FIFA 16 Team of the Week Predictions: Week 11

Post time 24/11/2015 05:50pm 24/11/2015 05:50pm by fifaRAWR | Predictions


Given EA decided to include international friendlies in last week's TOTW for no logical reason, 10/23 reason isn't that bad of a score! I'm sure we'll be hitting much higher numbers this week though

A Catalan masterclass

Is the only way that you can describe Saturday evening's El Clasico. I'm sure most of you are well aware of the events that unfolded in Madrid last weekend, but just incase you've been living under a rock for the past week, it was a stunning display of football. Witnessing the likes of Neymar, Luis Suarez and Andres Iniesta at the peak of their powers is something to behold; Barcelona's third goal was absolutely incredible. Any of the three aforementioned names could realistically make it into this week's team of the week, however I believe the man the Bernabeu gave a standing ovation to, Andres Iniesta, and two goal hero Luis Suarez will make the cut this week.

Goal-filled weekend

Of the 23 players included in my prediction this week, only two were involved in games in which three goals or less were scored. Martin Skrtel and Philippe Coutinho both found the net as Liverpool stunned Manchester City at the Etihad; Roberto Firmino (there's no "H", everyone...) was also outstanding and deserves some credit. Max Kruse was involved in half of Wolfsburg's six goals as they thumped Werder Bremen, whilst Sven Kums, Marlos and Florian Kainz all registered two goals and two assists in big wins over the weekend.
