La Liga POTM for October. This month is the same as previous, I guess it’s a thing for La Liga. There are games on 28th and 29th of November, but La Liga already announced POTM Nominees. Let’s do the same as before, this is not Predictions, this is more like a guide thing about POTM for November.
Still have no idea why they did it, but because of this I include last game of Previous Month to count for this month stats
Let’s start this.
Joao Felix is the favorite to win POTM. Joao finally hit a great form in Atletico. 4 goals and 1 assist to his name in 3 games that I counted for POTM should secure him an award. Joao is fan favorite option too, I just don’t see him not winning an award when all the stars aligned for him.
In terms of FUT we’ll get a very desirable card, who will get into a lot of people’s teams. 87 rated card that will have nice stats and can be played anywhere in attack. I expect it to be very desirable card.
Chances of POTM: 60%
Tips for investing:
Investing in fodder for POTM overall works, but fodder doesn’t rise as much, just because… not a lot of good SBCs were released. People expected Icon SBCs to bump up the price of fodder, but it didn’t do it, due to meh choices. And also not repeatable Base Icon SBC didn’t make fodder rise. So fodder is still should be a move, but you should check prices of them, when they are at lowest.
Worth investing? I’m not sure anymore. Fodder doesn’t rise as much as in previous games and don’t think it will move much due to Felix. BUT! There’s Futmas coming next month and it can make fodder more expensive.
Estimated cost: 350-500k. Interesting SBC, I expect it to be closer to 500k. Just because of hype, nice stats, links, etc. People would want it and that makes him more expensive. For example we can take Bamba, who wasn’t supposed to be this expensive, but still managed to be 300k+ and worth more than Lewa. Link to Sanches also plays a part.
As for other cards – I won’t cover them as in deep and I don’t think that any of those cards have a chance of winning, so I’ll cover potential cards, their stats, prices, etc.
Mikel Oyarzabal can win 2nd POTM in a row, and it’ll be a deserved one too. He only scored 2 goals this month, but still managed to perform well. Sociedad currently sit at 1st in table and Oyarzabal played a big part in it too.
His potential card would be 89. Or 90. I’m not sure, as I think the rules that rating goes by 1, after card receives 88 rating. So yeah, 89 Oyarzabal looks good, but still has same problems as 88 – 3* WF 3* SM.
I’d say price would be around 200k. Just a little bit more expensive than 88 rated card.
Paco Alcacer and Yusuf En-Nesyri are similar type of POTMs nominees – strikers, who scored 1 and 2 goals and got assists (for example Paco got 2 assists). Both teams won 2 games and got 1 draw this month and both were their best players.
Their cards in FUT would be similar too – 86 and 84 rated. With decent pace, good shooting, but nothing special.
And their price would be around 40k max. Not desirable cards at all. Type of Season pass rewards.
Jaume is also nominated. And I don’t know how. Valencia played 3 games, vs Getafe and Alaves they drew 2-2 and vs Real Madrid they won 4-1. Carlos Soler got 4 goals and 1 assist in those games and didn’t get nominated. Jaume conceded 5 goals in 3 games and got nominee. I’m really confused why this happened.
His card wouldn’t be desirable and wouldn’t worth more than 20k. It’s 84 rated GK in the end.
2 Silver nominees this month:
Marcos Andre from Valladolid scored 2 goals in 3 games and kinda similar to Paco\En-Nesyri cards, probably looks like a very average 82 rated card and won’t get voted.
Edgar Badia from Elche got nominated for playing well for Elche in 3 games: 1-1 vs Celta and Levante and 3-1 loss vs Betis. Honestly, I can’t name a reason why he got nominated. His best mark is for a game vs Betis, which they lost and that’s all. But again – he woudn’t get voted, so in the end no reason to complain.
I think Felix will easily win it. Due to popularity and hype in game.Just no opponents for him this month and everyone want a good Felix card. Hopefully it won’t be too expensive!
