How to get the best out of M. O'Brien in Career Mode
M. O'Brien is a midfielder at Drogheda United (54 overall, CM) — a liability at that. At 21 they still have 6 points to grow up to 60, so they add to the XI and gain value.
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2024
How do you play M. O'Brien?
Their place is in central midfield as CM. They're the engine of midfield: circulate the ball, start moves and connect defence to attack. Surround them with legs that run for them. They can also play CDM. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding and Holding, which reinforce that profile.
What do they do well?
Where they really hurt you is short passing (57) and vision (54). Their short passing is a bit short and it's the trait to build their game around.
What are they missing?
It's not all good: long passing (52) and reading of the game (52). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Worth around 184 K€ with 2 K€ wages. As an investment they're among the best: give them minutes, they gain value and you end up making money on them. And with a contract until 2024, you have leverage to bring the price down.
How far can they go?
They start from 54 with a ceiling of 60 — that's +6 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.
What is M. O'Brien's best position?
Their best position is CM, though they can also play CDM.
How high can M. O'Brien's rating go?

Are they expensive to sign?
Their market value is around 184 K€, with 2 K€ wages.
Are they reliable on the ball?
Their short passing is 57 — weak for their position.
