How do you get the best out of Nico González?
Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Their job is the dirty work: win the ball back, cover the full-backs when they push on and hold their position. They can also play CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Deep-Lying playmaker, which reinforce that profile.
What do they do well?
Their weapons: aggression (85), short passing (83) and stamina (80). Their aggression is elite and it's the trait to build their game around.
What are they missing?
For their role there's no weakness of note; a very well-rounded player.
Are they worth the price?
Their market price sits around 30,1 M€, with 106 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.
How much will they grow?
They start from 79 with a ceiling of 85 — 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.
