 Hey guys, it's Nate, AKA The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. I want to kind of tackle the question today. Since we're entering the ladder stages, we're starting to head outwards of Team of the Year. I want to kind of tackle the question, where is our market rise that we were looking at? And the market rise we were talking about post-team of the year, because we have seen the market rise a lot. But of course, the past couple of days, a lot of our special cards that we were looking at, a lot of other cards in this game are starting to drop. Because of a few things that have happened in FIFA and just what people are doing in FIFA right now, now that we've had all of our saved up packs have opened, and we're kind of on the out and out. We are in the last few days of Team of the Year. A lot of people right now, if you're somebody who's not just spamming upgrade packs at the moment, then you're kind of like, all right, well, you know, we're just kind of getting this SBC content, and that's what you're doing in FIFA. Maybe you're doing some objectives. But a lot of what's going on in FIFA is just basically packs. It's just basically packs. It's basically grinding those SBCs. I finished up my initial investment of about a million coins worth into upgrade packs, packing Kimmich and Fakir as my two Team of the Year and one honorable mention. But I've seen more people hit some packs. So I'm probably gonna send another couple hundred K into upgrades in the next couple of days. But let's talk about this market, man, because these two SBCs, and I can show you in my team because I actually have them in my squad, these two guys right here, Mr. 87, Christian Ronaldo, and the Boateng SBC. Now, we talked in the last night's video about, we talked about them in last night's video a little bit, but again, I just wanna go and show you. Again, with the content we got yesterday with a mid icon, non-repeatable upgrade, right? A lot of people are gonna be doing this as well because they have a lot of fodder in their club. They have coins. So they're gonna take a shot at this SBC. Now, of course, people were saying today, why is this not a mid or prime? Cause they feel like that this SBC should have been a bit, you know, a higher quality SBC for where we're at in the stage of the game. I don't disagree, but that's just kind of where people are at right now. A lot of people are doing SBCs, and you can tell, right? By going over here on foot bin and taking a look at some of these prices of the SBC cards that have been in the game for a bit, right? Bruno Fernandez, Player of the Month, which I'm actually crafting through upgrade packs. This guy is 1.1 million coins. He was 900K. He was even, he was so low. Thursday and Friday, this guy was like 900,000 coins. He actually started to go up the past couple of days, but basically Thursday when fodder was super duper low or even Friday during the first hour or so of lighting grounds, this SBC was lower like 920, 930,000 coins, and it's up to 1.1 mil, right? This is kind of like a barometer when we have SBCs that are out in the game. You can kind of use an SBC that's been out for a while as a barometer on how the SBC fodder market is fluctuating. Now, of course, today with that mid icon, you saw 86 rates kind of shoot up in price a little bit. You saw 85s kind of shoot up a little bit as well. So if you guys are holding SBC fodder, the only stuff that I would consider to sell if you have SBC fodder right now is this really, really high rated stuff, right? Allison has 65,000 coins for a 90 rated goalkeeper. Now, he was 65K early this year, but that was also because he was just meta and usable. He went down to 49,000 coins and is now back up to 65K. The stuff that I would consider selling right now is like your 90 and 91 rated cards. Oblock is 75,000 coins after being only 66K. So he has not risen up that much, but the 90 rated cards have risen up a ton. Terstegen, Allison, those guys are up a lot. Even some of these 89s, Casamiro 55K. That's a huge rise on his card, right? He was 44,000 coins, low 40s early this week, up 10K card in just a couple of days. You could start to look out, taking the cash on some of these, but honestly, you might as well just hold because a lot of these cards are just gonna go higher as fodder rises. As people finish team of the year, they have halfway completed SBCs, they have coins from opening packs, and they're gonna be finishing whatever SBCs EA put out, and they're gonna be more incentivized to do those. And that's what's pushing the market down right now. That's why we're seeing cards on this game drop in price. We'll talk about team of the years in a second. Or even if we go back here to the popular page, if we look at a lot of these player prices, you can see a lot of the informs that are quote unquote out of packs, informs they're down, right? Some of them are not very meta, right? But you have two sides of the story here. You have the headliner Benzema 178K who just really kind of dropped off today after their game. You have gold cards that are even out of packs, Van Dyke, 180K, of course, a panic selling because of the SBC that came out. For Boatang, people are switching up their back lines. Renato Sanchez is down a little bit, but he's still super duper meta. The biggest thing you have here is cards from the last team of the week that people invested in for a rise out of packs. Ben Yetter, 400K, this guy was 440, he's down to 400. Pogba was like 540 as well, he's down to 525. The rises on these cards have been cut short and Dombley, 31K. The rises on these cards have been cut short because a lot of people invested in them. If you actually go in the market and look, a lot of the 87 Benyetters and the 88 Pogbas that you'll see are fresh, second owner, third owner. There's ones that people invested in that they were trying to see a market rise on after team of the year and they are kind of getting killed because again, people are selling their investments and selling cards to go do SBCs. The same thing happened with Griezmann and DePie, man. It's like the Dutch Lynx have literally just gone away. This guy was 190, almost 200K. Last week, a week ago, 200,000 coins for DePie. He's 50K down right now because again, the hype has moved away from some of the League One, from some of the Dutch Lynx, of course, with the Robin and the Clyber and it's moving to the Bundesliga and it's moving to Bundesliga defense and Serie A and attack. Now, one thing I will say is some of these Bundesliga cards like this Royce, he was a little bit over-invested in. I still think there's a possibility for a bounce back on some of these cards, especially if they're Bundesliga and that's what I want you guys to be watching. There's a couple of different cards that I want you guys to be watching in the sell-off of the Weekend League as we had out of this weekend specifically, right? You want to focus on Serie A, Bundesliga and just stuff that is super duper meta in general, right? You're not to Sanchez type cards, some of your really meta cards like that but this Kealini has been 360, 370K almost. He's down to 333 at the moment with a little bit of Weekend League sell-off. So definitely look at cards like Kealini, Quadrado or Serie A cards that have been really, really hyped up. Now, of course a guy like Valtarro Martinez with his freeze item, you're not super duper interested in him because of course Ronaldo has kind of replaced his card. This guy went up a lot because of Di Bala but now he's back down a lot because of Ronaldo. So we kind of keep that in mind. Still could rebound a little bit but that's one area that I would keep a look at on the market specifically is combing through these out-of-packs informs and other special cards. If that's an area that you want to look, I would definitely keep an eye on the Serie A and on the Bundesliga. Now there's one card that I want to take a look at right now, Kula Bali, 615. This guy fluctuates a ton. This dude is an incredible, incredible card to trade with. Check out his price earlier today. He was 660,000 coins, went down to 580 back to 620. If you see this guy in like the mid-500s, there is not really a good center back in this game in the Serie A other than this card in my opinion. I think this is like the best Serie A center back in FIFA. So if you can, if you can find this guy, I'm talking PlayStation prices here for, you know, 570, again, 580. I don't know if he gets too much lower than that or on Xbox, if you can find like a 560 which is where he was yesterday. This guy is so rare. He's probably going to bounce back again and be up in like the 650, 660 range in a week. It's going to be that kind of crazy bounce in some of these Serie A cards. I think, I think also since Boatang expires on Tuesday, some of your Bundesliga center backs, especially the live items. And that's another kind of thing that I want to look at is just some of the live items today because a lot of these cards are still kind of low, especially ones that got hit because of Boatang. And I think these guys are going to bounce back because road to the finals are so very rare. If you see sell off on any of these cards, even headliners and road to the finals, Upamakano, Alaba, Kloss Sherman, keep an eye on those because we are two weeks away from Champions League games. So make sure you watch road to the finals this week for sure for the ones that have good matchups, right? That's key. Do a little bit of research. Go look at the matchups for the games that are on February 16th. I think those are the first games that we have, like Griezmann, man. This card is ridiculously low. And these are cards that I would 100% keep an eye on as we get towards. Now, Footbin had a massive undercut here. They said 360 for this Griezmann card, which would be ridiculously low for him. So that's a card I'm going to keep an eye on because this guy really hasn't risen up much. And I feel like people are going to be looking to road to the finals as honestly just an investment, right? Whether they're buying them for their team or if they're just honestly buying them because they want to see them rise as we near Champions League and Europa League games. These guys are going to be rising in the next couple of days in my opinion. Even guys that were hit because of the new SBCs, I think these guys are going to get hyped up a little bit and you're going to see a rise. Oblak even as well. I mean, this guy is so rare, right? He's so rare. This guy's down to 265. So keep an eye on these cards, especially today with the weak and the sell-off. The more meta of course, the better. But again, I think the reason why we're not seeing the rise on the market that we were really expecting and to be fair, we are seeing a really, really nice rise in some areas. Let me preface this by saying that, right? You have cards on this game like icons that are absolutely flying. This Mid Desai last week, he's a million coins, man. This Mid Desai is a million coins. He was like 880, 900,000 coins last week. So some of the icons are just exploding. I mean, I've talked about Garencha, right? I missed the Stoikov today at 1.5. He's actually over 1.6 mil. He was in the 1.4s last week, right? Hullet baby. This card was selling at 1.5 million coins, 1.5 mil over the weekend this weekend. And he was a 1.1, 1.2 million card even after he had risen because of Robin and Clyber. I flipped a real Ferdinand baby card tonight at 1.32 mil that I bought at 1.22. And this guy literally last week was like 1.1. So you're seeing some of crazy, crazy rises on these cards. This long middle card was 1.25 last week. He's up like crazy. Makka Lele, who I'm trying to flip right now has been 1.3 mil a weekend. And I got this for 1.2, trying to get a nice flip right there. So that's the kind of stuff that you saw on my transfer list as well. I had an Alejandro Gomez. This guy was 240,000 coins for his inform and his team of the group stage cards are ones that I would definitely keep an eye on because this guy was really expensive earlier this week. 203 at the moment. And this guy was 240. Of course, links to Ronaldo and links to DiBala. And of course, DiBala goes away in a couple of days as well, I think. So you could see this guy bounce back with the Serie A being so prevalent right now as people build their teams around the new SBCs in FIFA. So again, I like those two leagues for a rise out of packs. But again, that's why you're seeing a lot of the gold cards just get sold off, right? Veran, 100,000 coins for arguably the most OP center back in the game. I just think that with the supply, again, I should have stuck to my guns, right? I thought that a lot of these cards would have the potential to rise post team of the year like they did last year. Originally before I looked at last year's graphs though, what I knew about these gold cards was is that they were just so supplied and the supply on the gold cards this year is just different than any other year. That's why we saw some of the crazy drops post Black Friday on Mbappe and on Neymar. And I think that even with some of the other gold cards this year, it's just the supply that is crazy to me on these items. And I think that's why you're seeing these guys not really rise post team of the year. And of course, that Boateng SBC is not helping people in their defense, right? You know, some people are probably still gonna use Veran and Mendy. People might revert back to using Veran after team of the year is over because hey, maybe Boateng isn't that good for them. But, you know, a lot of center backs this game are down, Van Dyke is out of packs and the dude has dropped 20k, which is kind of crazy. I think he's like 180,000 coins at the moment, which is wild. And this guy's literally out of packs right now. So that's the kind of stuff that you're seeing. And I think it's, again, just that supply combined with everybody is just flocking towards the Boateng SBC, the Bundesliga back line with the special cards and the Serie A attack. So that's one thing that I'll be looking for out of this weekend as well for possible investment. Now, one thing I wanna say as well is, wow, we have a situation. Is the man of the match card design, it is not. We have a little situation here on Christian Erickson, my guy. His Fanta card is 34,000 coins. Watch these Fanta cards and watch this week's team of the week because, actually that might have been a saucy undercut according to FootBank because this guy's been around 40, so maybe 34 was a bit of an undercut. We'll see, no, it was not. Wow, but man of the match cards, especially Kiesa and Erickson I think, maybe Phil Foden a little bit, but Erickson the most, maybe Greenwood actually, watch those guys, they should be only in packs until Tuesday I think. Basically when the team of the years go out of packs late that night I think these guys will go out as well because that's usually how man of the matches work. But I want you guys to keep an eye on this week's team of the week, team of the year cards and the team of the year honorable mentions because these cards are gonna be rare. They're gonna be very rare. The honorable mention cards in my opinion are gonna be great to flip with and possibly rising out of packs after Tuesday because they're not that expensive for the most part. I think Kier is a great card for 240. I know he doesn't fit into what people are doing with their teams right now, but he is French and there's gonna be French links that come back, right? French is the most popular nation in FIFA. Robertson is a permanent left back, 330k, he was 300k, he's gonna rise out of packs in my opinion and Marquinhos had 120,000 coins. I know people have freeze Marquinhos already in their teams, but the PSG and the Brazilian links for me are gonna reign supreme here and I think you will see a nice rise out of packs on him. And then the current team of the week, I wanna talk about these cards as well because nobody's talking about investing in these and usually Saturday nights are honestly the cheapest for some of these cards. If I had to pick one card item out of this week's team of the week that I would like for a market rise in the next few days, it would be this, the young card, 170,000 coins for the Dutch links that people are still sort of using with Robin and the Barcelona links and people just love the young. In FIFA, this is first special card of the year. He bounced back big time on Friday night from like 180K back to 210 and now he's down into 170. So this might be honestly, especially right now with people are on the game, they're gonna have coins, right? The investing people in FIFA are gonna be on their best game, right? The Patriots are gonna be going, the mass buyers are gonna be going in the next few weeks because people have coins again in FIFA. They wanna make coins, head it out of team of the year. Some people are gonna fall off the game because they think it's over. We're probably gonna have future stars though and people are gonna wanna make coins because they spent a lot in upgrade packs. So just keeping on the team of the week. I like De Young, Madison, Bernardo Silva, Pope and El Vetti. I do like El Vetti because this guy today I already saw him bounce between like 17 and 20,000 coins. I think this might be his only inform, is that true? Flippen says right now he's 17K but that's actually not true. But if this guy had 17,000 coins, in my mind is a steal. Again, with the Bundesliga hype that's going on right now, this guy's honestly a pretty good steal at 17K. I think a lot of people are gonna be investing in this so watch out for overinvestment but I do think there are some cards out of this team of the week that will rise. And then talking about team of the years, I got my eye on this guy. I have my eye on Manuel Neuer because 480,000 coins for the goalkeeper that links to the SBC that literally everybody is doing with their fodder crafting from team of the year. I think this guy's getting too cheap. If I, this is the cheapest he's basically been. He's been 480K on Thursday during the lightning rounds and this is like his lowest point honestly. I'm getting very interested in Neuer. I don't know if we see lightning rounds today on Sunday. We didn't have any yesterday on Saturday. They've kind of been doing it every other day. So maybe we do see a little bit more supply today but that's not something I'd be super worried about in all honesty because these cards do go out of packs on Tuesday. So I feel like this is gonna be the start of when if team of the years are gonna rise out of packs you'll see people start to buy into them. Now if you look at the team of the year at a whole the prices don't look that great, right? They don't look that great because I think there's still a lot of people that have bought these cards that are holding onto them but it seems like a lot of these guys have just simmered, right? They're just kind of simmered in price. They haven't gone bananas. Van Dyke is the one that's held his rise the best. Van Dyke and Trent. Trent was 9.50 on Thursday. Van Dyke was like under 2.4 and Davies as well. Davies was 1.59. Davies is gonna hold his price because of course he's one of the most meta left-backs in the game. Everybody wants to use him. But if you want yourself like a Kimmich, a Ramos, especially like a Neuer. I mean, I do honestly think that these cards are probably gonna tick up out of packs unless we have a crazy week of future stars next week. If that is the next promo, I do like Neuer if you're like for a possible investment on team of the year, just because everybody did. Everybody did that boating SPC and I also like Neuer's inform because some people I know will see a 500,000 coin keeper and they'll just be like, yo, I can't spend that much on a goalkeeper in this game. So I also like this Neuer inform in the 180,000 coin range on the PlayStation console. I'm not entirely sure what he is in Xbox but I think it's about the same. But this guy's a rare team of the week item and it's half the price of the team of the year. So I think a lot more people will be interested in this card as well. So this guy was 220, he's back down to 180s. So buying into the hype leagues and nations of cards that have already gone up. We talked about Alejandro Gomez, Manuel Neuer. Those are cards that I would definitely keep an eye on and then Icon Trading. Icon Trading is gonna be fantastic because again, this is what I wanna leave you guys with and I mentioned it earlier but this market is still very healthy. The market has a lot of coins. People are trying out cards, people are playing with players in their teams. That's why you see icons rising. That's why you see some of the high tier market rising on the out of pack special cards like Messi, team of the group stage. Some other of the cards that are in the Serie A that have gone up exponentially. Some headliners as well. Bruno Fernandez headliner is still 1.9 mil. Some headliner situations with Gretzgera. He's got COVID and they did get their streak win. So some people have bought into Gretzgera because he went from about 800,000 coins down to 700K. My thoughts on this is he was just a little bit too low today. I think he was a little over invested and he has all the links. So I like this. If you can find them again at like 670K and that's what his lowest was before people started buying him back a little bit and the listing stopped after Bayern confirmed their fourth win in a row. So this guy will get upgraded on Wednesday. I think Bomba is in the same situation and seeing again how high this card is, we were talking about it a little bit today on stream. I might consider cashing out if you have this Bomba as an investment. If they do win today, I think they play on Sunday. I would cash it out. I might cash it out before the game because this guy is really, really high and I think he might drop a little bit like Gretzgera did. Of course, not Serie A, not Bundesliga really hyped up right now. But we'll see. Live items almost have like minds of their own. They're kind of crazy on FIFA anyway. So I just wanted to kind of talk about this, why you're not seeing the part of the market rise. Some of the markets risen a lot. Other parts of it haven't risen that much. They've actually gone down a lot. And I just want to kind of present more thoughts around that today and give you guys some possible buys because again, this market is pretty healthy, right? It's pretty healthy. People's minds are just focused on that Ronaldo, on that Boateng and the links to those cards. And that's where I think if people are focused there, you want to focus there as well as we go through into this next week. Really curious to see what EA does this next week. The content has just been kind of lackluster so far. And I feel like they might lose some of the hype on FIFA and they might lose some people playing FIFA right after Team of the Year if they don't spice it up with future stars and make it pretty interesting. So that's the video for today, boys. If you liked it, make sure you give it a thumbs up, comment down below if you have any questions and subscribe if you're new. It's been Nathan Foddekount and I will catch you guys later. Peace out.
