3 hours ago 1

close

It is fun to build an Everton Past and Present squad in EA FC 26 Ultimate Team, especially if you enjoy mixing legends with the club’s current stars. Everton might not be fighting for trophies these days, but their history is full of many iconic players like Wayne Rooney and Samuel Eto’o who’ve worn their colors. Think of these names playing alongside today's stars like Jordan Pickford and Jarrad Branthwaite.

Even if you’re not an Everton supporter, I’d still say this squad is worth trying. It gives you a proper Premier League hybrid that works efficiently on the pitch and gives you power, creativity, along a touch of nostalgia.
