How do you get the best out of James Talbot?
Between the sticks as GK. Sign them to lock down the goal for a long season; they give the consistency you ask of a starting keeper. The game also rewards them with roles like Goalkeeper, which reinforce that profile.
What are you buying?
Where they really hurt you is diving (59) and reflexes (58). That a bit short diving is their signature.
Do they have weaknesses?
It's not all good: positioning (54) and reflexes (58). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Are they a good buy?
Worth around 224 K€ with 1 K€ wages. You pay for immediate, proven output: pricey but no surprises, they deliver now. They're also out of contract soon (2025), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
How far can they go?
They start from 58 with a ceiling of 61 — that's +3 of headroom. Some room left, but at their age improvement is slow now: don't expect a leap. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
