How to get the best out of Emerson in Career Mode
Emerson is a wing-back at West Ham United (77 overall, LB) — good at that. At 30 they won't grow anymore, but they're still a reliable performer and the price eases.
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
What role should Emerson 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 LM. The game also rewards them with roles like Fullback and Winger, which reinforce that profile.
What do they do well?
Where they really hurt you is crossing (78) and stamina (76). Their crossing is competent and it's the trait to build their game around.
What are they missing?
No obvious holes for what their position asks: a profile without clear cracks.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Worth around 10,6 M€ with 71 K€ wages. Worth it as a one-season stopgap; don't expect to resell high. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
What is Emerson's best position?
Their best position is LB, though they can also play LM.
How high can Emerson's rating go?
They're already at their ceiling (77): at their age the rating won't rise.
Are they expensive to sign?
Their market value is around 10,6 M€, with 71 K€ wages.
Can they handle the flank up and down?
Their top speed is 66 — poor for their position.
