How to get the best out of A. Read in Career Mode

A. Read is a holding midfielder at Colchester United (63 overall, CDM) — weak at that. At 25 it's immediate output: what you see is what you get, no waiting. What sets them apart is their stamina of 87.

By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025

What role should A. Read have?

Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Their job is the dirty work: win the ball back, cover the full-backs when they push on and hold their position. They can also play CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding and Box-to-Box, which reinforce that profile. Technically, they cope well with their weaker foot (4★).

What are their strengths?

Their best assets are stamina (87) and short passing (65). That outstanding stamina is their signature.

Do they have weaknesses?

Where they struggle: slide tackling (52) and marking (56). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.

Are they worth the price?

Their market price sits around 649 K€, with 1 K€ in wages. You pay for immediate, proven output: pricey but no surprises, they deliver now. They're also out of contract soon (2026), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.

What is A. Read's best position?

Their best position is CDM, though they can also play CM.

How high can A. Read's rating go?

Their potential is 65. They start from 63, so they can rise +2 with minutes and development.

Are they expensive to sign?

Their market value is around 649 K€, with 1 K€ wages.

Do they win the ball back well?

Their reading of the game is 59 — a bit short for their position.
