Wow! This time around was no joke either. I didn't help myself by cramming in all 20 games late into Friday night. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this approach and will not entertain that in the future.

I finished Rank 7 with a record of 6-14!

The Squad

A few things have changed up with the squad since I last partook in FUT Champs as I mentioned in the qualifier post. We packed Marcus Rashford (untradeable), Capdevila (Hero SBC), completed the Blanc SBC, bought Mad Ready VVD and also added Marcos Llorente to the midfield with our formation change.

This WL I started out in the 433 (4) before shifting into the 433 (5)

ST- Erling Haaland

LW- Marcus Rashford

RW- EVO Ferran Torres

CAM- KDB

LCM- Marcos Llorente

RCM- Frenkie DeJong

LB- Hero Capdevila

CB- Icon Blanc

CB- Mad Ready VVD

RB- Kyle Walker

GK- Alisson

SUBS: Katoto, Messi, Trinity Rodman, Rolfo, Mapi Leon, Alphonso Davies, Trent

What Happened?

I. Just. Could. Not. Score.

2 weeks ago in FUT Champs when I went 9-11, I racked up 70 goals and while conceding 71.

This weekend: I could only muster 45 goals and conceded 65. So, defensively, I was a little better but I could not find the back of the net at all. This is crazy because adding Rashford to the attack I thought I was sure to have more of an offensive explosion.

The Splits

First 10 games: 3-7

Last 10 games: 3-5*. Gifted last 2 games

I had a span in the middle where I lost 8 of 9 games! It's a weird addictive cycle because when I'm winning, I want to keep the momentum and continue to play. When I'm losing, I just want to keep playing to break the streak and try to get that dub.


Contributions


Erling Haaland continued his scoring tear this WL averaging just over a goal a game. Rashford entered the scene scoring 7 times. Ferran Torres and KDB who both scored 10+ goals each the first time around, saw their numbers cut in half.



KDB really hit his stride in the Assist department this weekend, registering 15 of them! Haaland adding 7 to show he's really not just a one-dimensional scoring machine.

What really stands out to me is the fact the Frenkie DeJong didn't even register in the top 6 in either category contributing only 1 goal and 1 assist from the midfield. It's something I'll keep an eye on for sure.

There's always next week!

I pulled absolutely nothing! After netting about 325k+ in coins from the first WL, expectations were high to pull something of note to add to our coin balance.

NADA.

Back to the drawing board. Good luck this week folks!
