- Quick Answer: Run a 6'2", 165 lbs Marauder build with Quick Step+ to lock down opposing wingers while keeping enough agility to transition quickly between attack and defense.
It's difficult to control the game when you don't have the ball. That's why defense is more important than attack in FC 27.
The strikers in your FC 27 Club will pretend to be the main men, but the backline is what gets your squad wins.
Because of how crucial defending is, you'd need both your fullbacks to sit in their own half and protect their flanks.
We have already detailed build guides for strikers and midfielders. You'll find the best builds for fullbacks in FC 27 Clubs below.
The Best LB/RB Build For FC 27 Clubs And The Grounds
For a fullback, you can go for either the Boss or Marauder Archetype. There is no tough choice here, as it entirely depends on how you want to play.
If you need the ability to catch defenders, pick Marauder because of the Quick Step+.
In case you prefer advanced defending shoulder challenges and need a more defensively capable fullback, pick Boss.
However, we do think Quick Step+ is a bit more important, especially early on, for a fullback. We would recommend picking it unless you have something else in mind.
A fullback also needs to be tall and physical, but don't go for a bulky build like you would with a CB. That can restrict your agility, making it harder to react and change direction quickly during transitions.
For AMPs and attributes, focus on pace and defending. Followed by passing and then physical.
Attacking fullbacks aren't that meta, but if you do want to build one, you'll have to focus heavily on passing and a fair bit of shooting.
All in all, here's what the ideal fullback build will look like in FC 27 Clubs:
