The Best B2B CM in the Game
By BlahKay, 16-10-2022

On the back of last year, I knew who I had to buy for my team straight up, the GOAT himself, Mikel Merino. Last FIFA he was a hidden gem, and after over 100 games I can happily say he's the same this year.


Playing him as a left CM in a 4-1-2-1-2 (2) has showed his class, with a shadow (although he can become LENGHTY with an Architect if you want) he has far outperformed most of the midfielders I have used. These midfielders include the like's of Llorente, Valverde, Tchouameni, Barella, RTTK Benaccer, De Jong, Kessie and De Bruyne, which is insane. Although Renato Sanches and POTM Valverde performed marginally better.


Anyway, as I use him as B2B his pace can't be lacking, which his isn't. Although not as good at short distance, he can effectively run up and down the field, and with 84 stamina he can make those runs for most of the game. But his standout trait is being a defensive monster, with a defending stat of 89 with a shadow, boasting great stat's with above 90 in everything but defensive awareness. This make him a Centurion when stopping a winger or covering any out of position player's in your defense. He is also effective in attack, if he's in the right position, he can score and get you that all important goal.


For 850 coins right now, this guys a steal for a starter team, stop gap or even in your Champs team. I BEG you to try him before you judge, as he is Sensational.
