EA Sports has officially revealed the FC 26 Team of the Week (TOTW) 3 squad, and to the dismay of many fans, it’s being labeled as the weakest release of the promo so far. After back-to-back strong TOTW lineups to start the new season, TOTW 3 feels like a major step backward — introducing several underwhelming cards while leaving out many high-performing stars that fans expected to see.

A Disappointing TOTW Return

After the promising start from the first two TOTWs, many in the FC 26 Ultimate Team community expected this week to continue the momentum with major names like Lionel Messi and Harry Kane, both of whom delivered top performances in recent matches. Unfortunately, EA Sports decided to take a different route, reverting to the inconsistent selection patterns that have frustrated players in previous years.

This week’s lineup lacks star power. The headline players are Rose Lavelle (88 OVR) and Georgia Stanway (86 OVR) — two quality midfielders who certainly earned their places, but beyond them, the squad feels uninspired. Many fans believe this TOTW will have little to no impact on the transfer market or competitive squads.

Final Thoughts

TOTW 3 in FC 26 represents a return to mediocrity for a promo that was gaining momentum. With EA Sports seemingly opting for safer, less impactful selections, many in the community are voicing frustration. Unless you’re a collector or someone building a theme team, this TOTW doesn’t offer much to get excited about.

Still, cards like Lavelle and Stanway may hold value for competitive players looking for versatility and strong PlayStyles in the midfield — but otherwise, expect most of these cards to serve as SBC material.
