On FIFA Mobile 20, there are several formations that use CDM, the most popular and most commonly used is the 3-5-2 formation.

Important attributes for CDM players are Sprints Speed, Acceleration, Marking, Aggression, Interceptions, Stand Tackle, Sliding Tackle, and Strength. They don’t need to have good passing or shooting because they rarely show up at VSA chances. On H2H, a good Long Passing stat can be quite helpful, especially for counter attacks.

The best Skill Boosts for CDM players are Destroyer, Holding, Long Passing, and Interceptions.

    Why icon Gattuso is not the list? He is an ankle breaker CDM. He is very aggressive also. I am 100 percent happy with him. I would recommend him.

      Raheem Sterling is a decent RW, a faster one is always better imo.
      Romagnoli is a very slow CB, there are far better CBs out now.

      Romagnoli is decent and will also have very good chem if you have Donnarumma as your goalkeeper. As for Sterling, he is ok but has a bad weak foot rating and for a 93 rated player, he could have better stats. I would go against Sterling.

    I consider LNY Ndidi as the best CDM in EPL better than Kante and Fabinho…he is everywhere on the pitch winning the ball back

    As carniball is here and I plan to get Quadrado and De vrij and I have got a Italy player from masquerade + I can obviously buy the 88 OVR Italy carniball player from market, I can get 4 Serie A players. I also have already 4 Serie A players.
    So should I try getting Petit or buy a low OVR player and train up.
    I already have 93 Kante
    I currently use 433 attack but want to shift to 433 defend as I am a fifa master in H2H and want to play a defensive strategy.
