TOTS Investment: 81-83 La Liga/BPL Defenders

Players: 81-83 Rated La Liga and BPL Defenders
Reasoning: As we’ve been discussing about for the last couple weeks, TOTS is fast approaching. I believe it will start next Friday, May 10th, beginning with Community TOTS, followed by BPL TOTS on May 17th, and La Liga TOTS on May 24th
Along with these new squad releases, we will also get SBCs to accompany them. Last year, we saw these SBCs over the first couple weeks of TOTS (see the full calendar for more details).
As you can see, there were both high rating requirements and league requirements for these SBCs (2 players from BPL/La Liga).
As a result, many gold cards from both those leagues rose substantially, particularly the 81-83 rated gold defenders from La Liga of FIFA 18 and 81-83 rated gold defenders from BPL of FIFA 18.
While I’m not going to list every example, here are a few so you can get an idea of the impact these SBCs had (click the above links to do more of your own research).

There are a good amount of these 81-83 rated BPL/La Liga gold defenders, so try to diversify. Stock your club, and do your best to get players from good nations as well (England, Brazil, Argentina, France, Germany, etc.).
Target BUY: This is based on the individual player. Don’t overpay. Try and buy them for less than their average over the past couple weeks.
Target SELL: When you are happy with the profit. Very hard to say with these.
Cheers,
Chief







chief what do you think about ucl players? bc final of ucl is approaching
Not that interested. Too dependent on a specific SBC requirement.
ea is always unpredictable. this not a reason according to the last year sbc. do you agree?
I agree that EA try to be unpredictable, but I’m not sure what you mean when you say “this not a reason according to the last year SBC”.
i am talking about this page’s suggustion.
Some players are more likely to be required than others. This is why I consistently recommend informs and high rated cards as opposed to UCLs; they are required more often.
CHIEF I LISTENED TO YOUR ADVICE AND BOUGHT BUNDESLIGA 81-83 PLAYERS.RARE GOLD. AND SPENT ALL MY COINS. WAITING FOR BUNDES LIGA TOTS
Well, I didn’t really recommend Bundesliga, but good luck regardless!
So what do you recommend if not bundesliga ?
The players in this post.
I had buyed 40x filipe luis 85 for 13k is that a good option?
He will rise if an SBC requires him; unfortunately, I have no idea when that will be.
Yes i have sell it for 17750👌🏼
Except from5 percent tax or not?
Not
Hey chief, thanks for the tip. Any insight as to when the best time to buy BPL defenders will be?
While packs are being opened is generally a good time (rewards/lightning rounds/etc.), but considering how many of them there are, there will be windows in which some of them are cheapest. Just keep an eye on their prices over the next week and buy during those windows.
Chief!
Do you think John Stones would be a great invenstment if buying at 1300 and selling when profit is good?
Yes, 1300 would be good.
How much you think he will sell for?
I don’t know – it all depends on SBCs.
hi chief, do you think there will be an sbc for the eleague xup tomorrow? if there is one, what players would be a likely requirement?
I don’t think there will be an SBC if it hasn’t been released by now, no.
Do you consider nonrare players(like Koscielny) as good investments?
Yes, non-rare players are fine.
Hi Chief, I just packed de Bruyne, sell and invest elsewhere? Or is he due to increase at all?
I would sell and invest elsewhere, yes.
Hi Chief, just wanted to ask you if you knew anything about these old MOTMs rising up to over double their prices. Was there a leak or something?
Nvm just saw the weekly obj sorry
Not sure – I’ll keep an eye on it.
Hey chief,
so I took a look at your suggestions and have a question.
for the 83 BPMs I want to invest in David Luiz and Laporte (both good nations and CBs).
atm luiz is at 4200 and laporte is at 6900. would you diversify and invest in both or is it generally better to invest in the cheaper card in such cases?
best regards and thx in advance
niru
Generally, you’ll get the best ROI with cheaper players, but I still would recommend to diversify in this scenario.
What do you of Cahill , Digne and Stones?
They are pretty good.
Hey chief, I was wondering, is there a way to get more than 200 players in transfer list + transfer targets? The maximum is 100 each I think, is there a way to keep buying players past this?

chief,
what is the better moment to rebuy the team? when tots community appear or tots pl? may 10 or 11? my team will be full icon. not gold/if.
cheers
I’m thinking when the BPL TOTS drops (likely May 17th).
Hi Chief,
what do you think about buying Stones Lenglet Gabriel Paulista as investments before tots?
They are decent looks, yes.
I bought Stones, Bartra, and Digne, 15 cards each. Do you think it is a good investment?
Yes, they are decent looks.
For use in teams, it is safe to buy anything now? For example, I want to buy De Gea 91 NIF. Should I wait?
I would wait until the BPL TOTS release (likely May 17th).
Sergio Rico’s price was almost 20k this weekend on xbox, now only 17.5k. Do you think he will rise again when he goes out of packs on Wednesday?
He will.
Yes, I think he will rise again.
Hey chief, I was looking at the price graphs of players from FIFA 18, and it seems like there was a decent drop during BPL TOTS, but every player seemed to have the most massive spike around June 1. Any idea why this is?
There was a World Cup mode released on May 29th in FIFA 18 that caused the market to crash heavily. We will not get that this year.
Is Gabriel Paulista at 1100 on PS4 still a good buy? :) How high do you think his price will go up?
He is a good buy at 1100 coins, yes – it doesn’t look like he is still at that price, though.
Bought 33 of him at 1100 :D do you think he will rise to 2k above? :O As always thanks chief! :)
With the right SBCs, yes – but no way of knowing if we will get them for sure.
Such a good tip bought 20 lenglet at 1400 just sold them all at 6800 this morning👍
Nice!
I bought few rudigers, stones and bailly yesterday how long should I wait before selling? will they rise from their current price on PC?
Sell when you are happy with the profit. They will rise when they are required for an SBC. I don’t know if/when that will be.
