S. Nicholson is a wide player at Motherwell FC (64 overall, RM) — poor at that. At 30 they're a present-day asset: proven level and leadership for the dressing room. Above all they stand out for their acceleration (85).
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
Their place is out wide as RM. They work by stretching the pitch and attacking the full-back one-on-one; the more isolated with their marker, the better. They can also play LM and RW. The game also rewards them with roles like Winger and Winger, which reinforce that profile. Technically, watch their weak foot (2★): always angle them onto their strong side.
Their weapons: acceleration (85), agility (85) and top speed (81). Their acceleration is top-tier and it's the trait to build their game around.
Their weak points: curve (52) and crossing (56). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Their market price sits around 679 K€, with 2 K€ in wages. Worth it as a one-season stopgap; don't expect to resell high. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
Their best position is RM, though they can also play LM and RW.
They're already at their ceiling (64): at their age the rating won't rise.
Their market value is around 679 K€, with 2 K€ wages.
Their dribbling is 62 — weak for their position.
