Best Clubs builds for Midfielders
The addition of Archetypes has altered the way people manage their players in EA FC 26‘s Clubs mode, making it more challenging than ever to strike the perfect balance between stats and team synergy.
With so many stats, perks, and playstles to consider, it can be a nightmare creating the perfect build, so we’ve done the work for you, and here are some of the best builds for Midfielders in Clubs.
Recyler build
POSITION | ARCHETYPE | HEIGHT | WEIGHT | PLAYSTYLES | PLAYSTYLES+ | SPECIALIZATION |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
CDM | Recycler | 6'0" | 171 - 181 lbs | - Long Ball Pass - Anticipate - Pinged Pass | - Press Proven+ - Intercept+ | Thief |
CDM players have to pressure opponents when they have the ball to force them to lose it. They also have to be able to read plays to cut through them, intercept passes, and retrieve the ball.
Because this is a more defensive position, the attributes to work on include Interceptions, Defensive Awareness, Standing Tackle, Strength, Balance, Reactions, Stamina, and Acceleration – in that order.
Creator build
POSITION | ARCHETYPE | HEIGHT | WEIGHT | PLAYSTYLES | PLAYSTYLES+ | SPECIALIZATION |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
CAM | Creator | 5'10" | 159 lbs | - Pinged Pass - First Touch - Press Proven | - Incisive Pass+ - Inventive+ | Creator+ |
An extraordinary CAM has to be the most versatile player on a team, as its role includes scoring, creating opportunities, dribbling, and even defending (when needed).
Because of its many roles, there are several attributes you can improve to make your CAM unstoppable. Start with Short Passing, Long Passing, Ball Control, and Dribbling. Then you can go for some extra ones, such as Composure.
Even though Creator+ is the most balanced Specialization. However, if you drift wide and cross the ball constantly, you can swap it for Sniper.
Maestro build
POSITION | ARCHETYPE | HEIGHT | WEIGHT | PLAYSTYLES | PLAYSTYLES+ | SPECIALIZATION |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
CM / CAM | Maestro | 5’10″ | 165 lbs | - Pinged Pass - First Touch - Tiki Taka - Relentless | - Pinged Pass+ - First Touch+ - Tiki Taka+ | Maestro+ |
The Maestro Archetype makes your Midfielder the hub of the pitch, with vision, passing power, and incredible ball control. This player is the orchestrator of the game.
To round up its power, you must improve Short and Long Passing, Vision, Ball Control, and Dribbling. When going deeper into its stats, you can work on building up its Stamina, Composure, and Interceptions.
Spark build
POSITION | ARCHETYPE | HEIGHT | WEIGHT | PLAYSTYLES | PLAYSTYLES+ | SPECIALIZATION |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
CAM | Spark | 5’8″ | 161 lbs | - Technical - Incisive Pass - Gamechanger - Inventive | - Inventive+ Pass+ - Rapid+ - Trickster+ | Spark+ |
This build is made for an explosive CAM, an advanced playmaker with a lot of creativity, flair, and sharp attacking moves that can get past tight spaces.
There are a few attributes to prioritize when building this Midfielder, starting with Acceleration, Agility, and Balance. Once it’s physically unstoppable, you can improve Short Pass, Vision, Curve, Ball Control, and Finishing.
