FIFA 19 Team of the Week 17 Starting XI brings Eriksen, Fernandinho
Each and every week EA’s FIFA crew rolls out a group of 23 deserving players for their new Team of the Week. In the Week 16 edition of TOTW, Felipe Anderson and Eden Hazzard were among the top players available. For TOTW 17, gamers are greeted by a 90-rated Christian Eriksen as the top player card available. Joining Eriksen on this week’s starting lineup are Fernandinho and Marko Arnautović as well as Sergio Asenjo.
In terms of performance, Arnautovic recorded two goals against Brighton for his West Ham club. Eriksen had a goal scored in his squad’s game against Cardiff. Villareal’s Asenjo and teammate Santi Cazorla both made the TOTW 17 due to performances this past week. In particular, Santi scored twice on Real Madrid and is now an 85 for the new TOTW.
Here’s a look at the complete starting XI as revealed by EA’s FIFA tweet earlier on Wednesday.
