The Best FIFA 18 World Cup Squad

Introduction to the FIFA 18 World Cup update
 

The FIFA 18 World Cup is a new separate game mode within FUT that gives you the chance to build your dream international squad in the FIFA Ultimate Team World Cup experience.

We believe that most of the players will feel lost when they start building their teams. First, because they will not be able to buy the players they want on the transfer market. It doesn’t exist. Secondly, because the card weight will be more favourable to pack players from less popular nations.

Besides that, the chemistry doesn’t work exactly the same way as it does in the regular FUT. Basically, the club is replaced by the nationality and the league it’s replaced by the confederation. In other words, players from the same country get a perfect link, while players from the same federation but different nation get a weak link. Since it is extremely hard to build a squad with all players from a single nation, even more if we are trying to build a squad based in a strong and popular nation, the best option is to base our squad in a single confederation. Our suggestion is exactly that: focus in a single confederation, open the player’s packs of that federation and follow the recommendations we make on this page.

This guide will help you to know what is the best CONCACAF confederation squad for FIFA 18 World Cup. As you probably know, the players in World Cup will have refreshed ratings and stats on this game mode. Their items are built to match real-world performance and will be updated based on the performances of players who stood out on matchday, with upgraded stats, ensuring a fresh and relevant experience for the entire tournament. Keep in mind, that our choices are based only on the starting World Cup ratings, and not on eventual upgrades.

 
 

The Best CONCACAF Confederation Squad

The best players from the Confederation of North, Central American and Caribbean Association Football
 

The team that we will suggest, should serve merely as orientation because it’s impossible to build a team that fits everyone. They depend on various factors we don’t know such as budget to buy packs, formation, style of play and player preferences. It is also important to take into consideration the players you think have more chances to be upgraded.

?? MEXICO
Manager Juan Carlos Osorio leads a Mexican side that has never advanced past the round of 16 at a World Cup hosted outside Mexico. Will this year be different? Mexico placed first in CONCACAF qualifying after a strong campaign, giving them the momentum and belief that they can do just about anything. Carlos Vela, Andrés Guardado, and Hirving Lozano highlight a talented Mexico squad hoping to make history in Russia.
