What role should Ryan McGowan have?
Their place is the heart of the defence as CB. A pure centre-back: pair them with a quick one if they lack top speed, and use their aerial dominance at set pieces. They can also play CDM and CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Wide back and Stopper, which reinforce that profile.
What do they do well?
Their best assets are strength (80) and aerial ability (69). That notable strength is their signature.
What are they missing?
Where they struggle: slide tackling (62) and top speed (48). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Their market price sits around 271 K€, with 2 K€ in wages. At their age their value only drops: negotiate and don't tie a long contract. They're also out of contract soon (2026), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
