Ultimate Team: what a loaded title.
FIFA’s most popular game mode pulls people in by leading with an abstract word. What does ultimate mean? Well, it could mean anything you want.
Oddly enough, two words seldom associated with the current edition of Liverpool Football Club are “ultimate team”.
There aren’t many advantages in being an underachieving side but for Liverpool, they have useful players around the pitch yet can’t seem to beat West Ham, Norwich City nor Carlisle United (inside 120 minutes) at Anfield.
These useful players performing uselessly in real life shall be remedied as pawns digitised to beckon to your footballing wishes provided you can pound in the optimal sequence of buttons culminating in a beautiful poetry of (virtual) motion.
Or, more simply, make goals with Liverpool players on a video game because real life Liverpool are too grim and hopeless to achieve.
Yeah, I like the second try better.
Liverpool have a number of interesting pieces that could contribute to a successful Ultimate Team. The list doesn’t take into consideration prices for the players, as they’re all attainable, albeit some more so than others.
As usual, Steven Gerrard is the gold standard of this list and…
Oh wait. Ste Gerrard doesn’t kick footballs in a Liverpool shirt anymore.
:(
