EA Sports FC 25: Jamie Finn and Eric Roberts select Women's TOTY
There were few disagreements between Jamie Finn and Eric Roberts as they chose their Women's TOTY for EA Sports FC 25.
One of the first locks came at left-back, with Finn's international teammate Katie McCabe selected by Eric Roberts. Finn offered no argument for selecting the Arsenal star down the left flank.
"Obviously, I can't disagree with that decision," said Finn, "She's just a well-decorated left-back, she can do anything in attack and obviously she's defensively sound as well. She's a great pick."
The first disagreement came at centre-back, where Jamie Finn pushed for Wendie Renard, while Roberts was in favour of Naomi Girda.
Midfield was where the biggest disagreement came, with a split between Roberts' pick of Chelsea's Sjoeke Nusken, and Finn opting for Alexia Putellas.
With Putellas' Barcelona teammates Aitana Bonmati and Caroline Hansen already locked in in midfield, the Spaniard was the natural choice.
Finn: I agree, Nusken is a very good player, she gets jobs done but I've gone for Putellas. Obviously, Bonmati's teammate at Barcelona, I know she's coming back from a long-term injury but I just think, in that midfield, you need her.
Roberts: Well, we know [Putellas and Bonmati] will play well together, I think Nusken's probably had more game time.
Finn: It's a toss-up.
Roberts: I think, to solidify the Barcelona midfield, we'll go with Putellas. They play well together all year...imagine how dangerous they'd be on this team.
