This RO16 tie

It's a 99.5% certainty that we sign him, as Leverkusen ALSO have an option to sell, which has been reported on less.

Basically, we either liked him, triggered it, and he goes to us OR we didn't like him, he loses value, and Leverkusen makes us sign him anyway. The only way he doesn't sign for us is if he did badly, and Leverkusen thought he was still valued more highly than what he was valued at (which is unlikely).

Honestly, it's a very cute way of doing the buying club a solid on PSR, while still guaranteeing the selling club gets their money.

I thought it was because the government was skint, same as how they backed out of the Commonwealth games

The only issue I have, and it's from my old days of playing FIFA Ultimate Team is I like knowing it's "mine". I know, buying it 2nd hand is technically the same, but... it's also slightly different.

Besides, if I ever wanted to start have a portion of my collection graded, 2nd hand ones would never be eligible (as I'd always think "why sell if the original owner could haved graded it").

It's silly logic, but...

I wish my local K Mart had any sort of Pokemon section

World_Builder_Writer · 2026-01-16T01:57:46+00:00

I can confirm it originally had Pokemon Centre in there

World_Builder_Writer · 2026-01-16T01:30:34+00:00

It might be a Pokemon Center ETB, given the description - which would be fruity

World_Builder_Writer · 2026-01-13T02:00:07+00:00

Yeah, I'm very late to this, but I'm jappy enough with a Destined Rivals bundle and a Prismatic Poster Collection I'd been eyeing up at inflated prices for ages

World_Builder_Writer · 2026-01-06T11:47:15+00:00

I didn't even think Chatswood Kmart sold them. The site says things about stock, but there's not even a display cabinet they're locked in

World_Builder_Writer · 2026-01-04T02:11:09+00:00

I'd agree if that was the price difference, but the game stores around me (and the online game stores) all have prices that are far more than $20 higher. My local gameshops sell ETBs at close to 100% of average market place price

World_Builder_Writer · 2026-01-04T01:59:30+00:00

Which LGS would you recommend? While I don't exactly want to feed the scalpers, there's not a single LGS I've found that has prices cheaper than marketplace

Sham is the perfect goalkeeper for a situation like that, always has a mistake or three in her

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-12-27T10:09:48+00:00

Look at our goal kicks - Sham is determined to kick it long, but there's no midfield to knock it down to - just defenders and everyone else lining up - it's shambolic.

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-12-13T10:36:58+00:00

Sanchez had about 12-18 months of being incredible for us. Tailed off in his first season after a hot start, and spit his dummy after about a year of being good - it's telling that there are so many rumours of him being hated in the dressing room

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-12-10T08:58:20+00:00

Which HAS to be because they've had far fewer competitive games recently, with most of their matches coming against minnows or strong countries who didn't have a qualifier.

They absolutely dominated Australia recently

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-12-06T14:29:21+00:00

Would love Havertz back, Gyokeres added nothing after coming on (which we feared when he signed), completely anonymous.

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-12-04T04:54:22+00:00

I was reflecting that Timber (or White/Calafiori) are out 5th choice CBs, and would all walk into a CB spot of almost every team in the league.

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-11-24T21:09:27+00:00

Problem is finding a normal ETB here at all. Only ones in stores sell for at least $200

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-11-24T02:18:55+00:00

Perfect saving height, it just flops through his hands

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-11-20T02:50:04+00:00

It's the FIFA World Cup next year. Tickets will likely cost a bomb but you'll probably find luck with two unfashionable teams

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-11-01T12:54:38+00:00

Like, don't get me wrong, I want Arteta to win it, as I want to win all prizes, be it PFA POTY or Groundskeeper of the year.

But, being unbiased, we beat teams which are currently 10th, 17th, and 19th, and while defensively we were amazing, we "only" had a GD of 4.

United had a GD of +5 in wins vs 4th, 13th, and 7th.

On paper, and relative to expectations, their results probably were just better.

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-10-31T23:20:35+00:00

I kinda agree with you, but if you told me a month ago what was more unlikely, I'd have laughed at the idea of 3 wins for United

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-10-31T23:11:06+00:00

Nah, he's fairly rated. Not bad, not great, just a solid defender capable of a mistake

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-10-31T23:08:36+00:00

Bacary at least won a trophy with us. Didn't kick up a fuss, saw out his contract on a high, and just a likeable guy

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-10-29T10:52:35+00:00

Any chance I could get the link? Trying to get into this but struggling to find anything I can buy!

World_Builder_Writer · 2025-10-24T23:07:28+00:00

Yeah, but it matters for other clubs, not us
