How do you get the best out of Nick Schmidt?
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?
Their best assets are short passing (65) and long passing (60). Their short passing is weak and it's the trait to build their game around.
Where do they struggle?
Where they struggle: stamina (49) and composure (49). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth the price?
Their market price sits around 413 K€, with 2 K€ in 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 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
How much will they grow?
They start from 56 with a ceiling of 74 — that's +18 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.
