EA Sports is back with another good Squad Battle Challenge (SBC) to help you strengthen your "FIFA 21" Ultimate Team. This time, it's Arjen Robben, a veteran winger playing for FC Groningen who's known for his cut-inside efficiency in front of the goalpost.
Now, you can relive the prime days of the left-footed Dutchman at Bayern Munich. Along with Thomas Muller and co, Robben won several titles, including Bundesliga, DFB Pokal, DFB and UEFA Supercup, and the glorious UEFA Champions League during the 2012/2013 campaign.
In July 2019, Robben announced his retirement from football after finishing the campaign with six goals in 19 appearances for Bayern. However, a year later, he signed for his boyhood club, FC Groningen, to help the team recover from the setbacks caused by the ongoing pandemic.
Arjen Robben Flashback Requirements
Luckily, you only need to submit one squad to obtain an Arjen Robben Flashback card. Below are the requirements for it.
- 1 player from the Netherlands
- 1 TOTW (Team of the Week) player
- 85 rated team
- 75 chemistry
- 11 players in the squad
The SBC started on January 1 and will end by January 15, so you still have some time to grind for coins if you don't have any. It approximately costs at least 130,000 to 150,000 FUT coins, but it could cost less if you have many SBC fodders.
- GK: 88 Handanovic (Inter)
- CB: 85 Godin, 84 De Vrij, 85 Skriniar (Inter)
- LM: 82 Perisic (Inter), CAM: 86 Gomez (Atalanta), CDM: 84 Lucas Leiva, RM: Otavio (Porto)
- GK: 84 Onana (Ajax), CF: 83 Tadic (Ajax), RM: 84 Corona (Porto)
Is This Card Worth It?
The short answer is yes.
Arjen Robben is a fantastic machine, both on and off the game. This card is a massive jump from Robben's base 80-rated gold card. Although the two-star weak foot seems to be a deal-breaker for some, this Flashback card is deadly when it comes to skill moves.
With excellent stamina (85), Robben Flashback can last 90 minutes on the field. Not to mention his explosive pace and thundering shooting power, which guaranteed can tear up any defensive line. With a towering height of 1,8 m (5 ft 11 in), Robben is a good threat when it comes to heading.
However, it's worth noting that he doesn't come from the most familiar league, making it challenging to link him. Memphis Depay, Georgino Wijnaldum, Luuk de Jong, and Quincy Promes are among Dutch talents linked to this card.
