The six face stats at a glance.
Matthew Pollock is a central defender at Watford, rated 71 overall in FC 26 with a potential of 77, CB. By the standards of the role, that's decent. At 23 they already deliver and still rise (ceiling 77): the sweet spot between output and projection. Above all they stand out for their strength (85).

Their place is the heart of the defence as CB. Put them in charge of the back line; they defend the box and set pieces better than chasing in open space. The game also rewards them with roles like Stopper and Defender, which reinforce that profile.
Where they really hurt you is strength (85) and jumping (80). That elite strength is their signature.
It's not all good: composure (56) and top speed (50). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Worth around 3,2 M€ with 22 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 (2026), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
They start from 71 with a ceiling of 77 — that's +6 of headroom. Still at an improving age; with regular minutes they'll add points season by season. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
Their best position is CB.
