FC 26 Season 5 brings a host of new Silver Icons to obtain in Ultimate Team, and using a well-optimized team will save plenty of time.
Every Silver Icon has two tasks, and you have to complete either one to unlock the card. With so many Silver Icons on offer, it will take a lot of time if you try to get them all. Thankfully, using a strategic lineup will reduce the effort on your end.
Best squad to get FC 26 Season 5 Silver Icons
To quicken the process, you’ll want to play in Squad Battles (min. Professional difficulty) and have the following in your squad.
- Six Premier League players in your starting eleven
- One French player in the starting eleven. You should put him as a forward.
Building the correct squad is only a part of the grind. Here’s what you’ll need to complete to earn all the Icons on offer.
- Assist with a through ball with a French player (in 50 games)
- Win the game (40 games)
- Score a goal with a chip shot with a French player (in 40 games)
- Score a goal from outside the box (in 30 games)
- Concede less than one goal (in 25 games)
- Score with a CB (in 15 games)
Scoring with a chip shot is the hardest of all the tasks. If you want to take an alternate strategy, I will recommend using a French striker in Division Rivals and Champions. When you’re playing against other players, there will be situations when you’ll be through on goal. It’s easy to score with a chip shot when your opponent is rushing their goalkeeper out.
The rest of the tasks can be completed in either PvP (Live events, Rivals, etc.) or against the AI (Squad Battles).
