Scout report
James Roche is a Bronze CB in EA SPORTS FC 27 Ultimate Team, rated 53 overall, playing for Shelbourne in the SSE Airtricity Men's Premier Division for the Republic of Ireland. His standout trait is heading accuracy at 62, the highest of his in-game attributes, alongside a defensive profile led by DEF 55. His base rating rose from 50 in FC 26 to 53 here.
Roche fits a back-line role as a Stopper, where his defensive awareness of 52 and heading accuracy of 62 do the most work. His sprint speed of 54 helps him recover against quicker forwards, and his short passing of 52 is enough for simple distribution. Watch his attacking weaknesses: shooting at 25 and attacking positioning at 21 mean he offers little going forward.
This card suits a budget defensive option who needs a solid, aerial centre-back for a lower-tier squad. It is not a choice for players wanting attacking input from the back line.
