that just because we were so much most of people were so much into the crime this week
[00:25:07] that can't look really look forward to this but if I put both teams next week sure
[00:25:12] if I'm quite honest I think this is a better team yeah it's better but it's the same thing
[00:25:17] last year Premier League came first and it was one of the worst team of the season
[00:25:21] squads of the whole promo so I think that might happen again I think I think player
[00:25:27] for the top players I think you have to go Prem I think Virgil van Dijk Haarland is
[00:25:31] better than any of the players in this yeah that that's true but other than that I
[00:25:35] think most of the Bundesliga guys is very good I think Moushala is better than
[00:25:40] the Premier League we have midfielders we had even Savi Simons who is like 600k currently
[00:25:47] looks absolutely terrific words or wards I should say a 96 rated cam he's better than Rodri
[00:25:56] five star five star five star insane card the Harry Kane I don't think Kane is out is
[00:26:02] it is my own popular opinion today I think Kane might actually be better in game than Haarland
[00:26:10] he might be John but I don't think he has the hype that's what I'm saying I think you look at
[00:26:13] the hype in game you know the Haarland card the team of the year one that came out with
[00:26:18] the aerial plus it wasn't allowed to be used in pro games pro games wasn't it I think the
[00:26:22] height behind Haarland is far greater than it is about Kane it could be the way that he looks
[00:26:28] let's be honest that those long flowing Norwegian blonde locks much like Invi there
[00:26:34] makes him look pretty stunning you know Virgil van Dijk again he just might not a particularly
[00:26:39] great season sorry to say that Invi but I think you'll agree that he's not a really great
[00:26:43] season you know Liverpool team but again in this game those players are very hyped yeah
[00:26:48] I agree what you say John I think I think you'll find out well what I think you might find is
[00:26:52] when the Bundes when the next league comes out I think was it is it Ligue 1 or is it
[00:26:56] La Liga I think maybe you might find that these cards will drop in price this is maybe the time
[00:27:02] to buy then the hype for Kane might build and you might find he goes maximum price but
[00:27:07] I think Bundesliga and Serie A are the two of the weakest teams sorry the less hyped
[00:27:12] teams weakest it's not being right two of the less hyped teams in this whole way kind
[00:27:16] of promo yeah and then I look at a dark card what an insane card that is if you look at
[00:27:23] the stats with even bruiser plus an aerial plus and ping balls on him so he can actually play
[00:27:28] around he's got low high Invi and he's six foot five and he's already dropping to 150k
[00:27:36] his tall and stocky so he's got a wide frame as well but I also think that
[00:27:42] Schlotterbeck is a very good card he's six foot three he's high high though but
[00:27:50] oh no you did it Invi I might get hype for team of the season Bundesliga now
[00:27:55] so there that's a really good card as well I think the Schlotterbeck one and you can upgrade
[00:28:02] him as well Invi is that right I see the bottom of the foot bin you can actually upgrade
[00:28:05] that card to the the tops upgrade he can go to 94 rated yeah Schlotterbeck yeah yeah Schlotterbeck
[00:28:14] I don't know if it's a new evolution now I've actually looked at the console today but he can
[00:28:17] be 94 rated which again you know looks a really great card showing his guns here and the dynamic
[00:28:24] image as well yep flexing a little bit which is of course always cool to see
[00:28:32] the Granit Schalke card he's had an incredible season for Leverkusen I think EA did him a
[00:28:38] little bit I think everyone had a great season at Leverkusen yeah but he had some insane
[00:28:45] if you compare him to how he's been at Arsenal he's he's he's upped his game like five six
[00:28:51] levels and I still he should have had a better card he also had the the 90 rated card a few
[00:29:02] months ago and now it's a plus two I know his agility is boosted a lot but I still think he
[00:29:10] should have gotten a better card it's a good card but I still think he deserved more
[00:29:18] yeah talking about that I 100 agree I mean Leverkusen has to like the best season in their
[00:29:25] history but don't just leave your history approval exactly and if you look at this
[00:29:29] theme it's still half Bayern Munich that's just the so-called I'm not saying Kane didn't
[00:29:35] deserve it they can't definitely deserve a place here yeah Moussial is of course a terrific player
[00:29:43] but this was voted the rest are momentous now this is the only team that has votes
[00:29:50] decided to well we still don't know if it actually counted yeah that's something else
[00:29:55] but uh well this is the only team that kind of could have been affected by voting of the
[00:30:00] players yeah so um yeah yeah that's yeah sorry sorry but I was going to ask one player who
[00:30:11] again we're talking about Leverkusen is Bonnieface so I'm looking at him he's 93 rated
[00:30:18] really good card but I just wonder if the playstyle plus of powershot is maybe for
[00:30:25] someone like myself who doesn't use powershot is it a playstyle John that we maybe disregard
[00:30:31] too easy because it takes so long to maybe master or power shot is I think terrific this
[00:30:39] year I've said this time and time and time again I think it's been consistent all year
[00:30:44] and while everything else got a little bit nerfed as financials for example in Trivalla
[00:30:49] this just kept going it's just kept in I think having powershot plus on the strikers
[00:30:55] I wouldn't say a must of course because I think that's up to you yourself
[00:30:59] but I it's a must for the players I use mostly if I play a player on stop it's powershot plus
[00:31:05] because I think powershot just you can even with a little bit time the better these players
[00:31:10] get the shorter they time they actually need to get a power shot off but also the better the
[00:31:16] power shot actually works because they have better stats generally speaking so some of
[00:31:20] these powershots are just near unstoppable when you can pull them off and the way the
[00:31:25] game is played in a weaker league is people rush rush rush rush rush right there's always
[00:31:30] an opportunity for you to just pass sideways and get the potion so I would invest the time
[00:31:36] if you find time like even if squad battles right you play fights you play squad bills you
[00:31:41] go five oh up because you want to just try to force yourself to take the power shots with your
[00:31:46] powershot plus player just to get into the room because it's not that hard actually to pull off
[00:31:50] either but I green timed powershot when you have the powershot plus traits with these cards
[00:31:57] as the cars as we asked last week it's insanely good you know also what sorry sorry
[00:32:05] I was just asking this Envy uses powershot plus as well yeah I've never used it I've got
[00:32:11] players who've got it and I've just never thought about actually using it in games I
[00:32:14] feel sometimes I just launch it to the corner flag sometimes all right so here's my golden tip
[00:32:21] you do the powershot if everyone listening is like what's a powershot you hold the l1 and the
[00:32:26] r1 button or the lb and the rb button and you take a shot so you hold those two little buttons
[00:32:32] on top while you take the shot and try practicing it first without touching your left stick
[00:32:39] when you hit the ball so it goes straight forward in many cases that's often already
[00:32:45] enough to get a good powerful strong boy after that you get a little bit more you can
[00:32:51] practice targeting a little bit more I would just do it without touching the left button left
[00:32:58] stick whole bow triggers shoot and it's better to do a straight shot with green timed green
[00:33:04] time you do it of course when you touch the second time shooting when the ball almost hits
[00:33:08] the foot then trying to aim it and hit it to the corners and I think hitting to the corners
[00:33:13] is usually because people are used to taking financials for example which can
[00:33:20] which are a little bit more assisted or are assisted while power shots aren't
[00:33:24] I think that's the major difference it's a skill a skill you can master and I think a
[00:33:29] skill that stays in the game for a couple more years so it won't hurt you to master it over
[00:33:34] something. Oh definitely thanks John and just to say people who are listening and wondering
[00:33:39] if you want this knowledge on tap join our discord it's free to join we've had some
[00:33:45] wonderful discussions this week we won't mention high pressure because John and I will be on
[00:33:50] the show for the next two hours discussing it with a really good discussion on that one
[00:33:55] but if you want this sort of knowledge come join the discord it is free look us up
[00:33:59] perfect I don't need to enter put an ad break there that was an ad break already thanks Chris
[00:34:06] thank you, want to continue with the Fawin team?
[00:34:11] Yes I do I also need to mention we got the Luthor Mateus team of the year SPC at 1.65
[00:34:19] millions so I think that's a very good card but I think I'm not gonna do it I think it's
[00:34:26] a little bit too late for me I have so many center mids very good card but
[00:34:32] yeah I think I'll save the fodder for something more cooler I think. Me too I think
[00:34:40] they need a new version of team or team of the season icons to make the team of the year
[00:34:48] icons I don't know many except for another card team the year icon that actually
[00:34:53] aren't surpassed currently maybe Miam as well Miam is of course a good definitely still good
[00:35:04] but then again if you look at Popa I think he's easily better so I have to say I think
[00:35:09] the Socrates card still holds his own I think it is just down to those long legs
[00:35:13] that is just basically what that is he covers a lot of ground he's not particularly quick
[00:35:19] it's not a team of the season no sorry no but I'm just thinking about the year
[00:35:24] I think there's definitely icons there that hold their value are still good to the both
[00:35:30] on the regular Pele the other Pele I think any or another card Socrates still works I think
[00:35:36] they're on a new card if you like those cards still definitely have the value can still work
[00:35:41] but most of the team of the year icons that came out so the one with the blue ballers
[00:35:45] for example Zola, Mateos still find cards but any striker that comes out now is at least on the
[00:35:52] same level as Zola in my honest opinion and I adore that I adored that card but I think that's
[00:35:57] the same with Mateos pick any midfielder from the Premier League or that came out today
[00:36:02] probably equally good for a fraction of the money so no I agree I think I'm surprised
[00:36:09] maybe it's an actual ploy you know a deliberate ploy by EA not to weaken the team of the season
[00:36:15] promo by bringing out hero cards or icons I thought they may have to boost pack sales
[00:36:22] done something like that maybe they're waiting to the next promo that comes out
[00:36:26] to boost heroes because we've seen a lot of heroes this year haven't we more so than last
[00:36:30] year probably and even icons we've seen a lot more versions of icons out you know almost
[00:36:34] every promo has a certain icon attached to it and the fact that Tots hasn't got one is quite
[00:36:40] surprising yeah I don't mind it too much if I'm quite honest because we don't want more players
[00:36:47] in packs already because we also have the moments now as well in packs we have another
[00:36:55] three teams quite honestly right Envy? Yeah there's still the mixed one is still in packs
[00:37:02] so I think that will change but it's also in packs yeah still for a day or two I think maybe
[00:37:07] changes on Sunday or something yeah then we get maybe a mixed team too or something
[00:37:12] that's what I'm there are some rumors about a few players coming in that team so it could be
[00:37:19] interesting plenty impacts at least plenty of them yep but the Frau in Bundesliga there are
[00:37:26] some good cards there quite a few actually and the hidden gem maybe as well oh okay let's start
[00:37:34] with the same question now worst player in this team and it can't be the goalkeeper Fromes because
[00:37:43] although stats are great I don't think five foot nine is great on a goalkeeper anyways
[00:37:47] not much you can do about that that's difficult one again really well I think maybe Viggo Stotir
[00:38:02] for me because there are so many big strong strikers now and so many other good defenders
[00:38:07] in their backs so she's probably more than usable good play styles but I still think
[00:38:15] that she will struggle and the other players in that team are quite good as well to be honest so
[00:38:27] that was my hidden gem if you look at the stats well I first looked at it didn't look that
[00:38:37] special but then when you look at the stats first of all it's nice high high work rates
[00:38:44] ping pass plus long ball plus technical plus she also has finesse shot power shot incisive
[00:38:51] pass whip pass intercept slight tackle tribella with 96 defensive awareness 96 interceptions
[00:39:01] 91 agility 90 balance 91 reaction 93 ball control 98 one dribbling 97 short passing 91 long passing
[00:39:09] passing
[00:39:13] decent not the best maybe shooting stats but if you boost that with a chem style I think she's
[00:39:20] she could be a very fun card to use in game where do you a little bit like Kessler
[00:39:27] yeah where do you play her though because she's sentiment
[00:39:29] it she's like this germ sorry austrian
[00:39:39] austrian salva type of player for like 23 000 coins you know what this card reminds me
[00:39:46] this card reminds me very much of xavi the team leader icon yeah where if you get in
[00:39:51] the ball in this case probably when you get her the ball as well she's very agile smooth on
[00:39:56] the ball comes in front of goal and misses hitters because shooting is just non-existent
[00:40:02] this situation maybe not non-existent but at least far too low this time of the year
[00:40:07] can't really defend that well although defensive stats are great she just hasn't got the body to
[00:40:14] get the truck pass of this world out of the ball and she's not fast enough to play outside
[00:40:22] like for example a white cam or white wing although you can actually play our left midfield
[00:40:27] to help out that way as well because it's just falls dead in the center for me this card like
[00:40:34] i'm totally get away saying and I think 20k is a steal but also ah she could also be the austrian
[00:40:45] county as well just throw an anchor on her with 99 interceptions and 90
[00:40:49] except she doesn't have the strength so 83 strength is fine i think with the 86 aggression
[00:41:01] so yeah you might be right actually I still think she would be a hidden gem
[00:41:07] yeah I think that's what's fun of the season as well right did you have cards like this
[00:41:11] like well actually um yeah maybe we should just give barbara a chance but who do you link
[00:41:19] away to not a plus card either right no that's probably the if you're going to talk about
[00:41:27] negative that's uh but if you have a few icons and you pack a pop and then throw our manager
[00:41:36] on you should be fine to get her just have to pack pop that's all yeah just easiest
[00:41:43] yeah good luck good luck try to find the weasel she is extinct at the moment isn't
[00:41:48] shang vien oh my good friend there's been trying to sniper for a few an hour at least and
[00:41:54] that's a that's a really good card that one I can't even I can't even
[00:41:59] snipe a shadow these days so I'm not even gonna attempt this one uh want to talk about
[00:42:05] popping if you do looks like a crazy card to be honest insane stats five stars gamer
[00:42:13] first a weak foot uh 99 positioning 96 finishing uh 99 shot power 95 long shots 98 volleys 96 penalties
[00:42:28] 99 jumping 99 hiding accuracy 94 stamina 99 strength 93 aggression uh 90 agility 93
[00:42:37] balance 98 reactions 94 ball control 91 there be 92 composure she's five foot nine left footed
[00:42:44] uh finesse shot plus power shot plus aerial plus she also has power header bruiser tactical
[00:42:51] press proven quick step three vella and acrobatics so uh oh yeah she's five five as well so
[00:42:59] yeah so uh yeah that's uh some crazy and i just see the best female player in the game
[00:43:07] I think so yeah because the 95 rated team of the car was crazy good so I think she's better
[00:43:15] than sentiment filler as well well if you don't try any long passes you should be fine yes
[00:43:23] that's the only thing i think is potentially a problem with this card while you play her as a
[00:43:27] striker period yeah you go i don't do any long passes with my striker so that's uh fine for
[00:43:33] me at least uh but um she also has uh the other the um the other strike one of the other
[00:43:41] strikers eva bajour i don't know how to pronounce it but that also looks like a very good card
[00:43:51] i don't know also extinct yes five star four stars so a little bit less uh but
[00:43:58] uh
[00:44:02] yeah agree power shot press proven quick step yeah i mean 96 composure this whole
[00:44:08] team looks terrific if i'm quite honest i love i like the looks of stanway as well
[00:44:13] center defense is also very good yeah also extinct currently there's a lot of looks good
[00:44:19] yeah i think um yeah i hope i'm getting more hyped the more we talk about this team i'm
[00:44:28] getting more hype to actually play wicker league um to hopefully get one of these though if i'm
[00:44:33] honest i think you shouldn't sleep on the obedorf you know that's a good card as well
[00:44:37] you know 98 strength 99 aggression then you look at what makes a canty great uh 92 balance
[00:44:45] 97 reactions composure is really good you know strong defending as well the playstyle pluses
[00:44:52] with them in size of pass anticipate your intercept she's got everything there you need
[00:45:00] and uh you know okay five foot nine but actually taller than canty so that's a good card again
[00:45:07] i think she's a proper team as well i think she's the same team as pop so if you wanted
[00:45:12] to pair those two up for if you can get pop you know you'll get them for you know she's currently
[00:45:16] showing a million coins at the moment for that card maybe a wee bit pricey compared to what i've
[00:45:20] got at the moment but i think you know for the lack of hype then i've said this numerous
[00:45:24] times on both bundas league of teams i think this has been a really good week in terms of
[00:45:28] the players we've got i think we all agree there it's been uh excellent so far and there's
[00:45:36] the moments players as well go redsga sancho they also have tabsoba adhemi rois
[00:45:47] there's quite a lot of uh moments players as well that's
[00:45:52] worth looking into probably because they're not too badly
[00:45:56] priced uh guretzka is of course extinct uh but uh he looks uh well pretty much crazy i would
[00:46:04] say to be honest yeah especially with rois announcing this week that he's going to be
[00:46:09] leaving um dorment as well isn't he i think he's been there for 12 years so he announced this
[00:46:15] week so it's good that he's got a card i wonder if it would have been an era end of era card
[00:46:18] but i've missed his moments when they're sorry but i'm glad you mentioned that
[00:46:21] so no it's a great one only thing to say about guretzka is i think he had a team this
[00:46:26] season was it two seasons ago looked an amazing card was absolutely atrocious i don't know this
[00:46:32] also think about that one as well yeah but then again if i pack him i'll make sure i'll help him
[00:46:37] up a bit but he was really good last year the cards yeah last year was really good the
[00:46:42] guretzka and this is uh looking more crazy than those cards definitely i'm afraid we have
[00:46:49] reached the end of the day show which is weird on a friday night but we keep going
[00:46:54] we keep going we keep going we keep grinding this game as well um i want to have one last
[00:47:00] i think it's important to say that we have got a couple of questions people that
[00:47:05] find it hard to find rhythm in the game currently and that is because the player base is all over
[00:47:12] fields basically you play pro plays you play plays a return you play plays that were dropped
[00:47:16] down in rivals they won't get up because of the rewards you play players that play
[00:47:21] because of the rewards very hard to play and you have players that suddenly start playing
[00:47:26] we could league after they haven't played all year for example as me so i would recommend
[00:47:34] everyone that goes to myself as well just try to enjoy these new players try to have fun and yes
[00:47:40] results do matter but try to aim for something a little bit more chill for example if i play
[00:47:46] we can leave myself this week i'm just going to go for 11 wins if i do it 14 16 17 awesome
[00:47:53] as long as i make 11 and i will have a great time i think that's something i wanted to say before
[00:48:00] uh a little bit of housekeeping though next week and the end of the week will well half the team
[00:48:05] will be traveling to creed which means we are looking at having a little bit of difficulty
[00:48:10] trying to record a show on friday night we might do it on saturday night i'm not sure
[00:48:16] chris maybe we do it there in a in a on a bar on the beach or something um but keep an
[00:48:21] eye on our socials and we'll make sure to let everyone know how we are looking next week do
[00:48:25] expect a midweek show of course released on tuesday 7 p.m or 6 p.m uk of course
[00:48:31] but we're a little bit unsure about the friday show and we have a different schedule while the
[00:48:36] team is having their event on creed but if you want to follow it then join the discord
[00:48:43] fun and review discord you find the link in descriptions it is totally free all the tournaments
[00:48:49] all the vlogs all the videos will be all pushing it towards there so we want the people in the
[00:48:56] discord to feel like they are actually with us there and of course if you are there hey it's
[00:49:02] going to be excellent we've prepared it a lot i think chris yeah and it's going to be amazing
[00:49:09] i'm not wishing if he was there but hey you're in this court so it feels like you're there
[00:49:14] trust me guys thank you so much i hope everyone enjoys the bundesliga and the fraun team
[00:49:22] team of the season this conversation got me hyped a little bit if i'm quite honest so i
[00:49:27] might just give wicca league a quick go try to go for an 11 wins hopefully pack myself a pop
[00:49:33] or any other female player quite honestly because they all look good
[00:49:37] and leaves us just with one small thing but not a very unimportant thing to do
[00:49:44] and that is for us to drop it drop it
