Part of the legendary Arsenal Invincibles and the 1998 FIFA World Cup with France he has definitely earned his spot as an Icon of the game and Robert Pires has his Team of the Year Icon SBC available in FIFA Ultimate now!
The former Premier League legend’s SBC is expensive, coming in at a price of 296.6K coins and needs 6 segments to unlock the card.
The card has some phenomenal stats and characteristics such as:
- 90 Acceleration and Sprint Speed with the Controlled AcceleRATE type and his High and Average+ body type will make him really fast in long sprints
- He has great Shooting stats with 91 Positioning, 90 Finishing with the Finesse Shot Trait allowing him to finish chances inside the box with precision and ease
- Amazing Passing stats with 92 Vision, 90 Crossing, 89 Short Passing, 86 Long Passing and 88 Curve allowing him to distribute the ball for the final pass from anywhere on the pitch
- His Dribbling is very high with 91 Agility, 90 Balance, 88 Reactions, 93 Ball Control, 92 Dribbling and 90 Composure which make him very good on the ball
- 88 Stamina allows him to play 80 minutes in game before needing to be substituted
- 5-Star Skill Moves and 4-Star Weak Foot allow him to carry out all the meta skill moves and execute passes with both feet with a lot of accuracy
- High/Medium workrates are ideal for an attacker
His ideal position in game is at CAM in a 4-3-3(4) or a 4-2-3-1. He could also thrive as a wide CAM in the 4-2-3-1 or the 4-2-2-2.

The card has a few drawbacks such as:
- 80 Shot Power might make it a little difficult to execute long shots and fully utilise his Finesse Shot Trait
- 66 Strength and 52 Aggression make him easier to be pushed off the ball by strong defenders in duels and 50/50’s
- His body type will make him feel clunky while turning
