Player of the Month Serge Gnabry
While his time at the World Cup may have been cut shorter than expected, it was a fruitful month for Serge Gnabry in the Bundesliga during November after scoring 4 goals in 3 appearances, and his efforts have been rewarded with the November POTM award.
In terms of the POTM Item, it’s fair to say it’s a little underwhelming. It doesn’t feature any Weak Foot or Skill Move upgrades (although his regular Item is 4* 4* already), it doesn’t have any alternative positions outside of the obligatory RM position, and it hasn’t really been given a boost big enough to make him desirable for people who want to upgrade their teams, so it isn't anything to shout home about, even if he's very cheap.
However, while he’s not anything special, he provides is a way of saving yourself some coins for future SBCs, which I’ll discuss below.
How much does the Bundesliga POTM Serge Gnabry SBC cost?
Currently, the price of the SBC is around 16,000 coins starting from scratch, but it will be cheaper if you have some untradeables in your club that you can use. The requirements for the SBC are listed below:
Squad 1:
- Min. 1 Player from Bundesliga
- Min. 1 Player with minimum Overall of 85
- Min. Team Rating: 83
The SBC will expire on January 8th, 2023, so you have an entire month to complete it if you want to.
Is the Bundesliga POTM Serge Gnabry SBC worth it?
If you’re looking at this POTM Serge Gnabry as a new option for your team, a far better option is to just buy his (now defunct) World Cup Path to Glory Item. It costs a little more, but the PTG Gnabry has 2 extra Pace, and 1 extra Shooting, Passing, Defending, and Physical over this POTM Item, and is, of course, tradeable, meaning you can sell him whenever you need the coins back. So, in those terms, this SBC is not worth completing.
However, a better way to look at this SBC is to see it as a way to put your extra, low-rated fodder into getting an 87-rated Item for around 4,000 coins cheaper than they are to buy directly from the market. So, if you want to save a few thousand coins for whatever SBC you want to complete right now or in the future, this SBC is definitely worth doing.
