Team of the Year is supposed to bring together the best of the best players, who will then receive an upgrade in FIFA 22. However, some of EA\u2019s nominees are real head-scratchers this time around. It\u2019s not because they\u2019re all so good it\u2019s tough to pick, either. Some of the players included make you wonder what the qualifications to be nominated actually were. Here, we\u2019ll go over the players that aren\u2019t even worth considering for your TOTY ballot. Worst FIFA 22 TOTY nominees 5. Cristian Romero Since joining Tottenham in 2021, Romero really hasn\u2019t had much of an impact on the club\u2019s fortunes. The 23-year-old has appeared in just seven Premier League matches for Spurs so far, leading to some serious questions of why he was included on the ballot. His performance with the Argentina national side has looked a bit better, but we wouldn\u2019t waste one of our votes on trying to secure him a spot on TOTY \u2013 even if he\u2019s a pacey defender. 4. Mats Hummels Hummels\u2019 inclusion on the list of nominees is one that\u2019s somewhat justified by his Bundesliga performances, but it\u2019s not going to be a worthwhile pick, sadly. For a TOTY lineup potentially stacked with players like Mbappe, Lewandowski, Messi, and more, Hummels simply won\u2019t be able to keep up. That is unless EA absolutely supercharges his Pace, but based on his Headliner and base gold card, that doesn\u2019t seem likely. 3. Lucas Paquet\u00e1 The way the current FIFA meta plays, you\u2019re going to be up the creek without a paddle if you choose players without an engine. That\u2019s why Paqueta, just like Hummels, isn\u2019t worth a vote either. His Pace isn\u2019t as terrible as Hummels, we\u2019ll give him that, but it\u2019s still nothing to write home about. Other midfielders like Heung-Min Son, Mason Mount, Thomas Muller, and Casemiro are just better bets for actually making TOTY, and will probably come with better stats as well. 2. Gerard Moreno Gerard Moreno is a natural goalscorer and lethal finisher at times, but the chances of him being an Ultimate Team success are unlikely. His stats are decent, but compared to other superstars on the list he really just seems like a placeholder or filler EA only included because they didn\u2019t want to make LaLiga fans feel left out. By all means, if you\u2019re a diehard Villareal fan, feel free to include him in your lineup. But, just don\u2019t expect to see him make the first, or second, TOTY teams when they\u2019re finally announced. 1. Harry Kane Finally, we come to Harry Kane. Yes, Tottenham Hotspur fans, two of your players are included here, and there\u2019s not a thing you can do about it. But why Kane? Well, because we\u2019re putting the blame for Tottenham\u2019s disastrous start to the 21\/22 season squarely on his shoulders. The striker has struggled to perform for his team since the start of the campaign, scoring just four goals in 17 Premier League appearances. After a positive tournament at EURO 2020, a transfer saga that kept him away from Manchester City, and then a wasteful start to the season \u2013 the 28-year-old has some way to go to be FIFA 22 TOTY material.
