Scout report
Ball-Playing Defender+ is a player role in FC 27 built for center backs who defend first but also start the attack from deep. It focuses on Defend, Build-Up and Aggressive play, and more than 1000 FC 27 cards carry it at + or ++.
The role asks for Defending, Build-Up Support, Defence Support, Pressure and Aggressiveness, so it suits CB cards that win duels and still pass well out of the back. On this page Franz Beckenbauer 93 CB and Rio Ferdinand 89 CB are real center backs near the top, while Pubill 89 CB, Dayot Upamecano 89 CB and Andrea Barzagli 87 CB are alternatives from other card types.
Pick it if you want an aggressive center back who steps up to press and then starts your build-up. If you prefer a purely deep-sitting defender, look at other CB roles.
