I did actually want to speak about something with you Kyle.
Because Layton, I don't know if you know this.
but Kyle actually tried to go pro at one point
and lost 12-0
and he's kept so quiet for so long.
Hello and welcome to episode five of EA Sports In The Game.
My name’s Kyle Walker and as always, I'm joined by FG and Layton.
I'm surprised you've made it, though. You've been everywhere this week.
I've been traveling absolutely everywhere, been to Germany and back also Kyle,
I've got the same trainers on as you
We’re matching?
A certain member in the studio who didn't get the memo.
I don't like them that much.
Oh, okay.
You’re going old school, you’re going with the classics
We’ll rock the style
ten out of ten for us
You're a stylish guy Layton.
I don't know why you...
I thought I’d give you a chance to keep up.
It’s been a few weeks, know what I mean?
let's not talk about it ay? Now anyway before we get into all of the stuff
on the virtual pitch, let's talk about, well, breaking news.
This man right here at FG. Woah.
when I saw this live this week, I could not believe it at all.
You finally won a competitive game of FIFA 23.
I don't know why you’re laughing.
Everyone at home, have a look at this.
If anyone needs a pro, here I am.
Famous last words from FG, I mean.
Layton, what did you make of that FG there beating RB Leipzigs Ebru
in a competitive game of FIFA?
You’ve gotta give it to him surely?
It was good.
But you can't do it here.
Listen, under pressure.
But you can't do it here.
On home turf.
That should be a warning shot to you both.
You know, I have one competitive win now.
Okay.
Amazing.
What so you’re calling us out?
I’m unbeaten.
It’s your job.
I’m the only one in the studio with a competitive win?
Right. Well, there are two legs. Okay.
That is what I will say.
So obviously got a bit of time now to adjust, to prepare.
What are you going to do before that home leg.
We expecting the same result.
Well, I got lucky, so I'm going to hope for more of the same.
She was really good, by the way, like no joke.
And obviously I just got a little bit lucky,
but I did actually want to speak about something with you Kyle
Because Layton, I don't know if you know this.
but Kyle actually tried to go pro at one point
and lost 12-0
and he's kept so quiet for so long.
I didn’t try and go pro.
You can check it out on the Manchester City YouTube channel.
I created a documentary series about FIFA Esports.
I was the birth of Manchester City Esports.
That's all I'm saying.
How are you going to get beat 12-0
FG, you wouldn't be here if it wasn't for me. That's all I'm saying.
boys, boys, boys. Let’s settle it down
Let’s settle it down.
We know who’s the best. So let's just move on.
Let’s move on! Let’s move on, I like that
It's been a very jam packed February for the Manchester City men's and women's teams.
They've been plenty of fixtures to play in this month.
So let's have a look at all the highlights
as we saw there.
And as I said, it's been an action packed month.
We’re getting to the business end of the season.
Both the men's and women's team beating Arsenal
We had that draw against Leipzig as well.
Layton, looking forward to the rest of the season?
We have to be excited, you know what I mean
that's what it's what we do. and it's the crunch time, as you say.
It's coming to the business end of the season.
And this is where we have to really band together
and get the results we've seen through the men's team in the women's team
our away games, tough games, and we've been able to pull through.
So hopefully we can
we can keep that strength going through for the rest of the season.
Well, when they play great. In FIFA 23 they're rewarded with those incredible
FUT items.
But before we get into those, well, there's actually two other
new characters in FIFA 23 that we've got to talk about.
And any idea who they are?
I know exactly who they are.
Go on, reveal it to us FG.
And I know exactly how much they cost.
Moonbeam and Moonchester.
There we go
You can see them in FIFA ultimate team, right now.
Fun fact everyone watching, that's FG
and that's Layton actually in the costume
And I’m the taller one
I mean, it's great you guys enjoy being in there.
How was it filming that and being in the game finally?
You’re in the game as mascots?
The atmosphere was electric.
If I had a FIFA card,
If I had Moonchester or Moonbeam had a FIFA card we’d be 99 rated and 6ft5 right?
I agree. I agree.
5ft5, it would definitely be for FG.
Anyway, I made you guys guess who was going to be the new characters
in FIFA ultimate team and talking about guessing games.
Well, it's time for our latest installment of Who the Fut
Stefan Ortega and of course Cole Palmer went head to head in this latest episode.
All I can say is I got 3 out of 3, right there.
Stefan Ortega, he was struggling.
How many did you get in that video Layton be honest?
Out of those three, did you get Riyad Mahrez?
Did you get John Stones? Did you get Phil Foden?
Yeah
Be honest.
No.
How many did you get?
I got two. I got Phil and I got John.
Okay.
And FG I know that you got 0
I actually did get zero I get humbled every time I do this, by the way.
Right. Well, let's move on then.
Now it's time to talk about
those Manchester City special FUT items that are in game
and no better place to start our World Cup winner and our future star.
Julian Alvarez
what an incredible FUT item and what an incredible player.
Just overall, we've spoken
so much about Julian Alvarez, especially in the last episode as well.
World Cup winner, we've got to say.
FG this FUT item you've said you've used him.
I can see by your face you're blown away by this one
It is absolutely unreal.
It reminds me of Sergio Aguero’s old scream FUT item.
It's literally incredible. It's so expensive.
I had to sell it to raise funds for the club.
But he’s very good.
He's very good, but I had to sell him.
But he’s very, very good.
Layton, you got your hands on him? no?
I didn't get him.
I didn't get the shoes.
I think this is outrageous.
there’s a little bit of bitterness right here
Let's move on once again now.
Manchester City,
they never short of special items when it comes to FIFA ultimate team.
We've also got Rodri, De Bruyne feature in Team of the Week 17
and Kalvin Phillips with an 88 rated Road to the Final FUT item.
I mean, FG, once again, we always talk about this year on year,
the players get better the FUT items get better and look at these.
Where do we start Kyle?
This is the midfield of dreams and Kalvin Phillips is a live FUT item,
so it's based on how we do in the Champions League. He’s unbelievable.
Rodri, obviously
hasn't got the pace on his side, but he's very good Layton will confirm
I’ve used him!
I've got one I've actually used.
I got him and I love him so much.
We don't need any words for Kevin.
He got so many special items because he's so good and that's just incredible.
But this is your new midfield, Perth that right there.
Perfect right there.
Unless you have to sell them to make some funds for the club
If you get any of these FG you can’t sell a single one of them
I’m telling you and anyone at home you can't sell them as well.
Some incredible FUT items.
Guys, it's been a pleasure, though.
That's all we have for this latest episode of EA Sports In The Game.
Make sure you drop us a comment.
What do you make of all of those FUT items that were on that screen?
Have you packed them? Have you got them? Have you used them?
Let us know what you think, guys. FG, Layton.
See you next time and I'll see you soon.
