How do you play Stephen McLaughlin?
Their place is the flank, up and down the wing as LB. They suit a system that lets them get forward: they add width in attack and need cover in case they're caught out behind. They can also play LM. The game also rewards them with roles like Wingback and Falseback, which reinforce that profile.
What are their strengths?
Their weapons: acceleration (77) and top speed (72). That competent acceleration is their signature.
Do they have weaknesses?
Their weak points: slide tackling (55) and marking (55). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Are they worth the price?
Their market price sits around 177 K€, with 1 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.
What is Stephen McLaughlin's best position?
Their best position is LB, though they can also play LM.
