Nico Schlotterbeck has been one of the best center backs in the world this season, and last season had an incredible breakout. However on Dortmund, he's only got the ability to be the 3rd best on the team? never mind best in the league
.
Here's his stats from FBref for the last 365 days vs his in game stats
He's an incredible ball progressing centre back whos consistently involved in the offensive third, and that isnt reflected in his technicals , and at 13 heading, he's being a bit undersung. He needs a stat boost to be closer at the very least to the llevel of his counterparts at Dortmund, and elsewhere in the Bundesliga.
for comparison here are Niklas Sule's stats and in game attributes
One thing to note here is that Schlotterbeck completed over 2x more successful dribbles per game, and was much more involved in the offensive third in xG xA and shot creating actions, yet its reflected that he's a worse/equal player in the specific areas he excels in.
Additionally Reus is overrated, especially compared to Haller coming off of a Eridivise and dutch golden boot.
For the record I am a Union fan, I was just disappointed to see a top German talent be so undervalued.
I hope this is changed before the game is released, otherwise even if I'm managing in another league entirely, I'll be boosting him myself in the editor.
