The 3 best Inform cards in TOTW 26
In the current TOTW, there are several players with decent ratings. Here we take a look at the three highest-rated.
- Karim Benzema received a strong 93 rating, especially excelling in dribbling and shooting. Although the Frenchman does not have the best pace, he can become extremely dangerous with a chemistry style boost in speed. Additionally, his Headliners card is now improved.
- Serge Gnabry is featured with an 87-rated card in TOTW 26. This card is slowly coming close to his Freeze card, which could be obtained from an SBC in the winter. Those who missed out on that but would like to have a strong Gnabry in their team might want to consider this. However, keep in mind that the new TOTW Gnabry is positioned as LM, not centrally.
- Dries Mertens has received an Inform card with a rating of 86. The Belgian is generally a good player in the FIFA series, scoring with a good mix of speed, dribbling, finishing, and passing. His What-If card is, however, slightly stronger.
The Bundesliga and 2nd League in TOTW 26
In the new Team of the Week, alongside Gnabry, there are other representatives from the Bundesliga.
- Freiburg’s Günter has earned an 82-rated card, which, although it does not have high values, is notable for its speed.
- In the offense, Frankfurt’s André Silva is once again included, who is very dangerous in front of goal. A weakness is his passing stats, and his pace could be higher.
- From the 2. Bundesliga, Hamburg’s Tim Leibold is included again. The left midfielder has received an 84-rated card with strong pace and good dribbling. However, his finishing stats are not impressive – the shot value is just 68.
Lastly, Meppen’s center-back Puttkammer is also part of TOTW 26. However, this card is likely more for fans, as the center-back has quite low values.
Currently, there is an ongoing discussion about center-backs. Many players are currently setting up their teams in FIFA 21 incorrectly.
