By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2024

What role should Matthew Smith have?

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 Box-to-Box and Holding, which reinforce that profile.

What are their strengths?

What makes them reliable: stamina (73) and composure (68). Their stamina is run-of-the-mill and it's the trait to build their game around.

Where do they struggle?

Their soft spots: reading of the game (59). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.

Are they a good buy?

Worth around 999 K€ with 5 K€ wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. And with a contract until 2025, you have leverage to bring the price down.

How far can they go?

They start from 64 with a ceiling of 70 — 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 Matthew Smith's best position?

Their best position is CM, though they can also play CDM.

How high can Matthew Smith's rating go?

Their potential is 70. They start from 64, so they can rise +6 with minutes and development.

Are they expensive to sign?

Their market value is around 999 K€, with 5 K€ wages.

Are they reliable on the ball?

Their short passing is 65 — poor for their position.
