By FAFIFA Team · updated August 2026
What role should William Grainger have?
Their place is up front as ST. Not one for running the channels: use them as a penalty-box reference to pin centre-backs, hold up play and finish inside. The game also rewards them with roles like Advanced forward, which reinforce that profile. Technically, watch their weak foot (2★): always angle them onto their strong side.
What are their strengths?
What makes them reliable: acceleration (68) and top speed (67). That decent acceleration is their signature.
What are they missing?
Their soft spots: aerial ability (50) and composure (56). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth the price?
Worth around 627 K€ with 1 K€ wages. As an investment they're among the best: give them minutes, they gain value and you end up making money on them.
How far can they go?
They start from 58 with a ceiling of 78 — that's +20 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
