What role should Eirik Saunes have?
Their place is the flank, up and down the wing as LB. They suit a system that lets them get forward: they add width in attack and need cover in case they're caught out behind. They can also play RM and LM. The game also rewards them with roles like Wingback and Wide playmaker, which reinforce that profile.
What are their strengths?
What makes them reliable: top speed (69) and acceleration (69). Their top speed is decent and it's the trait to build their game around.
Where do they struggle?
Their soft spots: crossing (60) and marking (61). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Worth around 1 M€ with 1 K€ wages. Not a bargain, but money well spent if you want a reliable starter from day one. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
How far can they go?
They start from 65 with a ceiling of 68 — that's +3 of headroom. Some room left, but at their age improvement is slow now: don't expect a leap. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
