Billy Mitchell 71

Billy Mitchell is a Silver 71 overall CDM in EA SPORTS FC 27 Ultimate Team, playing for Sheffield Wed in the EFL League One for England. His standout trait is a strong physical and defensive base, with PHY 71 and DEF 67 on the card, and his base rating has risen from 68 in FC 26.

He suits the CDM role, and can also be played at CM, in a Holding role where his defensive numbers do the most work. His stamina of 80, short passing of 71 and reactions of 71 support a steady, ball-retaining midfield pivot. Watch his weaker attributes, particularly long shots at 53, heading accuracy at 52 and free kicks at 42, so he is best used for control rather than scoring or set pieces.

This card is for players who want an affordable, durable Silver holding midfielder for a defensive or possession-based squad, and who do not need goals or set-piece quality from the position.
