Top West Ham Players in FC26

Wondering whether the Hammers can boost your roster? Check out the strengths and weaknesses of the top-rated West Ham United players in EA FC26.

Jarrod Bowen

Bowen shines in West Ham United, significantly outperforming his teammates in the overall EA FC26 rank. The 29-year-old English star plays well as a right midfielder, although he can also help the Hammers succeed at the striker position. Bowen is highly rated for his dribbling and shooting power, as well as good passing accuracy. However, do not expect him to show great results when it comes to interceptions and sliding tackles. On top of everything else, Jarrod Bowen has the Gamechanger, Low Driven Shot, Precision Header, and Technical abilities, which puts him in the same list as such FC26 stars as Mohamed Salah, Kylian Mbappé, and Erling Haaland.

Lucas Paquetá

Lucas Paquetá has the same FC26 rating as Aaron Wan-Bissaka but surpasses his teammate in shooting, passing, dribbling, and physicality. To say more, his physicality, defensive, and dribbling skills are even better than those of Jarrod Bowen. The Brazilian is pretty versatile, and it’s hard to say that he has some obvious weaknesses, even though his sliding tackle and sprint speed still are not perfect. Paquetá’s abilities include Ariel Fortless, First Touch, Long Ball Pass, and Technical.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Aaron Wan-Bissaka is one of the best West Ham defenders so far. In addition, the 28-year-old Congolese can play as the right midfielder due to his excellent pace and physicality, alongside strong defending and dribbling skills. However, Wan-Bissaka does not shine when it comes to shooting, especially long shots, volleys, penalties, and finishing. So, take this into account when including him in your team. Aaron also has Slide Tackle+, Anticipate, Block, Intercept, and Rapid abilities. Notably, only six FC26 players possess Slide Tackle+, including Moisés Caicedo from Chelsea and Piero Hincapié from Arsenal.

Niclas Füllkrug

Niclas Füllkrug received a good EA FC26 rating due to his outstanding shooting skills and strong physicality. Indeed, Füllkrug’s shot power, reactions, and positioning make him a serious threat to the rivals. The German also has rather poor defending skills, which is common for strikers. On the other hand, his sprint speed and acceleration are not so good either. Similar to Jarrod Bowen, Niclas Füllkrug has the Precision Header ability and shines when there’s a need to perform headers with increased power and accuracy.

Tomáš Souček

As a center defensive midfielder, Tomáš Souček is good at interceptions, tackles, headers, and defensive awareness. With a height of 192 cm, he also boasts great physicality. Speaking about weaknesses, the 30-year-old Czech does not perform so well when it comes to acceleration, sprint speed, agility, and balance. However, his reactions, ball control, and passes are still at a high level. On top of everything else, Souček has the Aerial Fortress and Precision Header abilities, which allow him to win many aerial duels.
