How do you play J. Roche?
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. The game also rewards them with roles like Defender, which reinforce that profile.
What are their strengths?
Where they really hurt you is strength (67) and tackling (54). That weak strength is their signature.
What are they missing?
It's not all good: composure (44), reading of the game (48) and top speed (54). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Are they a good buy?
Worth around 130 K€ with 1 K€ wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. 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 50 with a ceiling of 66 — that's +16 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
