First appearance in the data
Aron Gunnarsson is a defensive midfielder, rated 66 overall in FC 27 with a potential of 73, CDM. By the standards of the role, that's weak. At 37 they're in the final stretch; use them for what they still give, not for what they were.

Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Anchor them in front of the centre-backs to screen space, break up play and make the first pass. They're the team's balance. They can also play CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding, which reinforce that profile.
Where they really hurt you is aggression (75) and tackling (66). That competent aggression is their signature.
It's not all good: stamina (57). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Comes in free: no transfer fee, you only take on their — wages. At zero cost, the risk is minimal. At their age their value only drops: negotiate and don't tie a long contract.
They start from 66 with a ceiling of 73 — that's +7 of headroom. Some room left, but at their age improvement is slow now: don't expect a leap. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
Their best position is CDM, though they can also play CM.
Their potential is 73. They start from 66, so they can rise +7 with minutes and development.
No: they're a free agent, arrive for free and you only pay their — wages.
Their reading of the game is 65 — a bit short for their position.
