FUT 17’s first Team of the Season is here

Turn the hype sirens all the way up: FIFA Ultimate Team’s biggest and best event of the year is officially underway.

Spanning six plus weeks, the Ultimate Team Teams of the Season (or TOTS) begin their roll out in packs today at 6 p.m. BST (1 p.m. ET).

The first Team of the Season is the FIFA Community selected "Most Consistent Without an Inform" group. These players, picked by members of the official EA SPORTS FIFA forums, were the most consistently outstanding in their respective leagues without having had a single week performance great enough to merit their inclusion in one of Ultimate Team's weekly Teams of the Week.

Amongst the highlights in the first release is Real Madrid RB (and unfortunately since injured in real life) Daniel Carvajal. Carvajal has been a steady hand down the perimeter for the defending Champions League champs but inexplicably hadn’t gotten a special card this FUT.

The second best team in England, Tottenham Hotspur, get a marquee representative in Belgium international center-back Jan Vertonghen. Vertonghen’s versatile enough to play CB in a four or three-back set alike and has even played some left-back this year for Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs. His high-rated card could feature in future Weekend Leagues for Premier League and best-possible-Red Devils squads alike.

Here are the first three Teams of the Season, these as selected by fellow FIFA Ultimate Team fans and devotees:
