🥅 The Last Line of Defense

Starting from the back, the goalkeeping spot is secured by a world-class talent.

  • Ann-Katrin Berger (94 OVR) - Between the sticks for NJ/NY Gotham FC, Berger is a phenomenal shot-stopper. Her performances in 2024 were legendary, making her 94-rated TOTY card a must-have for any squad looking for security in goal.

🛡️ The Unbreakable Defense

The backline is a fortress, featuring some of the most reliable and skilled defenders in the women's game.

Lucy Bronze makes a grand return to Chelsea and lands a 94-rated card at RB. Her well-rounded abilities make her a rare and exceptional full-back. For the center-back pairing, we have two titans. Irene Paredes of FC Barcelona, getting better with age, anchors the defense with her 94-rated composure and intelligence. Alongside her is the iconic Wendie Renard. The Olympique Lyon captain had an amazing 2024, earning a dominant 95-rated card that's perfect for shutting down even the paciest attackers.

Completing the defense is Sakina Karchaoui. The Paris Saint-Germain left-back is arguably the best in her position and boasts a stellar 95 overall rating. Her card offers blistering pace and solid defensive stats down the flank.

⚡ The Creative & Dynamic Midfield/Wingers

This is where the magic happens! The midfield and wing positions are filled with players who can change a game in an instant.

  • Guro Reitan (96 OVR - LM): A crucial player for Chelsea's WSL title win, this Norwegian winger provides essential width and quality on the left side. Her 96-rated card is a dream for any attacking formation.

  • Lauren James (96 OVR - RW): Fantastic for both club and country, Lauren James is a force of nature on the right wing. Her 96-rated TOTY card's main draw? Blistering, unstoppable pace. 🚀

  • Alexia Putellas (96 OVR - CM): A modern-era great. The two-time Ballon d'Or Féminin winner and FC Barcelona maestro controls the game from midfield with her unparalleled technical ability. Her card is a chance-creating machine.

🎯 The Lethal Attack

The frontline features two of the most devastating attackers in the world, ready to finish any chance that comes their way.

First up is Caroline Graham Hansen. Consistently one of the best forwards, her role in Barcelona's trophy-laden 2023/24 season was massive. EA has rewarded her with a phenomenal 97-rated LW card that will completely transform your team's attack.

And leading the line... Sophia Smith. 🌟 The youngest player on the list, this American sensation for Portland Thorns FC is taking the NWSL by storm. Her lethality in front of goal is mind-blowing. With a 97-rated ST card, she is arguably the single best player you can add to your Ultimate Team this year. Don't miss out on her!
