Use My Players for the cards you can inspect
On the recorded home screen, DECK opens the collection area. Choose MY PLAYERS at the top to see cards with a separate match record beside each one. COLLECTION instead shows a grid containing card backs as well as revealed cards. Use the owned list when preparing a choice, and the collection grid when looking at collection progress.
The header reads UNLOCKED:20/330 in this recorded v.2026.06.06(po) account. That is a progress snapshot, not a promise that your account starts with twenty players or that every version has the same denominator.
Write down the identity you want to select
For each candidate, read the name at the bottom of the card and the country code at the upper right. Keep the adjacent club code separate. In the recorded list, OUSMANE D. shows FRA / PSG and Neymar shows BRA / OTH. Those country codes help locate the matching national selection later.
Both cards show played:0 in the owned-list frame. Their zero goals and wins therefore do not provide a performance comparison. You can choose one to try, but this record cannot establish that one is better. The printed 84 and 88 are card values, not a measured win-rate difference.
| Checklist item | Ousmane D. example | Neymar example |
|---|---|---|
| Name to match | OUSMANE D. | NEYMAR |
| Country / adjacent code | FRA / PSG | BRA / OTH |
| Printed card number | 84 | 88 |
| Played before this local match | 0 | 0 |
Take the shortlist to the actual selection screen
Return with the top-left arrow. For the demonstrated route, choose MULTIPLAYER → LOCAL. Set the left country to France and check Ousmane D. beneath it; set the right country to Brazil and check Neymar beneath it. The upper arrows belong to the country selection and the lower arrows belong to the card selection.
The match later identifies FRA – OUSMANE D. and NEYMAR – BRA on its HUD. That is the final identity check: a name on your list has become the selected footballer. A national code or familiar shirt alone is less precise than matching the displayed name.
- Choose a candidate from MY PLAYERS and note the country and name together.
- Open the intended match setup. The recorded example uses Local Match.
- Choose the country, then inspect the footballer beneath it before using PLAY.
- At kickoff, compare the bottom HUD with your intended name.
Keep the checklist small enough to finish
Prepare one playable choice for the mode you are entering. This sequence selects one footballer for each local side; it does not demonstrate a formation screen, an eleven-player lineup, chemistry bonuses or a reserve rotation system. Do not let those unshown requirements prevent you from reaching a match.
After trying a footballer, record whether the controls and aiming feel manageable to you. If you compare another choice, keep the same mode and conditions as far as practical. That is a personal comparison method, not a claim that this video measured a best build or that a single result ranks the roster.
The owned-list inspection and local selection are continuous parts of this recording. It does not reopen MY PLAYERS after the result, so this page does not claim that this local match increments a particular roster counter.
| Ready-to-play check | What confirms it |
|---|---|
| Owned identity located | Name, country and adjacent code read from one card |
| Selection checked | The intended card is shown beneath the chosen country |
| Match started | HUD repeats the intended footballer name |
