How we rank Players
Meta Score rates a card in a specific role rather than overall. It weighs the attributes that role needs, PlayStyles and PlayStyles+, AcceleRATE, skill moves, weak foot, height and Role+ / Role++, and tests every chemistry style at full chemistry to find the best one. OVR only averages attributes, so a lower-rated card often plays better in the right role.
Only cards on the console Transfer Market for 25K coins or less are included. Switch to PC above the ranking to rebuild the list from PC prices.

FAQ
Who are the best Players under 25K coins?
By Meta Score, the top three are Chawinga (89.1), Doku (88.8) and James (88.7).
What is the cheapest option among the top 10 Players?
Barella costs about 6.7k coins and has a Meta Score of 87.3, 1.8 points behind the best.
Which chemistry style is best for Players?
Hunter is the best chemistry style for 5 of the top 10. The best style depends on the card, so every row in the ranking shows the one that gets the most out of it.
Why isn't this list sorted by OVR?
OVR averages attributes and ignores PlayStyles, AcceleRATE, skill moves, weak foot and height. Meta Score weighs what the role needs, which is why Doku (OVR 84) reaches a Meta Score of 88.8.
How often is this list updated?
Prices refresh throughout the day and the ranking is rebuilt at least every 30 minutes. A card's Meta Score changes when the card is upgraded or the scoring is retuned.
Are these console or PC prices?
Console prices by default. Switch to PC above the ranking to see PC prices; on budget pages the list is also rebuilt from PC prices.
