eFootball 2026 Epic and Show Time 1-2 Cut-in A (Gullit, Nedved) pack: Review, Best Progression Builds, and Skills

A new Link-up Playstyle has made its debut, and eFootball 2026 doesn’t miss out on giving us a themed 200-player pack, so here we are, with the Epic and Show Time 1-2 Cut-in A lineup. The pack features Ruud Gullit and Pavel Nedvěd on the Epic side, along with Viktor Gyökeres and Jamal Musiala as Show Time picks.

It’s an interesting combination, not just because of the names, but also how different these players are in terms of roles and playstyles. So the focus here is simple: how good are these cards individually, how should you build them, and whether this pack is actually worth going for or just another skip.

eFootball 2026 Epic and Show Time 1-2 Cut-in A players

Ruud Gullit

• Position: CF
• Playing Style: Fox in The Box
• Show Time Skill: Phenomenal Finishing and Magnetic Feet

This is a new version of Gullit again, and KONAMI keeps changing his role every time. We’ve had Creative Playmaker, Deep Lying Forward, the very recent AC Milan Hole Player, even Classic No. 10, and now Fox in the Box. Wouldn’t be surprised if Goal Poacher comes next, it is going to be overpowered.

The stats are still strong, that’s expected with Gullit. Big frame, fast enough, can finish, and physically very hard to deal with. The interesting part here is Magnetic Feet. That should help him feel a bit smoother on the ball, which was sometimes an issue with Gullit cards.

Compared to the Bullet Header version, this one is more focused on ball control and holding off defenders rather than aerial play. But outside of that, it doesn’t really improve much. Shooting and stamina are not at the same level, and that affects how much you can push him.

Also, the Hole Player card of his added to the versatility since Gullit is such a player that you can play anywhere. So yeah, slightly better on the ball, but not necessarily a better Gullit overall.

Suggested Skills: Double Touch, Sole Control, Flip Flap, Acrobatic Finishing, Aerial Superiority

Suggested Booster(s): Striker’s Instinct

Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Ruud Gullit

Pavel Nedvěd

• Position: LMF
• Playing Style: Creative Playmaker
• Show Time Skill: Phenomenal Pass and Low Screamer

Nedvěd cards are usually strong, and this one is no different. His Hole Player AMF version is already considered one of the best in the game, so expectations are high here, too.

On the ball, he’s reliable as always. Passing is strong, which I feel is needed for this role, dribbling is in the nice bracket, and he has the stamina to keep going throughout the match, which has always been his biggest strength. You can build a play through him or use him to push forward.

This version, being a Creative Playmaker gives him a bit more space to operate, especially when you move him centrally with the new Link-up style. That actually works well with Low Screamer, since he’ll get those chances to shoot from distance.

Still, the Hole Player version feels more direct and threatening. The attacking stats lie around the late 80s or early 90s, which is just nice to have and not groundbreaking like some other cards, so I feel he will overperform his stats either way.

Suggested Skills: Double Touch, Fighting Spirit, First Time Shot, Sole Control, Hell Trick

Suggested Booster(s): Fantasista, Agility

Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Pavel Nedvěd

Viktor Gyökeres

• Position: CF
• Playing Style: Fox in The Box
• Show Time Skill: Phenomenal Finishing and Willpower

Gyökeres looks solid on paper. Tall striker, strong physically, good pace, and finishing is good. He’s more of a straight-line striker. Gets the ball, pushes through defenders, and finishes. The physicality helps a lot here, especially when holding off challenges.

Dribbling doesn’t look great, and honestly, it probably won’t feel great either for someone his size. Not someone you’ll use to carry the ball too much. Just keep it simple with him. Heading is also weaker than you’d expect for his build, so don’t rely on crosses too much.

Suggested Skills: Double Touch, Heading, Aerial Superiority, Long Range Shooting, Acrobatic Finishing

Suggested Booster(s): Striker’s Instinct

Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Viktor Gyökeres

Jamal Musiala

• Position: LMF
• Playing Style: Creative Playmaker
• Show Time Skill: Phenomenal Pass and Momentum Dribbling

Musiala is clearly built for dribbling. High balance, good control, and with Momentum Dribbling, he’s the type of player you give the ball to and let him move. But I would like to add a pointer that I have felt, at the same time, his player model can feel a bit awkward.

Longer legs sometimes make touches feel slightly off compared to smaller dribblers, so it’s not always perfectly smooth. Talking about other aspects, passing is also strong, so he can create once he draws defenders.

Weak foot usage is also not great, and physically, he’s not strong enough to hold off defenders. Finishing is decent, but not something you would call 10/10 times he will score. Another reason I don’t like this card, well, he gets no club affinity.

Suggested Skills: Fighting Spirit, Long Range Shooting, Outside Curler, Pinpoint Crossing, Flip Flap

Suggested Booster(s): Fantasista

Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Jamal Musiala
