BUNDESLIGA SQUAD

The choice for this team’s players was based on the analysis made in the position guides. To understand why we picked player A instead of player B, please take a look at those guides.
If there are undoubted players in this team, Neuer is certainly one of them. He is clearly the best. He has the highest diving, handling, kicking and reflexes stats.
Klostermann and Alaba are two fast centre-backs that will help to keep your goal safe. In our opinion, the other spots of the defence should be filled with Kevin Mbabu and Alphonso Davies. However, if you feel uncomfortable with the defence skills of Mbabu, you should try Mukiele or a player from another league (an Icon would be great!).
There are at least three midfielders on Bundesliga good enough to play on this squad. Since we are using a formation with one CDM and one CAM, we picked the two best players for these positions: Kimmich and Marco Reus. However, Goretzka could also be a good choice to be here. In fact, he would replace both Kimmich and Reus very easily (you can even use him as a striker if you don’t have enough coins for our first two suggestions). Sancho and Sané are easy choices for the wings.
On the attack, Lewandowski and Håland are much much much better than any other striker.
Once all players have reached maximum individual chemistry via loyalty (achieved by each player after 10 matches for your club or by being pack pulled), you can go without a manager for your squad. They’ll be of no use while wasting contracts.

The choices for this more affordable team were based on the analysis made in the position guides. If you want to understand our choices, be sure to read those guides.
On the back, Gulacsi will keep your goal safe. Upamecano and Lucas Hernández are fast and solid centre backs, supported on the left side by Roussillon and on the right side by Mbabu, just like we have suggested last year.
Zakaria is perfect to play in the centre. He has the muscle that every midfield needs and he is also good to start the attacks. Can and Brandt complete the midfield. On the wings, Gnabry and Coman are responsible to support the striker.
We picked Hee Chan for the most advanced position since he is the third-best striker from Bundesliga and the first two are too expensive to a medium-budget squad. However, he is more suitable for a counter style. If this is not your case maybe you can try Rashica, Kramarić or adapt a good midfielder to this position.
This squad was built with players which price was under 20k coins on the release date. However, if you still have some room in your budget, Klostermannand and Sancho are players that would improve this squad a lot.

The choice for this team’s players was based on the analysis made in the position guides. To understand why were these the players selected, please read those guides.
Hrádecký is our choice for the goal. It won’t be because of him that you will lose. Piszczek, Boateng, Mukiele and Günter complete the defence.
In the midfield, Laimer and Sabitzer complement each other well. The first gives security to the backline, while the other usually pushes forward to assist his teammates. Bellarabi on the right and Kostić on the left fill the wings in order to assist Chan and Rashica. If you want more balanced strikers, you may want to try Kramarić.
There is room for improvements but you will need to save some coins. This squad was built with players which price was under 2k coins on the release date. However, if you still have some room in your budget, Roman Bürki and Emre Can are players that would improve this squad a lot.

FIFA 21 BUNDESLIGA SQUAD SUGGESTIONS
For all those players who plan to build a FIFA 21 Bundesliga squad, we’ve conducted an extensive analysis on the best players and suggested squads for different budgets.
Guidelines
Building a team is the biggest challenge in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team. It doesn’t need to be the best team, since the budget may not allow it, but it needs to be a team designed for your style and needs.
When choosing which players to play with, you will have to look carefully at their attributes. Choosing a team based on ratings is one of the most common mistakes. For each position, and focusing on the truly important attributes, we’ll show you who are the best players to choose.
It’s also important to check if the player you choose fits the formations you like to play in. For example, a good full-back will be useless if the player only uses a formation with three defenders.
Last but not least, you should try to get the maximum chemistry possible. Most of the players base their squads on a single league or nation, but the most experienced ones are able to build hybrid teams without hurting chemistry.

Disclaimer Notes
This guide is based on our perception of the game, which may be different from yours. It should only be used as an orientation, since it’s impossible to build a team that fits everyone. Besides that, there are several factors we don’t know that influence the choices, such as budget, formation, custom tactics, instructions, style of play and player preferences.
Another important point that must stay very clear to whoever is reading this guide, it’s about some criteria we used:
Only Gold Players
Silver and bronze players are not taken into account in this guide. Most of them are not good enough to replace the gold ones.
Only Regular Players
IF and special items are not taken into account in this guide. Most of them can’t be considered good value for money and should only be used by players with a good budget.
Only Normal Players
Upgraded or transferred items are not taken into account in this guide. Only players who have started their season in the Bundesliga and with their original attributes were considered.

More Guides
Bundesliga lives in the shadow of Premier League and La Liga but the truth is that it has many quality players.
The qualification of the champion is made through the made points system. Whichever team gathers the most points, wins the league. The first four classified gain access to the champions league of the next year, while the fifth and sixth qualify to the Europa League and the last three trade places with the first two qualified of the 2. Bundesliga and with the play-off winner. Every season starts in August and finishes in May, having 34 game weeks with nine matches each, being a total of 306 matches per season.
Bundesliga is the most-watched sports league in the world and the third-best league classified in the UEFA league coefficients.
Started in 1962, the Bundesliga has been conquered by twelve clubs. The dominant club is Bayern Munich, with a total of 30 titles. Borussia Dortmund (5), Borussia Mönchengladbach (5), Werder Bremen (4), Hamburger SV (3), VfB Stuttgart (3), FC Köln (2) and FC Kaiserslautern (2) were the other teams that won more than once.
