How do you get the best out of G. McElroy?
Their place is the heart of the defence as CB. A pure centre-back: pair them with a quick one if they lack top speed, and use their aerial dominance at set pieces. The game also rewards them with roles like Stopper and Defender, which reinforce that profile.
What are their strengths?
Their weapons: strength (67) and jumping (65). Their strength is a bit short and it's the trait to build their game around.
Where do they struggle?
Their weak points: composure (45), reading of the game (50) and top speed (51). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Are they a good buy?
Their market price sits around 325 K€, with 1 K€ in wages. As an investment they're among the best: give them minutes, they gain value and you end up making money on them. And with a contract until 2025, you have leverage to bring the price down.
How much will they grow?
They start from 56 with a ceiling of 64 — that's +8 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
