In FC 26, full-backs are more than just defenders; they are crucial to both your attack and defence. A top-tier silver Left Back needs pace to burn, solid defensive awareness, and the stamina to run the flank for 90 minutes. These 8 options have the speed, PlayStyles, and links to dominate the left side of the pitch.
Why he’s meta: Dorgu brings elite-level links from Manchester United and the Premier League, making him a perfect fit for many top-tier squads. His blistering 86 Pace is his standout stat, but he’s also strong on the ball with solid Physical and Dribbling attributes, making him a threat going forward.
Why he’s meta: With 85 Pace and the valuable Quick Step PlayStyle, Brown is fantastic at accelerating down the wing and recovering defensively. His English nationality provides easy links, and a solid 79 Physical makes him tough to push off the ball. His speed and defensive presence are the main attractions.
Why he’s meta: A versatile option who can operate at both LB and LM. Nkounkou’s key asset is the Rapid PlayStyle, which makes his 83 Pace feel even faster in-game. His valuable French and Serie A links open up great hybrid squad possibilities.
Why he’s meta: Makengo is the ultimate utility player, offering positional coverage at LB, CB, and LM. He combines the Rapid PlayStyle with 82 Pace for excellent recovery speed and provides strong French/Bundesliga links, making him a flexible and valuable asset for any squad.
Why he’s meta: Espino is a pure defensive powerhouse. He has the recently-buffed Bruiser PlayStyle, allowing him to dominate physical battles on the flank. With an impressive 81 Physical and 88 Stamina, he can lock down his side for the full 90 minutes. A must-have for La Liga squads needing a brick wall at the back.
Why he’s meta: Pires is the definition of a reliable all-rounder. While he may not have one standout stat, his solid 70+ ratings across the board (excluding shooting and passing) mean he has no glaring weaknesses. His combination of Brazilian and Premier League links makes him an extremely useful chemistry piece.
Why he’s meta: If pure, unadulterated speed is what you need, Al-Harbi is your man. While he may be a challenge to link, the reward is immense: he has both the Quick Step and Rapid PlayStyles, making him arguably the fastest-feeling silver LB in the game. He is the ultimate meta wildcard.
Why he’s meta: Giles is a top-tier defensive fullback. His 86 Pace is already elite, but when combined with the Rapid and, crucially, the Anticipate PlayStyle, he becomes a really solid option. He offers great English & Championship links and is one of the most complete LBs available.
Conclusion
With your left flank now secured, you’ve added both defensive stability and attacking threat to your squad. A top-tier fullback can be the difference-maker in tight games. Be sure to check out the rest of our Silver Superstars series to find the best players for every other position
