Men. Dominating an opponent and being up 2-0 while still losing 2-3 in the final minute is one thing, but doing your toxic dance to celebrate is just so annoying. I really want to punch his face in. 10-4 now, but slim hopes I have some time to finish today.

I didn't have fun at all this weekend...I usually do (surprisingly) but the past few days felt like a chore.

Stopped at Silver 1... Was planning to play all weekend with my Ligue 1 side but hated playing with the team..so switched to La Liga halfway through.

I feel like my main team is at the point where it cannot get much better so grinding for the rewards is less enticing. I took the weekend off and don't think I'll be returning for a couple of weekends.

Went 19-10 and messed up the final game for gold one. Shame, but still looking forward to the rewards Thursday. Didn’t play well because of such slow gameplay.

Went with a Bundesliga-Serie A hybrid this weekend with Lautaro and Muller up top, Donnaruma in goal with Tomori and Zagadou pairing. Muller doesn't miss when he gets a clear opportunity, same with Lautaro except Muller faded as the weekend went along while Lautaro was incredible throughout. Kessie is also a bully in the midfield. I had to complete Aouar so next weekend will probably be a Ligue 1Bundesliga for the Ultimate tots weekend.

You know what I'm just going to rename my club Right Back FC, just packed Clauss from the guaranteed Ligue 1 pack. So now I have 8 right backs that I can choose from to use. Clauss, Cuadrado, Dest, Baku, Bender, Reece James, Sambia, and Klaiber. The last 2 guaranteed tots packs that I've done was Cuadrado and Clauss back to back, this is getting annoying now.

Is there a difference this weekend in comparison to other weekends?

Ultimate TOTS is basically a best of the Top 5 Leagues. So no new players... But a rerelease of 15 players that got a TOTS Card.

My guess is it'll be something like:

Fernandes
Mount
Ruben Dias
Messi
Varane
Oblak
Goretska
Angelino
Lewandowski
Ronaldo
Insigne
Kessie
Mbappe
Yedder
Marquinhos

They usually include a couple stinkers, so I'm not sure what they'll do since there's only 15 players this year.

Rewards were really good for me actually. No Neymar or Mbappe ( :( ), but I did get Andre and Bamba and got that perfect link. I had a choice of Bamba or Paqueta and I really wanted Paqueta, but I couldn't turn down Bamba. He looks like FB Reus on steroids. Its funny if you compare this Bamba card to the LW Mbappe cards he beats him in every single category and at half the price.

Incredibly hard start to this weekend starting 5-5 on Friday. Every one of those games could've gone either way. But Saturday and sunday were very good to me. Funny enough I'm pretty sure this was the most goals I've scored this year. I bought prime Matthaus and he was incredible. Bamba and Alessandrini were fantastic, but both players would go through hot and cold stretches. Aouar is just incredible and was consistent throughout the entire weekend.

Depending on what kind of content we see I'm definitely going to take it easy from here on out. Will definitely run an MLS/USA squad at some point and will complete the remaining icon swaps. As annoying as this game can be at times, I easily enjoy this game 10x more than FIFA 20

Went 4-5 on Friday. Starting your WL early always bites you in the ass as you’ll match crazy opponents. Finished gold 3 with 10 games left. Slow gameplay was absolutely unplayable. My tots Mbappe even turned like a truck.

I'm thinking this weekend I'm going to use an all-fodder team in Weekend League. Won't expect many wins but I think it would be funny to beat some god teams with a Parajo-koke-Silva midfield.

It's fun when you don't have the expectation...and ELO kicks in and helps more than you'd think.

Probably will do an all England/Italy/Germany squad this weekend for Euros... Not sure which country yet.

In all seriousness though Netherlands could be fun.

GK - Tots Krul, Tots Pasveer, Van der Sarr (since you have him)

RB - Showdown Klaiber, Tots Dumfries
LB - Sinkgraven League Objective, Scream Van Aanholt, Totw Wijndal.
CB - Any version of VVD, Showdown Ake, Bday St Juste, TOTS Bazooer, Tots Blind, Tots De Vrij

CDM/CM/CAM - RTTF Promes, WIF Fer, Foundations Gravenberch, RTTF Wijnaldum, Tots De jong, Koopenmeiners, Klaasen,
LM/LW/LF - Tots Danjuma Groenfeld, Future Stars Bergwjin,
RM/RW/RF - Flashback Robben, Foundation Van Bergen, Tots Berguis

CF/ST - Fut Birthday Huntelaar, Showdown De Jong, Objective Tots Te Vred, any version of Depay, Tots Malen, IF Boadu, IF Weghorst

Some fun quality cards at each position.

Yeah my Dutch team isn't bad (actually all of the Top 9 are decent), but I can't add to it with zero coin available (and I like untradeables).

My Dutch fullbacks are weak though, never did Klaiber. Maybe going with a 3 back for them would work.

Here's what it'd be with a 4 back:

I could also probably swap out Dumfries for Van Aanholt off chem...would probably be better.

Red picks were arguably the worst I've had all year. Gold 1 rewards and literally only saw De Vrij in both picks. So f***ing pissed.

I did get Moments Sol Campbell from one of my ultimate packs, but I'm still livid about my red picks.
