Other Positions:
In EA Sports FC Mobile 26, the striker (ST) position is one of the most important roles in any lineup. The better your striker performs, the easier it becomes to convert chances into goals and win matches.
Several key attributes influence a striker’s gameplay, including Dribbling, Pace, Ball Control, Finishing, Shot Power, and Long Shot.
Dribbling is especially useful in one-on-one situations. A striker with high Dribbling and strong Pace can easily beat defenders and create space for a clean finish. Finishing determines how clinical your striker is inside the box, while Shot Power affects how quickly and forcefully the ball hits the net. Long Shot, on the other hand, measures accuracy from outside the penalty area, which can be useful against tight defenses.
Another crucial factor is Weak Foot. Strikers with a 5★ or 4★ Weak Foot are far more reliable when shooting from both sides, making them harder to predict and defend.
This isn’t part of the current meta since crossing and heading have been heavily nerfed. However, if you still prefer a crossing or aerial playstyle, pay attention to Heading, Jumping, and the striker’s height. When paired with the Power Header trait, these attributes can still make your striker a real threat in the air and capable of scoring from well-timed crosses.
Ultimately, the best striker for your team depends on how you play, whether you prefer fast counterattacks, possession build-up, or a crossing strategy. Pick one that fits your system, and you’ll notice an instant improvement in your attack.

Best LM – Top 10 Left-Midfielders Ranked
I have the top 3 guys, imo after using them in game I give the slight nod to R9 after they gave his traits back. The main reason I say this is the 5 star skill and he is noticeably stronger. Raul is superb, so much so I put him at LW and didnt get Vini but he he gets pushed around at striker. Torres only and i mean only weakness is R9 shot feels more reliable and doesnt have 5 star skill. R9 does feel a touch slow at times, but rarely gets caught for me and can flat out bully defenders lol. IMO if you have Torres, dont chase the other 2 unless you pull the cards for Raul or pull R9. None of them are perfect, R9 should get a buff in game for the speed issue at times.
In my opinion, R9 only needs Poacher or False 9 to become the top of the list. For now, each card has its own strengths and weaknesses, so it really depends on the user’s preferred playstyle.
No question lol gameplay is so bad half the time it is hard to really tell tbh with you. I start R9 then use Torres in the 2nd half, mainly because most people lack skill and think defense means im going to just run into your players. The refs never call it either because of tilt or simply the game being trash. So I use R9 early because he just kind of bounces off defenders lol. Raul is very good, but was getting just bullied too often and wasnt getting called, i moved him out wide hes prob my fav card of this promo or Gerrard.
Thanks for the review. I’m getting Raul this week, and I might try him as a LW too. Gerrard and Raul are two of the best cards in this promo, especially for f2p players.
Just IMO the best R9 in game was the Hall of Legends card. TOTS was solid, but that Hall of Legends was unstoppable at times great card.
Please update the cheap beasts lists broo.
also, just wanted to say that this game is great at rating people in general, i would simply like a better pele card, because unless you bought the starpass for 2nd anniversary, the best pele you can get is a 109. thank you for reading this and please answer. i know that it most likly cant happen soon and i’m not even sure how you rate players, but pele realy should be a 113+. thanks!
I’m certain they would bring him in Brazil Nation’s story
Im using cryuff as my striker. What will be his ranking if he is there in this list
Top 3
hey i dont know who is in charge of these things but i just wanted to make a petition for a new pele card preferably 113 ovr . here is my reason, on his first world cup he brought the brazilian team from embarassing to outstanding leading them to the world cup, something that no other player of his time could do. he was coming from an impoverished background, and yet proved himself better than the greatest players of his time, he wasn’t just an icon, he was a legend, and he deserves better. so if you could at least think on it, i would be much appreciative. thank you.
How good is the new cantona card
He’s strong, great on the ball, and has good finishing. The only real downside is his pace. And sadly, pace is very important for strikers in the current gameplay. If you don’t rely on pace and you play a more hold-up or physical style, he’s still a great option.
But he can still be great for me
108 rated marmoush (from Inferno vs Aqua) is good.
I played with that 108 rated aqua marmoush (maxed ranked) and he still playes sooo well. Sooo fast and smooth finishing 🤩🤩🤩 just get his maxed ranked card and see how good he is🔥
Lw ve rw oyuncularım cok kötü vana o ikisi için güzel bir oyuncular verebilirmisiniz
