FC 25 TOTY: Dominate the Midfield with These New Stars
2025-01-20 09:29
The January 19th update for FC 25's TOTY introduced several highly anticipated midfielders, bringing fresh blood to the game and providing players with more strategic options. This update features both men's and women's TOTY players, with a particularly noteworthy midfield selection. The addition of men's players like Bellingham, Rodri, and Palmer, alongside women's players like Reiten, Putellas, and Salma opens up new possibilities for squad building and tactical deployment.
Bellingham's release is a highlight of this update. As a midfielder, Bellingham boasts impressive six-stat ratings, with 87 in defending and most other stats above 90. He is well-balanced in both attacking and defensive transitions, making him a versatile midfield option. However, despite his strong attributes, Bellingham's weakness lies in his weaker traits, especially the lack of high-tier gold traits, which might put him at a slight disadvantage against other top-tier players. Therefore, players using this card might need to rely more on his overall stats rather than specific skills.
Rodri is another noteworthy addition. As a defensive midfielder, Rodri's strengths lie in defense and controlling the game's tempo. His defensive stats are very high, and he also performs well in passing and ball distribution. Rodri possesses several gold traits, allowing him to play a crucial defensive role, especially suitable for players who prioritize defense and counter-attacks. Compared to Bellingham, Rodri is better suited as a holding midfielder, effectively disrupting opponents' attacks and supporting the forwards.
Palmer is a relatively affordable and versatile card. While he doesn't excel in any particular skill, his well-rounded abilities make him a multipurpose player. Palmer is suitable as an attacking midfielder or right-sided player. Although his dribbling and traits aren't as strong as other top players, his flexibility and adaptability make him a good value option. However, if you plan to use Palmer as a right-sided player, consider his strengths are more suited to central positions.
On the women's side, Reiten is a left winger or attacking midfielder known for her agility and attacking prowess. Reiten is relatively inexpensive, but her mobility and offensive threat make her a sought-after player. Putellas is a balanced player, although slightly weaker defensively, her attacking contributions are significant, making her suitable as an attacking midfielder. Salma is another highly anticipated player; despite weaker defensive stats, her attacking capabilities are also noteworthy.
Besides player updates, this update also includes SBCs and Evolution cards. For example, players can obtain the Marquinhos card through an SBC, with a moderate difficulty and an estimated budget of 300,000 FUT coins. Although Ligue 1 players aren't as popular as those from other leagues, the Marquinhos card still holds some market value. For Evolution cards, this update offers a free 87-rated attacking midfielder evolution. While the stat boosts aren't exceptionally high, it's still a decent option for a substitute player.
For players planning resource investments, upcoming updates are also worth noting. Gareth Bale's TOTY card is expected to be released soon, possibly during the "Full Team" event around January 20th or 21st. Therefore, if you're planning a significant investment, waiting for Bale's release might be a better choice, as his card is expected to have high market value and usability. Salma's card will also be released in the coming days, and although her full stats aren't yet revealed, it’s a highly anticipated release.
The current Weekend League is also in its final stages, with players having one day left to secure higher rankings and rewards. For those still striving to improve their Weekend League ranking, the current player updates and SBCs provide a good opportunity to strengthen their squads.
This update not only brings a new batch of powerful player cards but also expands player choices through SBCs and Evolution cards. From new player additions to the upcoming Bale card, players have many opportunities to optimize their squads in the coming days. Smart resource management and staying updated on new content will be key to success in the game.
