The FC 26 Rodri 90 Rating Leak: Ultimate Team Meta Implications

 Okay, so it seems the FC 26 leaks are suggesting Rodri will be a 90 overall rating again. While the debate rages about whether he *deserves* a higher rating in real life (and my money's on 'yes, absolutely'), my main thought immediately jumps to: what does this mean for Ultimate Team? A 90-rated CDM, even Rodri, isn't always an automatic 'must-have' for the meta, especially if you're trying to gather FC 26 Coins to build a truly dominant squad. This rating could have some interesting ripple effects on squad building.


In previous FC titles, CDMs often needed more than just high defensive stats. Pace, agility, and sometimes even long shots became crucial for a truly 'meta' defensive midfielder. While Rodri's passing and defending are undoubtedly top-tier, his pace often leaves a lot to be desired in-game. If he remains at 90, what will his specific attributes look like? Will he get a significant boost in defensive awareness, standing tackle, and passing, or will they spread the love thinly across other stats?

The addition of PlayStyles+ also complicates things. If Rodri gets a couple of truly impactful defensive or passing PlayStyles+, a 90-rated card could still be incredibly effective and sought after. Imagine a PlayStyle+ that significantly boosts his tackling range or defensive positioning. That could make him a brick wall regardless of a slightly lower overall rating than he might deserve.

However, if his PlayStyles+ are underwhelming or don't fit the meta, a 90-rated Rodri might be overlooked for icons or even other base golds who have more favorable stats for the early game. Competition is fierce, and players often prioritize stats like pace and dribbling over pure defensive prowess, especially in the first few weeks when everyone is trying to build a competitive squad.

This 90 rating also impacts his market value. If he were a 91 or 92, his price would naturally be higher due to rarity and perceived quality. At 90, he might be more affordable early on, which could be a silver lining for some. But will it be enough for him to compete with established meta CDMs or the powerful hero/icon cards that drop early?

Ultimately, it comes down to his specific in-game stats and PlayStyles+. A 90 OVR isn't inherently bad, but for a player of Rodri's real-life influence, it needs to be backed up by an exceptionally tuned card to justify it in the competitive Ultimate Team landscape. What are your predictions for his in-game stats and PlayStyles+ if he's indeed 90-rated?

This situation really highlights how crucial it is to understand the meta and how player ratings translate to in-game performance. Preparing with ample FC 26 Coins for sale can help you adapt quickly to the market fluctuations and grab the players that truly make a difference in your squad, regardless of their controversial OVRs.
