FC 27 Squad Builder

How the squad builder works

Pick one of EA's 30 formations, press a place on the pitch and search every FC 27 Ultimate Team card. Your squad's rating, chemistry and price update as you build. Nothing is bought: it is a free planner, and your squad is saved in this browser. Press Share to get a link to it.

Chemistry

A player gets chemistry when he stands in a position he can play. Players in position from the same club give a point at 2, 4 and 7 players; from the same nation at 2, 5 and 8; from the same league at 3, 5 and 8. A player has at most 3 points and a squad at most 33. An Icon, Hero or Hall of FUT player in position always has 3 points; Heroes and Hall cards do not count for clubs, and Icons count towards every league in your squad. Your manager counts as one more player of their league and their nation, so a matching manager can lift players to the next chemistry level but never adds a point on their own: one Spaniard with a Spanish manager counts as two of Spain. Some promo cards and men's/women's affiliated-club links have extra rules in the game that the builder does not count yet, so check those in FC 27.

Rating

The squad rating is worked out the way EA does it: the eleven ratings are added, every rating above the squad's average counts a little extra, and the total is divided by eleven. EA can use either of two rounding rules, so the builder shows both possible ratings if they differ.

Prices

Each card shows its lowest price on the market you pick: PlayStation and Xbox share one transfer market, and PC has its own. A price marked ~ comes from the market list and is refreshed when you open the card's own page, and a squad price with any such card is marked ~ too.
