How to build the best football player

Your first 150 skill points decide what kind of player you become. Here is how to think about the distribution — and why no single build is best for everyone.

Start with stamina

Stamina decides how many rounds you last. Stamina 50 lasts about 12 rounds, often the whole match. A player who tires first loses — so put at least a third of your points here early, especially if you play 1v1.

Shot power and precision

Shot power sets how much energy the opponent loses per finish. Precision is driven by your strongest foot — so if you put points in shot power, make sure your strongest foot is also developed. Strong shot power with poor precision only makes partial hits.

Tackles for defence

Tackles break the opponent's attack and open counters. If you play defensively, or in 2v2/3v3 as a tackling specialist, this is your most important attribute. A good tackler can turn a match by stealing attacks and countering.

Disciplines and boots

Disciplines (cannon strikes, heavy finishing and more) decide which boot suits you. A heavier boot hits harder but needs more strength and weighs more — too heavy and you lose pace. Pick disciplines that fit your style and let gear reinforce it.

Move points as you go

No choice is permanent. Every new level grants more points, and you can adjust your build as you learn what works against real players. Start with an idea and fine-tune.
