Review of Silver IF / Special players
Confession: I really love the Silver Lounge. it's something i look forward to every week
I wanted to share reviews of players i use. You are encouraged to share your reviews as well.
I am now doing the Silver Sensation Milestone and hope you find this thread useful
I generally play a 442 as it's easiest to match chemistry here
Best triangle COINS can buy:
This is the bomb guys, for those that got them cheap - good on you
for those that had to pay 30K because they are extinct - you are getting your coins worth
Malone is decent upfront, Dressel is like your silver Kimmich or Goretza and they offer chemistry links to Andrich or Adeyemi
great striker and fast, links well with Germans. I even play him in the Weekend League. Has scored more than 200 goals for me
one of my favourite so far, he came free and bosses the middle or the back. Strong physique as well. Also German, he links well with current offering available. Recommended with shadow chemistry
To me, the best player available in Silver. Fast, Bundesliga link and sure to get you assists or goals. I also use him in the Weekend League. My gem. I hope they reboot him for those that didn't complete the objective earlier
Kean was actually my first Silver IF player i got. Best decision ever. He scores goals, good with feet and head. A very balanced striker. Fits your Ligue 1 team like a glove
Torregrossa actually comes in ST position, but i changed him to CM so he can link with Kean and Romero. If you play him ST, he's quite similar to Kean and will fit your Serie A team as well. Go Sampdoria!
Another Serie A link. He works well with shadow chemistry. Rock solid and won't lose a foot in your silver squad
Arguably best kept secret of the silver league. This guy can play RB, RM, CB, he's fast and a must for every team. Did you also complete the Milestone MLS? Long and LIma can now link up with Opara for a solid back 4. Perfect link with Recordbreaker Vela too. This guy is so good, he features in my Weekend League squad as well for defensive cover
Alright for me. Don't play the Saudi league much but he can also be good links to Brazilians. Pacey and good with both feet
I will try to update this weekly for every new Special or IF Silver player, you are free to share your views too

Just did this. Havent had a chance to use him. Useful premier league link and also there's another Iranian featured in this week TOTW 18 so another soft link
I'm currently rocking this side https://ea.com/fifa/ultimate-team/web-app/?showoffId=h88fpXjLcR4w:FFA21XBO ingame playing 4231 with Adeyemi up top and Malone central of the 3. Going to try and find a way to fit Torregrossa, Kean & Romero in now.
Andrich will cover his rear bro
Mmmh, I have a little different take from the players, but I have all the Silver stars to chose from. I can confirm some like Adeyemi and Andrich, but ...
See the Team here!
The best players, far ahead of all others for me, are Che Adams, Vydra and Adeyemi. Followed by Stoppelkamp on the right and Mhuktar on the left. Vydra is probably the best midfielder I played from all players in my club and Adams the most dangerous scorer up front.
Wes Morgan is my center defense boss. He is good, but nothing special really. I would play Romero as well, but Chemistry does not allow. Same reason why I don't start with Damm in the first 11, but I also have Sambia who would probably be the better RB for the starting 11 if not for the chemistry as well. Damm is better and more flexible as a sub though, so he is on the bench instead of Sambia.
Wamangituka just does not work for me, but I am not a skiller. He cannot score anything as a RM with his 2* weak foot and his passing is sub-par. Stoppelkamp and now Jahanbakhsh are far ahead of him, so he isn't even on the bench for me any longer. I played standard silver Helder Costa for chemistry over Stoppelkamp, but now Jahanbakhsh will start. I also have Okafor who is a good RM, but even less noticeable then Wamangituka, third choice so to say.
For me Torregrossa is probably better suited as a midfielder, same as Moise Kean who is a sub for midfield on the bench. Played a few games and never was close to Adeyemi or Adams. He again does not fit my Chemistry and Akinfenwa is just the machine as a sub, the ice breaker crushing through any defense, banging screamers from everywhere!
Last but not least, Romarinho. I usually sub him in as CAM for Mhuktar when switching to a 4-2-2-2. Good one, but not oustanding.
Nice review bro. I missed out on Adams and Vydra and Adeyemi RM squad mate unfortunately
Thanks. It's really sad for you that you missed Che Adams and Vydra the are, as they are the GOATs of Silver Stars. Mhuktar is also very handy. Maybe they will re-release them at one point, I hope for those who missed them.
I was just jumping on the Silver Stars when they started as it gave me the chance to play with my Hometeam Erzgebirge Aue. There are still some players left and I hope for a Silver Star GK Martin Männel. He is the legend of the club and the top 3 GK of the 2nd Bundesliga with his match score. Maybe a Record Breaker would be in range with his 290 overall games played for Aue and in the 2nd Bundesliga. Männel for Silver Star, let it fly EA!
9 games to play for finishing the Silver Star objective and I really hope they set up a new long-term objective like this. 5 games left to win for finishing 300 FUT-Live-Friendlies. These packs might come in handy when TOTY is in packs completely.
i missed doing that Frenchie RB too
missed exactly the same guys you missed out on
all we need is a 7 ST formation actually once that is rebooted
Yeah a little more position variety wouldn't go amiss, there was a chance we could have got a german LWB (Agu from Werder Bremen possibly?) he made his first full start, kept a clean sheet, got a goal and MOM in some reports but instead I think we got Torregrossa who scored 1 goal
Haha I did guess that when I took a look at your squad! Looks a really nice team to play with, I wish I had completed the Mhuktar card as he is always a menace when I come up against him
Hoping for more options on the pitch. Even a goalie
Yeah. Muktar and I’d play Damm at LB behind him
So far has not been very positive for me
I got lucky, I guess, in packing Bundes CBs St. Juste and Ndicka early and they have been the rocks at the back for my Silver teams all season. If you can pick up St. Juste in particular, I'd highly recommend him.
My line-up is 4-1-2-1-2 with Vydra and Adams at St, Muhkhtar at LM, Adeyemi at CAM, Stoppelkamp at RM and now Andrich at CDM. I had also packed Dressel IF and he played CDM until Andrich came along for a nice German diamond in the mid-field. Now Andrich completes the diamond and provides a Bundesliga link to the two CB's. Sambia plays off position at LB but with Ndicka at LCB for chem and is still very good defensively, Wamangituka plays at RB for me, and not a great defender, his speed and size make up for it. Gets me 87 Chem to start.
I have two 'sleeper' stars that I bring off the bench. Ihlas Bebou from Hoffenheim is a deadly striker who started for me early but comes off the bench so I can start 7 IFs. The other is Camilo Mayada from the Mexican league. He is a CDM with 91 pace that is great late game sub to shore up the defense.
Seems different players work different for peoples ways of play. I always set my LM/RM to free roam in a 4-4-2, maybe that's the reason. As said I cannot feel Wamangituka on the field, he just seems to be not there, anywhere. I can't skill, so Wama is basically useless with his 5* SM, but even more useless with a 2* WF. Ooh the chances I've missed with him.
Actually so. I now sub him in if I need that extra burst last in game
He leads my line every outing in Silver Lounge, although recently I've taken to changing things up at half time from a 4231 with him up top to a 433(4), subbing on Torregrossa as a Target Man and shifting Wamangituka out to the right.
Just one example of this filthy man.
I use Maestro on him to get his reactions as high as possible. Low reactions for me is what makes silver players feel like.. silver players. Very excited to try out this Jahanbakhsh card soon for that reason, I believe he has 90 reactions!
He didn't actually even tho that made the game 5-2. Fair play to him!
