October’s LALIGA POTM in FC 27 is Mbappé, but the SBC demands a 5,200,000 Item Score, which makes it very expensive and poor value. It only makes sense if you’re sitting on a lot of spare fodder or untradeable players and want a top-tier striker. In most other cases, I’d skip it.
What’s the best submission plan for the LALIGA POTM October SBC?
These are the plans that best balance total cost against the number of cards submitted:
- 2x 85 OVR + 6,260x 84 OVR (6,262 cards, ~5,294.2k coins)
- 12x 87 OVR + 3x 86 OVR + 2,439x 85 OVR (2,454 cards, ~5,558.6k coins)
- 330x 87 OVR + 2x 86 OVR + 1,608x 85 OVR (1,940 cards, ~5,822.9k coins)
- 647x 87 OVR + 3x 86 OVR + 776x 85 OVR (1,426 cards, ~6,088k coins)
- 21x 88 OVR + 913x 87 OVR + 2x 85 OVR (936 cards, ~6,351.6k coins)
- 335x 88 OVR + 440x 87 OVR (775 cards, ~6,616.3k coins)
These plans are for reference only. Before you start, check which players in your club are eligible, work out whether your budget covers it, and once you’ve settled on a plan, buy any missing cards on the transfer market.

LALIGA POTM Mbappé card and stats breakdown
Despite the steep price, LaLiga POTM Kylian Mbappé is an elite ST who can also play LW.
Elite pace and explosive dribbling
With 97 Pace, 98 Acceleration and 94 Agility, he’s built for direct, vertical runs. On the counter, he can use his acceleration to leave center-backs behind or cut inside from the left into the box.
Reliable finishing
96 Finishing and 92 Shot Power, plus the Finesse Shot and Low Driven Shot PlayStyles, let Mbappé score in a variety of ways. His finishing is top tier.
Excellent dribbling and skill moves
93 Dribbling, 94 Ball Control and 5★ Skill Moves give him a strong 1v1 threat inside the box. If you like using skill moves to create shooting space, this card will suit you well.
In-game weaknesses
- Weak Foot is only 4★, unchanged from his base Gold card. It’s good enough for most finishing situations, but if you often switch feet, he won’t feel as smooth as a 5★ Weak Foot player.
- Physicality is just decent: 77 Physical and 78 Strength are fine but not great, and he’ll struggle against strong, physical center-backs.
- Passing is limited: 81 Passing isn’t bad, but he’s not the right man for heavy playmaking duties.
Is the LALIGA POTM October SBC worth doing?
This POTM Mbappé is a very strong card, but the SBC is poor value. He doesn’t offer a big enough edge over other Mbappé versions, and the biggest drawback is that POTM cards are untradeable.
If your squad needs an upgrade and you have a lot of spare fodder in your club, he’s worth considering. But he’s not a must-do: the Gold 91 and TOTW 92 versions on the market are clearly better value, unless you’re a collector.
