In the first guide to the best FIFA 20 FUT players, we looked at the men between the sticks, the goalkeepers. In today's walk through the FUT landscape, we're going to take a look at the men who are supposed to stop your Guardian from doing anything, the Defenders.
We're going to go through all the positions in the background and list the top five in each position. These are the best players to lace up a pair of boots and they are the ones you should really try to slip tackle on your team.
Icons will be included where applicable, all players will be natural to their position, and I'll even cover RWB and LWB as I'm spoiling you. Let's start with the rocks at the heart of your back, the central defenders.
