As FIFA announce FIFA Street cover star Lionel Messi as winner of the Ballon D’or 2011, EA SPORTS announce the improved ratings of the goalkeeper and defenders from this year’s Ultimate Team of the Year for FIFA 12.

(You can find May’s Blue FIFA 12 TOTY – Most Consistent But Never IF and you can now check out the Team Of The Year English League)

IF Ramos and VidicThese are this years must have In Form players and if you’re lucky enough to find one in a pack you can expect them to fetch mega bucks on the transfer market.

The Ultimate Team of the Year is being released in stages so we’re going to have to wait for the midfielders and attackers statistics and with Robin Van Persie and Neymar both having great years we’re really keen to see who makes EA SPORTS’ TOTY substitute list.

We will update this post as soon as the midfielder and attacker’s In Form ratings are released.

The Ultimate Team of the Year goalkeeper and defenders are available in packs on console or through the Ultimate Team Web App NOW until Saturday 14th January at 6pm GMT.

Good Luck!!!

TOTY 2011 Substitutes

It’s been confirmed that there’ll be no substitutes in this year’s Team of the Year which is a shame.  It’s always nice to get a few wild cards thrown in.  I haven’t ruled out an IF Heskey before the Summer though!

Previous team’s of the year include the English Leagues (Barclays Premiership) TOTY, Most Consistent But Never In Form TOTY and the Northern European TOTY.

Do you agree with the 2011 Ultimate Team of the Week?  Who would have made your team?

[EDIT: TOTY Defenders are in packs now until 6pm GMT today (11th Jan) then the midfielders are out.  Make sure you check back for their stats!]

[EDIT 2: TOTY Midfielders are in packs now!]

[EDIT 3: TOTY Attackers will hit packs at 6pm GMT tonight! (13th Jan)]

[EDIT 4: TOTY Attackers are in packs NOW until Saturday 14th Jan 6pm GMT]

    No IF Heskey? What a joke! :)

    • Craig Cole January 11, 2012 at 7:11 pm

      He might be in the subs :D

  2. Bret miller January 11, 2012 at 7:59 pm

    Will the subs come out after the forwards?

    • Craig Cole January 11, 2012 at 8:09 pm

      I presume so… I’m guessing Forwards on Friday and subs on Sunday.

      • lewispegrum January 12, 2012 at 7:42 pm

        you know what time ??

  3. Brandon H January 12, 2012 at 7:04 am

    So that’s cool, I forgot that there were only two teams in the world and then Rooney/Vidic. FIFA is definitely riding on the Big spanish two bandwagon a little too hard…

    • Craig Cole January 12, 2012 at 12:08 pm

      I thought that aswell – have Barcelona and Real Madrid really that been that much better than everyone else?

      If you look at the players that were shortlisted there’s even more that were in contention…

      Éric Abidal (France), Sergio Agüero (Argentina), Karim Benzema (France), Iker Casillas (Spain), Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal), Dani Alves (Brazil), Samuel Eto’o (Cameroon), Cesc Fàbregas (Spain), Diego Forlán (Uruguay), Andrés Iniesta (Spain), Lionel Messi (Argentina), Thomas Müller (Germany), Nani (Portugal), Neymar (Brazil), Mesut Özil (Germany), Gerard Piqué (Spain), Wayne Rooney (England), Bastian Schweinsteiger (Germany), Wesley Sneijder (Netherlands), Luis Suárez (Uruguay), David Villa (Spain), Xabi Alonso (Spain), Xavi (Spain).

    What time do the attackers come out timoro ?

    • Craig Cole January 12, 2012 at 10:25 pm

      Midfielders were 6pm GMT so I assume strikers will be the same. Follow on Twitter for updates as soon as we hear. ;)

  5. luke January 13, 2012 at 1:03 pm

    • Craig Cole January 13, 2012 at 1:36 pm

  6. Friday the 13th January 13, 2012 at 1:38 pm

    Can you tell me exactly, when the forwards will be in packs?:D

    • Craig Cole January 13, 2012 at 1:52 pm

      6pm GMT tonight :)

  7. Ben! January 13, 2012 at 10:00 pm

    Which pack is it not sure which one too buy :S ?

    • Craig Cole January 13, 2012 at 10:34 pm

      They’re in all gold packs but obviously you’ve got more chance of getting them in all player packs (or the ones with the most players in).

  8. Nani the beast January 14, 2012 at 12:40 am

    Do you know when is the next happy hour?
    because otherwise packs are pretty useless

  9. Daryl Nobbs January 15, 2012 at 7:51 pm

    Basically… Only players from Man Utd, Barca & Madrid?
    Cause in my opinion i think Gareth Bale, Robin Van Persie, Demba Ba, David Silva and Manual Neuer should all make this list.

  10. Stolidshark January 25, 2012 at 2:48 am

    I have to say I cant believe RVP wasn’t in the list but if you want to see who voted for who take a look for yourselves…. http://www.fifa.com/mm/document/classic/awards/01/36/25/40/ballondor_award_men_player_finalx.pdf

    Interesting to seee Messi didnt vote for Ronaldo in his top 3 :-P
