Wolves Best Lineup:

• Jørgen Strand Larsen (ST) - OVR 75
• Matheus Cunha (LM) - OVR 79
• Jean-Ricner Bellegarde (RM) - OVR 75
• Pablo Sarabia (CM) - OVR 77

• Nélson Semedo (RB) - OVR 78
• Craig Dawson (CB) - OVR 77
• Santiago Bueno (CB) - OVR 77
• Sam Johnstone (GK) - OVR 78

Wolves’ lineup in EA FC 25 consists of hardworking players, but they don't have the same firepower as top-tier teams. Their attack is led by Jørgen Strand Larsen, a solid yet unspectacular striker with an Overall (OVR) rating of 75.

Their midfield features Mario Lemina and Pablo Sarabia, both of whom have ratings in the high 70s, and Matheus Cunha on the left wing is one of their standout players with an OVR of 79.

Defensively, Rayan Aït-Nouri and Nélson Semedo provide pace and defensive capability, while Sam Johnstone offers decent shot-stopping with an OVR of 78.

Overall, the Wolves have a team with balanced ratings, but no player breaks into the elite status, leaving them vulnerable against stronger teams.

Phil Foden (88 OVR) and Jack Grealish (84 OVR) provide flair and creativity on the wings, while Kevin De Bruyne (90 OVR) and Bernardo Silva (88 OVR) pull the strings in midfield, making City a nightmare for any opponent.

Rodri (91 OVR), one of the highest-rated defensive midfielders, provides excellent protection to the defense.

At the back, Rúben Dias (88 OVR) and John Stones (85 OVR) form a solid central defensive partnership, with Ederson (88 OVR) between the sticks, making Manchester City's defense as formidable as their attack.

Final Verdict

When comparing these two teams in EA FC 25, Manchester City clearly stands out as the superior team. Wolves has some solid players, but their overall ratings pale in comparison to the star-studded lineup of Manchester City.

City’s attack, featuring Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne, is unmatched, and their defense, anchored by Rúben Dias and Rodri, is far stronger than Wolves’ backline.

While Wolves can offer a challenge in certain situations, Manchester City's depth, quality, and versatility make them the better team in EA FC 25 by a significant margin. If you're looking for a team to dominate your opponents in both online and offline modes, Manchester City is the clear choice.
