Franklin D. Roosevelt as a soccer player: scouting report

Franklin D. Roosevelt anchors the back line at center back, the position for the player everyone else listens to. His fireside chats on the radio reached listeners across the country in plain, calm language, and that is what the best central defenders do: talk constantly, keep the line in shape and make the people around them feel secure. Defending is the best part of his card, so the fundamentals are excellent: positioning, timing in the tackle and an instinct for where the danger is coming from.

Passing is the next best mark, which makes him a modern ball playing center back. He was a devoted stamp collector for most of his life, and that patience with small details translates into a defender who studies a striker's habits and picks the right pass out of the back instead of clearing it blindly. He was also a keen sailor from his boyhood summers at Campobello, and reading the wind is not far from reading a long ball before it drops. His physical strength gives him the presence to win headers, and he was elected president four times, more than anyone else, which suggests he knows how to win the contests that count.

Pace is the weakest mark on his card, so he should defend with positioning rather than recovery speed. Keep the line a little deeper and pair him with a quicker partner who can cover the space behind. Central midfield is a solid second spot thanks to his passing, and goalkeeper rates close to it. Draft him as the leader of your defense, and build the back four around his voice.
