What role should Michael Stickland have?
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 are their strengths?
Where they really hurt you is strength (69) and jumping (68). Their strength is decent and it's the trait to build their game around.
What are they missing?
It's not all good: reading of the game (57) and marking (58). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they a good buy?
Worth around 826 K€ with 1 K€ wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
How far can they go?
They start from 61 with a ceiling of 69 — that's +8 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.
