10 Players Who Should Receive a Flashback Card in FIFA 20 Ultimate Team
By Max Mallow
EA Sports released the first Flashback card Monday for FIFA 20 Ultimate Team with Everton's Theo Walcott getting the honor for his 2012/2013 season.
Flashback cards, first introduced in FIFA 19, were a popular addition to Squad Building Challenges. It allowed EA Sports to release special cards for players that might not receive one throughout a cycle. Popular cards like Flashback Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Dani Alves and Juanfran were affordable and strong choices for starting XI positions or as super subs.
Following Theo Walcott, here are 10 players who should receive Flashback cards in FIFA 20 Ultimate Team.
10 Players Who Should Receive a Flashback Card in FIFA 20 Ultimate Team
10. Radamel Falcao
Now at Galatasary, Radamel Falcao received a UEL Moments card last year. A Flashback this year would be a fun addition considering his new league.
9. Gianluigi Buffon
One of the greatest goalkeepers of all time, Buffon would make the perfect Flashback card for a GK this year. Iker Casillas received one last year, this year should be Buffon.
8. Jerome Boateng
Bayern Munich brought in new defensive pieces this past transfer window, but Boateng is a legend of the team. Flash him back at some point this year EA.
7. Gonzalo Higuain
The Argentinian striker followed Maurizio Sarri to Juventus after loan spells at AC Milan and Chelsea. Give him a Flashback to his 2016 season where he received eight special cards.
6. Harry Kane
Tottenham Hotspur might be in a downward spiral after losses to Bayern Munich and Brighton Hove & Albion, but Harry Kane is still the team's talisman and a world class striker. Give him a Flashback to his 2017 Team of the Year inclusion.
5. Mesut Ozil
Mesut Ozil seems to be finished at Arsenal, but the German midfielder was class in the past. He still has moments of brilliance when he plays. His last special card was a Scream card in FIFA 18, so why not give him a Flashback.
4. Alexis Sanchez
The former Arsenal, Barcelona and Manchester United winger is currently on loan at Inter Milan. He received a massive downgrade to 82 overall, so a Flashback would be an easy option for a Serie A player.
3. Diego Costa
Diego Costa returned to Atletico Madrid where he received a Team of the Season card in FIFA 15. He's currently 83 rated in FIFA 20.
2. James Rodriguez
The Colombian midfielder returned to Real Madrid after a two year spell at Bayern Munich. He's only 85 rated this year and would be a fun Flashback for his World Cup performance in 2014.
1. Cesc Fabregas
The Arsenal and Chelsea legend is currently at AS Monaco in Ligue 1. He'd be an ideal choice in the midfield for a Flashback card.
