How do you play J. O'Brien-Whitmarsh?
Their place is in the hole, between the lines as CAM. Play them between the lines with freedom to receive and thread the final ball; they turn possession into chances. They can also play CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Playmaker and Shadow striker, which reinforce that profile. Technically, watch their weak foot (2★): always angle them onto their strong side.

Are they a good buy?
