📌 Complete Guide: Best Workrates for Every Position in FC Mobile.

Hello everyone,

A lot of players still choose cards only by OVR and stats, but in real gameplay, workrates decide how a player actually behaves on the pitch.

This guide clearly lists:

GOOD workrates and why?

📍 FOR EVERY POSITION .

- Especially useful for H2H, Division Rivals, and competitive play.

 

🧠 GENERAL RULE (VERY IMPORTANT)

- Attackers need attacking freedom.

- Defenders need positional discipline.

- Midfielders need role balance.

- Wrong workrates = broken positioning, stamina drain, and bad AI decisions.

 

🛡️ DEFENSIVE LINE

GK - Goalkeeper

No specific Workrate (Most goalkeepers have medium / medium)

CB – Center Back

GOOD workrates

Low / High ⭐⭐⭐

Medium / High ⭐⭐⭐

Low / Medium ⭐⭐

📌 CBs must stay back and hold shape. High attacking workrate ruins the defensive line

LB / RB – Fullbacks

GOOD workrates

High / High ⭐⭐⭐

Medium / High ⭐⭐⭐

High / Medium ⭐⭐

📌 Fullbacks must track back and support width. Low defensive workrate = free goals for opponents.

 

⚙️ MIDFIELD CORE

CDM – Defensive Midfielder

GOOD workrates

Low / High ⭐⭐⭐

Medium / High ⭐⭐⭐

Low / Medium ⭐⭐

📌 CDMs are anchors. If they attack too much, your defense collapses, same as CBs.

CM – Central Midfielder

GOOD workrates

High / High ⭐⭐⭐

High / Medium ⭐⭐⭐

Medium / High ⭐⭐

⚠️ Situational:

Medium / Medium ⭐️ (balanced formations only)

📌 CMs link defense and attack. They must move both ways.

CAM – Attacking Midfielder

GOOD workrates

High / Medium ⭐⭐⭐

High / Low ⭐⭐⭐

Medium / Medium ⭐⭐

📌 CAMs must stay advanced and creative. Defensive workrate is mostly wasted here.

LM-RM - WIDE MIDFIELDERS

GOOD workrates

High / High ⭐⭐⭐

High / Medium ⭐⭐⭐

Medium / High ⭐⭐

⚠️ Situational:

Medium / Medium ⭐️ (possession play only)

📌 LM/RM must attack AND track back. Low workrates completely kill these roles.

 

🚀  ATTACKERS

LW / RW – Wingers

✅ GOOD workrates

High / Medium ⭐⭐⭐

High / Low ⭐⭐⭐

⚠️ Situational:

High / High ⭐ (pressing systems)

📌 Wingers need attacking freedom. Defensive responsibility drains stamina and positioning.

ST – Striker

GOOD workrates

High / Medium ⭐⭐⭐

High / Low ⭐⭐⭐

Medium / Medium ⭐⭐ (false 9 only)

⚠️ Situational:

High / High ⭐️ (high pressing only)

📌 Strikers must stay high, aggressive, and ready to run — not defend.

 

🧩 SUMMARY (READ THIS)

- Bad workrates = bad AI movement (even with insane stats)

- Always match workrates with:

          •Formation

          •Role

          •Playstyle

 

Many “mid” cards become top-tier with correct workrates, and many high-OVR cards feel bad because of wrong ones. Avoid workrates that are not cited as good workrates for a position.

    So you want a strategy or economy of those rank-up points or what exactly, please explain!

  • Legend mate, nice one.. I always used to go for High as far as I can... Seems low medium is ok in some positions then.

    Top of most' wishlist:

    how to use rankup points even though variety has decreased on the new versions.

    Can you do a system and players you choose for that.. none does it in detail.

    Thanks.
