FIFA 21 Weekend League: TOTW 19 card analysis

Team of the Week (TOTW) 19 is now in packs, and there is another high-ticket item to look out for.

Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah is the main attraction this week, although there are some great new Serie A cards.

Mohamed Salah

The standout player this week is potential January Player of the Month, Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.

Salah’s clinical brace against West Ham capped off a great week for the Reds and he has been rewarded with a huge new 92 OVR.

His IF card is valued just under the 2-million-coin mark currently.

Chemistry Links

This all depends on your formation. Realistically there are no other Egyptian players you will want in your team, so we are looking for Premier League or ICON players.

Kevin De Bruyne, Bruno Fernandes and N’Golo Kante are your best midfield options.

If you completed the Roberto Firmino FUT Freeze SBC, then he will be ideal!

Alternative Players

Salah does command a hefty price tag, so who can you pick instead of him?

His first IF card and even his basic card are still excellent and cost a fraction of the price, so we would start there!

If he doesn’t fit your team but you have plenty of coins, then ICON Luis Figo is your best bet.

Joao Cancelo

There are only a handful of players on FUT 21 that can best each of Joao Cancelo’s attributes, and only one of them is a right back!

Team of the Year (TOTY) Trent Alexander-Arnold is the best RB on the game, but he will cost around 1 million coins more than Cancelo!

The Portuguese star boasts solid all-round stats and could be the perfect RWB if you play 3/5 at the back.

Chemistry Links

Cristiano Ronaldo. EA recently released a flashback card for CR7 which has given players the opportunity to add a more affordable version to their squad.

In midfield, Man City and Portugal teammate Bernardo Silva offers a perfect chemistry link.

Rulebreakers Aymeric Laporte is a strong option in defence and also offers that transition to French players too.

Alternative Players

Depending on your formation, Cancelo’s first IF card is a cheaper alternative although it is a RM card.

Cancelo’s UCL Live card is not much more expensive either, so that could be worth a punt as it is likely to improve!

Premier League right backs Kyle Walker and Ricardo Pereira are also similar and cheaper options to Cancelo.
