I’ve seen lots of clips of him and he is proper skilful!” FODEN v GREALISH BEN SAYS: “Hmm… I’d say Phil Foden! He came on TikTok and was doing some skills challenges. He’s got quite good…

ADAM RYAN BRENTFORD “For the midfield anchor role you want someone like Patrick Vieira or Yaya Toure – they’re the perfect players to hold that position down and sit back. You need a big defensive player in there who can intercept the ball and cut out the passing lanes!” JACK SHARP BOURNEMOUTH “You need your attackers to be skilful and have a good weak foot to create unpredictability in your attack. You need a bit of height in midfield as the longer legs help interceptions, plus quick defenders to cover through balls and catch up the attackers!” CAMERON WILLEY ASTONVILLA “In attack you will need pace, because through balls are a nice way of getting an easy goal on this year’s FIFA! Having five-star skills does help as it allows…

IN GOAL JACK SAYS: “I’m not messing around and having an outfield player in goal! Manuel Neuer is so tekky when you look back on his career – and he’d probably score!” IN THE MIDDLE JACK SAYS: “He’s the most skilful player in the world so I’ve got to have Paul Pogba in midfield! His ball control is insane and he’s the most skilful street-skills player around. I’ve seen videos of him nutmegging everyone!” AT THE BACK JACK SAYS: “I think Marcelo is the most skilful defender around but ex-Spurs CB Jan Vertonghen is the surprise skiller – he has some insane skills in his locker and would hold down the fort better than Marcelo!” IN THE MIDDLE JACK SAYS: “Lazio’s Felipe Anderson is going to be my other midfielder.…
