The Best Possible XI On FIFA Ultimate Team Is Stupidly Expensive

Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty competitive when it comes to playing FIFA but to spend over £500 on building an ultimate team is just ridiculous.

Gamesradar have figured out how much it would cost to buy the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, and then place them in a squad that will achieve in terms of stats and chemistry.

The guys placed a value of £0.00015219047 on each coin in the PS4 version of 'FUT'. This figure was based on someone buying seven packs of gold cards, to a value of 7,500 coins per pack (so 52,500 total), for £7.99.

But realistically, you'd end up spending thousands of pounds to try and find the rarest of cards. Just look at YouTubers who spend countless hours and cash trying to find your Ronaldo's and Messi's.

Here's the ultimate XI. NOTE: The squad is based around mostly Spanish players to maximise chemistry

Here's how much that will cost you:

• GK: David De Gea (Manchester United, 90) - 129,000 / £19.63
• RB: Sergi Roberto (Barcelona, 83) - 18,500 / £2.82
• CB: Gerard Pique (Barcelona, 86) - 18,750 / £2.85
• CB: Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid, 89) - 141,000 / £21.46
• LB: Marcelo (Real Madrid, 86) - 38,750 / £5.89
• CM: Ivan Rakitic (Barcelona, 87) - 45,000 / £6.85
• CM: Andres Iniesta (Barcelona, 88) - 69,000 / £10.50
• CM: Luka Modric (Real Madrid, 89) - 94,000 / £14.30
• RW: Lionel Messi (Barcelona, 93) - 940,000 / £143.06
• ST: Luis Suarez (Barcelona, 92) - 548,000 / £83.40
• LW: Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid, 94) - 1,300,000 / £197.85

Wow.
