How to get the best out of J. Allen in Career Mode
J. Allen is a defensive midfielder at Swansea City (68 overall, CDM) — unremarkable at that. At 34 they've seen it all: an emergency or leadership signing, not a project.
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2024
How do you play J. Allen?
Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Their job is the dirty work: win the ball back, cover the full-backs when they push on and hold their position. They can also play CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding and Deep-Lying playmaker, which reinforce that profile.
What do they do well?
Their weapons: short passing (72) and marking (70). Their short passing is run-of-the-mill and it's the trait to build their game around.
What are they missing?
Their weak points: strength (55). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Their market price sits around 432 K€, with 21 K€ in wages. Worth it as a one-season stopgap; don't expect to resell high. And with a contract until 2025, you have leverage to bring the price down.
What is J. Allen's best position?
Their best position is CDM, though they can also play CM.
How high can J. Allen's rating go?
They're already at their ceiling (68): at their age the rating won't rise.
Are they expensive to sign?
Their market value is around 432 K€, with 21 K€ wages.
Do they win the ball back well?
Their reading of the game is 67 — weak for their position.
