Detail Review
Passing
+ This is where Scholes really stands out. His passing feels elite in-game, with insane vision, perfectly weighted through balls, and long passes that switch play effortlessly. He controls the tempo beautifully and always seems to pick the right option, playing like a true playmaker CM. (9.8/10)
Shooting
+ His long shots are unreal. With the Long Shot Taker trait, he scores screamers from outside the box very consistently. Finesse shots from the edge feel smooth when given space, though inside-the-box finishing is decent rather than elite. (9.3/10)
Defending
+ Defensive contribution is solid for a CM. With Dives Into Tackles, he puts in clean challenges and chips in with interceptions, but he’s not a true ball-winner. Best paired with a proper CDM. (8.4/10)
Weak Foot
+ His 4* weak foot is reliable enough. He can pass and shoot off either side without feeling too restricted, which helps under pressure. (8.0/10)
Stamina
+ The 5* stamina is a huge plus. He can comfortably last the full match and keeps his intensity even when pressing or controlling midfield late on. (9.3/10)
Dribbling
- His dribbling is clean and reliable but not explosive. Lane Change helps him escape pressure, and he feels tidy on the ball, but his body type means he won’t glide past defenders. Best used with quick turns and simple movements. (8.8/10)
Pace
- Pace is average. He’s not slow, but he won’t outrun aggressive midfield pressers either. Acceleration is fine, top speed is limited, so smart positioning matters more than sprinting. (8.5/10)
Physical
- Despite lower physical stats and shorter height, he doesn’t feel weak. His balance is decent and he can hold his ground at times, but stronger CDMs will push him off the ball. Aerial presence is almost nonexistent. (8.2/10)
Final Verdict
Paul Scholes 114 is a top-tier playmaking CM built for control, passing, and long shots. He’s not fast or physical, but if you want a midfield brain who dictates the game and scores bangers, he’s absolutely worth using.
