FC 25 PLAYER ROLES
FC 25 Player Roles enable you to pre-select how your players perform off the ball and out of possession in-game.
FC 25 Roles
Player Roles is a new addition to the game, as part of the newly introduced FC IQ. Instead of the tactics and player instructions we had until now, we now have player roles, which are responsible for pre-defining how your players perform off the ball and out of possession in-game.
What we previously called roles, which allowed us to designate the team captain and set-piece takers, are now referred to as assignments.
Due to the introduction of FC 25 Player Roles, the centre-forward, left wing-back, and right wing-back positions have been removed and evolved into Player Roles. Additionally, work rates have been eliminated, with player behavior now influenced by the selected Player Role instead.
