The first FIFA 22 Team of the Week emerged on Wednesday, which had a lot of Aston Villa fans talking on social media.
EA Sports release a 23-man squad each week, handing upgrades to players who have performed well the previous weekend.
Villa sealed an impressive 3-0 win over Everton last time out in the Premier League, with Leon Bailey and Matty Cash catching the eye.
Cash scored his first goal for the club to open the scoring, whereas Bailey was involved in Lucas Digne’s own goal before sealing the win with his first Villa strike.
Neither Villa man earned a place in the Team of the Week, though, with Chelsea’s Thiago Silva, Watford’s Ismaila Sarr, Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah and Brentford’s Ivan Toney the inclusions from the Premier League.
