In Season 3, FIFA 21 Ultimate Team players had several featured silver challenges and FUT gamers should expect more silver and bronze challenges in the future. Most FUT clubs do not have a silver squad to complete the various season and milestone objectives. For casual players, it can be difficult to put together a competent silver squad because of the high demand during seasonal objectives.

Players should invest in competent lower-ranked players now to avoid having to pay hundreds of thousands of coins for a silver team. Once a silver challenge is complete, players can sell the silver squad while demand is high and re-purchase the players after the challenges have expired. Unfortunately, there are dozens of silver players that are amazing cards that could not be included in this list due to chemistry concerns. However, as a whole, the cards in this article can compete with gold players. Below is the best silver squad to use when completing silver challenges in FIFA 21.

Updated on September 9, 2021 by Payton Lott: With FIFA 21 winding down, players will only have a few weeks to complete their silver challenges and SBCs. In addition to the starting eleven, this updated guide includes three silver substitute cards to complete the team. Players never know when a starter will go down due to injury.

It is also common for silvers to struggle with stamina in the second half. Clubs will want to add those three subs to their team to close out matches in the final 45. The full roster below is one of the best silver teams in FIFA 21.

Attackers: Limbombe, Raman, Lookman

Fifa Silver Attackers

Silver players can outperform gold cards, as long as they have pace, dribbling, and agility. All three attackers in this squad have above 80 pace and 80 agility. Many FUT clubs focus solely on the base card stats when looking at player cards. However, agility and balance are the most noticeable dribbling statistics in-game. Agility allows the player card to change direction quickly, and balance makes the player better at bouncing off of challenges.

Raman's 82 pace feels much faster in-game due to the card's 89 acceleration. All three players are very good silver cards in-game that provide links to solid midfielders. Unfortunately, Raman and Lookman only have three-star skills, making them slightly less dynamic than other players. FUT gamers that like to skill can try to incorporate players like Junio, Junior, Ademilson, Guilherme, and Rhayner instead. The skillful Brazilians had to be excluded to ensure every player in the team has 10 chemistry. FUT clubs can pick up the above cards and sub them in to make the team even better.

Midfielders: Bastien, Mangala, Zuber

Fifa Silver Midfielders

While the attackers in this team are good, the midfielders are even better. The most important stats for silver midfielders are pace and passing. The silver cards need to be able to keep up with opposing players and make pin-point passes to attackers. All three of the cards in this team are incredibly balanced, with pace, passing, and dribbling in the 70s.

Zuber is the star of the three midfielders with all base stats above 71. The Swiss center midfielder is one of the best silver cards in the game, and clubs will be impressed with the card in competitive matches. Midfielders need to be multifaceted players in Ultimate Team, and the three cards in this silver team will get the job done.

Defenders: Mohammadi, Luckassen, Juste, Maffeo

Fifa Silver Defenders

There are trade-offs with using silver cards in Ultimate Team. With silver defenders, the stat players often have to overlook is defending. While low defending can indicate the ability of the card to win possession, base stats do not always tell the full story in-game. The most important defending stats for silver defenders are interceptions and standing tackle. In FUT, sliding tackles are a risky tactic, and most cards will not have to perform a slide in a match. FUT clubs need silver players that have pace and physical attributes. Most of the other defending stats can be covered up by the skill of the FIFA player.

The silver defenders in this team have the pace, physical, and defending attributes to frustrate even the best attackers. The fullbacks in the team, Mohammadi and Maffeo, have more than 85 pace and both have 73 dribbling. Maffeo has defending stats in the 70s and Mohammadi has 71 physical. The most dominant players in the team are the center backs, however, as both player cards are fast and strong. Luckassen is a rock in the back third with 76 pace and 77 physical. Likewise, Juste is one of the top silver defenders in FUT with 85 pace, 73 dribbling, 75 defending, and 73 physical. Each of the players in defense has the stats of a gold card.

While the card may be too high of a rating for the silver team, Juste's card had to at least be mentioned. The special version of the player will cost more than 300k coins to get via the squad building challenge. People that have the time and coins will not be disappointed with the card. The stats below speak for themselves:

  • 88 Pace
  • 70 Shooting
  • 78 Passing
  • 85 Dribbling
  • 86 Defending
  • 84 Physical
  • 5* Skills

Goalkeeper: Pasveer

Pasveer Fifa

The final player in the silver challenge squad is Pasveer. The Dutch Goalkeeper has all of the important keeping stats in the 70s, and clubs can boost his diving, reflexes, or positioning with the appropriate chemistry style card. While Pasveer is not the most overpowered silver goalkeeper, he is the best option for chemistry purposes. With 416 total base stats, Pasveer is the best Dutch silver keeper in Ultimate Team.

TOTS Pasveer

Pasveer's play last season warranted a +12 upgrade to an 85 rated card. At this point in FUT, most clubs will have the 30k coins to try the card out. Unfortunately, he will no longer be eligible for the silver challenges. Still, anyone searching for a Dutch keeper should look no further.

Reserves

Joseph Aidoo

To round out the team, clubs will want to have at least one reserve in attack, midfield, and defense. The sections below will cover three overpowered silvers that are perfect for the bench role.

Attack: Silas Katompa Mvumpa

This hidden silver gem has 89 pace and five star skills. That alone makes the card extraordinarily dangerous against silver defenders. The card's 71 finishing is quite bad, but the player will finish more chances than expected. Mvumpa's speed and fun factor make him a top choice for a substitute.

Midfield: Oscar Dorley

Dorley has 86 pace, 88 agility, and 85 balance as a CDM. With double 4 star attributes and passing in the 70s, Dorley is one of the best silver cards in FIFA 21. He can be pushed off the ball from time to time, but the card has better ball control than almost any other silver. Clubs will want Dorley if they plan to create the best silver squad in FIFA 21.

Defense: Joseph Aidoo

By looking at his stats, it is apparent Aidoo is a silver anomaly. The card boasts 75 pace with 87 physical and 73 defending. These stats are unheard of for a silver card. In fact, they are better than gold cards on average. Aidoo will be the brick wall at the back that clubs need to secure a victory.
