How do you get the best out of Max de Ligt?
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 Defender, which reinforce that profile.
What do they do well?
Where they really hurt you is marking (61) and strength (61). That a bit short marking is their signature.
What are they missing?
It's not all good: composure (44), aerial ability (57) and top speed (61). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Are they worth the price?
Worth around 443 K€ with 1 K€ wages. As an investment they're among the best: give them minutes, they gain value and you end up making money on them. 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.
How far can they go?
They start from 57 with a ceiling of 70 — that's +13 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
