FIFA 19 Team of the Week 28 Revealed: Paul Pogba, Eden Hazard Amongst International FUT TOTW Players
A pair of players with ratings over 90 headline the FIFA 19 Team of the Week 28. The latest squad consists of stars who had impressive international performances on the pitch recently. That includes Paul Pogba and Eden Hazard amongst other deserving players. Let’s take a look at the latest Team of the Week including starting XI, substitutes, and reserves.
FIFA 19 Team of the Week 28 Starting XI headlined by Paul Pogba, Eden Hazard
FIFA Ultimate Team has been good to gamers in recent installments of Team of the Week. For example, FUT TOTW Week 27 included Wayne Rooney and Angel di Maria. In Week 26, we saw Raheem Sterling and James Rodriguez. Now we’ve got Manchester United’s Paul Pogba and Chelsea’s Eden Hazard amongst the starting XI players.
Hazard is quite deserving of his spot too. The Chelsea star netted three goals to help his team in the Belgium UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying. Those goals helped the team get victories over Russia and Cyprus. Meanwhile, Pogba helped his French team defeat Iceland 4-0 and Moldova 4-1. Their performances resulted in a 94-rated card for Eden Hazard and a 91-rated card Paul Pogba.
A look at the rest of the starting XI reveals an 89, Jordi Alba, 88 Miralem Pjanic, and 86 Memphis Depay, amongst the latest TOTW stars. Here’s the entire lineup, presented via FIFA’s tweet on Wednesday.

Several players had impressive boosts as they gained a spot on TOTW 28. Mexico’s Hector Moreno surged five points for his rating, moving from 76 to an 81. Russia’s Dennis Cheryshev also had a nice boost, going up four points to become an 81-rated LM.
There’s already one clear omission this week and that is England’s Raheem Sterling. He was on the TOTW just a few weeks ago and in a recent victory, he achieved a hat trick. However, it seems the FIFA Ultimate Team folks decided to give Sterling a rest in favor of another deserving star.
