How do you get the best out of Rui Mendes?
Their place is out wide as RM. Give them the ball out wide and space to attack: they beat their marker one-on-one and look for the byline or the shot from their side. They can also play ST and RW. The game also rewards them with roles like Winger, which reinforce that profile. Technically, they cope well with their weaker foot (4★).
What do they do well?
What makes them reliable: acceleration (79) and agility (73). That reliable acceleration is their signature.
What are they missing?

Are they worth the price?
Worth around 1,1 M€ with 5 K€ wages. You pay for immediate, proven output: pricey but no surprises, they deliver now. They're also out of contract soon (2027), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
