In this week’s high profile FIFA 19 team of the week selection, we have a Fortnite fanboy, a little Argentine maestro and a man called Jesus.
Kicking things off we have FC Barcelona’s incredible Lionel Messi, Messi earnt his first inform card after scoring 3 goals in Barcelona’s 5-0 impressive display against Levante in the La Liga match last weekend. Messi’s card has a 96 rating and is incredibly OP. Stats include 90 pace, 98 dribbling, 93 shooting and 92 passing, meaning quite literally Messi’s 96 card is a god-like, unstoppable wizard at this point in the game.
When the French world cup winner isn’t busy taking the L, you’ll generally find him kicking ass on the football field and that’s exactly what he did last weekend for Atletico Madrid, as he scored 2 goals and led them to a crucial 3-2 win over Valladolid, to keep the pressure on Barcelona at the top of the standings. Greizmann’s inform card has a rating of 91 and has an impressive balance making the card well stacked in all areas. The ratings include 90 pace, 90 dribbling, 89 shooting, and 84 passing.
Fabinho gets the nod after a man of the match display in Liverpool’s 3-1 win against Manchester United. His card has a rating of 86 and includes the following stats, 73 pace, 79 dribbling, 70 shooting, 80 passing, 85 defending and 85 physical. EA probably named the engine chemistry card after this machine as his stamina is an insane 94!! The guy just never tires.
