Target Man
A physically strong striker who provides a central reference point in attack. Rather than relying on mobility, they specialize in aerial duels, hold-up play, and distributing the ball to teammates in advanced positions. Target Men are often involved in link-up sequences and dangerous heading situations inside the box.

False Nine
A technically skilled forward who operates between the lines and contributes heavily in buildup. False Nines drop into midfield to link play, create numerical advantages, and progress the ball through dribbling and passing rather than focusing on scoring.

Poacher
A forward primarily focused on finishing inside the box. Poachers are defined by high shot volume, strong positioning, and elite goal conversion. They are less involved in build-up or defensive work but good at finishing.

Pressing Forward
A Pressing Forward is a striker who leads the team’s defensive pressure from the front. Their main job is to disrupt the opponent’s build-up by pressing defenders and forcing mistakes.

Mobile Striker
A striker who operates with pace and movement, often attacking space behind the defense. Combines ball-carrying, dribbling, and finishing in transition phases. Compared to Poachers, they are more involved in ball progression and dynamic attacking actions.

Wide Playmaker
A creative winger who plays more like a central midfielder positioned wide. The Wide Playmaker contributes through passing range, vision, and decision-making rather than direct scoring or isolation dribbles.

Inside Forward
A goal-oriented wide player who frequently cuts inside to shoot, combine centrally, or arrive in the box. Inside Forwards combine dribbling with finishing and typically operate on the wing opposite their strong foot.

Traditional Winger
A wide attacker who is good at beating opponents through dribbling and delivering accurate crosses from wide areas. The Traditional Winger stays close to the touchline, aiming to create chances by progressing the ball and serving it into the box.

Maestro
A central playmaker responsible for dictating tempo and progressing the ball into advanced areas. The Maestro excels at creative passing actions and final-third decision-making, focusing on distributing and orchestrating rather than scoring.

Raumdeuter
An off-ball oriented playmaker who specializes in finding and exploiting unoccupied zones. Less involved in buildup or pressing, the Raumdeuter aims to appear in dangerous positions unnoticed.

Shadow Striker
An advanced attacking midfielder positioned close to the forward line, with high involvement in both scoring and chance creation. The Shadow Striker blends finishing ability with pressing contribution and ball progression.

Mobile Attacking Midfielder
A dynamic box-to-box attacking midfielder who contributes across all phases. The Mobile Midfielder combines ball-carrying, forward passing, and transitional dribbling with defensive duels and recoveries.

Ball Winning Midfielder
A defensively oriented central midfielder focused on regaining possession through tackles, interceptions, and recoveries. This role prioritizes disrupting opposition buildup and initiating transitions with defensive actions rather than advancing the ball.

Box-to-Box Midfielder
A dynamic midfielder active in all thirds of the pitch. The Box-to-Box balances defensive recovery with attacking support, contributing through dribbling, ball carrying, and progressive passing. Compared to the Ball Winner, they show higher technical involvement and offensive range.

Maestro
A technically advanced midfielder who controls the rhythm and direction of the game through passing quality and vision. The Maestro operates centrally but is primarily tasked with chance creation, progression, and dictating tempo rather than direct ball-winning.

Anchor
A positionally disciplined midfielder focused on protecting the defensive line. The Anchor excels in defensive positioning, interceptions, and second-ball recoveries, often operating as a static pivot with limited forward movement.

Regista
A deep-lying playmaker responsible for building the attack from the base of midfield. Unlike the Anchor, the Regista contributes primarily through creative and progressive passing from deep positions, with minimal defensive involvement.

Ball Winning Midfielder
A highly active midfielder whose main responsibility is to regain possession across the pitch. More mobile than an Anchor and more aggressive than a Regista, the Ball Winner operates in both halves and initiates attacks after regaining the ball.

Wing Back
An attack-oriented wide defender operating high up the pitch, typically in a back five. The Wing Back is defined by high dribbling frequency, progressive runs, and crossing actions, contributing consistently in chance creation while being less involved in deeper defensive coverage.

Two-Ways Fullback
A balanced fullback capable of contributing both defensively and offensively. This role demands high endurance and tactical flexibility, combining defensive reliability with overlaps, dribbles, and chance creation.

Defensive Fullback
A stay-at-home wide defender focused on limiting risk and protecting the flanks. Defensive Fullbacks prioritize positioning, duels, and interceptions over overlaps or offensive output, offering width only when structurally safe.

Playmaker Back
A technically gifted fullback who builds play from deep and wide zones, acting as a distributor rather than a runner. The Playmaker Back excels in accurate forward passes, ball circulation, and creative distribution — contributing more like a wide regista than an overlapping fullback.

Ball Winning Centre Back
A physically dominant and duel-focused defender whose primary task is to disrupt opposition attacks through tackles, interceptions, and aerial dominance. Contributes mainly in set pieces and plays short, simple passes to retain possession.

No-Nonsense Centre Back
A safety-first defender focused strictly on stopping attacks and clearing danger. This role minimizes risks in possession and prioritizes basic defending over ball progression.

Ball Playing Centre Back
A central defender valued for initiating build-up play through vertical passes and carrying the ball out from the back. Preferred by possession-dominant teams seeking defenders who contribute to progression.

Wide Centre Back
A more mobile centre back deployed in wider zones, often in a back three. Offers support in both defensive coverage and attacking transitions, with the ability to carry the ball forward and contribute in wide build-up.

Sweeper
A deeper-lying, reactive defender responsible for cleaning up behind the main defensive line. Combines defensive positioning with solid distribution from deep, often recycling possession and breaking press lines.

Panther
A traditional, shot-stopping goalkeeper who excels in reflex saves across all ranges. Panthers focus on saving difficult shots rather than participating in build-up or sweeping actions.

Playmaker
A modern goalkeeper who contributes directly to build-up through accurate and progressive passing. Often used by possession-oriented teams to initiate attacks from deep areas.

Sweeper Keeper
A proactive goalkeeper who operates high off the line to intercept through balls and clear danger outside the box. Focuses more on field coverage and fast restarts than refined passing.
