The Best CDM in the Game

Last updated April 19, 2022

CDM stands for Central Defensive Midfielder. This position is part of the Midfield Players, but with more defensive tasks. This position is in front of Center Backs (CB) and is behind Central Midfielder (CM) or Central Attacking Midfielder (CAM).

In a team, CDM positions can be filled by one or two players, depending on the strategy to be implemented.

On FIFA Mobile 22, 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 Holding and Interceptions.

Here are the best CDM players in FIFA Mobile 22.

    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.

      De Jong for more attacking and passing, Busquets for defending. In my opinion De jong is better.

      de Jong is a good CDM in H2H if you don’t mind his passing skill boost. Busquets is better for VSA as he had destroyer skill boost.

      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.

    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.

      We will. It’s just that the Carniball players are still new, not many players use it in the game so we haven’t collected much feedback about their gameplay.

        I compared 95 Coquelin vs 95 McKennie. And they are pretty the same. Now i have 95 McKennie.
        It’s worth to upgrade Coquelin and replace McKennie, or it’s worthless ?
