Review
This is a very nice card, both in terms of ratings and price.
The potential for future upgrades is a tantilising prospect, though Manchester United are the overwhelming favourites to progress past Granada and book a spot in the semi-finals.
Don't be put off by that though, as this card is worth the asking price with or without the upgrades.
