FIFA 21 TOTW 21: Complete squad analysis, player highlights, and Ultimate Team strategies
TOTW 21 Highlights and Analysis
The latest FIFA 21 Team of the Week showcases standout performers from global football, with Premier League stars particularly shining this round. These upgraded In-Form cards offer significant stat improvements that can transform your Ultimate Team lineup.
EA Sports has delivered another exciting TOTW selection, with Arsenal’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang leading the attack after his clinical hat-trick against Leeds United.
Manchester City’s defensive stalwart John Stones earns his place following another clean sheet, while Leicester’s Wilfred Ndidi dominates midfield with his all-action displays. The Premier League representation is particularly strong this week, offering excellent chemistry links for hybrid squads.
Aubameyang’s 89-rated card now boasts 90 pace and 87 shooting, making him a deadly counter-attacking option. Meanwhile, Romelu Lukaku’s two-goal performance for Inter Milan earns him an 87-rated ST card with 88 physicality. Watford’s Ismaïla Sarr receives a pacey RM option (86 pace) after contributing two goals and two assists.
For squad building, consider pairing TOTW Stones with regular Ruben Dias for perfect chemistry, or create a Premier League midfield trio with Ndidi, Ilkay Gündoğan (84-rated CAM), and Josh Dasilva (79-rated CM).
Release Details and Availability
EA Sports activated TOTW 21 in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team on February 17 at 6pm GMT, following their standard weekly release schedule. These time-sensitive player items will remain available for exactly one week before rotating out.
Global release times convert to 10am Pacific, 12pm Central, 1pm Eastern, and 3am Australian Eastern Time. Pro tip: The first two hours after release typically see the highest pack weights for TOTW players.
Market watch: Aubameyang’s TOTW card usually commands premium pricing (200-300k initially), while hidden gems like Ndidi (estimated 50-70k) often represent better value. Monitor prices closely between 24-48 hours post-release for potential bargains as supply increases.
Pro Strategy: Consider opening reward packs immediately after content drops when pack weights are typically highest. Save your high-value packs (Mega, Rare Players) for TOTW releases rather than standard promos.
Prediction Accuracy Review
Our pre-release forecasts successfully identified 14 of the 23 players ultimately included in TOTW 21, with several surprise inclusions shaking up expectations. Let’s analyze the hits, misses, and unexpected selections.
Correct calls included Aubameyang (3 goals), Lukaku (2G/1A), and Sarr (2G/2A), though we underestimated Emi Martinez’s inclusion after just one clean sheet. The Aston Villa keeper’s 82-rated card features improved reflexes (84) and positioning (83).
Notable omissions: Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah (1G/1A) and Tottenham’s Harry Kane (2A) surprisingly missed out despite strong performances. EA likely saved them for future TOTWs to spread out high-profile cards.
Future Watch: Next week’s TOTW could feature Champions League performers, making this weekend’s domestic matches particularly crucial for players on the bubble. Watch for midweek European match impacts on future selections.
