Marcus Linday 69

Marcus Linday is a Silver CDM in EA SPORTS FC 27 Ultimate Team, rated 69 overall, and he can also be played at CM. He is listed at sc Heerenveen in the Eredivisie on the Sweden nation line. His standout traits are physicality, with 77 PHY, and his stamina of 84.

Linday suits a Holding role as a defensive midfield anchor, where his 64 DEF, 77 PHY and strength of 79 let him win duels and screen the back line. His short passing of 71 and balance of 71 help him keep possession and recycle the ball. Watch his weaker attributes: crossing of 49, curve of 43 and free kicks of 41 limit his use beyond the holding job.

Linday is a practical choice for a budget-minded FUT squad that needs a physical, hard-working holding midfielder. He is less suited to players who want a creative or set-piece taker.
