How to get the best out of D. Neil in Career Mode
D. Neil is a holding midfielder at Sunderland (73 overall, CDM) — run-of-the-mill at that. At 23 they already deliver and still rise (ceiling 81): the sweet spot between output and projection. What sets them apart is their stamina of 91.
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
How do you get the best out of D. Neil?
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 Deep-Lying playmaker and Box crasher, which reinforce that profile. Technically, they cope well with their weaker foot (4★).
What are their strengths?
Where they really hurt you is stamina (91) and aggression (78). Their stamina is out of this world and it's the trait to build their game around.
Do they have weaknesses?
No obvious holes for what their position asks: a profile without clear cracks.
Are they a good buy?
Worth around 7,7 M€ with 40 K€ wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
How far can they go?
They start from 73 with a ceiling of 81 — that's +8 of headroom. Still at an improving age; with regular minutes they'll add points season by season. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
What is D. Neil's best position?
Their best position is CDM, though they can also play CM.
How high can D. Neil's rating go?
Their potential is 81. They start from 73, so they can rise +8 with minutes and development.
Are they expensive to sign?
Their market value is around 7,7 M€, with 40 K€ wages.
Do they win the ball back well?
Their reading of the game is 67 — poor for their position.
