Nemanja Matic

[Shteffyyy]

I think he is so underrated in this game.. I play him as a DLP on defend (which is his preferred role) but very rarely he gets a rating over 6.8
What do you think about him?

Completely agree. Then you get someone like Phil Jones who can play there and his stats are so OP its ridiculous, then you see him IRL... Hopefully on an update such as LFC Marshall's he is much better as he is probably the best DM in the world

His stats are amazing, easily one of the best CDMs in the game.

He did very well for me at CDM (Roaming Playmaker Support) - signed for MUFC from Chelsea at start of third season for only GBP 7mil

Don't forget that at DLP Defend he isn't likely to get many assists/key passes nor goals - a very important factor in how the engine gives ratings.

Example: I have Pogba at CM Support - ratings very good but not 8.5 every game. But when I watch extended highlights I see how important he is at winning the ball and building up play. Same with Matic.

Think of a striker who is useless all game getting 6.7, then scores a late tap in goal and ends on 7.8.

Anchor Man is probs the best role to use him.
