How do you get the best out of Esquerdinha?
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, which reinforce that profile.
What are their strengths?
Where they really hurt you is top speed (76) and acceleration (74). That reliable top speed is their signature.
Do they have weaknesses?
It's not all good: reading of the game (50) and marking (50). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth the price?
Worth around 590 K€ with 5 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 (2027), 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 75 — that's +17 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.
What is Esquerdinha's best position?
Their best position is LB, though they can also play LM.
How high can Esquerdinha's rating go?
Their potential is 75. They start from 58, so they can rise +17 with minutes and development.
Are they expensive to sign?
Their market value is around 590 K€, with 5 K€ wages.
Can they handle the flank up and down?
Their top speed is 76 — competent for their position.
