Joe Rankin-Costello\u2019s FIFA 21 Ultimate Team criticized by players EA SPORTSBlackburn Rovers midfielder Joe Rankin-Costello has been spotted playing FIFA 21\u2019s Ultimate Team. It\u2019s fair to say FIFA players weren\u2019t particularly impressed with his squad and have questioned his selection of players. Over the past few weeks, numerous professional footballers have been seen on FIFA 21\u2019s Ultimate Team. From Chelsea\u2019s Mason Mount to Borussia Dortmund\u2019s Erling Haaland, FUT is clearly a pastime a lot of footballers enjoy. Despite being in an incredibly demanding job, these players still find the time to make some insanely stacked FUT rosters. Haaland\u2019s starting XI was completely made up of FIFA 21 ICON cards and would be a challenge for any FIFA fan to face. However, not every professional footballer has an impressive FUT squad as seen in the case of Blackburn\u2019s Joe Rankin-Costello. Joe Rankin-Costello\u2019s FIFA 21 Ultimate Team revealed Rankin-Costello\u2019s FIFA 21 Ultimate Team was posted to Reddit by ya_nan_ after he went up against the Blackburn midfielder online. It\u2019s fair to say his squad is less impressive than the other professional footballers we\u2019ve covered, but it certainly holds its own. GK: Alisson \u2013 90 – RB: Wan-Bissaka \u2013 83 – LB: Sandro \u2013 85 – CB: Gosens \u2013 85 – CB: Gomez \u2013 83 – CM: Chiellini \u2013 89 – CM: Rankin-Costello \u2013 99 – CM: Rivaldo \u2013 87 – RF: Beckham \u2013 86 – LF: Dembele \u2013 83 – ST: Hernandez \u2013 85 – With the likes of Beckham, Hernandez, and Rivaldo in his team, Rankin-Costello\u2019s squad is nothing to be scoffed at. On top of this, he\u2019s got a solid backline that any FIFA player would struggle to penetrate, especially with Liverpool\u2019s Alisson in goal. However, there\u2019s no denying his squad\u2019s a little underwhelming, and a few FIFA players have voiced their opinion on his selection in the thread. One commented that \u201che can still get the 3 Icons from EA surely.\u201d This is no doubt referencing the lack of ICONS in Rankin-Costello\u2019s squad compared to most FIFA players. Another Reddit user even made a joke at Blackburn\u2019s expense and the quality of Rankin-Costello\u2019s squad: \u201cYou can tell he\u2019s on championship wages\u201d. All jokes aside, Rankin-Costello\u2019s team is nothing special, but not every professional footballer has a stacked FUT squad. Who knows, in a few month\u2019s time, he may have made some serious upgrades to his team. Then, we\u2019ll have to compare him to the likes of Haaland and Mount to see how he shapes up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
