Between the sticks as GK. A first-choice keeper without question for their level: safe between the sticks and one-on-one. The game also rewards them with roles like Sweeper keeper, which reinforce that profile.
What do they do well?
Their best assets are diving (64) and reflexes (64). Their diving is weak and it's the trait to build their game around.

How much will they grow?
