POTM Investment: Özil

Player: Mesut Özil
Reasoning: High rated players took a big hit today as people opened TOTY packs. However, given the right SBCs they will rebound quickly.
Not only is Mesut one of the cheapest 86 rated players, he also plays in the Premier League. This could be a requirement for the upcoming December BPL POTM SBC on Friday, January 11th.
In addition, Özil could also be required for the next Bundesliga POTM as he comes from the same nation as the favorite – Timo Werner. I anticipate the December Bundesliga POTM to come out next Friday, January 18th.
Target BUY: Less than 16k
Target SELL: When you are happy with the profit and/or see a better investment opportunity.
Cheers,
Chief

I only recently started investing, and I don’t want to go too risky yet. I have ~600k to invest, how risky is this Ozil play in your opinion? I really like your reasoning but not too familiar with SBC price changes.
Thanks!
He is quite safe.
There is no way to buy Ozil for 16k on PC, he is now 19, will he drop?
My prices are in regards to PS4 and Xbox. PC prices are generally more expensive.
dont you think it may get even cheaper when the full team/12th come out? also, any chance of digne still rise? i couldn’t make profit out of him
Like last year, I think Monday (when TOTY attackers were released) was the market low. Digne isn’t even out of packs yet – give it some time.
sorry, why isn’t digne out of packs? he is in the current TOTW, isn’t he?
Think the chief thought that you meant the inform digne
Yes, I thought you meant the inform. I would sell Digne today before he returns to packs tomorrow.
Will Sorrentino reach 16k to sell him?
Eventually, yes.
Thanks for the quick response chief. I picked up 40 copies for 15.5k as suggested.
You mention that he may be a requirement for the upcoming Bundesliga POTM SBC on January 11th. When these SBC’s drop, when do player prices (such as Ozil’s) tend to peak? A few hours into it, or a day or two after?
Thanks again.
Do you recommend picking up players like Elneny or Keita for the Salah POTM?
Thanks
If I liked them, they would be in my ‘Top Buys’.
They tend to be the most expensive the first couple hours after the SBC is released.
Chief, ive bought players like kondogbia live, kimpembe live, mbappe, lala 86 if & pogba if 89. They all at 20k up or more, should i sell them? Or wait a bit?
Let me know so i can invest in ozil, nocoins right now.
Hey chief, last week i bought a team with pogba if 89, lala if 86, kondogbia live, kimpembe live, etc. They all went 20k up or more, should i sell for wl? Or wait?
They will likely be more expensive come Thursday/Friday as people build their WL squads.
Hi chief, i am a massive fan. For potm epl, should i buy mo salah normal gold card or if?
I think Özil is a better look.
What about Raheem sterling? His price dropped today from 14k to 10k..
I think Özil is better.
How did you know that sorrentino and quagliarella IF will be usable for the SBC? I would like to understand what you have analysed and how you concluded that it could be worth investing in these two inform cards before TOTY released
He’s based it on the Salah potm having a serie a or roma section in need a number of serie a/ Roma players with X amount of in forms. Last year salahs potm required something similar
Expensive SBCs tend to require inform players and/or have high rating requirements. Check out past SBCs in the calendar page to see for yourself.
What is the % of price increase expected for Ozil?
That is dependent on SBC requirements.
Happy New Year Chief!
In addition to Ozil, would NIF Thomas Müller also be a decent look to prep for Bundes POTM?
IF Götze for 20K a decent look if we assume Timo as POTM?
Thank you for all your advice so far.
Müller is decent.
Hi chief,
I have some alissons still i got for 10K (PC)
Keep or sell?
Thanks
I would sell Friday.
ok thank you!
oh, got it, alright, thanks chief
So you recommend getting ozil and he’s a safe bet?
Yes, that’s why I made a post about him.
I have 6 IF Götze, 1 IF Boly, 1IF Havertz, 1Özil, and 2 Müller. Will end up selling pl players for that POTM and then the again for Bundesliga POTM. However, if it is Werner for POTM I’d like to complete. Any tips you can give me?
It will not be Werner as he was not included in the nominees. EA are drunk.
Do you think EA has something different for Werner… If I recall right didn’t Gnabry not get a TOTW because he was placed into SBC for the Bundesliga league challenge
Also, do you have a prediction for a possible front runner since the voting has begun?
Likely Lewandowski or Reus again.
Potentially – or they are just clueless, which is entirely possible.
Hey Chief, the target buy is 16k or less or less than 16k?
How much you think he might go up by?
I don’t know. It all depends on SBC requirements which I cannot predict.
Should we hold onto high cost premier league NIF cards like VVD, or Liverpool cards like Salah and Mane (in case req for Salah POTM), or sell now and invest in bulk cards like Ozil for PL POTM
Özil isn’t as good of a look anymore as he has increased due to the Silva SBC.
I was lucky and got him at 15k. Keep for SBC POTM or sell off?
As always, sell when you are happy with the profit. He will go up if required for the POTM SBC. He will dip if not.
Should I sell Sanches Live (~160k) for capital to invest in Ozil for Friday? On Xbox, Ozil is about 18k now.
Also, would Lewandowski a possible requirement if winner of POTM (like how Aubameyang was)
Özil has already inflated due to the Silva SBC.
