What role should Ross Barkley have?
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 CAM. The game also rewards them with roles like Box-to-Box and Playmaker, which reinforce that profile. Technically, their 4★ skill moves give them options in one-on-ones and both feet are equally good (5★ weak foot).
What are you buying?
Their weapons: short passing (81), composure (81) and long passing (80). Their short passing is notable and it's the trait to build their game around.
Where do they struggle?
Their weak points: reading of the game (59). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Their market price sits around 14,6 M€, with 103 K€ in wages. Worth it as a one-season stopgap; don't expect to resell high. And with a contract until 2027, you have leverage to bring the price down.
