Helping you pick the best FIFA 16 players in the career mode
With the January Transfer Market behind us, we are conducting the largest player update to FIFA Ultimate Team. Every Friday throughout the month of February, many player items will see upgrades based on that player's real-world performance this season. As important as it is to have a stout defence and a terrifying strike partnership, your midfielders will affect the game more than anyone else on the pitch. Whether it’s protecting the back line, supporting the forwards, winning the ball or scoring goals themselves, the players in the middle of the pitch are crucial to every phase of the match and a top-quality midfield will win you plenty of matches throughout the season.
Every position on the football pitch is important. We’ve already made the argument for having a dominant midfield over all else in our best midfielders round-up and sure – your midfield can control an entire game for you. But having all the possession isn’t going to get you anywhere if you don’t have someone to score you some goals. Even in matches where you’re completely outclassed, one good striker can always give you a chance to snatch a point, or perhaps even three. After all, as beloved football philosopher Michael Owen once said, "Whichever team scores more goals usually wins."
Here are 10 of the best striking options available in FIFA 16 Career Mode, from ready-made foxes in the box to potential superstars. We’ve already suggested some FIFA 16 Career mode high-potential wonderkids in another piece, but if you’re looking for a quality midfield signing that can fit straight into your first-XI, we’ve got the goods right here. So whether you need a bruising enforcer, a tricky CAM player to unlock opposing defences, or someone quick and skilful to play out wide, read on for our favourite FIFA 16 Career Mode midfielders.
Making your first signings in FIFA 16 can be quite the daunting process. There are so many names and figures, how can you know which are the best FIFA 16 players? After all, it's down to you to seek out the FIFA 16 wonderkids, discovering your very own Messi. We're loving the new global transfer network in the game, even if it is a little depressing when your transfer budget is negatively effected by on-pitch performance. Poland have a produced some of the finest keepers in recent years and Dragowski looks set to be added to that illustrious list. Currently one of the hottest prospects in world football, the 17-year old already shows great maturity and should be a calming presence in between the sticks.
Valued at £2m, Jagiellonia Bialystok should be willing to do business for around £5-6m. Improving on his £1,000 wages shouldn't be a problem either. When doing the first review of the game, I used a ranged character, which was pretty straightforward – point at an enemy and attack. For the most part, if they were in your view they were attackable already (and if not, they were running anyways, so it wasn’t much of an issue to stand still). With melee, however, things do change a bit. While you still attack in the same way (by pointing your cursor where you want to attack towards), most attacks are very close-range. As a result, you spend a considerable amount of time trying to run to a good position within enemies so you can attack as many at once as possible.
