How to get the best out of J. Bolger in Career Mode
J. Bolger is a central defender at Drogheda United (58 overall, CB) — poor at that. At 24 they already deliver and still rise (ceiling 62): the sweet spot between output and projection.
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
What role should J. Bolger have?
Their place is the heart of the defence as CB. Put them in charge of the back line; they defend the box and set pieces better than chasing in open space. They can also play CDM and CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Defender and Wide back, which reinforce that profile.
What are their strengths?
What makes them reliable: strength (79) and jumping (71). Their strength is good and it's the trait to build their game around.
What are they missing?
Their soft spots: composure (42), slide tackling (52) and top speed (49). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Worth around 325 K€ with 1 K€ wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. And with a contract until 2025, you have leverage to bring the price down.
How far can they go?
They start from 58 with a ceiling of 62 — that's +4 of headroom. Still at an improving age; with regular minutes they'll add points season by season. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
