It looks like Silver Stars is also wrapping up for FIFA 21, and we've got the latest here on who is rounding things out.

FUTTIES Thiago Mendes Player Review

At just a 95 OVR rating, Mendes might not seem worthwhile when considering some of the 98 and 99 OVR behemoths coming out lately.

However, with just a few reasonable squads required, Thiago Mendes is an absolute steal once you realize some of the ratings he has.

With only three ratings under 80, his mere 70s levels in Volleys, Penalties, and Heading Accuracy, FUTTIES Thiago Mendes is devoid of any glaring weaknesses.

On top of that, he's got a perfect 99 rating in Ball Control, Shot Power, Interceptions, Short Passing, Stamina, and Aggression.

Just behind that, he's got a 98 in Long Passing, 97s in Reactions and Composure, and 95s in Long Shots, Agility, Balance, and Dribbling.

With everything else in the 80s and 90s, you don't wanna miss out on getting this excellent centre midfielder on your squad.
