KONAMI’s hit football title eFootball has been bringing some interesting new updates recently added with new features, and as new campaigns arrive, new sets of cards and managers are being introduced into the game. One of those interesting packs that came recently to eFootball 2025 was the Arsenal FC 24-25 Pack, which brought in 11 players alongside their current manager. I did give a try on that pack and after spending a good amount of analyzing, here’s my review of the Arsenal FC 24-25 Club Pack.
The pack contains 11 players and 1 Booster Manager for 1500 Coins.
Manager: Mikel Arteta
- Version: Oct ’24 Arsenal FC Pack
- Proficiency: Long Ball Counter (88 Rated)
- Affinity: Star Players+
- Booster Type: Double Booster – Acceleration and Tight Possession
Arteta is definitely the standout in this pack. Being the first double booster manager alongside his Proficiency in Long Ball Counter makes him a fan favorite pick because many players employ this tactic. His Coaching Affinity is with Star Players, which gives a 200% boost for 5-star players, allows you to quickly upgrade them without waiting for experience points.
The Double Booster effect applies to Acceleration and Tight Possession, giving both stats a +1 boost. This makes a noticeable difference during counters, as Acceleration comes into play when breaking quickly. Tight Possession might not always be visible in-game, but it provides your defenders and midfielders with extra cushion to maintain control of the ball more effectively.
Bukayo Saka
- Position: Right Wing Forward (RWF)
- Playstyle: Prolific Winger
Might be the best card in the pack. Saka’s pace and dribbling allow him to glide past defenders and create space on the wing. His ability to cut inside and deliver precise crosses or shots makes him a constant threat in attack. He’s always looking to provide assists or score himself, adding dynamic energy to the offense. His work rate helps stretch defenses and create openings.
Declan Rice
- Position: Defensive Midfielder (DMF)
- Playstyle: Box To Box
Rice anchors the midfield with his strong tackles and intelligent positioning, and is a standout when it comes to defensive abilities. He disrupts opposition attacks and provides stability in the center. While his passing is solid, he contributes to transitions from defense to attack thanks to his playstyle. However, to balance him out, I’d suggest toning down some of his already strong defensive stats and enhancing his offensive capabilities a bit more, making him a more well-rounded option in the midfield.
Martin Ødegaard
- Position: Central Midfielder (CMF)
- Playstyle: Orchestrator
Ødegaard is the creative force in midfield and has excellent dribbling and passing range. He excels at threading through balls to break defensive lines and create scoring chances. His ability to dictate play and pick out teammates in dangerous areas sets him apart. I don’t like this playstyle on him, but you can get him out of it by using him at AMF to make the most of his stats.
William Saliba
- Position: Center Back (CB)
- Playstyle: Build Up
Saliba’s cards are often top-tier, and this one is no different. He’s composed in defense and plays a key role in building attacks from the back with decent passing. He is pacy, doesn’t get caught out of position, and is a physical presence. Overall, Saliba’s ability to read the game, prevent threats, and intercept crucial passes makes him another good pick.
Kai Havertz
- Position: Attacking Midfielder (AMF)
- Playstyle: Hole Player
Havertz is a versatile attacking midfielder who finds pockets of space to link up play. His ability to make runs into the box thanks to his high offensive awareness and create opportunities for the strikers up front. He’s comfortable with the ball at his feet, has good passing, and can even finish well, so you can also have him in an SS role behind your striker. I suggest giving him One Touch Pass and One Time Shot, which will help in quick buildup and shooting.
Ricardo Calafiori
- Position: Center Back (CB)
- Playstyle: Extra Frontman
This is the card I’m very fond of because in real life Calafiori combines strong defensive qualities with the ability to contribute offensively. As a utility player, defensively, he’s solid, making crucial interceptions and tackles. His build-up ability is good for LBC tactic, he can easily ping low lofted accurate passes. His versatility allows him to impact both ends of the pitch effectively thanks to his runs forward during counters or set pieces.
Ben White
- Position: Right Back (RB)
- Playstyle: Offensive Full-back
White is a reliable right-back who focuses on solid defensive positioning. He is more of a centreback with those stats, but again offensively, he’s also capable of supporting the attack with overlapping runs and accurate passes. His ability to track wingers and stop crosses is key to his role. Another solid option, but I felt his Showtime card was a better option at RB because of that added Edged Crossing skill.
David Raya
- Position: Goalkeeper (GK)
- Playstyle: Offensive Goalkeeper
Raya is a decent goalkeeper in the game, whose best traits are quick reflexes and shot-stopping ability. His ability to play with his feet allows the team to build from the back. His position is pretty good, but you can catch him out of it while going for long shots. Not a good upgrade if you are having some high rated GKs.
Jurrien Timber
- Position: Center Back (CB)
- Playstyle: Extra Frontman
Another CB, another fantastic card. Timber is a versatile center-back who can also push forward to support attacks. He’s surprisingly very good on the ball, and has decent dribbling and low passing that make him effective at linking up play from defense. Defensively, he’s strong an fast, hence comfortable under pressure. Pair him with a Build Up CB because I’ve noticed he sometimes leaves a little-to-too much space behind, so you need to cover up for him.
Leandro Trossard
- Position: Left Wing Forward (LWF)
- Playstyle: Creative Playmaker
Trossard is a decent winger option, but I felt he is better as an AMF due to his playstyle, and he doesn’t lose any proficiency in that position. His dribbling and awareness allow him to break through defensive lines and set up chances. He is very quick, you can use short bursts to get the ball away from the opponent and look for a pass or a shot.
Thomas Partey
- Position: Defensive Midfielder (DMF)
- Playstyle: Box To Box
Might be the last card in the pack, but Partey is a great pick who covers ground quickly and breaks up opposition attacks. His physicality and tackling are his strengths. He’s also capable of driving forward with the ball and contributing to attacking moves. Might not be a guaranteed starter but surely usable across events.
I think for Arsenal fans, this pack should be a no-brainer. Amazing set of cards, a good LBC manager, good boosts for attackers, and decent card designs too. For other players, if you want a LBC double booster with 3-4 great cards, this pack seems to be good.
I had the coins and so went for it, but my suggestion is to wait until the December 2024 update which will bring some amazing new cards for us, but also some Big Time cards might be added just like how we saw Griezmann and Messi packs last year.
