Picked Schweni up for just under 600k at the time, and have played around 300-400 games with him in squad. A very reliable midfield option imo!

Played at CDM with a shadow chem to start, to really make the most of his defensive capabilities whilst giving the pace a nice boost! Solid, reliable and outstanding passing ability - easily the best passer of the ball I've used so far this year. His long range shots are pretty nutty too, being able to hit a shot through a deep-set defence and having it nestle in the top bin is incredibly satisfying. Overall a very well rounded CDM - 8/10.

Recently started playing Schweni as a BtB midfielder more recently however, and discovered just how enjoyable it is to use this card. An engine chem really rounds out his dribbling and feels much silkier on the ball. His passing is unrivalled, short, long, over the top, through the lines, down the wing, he can do it all. Great option for BtB CM - 9/10.

Overall a very reliable midfield option, for 380k at the time of writing, you could certainly do a lot worse! He is by no means super meta, some will dislike and others will love. But this Schweni card is great fun in the right set up. This late into the game, his base card stats for pace and dribbling are starting to show slightly, he can be a little clunky at times compared to other cheaper options, pace is never an issue but always feels like he could do a lot more if he was faster off the ball. A solid 8.5/10 icon for the price.

Passing ability is top tier
Shooting from distance is fantastic
Solid defensively (but by no means a monster)
This man can run for days
Reliable performer - maybe 1 mistake in 300/400 games
Price - you could spend your coins in worse ways!

Dribbling can feel a little clunky at times, but an engine chem definitely helps!
Pace isn't awful but you just get the feeling he could be so much better with even a +5 pace on base stats
Very rare shooting animation were he pushes the ball a yard or two ahead, then takes 15 years to run up and strike the ball
