The FC 24 release date is nearly here, with people already getting on FUT with FC 24 early access or via the FC 24 Web App and Companion App. Check out our guide to the best meta players for every position in FC 24 Ultimate Team. What is a Meta Rating in FC 24?

We have teamed up with Easy SBC to bring you the best Ultimate Team players, based on a Meta Rating. You may notice that some of these lists contain players who are out of position and who may not be able to start in the position we’ve listed. “A tall player with quick reactions, good positioning, and a strong presence in the box.”

The Meta Rating has been created to show how good cards perform in-game, rather than judging them on their overall rating. This is determined by looking at key stats for positions and the player role, then scored from 1 to 99.9. Preferred chemistry styles are also shown to achieve the Meta Rating.

Remember, this is all based on the Meta Rating algorithm assessing the numbers behind the card. Switching formation in-game is the best way to get these cards on full chemistry while also occupying unfamiliar positions. We have split the positions into two lists, one of regular players and the other of Icons and FUT Heroes.

It’s the usual suspects featuring as the best meta goalkeepers in FC 24, with players representing the five top leagues. Each of them has a Meta Rating that outperforms their actual overall, which is why they all come at a premium price in FUT 24. Here are the best meta Icon and FUT Hero defensive left-backs:

“A quick defensive player that can stop the opposing wingers and also cheap FC 24 Coins  contribute with good passes going forward.” After a huge ratings upgrade, Federico Valverde has become perhaps the most-meta player in FUT 24. A total all-rounder, this isn’t the only list you will see him popping up on out-of-position.

Real Madrid is home to most of the best meta left-backs in FC 24, although the man at the top of the list may take you by surprise. “A quick player that has both offensive and defensive abilities and needs high stamina for running up and down the line for the entire game.”
